Warning to Airmen Who Smoke.

An airman who drops a lighted pipe
from his plane is responsible for any
damage his pipe may cause. This
was decided at moot, or discussion,
in Gray's Inn hall, London, recently,
at which Justice Darling presided
Mr. Justice Darling, in the course Of
his judgment, said that for an airman
to take a lighted pipe and smoke it
when flying at a point where if it
fell it would fall by gravitation to the
earth instead of to the moon, to allow
it to fall or not to prevent 1t to fall
that was in itself prima facie negli.
gence. If the pipe fell to earth and
set fire to a haystack or did any other
damage, the person injured was en-.
titled to an action to recover damages
for negligence.--Brooklyn Eagle.

not entirely robbed of his glory. An
army headed by fat general cud-

was that the high officers of the allies

to attend to it. If you vote in

TER also. The books will be open
for registration twenty days before
election for all who have not register
ed to do so. The dates for registration
in this county will be from around

your citizenship like real red -blooded
citizen. who feels it both
a duty and privilege to vote.

BUMPER CORN CROP

The corn crop is such a good one
this year that the price is expected
to fall materially: in fact prices have
tumbled greatly now. Il reports Of
agreed sales be correct.
Owing to the great amount Of rain
during August and the first part Of
this month much corn is down in this
state and it is admitted that much
soft corn will result. This soft corn
must be used soon or it will spoil,
which may mean that many cattle
will be fattened on it.
In this county corn was y little
later than in the lowlands and late
corn has been damaged bv r,t fill
ing well, due to so much ra'1 that
the pollen was washed off before the
grains could set. That with t., large
per cent. of down corn will seriously
'injure the crop in this county. The
relative damage will be greater in
this plateau section than in the low
country because of the corn being
later in maturing.

PROMPT ACTION
Runaway Cars Stopped, Possible Bad
Wreck and Lives Saved.

What might have resulted in loss
of life and a very bad wreck was
averted Wednesday afternoon when
John w. Smith stopped five runaway
freight cars that had been knocked
loose and started by freight train
as it pulled west out of the switch
yards here.
Mr.. Smith and some other men were
working at the J. H. Findlay lumber
yards about half a mile from the
depot and saw the cars as they were
running wild. He took in the situa-
ton at a glance and at once began
to throw 2x4 lumber and other OBJ
cars struck the obstacles it slowed
them up so much that Mr.. Smith was
able to climb on top of the cars and
set the brakes just as the cars reached
the top of the slight grade near the
lumber yard. Bailey Bradley assist
ed Mr.. Smith some and set one brake
just as the cars were coming to stop.
Had Mr.. Smith not stopped the
cars they should have likely run seven
or eight miles west, crossing seven
bridges and trestles and passing eight
or nine wagon crossings, unless they
should have been wrecked sooner.
There is no telling what the result
would have been.
The section crew was coming to.
ward Crossville on their car and had
the cars not been stopped there might
have been fatalities with them. What
the property loss would have been is
equally uncertain.
All in all Mr. Smith is to be COM
mended for his thoughtfulness and
prompt action. The railroad COM
pany should and probably will show
him proper recognition for his work.

Ex-KAISER'S sun
COMMITS SUICIDE
Former Prince Joachim, Without
Money, Kills Himself
at PotSdam.
SIXTH SON OF Ey-EMPEROR
Was Wounded During Summer OF
1914 in East Prussia Fighting
Weakling From Birth and Dis
liked by His Father.

London. July 20.-Former Kaiser
Wilhelm's youngest son. Prince Joa-
chin, has ended his life.
Advices from Berlin say the prince,
who was known to have been brood
ing over money embarrassments. shot
himself In potsdam. The princes
wife left him last year.
Prince Joachim, sixth son of the ex-
kaiser, has been in the world lime
light during the last six years almost
as much as his Older brothers. Dur
ing the latter days of the war he dis
tinguished himself on several occa-
sions. He was wounded during the
summer of 1914 in the fighting in East
Prussia.
At that time a shell fragment tore
away part of his thigh and he was
laid up for many weeks, returning TO
the front against the advice of at
tending surgeons. He was awarded
the Iron Cross soon after receiving
the wound.
Joachim was born in 1890 The
story of his life at the imperial court
written by Countess Amille Elsen-
borg, for Is years lady-in-waiting 70
the German empress, describes him as
the spoiled child of his mother. Like
most spoiled children, the countess
said In her story, he has repaid indul-
gence with worry and disappointment.
Prematurely born. he has been a
physical weakling and subject TO epis
ieptic fits since birth. Because of his
Ill health he was allowed much lati-
tude by his mother and his tutors.
with the result that he was described
rs being strong neither morally nor
mentally by those who came in close
contact with him.
Despite these handicaps. however,
his war career. which began almost
with the mobilization of the first of
the German armies. has been described
as thrilling and unusual.
In March, 1916, he led the German
forces that drove the Russians out Of
Mernel in East Prussia. When the
kaiser abdicated and fed to Holland
he named Joachim king of Livonia.
At the time Joachim was yariously
reported as having fled with his fa-
ther 10 Holland and 10 have gone to
Switzerland.
The marriage of Prince Joachim
Tecemher II, 1916. t6 Princess Marie
Auguste, daughter of Prince Edward
of Anhalt, was the war romance in
the HohenZoHern family. Princess
Marie was niece of the reigning
Duke Frederick II of Anhalt and
passed her nineteenth birthday in
June preceding her marriage to the
prince.
The marriage took place while the
prince was convalescing from the
wound in the thigh received in the
East Prussia fighting. He re-entered
the service shortly after the cere-
mony.

REFUSE TO GO TO LONDON

London, July 21.-The reply of the
Russian soviet government to the
British note concerning an armistice
with Poland, rejects in substance the
British peace proposals, according TO
the London Timts, which publishes a
summary of the soviet answer.
The document is long and the Times
assumes that 1t soon will be published
by the government.
The bolsheviki decline to come to
London for the suggested peace con-
ference, according TO the Times, be-
cause they say Great Britain is not
impartial. They also object TO the
admission to the conference of dele
gates from the Baltic states. saying
Russia already has made peace with
them.
As to Poland, the bolsheyik govern
ment points out that the proposed
armistice line Is unfair to Poland and
that with direct negotiations the boil
sheviki are prepared to grant Poland
much more fav 1rable frontier.
The boIshevik reply refuses fatty
to entertain any cor ditions regarding
the forces of Gen. Wrangel and the
refugees in south Russia and de-
mands their unconditional surrender.
The tone of the reply is sarcastic,
says the Times, which declares It is
aimed at driving a wedge between Po-
land and the allies by stimulating Po-
lish dissatisfaction with the British
propo a. The Times adds that IL be
lieves the reply viii make II more
difficult for Great Britain to enter into
trade relations with Russia.
