HEAVY SLEET DOES GREAT
DAMAGE IN PARIS.

A heavy sleet, which followed
The rains of Tuesday and wednes-
day afternoon, did a great amount
of damage in this city and county
yesterday. The sleet began Wed.
nesday night. and continued until
late in the afternoon, when 1t
changed to rain, which, in a small
degree, helped to relieve the situa-
lion.
Handsome shade trees have been
ruined, broken down bodily or their
limbs bowed over by the weight of
streets. especially on Pleasant street,
the damage was almost incalculable.
Telephone, telegraph, fire alarm and
electric light wires suffered, and
the fire alarm system was put out
of commission, rendering the situa-
ton an extremely ticklish one.
Telephone wires sagged to the
ground all over the city, and large
force of linemen spent the greater
part of the day and far into last
night, endeavoring to restore the
interrupted service. Service on the
Paris-Lexington interurban electric
line was interfered with, the high
tension wires being down, no cars
running until late in the afternoon.
Rural mail route carriers out OF
Paris had to turn back on account of
the roads being blocked with fallen
telephone poles and huge limbs OF
fallen trees. The electric light and
mower system in the city was
disrupted, the current being off from
carly morning until late in the az
ternoon, when the local plant was
NIT into commission. The pave
Juents were covered with a glare OF
ice that rendered travel over them
almost impossible, and forcing pc
destrians, for safety sake, to walk In
The streets. Large limbs blocked
travel on many of the streets.
Over a mile and half of the
Home Telephone Co.'s wires were
DOWN on the Bethlehem pike, put
ting a large number of phones out
of commission. The Cumberland
Co. also suffered, though to a lesser
extent. Many country people aban-
doned hope of getting to town In
their machines or other vehicles
and walked in. Many who started In
their machines were forced to turn
back on account Of the impossible
roads Accidents were numerous
throughout the city. caused by falls
on the slippery pavements, though
hone were seriously injured.
The sleet was the second and
heaviest of the present winter, be-
ing, according to local observers,
from one-euarter to one-half inches
thick.

AN APPEAL FOR THE MASSIE
MEMORIAL HOSPITAL

Statistics-Number patients ad-
mitted during 1919, All; Number
hospital days, 5,943; average pa
tients each day, II; cost per day for
each patient, $4.35; total number of
operations performed during 1919,
ZIG; number Of births at hospital,
l3; number of deaths, 38, or less
than s per cent when you stop to
consider that all people who are in
jured by accident are taken to the
hospital, and that a great many sick
people are taken there as a last re-
sort, this per centage is very low
Also it compares very favorably with
results in other hospitals.)
Over $500 people have been taken
care of during the existence of this
institution, of which number about
one-third were taken care of with
out charge Of any kind.
If the people of Paris and Bour-
bon County will give these facts Sc
riouS consideration, each and every
one of them will want to contribute
something to keep the Massie Hos
pital a living institution.
Every person in the county is liza
BILE to have need for the hospital at
any time A few dollars contrib
uted now is cheap health insurance.
The people of small means should
contribute for their own protection.
The people of large means should
contribute because they owe it to
the community.
Don't let the other fellow DO your
part. A subscription left at any OF
the banks will be turned in to the
committee that is endeavoring to
raise the fund. Won't you do it to-
day?

SNEAK THIEVES BUSY

Sneak thieves have been actively
at work in this city in the past few
days. Several days ago sneak thief
purloined an overcoat belonging to
James Grinnell from the cloak
room at the Methodist church.
The coat is still missing. So is the
thief. Late Tuesday afternoon
while a meeting of women of the
Presbyterian church was in progress
a light-flngered party entered the
cloak room and stole two handbags
belonging to members Of the gath
ering. The handbags contained
small articles necessary to wo-
mans facial toilet. and a few trink-
cts, but nothing of monetary value
was obtained. The nervy thief
made his getaway without being
heard. The police were appraised OF
the affair. but have no clue on which
to work.

The Jmisian Posts.

The postal courier service Of Tunis
which ran between the years 1855 and
1875 is described in the "Revue Tuni-
sienne" by Mr.. Marcel Gandolphe. The
service covered the distance between
Tunis and Susa up to 1868. and then it
was extended to SfaI. The distance
between Tunis and Susa-a dangerous
journey over not too easy country
was performed in "a hours and at one
stretch. Only once was the Tunis
courier behind his time, by IL hours,
and that was the result Of hair-raising
adventure. In 1864 times were GER
talnly not good for couriers and way
laying on the road was not uncommon.
At that period there were only two
running out of the three Mohammeds,
who for many years had shared the
duty. Boutefeu, Becassine and Le
Chameau were names bestowed upop
them, the first because Of his vivacfty.
the second because of his svelte ap-
pearance, and the third because Of his
stature. The story Of these dauntless
three of the Tunisian postal service
in the light Of the latest aerial postal
innovations Is Of almost prehistoric
favor.
