He's SO, but That Does
Not Prevent ManV Stunts

William Nay, known to cattlemen
throughout the west as "the oldest
cowboy" does not let a little thing
like being ninety-three years old in
terfere with his enjoyment of life
and his ability to do the wild west
stunts that test the ability and
strength of much younger men.
In Chickasha, Oklahoma, where he
lives his feats occasion no surprise
as nearly everybody knew his rec
ord; but when he went to Kansas
City the other day, he stirred up
the natives by his stunts.
He put on an impromptu entertain
ment to help in raising funds for re-
turning soldiers and when he had
finished a few broncho eye-openers
and some tricks with lasso, he was
voted unanimously the best enter
tainer anywhere around. Then when
they learned that he Wis ninety-three
the wonder grew apace.

This being the case, 1t appears that
all Of the license ordinances issued by

more than likely that there will be an
extensive investigation into this mat

pass orders validating those ordi-
nances when the council meets the

GREAT OVATION IS
GIVEN IN ENGLAND
OvERHERO'S RESCUE
Hawker and Grleye Picked Up BY
Danish Steamer, Are Landed
at Scotland.

London, May 26. - Harry Hawker
and Mackenzie Grieve set foot on Brit
ish soil today, nearly week after they
had been given up for lost in their at
tempt to fly from Newfoundland to Ire
land in Sopwith airplane.
The aviators, who are the greatest
national heroes of the moment, land
ed at Thurso, Scotland, from the Brit
is destroyer Revenge. The Revenge
took them from the Danish tramp
steamer Mary, which picked them up
in mid-ocean early last Monday, after
they had been forced to descend to the
sea.
Hawker and Grieve were scheduled
to start this afternoon from Thurso
for London, where they will be given
royal welcome tomorrow. Britain has
been jubilating ever since the news
spread like wildfire over the land that
Hawker and Grieve had been saved
Grieve, Immediately upon landing,
sent this message to his parents:
Safe; will wire later"
When news of the rescue first was
received the Sopwith Airplane Co.
telegraphed Thurso for information.
Later 1t was confirmed by an airplane
courier.
1--WE had given him up for lost"
said Mrs, Grieve, when she heard the
news of her husbands rescue. She
was too overcome to say more.
Grieve's native town, Froxford, took
on carnival appearance.
AS the news spread there was great
enthusiasm throughout Britain. There
were remarkable scenes in the streets,
in concert halls and in moving picture
theaters when the announcement of
! the rescue was made Crowds cheered
and tossed hats in air.
A throng gathered around the home
I of Hawker, near London. The town
was befagged as it has not been since

At the church, the evening service
was one Of thanksgiving.
For this is my son who was dead
and is alive again. who was lost and is
found" was the text of Rev. T. ].
Wood. There were special prayers
and psalms of thanksgiving and the
doxology was sung.
Mrs. Hawker received a telegram of
congratulations from the king and
queen, who few days earlier had sent
her telegram Of coincidence on the
supposed death of her husband.

CONCRETE MAY. Be
PLACED WEENCAR
TRACKS Immediately
Specifications For Concrete Paw.
Ing Between Car Rails In Mar.
ket and Second Streets Re.
ceived-Expense Would
BE Very Light.

Concrete will probably be adopted
by the special committee of codncil
as the proper paving to be placed be-
tween the car rails on Market and in
West Second street.
Specifications were received by the
committee Monday from an engineer
who came here several days ago at the
request Of the Maysville Street Rail-
way Company to look into the matter.
Concrete is probably the cheapest and
most satisfactory sort of paving for
this section of the street, which In its
present condition has been quite un-
slightly for some time and which is
now becoming very dangerous espe-
cially to automobiles.
For several months a special COM
mittee from council has been working
on the matter with representatives Of
the Street Car Company and Mayor
Thomas M. Russell, who is chairman
of this special committee, announced
today that he was positive that an
agreement could be reached that
would give the city satisfactory
street.
The estimated cost of the concrete
paving in this unpaved section Of the
two streets is about $1.50 per running
foot. An agreement will probably be
reached whereby the car company will
pay part of the cost, the city part
Of the cost and the adjoining property
owners the balance. Splitting the cost
into three equal parts and the city
paying for that section in front of
cross streets, alleys, city property, etc.,
the cost of the construction will be
about 25 cents a front foot to the ad-
joining property owners and there Is
not one living and owning property
on these streets who would not will
ingly pay even more than that amount
to have the section paved and to re-
move the mud holes the car tracks be-
come in wet and rainy weather. A
meeting of the special committee will
be held at once when the big problem
will be finally solved.

HIGH SCHOOL STU.
Dents COOPERATE
IN PLANT survey
State. Wide Survey Of Plant Disease
Inaugurated-LOcal School Look
Ing After Mason County.

The U. s. Department Of Agriculture,
In cooperation with the Kentucky Ex-
pertinent Station Is making Plant
disease Survey Of Kentucky. This, as
the name indicates, is q survey to col
lect and identify all the plant-disease
OF ganisms found in the State. The bio
logy and agriculture classes OF the
Maysville High School, under the lead
ership of c. s. Dale, Principal Of the
High School, have assumed the task OF
supplying specimens from Mason
county. In order to do this successful
ly every farmer, gardener or citizen,
who Is interested in seeing the econo-
mic loss, due to the ravages Of disease
organisms reduced to minimum is
urged to cooperate.
You can do this easily with great in
terest to yourself and profit to the
community by following these simple
instructions: First, learn the symp-
toms Of plant-diseases. Nearly all dis
eases are caused by microscopic nom
green plants called fungi. The fungi
affect the plant on which they live in
various ways which are recognized as
rust, smut, mildew, wilt, rot, scab or
leaf spot. Now when you notice any
Of the symptoms on your vegetables,
crops, grasses chords or on weeds by
the roadside or elsewhere. gather parts
Of the plants affected and II they are
small leafy plants, put the specimens
between newspapers, and weight to dry
II it should be branch Of a tree, or a
bracket fungus, (Which grows on
trunks Of trees) 1t Is not necessary to
dry II. Write the date Of collection
and common name Of the plant from
which you obtained the specimen on
the margin Of the newspaper or on a
tag to it. At your convenience, bring
your collections to the Chamber Of
Commerce or the High School and
they will be forwarded to the Expert
ment Station at Lexington.
