A Celebrated Kentucky Rifle.

The skill of the old Kentucky hun
tiers is a matter of history, and the pithy
sayings of these men have passed into
proverbs. The shot gun was unknown
in frontier life, or if known, looked
upon with contempt The bear, the
deer and the wild turkey were the game
that the old hunters went in quest of :;
but when they could not be found, the
rifle was sighted at a squirrel, and the
ball sent whizzing through the head
To hit a squirrel in any other place than
the head was the sign of poor marks
man, and poor marksmen were held at
a great discount by the hardy pioneers.
But times have greatly changed. The
old hunters are fast being gathered into
the fold of death, and n new race of
shooters have come upon the carpet.
The larger game has disappeared before
the advanced tide of civilization, so
that a rife is of very little practical
value now. Birds, which cleave the air
on rapid wing, are the things that excite
the enthusiasm of the sportsman, and in
order to cut them down in a sportsman
like way, the shot gun is called into
requisition. Notwithstanding that the
times have altered so much, it is pleas
ant to drift through the "reminiscences
of pioneer life, and to recall the glorious
reign of the rife. One of the most
celebrated shots of Kentucky is DIR. G..
Graham. His aim was next to infallible,
and in his younger days he killed as
effectively rs long as at short range
The Louisville COltrier-JOuy7lai tells us
that he could ring the bell or take the
bulls eye every shot at distance of
two hundred yards, while turkey stood
little chance of retaining life if he
drew bead on it at four hundred yards.
For half a century the doctor used a
favorite rifle of primitive make, which
he christened Blucher The gun was
always kept in the very best condition,
and he loved it as fondly as he could
have loved a child. The barrel was
thirty-three inches long, and the bore
nine-sixteenths of an inch, carrying
thirty-two balls to the pound. The
doctor is now an old man, and has be-
queathed his rifle to posterity He has
placed it in the museum at Louisville,
and it hangs side by side with the rifle
that proved such terror to the Indians
in the hands of Daniel Boone. 1t is
well to treasure up these relics of
frontier life, for they are part of the
history of the State that once was
looked upon by the civilized world rs
" the dark and bloody ground.

Medical BIunders.

From the period when surgeons applied their
wide-awakc age, the medical profession has often
unwittingly taken side with Disease In its conflicts
with the human system. Even yet In spite of the
teachings Of centuries of experience, some physi-

seriously exhausted by sickness, with powerful
