This tube had working within ii PTS

handle was drawn mp the air was ex-
hauated from tho tube and IL adhered
to the flesh, raising slight protuber-
anoo. Around this raised portion the
operator daintiiy tied bit Of scarlet
silk, and then took away his suction
machine. Tho little point OF akin that

point was adjusted SO as TO depress the
exact center Of tho cut. Then no told
me TO so away aud not touch the spot
until the next day. When came nj

acquaintance until his death. He has ever
sustained high and noble character. A
dutiful son, Il faithful husband, an affect

Lodge; became member of this Lodge in
its Infancy and remained until removed by
the Supreme Grand Master above by death,
on the 9th of October, 1888, aged 81 years, IL

the care OF Him who heals the broken and

KEESEE- & NORTHINGTON.

Hopkinsville had another fire Wednesday
morning. The fire originated about ten
O'Clock in an old stable in the rear of Gum
& Merritt's store, and is supposed to have
been the work of an incendiary. James
Bradshaw, L. F. Ellis, Thos. Green, III. G.
Ballard and M. Perry are the names of the
parties whose houses were destroyed. The
total losses aggregate Sl7,35O, about $4,000
more than the amount of insurance.
Princeton Banner: Look out for burglars
and robbers. Bolt your doors. Fasten your
windows, and better keep a good weapon
close by. Last Saturday night a burglar
don't know how many-entered inUo the
room of Mr.. Clay Coon through the window,
took his coat, pants and vest out, robbed the
pants of $50 and left them on the yard
fence and the coat and vest on the ground
by the window. Mr.. Coon and his wife were
in the room, in bed asleep, a bright coal fire
in the CRATE, and a lamp burning quite
bright. Neither of them knew of the rob-
berry until next morning.
South Kentuckian: The 1. A. & T. Rail-
road has been located as far as Cerulean
Springs. 1t will cross the Cadiz road about
twenty steps east of the corner of Henry II.
Bryant's farm, just below the West Union
church, and will enter his field on the south
east corner and run diagonally through his
farm, crossing the EddyviIle road east of the
pond in the road below the Bryson place,
about fifty yards inside of the Christian
county line, cuts off about three acres of
Blakeley's field on the right of the road, and
crosses into Trigg county in the Dunkerson
farm. A station will probably be located
on Mr.. Bryant's land, on the Eddyville
road, as it does not cross the Cadiz road on
his land, and it is understood that he will
be allowed to locate the depot in that neigh
borhood, as he is large subscriber to the
road. The points where it crosses the two
roads are about ten miles from Hopklusville
and the same distance from Cadjz.

DesperddOes on the RIO Granot

Both the American and Mexican
sides of the Rio Grande have been
for the past three or four weeks The
scene of murder and outrage The
Rio Grande here is stream at this
season so shallow that a man can
wade across, and the desperadoes
who kill or rob ON this side oflhe
river cross over to the other, and
having once passed the middle of
the current are safe. In the same
manner deSperadoes who commit
crime in Mexico come over to this
side for safety. The tedious for
malities of the extradition treaty
leave the citizens of both towns vir-
tually without redress. The mat
ter has been the talk of Paso del
Norte and Ell PasO for weeks, and
eliminated to-day in an arrange
ment by which American officers
will be allowed by the authorities
on the other side of the river TO
cross over and take their man
where they find him, and Mexican
officers will be allowed to do the
same on this side. Though this is
only a municipal measure it is
warmly approved by all respectable
American and Mexican citizens,
who feel that it gives them IA secu-
rity which, without it, they could
not hope to enjoy.
