IN AID OF THK
Public Library Of Kentucky.

CARD TO THE PUBLIC.
The MANAGEMENT have determined to have the
drawing Of the FIFTH AND LAST GIFT CON-
CERT OF THE PUBLIC LIBRARY OF KEN
TUCKY, ON THE
3OTH DAY OF NOVEMBER NEXT.
We believe now that all the tickets will be sold,
and that the drawing Will be q full one, but
whether all sold or not the drawing viii never
the1ess certainly come OF on the day appointed.
The special object OF this card Is to call meeting
OF the ticket-boders at Public Library hall on the
18th OF November, to make Arrangements in con-
neetion with the committee appointed by the trus-
tees tosuperntend the counting OF the tags repre-
ssnting the numbers OF tickets SOLD. While there
Is no actual necessity for the presence Of ticket
holders, as under our arrangements the interests
of all are equally cared for, yet at the same time
would greatly prefer thatas many OF those inter-
ested would attend this meeting and see each
for himself how perfectly fair and impartial the
Distribution must be.
Every arrangement has been made for the draw
ing-but little more than month remains for the
sale of the remainder OF the tickets and whatever
Is done must be done promptly.

WhetIiDg Retail MarEct.

SECOND WARD Wednesday Morning.
There was very fair market this
morning, the supply being excellent
but the demand from some unaccouut-
able cause, was poor perhaps the
increased heat and the large supply
without falling off in price had some
thing to do with it.
PRoDuCE-Butter sold from 90 to 80
cents according to quality, and supply
plenty. Eggs, supply scarce at Is cts per
dozen.
Chickens, (old) IS cts a piece.
VEGETABLES AND FRUITs.-PriCes
were as follows: Parsley two punches
for cts cuoumbers 5 to 10 Cts apiece
rhubarb 3 lunches for 10 cts; spring
onions lunches for 10 cts
radishes 5 cts q bunch
kale sprouts sold at 10 cts
per peck; lettuce 10 cts per quarter
peck; asparagus good supply,
and sold from three 10 four punches
Tor 20 Cts spinach 10 CTS per peck
potatoes (old) 40 cts per peck ; new
so cts per peck; tomatoes 25
cts per dozen; good apples were scarce
and sold at Is cts per peck bananas
4 for % cts; pine apples from 20 to 40
cents apiece; oranges and lemons
so to IS cts per dozen, according to

Plants and flowers form quite
business, nearly every one attending
market has something for sale, They
range in prices from 10 to SO cts. There
seems to be a good demand for the
choice plants, and almost everybody
returning from market has a plant OF
some kind or flower pot under their
arma.

A CARD.

NAO khc8ntCAs
A publication in the New York pa
pers of Tuesday morning, 26tb, calcu'
lated to damage my reputation and do
me great injustice, is my excuse for
asking you to publish the following
statement:
While in the City of New York on
Monday, 18th inst, friend asked me
to loan him $40. 1 told him l did not
have that amount of money, but had a
check for $75, which he could use and
give me the money next morning,
which he said would answer his pur-
pose. l gave him the check endorsed.
We walked some distance down Broad
way together, when / called in the
Pennsylvania Railroad Co.'S office, he
passing on.
He had not gone far when be was
met by man seemingly well acqualnt-
ed with him, calling him by
his proper name and naming his town,
&C., (Which is an old trick which is
well KNOWN the sharper showing a
ticket which he said he was informed,
by Beech & Co., lottery agents, had
drawn a prize, and induced my friend
to accom- pany him to their office, where,
before leaving, he was relieved OF the
check and some fifteen dollars in mon
Il y.
He hunted me up and we at once
| went to the police precinct nearest the
place, procured detachment of police,
and arrested one of the swiIdlers, the
check being found in his possession and
surrendered to the officer. He was
taken to the station and from there TO
the tombs where, on preliminary ex-
animation he was committed in default
OF $4,000 bond.
Twas called as a witness to identity
the check and took prominent part
iu having tbs fellow brought to justice.
The Court retained the check for the
prosecution OF the offender.
My name being entered as one Of the
prosecuting witnesses, and found on the
check, was copied by the reporters Of
the evening papers as the party victim
lied, and l presume the morning papers
copied the report. was never in a
gaming house OF any kind in my life,
OF which l am sure my friends are well
convinced. The publicity given and
the error in publishing my name as the
party victimized. is exceedingly annoy
ing to me. l therefore hope my friends
will disseminate this correction.

on Thursday last.
"WEDNESDAY OF last week forty shares
OF stock OF the First National Bank Of
Washington were sold at s65 rs and
s6550 per share. Considering that
only 1880 have been paid in, and
that dividends are declared on thai ba-
sis, S65. so may be looked upon as a
pretty good price.
Our friend, JAS Kelsey, OF Amwell
township, has come oil the finest sheep
we have heard OF in this section. He
has 8 two.year old Leicester buck which
has shorn III pounds CT wool and
weighs 2l2 pounds; also lamb two
months old that weighs &c pounds.

OWING to the inability OF District At
torney Baird to be in attendance at the
approaching June session Of the Board
OF Pardons Che having several railroad
cases to attend TO at that time) the
hearing of the application for pardon
in the case OF Henry Brieeland, has
been postponed to the first Tuesday OF
July.
MICHAEL McKINNoN, aged go years,
s months and q days, died at his resi-
dence in Columbiana county, Ohio, on
the 9th Of April. In 1898, when he
was about sixteen years OF age, he was
L. S. mail carrier from the town OF
Washington, Washington county, Pa,
via Georgetown, Beaver county, to
Chsrlestown (now Wellsburg) Brooke
county, West Virginia. From George:
town to Chsrlestown his route was
along the Ohio river. At that day
there was no road from Georgetown 10
Cbarlestown. His way was over path
in the wilderness. The mail was car
ried on horseback. The small streams
that emptied into the Ohio were often
dangerous in crossing, as frequently he
had to swim his horse-the only re.
sort when crossing the streams when
at high tide.

A LONG VIsIT.-Y esterday morning,
about 10 o'clock, lady and gentleman
went down to the glass works OF Hobbs,
Brockunier & Co and asked to be TAX
en- into their coal bank. The request
was readily granted and the visitors
were piloted through the bank to their
complete satisfaction, after which they
started on their return out. When they
got near the entrance they were very
much surprised to find the orifce in the
hillside completely closed up and o.
course preventing their exit. 1t seems
that shortly after the lady and gentle
man went into Inc bank there was q
large fall OF soapstone, which entirely
blocked up the entrance. Men were
put 10 work and by two o'clock in the
afternoon enough OF the debris was re-
moved to permit the lady ard gentle-
men 10 get out and zee the light OF day
They had only intended to make a
formal csll, but much against their will
prolonged the visit to four hours.
