' Capt. Uichmond 1. Jlohson says whisky causes
' 3,000 men to murder their wives each year. Ho
should now he frank and show what proportion C
' those whisky-soaked wife murderers live in prohi
bition Slates Courier-Journal.
Even Democratic papers are admitting that-husi-1
ness is had and men are idle. The New Vork Times
has made the statement that "in the middle stales
there are a million idle men with an average loss of
$50,000 a day in wages." As an instance of this,
in Chicago, it hus been proposed to appropriate a
million dollars to relieve idle wage earners.
NEW HOUSES AND HEALTH.
New houses are constantly ottered for rent in
1 largo numbers in the United States and real-estate
agents are naturally anxious to till the houses on
their lists with tenants as soon as possible. Prob
ably a little investigation would show the desir
ability in this country of requiring a certificate that
a new house will jiot endanger the health of its
occupants before families are allowed to move into
it. Such municipal regulations are prdving val
uable in England. Toward the close of 1SM2 the
Portsmouth (England) corporation decided that
thereafter no new building intended for human
habitation in that borough should be occupied un
til it had been certiiied as sanitary in every respect.
Dr. A. Meurns Fraser says: "The principal evil
that it will prevent is the occupation of houses be
fore they have had time to dry." He adds: "1
would far sooner live in a house with defective
drainage than in a damp house; the results from the
latter are more insidious in their onset and more
difficult to overcome. Dampness undoubtedly great
ly favors the incidence of consumption, bronchitis,
rheumatism, heart-disease and diphtheria. Prob
ably children are more susceptible to the ill ef
fects of damp houses than adults." The depart
ments of health of our cities might well take up this
question, says The Journal of the American Medical
Association. Probably most American municipal
ities already have the legal power necessary o re
quire such certificates and the question is only one
of making the regulation and establishing the custom.

HOME FIRE INSURANCE COMPANIES.
The fire insurance situation in Kentucky is hav
ing at least one good effect. It is inducing the for
mation of a number of new fire insurance com
panies in various parts of the Slate.
A dispatch from Lexington tells of the probabil
ity of a company being organized there by James
B. Ifaggin and other men of capital. A new com
pany is begiuning operations at Paducah and an
other is in process of formation at Hopkiusville.
There are a number of companies already in ex
istence with headquarters in Louisville, Lexington
and elsewhere.
"" There is absolutely no reason why the people of
Kentucky should not keep at home at least a con
siderable amount of the money thai is being paid
out in premiums to foreign insurance companies.
This money kept at home would contribute in great
degree to the prosperity of the Commonwealth
Certainly tho people of Kentucky do not lack the
means or the business ability to institute and main
tain companies for the purpose of protecting their
own property and the property of persons in other
States.
Public attention evidently is being directed to
this feature of the situation, and men of wealth and
commercial influence are beginning to see the pos
sibilities of niade-iu-Kentucky insurance organiza
tions. As a public benefit and as a source of profit
the home-formed company is eminently worth con
sidering at this particular time. Courier-Journal

President in tlio chair.
After a rending of tho 85 and 40
Psalms, followed by a prayer for guid
ance, tho regular business of tho meet
Xig was discussed.
Tho progress of tho work is most
gratifying, though on account of the
contagious diseases now nrovnlent In
tho community, thero has been a decid
cd falling off in nttondnnco nt both the
Sunday nud industrial schools.
Tho industrial school always suspeiids
its work during tho heated term, but on
account of health conditions it 'was
thought best to closo a little earlier
this summer. Saturday of this week be
ing tho last days work-in this Interest
ing department, until fall. Tho Sunday
School will not bo suspended, hoping
that it will not be long iwtil its usual
attendanco will bo inado possible.
Tho school is now self sustaining, tho

Individual cases were brought up for
discussion, as needing assistance, oer
the rough places occasioned by illness,
or lack of ability to cope with Condi
tiu'is surrounding them.
Miss Hurd's resignation as co worker
with Mrs. Brock was read and accept
oil with regrets.
Mrs. Brock's health continues to im

engaged to fill tho vacancy made b
Miss third's going into another line of
work.
The Board adjourned to meet the first
Tuesday in June.

Speechmaking, Music, Patriotism
and a Big Dinner Features
Now that Decoration Day is past, the
end of the Commencement season u
sight, and the coming of the "good oh1
summer time" again, tho thoughts of
hundreds are upon tho picnic titno in the
shady woodlands. Maysville is going tc
hiao the biggest and best Chautauqua

body in this "'neck 'o the woods," but
fni three or four thousand citizens and
citizens of Mason, Lewis and I'loin
ing counties, when tho Fourth of .Tul
comes there is but one place of supremo
attraction -tho Old Settler's Heunion
and Picnic held annually at Ruggle
Cami) U roiimR For moro than a score
of years this annual reunion and picnic
Iris been held with increased interest
and success each year. And why? Be
cause it gives an opportunity to cole
brato our Nation's Birthday in a safe
and sauo manner at ono of nature '
beauty spots. Thoro under tho shade of
tho trees tho multitudes nssomblo te
spend a da in good fellowship, renow
nig acquaintanceships, hearing some of
tho best speakers upon a great variety
u f topics of tho day; hearing good
music, and last but not least enjoying
a lino picnic tliirtier.
For a uumber of ears Col. Win. II
Thomas of Burtonvillo has been the
nrosident of the Association. And ho
has always been on tho job. Ho has
uover noglected an opportunity to make
thi'Fo reunions a complete success. For
weeks ho has been lining up speakers
and entertainers for tho coming Fourth
Last week ho called a meeting of the
otlicors nt which timo a program wa
outlined for tho big day. Hero is a
partial list of what is in storo for all
who nttend:
Tho Ewing Cornet Band will furnish
music beginning nt 9 a. m. and playing
lAitil tho sun dies nwny in tho west.
Among tho speakers of tho day will
bo Congressman W. .T. Fields, ov-Con-gressmau

Mr. W. A. Plummer, aged 78, a former
resident of Burtonvillo, now n resident
of Portsmouth, Ohio, has promised to

recounting tho changes that havo taken
place in tho last fifty years.
Another interesting foaturo of these
annual meotings Is tho mooting of the
