ALL OF 'EM WANT PIE,
But Collector Feland Cannot Satisfy
Them.

The Owensboro Inquirer say 8 that
Mr.. Feland has used his best judg-
ment in making re-, concentrations to
the Department for the appointment
of mon in his district, but there has
nevertheless been considerable kick
ing in different counties because there
were more applicants for place than
i, allowed under the rules. This
was nothing but what Mr.. Feland
expected and tho disgruntled will
have to wait until their time comes.
Tue Inquirer thinks that peace will
reign in the Republican camp of this
district after while, but the Hen
derson Cleaner takes a different view
Of the matter. The Cleaner says:
"There is war in the Republican
amp; no skirmish, no firing from
ambush, but a straight, square out,
face. to face battle coming on. The
question arises and must be answered,
is Mr. Felsnd the Republican party 2
Is the man who united with the
Democrats and mugwumps III seek
ing the election of Horace Greedy to
the presidency of the United States
to turn u cold shoulder TO Republic
C ms who have held the faith handed
down by Lincoln and Grant, and dis
tribute patronage to those who have
been idlers and lukewarm partisans 2
"Mr. leland has overridden the
recommendation of the Republican
clubs of this county in his appoint
ment of one storekeeper, and certain
ly he has given appointments to
fledgelings while the old battle-scared
veterans are left to review their work
and then suck their thumbs. Go II,
Feland, 20 it. You are doing more
to disrupt and rend asunder what
remains of party once well organ
lied and fully equipped than all of
the Republicans who have held an
off ,e since the war"

BOILER EXPLOSION AT DAWSON
Two Lives Lost and Three Men Seri-
ouslY Injured.

Two Lives Lost and Three Men Seri-
ously Injured.
Last Monday afternoon while the
stave machine of Seaman & Co. was
in full operation at Dawson the boil
er exploded aud piece of it struck
James Jackson, the fireman, OH the
head, killing him Instantly. Anoth-
er man by the name of James ID.
Meaders was scalded so badly that
he died the next day. Three other
employees who were near by when
the explosion occurred were very
seriously ifnot fatally injured. The
machine was located just above the
railroad bridge and the explosion
was heard for miles around. II
caused considerable excitement in
Dawson, and soon hundreds of per-
sons were rapidly making their way
to the scene of the accident. The
fireman lay dead with his brains
knocked out by the fatal missile,
while Meaders was found in a per-
fectly helpless condition. Medical
aid was soon secured for him and the
three other unfortunates, and the re-
mains of the fireman were promptly
prepared for burial.

The JOLlY-FELAND MATTER.

The following, from the Owens
boro Messenger, gives about all the
light to be obtained as to who will
be recommended by Attorney jolly
for the Assistant Attorneyship:
The local stir relative to the ap-
pointment of an assistant U. s. Dis
trict Attorney has about subsidized,
though a few people are doing a
great deal Of talking as though try
ing to make a fuss OF 1t whether the
the principal parties interested will
or no.
Nothing new has come to the sur
face. Mr.. jolly is still in Louisville,
and If he has made a move 1t is moi
announced.
The Louisville Post yesterday took
look at the situation and felt to say
Hon. George w. jolly, the new
United States District Attorney fol
Kentucky, appeared shortly before 3
o'clock this afternoon in the United
States Circuit Clerks office, and
took the oath of Office, as District
Attorney for the State of Kentucky
Samuel B. Grail, United States Clerk
swearing him in. Judge Wickliffe
the present Democratic District At
torney, also appeared in his usual
good humor and in his own proper
person, as the lawyers say.
Soon after Mr.. Jolly was swo-n in
the District Attorney and the new
one retired for private consultation.
1t then leaked out that Judge Wick
life had declined to give up the Of
flee until his term expired in Janua-
ry next, he having been commits.
stoned for four years. A representa-
tive of the Post saw both Mr.. jolly
and Judge Wickliffe about the mat
ter of when the new one would 20 in
and the old one would go out. Mr..
jolly said he presumed he would go
into Office at once.
"Who will my deputy be? Well
said Mr.. jolly, II have made up my
mind as TO that, but l can't tell you
this afternoon who he will be-"
Mr.. George DuRelle was present in
the hallway. He seems to be well
Pleased, and 1t is almost certain that
he will get the place. Mr.. Du Relic
declined to be interviewed on the
subject, but he led the reporter to be-
lieve that his friend, Mr.. jolly, would
appoint him If anybody was ap-
pointed.
Judge Wickliffe said he had not
made up his mind yet when he would
60 out of office. He and Mr.. jolly
were holding a consultation and
would come to some understanding
tonight.
Judge Wickliffe's friends say he
will make contest certain, but in
any event it is reasonably certain
that George Du Relic is to be the
next Assistant District Attorney"
The Messenger is very sure that
he appointment Of Mr.. Du Relic
will be made, and it will probably be
to-day. 1t also believes
hat there will be no trouble over the
natter aud that Mr.. Jonn Felaud, Jr.,
will heartily release Mr.. jolly from

