less for any of Won Der Ahe's competitors

ACQUITTED.
Walter Duncan and Mrs. Fleming
Acquitted Of the Crime Of Kill.
ing Charles Fleming.

The circuit court room was crowd
ed Friday and Saturday TO hear the
case of the Commonw cath vs. Wal.
ter Duncan and Mrs. Eliza j. Flem-
ing charged with the killing of Chas.
Fleming, at IIerndon Station, Sunday
August 18th. A cloud of witnesses
were examined on both sides but the
facts ELECTED were about as published
in the KENTUoKIAN last Tuesday.
The speeches in the case were all
sharp and vigorous. Charlie Bush
led off for the defense followed by
County Attorney Payne. James
Brcathitt then spoke in behalf of the
accused and AL Clark closed for the
Commonwealth. Allof the speeches
were meritorious, Mr.. Payne's being
pronounced by many as the greatest
effort of his life.
After hearing the facts and the
argument the court held that Duncan
was acting in his own necessary self
defense and that there was no evil
dence of a conspiracy between him
and Mrs. Fleming, whereupon, after
assessing fine of $25. against Dun
can for carrying a concealed deadly
weapon, the two were given their
freedom.

Gas Well Antics.

Friday evening Sam McCarley and
George Green were pumping water
out of the gas well in order that they
might get at the "blue lick" stream
in all its purity, when suddenly O
mighty rumbling was heard like
subterranean thunder and in a min
ute more the gas came squirting out,
Tho gentlemen touched a match to the
mouth of the casing and saw it burn
with blaze six feet high and A inch
es in diameter. They then sent OIL
TO town for Judge Petree and Mike
Kelly. When these gentlemen ar
rived they all four sat down in a row
and watched proceedings silently for
two hours. Night came ON and for
fear the elligy at the derrick's top
might be scorchcd, they put out the
flame and came home. II is certain
ly strange about this last gas squirt
and something may yet come of the

The Reasons Why.

Why is the National Garment Cut
ter so universally adopted
l. Because it teaches the house
hold without complicated and OBJ.
scure lesfOn) an art that enables them
to cut all classes of garments for men
women and children, including drap
cries an trimmings, and showing theil
general makeup in the very --latest
styles.
2. Because it enables the ladies tc
wear the neatest garments, made by
their own hands, as well as making
them self-reliant through life.
3. Because it is absolutely correct
giving perfect fit in all cases
thus saving time and waste of goods
which generally attends the cutting
of garments.
4 Because it is SO simply and its
instruction so plain, any one can use
it.
8 Because when once instructed
it becomes an indispensable article
in every household.
6. Because in no case where. the
cutter has been used has it failed to
give unbounded satifaction, grow
ing in favor instead of rendering it.
self unpopular.
7. Because it makes the sewing
machine source of profit, and is
worth many times it cost to any fam
lily.
s. Because, in short, it is the ne
plus ultra of all systems of cutting
and never fails to please wherever
introduced.
8 Because agents, both ladies and
gentlemen, can make money fast and
easy selling it.
10. Because we have the whole
civilized world to operate in, and can
give and will give agents the greatest
opportunity to make money fast and
easy ever offered.
