Fifth and Last Gift Concert,
IN AID OF THE
PUBLIC LIBRARY OF KENTUCKY 4!
A CARD TO THE PUBLIC.

The management have determined to have
the drawing of the Fifth and Last Gift Con-
cert of the Pal lie Library of Kentucky, 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 are sold or not the drawing will never
theless certainly come of on the day ap-
pointed.
The special object of this card is to cali
meeting of the ticket. holders at Public Libra
ry Hall, on the goth of November, to make
arrangements in connection with the commit
tee appointed by the Trustees to superintend
the counting of the tags representing the
number of tickets sold. While there 10 no
actual necessity for the presence Of ticket
holders, as under our arrangements the inter-
ests of all are equally cared tor, yet at the
same time would greatly prefer that as many
of those interested as can, would attend this
meeting and see each for himself how perfect
ly fair and impartial the distribution must be.
Every arrangement has been made for the
drawing-but little more than a month re-
mains for the sale Of the remainder Of the
tickets, and whatever is done must be done
promptly. THos. E. BRAMLErTE,
Agent and Manager.

A story of Three Children.

In May last railroad conductor lifted a
bundle of old clothes from the cars to the
depot platform at Red Wing. This bundle
had come all the way from Chicago, and in
side of it was a little four year old girl, with
a basket in her hard, to which was attached
a card, stating that her name was Minnie
Mead, and that she was to be left at Red
Wing till called for by her father, George
Mead. After the cars went crashing away
in cloud of smoke and dust the loungers
scattered, and the little maid was left alone
60 talk to herself, and "make believe she
was eating bread and butter AS the day
wore on this barmecide fair gave out, and she
tOddled about, gazing wistfully at the strange
faces of the teamsters who came occasionally
to fetch luggage from the depot, until finally,
realizing that no one wanted her, she began
to sob. At last, as night came on, mo-
gherly woman heard there was lone. for
gotten child crying at the depot. When
George Mead came several days afterward
for the little bundle brute mother had
shipped to him, he found Minnie very well
provided for, and it would have been better
If he had left her there. But he took her
back to MinneOla, and placed her with the
other little wretches whom their mother
had abandoned. Minnie and Della, her
three-year old sister, aud Emma, who was
but six, we're put in charge of another sis
ter who was but sixteen, in an old dllapl-
dated building, and then their father went
away they knew not where. By and by
the Oldest sister went out into the country
to work for farmer Sometimes she came
and left them food but there, through all
the nights and through al the fierce thunder
storms of summer, these deserted babies hud
died together on an old Gnilt, with no one APP
parently to take care Of them. An aunt
who lived not far away took no notice of
them, and few days ago the county judge
learned that three little girls were starving
in that old building. He found them COW
ering in the old ruin, naked, weak and per-
isl ing for food. The first he offered them
they ate ravenously, but their famshed
stomachs would not retain it. They had
torn some old calico into strips, tied it to an
old pewter mug, and with this they had
managed to draw from an uncnrbed well
the only refreshment they had tasted for
days and days. If some neighbor had not
relented at the sight of their wan faces and
told the county judge about it, only day
or two more would have elapsed before the
rats would have been fighting over their
little corpses. Minneola would be q good
field for Christian missiOnaries.--Nissomf

A Very Romantic Story.

A correspondent of the st. Louis Dispatch
has sent the following document, which, he
says, was given to him by native of
Maine, who was familiar with the circum-
stances of the murder therein detailed who
knew the murderer personally, who was an
officer in a Maine regiment during the war,
and who, after the war, removed to West
ern Missouri and engaged in a profitable
and extensive business:
] More than twenty years ago V. p. Cool.
idge, u young physician of excellent stand
ing in the city of Augusta, Maine, muir
dered Edward Mathews, rich cattle
drover, by enticing him alone into his office
to take drink of brandy, which he had
mixed with prussic acid and then to make
sure work of the man who b d befriendh
him on many occasions, he beat him on the
head with d Ratchet until life was extinct
The body was discovered, and Coolidge was
arrested on suspicion, and after "a long and
exciting trial, and upon the direct evidence
OF young student of his by the name of
Flint, he was convicted and sentenced to
one years solitary imprisonment, and then
to be hung. During his confinement his
sister, young and beautiful girl. WAS per-
lnitted to visit him, but his health gradually
gave way, and before the year expired his
death was announced, he was buried, and
tor the time forgotten. The warden
of the prison resigned his position,
married the young lady above referred to,
and moved to parts unknown. Not long
after the gold excitement opened in Califor
nia q gentleman who was conversant with
the case, and who had followed Others to
the gold mines, sent back his deposition
that he had seen and conversed with V. F.
Coolidge. This caused considerable excite
ment, and the body supposed to be his was
eNhumed, and his own father testified that
il was not his son. Officers were at once
put upon his tracks by Mathews friend but
were unsuccessful, and until few DAYS
since nothing has ever been heard of the
murderer. Recently a party travelling
through Missouri met a gentleman who
knew the early history of the matter, and
was at the trial, and he stated he had met
Coolidge frequently within the last two
years, travelling under an assumed name;
that he recognized him at sight, and
charged him with being the man; that he
at first denied it, but finally acknowledged
his identity. and informed him of all the
important facts connected with the escape,
as follows: He ate very sparingly, feigned
from Portland and inferred as his remains,
and he was furnished with money and
started for New Orleans, where he re-
manned but short time and left, and since
that time has been travelling almost con-
stantly, never stopping long in any one
place, and the gentleman referred to as
having met him in the northern part of
this State gave it as his positive belief that,
from the description of the leader of the
Iowa train robbers, it was NO other than
the escaped murderer.
