GREAT LECTURE
On ''The Devil and The Kai.
SER To Be Repeated
Sept. 10.

Lincoln J. Mcconnell, the lecturer
who made such a hit in June with his
lecture, "The Devil and The Kaiser, "
has been induced to return to Hop
kinsville and repeat the lecture next
Monday night. AT the time he spoke,
local conditions interfered and his
crowd was small. This time he speaks
at the Tabernacle and larger crowd
is provided for and the universal de-
sire of those who missed before will
no doubt make the attendance vsry
large. The lecture is a wonderful
presentation of war conditions and
Mr.. Mcconnell is an orator of the

Prosperity---Cigaret Habit
Growing Among Women.

Washington, Sept. 5.-All previous
American records for consumption of
whisky, cigars, cigarets and tobacco
apparently went by the boards during
the past fiscal year. The prelimin-
airy report Of Commissioner Of In
ternal Revenue Osborn covering the
twelve months ended June 80, made
public, shows record tax collections
on these and other articles.
Here are the grand totals of pro-
duction upon which taxes were paid:
Distilled spirits from every source;
rye, corn, wheat, apples, peaches,
pears, pineapples, oranges, apricots,
berries, figs and cherries, 1874, 665, 246
gallons. an increase of 26, 600, 900 gal
Ions overthe previous year, yielding
tax return of $1S6. 569, 055; cigars Of
all descriptions and weight 9,216, 901,-
113-approximately 80 per capita = as
compared with 2l,OS7, 757, rs, an in
crease of more than 40 per cent.
Tobacco, chewing and smoking, 445,-
563, 206 pounds, an increase of 28,-
500, 1000 pounds.
Even snuff went TO apparent new
high levels of production with IS, 477,-
Isl pounds, an increase of 1900, 600
pounds in the year. The return to
the government in taxes on cigars,
cigarets, tobacco and snuff was $103,-
POI, 592, an increase of approximately
SIS, 600, 900, or 18 per cent. over the
previous year. The record figures
indicate great nationwide prosperity,
officials state, and in the case of Gig
arets, tremendous growth of the
habit among women.
The production Of beer while ex-
ceeding that of the previous year,
fell considerably below the high rec
ord of 66,OO0,OOO barrels in 1914.
Taxes were paid last year on 60, 729, :

AUSTRIA CRYING "HELP p'

From Riga to the east of Uxkul the
Russians continue in full retreat be-
fore the Germans, those from the
evacuated fort and arsenal making
their way northward along the coast
of the gulf of Riga, and those from
UxkuI and vicinity endeavorirg to
reach the Riga-Pskoff- Petrograd rail-
way line.
Behind them the Russians left Riga
partly afame as the result of the Ger
man shells hurled into the town, while
the smouldering ruins of small villa
ges mark the path over which the 9TH
er contingents have passed, having
been set on fire during the retreat.
Along the eastern coast of the Gulf
of Riga for a distance of about 80
miles north of the evacuated town,
German warships are shelling various
towns, possibly with the intention Of
covering a landing of troops, whose
object will be to cut off the retreat
of the Riga army or turn its flank,
thereby entirely clearing the gulf
shore region and giving Prince Leo
pold of Bavaria a base, possibly at
Pernau, whence to operate overland
in conjunction with the naval forces
toward Reval, RusSia's principal port
on the Gulf of Finland, in an endeav-
or to seal up the Russian feet inside
the gulf.
While the Russians were knocking
at the gates Of Riga from the west and
southwest, hurting shells Of all cali
bers and tossing gas waves against
the town, loyal Russian troops held
them back long enough to blow up
the Notifications at the mouth of the
Dvina and raise the bridges over the
waterway.
Meanwhile, however, it is reported
that cry Of distress has been sent to
the Germans by the Austrians, asking
for men to aid in holding back the
Italian advance. AS result of this
appeal it is reported that Field Mar
shall Won Hindenburg has sent two Ba-
varian divisions to the Isonzo front
and that the Germans are also hasten
ing the manufacture of guns for the
protection of the Hermada heights,
the key to Triest.
Although the infantry activity has
come to a pause, the Italians have
paid their respects to PoIa, Austria's
big naval base on the Adriatic, by air.
Nine tons of explosives have been
dropped on warships in the roadsted
and on military works, causing great
damage.
Field Marshal Haig continues TO
pound the German positions in Flan-
ders with rain of shells and another
big push against the German lines
seems imminent.
Intensive air raiding has been car.
ried out by the British, French and
German aviators. For the third dav
in succession the Germans have
bombed the southeastern English
coast, in their last raid having pene-
trated the London district, where ex-
plosives were loosed. The Germans
have also dropped bombs in the re-
gion of Calais and Dunkirk in France
while British and French airmen have
effectively bombed German positions
