Life Of Candle Flame.

Laboratory experiments conducted
of late have shown that candle flame
will become eXtingui5Ied when the
oxygen content of the atmosphere in
which it is burning falls to about IS
per cent. Sulphur stops turning when
all but 1915 per cent Of the oxygen in
an incloscd space has been exhausted
The case Of charcoal, however, is
notable. Combustion continues until
only 0 per cent of the oxygen remains.

At Paino's store the entry and exit
were made by means of the fire es-
cape and back window. Fortunately
the major part of the money had been
locked up in a safe. About $40 was
taken from the cash register. APP
parcntly the thieves sat in the display
window and ate water melon and
plums, as pieces of melon and plums
were strcwn about the window and
floor. In attempting to make milk
shakes and egg shakes the visitors
dropped eggs on the floor
Both robberies display a spirit of
wanton destruction on the part of the
thieves.

CHARGED WITH
MURDER OF Child

Lacinda Farlis, a colored woman of
the Berea section, was brought to Jail
Monday by Deputy Sheriff Johnson,
to face an Indictment charging her
with murder. The woman is accused
by neighbors of having burned her
young child to death 1t is alleged
that she set fire to the bed in which
it was sleeping, and that it was so
severely burned when discovered that
it died soon afterward. =
Stories told by the woman's colored
neighbors are conflicting, and she de-
nies her guilt. One of the witnesses
says, it is alleged that the woman was
in the house of another woman. and
they started to visit neighbor. When
short distance away from her home,
the Farris woman is alleged to have
hurried back to the house for mo-
ment, to get something she had for
gotten.
Soon afterward, it is alleged, smoke
was seen issuing from the house, and
neighbors found the bed in which
the child was sleeping ablaze, and it
was horribly burned, dying soon aft
erward. It's mother was accused of
having set it on fire. The child was
a very young one. Her husband is
alleged to have been dead for several
years.

RETURN OF THE
RAILROADS And
WIRES TO OFFERS
And Repeal of Wartime Prohibition
On Beer and Wine. Among Prcsi-
dents Recommendations In Mes
sage To Congress.
lBy Associated Press)

Washington, May 20-President
Wilson, in his message to Congress
today, recommended repeal of war
time prohibition, so far as it applies
to wine and beer only. He announced
definitely that the railroad systems
and the telegraph and telephone lines
would be returned to private owner
ship, and urged revision of wan taxes,
particularly to abolish manufacture
ers' and retail sales excises and out
lined generally a program regarding
labor.
These were the 'sMgh spots" of the
message he cabled from Paris. Be
sides that, he urged the enactment of
the woman suffrage constitutional
amendment, recommended that the
tariff laws be supplied with teeth to
protect American indus against
foreign attack, spoke for legislation
to facilitate American enterprise thro
expansion of shipping and backed
Secretary Lanes program for land
for returning soldiers.
Of the Paris Peace Conference, and
the League of Nations, the President
merely said it would be premature to
discuss them or express judgment
He also avoided discussion of domestic
legislation at length because of his
long absence from Washington.
Congress heard the unique document
the only one of its kind ever transmit
ted across the ocean from a president
on foreign shore. His recommends
ton for repeal of war time prohibi,
ton and for the retu1n of the rail anC
wire systems. while not unexpected
by some, contained the greatest ele,
ment of surprise and provoked tls
most widespread comment, of the
many tasks set before Congress BY

