County Politics.

The subject of county officers is
already beginning 10 be discussed
by those who keep an eye on the po-
litical chess-board. or course the
Office of County Judge will be among
the places most sought after. Judge
Winfree will be a candidate for re-
election, and will probably be given
clear track OH the Democratic side.
There will be several aspirants in
the Republican ranks. 1t is already
understood that Esq. A. ii. Ander-
son, Esq. ii. d. Clark, County Attor-
ney L. G.. Sebree and perhaps 9TH
ers would like to have the pleasure
of tackling Judge Winfree next year.
Maj. Jno. w. Breathitt will be a
candidate for reelection to the Office
of County Clerk and it is said that
he will have colored opponent in
his own party. Maj. Breathitl
is regarded as the strongest Republic
can in the party, but the Democrats
believe that they have in the person
of Aquilla d. Long a steed with such
running qualities that he can force
him to lower his record as a runner
or come under the string several
lengths behind. Mr.. Long has been
twice elected jailer when lie had to
overcome Republican majority OF
several hundred and if he SHES his
castor into the ring we may expect
to see one of the liveliest contests
ever in the county.
1t is understood that Capt. b. I.
Underwood will undertake to sue
coed himself as Circuit Court clerk
and as yet we have heard no one
else spoken of in connection with
the Office.
Judge j. G. Brasher would like to
be the Republican nominee for Coun-
lty Attorney and will probably have
no difficulty in getting the nomna-
ton, as he is the only aspirant heard
of so far.
The jaileTs race is not yet excit-
ing any comment but there will OF
course be scramble for the place
and the Republican nominee will
probably be a colored man. In that
event the next jailer will be Demo.

languages. Miss Clements has held
distinguished places as presiding
teacher.
Mr.. John o. Rust will conduct the
studies of the young ladies in English
Literature and c.All the other de-
partments have been or will be amply

to the education of young ladies will
find no superior one in Kentucky to
this, as the long and successful expe-
rience Of Prof. Rust will testify.
Mrs. Rust's reputation as a teacher Of
mathematics is well known. The
charge will never obtain against this
Institution that the girls do not study

CHARLIE LIPsT1NE IN TRoU-
BILE.
Arrested For Obtaining Money
Under False Pretenses.

A young Hebrew, Charles Lipstine,
was arrested by Officer Harris at the
Grand Central Threaten last night
and lodged III Jail at midnight,
charged with obtaining money under
false pretenses. =
The amount of money falsely OBJ
tanned, charged against him, is about
500, of which sum $50 was got from
Mendel, the clothier, and the remain
der of the Southern Mutual Life In
surance Company. The money was
obtained by bogus checks OH his
father.
Young Lipstine has been in the
city since week ago last Friday, and
tor the past week has been stopping
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. He had
no money when arrested.-Louisville
Commercial, Tuesday.
The Evening Post also contained
the following account:
"Charles Lipstine is the SON ofM.
Lipstine, wealthy merchant Of Hop
kinsville. The young man is a wild
blade. lie came to the city several
days ago, and running short of funds
forged draft Oh his father and had
1t cashed by firm on Market street.
For this transaction he was arrested
last night.
This afternoon Mr.. A. G. Dick, who
is engaged in business at Ninth and
Green, swOre out a warrant against
Lipstine charging him with forgery.
On yesterday Lipstine went TO Mr..
Dick, who is well acquainted with
the family, and wanted to draw $50
in his fathers name. lie claimed to
be authorized by his father to make
the draft. Mr.. Dick, however, took
the precaution TO telegraph the elder
Mr.. Lipstine. The Young man was
aware of this and proceeded to clay
for the answer. lie hung about the
Western Union office until it came
and then signed for it. The message
read: "Don't let him have one cent.
| will not pay"
Lipstine by erasures and altera-
tions, made 1t read: ayes, let him
have fifty dollars; will not pay more
This was handed Mr.. Dick, but il
being after banking hours The latter
told the young man that lie could
not have the money before this morn.
Ing. He, however, made him an
advance of IL %. A few hours later
Mrs. Dick was shown the telegram
by her husband, and she discovered
the fraud.
The first case against Lipstine was
called Tuesday morning in the City
Court and continued till tomorrow"
Mr.. Lipstinc is one of our good
and worthy citizens and we synpa-
thize with him. lie has always been
a kind and indulgent father and il
is not his fault that the young man
has got into such a scrape.
