Lock Located.

Major D. w. Lockwood, U. S. Engi-
neer in charge of the rivers of Ken
lucky, came over from Cincinnati on
Monday and accompanied Capt. r. S.
Burnett, the resident engineer in
immediate charge of the Kentucky
river, up the river for the purpose of
looking at the points suggested for
the location of Lock No. 7. After
viewing the different points he finally
selected a location some distance
above High Bridge, in order to take
advantage Of the natural pool water
which extends several miles up the
river from that point. The land will
be purchased at once and all arrange
ments made to put in a Golfer dam
early in the spring, make the ex-
cavation and push the work Of build
ing the lock next season. Nothing
can be done this year rs the stone
for the lock walls has already been
gotten out and dressed in the quarry
at Rock Shoals, near b eattyviIle and
cannot be towed down from that
point until the spring rains give
sufficient water in the upper Ken
lucky for the purpose.
The dam at Lock No. gives a
depth of nine feet Of pool water on
Cow Shoal, just below High Bridge,
at the prese mt stage of the water, and
the pool between Locks Nos. and
win be the longest on the river,
only little dredging just above the
bridge being necessary to make it
navigable at the lowest stages Of
water

How TO GIVE DINNER
Some Useful Hints to Young
HOSteSSeS.
NEVER LOSE YOUR COMPOSURE
A Simple Dinner is Often Acceptable to Exact
ing Guests-'The Man Who Eats
Your Salt Is Sacred.n

1t is the wife who must struggle with the
problem of domestic defeat or victory
When Washington Irving was presented
at the Court of Dresden his Saxon majesty
remarked: "Mr. Irving, with republic
30 liberal you can have no servants in
America"
ayes, sire, we have servants, such as
they are" said the smiable author of the
Sketchbook, "but we do not call them
servants; we call them 'helpn
81 cannot understand that" said the
King.
The Kings mental position was not illog-
scal, for with his experience Of the servile
position with the domestic IN Europe be
pould not reconcile to his mind the declara
lion of social equality in America.
And the American hostess must, it would
seem, for many centuries, if not forever
have TO struggle against this difficulty
AS some writer said twenty years ago of
this question: "Rich as we are in money,
profuse in spending it to heighten the en-.
joyment of life. the good servant, that
essential of comfort and luxury, seems
beyond our reach. Superine houses we
have and supertine furniture and super
fine ladies and all the other opportunities to
excess, but the skillful cook, the handy
maid and the trusty nurse we rarely
possess"
Thus. afar from the great cities, and
even in them, we must forget the instru-
ments with which we work, instead OF
finding them ready to our hand, as in other
countries.
That is TO say, the mistress of house
hold must teach her cook to cook, her
waiter to wait her laundress to get up fine
liner. She is happy if she can get honest
people and willing hands, but trained
servants one cannot expect to find out OF
the great centres of life.
And on considering what has been ex-
pected of the American woman, has she
aot done rather well? That she must be
nrst servant-trainer, then housekeeper,
wife, mother and conyersationalst, that
abe must keep up with the always advanc-
ing spirit of the times, know how to read,
write and cipher, TO be beautifully dressed
10 play the piano, to make the wilderness
blossom rs the rose, TO be charitable
thoughtful and good, to put the mind at its
ease to strive to learn how to do all things,
Ia the best way.
ALL THIS is EXPECTED OF HER
10 be student Of good taste and good man.
