Mr.. Il. L. Cox, of Belevlew mar
rowly escaped serious injury at the
hands of three colored roughs, one
night last week. lie had recently
sowed oats in one of his fields and
spying the three fellows walking
across the field told them that they
must not make paths across his oat
field but must retrace their steps.
They stoutly refused and the leader
attacked him when he knocked him
down. Another one attacked him
then and he felled him with his fist
Tho third party then made an attack
with a knife and succeeded in cutting
Mr.. Cox's clothing in dozen places,
the blade penetrating to the skin in
several places, before he secured
ngle tree which was lying by a
plow left in the field and struck his
would -be-murderer a stunning blow
across the forehead knocking him to
the ground where he was left for
dead, the other two having fled a few
before. Mr.. Cox has no
idea who composed the party and is
of the opinion that the blow given
with the singletree only stunned his
man as there was no trace of him
next morning.
The heavy overcoat Mr. c. wore
:aved his own life as the knife blade |
,ould not reach the flesh through |
iuch thick clothing.

The resolution drawn by the House,
extending the session of the present
Assembly to April 10th, has been
agreed to by the Senate, and as there
are but few local measures yet TO
come up, matters pertaining to the
interest of the State will have a
showing, which have of necessity,
heretofore been neglected, owing to
the large number of local bills from
almost every section of the State
thathave been popping up as II forced
by dynamite and their passage forced,
IN order to get them out OF the way
of more important business. While
it is relief to hear that day has
been agreed upon for adjournment,
II is not by any means improbable
that another extension will yet be
asked and in the matter of extensions
that which is asked for is granted.

whisky can be made aged in short
time will meet with high favor all
over the State, as cold" whisky in
Kentucky is as scarce as mole hills in
Minnesota. The Courier. journal
says, "that hitherto the only safe plan
by which it has grown old and oily
in the State has been to lock it up in
secure cellar and throw away the

cry case where the key is lost anoth'

Gle is generally liberated before ii is

pany. While there is much of the

The Railway Age has the following
complimentary notice of Mr.. NJ. H.
Smith, who so ably showed up the
Railway Commission and gave to
the public more facts TO think over
than would have otherwise come to

"Vice President NJ, II. Smith, of
the Louisville g. Nashville is not
only an able railway man, but clear
and forcible writer who is presenting
the Kentucky railway commission to
the public in any but an enviaple
light. lie is taking up its recent
annual report seriatim and proving
very nearly every paragraph in its
pages to bc untrue, unreasonable or
ridiculous. The trouble lies in the fact
that the commission is anxious to
make political capital for its men,
bers, and considers the railways as
supplying the opportunity"

The General Assemblies of Wis
consin and Minnesota have passed
acts allowing to each newspaper pub
lished in the States, one hundred dol
lars for publishing the general laws
passed at the last meeting of each
Legislature of their respective States
This is good law in more than one
way, and should exist in every State
in the Union. If every State would
adopt this plan tho people would be
enlightened upon the subject regard
ing the laws of their respective States
and be governed thereby with much
more case and less expense to the
State, and the newspapers would be
benefited to the amount of one hun
dred dollars each for publishing the
information, for which, if published
now, is done without compensation.

"The Salvation Army tackled Capt

During the sinking of large pits
and wells in Nevada stratas of rock
salt were cut through, in which were
found imbedded perfectly preserved
fish, which are doubtless thousands
of years old, as the salt field occupies
what was once the bottom of a large
lake, and no such fish are now to be
found in any of the modern Nevada
lakes. The specimens are not petri-
fed but flesh, and are all preserved
in perfect form, and after being
soaked in fresh water for two or
three days can be cooked and eaten,
but are not very palatable. After
being exposed to the air and sun for
day or two they become as hard as
wood.

Senator Triplett's bill to abolish
the Railroad Commission has been
reported favorably and by all means
should become law, thereby saving
the State the sum of about $4,000 per
annum. There has never been a de.
mand for Commission, and there il
still no demand for it outside of the
Commissioner themselves. Should
the people all over the State, who are
taxed to support the Commission
clamor for its continuance, on the
ground of benefits derived, it would
be a plain case of wrong to abolish it (;
but on the other hand you do not
find such a demand and it is
simply because the people can see no
benefit it has been TO them. The
mere assertion that the Commission
should be continued TO assess rail-
road property according to its just
value is simply an absurdity, for the
provision made by the Triplett bill
answers all purposes.

There were 22S failures in the
United States and Canada last week
against 2S2 for the corresponding
week in 1887. This number does not
include the individual failures-men
who are failures and who have been
all their lives, and who have just
been made known to the world-but
actual Commercial failures. These
figures would not indicate such bad
year for business as some of the Sol
onions have insisted would be ex'

but to the contrary shows business o

Herman J. Emerson, at whose rooms at No. $50
Rroadvay James Bedell lost one-haf Of his large
stealings was convicted yesterday before Recorder
Smyth of the crimes Of selling lottery policies and
keeping gambling house. The case was made re-
markable by Bedes own story, told on Tuesday ana
Wednesday, and yesterdays proceedings were less
interesting to the general public than those OF me
previous days Of the trial Bedell was not In the
court ROOM Mr.. Howe asked that the jury be di-
rected TO acquit the defendant The Recorder took
from the consideration Of the jury two OF the FIVE
counts Of the indictments, and sent the other counts
to the Jury. No evidence was offered FOR The de-
fence Mr. Howe heaped all the vituperation In
his abundant vocabulary on Bedel the chief witness
against his client. The closing argument for the
defence occupied about an hour
Assistant Distrct-Attorney Jerome did not attempt
to defend Bede but called attention to the corrob-
Grating circumstances and to the improbablity that
BedeI had told false story. Recorder Smyth ex-
planned TO the Jurors with great the facts which
must be shown to warrant verdict Of guilty. He
read the law as to- the confederation necessary In
such cases as the one on trial. and called attention
to the points on which corrOborating testimony might
be needed
The Jury after an absence Of less than an hour
from the courtroom, rendered verdict Of guilty
under the first third and fourth counts of the In
dictment Two of the counts for being common
gambler in selling lottery policies and one for the
mis,iemeanor of keeping a gambling house The
highest punishment for the crime OF which Emerson
was convicted is imprisonment ~ two years and a
fine of 81 900.
