was adopted and ordered printed in
the city papers;
WHEREAS, Our brother, James

WHEREAS, We confidently believe

voledly pious craftsman, ho has been

Base Ball Last Thursday.

Last Thursday The Pembroke 'Keen
Kuttcrs" came down to play another
match game of ball with the city nine.
The city nine was in fine condition
and confident of victory from the be-
ginning of the game. The "Kccn
Kuttcrs" did not have two of their
best men and were otherwise out OF
condition TO play up TO their average.
The game was called at 2 o'clock and
both mines were in their respective
positions in a few moments. The
game was very exciting one and
there wasmuch cheering from the IA
voriles of both clubs. Lindsay, the
pitcher for the home team, is getting
to be first-class pitcher, and the Wis
iting club found his curves little
hard TO hit. McCrory, did some fine
catching throughout the game, as he
only let one ball get by. The Penn
broke battery did very well also. AT
the end of the seventh inning the game
closed to give the visiting boys time
to catch the five o'clock train. Below
will be found the positions of the
players and the score:

EIGHT CHILDREN DEAD.

MACEDONIA, KY, Aug. 6, $50.
Dysentery has become an epidemic
in this part of this county. The dark
angel of death turks around almost
every household. Mr.. L. c. Hopper's
little boy {; little Crick, step-son of Mr..
G. M. Parker; Mr.. Il, N. Ellis little
boy; Mr.. Isiah Cummings child little
Cordie Newsom, infant son of Mr.. G..
w. Newsom Mr.. L. Ii. Beshear's lit
tie girl +; little Andrew G. Pleasant,
son of j. +. Pleasant and Mr.. A. e.
Owens little babe, eight little
cherubs have crossed over the dark
valley of death since our last report.
Mr.. Dunning's wife had been visiting
in Caldwell County and they were on
their way home when their little
child died on the road.
We have had some fine rains for
the last few days, which greatly i'm
proved the appearance OF the grow
ing crops.
Some of the boys were little bois-
ferrous at the election, but nobody
hurt. Mcssrs. J. II. Fuller and j. ID.
Collins were elected Justices of the
Peace and Mr.. j, Il. Kelly for Consta-
BILE. Esquire Durham withdrew
from the race for J. T., and left the
contest between Fuller ahd Collins,
and NJ. II. Copps and D. Il. Farmer.
All who had the interest Of the county
at heart wanted Farmer beaten, but
some of Collins friends were kept
at home by sickness and death and
he only defeated farmer by one ma
jority. RoUGH AND READY.

Destructive Hail.Storm.

A storm of ram and hail passed
over this city Friday, which did con-
siderable damage in some localities.
To the south for several miles the
tobacco crop was almost ruined, Mr..
q. w. Lawson had nine acres almost
entirely destroyed. The leaves looked
as If they had been run through a
thresher. Others in the same vicini-
ty Jared equally as badly. In many
fields the stalks will have TO be cut
down and sucker turned out. We
have been unable to get an estimate
of the loss. Mr.. II. IL. Wilson's barn
was blown down and other damage
was done by the wind in the track OF
the storm.

but one conclusion to be drawn from
this and unless the negro has less in
telligence than we give him credit
for he will forthwith arrive at it. II
he does not he can not take hint
without being knocked down and
sat upon. The Republicans have
served notice for the third time upon
the colored man that while he is a
success as a voter, he cannot expect
to fill office. Alex Thompson re-
ceived this hint in 1878, Wyatt Watt
was knocked down in 1882 and now
both Watt and Glass have been sat
upon with as much emphasis as if a
thousand of brick had fallen upon
them. viii they take the hint now
We shall see. Then the next question
is, what will they do about it?

lest will come up before the two
magistrates nearest to the court
house, not interested in the result,
subject to appeal to the circuit court.
where the contest will be tried as an
equity case. The vote for Bennett,
the head of the Democratic ticket,
shows that there are over 2700 simon
pure Democrats in the county. These
figures show that about 700 more
Democrats voted than cast their bal
lots at the last general election. The
other votes that swclled the totals of
the three winners on the Democratic
ticket came from the ranks of the
Republicans and our free-lance
friends, the mugwumps. 1t will be
seen that the Republican majorities
range from 80 to 1856, thelatter be-
ing the size Of John Boyd's plurality
for sheriff. Judge Champlin's de-
feat is surprise to his friends. 1t
was confidently expected that he
would lead his ticket, but lie failed to
receive the colored vote he counted
on.
A. d. Long, although he ran ahead
of the ticket, was defeated by GIG
majority. Mr.. Long suffered more at
the hands Of the Democratic scratch
er than any other man on the ticket,
but he received enough Republican
votes TO make up part OF his loss.
If his own party had stood squarely
up to their principles and the voters
in North Christian had voted as they
talked to Mr., Long, the result might
have been different. AS it is, one of
the men who worked hardest for sue
cess is among those who were dis
tanced in the race. 1t is useless to
comment further. The election is
over and it has resulted in Republic
can victory, excepting three Or four
offices. 1t is the last sweeping vic
tory the Republican party will ever
win in this county and they may
make the most of it they can.

Jail Delivery.

Jack Sullivan, the negro who was
put in Jail some time ago, charged
with robbing Mr.. Steele, escaped
Thursday by cutting through the
iron wall of his cell. 1t isnot known
what kind of au instrument he did
the work with. After getting Out
into the corridor it is supposed that
he got behind the door and slipped
out unobserved when the deputy
jailer went in to feed the prisoners
in the morning. lie was not missed
until noon, when his dinner was
taken TO him and it was found that
he had not eaten his breakfast. lie
is still at large and nothing has been
heard Of him since his escape.

Glass s. Defeat.

The Republican party can never
offer satisfactory explanation for
the defeat of Edward w. Glass, Its
colored candidate for jailer. Glass
is young man of good character,
intelligent and educated, and had
made faithful and attentive officer
during the two terms he served as
constable in the IIopkinsville district.
Last spring he aspired to the office of
Circuit Clerk, but the Republican
party leaders induced him to accept
the nomination of their committee
for jailer in order to get him out OF
the way of Mr.. Brown, who was sub
sequently nominated and elected.
Glass went into the fight in earnest.
He did not threaten and bulldoze.
He simply made an earnest appeal
and plausible argument, asking the
white Republicans 10 show the sim
certify OF their protestations of friend
ship for his race by electing him,
Added to the votes of his own color
he needed only about 500 white votes
and from every stump in the county
he pleaded with his protested politi.
cal friends to come TO his rescue and
not scratch their ticket. Did they
do it2 The result shows that Glass
was defeated by over hundred votes
running several hundred votes be-
hind his ticket. Nor is this all.
Wyatt Watt, the colored candidate
for coroner, who was beaten for
jailer in 1882, is again defeated by the
party lie has supported so faithfully
and consistently for years. There is

the official results of the late election.
The count was long and tedious but
it has at last been completed. Coun-
tY Judge w. p. Winfree, County
Clerk j. W. Breathitt and Sheriff
John Boyd, all of whom were candi-
dates, met Thursday and proceeded
to count the votes. After the results
had been declared, the question was
raised that the board was not legal
one and the two nearest magistrates,
Esquires p. f. Rodgers and N. G..
Brasher, were called in to count the
returns also, so as to be on the safe
side. Both boards went over the poll
books carefully and We give the Off
cial figures to-day. Several erro-

correct.
The county judges race, il will be
seen, is decided by only 80 votes in
a total poll of 6lG0 in the county.
This is, by several hundred, the lar