FROM LIEUT.. G. BUSH

e. , -
Mrs. Wilson Tate has Just received
an interesting letter from Lieut.. C.
Bush, of Richmend who is with the
American forces at Tours, France,
which will be of interest to his many
friends at home here. He writes:
April 18th, 1919.
Dear Mrs. Tate:-
Hardly know whether to apologize or
complain. u haven't had a letter from
you for very long time. but am not
sure whether l owe you one or not. 1t
makes no difference, however, for
don't count letters with my sweetheart
(whoever she may be).
? Am compelled to apologize for the
pooh writing l am trying to do. Have
been using crutches for a little longer
than two weeks from results of a
slightly mashed foot and my right arm
is bit numbed by unaccustomed use of
the crutch. Nothing serious at all
within two weeks. My surgeon cap
tain just informed that 1 might be able
to get home ION this foot" meaning
''on account of its condition" I replied
to him that | hoped to be able to get
home on both feet.
l am very anxious to come home all
right. but don't know whether / want
10 come back before my organization
does or not, even if could. While we
are all anxious to come home. there
doesn't seem to be much worry or dis
lcontentment here as there was soon af-
ter the signing of the armistice. think
that our government is/Susing and ex-
erting every effort to get us boys home
at the earliest possible moment
Hike France better every day, and am
having a good time but had rather be
at home.
My experiences have not been so
thrilling as some, and l have not ac-
complished as many others, yet l feel
that I've done my duty in every respect
to the service and have tried hard to
make good soldier. The service has
been pretty hard in many respects but
with the help and comforts of our
great government and our good, chari-
table people at home who have sacri-
| feed in many ways more than we and
have given us courage and backing.
feel that we'll look back upon the
hardships after all with pride and
pleasure.
Kindest regards to all your folks
Would write you a long letter, but am
making such poor attempt at this one
that L know it is difficult to read.

KILLED
IN AUTO ACCIDENT
Rev. w. NJ. EIdridse Beloved Minister
of Presbyterian Church, and Rev.
SheItman, Victims When Rum
about Overturns.

Many warm friends in Richmond
and all over this section We're greatly
grieved by news of the killing of the
Rev. W. M. Eldridgr, of Paint Lick, in
an automobile accident between Dam
vile and Lancaster Monday after
noon. Rev. Eldridge was accompani-
ed by Rev. Clyde Sheleman, of Lex
ington, who was going with Mr.. FL
bridge to Paint Lick to conduct evan
gelistic services at the Old Paint
Lick Presbyterian church,; of which
! the latter has been the very beloved
| pastor for a number of years.
| The two preachers were in Mr.. Ell
bridges small runabout, which has
been familiar sight all over the
Paint Lick section. He had gone to
Danville to meet DR.. Sheltman.
Approaching the hill just before
reaching a bridge about five miles
| beyond Lancaster, at a sharp bend
in the road, the machine became un-
manageable and/before control could
be regained, plunged down an en-
bankment, overturning and pinioning
both men underneath the car.
] The tragedy was not discovered for
half an hour afterwards when mo-
itorists driving along the road saw the
machine in the I'avine, and righted
it, releasing the two bodies. Death
apparently had been instantaneous.
Mr.. Eldridge was married and is
survived by his widow and four chill
dren. He had been conspicuous in re-
iligious work in and near Paint Lick
for about eight Yeas.
One of his daughters, Miss Eliza
be- l-ldridge, taughi in the Caldwell
; High School faculty year before last,
and was very popular here. He has
, two sons serving with American army
, in France, and another daughter is
, the wife of Harry Francis, well known
, here.
Mr. Eldridge was one Of the most
: popular ministers of tine gospel in
this part of Kentucky He was a
, friend to every man, saint or sinner,
/ a splendid tinker" and withal a de-
! vout and God-fearing man, his flock
, devoted to him and beloved of all. In
: addition to his pastoral duties, he
/. owned about 100 acres of land in the
= Paint Lick section, and last season
+ raised a small acreage OF tobacco.
: which he sold over the Richmond
S breaks. w. P. Kincaid, buying for the
/ J. p. Taylor Company, had quite a
little fun with Mr. Eldridge, who was
his good friend, when the minister's
weed went over the breaks. Mr.. El-
bridge frequently came to Richmond
! and had many warm friends here
: The Rev. Mr.. Sheltman was for
. mer pastor of the Maxwell Street
PfeGbvte'ian church of Lexington. He
left there about nine years ago. Al
ter that. he went to Missouri, where
, he was engaged in evangelistic work.
/ From there he went to Arkadelphia.
| Ark. About year ago he returned
to Kentucky and took up two pastor
ates at McAfee and Salvisa. He is
/ survived by his wife and one daughter
Miss Margaret. His wife went to Lou
isville Monday for an operation Mr..
/ Sheltman was about 45 years of age.
and has been living near his church
at McAfee in Mercer county.
