M. M. 1. CADETS SOLVE LABW
PROBLEM.

Three carloads of coal consigned
to the Millersburg Military Insti-
tute, were sidetracked near the sta
ton at Millersburg, for unloading
Efforts to secure negro laborers and
vehicles to unload the coal proved
unavailing, despite the lure of finan-
cial considerations.
Learning of the desperate situation
and in view of the fact that the coal
was badly needed for heating the in
stitution, nineteen husky cadets dis
carded immaculate uniforms, donned
cid clothes. and with gloves and
shovels secured from various SQUIRE
es, made concerted attack on the
coal cars. Going over the top In
most approved military fashion, they
unloaded the precious black dia-
mOnds into waiting wagons. Ac-
companied by squad of cadet-coal
beavers the wagons, as fast az
loaded, were driven to the NJ. M. L.,
where they were unloaded into the
cellars. This was kept up until the
three cars of coal had been safety de-
posted in the cellars.
When the job was completed the
cadets washed up. donned their uni
forms and went about their rou-
tine school work just as if shovel
ing coal had been a regular part OF
the days work.

GREAT COAL STRIKE IS NOW
I SETTLED,

The strike of 100000 bituminous
coal miners of the country was set
tied at Indianapolis, Wednesday,
when the general committee of the
United Mine Workers of America
agreed to accept the plan offered by
President Wilson. ~
John c. Keegan, of the United
States Employees Compensation Com
mission, advised Secretary Tumulty
at the White House that Secretary
Green, of the miners union, had in
formed him over the long distance
telephone from Indianapolis that the
Presidents proposal for settlement
of the bituminous coal strike had
been accepted.
Mr.. Keegan said he had arranged
with Secretary Green to call him
over the special telephone wire the
instant the miners had acted finally.
He went to the White House early
to await word from Indianapolis.

CHRISTMAS SEAL CAMPAIGN
PROGRESSING NICELY

Following the intensive three
days campaign of last week in the
interest Of the Red Cross Christmas
Seals in this city, the workers have
been busy in making sales of the
little stickers that are calculated to
bring help to some suffering people
Good results have been obtained in
the work, which is being done under
the supervision of Mrs. Jas. Duncan
Bell, Chairman for this city and
county.
The disagreable weather of the
past few days has interfered to some
extent with the progress of the
work, but the enthusiasm of the
workers soon made UP for that in re-
newed efforts. The block system has
been finished, under the direction of
Mrs. Milton C. Browning, and sell
ing stations will be established in
the banks, postoffice, courthouse and
other public places. School children
have been enlisted in the campaign
this week, and their efforts have
been rewarded with success in the
shape of large sales.
Sub-chairmen will help in the
work the remainder of the week.
under the direction of Mrs.
Bell, as follows: Mrs. George W.
Clay was chairman of the committee
of workers yesterday; Mrs. Buckner
Woodford will be chairman to-day,
and Mrs. Thos. Henry Clay, Jr.,
chairman tomorrow.
One of the features of the cam
paign has been the issuance and
selling of Health and Welfare
League Bonds in denominations of
$500 to 500. These bonds have
been taken by large number of
Paris merchants and others, but. as
the committees have not yet submit
ted full report the list is incom-
plete. Among those who have sub
scribed and are now on the Honor
Roll are Frank & Co., The ]. T. Hin
ton Co., The Paris Milling Co., The
Deposit and Peoples Bank & Trust
Co., William Shire, w. A. Allen,
Nellie Highland, A. F. Wheeler Fur
niture Co., Rudolph Davis, Frank P.
Kiser, Catesby Spears, James Cald-
well and Bruce Miller.
The drive will come to conclu-
sion on December "a, Christmas
Eve. Twenty-Five per cent. of the
proceeds will go to the State Tuber-
culosis Commission, and seventy-five
per cent. to the Bourbon County
Health and Welfare League. Mrs.
Bell urges the public to make liberal
subscriptions to the fund, SO that
Bourbon county may proudly take
her place in the list Of those marked
Quota oversubscribed." Buy a
Health Bond for the sake of helping
those in distress, and thereby make
your own Christmas a happier one
for having contributed to the aid of
others.
While a special effort is being
made to further the sales of the
Health Bonds, the workers will be
glad to have sales of the Seals in
any amount you may desire, from
one to a hundred or more. Every

CAMPAIGN FOR FUNDS MASSIE
MEMORIAL HOSPITAL.

The people of the city and county
have been very generous in their
response to recent appeals made for
donations to the larder of the Mas
sic Memorial Hospital, in this city.
The hospital authorities and those
charged with the management and
financing of the institution have
been duly appreciative and thank
full that this has been a generous
community, instantly responsive to
every call for a humane project.
But the institution, one of the very
worthiest in our midst, needs funds
for necessary and very urgent pur-
poses. Unless other means can be
found to raise this money, an inten-
sive campaign will soon be conduct
ed in the county for that purpose.
There is hardly man, woman or
child in this community who would
tor an instant fail to give full
credit to the Massie Memorial Hos
pital for the good it has accom-
plished here. The quality of mercy
has never been strained there. All
have been given careful and consci-
entious attention. The practical
value of such an institution to this
community can hardly be estimated.
But the need of funds for its proper
conduct can be estimated, in dollars
and cents. There was never a time
when there was so much money in
this county, and it is a time for more
generous giving, giving that knows
no stint, no color line, no class, no
other object than in helping tC
maintain the MaSSie Memorial Hos
pital.
Think this over carefully, people
of Bourbon county, and help the
Hospital all you can. Who will be
the first to come forward with a
contribution? Big or little, great
or small, white or colored, start the
movement and keep it rolling until
the hospital people tell you there is
no room for more. De We make our
meaning clear?
AS instancing how the generosity
OF one man has benefited public
institutions Of the same character as
the Massie Memorial Hospital the
following requests were recently
made in the will of the late Henry
c. Prick, the Pittsburg steel mag
nate: Pittsburg institutions to re-
ceive requests amounting to about
100000 each are Allegheny Gen
-eral Hospital, Mercy Hospital.
Western Pennsylvania Hospital,

Cottage State Hospital, Councils
vile; West Moreland Hospital,

mortal Hospital, Mount Pleasant;

exceeding the speed limit. Mr..
Finley appeared without council.

consent of the court delayed pro-
ceedings by going in search of

spectators waited without re-
freshments. He returned with
out the ordinance, but the trial
proceeded.
Mr.. Brady being the first wit
ness testified that MIR. Finley
drove from ZiegIers store to the
Western Garage at the rate Of
twenty miles an hour. He was
then asked what time Mr.. Finley
consumed in making this dis
tance. He answered by saying
that the time was 30 seconds.
Mr.. Finley's witnesses, six ia

only driving at an ordinary rate
