On motion of G. S. Miller, the follow.
ing resolution was adopted:
Resolved, that we hereby recommend
To the farmers of the 34th Senatorial
district the Hon. John S. Hargis as a
suitable man, and in every respect well
qualified to represent us in the next
General Assembly of Kentucky.
The >mmittee on Resolutions made
the following report:
Resolved by the farmers of Breathitt
county, l.. That we greatly fear that
true patriotism and wise craftsmanship
is not as fully represented in the Con
stitutional Convention as should have
been.
.. That we fear true patriotism in a
majority of the members of this conven-
ton is stiAed by the love of money.
3. That we think the lOng-contnued
session and stupid laziness of the present
convention is an outrage on the tax pay
ers of this Commonwealth, an outrage
on humanity and civilization, an outrage
on our Republican form of Government,
and an outrage upon the honor and pa
triotic examples of our forefathers.
4. That we think if this convention
cannot revise the Constitution without
bankrupting the State, it had better
come home and let us live under the
Constitution we have lived under the
past forty years.
s. That we return our thanks to the
patrons of Crockettsvile for their gene
rosity and kind treatment which they
showed while we were among them.
6. That copy of these resolutions be
furnished the HAZEL GREEN HERALD
and the Jackson Hustler for publication.

HAD TO GO AND HE WENT
HE RODE TO DENVER ON A WoMAN's
TICKET AND STRUCK LUCK.

How a willy Ticket ScaIper Helped o
Man Along on the Road and Inciden-
tally Saved Himself Fifteen Dollars.
The Stranger Did His Part NobIy.
There is today in Kansas City man OF
middle age who was formerly a ticket
broker in the halcyon days of that fra
teruity.
One day in looking over his mail he re-
ceived a query as to what a ticket from
Kansas City to Denver was worth, good
for fifteen days. He replied that such a
ticket was worth fifteen dollars, and in two
days he received it by mail. Casually
glancing at it with his customary methodi-
cal business habits, he Immediately sent
fifteen dollars to the seller. In rounding
up the days business, however, and taking
account of stock he discovered that his
Denver ticket was issued to a woman
Mrs. Alice Blackwood.
Now here was go. Women never called
at his Office to buy tickets, and it was al
most impossible to find a woman who
would consent TO use scalper's ticket
On the day on which the ticket expired
lean, lank, double jointed, unsophisti-
Gated young man entered his office and
said: Friend, have you got anything to
Denyeri"
'Yes, I've got ticket to Denver, stran-
ger, but you can't use it; it's for woman"
The visitor calmly replied; Friend, can
use anything. Pm bound to 90 to Denver.
and if | can't get a ticket start to walk
this very night" The ticket broker re-
quested the stranger 10 write the name,
Alice Blackwood, to correspond with the
name upon the ticket, and was Mortified TO
see the man turn his head TO one side and
stick out his tongue in an effort to write
the name, and, at the end Of two minutes,
hand him the paper with the name written
thereon. The characters, as they appeared
to the scalper, would have sufhced to OBJ
tain n bundle from any Chinese laundry,
and the hope of getting fifteen dollars for
the Denver ticket sank out of sight.
Stranger" said be, you won't do; you
can never use that ticket"
Friend, / can use anything; I must 90
to Denver" persisted the traveller.
Now, the scaIper had young man in his
Office who was an expert penman, and en-
couraged by the man candor and the hope
of saving that fifteen dollars. he put him
10 work. and in a few minutes the name on
the ticket was changed 70 read from ''MrA
Alice Blackwood" to Mr.. Alico Black
wood !"
The ticket had to be connteESigned and
stamped at the general Office at the depot
before IL could be used, and this had TO 30
done discreetly or detection would follow.
The expert penm&n wrote the name AlieO

snecuIations from Storms.

Physicists-that is to say, the physi-
cists who are not idling-are now busy
reaping the aftermath of the thunder
storms which for week or more have
been the chief meteorological feature of
cur climate. Lightning of every type
zigzsg, with sharply defined borders,
without any apparent width. in sheets
or in the shape of fireballs-has been
seen, and several lives have been lost by
these Olympian thunderbolts. But what
is most curious is that cattle have been
more frequently struck than human be-
ings, even when the chances of both
were equal This has been noticed more
than once by students of electricity.
Thus, a miller standing between a
horse and mule was only shaken a lit
tie, while the animals were killed. There
is also the well known instance of the
Abbey of Noirmoutiers. near Tours.
where hash Of lightning killed twenty
two horses without doing any other
harm to the $50 monks whom it visited
in the refectory than overturning the $50
bottles which contained their rations of
wine.-London Graphic.

A JeaIop, Horse.


In a fashionable boarding stable in
New York is horse called Tatters. Tat
tiers belongs to a lady who makes great
pet Of him, and never visits the stable
without taking him some apples, carrots,
or sugar, of which he Is extremely fond
In a neighboring stall is the horse of her
friend, an animal rejoicing in the name
of Phil. Tatters and Phil are on good
terms, bu. the former sometimes throws
his ears back and manifests jealousy
when his mistress, after giving him an
apple or a CARROT, gives one TO Phil One
day she went into the stable while Tat
ters was in the hands of the groom. He
began begging for an apple, and she de-
ferred the gift until the groom had I'm
ished his work and the horse had return
ed to his stall. Meantime she gave sn
apple to Phil
When Tatters had gone to his stall
she offered him an apple, but he refused
to take it, and turned his head from her
in disgust. For half an hour she coaxed
him, but TO no purpose. Then the groom
tried to induce him to take il, and then
another groom made the same effort, but
all in vain. Take the apple he would
not, nor would he recognize his mistress
in any way.
His ears drooped and he had the ap-
pearance Of a child in the Eulks. just az
much as horse can possibly have 1t.
His heart was broken, not 90 mnch be
cause an apple had been given 10 an
other horse, but because it had been
gwen before himself had received one.
But by the next day he seemed TO have
forgotten his grievance, and you may be
sure that his owner has been careful not
TO offend him since IN the same way
