NAN KILLED BY TRAIN AT CAR
Isle.

Add CHM, an aged farmer of Mich
olas county, was struck and killed
by the early L. & N. train from
Maysville, at Carlisle, Wednesday
morning. The accident occurred at
the Dorseyville crossing in that city.
The train, which runs between
Maysville, Paris, Lexington and LOU
isville, was approaching the passen-
ger station in Carlisle, when the I'M
fortunate man, who was about three
hundred yards north of the station,
misjdging the speed, attempted to
cross to the other side. CHM was
somewhat deaf, and it is thought
that he did not hear the warning
whistle sounded by the engineer. He
was knocked down and instantly
killed, his body being badly mangled.
When the train, which was in
charge of Engineer Tom Rice and
Conductor E. r. Thompson, reached
Paris, about thirty minutes after the
accident, section men and yardmen
found a piece of the victims skull,
with a patch of gray hair clinging
to it, hanging to the cowcatcher of
the engine.

CHRISTIAN CHURCH DRIVE FOR
$25, 900, 900

Patriots among the Disciples of
Christ. otherwise known as the
Christian Church or Christian Broth
erhood, have inaugurated drive for
s25,OOO,000 to be applied to an ex-
tensive plan of practical American
ization. Through the Christian
AUGMENTATION problems occupying
three months has been completed
and the original plan to raise l.
5000 for the extension of the In
ternational Bible College at Mime
apolis, Mimi, grew into a project to
raise the larger sum. -.
This became necessary when IL
was decided to equip chain of edu-
cational institutions extending from
coast to coast, including central
AUGMENTATION university and to
begin the process of Americanization
with newly arrived immigrants at
the principal ports of entry. This In
addition to pursuing work among
the 4O,OOO,000 persons now in the
United States who speak foreign
languages.
The AmericanizatiOn houses in the
interior cities will take up the prob
lem of the foreigners now in the
slums of the large centers, offering
day and night classes of more ad-
'yanced nature than those for the
newcomers, but developed along the
same lines with Christian citizen
ship as the goal.
II is the aim of the Christian
Americanization Association to es-
tablish an Americanization CLUB In
every Christian Brotherhood churcn
to aid in the campaign.
Rev. A. n. McCallum, of Seattle
Wash, is president of the Assocla-
ton and Judge M. c. Tiff, of Mime
apolis, is treasurer. Headquarters
| have been established at S29-SoO
Monadnock Building, Chicago. ana

cations are now in process of forma-

ARMISTICE DAY VERY QUIETLY
OBSERVED HERE.

With the exception of the banquet
and reception given by the Bourbon
Post American Legion and exercises
held at the Paris High School build
ing Tuesday, there was no observ-
ance of Armistice Day by set pro-
gram. Nearly all the business
houses were closed in the afternoon,
in response to a published proclama-
ton issued by Mayor January.
The banks and schools also observ-
ed the day as a half-holiday. There
was no demonstration of any kind,
but there was an undercurrent OF
gratitude and Joy in remembrance
of the significance Of the day, and a
feeling of sadness in memory OF
those who had given their lives In
defense of human liberty.
At the High School an appropriate
program was rendered at ten o'clock
Tuesday morning, the pupils joining
in singing patriotic songs, and exer-
cises being given by the children in
some grades. Miss Reba Lockhart,
of the High School faculty, presided,
and pleased the audience with reci-
tation suited to the occasion. DR.. E.
E. Snoddy, Of Pennsylvania College,
Lexington, made an appropriate ad-
dress, delighting all who had the
pleasure of hearing him. The music
was in charge of Miss Ella Blanding.

GAME SEASON OPENS IN COUNTY
TOMORROW.

Tomorrow, Saturday, November
Is, will be great day for the
hunters of Bourbon county. On
that day the nimrods will take to
the field with dog and gun after Bob
White and the rabbits, which in
some neighborhOods are fairly plen-
tiful and in others are scarce, but
which always afford good sport.
For the first time since the de-
structive winter of 1918, when 50
much game persisted under the ice
and snow, or died of starvation, the
birds and rabbits are reported fairly
plentiful.
The war, which worked havoc with
mankind, proved boon to the birds
and animals of the State which pro-
vide the hunters quarry, as 1T took
away to France thousands of the
young men who made up the army
of Kentucky sportsmen. With these
out of the way the quail have had .
chance to recover from the inroads
of the disastrous winter. The mild
weather last winter was another aid
to them, and reports from the State
are that considerable game can be
found.
The quail season in Kentucky
starts November Is and closes jan
uary 1. The rabbit season is the
same. There is no limit to the rab-
bit bag" but the hunter must not
bring down more than twelve quail
at one shooting. The duck season
started September 16 and will close
December 81. Twenty-Five is the bag
limit. Squirrel may be hunted any
year from July 1 to December 16 and
jack snipe from September 16 to De-
cember 81. The jack snipe limit is
TWENTY-FIVE The dove season closed

SCARCITY OF EGGS.

Housekeepers and restaurant peo-
pie are having the time of their
lives in the present egg situation.
This delicious and very necessary
fruit" called by many "life-sav-
ers" in the present high cost of liv-
ing, has become very scarce and
commanding high prices. One res
tauranteur told THE NEWS man
that he had paid as high as $1.2O
per dozen for two dozen eggs. while
another stated that he had paid
S1.OO a dozen for the article. The
prices have now dropped to about rs
cents per dozen, and scarce at that.
The scarcity is attributed by deal
ers and handlers to two facts. The
hens are on strike. and housewives
in the country who have an ample
supply are packing the eggs away in
anticipation of higher prices around
the Christmas season. An any rate
the eggs are scarce, and when fell
