Fight at Terguson's Store.

There was speaking at Ferguson's
Store last Wednesday. Pretty soon
after the speaking was over j. A.
Calvin and Lawson Pepper became
involved in a dispute over shot
with target gun, and fought. In
an attempt 10 quell tine disturbance
j. d. Martin and ALT Dossett became
involved also, and w. B. Huddleston,
Allen Isom and j. Il. Jenkins then
Joined in the row, when general
knock-down was INDUCED in. Rocks,
fcnce.rails, clubs, pistols and knives
were used and things presented a war
like appearance for several minutes
Huddleston and Isom were each
struck on the head with rock and
seriously hurt, Isom probably fatally
.Huddleston's coat pocket was shot
off, also other portions of his clothing
perforated by bullets. There were
no officers present and no arrests
were made at the time. Warrants
have since been sworn out against al
the parties to the fuss.

For the Semi Weekly South Kentuckian.
The Louisville Pest Office.

A glance into this building gives
birth to many and varied thoughts.
There is one scene which is especial
ly productive of thoughts and that is
the great pile of letters awaiting dis
tribution. At night with the doors
ajar and the bright lights cxpelling
the darkness you can plainly see the
address of every letter that isn't hid
by another.
The first impression is that some
body will get letter if somebody
doesn't. The second, what are the
varied messages that these white
winged, red-winged aud blue-winged
messengers are carrying TO the sons
and daughters of the earth? And the
styles in which these messengers arc
robed are asvaried and multitudinous
as are the messages. Some appear
with plain or solid colors, some with
GAIL the glory of Solomon" aud 9th
ers like the "Lily of the Valley
"None like them"
The third, will they reach the points
to which they are destined? A great
number will as is indicated by theil
handsome address. Indeed 1t Is akin
to pleasure 10 look upon the clear GU
lines and curves oflheir commercial
features. Then there are many which
if they ever reach their journeys enc
will never be recognized.
There is man connected with Bry'
ant IL Stratton's Commercial College
in this city, who can draw as perfect
a curve Oh letter as Phidias, Tho
Greek Sculptor, could on a marble
statue, and it is needless TO add thai
his messengers not only arrive a
their destination but always NEE
I
with hearty reception.
The errands of numbers of the mes
sengers are manifest, among these thu
messengers OF death are numbered
and great is the contrast of thei
countenance as they await their or
ders.
Think of the effect also of thes,
dark-winged messengers visits int
the houses Of these who as yet per
haps have never gwen them a reccp
tionl
There is something terrificall!
grand in such visitations, CRANE
in the idea that however un
welcome and ruthless their visit
there is most always with the major
ity of people a submission which i
expressed in TO us) the terrible an,
grand words "Thy will be DONE" l
teaches us also that "a good name j
rather to be chosen than great rich
es." Very Resp't.

Moonlight Picnic.

ED. KENTUCKIAN.
Jennings Cave, about two miles
west of Hopkinsville, was the scene,
Wednesday night, of countless pleas
antries for moonlight picnic. Young
ladies and gentlemen composed the
company assembled, and the atten-
dance was just large enough to make
everything real pleasant. The trees
and dancing stand were gaily deco
rated with flags, bunting and Japa-
nese lanterns which presented a
beautiful and inspiring appearance.
Ice cream, cakes, fruits, water mel.
ons, &C., were served on the grounds
An excellent string band interspersed
delightful music for the occasion
After a moderate indulgence strip
ping the light fantastic toe" in thu
may dance the company dispersed
gratified with the pleasure of thu
evening. The management of the or
derby affair was under the supervision
of Messrs, Blythe and Fleming, two
clever young gentlemen.

crop was never better. We have
plenty of apples, but no peaches.
