UPPER KENTUCKY TRADE.
A New Boat Owned by Frankfort
to Ply Between this City and
Shaker Ferry.

At last boat has been secured for
the upper Kentucky river trade,
which will be run directly in the in
terest of Frankfort.
Messrs. Shaw & Sheets are the
owners of the boat, a sternwheeler
named w. L. Norton, which formerly
belonged to the Mason & Foard Com
pany for their use at the Eddyville
prison.
Mr.. George Shaw, the well-known
merchant of this city, will have COM
mand and give personal attention to
everything relating to the business
that will insure the success of the en-
terprise. He proposes to make three
trips a week to. Shaker Ferry and
also have large pleasure barge pro-
vided with all necessary equipments
for excursion parties.
The boat is now undergoing an
overhauling and if finished in time
for the opening of the base ball sea-
son next Tuesday will make regular
trips that afternoon between the
wharf and the grounds at Lake Park.
1t is designed by the owners, how
ever, to enter the Shaker Ferry trade
at the earliest possible date, not later
than June 10th, and in order that
closer business relations may be es-
tablisbed between the merchants Of
this city and the people along this
important territory, should be favored
by a liberal patronage.

RESENTED HIS REMARKS.
A Father-In-Law About to Carve
up Attorney Hugh Rodman in
the Court of Appeals.

A little breeze was raised in the
presence of the highest court in the
State Tuesday during the argument
in the case of F. r. Hayden VS.. G. B.
Hayden, etc., which was appealed
in the Circuit Court of this county
The suit arose over dispute be-
tween father and son as to the pos
session Of tract Of 100 acres ofland in
the county, and after Gen. d. W. Lind
sey had spoken Tor the appellees, Mr..
Hugh Rodman, in the course of his
argument for the appellant, said that
the only person assisting G. B. Hay
den in the suit was his eX convict SON
in-law, Sim McGoris, alias Sim Mum
day. The whole family were present
and heard the remark and c.. B. Hay
den arose to his feet and exclaimed:
81 can't stand that" and appeared to
be in the act of going towards Mr..
Rodman when Chief Justice Bennett
ordered Sergeant-at-Arms w. s. B.
Hill to put the offending citizen out
of the court room. 1t is said by
those who were in the best position
to see, that Hayden had actually
drawn a knife and would probably
have carved up the court as well as
the attorneys, if he had not been
summarily elected in time.

TAX EXEMPTIONS.
An Estimate by Auditor Norman
For 1893 in the Entire
State.

All the tax returns for 1898 have
not yet been made to the Auditors
Office, but assuming that about twen-
ty counties, selected from all parts
the State would make fair average
test for the entire State, the Auditor
has computed the total taxable ex-
emptions on personal property this
year at 100000.
Though the old State Revenue Law
contained provisions for such exemp-
tions on certain designated kinds of
personal property, the new law en-
larged the scope of the exemptions
by allowing for each family, deduc-
tions of $3.50 in value on all personal
property and also differed from the
old act in providing a column in the
tax book in which to make returns of
such exemptions. 1t would not be
correct, therefore, to say that the
total exemptions returned for 1898 is
a sum which under the old law would
have been taxed, but it is safe to es-
innate that the adding to the words
"household goods" in the original
draft of the clause in the Constitu
tions, the words "other personal
property" has had the effect of in
creasing the exemptions as much as
seventy five per cent

A gentleman remarking upon the
hard lots that befall some men, said:
If every mans internal care,
Were printed on his brow
How many would our pity share,
That share our envy now
know a man Of wealth and full Of
honors who walks with a proud and
important air, as if nothing in this
world were better or more desirable
than what he already enjoyed. And
yet within the privacy of that mans
home there are griefs that bow him
to the ground, and which, if known
to the public would raise the pity
of everyone where now his seeming
success in life has raise the envy.
1t has often occurred to my mind, in
measuring the results of life, that
perhaps where one man was the loser
in one thing it was made up to him
in other particulars, and often may
be in burdens that turn out after
awhile to be the very source of Joy
which the apparently more fortunate
man would most covet."
Said bright, unmarried visiting
lady, from whose cheeks the frosts of
a number of winters have despoiled
the bloom of youth, but in whose
kind heart and laughing eyes the sun
Of an equal number of summers has
poured it's glowing rays:

was fairly raging here and came on

rather that it would catch me. Why

were three double weddings. Just
think Of it, and of the number that
are announced to take place within
the next month, and you can see for
yourself that Frankfort will be left
without sufficient proportion of
young ladies to give zest to society.
Now as it will never do to suffer an
interregnum, the old maids are
bound to come to the rescue and help
to manage the eligible young men
until the younger set Of sirls are fair.

