ASHLAND, Ky, May 1Sth.-Ashland is
1t present noted for its dusty streets and
payemeuts, which make all cry out, "Oh,
Tor a few genial May showers, to cool the
atmosphere and settle the dust"
1t Is reported acre this morning that
Hon. W. c. Ireland and Capt. Weiss have
purchased the Big Sandy Herdld. With
these gentlemen at its head, the Herald is
bound To be 4 success.
One of the most amusing incidents that
has been seen in Ashland for some time,
was our town Marshal rolling a drunken
man to the lookup in wheelbarrow on
lcst Saturday evening. Ii was highly
amusing, as large crowds followed in tie
rear Of the vice barrow, whilst other
crowds thronged the street corners to see
them pass.
Our friend Dr. Martin left Ashland this
morning. 10 be absent n week. lie will
be very much missed, no doubt, by hia
many PATENTS during that time.
Our friend, ". 5 Mckitrick, returned
TO Ashland on Saturday evening last with
young bride, from llebbardsvlile. Ohio.
Mr. McKitnck il the son Of an eminent
physician in Ohio, and is engaged in the
Grocery business In this place his vie,
formerly Miss Adele Armstrong, oi heb
bardsy,ile, Ohio, is quite IN accomplished
lady, having just completed her educa-
ton at one OF the large first-class North
eru schools, and is Of one of the FIRST fam
lilies in Ohio-her father being among tine
largest Of the cattle dealers Of that State.
TIE young couple have the best wishes Of
the community Tor their success in life.
Nav their path be strewed with flowers,
and may they ever be happy in each 9TH
er's love. The brass hand of Ashland
treated them 10 q nice serenede Oh Satur-
day eve.
Messrs. Powell 4 Geiger are e1cavating
this week Tor the purpose Of building a
fine three-story brick store-house, for their
business. which has increased so rapidly
as to compel them to build much larger
house.
One OF the largest liquor dealers in the
place clos d ont last week ard shipped
his liquor away, promising most faith
fully lever to engage in the whiskey tiaf,
nc again. This is quite victory for the
temperance crusaders. They evidently
feel il, and are pressing the work. More

But there Is cause to feel thank

SEWING MACHINES.

FAMILY SEWING
MACHINE.

The Remington Sewing Machines are
rapidly becoming generalsfasorites and
gaining favor in every household where
they are introduced, While it is not our
purpose to run down any Sewing Machine,
we do claim that our Machines are so com.
plete as to overcome all the principal OBJ
jections that are found in the Shuttle Sew.
ing Machines That which has been long
sought after by probably every Sewing
Machine Company in the land, has been
obtained in our Machines; that is an
even, round, bird's-eye stitch on all kind.
Of goods, coarse or fine, without the use
of Cog Wheel Gears, Rotary Cams or
Levers, working silent and smooth while
in motion, is positive proof that it will
continue to run well for years without e1.

REASONS WHY
THE REMTNG TON FAMILY SEW.

ING MACHINES ARE SUPERB
OR TO ALL OTHERS:
lst- Their sIMPLICITY.-The use Of
them is very easily acquired, and any
girl Of ordinary intelligence is capa-
bic of keeping them in order.
End he CONSTRUCTION OF the NJ
chine is such that il may be run at
higher rate Of speed THAI any Shut
tie Machine now in the market. In
factories where the speed has been
registered, over 900 stitches per min
ute have been attained with ease.
3d-Their DURABfEPTY.-Being 20
strong in all their parts, and fitted
with great mechanical nicetv, and be-
ing free from the harsh, jarring move
ments and friction, 50 common in in
ferior machines, they will wear q long
time withour repair Of any kind.
4th.-Tbeir ADAPTABILITY-By q
simple change Of the needle and
thread, they will sew the finest cam
brio or the heaviest leather All INC
various kinds of boots and shoes'
buck-skin sewing, clothing, caps
STAYS, shirts, NANTES and dress ma
king can be done with equal facility
5th.-The sHUTTLE-Being large, it
will carry great quantity Of thread
thus saving, in a great meaeurc, the
trouble Of filing the bobbins.
6th.-The means Of getting at the requir-
ed TENSION on the Threads is 80
simpis and complete, that an even
back-stich on BOTH SIDES Of the mate
rial (which will not rip or ravel) can
be readily obtained.
7th.-They will SOW with equal facility
Silk, Twist, Linen Thread and com.
mon Spool Cotton.
ssh.-They have no rotary cams, cog
wheels or lever arms to make noise,
run hard or to get out Of order.
