The curtain of the new English Opera

pair OF golden gates. 1t measures thirty
three feet high, and is forty-eight feet
wide. A special room had to be hired for
it TO be made in. The base of the curtain
is gold colored silk, on which has been
worked an applique of darker tone of the
same color The applique is outlined by a
fine cord of silk; fringe with tassels
decorates the foot of the curtain. The silk
is about yard wide, and between 500 and
COO yards OF it, and more than thirty gross
of cord, have been used in the curtain
The silk was made in Lyons and the
cord and fringe in London. The lining is
of yellow sateen, and the substance OF the
curtain Is obtained by layers OF wadding.
Tho valance is also applique work in bright
reds, blues, yellows and browns The I.y-
ceum curtain, which is made of plush, was
presented to Mr.. Henry Irving by the

That's loconic communication

He is one of the brainiest men
ever in the City Council OF Lex

thlest man in the city, and he has
drunk enough liquor to float a
stern wheel steamboat.
Mr.. Bruce has succeeded in
business, but if any Lexington
young man is going to start out in
life on the supposition that liquor
drinking will not do him any
damage, | would advise him to
see Mr.. Bruce, and get his opin-
ion on the subject, before he
starts.

Bro. W. w. Goddard of Harrods-
burg, and | were walking by the
house here, where james @,
Blaine conducted his famous court
ship, Bro. Goddard told me of q
sad instance that | had left out OF
the list of tragedies that had oc-
Cured within three miles OF my
home, within my recollection and
OF which l had not known. \
handsome and popular young man
of fine fortune had become des-
perate from iutcxication and blew
his brains out with pistol.
| am going to tell the people of
this town something that it seems
to me ought to startle them, and
which | think | can verify.
Whisky has been the immediate
cause of more deaths in this town
since first knew it than the war
and pestilences of every kind. ac-
cidents of all kinds (not including
those from drunkenness) burglars,
fires, floods, tornadoes, lightning
and earthquakes, all put together.
And yet when a Democratic
candidate was nominated here by
a crowd of men that the George
town Times, Democratic paper,
described as lot Of toughs who
yelled and fought because they
were drunk on mean whisky,
leading men from every church
in this town voted for him.
On Sundays aud several times
through the week the church bells
clang here until my rustic ear is
outraged and disgusted by the
clamor, and yet right in the midst
of the finest business houses of the
town stand the saloons that have
wrecked not only this poor miser-
able woman who took her thanks
giving dinner with us, but stand
ing right in full view ofthese hell
holes were the wrecks of men who
had debauched themselves with
whisky, and who started life when
L did, with fine fortunes and fine
families and as bright hopes as any
boys in the world.
And yet there are men here
who call themselves Christians
whose heads are gray and whose
feet are pushing clods over the
edge of the grave, who are just |
as blindly voting to keep up
these saloons, as were the people |
now dead and gone to the devil,
who voted for the saloons that |
ruined this poor woman, and
these miserable men years ago.
What can such a people prom
ise themselves? And if we accord |
to them such principles and pur
poses as we suppose characterize
all civilized people. how can we
for such conduct except ON
the supposition that they have
been deluded by demagogues,
until, on this one point, they have
not sound reason.

Lexington Needs u Woman
Mayor.

The courage shown by Mrs
Paxton, Mayor of Kiowa, Kansas,
in enforcieg the law there is thus
euloeized by the Cincinnati Post:
1t will be becoming, and a just
tribute to her excellence for every
male mayor, in the United States
to take of his hat, and bow rev.
erently before Mrs. Paxton the
female Mayor of Kiowa, Kansas
She is a cold water but not a milk
and water official; she is the quin-
tessence of grit, and there isn't
even an embryonic truckle in her
composition. What she wills she
wills, and "there's an end on it. =
The law was made to be enforced,
and she sent out brigade of dep
uty marshals to destroy all intoxi-
eating liquors, and nail up the sa-
doors. Nearly the whole
male town protested, and she
never winked. The male town
petitioned Council earnestly to
step into the breach and save
them, but she told the Council to
keep its mouth shut, and out of
the trouble, and it did. Then the
whole male town, with her own
dear duck of husband at the
head of the petition, entreated her
to resign, and she only smiled.
They told, her, she was running
things into the ground and she re
piled, "that was just where the
law authorized her to run the
whisky, and she was running it,
She was informed by the weak
and unprotected males that she
could never be elected mayor
again, and she said she had been
elected to enforce the law and it
was the only bid she had to offer
for votes. Then the thirsty Kio-
vans fell back on muscular ar
gument, threatening to organize a
mob and effect local revolution,
but she trumped this last card
with a remark, delivered in dulcet
feminine tones, that if her mar
shals should not be equal to the
occasion she would ask the Gov
ernor of the State to call out the
MALTA. The female Mayor of
Kiowa is mistress of the situation.
Yet there are some people who
maintain that women would be an
element of weakness in
politics. Weakness? Why it is
Just such womanly kind of la A.

but of fact, and you can neither
wheedle nor brow beat, nor fist
beat, nor stick beat, me into any
admission that men who have the
brains to fill important positions
in learned professions can not see
that their vote against Prohibition
by voting for Democracy or any
other party makes them particeps
criminis in the death of that young
man.
This whole town is politically
and religiously so rotten that the
buzzards hold their noses when
they fly over it.
The Baptists run the town, and
the President of the college here,
runs the Baptists. They are
building church here, in which
there is a thousand dollars of the
money of a distiller. The most
commendible institution in this
state is the State college at Lex
ington.
The other day coming down on
train, that President made an
elaborate argument to me against
state education. He had before
told me that he was opposed to
Prohibition because it was for
woman suffrage.
We want college like Girard
college, that wont let preacher
put his foot in it.
AT the Centennial l had a pass
to go into Girard college. 1t had
on it that no preacher was allowed
to go into it. l said to the old
door-keeper 81 used to be a
preacher but l am not now." He
He said "Well that's all right if
you have repented Of it, and
bowed me in.
l suppose thousand preachers
violated the conditions of their
permits and lied to get in there.
Ii they could have been identi-
fed they ought to have been
kicked out with a Bogardus
kicker.

asked one man of another, as he pointed
in a certain direction. NO, but this
is" answered the other, as he pointed to
whisky flask sticking out of the in
quirer's pocket. The answer was sure y
very correct. The whisky bottle is what
drives many people to the poorhOuse. 1t
makes them neglect their business; it
steals their earnings; it gives them bad
habits; it clothes them and their ch, =
dren in RAGS, and robs them of their
