WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 4.-The cor
rcspondcnce which the President has
promised to send to Congross upon the
Baltimore's sailors at Valparaiso will
not be sent in tomorrow. In fact there
is reason 10 believe that some days will
clapsc before the public may know Off
cially just what has passed between tho
dc :artmeEt OF state and Minister Egan
on ono side and the Chilean minister OF
foreign affairs and Minister Montt on
tho other. Official announcement OF
the practical completion OF tho judicial
proceedings in Valparaiso and the in
tention Of the Chilean legal authori-
ties to punish tho three Chilcans
convicted OF participation in the assault
has given satisfaction hero and is gem
orally. regarded rs q distinct concession
by the Chilcans to the United Statcs, as
showing that there will notin all proba-
bility be any further undue delay in
the disposition OF the case. The tidings
have not, SO far as can be learned, been
officially made known to Secretary
Blaine by Minister NIontt,and it may be
that tho latter will await the sentence
OF the convicted Chilcans before he
presents to tho secretary the conclu-
sions reached by tho judicial authors
ties OF his country. With matters in
this promising condition, it is there
fore unlikely that u disturbing clement
will be introduced in tho negotiations
by the publication OF tho incomplete
correspondence.

about four-legged girl, hence it is
not surprising to see thousands of

every day to see her. If she walked

Keep Up the Good Work.

The Chronicle had promised itself
as we'll rs Its readers that it would
drop the subject of better roads in
Powell county, as no ono seemed To
care anything about the same
Since making that promise upon a
reconsideration we have concluded
to keep hammering away in the
hope that those most interested, or
those who should he most interest
ed ut least, would III time lend Il
helping hand, and assist in push
ing the project to a successful con,
clusion. We believe yet they VIII
do it.-Clay City Chronicle.

Better Roads.

Efforts are being made to im-
prove the condition of country
roads throughout the land. and If
the people expect these efforts to
prove successful they will have to
turn in and do something besides
talking. Its all right to deplore the
wretched condition of highways;
but ;leploring won't remedy the
matter. Col. Albert A. Pope, who
is Mt the head of the road reform
movement, requests all to sign u
petition to congress asking for the
appropriation of sum of money
sufficient To make n comprehensive
road exhibit next year at the world s
fair. MS well as urging the establish
nlent of federal bureau for the
hetterment of the roads of the
country. and the instruction of stu
dents who may become expert road
| builders. As far as the exhibit at
the worlds fair is concerned, the
! idea at once commands approval,
because in no other way could an
expenditure of money be- made to
WELD such large results and give an
impetus TO the movement. As TAI
Ms the establishment of n federal
bureau is concerned, that is n diff
fcrent and useless thing. Road
building is hardly proper object
of federal supervision, any more
than giving instruction in wagon
making, running saw mills or th'
practice of dentistry would be. l.
the several states are too lndltier
ent to establish their own road bu
reaus, they will be too Indifferent
10 learn what Uncle Sam nigh
want to teach them; and If the.
really want good roads and are pre-
pared to pay for them, they vii
learn how to build them withou
asking the federal government t.
show them.
But the agitation of the roa'
question is wise one, and villa
il inevitably must-result in bet
ter roads, which means saving q
money to all concerned, the tax

wavs. In order to get better road
it isn't necessary to establish fec

of which would necessarily be n
appropriation. All that is neces'

what Kentucky Pays For Schools

Kentucky evidently has the best
school law of any State. Five
months in every year the sum OF
$i,750000 is paid out to teachers to
conduct the schools in every coun-
", which is an average of $3.50 600
per month that il set aside for this
purpose. All this money is raised
by taxation--tKat is, our state tax
amounts to AZ cents on the SlOO
worth of property, and of this
amount over twenty cents of ii goes
into the common school fund, email :

A Good Sized Lunch.

Lanark county, Canada, has been
exerting herself to produce n unique
exhibit for the worlds fair, and If
nothing happens she will succeed
in whetting the appetites of all
the gastronomes and epicures who
visit mt Chicago in 1898. AT the
present time there lies awaiting
shipment at Perth, Canada, n cheese
such as was never before seen any
where. 1t weighs a trifle more than
22,OO0 pounds and it's huge disc is
six feet thick. Every COW in Lanark
county contributed three days
milk to the exhibit and local con-
noisseurs declare that the quality
of the product is preeminently
good.

Oppressive Taxation.

The new revenue law requires
that business men pay tax on their
book accounts. Many men are do
ing business on borrowed capital
and paying high rate of interest
and if they have to pay tax ON their
accounts their interest will cost
them all their profits. 1t strikes
ms that this is nm extreme measure
and will work hardship on the
very class of men who need protec-
tion.-Carlislc Mercury.

is the election, another great item of
popular interest will he the inaug-

foretell how many items of interest
to horsemen, or how important
items, will be published in the Ken
lucky Stock Farm during the next
fourteen months. This much can
be relied upon, that they will all be
published and as soon rs they take
place; yet the Kentucky Stock
Farm offers to send its paper from
date TO January lS9i--a period of
thirteen months--for two dollars,
the regular price of years sub

rare offer and one of which horse

road proposes to have II across Lake
Michigan from Kewaunee to Frankfort.
The ferry steamer nov in course of con-
struction will cost 500 900, and it Is
expected to carry forty freight cars and
make the sixty mile crossing III five
hours. This will save from six dollars
to twelve dollars on each car, the shift
ing of freights costing that much more
than ferrying the cars, and there will
be much less liability to breakuge.
