. a Delightful & Entertainment.

The performance of the McGibeny
family at Burwell Hall Tuesday
evening was the most superb thing of
the kind Henderson people have yet
had the pleasure of enjoying. From
the oldest member down to the least
they are artists all, gifted with the
faculty of song or the art of evoking
sweetest music from some kind of an
instrument. Where all were so good
we will not particularlze further than
to say that Master Leo with his big
bass drum, comic songs and droll reel
tatiOns. was the fayOrite ofthe evening.
1t is alone worth the price ofadmission
to see and bear him. The programme
was a select one and every number well
rendered. Our citizens were delighted
with the McGibenys. They are as
courteous and agreeable socially as they
are clever and accomplished on the
stage, and altogether they are worthy
of the highest encomiums and the most
liberal. patronage wherever they may
go. They ought to be a very happy
family, cultivated and congenial in their
tastes as they are, and so comfortably
and well fixed in their s'home on

a Visit to the Jail.

BY invitation of DR.. Arch Cheatham,
County Health Officer, we visited the jail
in company with him a few days ago.
notwithstanding work was being done
on the inside in the way OF repainting the
cells, we found it comparatively clean
and apparently in good sanitary condi-
ton. The inner walls have been white
washed, and with the windows properly
adjusted the ventilation seems to be all
that could be required. One OF the pipes
which serves to convey the sewerage from
the building was stopped up, and this
seems to have caused trouble heretofore.
The pump was in good working order
and with the exception of the pipe men
toned, everything was in good fix. We
were told that the prisoners (there were
but three confined in the jail at the time
OF our visit are given plenty of fresh
water, the tank being filled up every
morning since court. Before court, said
our informant, Zone of the inmates) the
prisoners some times had to use water
that had stood in the tank two or three
days and got warm and unfit to drink.
He said it was not true that the prison
ers were forced to drink water out of the
same bucket that they used for slop pur-
poses. The fact that such a statement
was embodied in the report of the grand
jury (and this was the most shocking
and revolving allegation set forth) is &C
counted in this way by some: The jailor
in explaining the condition of the bed
clothing (Which been torn and badly
abusetl,) and the difficulty experienced in
keeping things clean, the pipes open, &C.,
(the prisoners some times tearing up
their blankets and stuffing them into the
pipes, remarked that some OF them were
so mean that they would use the water
bucket for a slop bucket. Perhaps this
may be the way of it, but if that grand
jury made the charge they did, couched
in such language as they employed, upon
no more foundation in fact, then they
have grossly slandered some body.
This paper does not knowingly misrep-
resent any one and certainly has no dis
position to do injustice to any one in
this matter. In speaking of the report
of the grand jury, and what came it, we
simply stated facts as they appeared to
us, and expressed our righteous indigna-
ton and adherence at such things as
were said to exist in our midst. If what
we said appeared too harsh (as We I'M
derstand it is regarded by some) we are
ready to modify by publishing in full, the
report of the grand jury, together with
the bill of Indictment as drawn by the
Solicitor. Are We asked to do so?

Mrs. Tom Thumb in Henderson.

The little folks of Henderson have been
happy. They have had show which
they could somewhat call their own. At
any rate they felt that the coming OF
that celebrated little lady Mrs. Gen. Tom
Thumb and her company was meant as
q sort OF compliment to the Juvenile por-
ton of humanity especially. The little
lady herself, Count Magri, her husband,
and Baron Magri, his brother, the little
ponies and carriage, and the little coach
man, were of course the centres of ad-
miring groups during their stay in town.
Saturday afternoon they gave a matinee
in Burwell Hall, and another perform
ance at night. On each occasion the
audience was small. The entertainment
vas quite meritorious and enjoyable.
The little people acquitted themselves
very handsomely, the Count especially
being a remarkably clever actor The
Japanese mggers were the best ever seen
on this stage.

Prof. Savage's Lecture.

The lecture of Prof. w. V. Savage,
principal of Henderson Male Academy,
at the Young Mems Christian Associ-
alton rooms Monday evening, was fully
up to expectation, and from the pub
lies knowledge of that gentleman s
scholarly attainments and ability as a
speaker, much was anticipated. His
subject was The Influence of Educa-
ton upon Popular Government,
which he discussed in an intelligent
and entertaining manner for the space
of As minutes. We cannot undertake
to follow Prof. Savage throughout his
discourse and mere cursory review
of his remarks would do the speaker
injustice. He talked on timely topic
and we trust talked to good purpose.
There is no more fruitful subject for
discussion or more wholesome food for
thought than that of education, and too
few people realize its influence upon
popular government.

THE INVENTION OF THE AGE.
J. B. Underwood, Esq, Invents a
Self-Feeding Automatic Cigarette
Machine.


has made the ':jack'' of his life by the
invention of the only strictly self-feed-
ing automatic cigarette machine in the
world to-day, which has been tested by
an experts and found to be fully capable
of manufacturing one hundred and fifty
thousand cigarettes per day. The ma
chine is truly marvel of simplicity
and durability, and is destined at no
distant day to revolutionize the cigar
cite manufacturing world.
Mr.. Underwood has. perfected this
wonderful piece of mechanism at the
cost of many years of patient toll and
experimenting, besides very consid-
cradle outlay of money. By those
competent to judge it has been pro-
nounced the invention of the age, ald
Mr.. Underwood has no doubt dealt the
blow that will ''break the camel's
back" in the great cigarette trust; for,
in view of the economy in operating,
coupled with the exceedingly small per
centage of waste-which. however, is
due to it's automatic, self-feeding per-
fections-it is patent to anyone at all
familiar with such things that it must
sooner or later supplant even the cele-
brated Bonsack machine, now controll-
ed by the American Tobacco Company,
and for which the said company pays
an annual rental of $250,000.
The next few months will develop
some startling revolutions in the cigar
cite manufacturing ofthe United States,
as the key has been found to unlock all
combinations. We are not, however,
in position to give further details. 1t
is known fact, though, that Mr.. I'm
derwood has been offered already large
sums of money for this new invention,
but if all reports are true a company
is in process of maturity for operating
the machine on an extensive scale.
The above is taken from the Fayette-
willie Observer. We hail with pleasure the
intelligence conveyed in this announce
ment and welcome the new invention as
the earnestly desired machine which is to
break the cigarette combination. We are
satisfied Mr.. Underwood had solved the
problem if his new machine is what it is
claimed to be. And right here we want
to say there is no better point anywhere
to manufacture cigarettes than Hender-
son. Situated as we are right in the CEN
tire of the famous bright tobacco district,
the peculiar flavor, mildness and general
excellence of the leaf to be had in great
est perfection and abundance, is equalled
no where else. Its superior adaptability
for smoking and cigarette making is ac-
owledged the world over. Railroad
facilities are ample and with the raw ma
terial everything is favorable to ma
king this great cigarette manufacture
| lug centre.
We are assured that if the company
| controlling the Underwood machine will
| bring it to Henderson and operate it,
our local moneyed men will put 800, 900
| in it. Now gentlemen, what do you say?
At any rate we suggest to them the
propriety of enquiring into the matter
and considering the claims of Henderson
before taking any decided steps.
