A "REMINISCENCES OF DANIEL BOONE.
Kentucky Court Records Show That He Wa
Indicted for Fighting in 1887.

Louisville, Dee. i5.--In oyerhauling
the dusty records of the Warren county
court the other day the clerk ran across a
historical curiosity. In the records for the
secord courts Tor the county, the courts OF
quarter sessions, held III June, 1877, was
the indictment of Daniel Boone. This was
the great Indian fighter, and the records
show that he was guilty of Fighting the
first Tuesday in April, l797. at the place
appointed for holiing courts"
This WAS the day on which the first quar-
ter sessions court was held Tie man with
whom he lad the fight is named in the in
dicrment as Andrew McFasltliu. Mead
din probably lived in the country, and there
is family of McFadJins there now, but
Boone then resided at Boonesborough, Is
miles from Lexington. He had probably
came down there on a hunting expedition.
and in attending court got into the trouble
with McFaddin.
The fight was evidently not serious
one, probably not being more than tisti-
cuff, but that was a lawabiding community
and they knew too many 1nnian fighters to
respect Gen: Boone, "backwoodsman of
Kentucky as Byron terms him. war
rant was issued for his arrest and signed by
VIM. Chapine. Chapline was clerk of the
quarter sessions court. He was a neat pen
man and his records of % years ago are
nearly as legible now as when they left his
gray goose quill. The man to whom the
warrant was issued for the arrest OF Boone
returned it endorsed, 1.-THE within Daniel
Boone not found in my bailiwick," and an
other record shows that the indictment was
finally dismissed.
Boone left Kentucky in 1898, which per-
haps accounts for the failure to find him
in 1.-THE bailiwick.' 1t is tradition that
before he left he went down to Western
Kentucky. His name is rudely carved on
a beach tree on the north side of Barren
river, three miles from Bowling Green, and
has been there longer than the earliest in
habitamt can remember. There were other
hunters in that section too, and they came
ahead of Daniel Boone, for they carved
their names on trees in l715. The most
conspicuous tree has thirteen names cut on
the north side The highest mark is nine
feet above the ground, the lowest four feet
They stand in the following order, begin
ming with the uppermost and descending to
the lowest: j. Newell, i. Bulger, |. Hite,
V. Hammond. J. Jackman W. Buchannon,
A. Bowman. Tho. Slaughter, and j. Todd.
The date is thus given: 'El77j. June the
10" The apparent age Of the marks cor
responds with the date. About five steps
south of this tree, and near the edge of the
river bank, stands beech marked on the
north side with the name of William Buc-
harmon and dated June II, i7775. On the
south side of the same tree is the name of
J. Todd, dated June IL, l11j.

MpAN'S POLITICAL CONDITION.
The Great Difficulty Of Constructing an
Eifcien. Japanese Navy.

san FEsNCIsco. Cal, Dee. 1.-The
steamship Peru has arrived from China and
Japan. The present state of political
parties in Japan is said to be one of great
seriousness. At kagoshima last month sew
eral collisions occurred between members
of different partier, in wbicl, number OF
men were seriously wounded
Count Itagaki, leader Of the ,liyute party
has published an article treating of the cx-
tension of the Japan navy. He holds that
Japan must abolish her present form of
limited defense of the country as Il whole
TO construct Notifications at various
points of the coast, or maintain several
naval headquarters, he considers is ineom-
patible with the general geographical con-
struction of the country. He estimates that
to construct men-of-war to the extent of
100, 900 tons would cost $50, 1000 900 and
the period of completion would be 10 years.
Were these vessels ordered from abroad
about s. 900, 900 would flow out of the
country each year, but, as the industries of
the country increase in volume every wear,
Count Itagaki takes the view that the bal
ance between exports and imports would
not be upset.
Fire on November 10 destroyed GOO
houses at Toxic.
A portion of the limestone mine at Nava-
vamura fell Oh Nov. S. burning six miners
and 30 coolies all of whom persisted.
Advices from China state that the mum
dation by the overflow of the Yellow river
was deeper and more extensive than in 1889
but the distress which ensued is likely to be
less than in former years. The millet crop
is well above water and will be safely har-
vested.
The first section Of the Imperial Railway
from kuyeh to Lanchow, a distance of p
miles, has been opened.

The Ma,lnnnas Of BottlcelIi.

AS we examine the various madonna
by Boiticelli in the galleries of London
Berlin, Paris and Florence we canno
fail to be struck by the ardor of emotion
that seems to have animated the painter
in his search for the perfect type Of
beauty realized in the Growing of the
Virgin" The construction of the head
of the Virgin is essentially the same il
all Botticelli's pictures, but the fleshl,
mask and the expression vary, and TIN
final charm of each one remains an un
decipherable puzzle.
We feel that this madonna is an init
mate vision of tho ideal woman VIII,
Unparalleled" the painters soul; st
Dante speaks of Beatrice, the object o
Surprising desire. We marvel at TIN
mouth, at the eyes, at the eyelids, at thu
sweep of the brows, at the thick COLDER
threaded hair, at the splendor of TIN
draped head over which angels hold l
crown, at tho beautiful color of TIN
flesh, which suggests souvenir of th'
Vita Nuova.'
She hath that pa'eness Of the pearl that's tit
In n fair woman: So much and not more;
She is as high as natures skill can soar;
Beauty is tried by her comparison.
