Editor Herald:
As you have no correspondent from
this place, | ask space for "a few lines.
We have one Of the pretti-sl little
cities here in Western Kentucky. The
location is not only "a beautiful one, hut
healthy one. II contains four nice
churches, an opera house, skating rink,
blacksmith shops, tobacco aud buggy
factories, business houses, and count
less number Of pretty ladies. The
dwelling houses are no, crowded togeth-
er as in many towns and cities, but
almost every house contains II nice
yard and garden, AS if there was room
enough in this world for everybody
Then we have any amount Of mineral
water, which insures IA person long
and happy life. And our school build
ings, they are just splendid We have
two good schools here, one in charge of
Prof. smith, and the Normal, which is
in charge of Prof. Cheek. Students
are coming in almost every week.
Some live in this State and some in
others. The school, | think, will prove
very beneficial TO the town, for goOdly
number have moved in for the purpose
OF educating their children.
Prohibition, which has been the
cause OF good deal of excitement, has
full sway now but il took filming and
failing To stop the sale OF whisky. Pro-
hibitiOn passed last August. but 10y a
small majority aud the Anti Prohibi-
tionists didn't think that the other side
was strong enough to make their new
law success, but il proved otherwise. II
is true some of them do miss their
tOddy now and then, but we have had
IA very quiet place ever since il took
effect.
Circuit Court has Teen going on for
the past two weeks. IN tell you they
wake things up down here. It's no
laughing matter to come before jury
here to answer for a crime. We all
listened at,entively Ia the trial Of
Champ Gist, who WAS charged with
the murder of young Winstead, on the
eth Of last August. Ii was one of the
greatest criminal cases ever tried here,
for both the defendant and the prose
cution had able attorneys. The de
PENDANT had the Hon Daniel Voorhees,
from Ind. the Hon. Polk LaffoOn, Of
this place, and other eminent lawyers.
The evening that Senator Voorhees,
spoke. an unusual crowd gathered in
and near the court house to hear and
see Indiana's greatest lawyer. He
made quite an able speech, which lasted
for two and a half hours. There Is
something remarkable in his appear
ance. You have read Of large headed
men, hut he has head about as large
as the largest; and his large head COW
cred with long, coarse hair mOtruding
little above his high collar, reminded
one that he was in the midst of a
Fourth of July picnic in the time of
Henry Clay. Gist was sentenced to
two years in the penitentiary, but IA
public orinion favors his acquittal,
don't think he will serve his time.
Respectfully,
