describing the remarkable mathematical feats before that body of a Tamil boy of 16 named Arumogan The youth knows t Ilttlo English except the names of the numerals and mathematical expressions He is abnormal not only in mind but in body for he has six fingers on each handand six toes on each foot Personally he believes that his mathematical genius is a gift of the god Subramana He says that when he was 8years old he was taken to the Karthlgay festival at 6Tlruparankundramr and that in tho night he dreamed that the god came to him and wrote the word mathematics on JIbis tongue and that In the morning ho had 12 fin gers and 12 toes Instead of the nor mal number At the same time he declares he found himself suddenly possessed of great calculating powers Among the tests to which he was submit

CAR SHORTAGE Congressman A Io Stanleyr Appears for the Miners At Frankfort GOVKLECT COX TALKS PLAIN Frankfort Ky Dec liRepre sentative A O Stanley of the Sec ond Congressional district this afternoon In a flood of oratory pre rented the complaint of the Ohio county miners against the Illinois Central Railroad to the State Rail road Commission Mr Stanley followed the argument made by At torney R V Fletcher for the rail road In relation to causes of car shortage at certain mines on theI C railroad Mr Stanley said I much regret that we aro here to talk and not to act that hero In the presence of their hunger and their nakedness Wo offer them not relief but condolence to parade conditions in Kentucky before the public In the public press These men Ignorant of the law and deluded by the powers which railroad commissions in other States exer cise come and lay before you their pitiable condition and all this com mission can do Is to investigate the situation and seeg to lay It before the sympathes of the Illinois Cen tral Railroad Company that It may through altruistic motives grant the relief they pray Ho admitted that Kentucky has never Invested Its commission with power to compel railroads to fulfill their duties and deplored the fact In flowing periods Mr Stanley pictured strong men at McHenry begging not for bread but for workand declared the most es sential and Inherent power of a railroad commission Is to compel carriers to perform their natural duties to the shipping public Declaring Ita fact that Kentucky is helpless In the face ora situa tion that goes Into the very essence of a railroads obligation as a com mon carrier Mr Stanley caid he would devote his time to showing how other States have protected themselves and read extracts from laws In other numerous States At the close of his petition Mr Stanley said a complaint of dis crimination will be made by amend ing the petition and Mr Stanley de clared that the commission has the power to exact retribution if such a state of facts Is shown If you cant grant relief to these miners let us have a flood of light on the situation he said In conclusion The hearing before the Railroad Commission of the complaint of Ohio county miners that they have been reduced to a state bordering on starvation by reason of theIlli nois Central not furnishing coal cars for the mines began this morning Gov McCreary was pres ent and a large crowd including a number of miners thronged the room Congressman A O Stanley represents the miners and Supt Egan with a corps of clerks and AttorneysJohn Dulan and R V Fletcher represent the railroad Attorney Fletcher said the situa tion In Ohio county is not different from that which exists all over the country Tho Illinois Central he said has 23000 coal cars and 9 000 of these are in the service of other carriers The Illinois Cen tral he said originates coal trade its cars are sent on the lines of oth er carriers and retained by them and the Interstate Commerce Com mission will not let the road lay an embargo against lines keeping Its cars Mr Fletcher then took up the method of distributing cars and said the company adopted the pol icy of distributing cars on the ba sis of past performance but the Illinois Railroad Commission compell ed the company as far as Inter State shipments In Illinois were concerned to distribute cars on the basis of mine capacity and that Is the basis on which they are op orated I Here Chairman Finn Interrupted to ask Mr Fletcher if the objection Hair Falling Thtei gop It I Stop thaw You daiIo It with Ayers Nair Vigor Doe sot eelor ue hair AM Yew Doctors 4 ar- b RIDNEYPiDLISI0 to the distribution on tho basis of past output was not because of a complaint that the company had furnished certain mines coal cars the year around and discriminated against others He said he had heard of such objection Mr Baker of Central City a miner asked Mr Fletcher if tho Central City coal mine and the Graham mine of Muhlenberg county were not run ning full time while other mines of the same companies are Idle He said this Is so but the railroad company has contracts with those mines to take their output for Its own use and It Is the practice to get Its own coal fiovKIcct Cox Talks Washington Dec 6Gov elect James M Cox of Ohio said today I In response to a question about how he as Governor would handle a sit uation like that prevailing among the miners at McHenry Kentucky Why I would cancel the rail I roads charter H0 added that the laws of Ohio gave him power thus summarily to punish a railroad that

of packages weighing not more than 11 pound which must not be more than 72 inches in length and breadth combined Up to four ounces there will be a flat rate of one coat par ounce or part thereof

nearly four miles The ditch wlll cost close to 20000 and the cost will ho paid by the land owners whose land will be benefited The railroad company opposed tho ditch on the ground that the survey
