suit in his reelection.

Completing the Midland
Some More.

Our brethren of the press in Paris
build the extension of the Kentucky
Midland or sell the road every day or
two, but unfortunately their deals Go
not stick. Here is the latest from
the Bourbon News of Tuesday:
Monday, ex-Lieut.- Gov. Cantrill
closed contract with E. P. Reynolds,
Of Chicago and New York. the largest
and most responsible railroad-build-
ing firm in the country, to complete
the Kentucky Midland Railroad from
this city to Salt Lick a distance of
forty-six miles The road is to be
completed by January LIST, 1892.
If Gov. Cantrill has made any such
contract he has failed to notify the
officers Of the road in this city, and
he certainly would inform them be-
fore anyone else. Try again, boys,
You will make it after while.

Frankfort Male Academy.

The third annual session begins
Monday, Sept. 7, at 9 o'clock. The
object of this school is to prepare
boys for college. Boys desiring in
struction in special branches will be
admitted, and may pursue such stud
les from the regular course as their
parents or guardians may select. BY
an examination of the catalogue it
will be seen that the work Of prepar-
ing for college occupies six years,
and no pupil will be permitted to
leave this school as fitted for college
until he shall have made successfully
all examinations upon the course
of study as presented in the cata-
logue, and in no case will pupil
who withdraws from my school and
attempts to enter college before he
shall have successfully completed
the course of study requisite for adj
mission, be granted a certificate of
proficiency from me.
On the other hand, I guarantee
that any pupil who has complied with
the necessary conditions, is COM
petent to enter any Of the best Amer
lean colleges.
This Academy is in no wise Sec
tartan nor religious institution. The
claim for public patronage is based
on conditions entirely independent
of church creeds and religious preju-
dices.
The course of study embraces two
general departments. offering the re-
quired amount for college prepare
ton and an advanced English course,
designed for boys who will enter bust
ness on leaving school.
take this means Of briefly express
ing my thanks to the citizens of
Frankfort and vicinity for the liberal
encouragement they have given me
in the past in my efforts to establish
this school in this city, and to solicit
their patronage for the future on the
claim of the merit only of the school.
Respectfully,

Base Ball.

The Olympics, of Louisville, came
up Saturday and played an interest
ing game that afternoon with the
Crutcher & Starks Club at Lake Park.
Lawrence Young, the pitcher for the
Princeton College nine, who held the
New York League Club down to two
hits, was in the box for the Olympics,
and the first and second basemen were
also members of the Princeton College
nine, the balance of the club being
composed Of the best amateurs in
Louisville. Under the circumstances,
our boys played very good game
against them. Davis was expected
to catch for the home team, but failed
to come and young man by the
name Of Douglas, from Lexington,
started in to catch Merchant, but
was struck by the ball on the right
thumb, in the third inning, the first
joint being knocked out Of place and
one of the bones protruding through
the flesh, and of course had to leave
the game, his place being taken by
Alex. Coins, who caught very well the
balance ofthe time, although out of
practice. Merchant pitched splen-
didly, and had he been as we'll sup
ported as Young our boys would
have made good showing.
The following score tells the story
of our defeat:

Regular Session.
The regular meeting OF the Trades
Assembly took place yesterday after
noon, President Riley in the chair. The
attendance was not quite so large as at
previous meetings, although the discus
sion was quite general.
After the reading Of the minutes OF
previous meetings, which were quite
vOluminOus, came the admission OF new
delegates. Four were admitted from
the United Brotherhood of Carpenters
and JOiners. George Lang was ad-
mitted as a delegate from Garfield AS
semby, to take the place OF J. +. Darby.
The next matter under consideration
was the Milwaukee beer problem. A
telegram was read from the Psbst
Brewing Company, sent TO l.. V. Wheat,
saying that the employees had been or
ganlzed A letter was also read from
the American Federation, which stated
that the boycott had not been lifted for
reason that the conditions required
have not been fulfilled. The communi-
cation was signed by Samuel Gompers.
The letter further went on to say that
in all probability the matter may come
up at the Birmingham convention OF
the Federation, and the Assembly was
advised to continue pushing the boycott
until il heard in an official way from
headquarters. The Assembly moved
that the letter be received and nled,
aud the boycott pushed as before.
Then followed long discussion OF the
WsrehouSeman'S difficulty during which
it was stated that the arbitration COM
mittee held a meeting with the Whole
sale Grocers last Monday but nothing
definite was arrived at. 1t is claimed
by the Assembly that the wholesale
GrocerS have not been living up TO the
verbal agreement made to arbitration
committee when the strike was declared
off. 1t was understood then by the As
sembly that the grocerS were TO take
back all the former employees as
soon as opportunities offered. 1t Is
claimed there have been several oppor-
tupities, but the warehousemen claim
that these opportunities have not been
improved, so far as getting the men
hack. After a long discussion as TO
what was best to be done, the question
was referred to the Warehousemen's
Union for consideration.
A communication was received from
Newburg, West Virginia, stating that
the different labor organizations OF this
State have elected committees to make
arrangements for Labor Congress In
the near future. In accordance with
reouest the Assembly then elected a
committee as follows: Messrs. Riley,

and few miles below New Orleans it
flOwSinto the sea. But the SEA never
becomes full. The great rivers have no
influence whatever on the ocean; it
seems to be an entire loss. In this way
we draw our false notions and views OF
life Humanity is like the river. 1t has
its origin in the rugged mountains OF
tolls, struggles, ana privations. 1t
passes on down between the hills Of diff
iculty, daShing against the rocks OF
strife and contention, madly whirls
throughs the rapids Of business and
pleasure, plunges over the tails
of disaster, passes through
tue lOw-lands of monotonons
old age, and then empties into the sea
of eternal forgetfulness. Nothing is
permanent. Life flows on to the sea OF
death, yet the sea is not full. In our
sad moments, we get just such false
view Of life; and we are ready TO cry out,
like Solomon, sail is vanity" Let us
cast of our gloom, and look at the true
view Of life, drawn from this text.
The reason the rivers do not I'LL the
sea, is found In the last part Of this
verse ''unto the place from whence the
rivers came, thither they return aRpln."
We do not wonder that the sea over
becomes full, when as much is takenout
by evaporation as flows In the rivers.
Rivers have a mission in the world, and
they fulfill their true end, to beautify
and enrich the earth through which they
flow; they are not failures because they
do not I'll the sea.
Every human life has its mission.
Along the shore OF your LIES stream,
much good can be accomplished. You
can give the bread Of life TO the hungry
soul; you can satisfy those who are
furnishing for the waters OF life; you
can throw luster Of joy and gladness
on all your surroundings. Every lie
should have it's share in identifying The
earth through which 1t passes. II the
stream Of your life is not a blessing to
the world ii is because the waters are
not pure and sweet, or because you are
selfish.
The second great mission Of the river
is to loose itself In the ocean, in order
TO supply the showers Of blessing. Life
is brief; vet no life is ever lost. No
deeds of kindness or sacrifice are ever
lost; they may run into the sea OF OBJ
livion, yet the effect is not lost. The
rivers of life flow into the sea of eter-
nifty, but they are not lost. We do not
merely live for to-day, but for eternity.
The great question for each one TO
settle tonight Steward what sea is
the river of my life flowing. What d.
rection does your life run? Toward
God, or away from him? You are on
the watershed tonight. wish l could
have said some word that would help
your life to flow toward God and eter-
nal life, and not to flow darkly through
years of usefulness, only to'enter the
eternal death.
