RuhsEY, KY, May 0, 's9.-we are
now suffering from drouth in this
section of the country and it Is get
ting to be serious. From the coua-
try all around us comes the com :
plant of cut worms, chinch bugs, to-
bacco bugs aud dry weather. Some
Of the farmers are getting quite dis
Outraged. The ground is dry, hard
and dusty and the river is very low,
and If we do not get rain soon we
will suffer.
Fishing is flourishing Just now and
some very nice ones have been
caught
The government Is having much
work done here and 1t has improved

Just now they are building a new

There is some fine wool coming In.
Indeed there is very noticeable
Improvement in the quality of the
wool compared to what it was a few
years ago.
Rumsey is improving more this
Spring than for years past. New
buildings are going up and many
lots have new fences around them.
There has been plenty of work here
this Spring and things are sctiye.
notwithstanding all this the mer-
chants are complaining of dull times
and slow trade, 1 do not see why, as
there has been much money paid to
laborers lately and the merchants

The mile and half was covered In

The race was witnessed by 5000 or
10000 people.

A Colored Artist.

Our readers will perhaps remem-
Der that In times past that we have
referred to the artistic talent evinced
by colored boy by the name OF
Claiborne Merriweather who lives at
Darlington. Some two or three years
ago he began to develop talent to
sketch with q common lead pencil.
His frst efforts were exceedingly
creditable. lie secured some paints
and has produced some pictures that
attract attention on account of their
correctness, He has an eye either
for landscape or portrait work. Last
week he came into the Hustler Office
bringing with him his last effort. 1t
was drawing ola copy ofThe Hust-
Ter of April llth, 1889, with several
additional touches. The picture 10
one that attracts universal attention
and favorable comment. 1t is one
that can not be easily described but
must be seen to BIO appreciated. The
work was done with lead pencil
and certainly possesses great merit.
1t has been framed and will be kept as
a souvenir. This colored boy ia a
born artist and it is great pity that
he is not able to go to some school of
art where he could perfect himself in
the business. We believe that IL he
had the proper training that he would
in time become an eminent painter
and be an honor both TO his race and
to our county. He has a great desire
to study and II is to be hoped that
some way may be opened 10 him by
which he will be able to pursue his
studies. Will not some philanthropy
ist assist in the development of his
talent 3-Madisonville Hustler.

Bcsant's Rules for Writers.

Fir. Bcsant formulates eleven rules which must be constantly kept in mind by those who would worthily follow the art of fiction. These eleven rules-the endecalogue, as one might call them, of the art of fiction-are as follows:
 1. Practice writing something original every day.
 2. Cultivate the habit of observation. 3. Work regularly at certain hours. 4. Read no rubbish.
 5. Aim at the formation of style.
 G. Endeavor to be dramatic.
 '. A great element of dramatic skill is selection.
 8. Avoid the sin of writing about q character.
 Q. Never attempt to describe any kind of life except that with which you are familiar.
 10. Learn as much as you can about men and women.
 H. For the sake of forming a good natural style and acquiring command of language write poetry.-Pall Mall Ga zette,

AN INTERESTING EXPERIMENT.

In the cut hero represented from La Ma ture is illustrated on experiment which shows tho reverse of this phenomenon, and will well repay the slight amount of trouble necessary U prepare the apparatus. A good sized cork is taken, and to the lower end is attached c small vessel, which may be conveniently made out of . thimble. At the upper end is placed ring of very fine, bright and clean iron or copper wire, supported by two other wires fastened into tho cork. The ring should be about four inches in diane ter. Tho apparatus is then placed in 0 vessel Of water, and sand or fine shot placed in tho thimble until it is bal a1ced so that it floats with the ring from one-quarter to one-half of an inch above the surface. If the ring is then pressed down below the surface the tension of the film will be great enough to prevent the ring break ing through it; and it will remain just un- derneath the surface, which is pressed up a little and rendered slightly convex. How, if drop of ether be placed inside the ring tho surface tension Is diminished, and the ring rises up through tho water as if pro pelled by all unseen force Some care is necessary to have this experiment. succeed, tae principal precaution being to have tho sire ring perfectly clean and bright. It is better to slightly grease it by drawing 1t through the fingers.

The objects are gathered by means of wide mouthed bottle clamped in tongs attached to a long handle, cane, or even a fishing rod. By means of this device mud can be removed from the bottom, the stems and leaves of aquatic plants can be scraped so as to remove Rnimalcules, and objects can be readily dipped from pools and shallow places. To concentrate the material, Mir. Helm employs a wide mouthed bottle or jar provided with 0 perforated cork, in which is inserted a fun Del for receiving the material, and another funnel is inverted and placed within the jar or bottle, with it's nozzle extending upward through the stopper. Over the lower end of this funnel is stretched q piece of thin muslin, and to the upper end is applied a short piece of rubber pipe, which is retained in curved position by n thread tied around the neck of the bottle. The material gathered is poured into the funnel, the water escapes through the strainer, and the objects are retained in the bottle. Mir Helm said that the hooked knife (which we have shown in the engrav- ing1 was of great utility in cutting and fishing out parts of aquatic plants and submerged branches anl roots, which are often teeming with microscopic life.
