Rupert Julian consigned him in the

personal characteristics of the vainest
and cruelest man on earth, but set

.he entire satisfaction of every one
who is not prohting by his depravity,
moral and physical.
Rupert Julian's studied physical
likeness to the mad dog Of Europe
was a startling and clever piece Of
work, but the way in which the story
Of the Kaiser's intrigues and deter
mination to take Europe by surprise
IS intertwined with fictitious story
,entering around blacksmith Of
Louvain is still more clever. For the
picture never becomes a war picture
in the accepted sense. There are no
battles, no slaughter, no hospitals.
Yet all those are definitely implied by
the intense struggle of the little
group of stricken Belgians and com
mands Of the imperious court of the
Hohcnzollern.

PUT U. S. IN CONTROL or
RIVER FACILITIES, SAYS ROE
General Manager Of the Louisville and
Cincinnati Packet Company Fa-
yors Government Ownership
OF River Lines.

The Cincinnati Enquirer says: AS
sorting that both freight and passen-
ger traffic on the Ohio River is in
creasing, w. e. Roe, General Manager
and Treasurer OF the Louisville and
Cincinnati Packet Company, said Sat
urday he favors Government owner
ship of the river facilities of the coun-
try. The cost of adequate terminals
is more than individuals can afford,
Mr.. Roe said, but can be met with
Government funds.
Mr.. Roe believes the revival of the
river traffic by the Government and
the consequent competition with the
railroads would cause reduction in
railroad freight rates to which resi-
dents Of the Ohio Valley now are sub
jected.
In support of his belief, Mr.. Roe
cited the action taken some time ago
by the citizens of Kansas City, Mo-, in
petitioning the river interests to OPP
crate boat line between that city and
st. Louis The running of boats daily
between the two cities resulted i'm
medlately in a reduction of railroad
freight rates, Mr. Roe said, and sew
eral subsequent reductions were
made. While the operation OF his
boat line entaIled losses during the
first few months, 1t is now paying
expenses and a profit and has fixed a
permanent limit to soaring railroad
freight rates, Mr.. Roe asserted.
Cincinnati manufacturers and
wholesalers who are interested in fur
nishing materials OF various kinds for
the new Government cantonment at
Stithton, KY, on the lower Ohio River,
have been informed, through the
Chamber of Commerce, that an Evans
vile transportation company is pre-
pared to put into service, between
Louisville and Stithon, a steamboat
line as soon as shipments of freight
from Cincinnati to the new camp JUS
tify the commissioning of boats.

CROPS BEGINNING
TO FIRE FOR NEED
OF GOOD RAINS
Tobacco WOrming and Topping 0ccu-
pied the Attention of the Farmers
In This Section Last Week.

The week just closed was a rather
slow one on the farms of Mason and
adjoining counties. There was little
work done in the growing crops as
the farmers have things in pretty
good condition and they are waiting
for a good rain.
Topping and worming tobacco was
about the extent of the farmers ac-
tivity. Some of the soil tillers were
hauling their grain into market and
others were engaged in bailing their
straw. 1t is said that probably more
straw will be bailed in this and adj
Joining counties this season than ever
before.
The farmers from all sections of
Mason county report the need of a
good rain. Corn has begun to suffer
for rain and in some places both corn
and tobacco have begun to "hre" to
some extent. The tobacco crop could
do without rain for some little time
yet without being greatly injured but
corn must have rain in very short
time or 1t will be seriously damaged.
There have been no activities in
stock or lands this week. While there
have been some few transfers of land
there have been no large deals.
The labor situation steadily grows
more serious and Saturday several
farmers left word at the Maysville
Chamber of Commerce asking that
they be furnished with tenants.

UNABLE TO EXPLAIN HORNS
Scientists at Z Loss to Account for
Growth Which Sometimes Ap-
pears on Head OF Horse.

One of the strahgest freaks of ma
ture Is the horse with horns. Such
horses are foaled occasionally, and
have provided q rich field of specula.
tion for scientists. Certainly the pres
ence of the horns would seem to indi.
cate that In some far-away period this
animal was so provided by nature.
In most cases where horses have
been foaled with horns, the horns were
upon the forehead, and usually three
or four inches long. But a colt near
Rogersville, Tenn, the existence Of
which is on record, had curved horn
just below the aperture Of the right
eye. This Is approximately the same
position from which sprout the horns
Of many animals whose horns have a
full growth.
Despite this evidence Of return to
some earlier state Of development, no
trace Of their presence can be found
on any Of the skulls Of horses which
belonged to other ages. Thousands
Of these skulls have been uncovered
In many lands. The oldest goes back
just 100000 years, and Is Of q size
to indicate that the horse Of that time
was no larger than a good-sized dog.

GEORGE PAYNE
LOSES RIGHT ARM

Tuesday afternoon Georg, Payne
met with an accident which has cost
him his right arm and leaves him In
critical condition at Denver hos.
pital fighting an uphill battle for
his life.
On tuesday afternoon his arm was
caught in the belt of threshing ma
chine and before the engine could be
stopped he had been dragged around
and twisted so that when he was cut
from the machine, 1t seemed that he
must be dead.
He was brought to town, where
DR.. Smirl administered temporary re-
lief and prepared to rush the injured
man to Denver for hospital treat
ment
II was apparent from the start
that the right arm would probably
have to be sarificed, while bad cut
on the head made ii a difficult II not
impossible thing for him to save his
life.
OF course the trip to Morgan via
automobile was severe stran on him
but George has a strong constitution,
has never dissipated, and this will
stand him in good stead.
Word from Denver today says that
the arm has been taken off and that
his condition is critical.
