MONKEY3 START RIOT IN
CHURCH BY BITING GIRL.
The interest of Stanley McCormick,
millionaire, in nervous ejections and
tit subsequent purchase of a monkey
for study, led to a riot of nerves in
church here. Tha monkey wan

Alma Barnes in tha hand and leg.
Then it charged several other per

'ime the accident occurred and wai
ir.lv a few minutes too late.
The broken wire was that of the
Home Telephone Company. Manager
Isaacs had been doing some work,
with an assistant, on the line when
he received word that his trouble
.-nan had been injured In another
part of the city, and was calling
for him. Without waiting to com
plete his work, he hurried to the
side of the injured man. His as
sistant was supposed to stay on the
job but left to follow him to s?e the
injured man.
Mr. Isaacs was on bis way back to
fix the broken wire when the ac
cident cccurred, as he realized it
should be attended to before the
school children came out. He was
only few minutes too late.
Workman Barfly Hurt.
The trouble man, who was ser.-
uualy injured, was Wra. McCulley,
son of Jas. McCulUy, well-known
Vunlnejs man of Clay. Young Mc
Culley was at work on a pole, when
lie came in contact w.th a live wire
!I was hurled from the top of the
pole to the ground and was uncon
soil. us for some moments. He is
horribly burned on the hands and
art:. s, but will probr.bly recover.
The Civic League has given sever
al years of self-sacrificing labor Ir.
assisting the authorities to make
Hopkinsville bisrger. better, bus
ier and more beautiful town, and for
the first time asks that other citi
sens make' voluntary contribution to
an ambulance for the French front
which work has been undertaken
by the State Federation of Women's
clubs. The club women of the state
are giving freely of their time and
means to every cause connected with
the war, but the women of the Ken
incay federation want concrete
expression of their patriotism to
which they can point with pride.
lo finance this each woman Is
asked to give 25 cents. The Hop
kinsville Civic League would like to
do more than this and ao asks other
patriotic and public spirited citixens
to increase this to the sum of $100.00
which would be worthy gift to the
state work and to tha nation. Sums
from 25 cents up will be srladly ac
cepted . No extended canvaa will be
made but Mrs. II. M. Frankel as
chaJrasaa of the committee will re
ceive contributions. It is hoped that
people will respond gladly to. this
bit of effort.
The state president, Mrs. Lowndes
has started the subscription with
125.00 in honor of her son whose
health will not allow him . to go.
So many are similarly situated or
have no sons to offer that the fund
should be greatly augmented with
contributlona in place of service.
There are pienty of brave and will
ing men to risk their lives driving
these ambulances over the shell-
swept roads under the hail of enemy
fire to carry their catr.rades from the
trenches to the hospitals and dressing
stations. It seems that we should
give freely Indeed to the convey
ances to be used in this work of mer
cy and necessity. We know that 95
per cent of those who reach the care
of the doctors and nurses recover,
and it is up to these who cannot
go to send these messengers of sal
vation.
Let us have hearty responses to this
call, help our own boys "over there"
and give the club women of the state
and our local Civic organization
something to be proud of when the
roll is called of generous and time'.y
givers.

PLENTY OF LASTING SNOW
! WILL SAVE WHEAT CROP.
(By International News Service.)
Washington, March 8. rray for
deep snow and plenty of it until well
along into the spring. It is snow,
says the Department of Agriculture,
which will save or lose this year's
Winter wheat crop.
Until late in December the wheat
crop looked very bad the worst in
yean. Deep snow, which the late
James J. Hill always referred to as
the Northwest's bet protector and
fertilizer hns vastly improved the
aituation. If enough stays on and
the ground is not uncovered before
the heavy frost period is over, the
'crop will be a fair success. Planting
is 2,000,000 acres greater than ever
before.
