Captain Jack Jewett, Robin Mosby and
Ben Bradshaw we're travelling from Vir-
ginia to Kentucky on horseback, as the
mode then was Captain Jewett was
large, 6ne-looking man, and fair speci-
men of the sort of men that gave char
acter to the period that embraces the
early historyof Kentucky. AS the three
rode along their attention was attracted
by angry words that came from o cabin
on the roadside. Words were succeeded
by blows, when Captain Jewett said:
Lets ride up and see what this fight is
about" They galloped up to the cabin,
when, loI it was man and his better
half having q regular "set-to," and she
was getting the bettg-half Of it, Hold

the h lesson he will never forget.
With one blow of his fist the man laid
PROSTATE on the floor. The good wife
looked at her husband a moment, and
then at Jewett, when, reaching back she
caught up large, long-handled frying
pan and letting drive at Jewetts head,
the bottom went out and the rim went
over his head and around his neck, such
was the force Of the blow. All efforts
failing to get the remnant of the frying
pan from around Jewett's neck, he had
to wear it for about five miles on his
road, when Gle, in the hands Of o
Blacksmith, released him. We will not
stop to point the moral. Bradshaw and
Mosby settled In Mercer county, and
Jewett near Mount Sterling. He was the
grandfather of Mrs. Dick Meniiee.

Fact, and figures connected WITH tile
import of brendstuIl4 Into this state
from the northwest should put capital
lists to thinking. The declaration that
this section of the State IA second Ia
none In the Union, In point of prodnc'
tlveness and general adaptnhllliy To
the growth of grain, Is borne ont 10y
the immense crop marketed here the
present season, and, with anything
like favorable crop year. will be
more fully proved by next autumn.
With these facts before us, II IL not
much to the credit of the energy and
enterprise of resident capitalists that
one firm alone shipped to this state
from st. Louis last year iifty-live thou
sand barrels of flour, all of which was
Consumed in Northern Texas. That
the importations Of this article the
coming year will be anything near rs
great as those of last Is not to he sup
posed, but the truth is that Texas

it from abroad-shoGld send flour by
sea TO northern and foreign ports in
stead of depending on st. Louis for
bread. With milling facilities
in Dallas and other portions
of the State, the outflow
of this Important product of the agri-
cultural industry Of the land would
take different direction and bring II
greater return to the producer than is
had in shipping wheat nj one hundred
dollars the carload to st. Louis, or fur
ther east at proportonately higher
rates. Build mills and keep at home
the profits made by millers to whom
the wheat is shipped at least, save
double freights incurred hy sending
wheat abroad and bringing flour here.
Upon manufactures depend the perma-
nent prosperity OF n place like Dallas,
and for no branch of industry is there
an opening here as for tirst-class flour
ing-mills. Let those who have money
to invest consider the matter.

Mention was made in the afternoon
edition of The HERALD yesterday OF
the sudden death of Mr.. Charles Cow
art, a prominent and esteemed attor-
ney of our city. From the various re-
ports ailoat Ms regards his death, the
reporter CLEANS and presents the fol-
lowing as about correct: For some
days past he had been suffering from
nervous affection, and resorted freely
to the use ofopiates for relief Mon
day evening, appearing to act some
what strangely, he was conveyed in Il
hack to his residence, and Doctors
ThurstOn and Graham called in to
minister to him. Administering Il
slight opiate, they left him and re-
turned about 8 o'clock at night to
find him Stun bering heavily. Efforts
TO awake him proving unavailing, n
galvanic battery was applied to his
person, which had the effect of resusci
tatins him for few minutes, when he
dozed Oft into sleep from which lie
never awoke. Mr.. Cowart leaves Il
young wife, to whom The HERALD, as
well as n host of sympathizing friends,
extends its warmest sympathy in her
bereavement.