without foundation, premature.
No instructions to cease deportation
proceedings have been received either
by United States Marshal Gard or any
other federal officer.
Yesterday was field day in the mat
ter of warrants, nearly q score being
issued. The greater number of these
sworn to by Detective Auble Of the
police department, and the list included
the worst characters and highbinders OF
the city. Among other names was that
OF Charley Ah Him.
Charley ia the worst Chinaman in the
whole outfit, and even his own country
men would hot be heartbroken to eee
him deported. He is at present in hid
ing and will probably remain so until he
obtains an opportunity to leave town.
Altogether it was highbinder day in
Judge Roses court.
The morning opened with the trial OF
Lem Soon. Lem swore that he had an
interest in the Chinese theater, q state
ment which was corroborated by All
Now, who testified to Lem Soon being
his manager.
Ex-Detective Bosqui and Deputy
Sheriff Wray stated that, they knew
him to be connected with the theater In
some business capacity, and Judge Ross
took Lem's case under advisement.
All Fawn, vulgarly known as John l..
Sullivan. from his pugilistic tendencies,
was next on the list.
All Fawn has for some considerable
period conducted gambling joint on
the plaza.
His defense was that gambler was
not q laborer. and Judge Ross took his
case under advieement also.
Four more high binders, who made
use of the came place, were tried and
their cases taken under advisement by
the court. A written decision will be
handed down by Judge Ross this morn
ing.
Judge Ling, who returned from San
Francisco yesterday. states that in an
interview with United States District
Attorney Garter of San Francisco, the
latter declared that he will refuse to
prosecute Cinnamon, and in the event
OF Chinese arrests being made that he
will Immediately move for their dis
charge.

A SAN FRANCISCO dispatch, published
elsewhere, Fays that Attorney General
Olney has issued instructions to United
States District Attorney Garter, of that
city. to oppose any proceedings in the
United States courts looking to the de-
portation of Cinnamon on the ground
that there are no funds in the treasury
for that purpose, and that the law must
remain dead letter until congress shall
appropriate additional moneys. On the
other hand, the secretary OF the treas
ury, in reply to the resolution OF SEN
ator White asking if there is any money
in the treasury available for carrying on
the Gesry law, puts the sum at $63, 800
larger sum than had been supposed to
be on hand. They ought to be amply
sufficient to deport compile of thousand
OF the recupent Celestiels. The attorney
general and the secretary of the treasury
appear to be at skies and sevens on this

THE METHoDISrS AND THB CHINESE.

The Methodist conference in session
at Monterey send word to the president
THAT the decision OF Judge Ross =
places new weapon in the
hands OF the anti-Chineee agitators now
causing trouble on this coast"
Reference here is, presumably, to
thoee who in certain localities are driv-
ing the Chinese away by force. But the
decision OF Judge Ross, on the contrary,
deprives such anti-Chinese agitators of
their weapons, for it provides a lawful
way OF getting rid of them. Instead of
causing trouble on this coast, it will
most likely save trouble.
The conference further declares, but
upon what authority is not stated, that
wholesale arrests OF the Chinese have
begun and hundreds of the Chinese,
lawful residents of this country, will be
thrown into prison."
Mr.. Cleveland will be sorry to learn
that the Chinese arrested under the de-
cieion of Judge Ross are 'lawful
residents of this country" Everybody
but the conference was of the opinion
that the arrests made under that de-
cision were made upon the sole ground
that the persons arrested were not law
full residents OF this country.

president that the Lawyers OF the Chi
