The Kentucky KuISIuN.--The Courier
JournaI.C Charged with Exaggeration,

CGNCINNATI, Sept. 15.--Prominent citi-
zens of Cincinnati, who have been spend
ing several days in the KukluX region of
Kentucky, returned to the city on last
evening. They report that country quiet,
and the people ready to talk fully about
their troubles, and they claim that the ac-
counts of the affairs recently given
in letters published in the Louisville COu-
Tier Jou1uL are much exaggerated and
that the troubles will he stopped by due
course of law. One prominent lawyer
stated that he had no doubt that there was
large organization of KukluX, but that
many of them were respectable citizens,
who had no sympathy with marauders
and that within ten days full discoveries
would be made of the secrets of the order
and those who have repented Of thei-
connection with it would assist in supr
pressing it.
The idea of martial law is not relshed
by any one. A well known lawyer of Ow-
en- county asserted that there was no es-
tablished order, and that the offenders We're
merely thieves and murderers.
The Owen county authorities say that
the murder of the negro Whitestone is the
only one which has taken place in their
county. Two of the persons charged with
the murder were acquitted at preliminary
examination, and three Others escaped
from Jail a week ago, but they afterwards
gave themselves up to the authorities, de-
claring that they could prove an alibi.
Their examination is set down for to-mor-
row, and it is thought they will be bound
over, The people of Owen county assert
that all concerned in this outrage are eX-
members of the Federal army.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: The work oa our
poor houses is progressing well. AS / UNI
derstand, they are to be removed and
placed at more convenient distance to
the graveyard. Five out of sixteen of the
inmates have died since the April term of
the Court. We all believe in economy up
here, especially medical economy, although
it may for the time being, enhance the
undertaking business. The death-rate in
our poor houses in little more than three
months was near one-third or thirty-three
per cent. of the whole. This is the fastest
time on record for any similar institution,
beating the cholera at Nashville, Greene
vile, or any other point. Safe men at
figures say nc the same ratio we will be rid
Of the remainder of the inmates by the
January term, and will lessen our eX-
penses so that we may not have to sell our
railroad stock to pay for our new poor
Iouse. Jefferson county warrants have
gone down in the last year from 80 to 70
aud 50 cents Next dash they will be at
par with Con federu,e bonds.

\ Freak OF the Shah,
Knoxville by "A Chattanoosian.

Hon. H. N. Snyder writes to the Chat
tanooga Commercial from this city very
complimentary letter about our city and
its administration. After giving the price
of curbing and grading on our streets, he
says:
"All the streets Of the city are being inn
proved.
although they are doing all this work
and making all payments promptly in
cash, property is not assessed SO high,
taxes are not so high, and not so much
money is raised by taxation as in Chatta-
nOoga. The rate of taxation is only one
cent and three and OEe-fifth mills, for all
purposes. -.
1.-THE city of Knoxville has good sys-
TEN of public schools. The School Board
of the city take the scholastic population
aud their pro rata share Of the school
moneys is paid over by the county author
tiles without any question or difficulty.
1.-THE schools of the county outside OF
the city are being we'll organized and
placed in fine condition under the super
vision Of Superintendent Il. G. Karnes,
who is a very efficient officer, and brings
all his energies to the discharge OF the du-
ties of his position.
1.-The county of Knox voted a large adj
ditional tax for school purposes. The ed
ucational facilities OF this section will soon
be unsurpassed 10y those of any other por-
ton of our country. This will be a great
inducement to skilled labor and capital,
and to all the better classes Of persons seek
ing homes and establishing business in the
South.n

WASHINGTON, Sept. Ex-senator West,
of Louisiana, who is now in Washington,
in order to secure the application of inn
mediate relief to the sufferers, has obtained
from President Orten, of the Western

Instruct all the managers to send free
messages relating to the relief of the citi-
zens of Shreveport, and at the request of
the Governor or United States Senators of
Louisiana, direct contributions of money
to be raised and transferred by telegraph
without charge"
BY this action on the part of the tele-
graph company, money can be forwarded
instantly to the sufferers whereas by the
course of the mails it would require some
ten days to get there, by which time the
nfsd tfifGdhdt d t8aTti bGtsf to the HT fffle
stricken community of Shreveport, can
send it without expense by paying it in
at any Western Union Telegraph station.
Contributions are already going forward
from this point. This morning Senator

YOU please be so kind as oask Capt. Hobbs,

tain parties went to Gen. Dunlap and
asked him what he would give to get this
other candidate off. AS matter of course
Gen. Dunlap was too much of gentleman
to entertain any such method for his own
election, and consequently refused to have
anything to do with it. That same day
they went to Hobbs, and Hobbs seems to
haze been elected. Your subscriber would
like to know how that little thing worked.
L have learned from your paper how he got
out, but l want to know how he got in. |
think, however, that if you will push that
81 500 note, he will be forced to give us the
requisite information. Although L am not

my party when they allow such rotten
ness TO exist around the Capitol, as you
have exposed in the last few weeks.

know that there is one paper in the State

A COSTLY MASONIC PRESENTATION.

At recent meeting Of Baldwin Chapter, No. II,
Royal Arch Masons, of Newton, N. j., the chapter
was presented with rich andcostly High Priests
breastplate by the organizer Of the chapter M. E.
Israel Baldwin, Past Grand High Priest OF the
Grand Royal Chapter OF New Jersey, now resi-
dent OF Newark. The breastpate cost 81 500 and is
Of white corded silk, ten inches square, en-
brodered in green and gold and set with twelve
precious stones, eblemacal OF the twelve tribes of
Israel. IL Is very handsomely decorated and is
suspended by heavy gold chain; the stones are
set in gold sockets. In the encyclopaedia OF Masonry
IL is thus described "a splendid piece Of orna-
mental embroidered cloth, OF the same material of
which the ephod was made, ten inches square, and
by the Jewish High Priest on his breast, when
dressed In full sacerdotal vestments. The front was
set with twelve precious stones, In golden sockets,
arranged in four rows, three IN each row, on
one Of the twelve tribes OF Israel. On the
first row a sardius red, for judah; topaz,
pale green, for Issachar; an emerald, green, Tor
Zebuon; on the second row a carbuncle, tor
Reuben; sapphire, deep blue, for Simeon Jasper,
green clouded with white, for Gad on the third
row, q. figure, dull red, lor Eparaim; an agate,
gray, spotted with different coors, for Msnasseh;
an amethyst, purple, for Benjamin; on the fourth
row cnrysolite, pale green, for Dan an onyx,
bluesh white, Tor Asher; beryl. bueish green, Tor
Naphtali. The breastplate was double, or com
posed OF two pieces forming Kind OF purse or
bag in which, according to the Narned rabbls the
closed 1t was fastened at the four cornerst; hose
at the top to each shoulder, and golden ring
at the end Of a wfcathcd cham; those below TO
the girdlc OF the ephod, by four blue ribbons, two
at each corner This ornament was never TO be
severed from the priesty garments and 1t was
called the Memorial being designed to remind
the priest how dear those tribes should be to him
whose names he bore upon his heart. IL was also
named the Breastplate Of Judgment because 1t
was believed that by IL was discovered the judg-
ment and the VIII OF Cod or because the High
Priest who wore IL was revered as the fouptain Of
JUSTICE and put IL on when he exercised hls judi
cial capacity in matters Of great Importance which
concerned the nauon.V
