A Good Word for Governor Knott'


Governor Knott deserves praise
for breaking a rule established by
his predecessors-by which all gam
bling fines and forfeitures due the
State were RENTED regular and al
most without exception. In Louis
vile the vice was virtually licensed
gamblers were regularly indicted and
fined J.; the law officers collected theil
share, and the States share was re-
mitted by the Governor. For years
before Governor Knott was installed
not a dollar of fines was paid into
the State Treasury by Louisville
gamblers, with the exception o.
$2,205.95 in 1881. His predecessor!
pardoned the gamblers by wholesale
During his term $4,000 has beer
paid into the State Treasury from
this source. Honor to whom honol
is due.

the opening chapters of new serial,
by the Editor of the Arkansaw Trav-
e'er entitled "Len Gansett; A Story

will be presented in the authors hap
piest style. The short stories which
have long been a feature of the Tray
eler have been widely copied, and
"Annie Green" the serial now run

work of wider scope and stronger

and every heart will beat sympathet-

on steel, and colored by hand, is a
marvel of beauty and taste. A col
ored pattern in Berlin-work is also
given-a most exquisite affair, that
would sell at retail for fifty cents. In
addition there are some fifty other
illustrations, including several other
very fine ones in all article OIL "Dam-

better than ever. Two thrilling now
elets are begun: "The Millionaire's
Daughter" by Ann S. Stephens, and
'"rho- Cedar Swamp mystery" by
