The Philadelphia papers speak in
high praise of Nervella c. Jacobs, OF
indianapolis, a pianist and COM
poser. Miss Jacobs is brave young
woman, who has overcome the
handicaps imposed by total blind
ness. She gave piano recital in
Philadelphia before large audience
and had as part of her program a
sonata of her own production, which
critics speak of as being distinctly
meritorious and creditable.

- DR.. David I. Macht, of the Phar
Theological Department of Johns
Hopkins University, has discovered
a new local anaesthetic that is about
forty times less toxic than cocaine.
The drug itse1f-benzy1 alcohol, or
phenmethylol-is not new, but its
properties in producing local anaes-
thesia are in the nature of a COM
plete discovery that is attracting
much attention in medical and sur-
gical circles.

KURT EISNER.

If before the war any one pre-
dicted that the Bavarian Govern
ment would be headed by Jew, he
would have been hustled off to an
insane asylum, but nevertheless this
phenomenon occurred, and Kurt
Eisner, from November 18th, last to
the day he was assassinated, was the
reigning power in Bavaria. Eisner
was born in Berlin (some say in
Galicia) as Solomon Kosnowski or
Kosnawkosky, in 1867. He became
a writer and in 1892 issued his first
work, "Nietsche and the Apostles
of the Future" being a study in what
he called spiritual psycopathy." He
wrote nothing for the next seven
years, but turned out ten books,
all on political subjects, from 1899
to 1909, meanwhile becoming one Of
the editors of "Vorwaerts," the Off
cial organ of the Social Democracy.
At that time he inclined towards
moderate views He was forced out
some years before the war, settling
in Munich. For the next few years
he lived in comparative obscurity,
but about a year ago came into
prominence through conflict with
the authorities and was sentenced
to term in prison.
Soon after quitting jail Eisner
was nominated by the Independent
Socialists of Munich for the Reich
stag at special election to fill a
vacancy In the meantime came the
signing of the armistice, the over
throw of the reigning dynasty, and
the rest is history we'll known.

At a conference held prior to the
calling of the case, the parties agreed
that rather than go to further ex-
pense in fees and court costs, they
would send the money for the re-
building of the ancient Jewish home
land. Judge Marschner, in whose
court the case was to be tried, warm
ly commended the fine spirit and
great loyalty to the Zionist cause

Frankfort, KY, January 29-Gov.
Stanley is the best pardoner Ken
lucky has ever had. He admits as
much, and seemingly glories in the
distinction.
In point of the number of GRIM
inals freed through the exercise Of
executive clemency he even has it
on Gov. John Young Brown, who, on
one occasion, as a reason for lib
Grating a man, wrote opposite the
criminals name on the pardon jour-
nal: He was my friend"
Gov. Stanley has granted so many
pardons, or combinations of sentence,
that long ago he ceased to keep count
of the number. Nobody in his office
knows, his secretary, Miss Minnie
Mailer, explaining today that it would
require week to go through the
journal and find out.

Governor added. Some of my enc
mics broke into my Office and tried
to steal it on one occasion. l have
not the slightest idea as to the num-
ber of names it contains" Il
The Governor was careful in some
respects in exercising clemency. For
instance, he pointed out today, that
it was his impression that he had
never granted pardon to a liquor
law violator. During the little over
three years that he has been in Of
flee he has been VARY observer of
the inexorable approach of temper
ance, and has watched his step" in
that connection. He has freed any
number Of men convicted of murder,
however, and never batted an eye.

ed, after investigating each indi-
vidual case and ascertaining that the
trial Judge and jury were wrong in

Hon. James |. Blakesle, Fourth AS
sistant Postmaster General, at Wash
ington, d. c., few days ago, by the
Secretary Of the Chamber of Com
merce.
I'VE read in the attached clipping
regarding your promise of sixty motor
mail routes for Ohio, and as we have
heard nothing of your endeavors
along this line in our state, we
thought 1t might be well for us to call
your attention to the fact that
mighty good opportunity for the es-
tablishment of one of these mail
routes, presents itself in route No.
$50 in the Blue Book.
Route No. $50, as you will note, Is
a seventy mile stretch of road through
one of the richest farming territories
in the United States, and is untouched
by railroads.
You will note that the route starts
at Cincinnati, passes through New
port, KY, through Cold Springs to
Alexandria, thence through Claryville,
Grant Lick, Peach Grove and Pribbles
Cross Roads to Caddo, Berlin, Powers
vile, Germantown, Fernleaf and
through Moransburg to Maysville.
I'VE shall be glad to lend you what
effort we can in looking toward the
establishment of this mail route, and
hope that we may be privileged to be
Of service to you"
The following communication was
received today by the Chamber of
Commerce in answer to the above.
MY dear Mr.. Dodds: beg to ac-
knowledge the receipt of your COM
munication Of the Goth instant, with
particular reference to the establish
ment of rural motor truck service in
the vicinity of Maysville. have noted
with interest the various statements
made by you also the circular regard
ing the Gateway to the Bluegrass Re-
gion of Kentucky" and there is no
doubt but what motor truck route in
this locality would prove successful.
However, the extension of the SER
vice at this time will depend entire
ly upon the action of Congress in pro-
viding sufficient appropriation to per-
NIT of the continuance in operation of
the existing service and the establish
ment of additional routes. 1t is ir,-
possible to state at this time the ac-
ton which it may be possible to take
in the vicinity of Maysville, looking to

The evangelistic services at the

interested in the success Of the revival
effort are much encouraged at the
turn in the tone Of the meetings. From
now on good results may be expected
from the faithful work done.
The work of the big chorus last
evening was par excellence. Carl
Dodds has once more proven himself
a master at the job. That a chorus of
such proportions and that would re-

at Sunday mornings service 1t was
planned to have the children Of the

There are fine lot of children in this

IS UpTURNED BY DERA|L
Three Wrecking Crews Required to
Clear Up Wreck Of Engine and
One Car at Wellsburg This
Morning.

One of the heaviest types of engines
on the C. & o. railroad was derailed
at Wellsburg station, just below here
this morning at about six O'Clock
when the train ran through a dorail
and was toppled over.
Only the engine and one car were
wrecked but the engine was so heavy
and the wreck so unhandy to handle
that three wrecking crews were ne
cessary to clear the track. The west
bound track was tied up practically
all day on account Of the wreck.
The heavy engine was thrown over
m its side and it was great wonder
that the engineer or fireman were not
injured but both jumped for their
lives and ESCAPED even scratch.
