(Danyille AdYocatel
(janS-1


Mr.. D. c. Tucker, the local stock
dealer, has an educated horse that is
worth while. Monday afternoon Mr..
Tucker was driving drove of cattle
up Main street. At the postoffice he
stopped a few minutes to enter for
his mail. When he-returned both
the cattle and horse had disappeared.
Inquiry brought the information that
the cattle had suddenly became
panic stricken and fled with the
horse in hot pursuit. Mr.. Tucker
also pursued with his usual alert
ness. 1t ~ was discovered that the
horse had outran the cattle and was
bringing them back to the postoffice
in way that would have almost put
Mr.. Sam Johnson to shame. Quite a
number of very prominent people
witnessed this remarkable evidence
of superb education exhibited by
Mr.. fuckers horse. The cattle had
gotten to Maple avenue before they

GERMAN DEAD TUsSTAY
Soldiers Buried in Foreign Soil
May Not Be Moved.
Cost of Taking the Bodies Home From
Belgium and France is Considered
Prohibitive-Graves Are Be-
ing Cared For.

Berlin.-German soldiers who died
and were buried on Belgian and
French battlefields probably will re-
main on foreign soil, on account of
the cost entailed in bringing them
home. This is indicated In statements
by the official bureau intrusted with
the work Of helping relatives to iden-
tify the dead and arrange for the
transportation Of their bodies to Ger
many.
Although negotiations with France
and Belgium for the removal of the
bodies were concluded weeks ago, not
one German soldier has been exhumed
for the journey home, despite the fact
that thousands Of inquiries have been
made by relatives.
Told that they must bear the cost
Of exhuming and transportation, which
from France amounts to 10000 marks,
they turn away, for that sum is now
large fortune to the average German.
Consequently, sentiment Is growing to
allow the German soldier dead to rest
on the field where they were buried
or in the French or Belgian cemeteries
to which they have been transferred.
The information that the French
are carefully tending these burial
places and, where possible, marking
the individual graves with crosses and
names, also has tended to allay the
feeling that these dead should not re-
main in q strange land.
Under the stipulations agreed upon
none of the three governments as
sumes responsibility for mistakes, and
the relative must give a guarantee of
Identity before permission is granted
for removal, which in the majority of
cases Is very difficult.
Even those relatives who can not or
do not desire to bring the dead soldier
back to the Fatherland are seeking to
establish the identity Of the fallen, and
the bureaus opened in Prussia, Ba-
varia, Saxony and Wuerttemburg to
help them, are swamped with inquiries

THREE-LEGGED OFFSPRING
((Harrodsburg Herald)


A three-legged calf, perfectly nor
NAL otherwise, is the unusual possess
sion of John Wright, a farmer of
Cox's Creek section of Nelson
county. Two weeks ago there was
born to old Roam" the old milk
steady, the odd-looking child At
first the mother refused to claim
kinship, but most cordial terms have
since been effected and now the
youngster seems to be the mothers
favorite son. Perfectly normal in
all other respects the calf is as play
full as it's kind and frisks about with
rapid locomotion. Although old
Roam" has become reconciled to
her curious offspring, the other ami
mails seem to regard it with disfavor.

Seemingly there is no connection
whatever between the names Colds

former. is a good old English name
while the latter is usually that OF
Hebrews Of German origin.
The progenitor of the Goldsbor-

Goldsborough, who was born in 1910
or 1641 at Malcolm Regis near Wey-
mouth in the county of Dorset, Eng

married Margaret Howes and a year
later on Advent Sunday was born
Robert Peterborough, who died on
Christmas Day eighty-six years later.
Later there were two other children,
Nicholas and Judith, beth born in
England. The father, Nichalos,
with his wife and children left Eng
land in 1869 and went to the Barba-

England and finely settled In Kent
