PURPLE CROSS PETITIONS TO BE
CIRCULATED

With the view of inducing Con-
gress at its next session to pass a
measure making an appropriation
for the organization of The Purple
cross, the object of which is to en-
balm the bodies of American
soldiers killed in the European war
and returning them to this country
as 500 as the war is over. petitions
will be in circulation in this city and
county within the next few DAYS.
Local undertakes have received a
number of the blank petitions au-
dressed to Hon. Champ Clark,
SPEAKER of the House of Representa-
tives at Washington, which will be
circulated here for signatures. The
plan is being backed by some of the
most influential and prominent men
of the United States, and if the
measure goes through Congress it is
assured that the bodies of American
soldiers who lose their lives on the
battlefields of Europe will be return
ed to their native land for inter-
ment. And it is not altogether like
ly that some of them will be from
Bourbon county, for when "our
boys get there, nothing short of
death will stop them in going over
the top"

U. S. MARSHAL REPORTS MOON
SHINING ON BOOM.

That moonshining will increase
even in the face of the watchful-
ness Of the government officers, fol-
lowing the ban placed on the man
ufacture of liquor in the distilleries
of the country, is the opinion of Dep
uty United States Marshal George
Sizemore of Hazard en- route to Lon
don to attend Federal Court. The
price of moonshine liquors, according
to Sizemore, has advanced to such an
extent that the production of the
intoXicant is certain to have a very
alluring effect and it is his belief
that in few months, is spite of the
efforts of the revenue men, the
mountains will be bristling with
stills.
Sizemore says in making the most
recent arrests of men charged with
moonshining he has found that they
charged as high as 81 quart for
the product of the illicit stills and
until the moonshiners are captured
they do thriving business. He was
on his way to London to appear as
a witness in several cases and was
by Deputy Collector ].

One Of the means Of building up
shipping to meet the submarine men
ace is the construction of vessels of
reinforced concrete, in the same way
that skyscrapers are built. Such
building are being done in England,
Norway and the United States. So
far they are mostly of small size.
Norway has launched several of
1000 tons. Lloyd's is willing to in
sure this type of ship up to 500 tons
lightweight capacity. A peculiar
feature of the Norwegian construc-
ton is that the hulls are launched
bottom up, and righted in the water
after further work has been done
on them. The leading drawback Of
the concrete ship seems to be it's
weight.
