Jerry Cloyd, an industrious colored
man OF this place, had an ankle badly
crushed in a hay press at Mr.. j. Walker
Owens last week. Some imaginative ac'
quaintance of Jerry's started rumor
that he thrust his foot into the press TO ar.

the de struction of the machinery.
Genial Lou Holmes, one of the clev-
crest pilgrims on the road, shared will,
his host of friends the Heine concert
Friday night. We should have inter
viewed Lou on the iniquity of the Me
Kinley bill as applied to tinware, etc,
in his line, had it been opportune. Miss
Fannie Lee Harper has gone on visit
to Miss Naomi Forsythe and other school
girl friends at Harrodsburg.
Miss Mary V. Carpenter, our home
artist, is at home, after prolonged So
journ at Pittsburg, where she has taught
large class in art. Her stay was par
ticularly pleasant and, We hope, pecuni'
arily profitable. Miss Mary is an enthu-
siastic devotee to art and the few of her
early specimens wehave seen manifest a
pronounced genius, which art critics de-
clare of a superior order. We have long
promised ourseli the enjoyment ola visit
to her studio.

igures obtainable and fastened back for
new deal. which promises return of
iome Of his big losses. Ii richly de-
erved prosperity. even approximately
with Jim's indefatigable
,et-up and-get, attended his enterprises,
le would soon head the list of Kentucky
capitalists.
Capt. Joe Huffman appears To have
onstrued literally the assurance that
Sinners stand on slippery places and
isregarded the warning against gravelly
nd sandy foundations. In gliding over
he icy sidewalk OF one of Liberty's thor
ughiares early last week he fell and
rsctured a knee cap, which misfortune
revents his attendance at circuit court
: clerk. We are glad to report that the
lptain has suffered but little from his
Misfortune and is hopeful of an early re- I
ppearance at his desk, good as new" s
