house, and we will guarantee satisfaction.
The Grand Juke Alexis has skipped
Cairo and makes his appearance at LOU
svlle to-day. This will be great dis
appointment to the Carotes rs each of
the councimen (who were to turn out
in body had borrowed clean shirt,
pair of socks, and paper collar for the
occasion; the time and expense of clean
ing up the big pump will be thrown away,
and the neat, fowery address prepared by
John Oberly will be wasted. We would
remind the religious editor Of the BULLY
TIN that this Is world Of disaprointments
and aggravations, and we would also im-
press upon him the improperly Of using
any kuss words on this Occasien.-ken-
tuckian.
Mr.. Oberly, after ascertaining that
Alexis had "gone back on Cairo" lett for
st. Louis to wear off his disappointment.
Jack Winter says he is one shirt ahead
anyhow.

story frame building opposite John
Schcers hall, where he is prepared TO fur
masks on the shortest notice.
Feb. 2-dlw.
Yesterday morning when the steady
going portion Of our community opened
their eyes TO the dawn Of day and their
ears to the sounds Of busy life, the snow
covering every inanimate thing Of the
outdoor world WAS surprise to them.
Softly, quietly, without any premonitory
symptoms the evening before, it had come
down, down, down, all night long, and
when morning came, each fence and post
and chimney was capped with snow. Like
. soft carpet, 1t covered every inch Of
ground, and lay in smooth, white I'M
broken mass on every roof-tree. And all
through yesterday it fell, now blown by the
wind, now shooting into corners and by
ways and now descending in = straight
limo from its airy home, scarcely ceasing
once in Its downward fight, and last night
Cairo boosted Of a snow fall Of four to 81,
inches deep.
