Shocking Outrage on 2 Little Girl.

WALTON, Ky, Sept. 7.-Saturday evsaing the little six-year-old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Lunesford, who live on the farm of Squire Hind mile and halt west of here, was sent out into the orchard to gather some apples. She appeared at the house few minutes later in company with the squire's hired hand, a black brawny negro named Sam Scales, eighteen years of age. The negro hung around few moments and then went away. Mrs. Lunesford noticed that the child had been crying and asked her what was the matter. In an innocent way she told her mother that the hired man had thrown her down in the orchard and had violated her. An examination showed that the child's story was true and that she was in frightful condition. Scales was arrested and taken to Burlington and locked up. There is a probability that the brute will be lynched.

 Remonstrance of Joel A. Sperry and sixty others against the building of the boulevard sewer was read
 Alderman Spreyer moved to table the re- monstrance.
 Alderman Benton moved to amend by re- ferring the remonstrance to the Committee on Sewers.
 This brought Alderman Spreyer to his feet, who made an earnest speech in opposi- tion to the reference. He said the sewer had been ordered, the contract given out and the work had actually commenced. These gen tlemen had had ample opportunity to be heard, but had not moved until the Board of Public Works had been peremptorily ly ordered to commence the sewer.
 Alderman Benton said that while he was in favor of the construction of the sewer, yet he thought the Board should be courteous enough to refer the matter to the committee. Aldermen Kennedy, Daley, Brown and Graves spoke ill opposition to the reference on the ground that these gentlemen had had ample time to remonstrate against the sewer A motion to indefinitely postpone the con- 1 sideration of the remonstranoe was then passed.
 Report of the Board of Public Works giv- 1 ing layout of Liberty street, from Washing | ton street to Congress avenue, was read. It