THE GREAT SEA-SHORE ExCuR-
SION VIA THE CHESAPEAKE
& OHIO RAILWAY.
Two Hundred and Seventy-FiNe Ken
tuckians at Old Point Comfort.

Two Hundred and Seventy-FNe Ken
tuckians at Old Point Comfort.
OLD PoINr COMFORT, Va, Aug
lit was happy thought Of the
founder of the Hygeia Hotel to build
this stupeudous csravsnsory OF en-
joyment at the confluence of waters
at Hampton Roads, where Chesapeake
and Delaware Bays, Elizabeth and
James Rivers and innumerab!e creeks
mingle their placid waves to form a
haven for the ships Of all nations,
with ample space for all the mer-
caant-men and war-ships Of the
world. The surrounding inlets aud
creeks yield the finest oysters in
abundance, aud cauvass-backs and
water fowls OF every kind, and the
waters swarm with mackerel, sea.
trout, hog-fsh, founders, spots and
crabs. Land and sea are rich in the
luxuries of the table, the air ia whole
some and the surf-bathing seldom
equalled anywhere.
The sea-shore excursion to Old
Point Comfort, which left Hopkins
vile August 7th, over the q " o.
railway, under the conduct Of Mr.. w.
A WIlgus, aud emOraclug 30 ux-
cursionists from Hopkinsville and
some eight or nine other cities aud
towns OF Kentucky and Tennessee
has proved brilliant success aud
deserves honorable mention as the
greatest excursion of the present
summer. The scheme was good
one. Its objective point-rich in his
toric incident and snecdote from the
mythical days of Captain John Smith
aud Pocahontas, and the legend of
the Revolution, TO the immortal sea-
fight of the Monitor and the Mcrri-
mac, the most important by far In its
results and lesson of all modern naval
battles-outshone all its rivals.
When the excursionists reached
the Hygeia Hotel the evening OF the
second day, involuntary EXPLANATIONS
of delight and wonder broke out on
all sides. That immense Castle of
Pleasure, which rises sloft like Alad-
din's Palace by the yellow beach, gilt
tered with countless lights aud echoed
with the hum of conversation and
the exuberant mirth of its thousand
guests.
Hopkinsville has here a delegation
of young girls who have no reason to
decline entering contest with the
most fashionable and elegant devotees
of pleasure at Old Point. Their in
telligent faces, refined and graceful
bearing and sparkling conversation,
bespeak pure and exalted woman
hood, without superior in the most
favored places upon earth.
Excursions to Vincent, Norfolk,
Hampden, Virginia Beach, Ocean
View, Washington and Richmond at
greatly reduced rates vary the daily
programme. Tomorrow Mr.. Wilgus
will take party to New Xork, con-
duct them to leading places Of inter
est and place them at excellent hotels
at reduced rates. Sightseeing and
travel is thus reduced to wonderfully
low terms.
The man who, with the means at
his command, denies himself and his
family q visit to this queen of all
summer sea-shore resorts on the At
lantic coast, can be excused on &C.
count of his Ignorance only. AT no
other point can SO great and rich
variety be had for SO little money.
We advise all to seize the first Old
Point excursion which is offered.

nothing suspicious about the appear

der the water opaque when attacked.
Indian yellow comes from the camel.
Ivory chips produce the ivory black and bone

and gums.
Blue black comes from the charcoal Of the
vine stalk. Lamp black is SCOT from certain

facture.
Mastic is made from the gum of the mastic
tree, which grows in the Grecian Archipelago,
Bistre is the SCOT Of wood ashes.
Very little real ultrsmarine is found in the
