LEXINGTON. KY.
James Sellers, respected colored man
living in Prawltown, is anxious to know
whether or not he really lives in Ward No
4. He says when the time comes to pay
taxes or vote he is thoroughly convinced of
his whereabouts; but this done, his neigh
borhood seems to be forgotten He believes
the police force of the Fourth Ward eff
cient, but neglectful Of their duty. He also
thinks the occasional visit of the blue suits
would save him property and rest as he is
now compelled to sit up all night or lose
what little property he has.

| We congratulate ourselves that, instead
of drunkenness, riot and bloodshed, we are
able to say to our readers that the Fourth
in Lexington was passed in quiet and pleas
ant enjoyment The day was warm, and
until evening there was but little to attract
the attention of any one. We had splen-
did picnic at Woodland, given for the BEN
eft of laudable cause. The young people
enjoyed themselves to their hearts content
The children were happy and merry. At
night the most charming music attracted a
large crowd of the elite to our little park,
while the boys congregated on Cheap Side
to burn boxes, barrels and tire-craCkers.
