Mason County Man Recently Reported
As Being Dead In France Had Been
In the Service For Six Years
Was One Of Pershing's
Original Crusaders.

More definite information has come
to hand about Sergeant John w.
Thomas, of this city, who few days
ago was reported as dying in France
from wounds.
Young Mr.. Thomas was the son of
]. NJ. Thomas, of this city. He is sur
vived by two sisters, Miss Bette
Thomas, of Chicago and Mrs. Glenn
mic Slack, of the county, besides one
brother, Mr.. Weaden Thomas. of
Lewis county. He is a nephew of Mrs

Mexican border with this body of sol
diers. He was in the first company OF
American soldiers to cross with Cen
eral Pershing and had twice before

HEALTH AUTHORITIES ARE
GUARDING AGAINST DISEASE
County Health Officer and All Physi-
sicians Unite in Keeping Their
Eyes Open to Check Any Start
of n Spanish Influenza
Epidemic.

The Spanish Influenza epidemic
which is sweeping over the country
Just at this time has so far been kept
out of Maysville and Mason county
and County Health officer ]. S. Locke
and all of the county and city physi-
clans have united in an endeavor to
keep the epidemic out of the county.
Every case of la grippe in the city
and county is being watched very
closely and the first indication
this disease which is playing so much
havoc in the army environments will
be reported and every precaution to
stop its spread will be taken.
There are many cases of la grippe
in the city and county but none of the
physicians have reported them as be-
ing of such a serious nature as to
think that they might develope into
influenza and then into pneumonia of
which many are dying in all parts of
the country.
The several cases of typhoid fever
and the several cases of scarlet fever
in the county are being watched very
closely and physicians report that
each case is doing as well as could be
expected.

COLORED PASTOR CHOSEN
SUNDAY SCHOOL HEAD
Rev. +. s. Delaney, Pastor Of the Col.
Ored Methodist Church, Is Highly
HOnored BY Being Chosen
Sunday School
Secretary.

Bishop Anderson, of the Colored
Methodist church in this district, has
advised Rev. F.. s. Delaney, pastor of
the Scott Chapel M. e. Church of this
city, that he has been appointed Sun
day Secretary of the Colored Meth
odist church in this district and is
expected to assume his new duties in
the immediate future.
Rev. Delaney's headquarters will be
In Chicago, ILL.,, and he will be re-
quired to go there to take up his new
work within the next few days. Next
Sunday will be his last Sunday as
pastor of the local church and it is
expected the building will be crowded
to its capacity at each service.
The local colored Methodist church
has had no more popular pastor in
recent years than Rev. Delaney. He
is young and enthusiastic, resource
full and a hard worker Under his
pastorate the local church has pro-
crossed better than under any pasto-
rate within twenty-five years and, of
course, the members of the church are
loathe to give him up but they join
with all of his friends in congratulate
ing him upon the new appointment
which is quite a promotion and gives
him much broader fields of labor.

DRAFT DRAWING
STARTS ON MONDAY
Master Numbers TO Determine Order
Of Service Of Drafted Men to BE
Drawn Monday.

Washington, September 18--Draw-
ing Of the master numbers which will
determine the order in their respec-
tive classes of the 100000 men who
registered for military service Sep
TENDER IL will begin at noon next
Monday and continue without inter-
ruption until the 1900 capsules have
been taken from the bowl. Officials
estimate that the drawing will require
26 hours.
Because of the classification system
this drawing-the third since the ma
ton went to war-will not have the
significance that attached to the first
lottery last year when order numbers
we're assigned 100000 men, Unless
the War Department changes It's plan
of calling registrants and invades the
deferred classifcations, the numbers
to be drawn will affect only those men
of the new draft ages who are physi-
cally fit for military service and are
not given deferment because of de-
pendents or occupation.
This number has been estimated at
100000, but all of these will not be
affected Immediately, since the de-
partment has determined to call first
men between 10 and 81. Men between
81 and as will next be called, but
there has been no indication when
that will be. For the youths of IS
students army training corps, now
organizing at 400 universities and
colleges, will be open.
In announcing the date of the draw
ing, General Crowder said that only
the first 100 numbers will be tele
graphed over the country. The others
will be mailed to the district draft
boards, as the drawing proceeds and
will be made public by the boards as
rapidly as they are received.
