Said He Shot Penrose,

The man Mccormick, who surren-
dered to the authorities at Crystal
Lake, Mimi, and confessed himself
the slayer Of w. j. Penrose, of Butte,
subsequently made his escape from
Jail. Prior to his disappearance he
stated that he regretted his rashness
in making partial confession. He
stated that he was employed to do
the deed by man upon whom lot
had been cast at secret meeting of
prominent Butte men; that Penrose
had been warned to leave Butte on
account of his opposition while in
the Legislature to measures demand
ed in the interest of miners and
partly on account of intense hatred
between Irishmen and Cornishmen
in that city. Mccormick may have
been the assassin of w. j. Penrose
but his story is not received with
much credence by the authorities.

Learning While Young.

The grand jury of Flathead coun-
ty has brought in four indictments
against Sheriff Gangner. One in
dictment alleges that the sheriff
rendered and swore to false board
account for feeding prisoners. The
other two alleges that the sheriff
swore to the performance of certain
service which evidence adduced in
the grand jury room shows was new
er performed, one account being the
expense of trip from Kalispel to
Havre, amounting to s32, which it is
claimed was not made, and another
item being the expense of serving
warrant amounting to s36. The
grand jury find that no such warrant
was ever issued. Judge Dubose fix
ed at $1,000 for each indictment,
which Gangner furnished, making
bonds of $4,000 in all the sheriff has
had to give. An indictment for en-
bezzlement was returned last week.

CHARLOTTESVILLE.

1t is with feeling OF embarrassment ]
enter as correspondent from an old town
as Garnettsville, one so well known to
old Kentucky, but as / have not seen
anything from this point l Judge the reg
ular reporter from this place has reas-
enable excuse for not sending in few
jottings. | take the liberty to report this
week and hope one or both of the past
writers will report this week as noticed
some time ago that there were two re-
porting from this place, and they should
report request this not TO be published.
1t seemed some time ago that Spring
had unbarred the gates of Winter, but
later it seems as if Winter has again
closed her gates. February can't March
but April May.
L. A. Faurest, our E-town attorney,
made visit to .his parents few days

Our merchant has not yet closed the

Real estate transfers: DIR. J. ID. Ham,
ilton sold 100 acres of land near town to
Thomas Chamberlain, also one town lot
to DIR. Walker; IL. M. Hutchinson sold
his store and goods to w. Yates, who will
be found at the old stand, Mr.. Hutcha-
son retiring from the business.
d. Young is repairing and building two
houses. So Garnettsville is still living.
Garnettsville and Vine Grove base ball
clubs had match game Saturday. Have
not yet heard how the game was. The
boys say il any one don't think they can
play ball to open their face and come to
see them, that any club can get their
company. But base ball is like ten cent
novels, the more you know of it the less
you get from them. But, as | am a par
taker of both will let up.
l will agree with the correspondent of
this place that the pillow share has been
discarded for new spring suit, but it is
a base ball suit.

JUDGE J. A. Murray Of this city has
made application for the Office Of Dis
trict Attorney of Kentucky. 1t seems
hardly necessary for the News to speak
of Judge Murray's fitness and of his
qualifications for this position. Where
ever he is known he stands in the front
rank of his profession, and having prac-
ticed in most all the courts in this part
Of the State for the last twenty-five years
his ability for this position stands with
out question. The Judge is well endors-
ed both by the bar and the citizens of
this part of the State, and as far as that
may 60 to securing the place he will
lack nothing. The News hopes that he
may be successful.

Beware of 0intments for Catarrh
that Contain Mercury.

AS mercury will surely destroy the sense
OF smell and completely derange the
whole system when entering it through
the mucous surfaces. Such articles
should never be used except on prescrip-
tons from reputable physicians, as the
damage they will do is ten fold to the
good you can possibly derive from them.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F.
j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, o., contains no
mercury, and is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous sur

Lend a Hand to One Another. y

Were the words written by little
Corinee Barbo on the evening before the
holy angels came TO tide her over to that
place where Jesus said "Suffer little chill
dren TO come unto me-" Notwithstanding
her long months Of suffering with that
dreadful disease, consumption, upon the
evening before her death came she asked
mamma for slate and pencil and wrote
lines:
"Lend a hand to one another
In the daily toll Of life,
When we meet weaker brother,
Let us help him in the strife.
There is none so rich but may
In his turn eb forced to borrow,
And the poor mans lot to-day
May become our own Tomorrow
know you miss your darling's bright and
sunny face,
But she has gone with the holy Angels TO
dwell in a brighter place.
VOu look upon her many toys with sad
and broken heart
You have laid her dolls away to rest, for
dolls and darling must part.

Success to the BREcKENRIDGE News.

TIE News is pleased to learn that the
citizens of Hardinsburg have enlisted in
the work of building college in that
town. While we have no direct interest
in the matter, yet if the undertaking is
successful it will add more wealth to our
county and particularly to the town OF
Hardinsburg, in the prosperity of which
every citizen must feel more or less con-
cerned. The development OF one part of
our county must add something to the
prosperity Of the whole If properly con-
sidered. A college such as we under
stand has been proposed TO the citizens
of Hardinsburg, will put new life into
the place and largely increase her social
and intellectual surroundings. More,
in a pecuniary sense it is bound TO put
several thousand dollars into the town
every year, and thus develop il and
build it up, as no other public enterprise
would just at this time. We recall
several towns in this State that are al
most entirely maintained by their
schools alone. The same could be said
of Hardinsburg if the present enterprise
is carried out upon the plans which have
already been suggested. The News feels
that interest in this matter for the peo-
pie of Hardinsburg TO say that we would
not like to see this enterprise fail and go
TO some other county near us, and there
is hardly probability of such being the
case, II they will subscribe literally to
the fund which they are very able to do.

ing the late rise, Mr.. Green having cap

man is always attended with more or less
danger.
This cold, disagreeable weather has
caused great many long faces among
the farmers and housekeepers, one and
all fearing it will retard the growth of
grain and vegetables, and wondering if
the fruit is not injured. The fishermen
too, who have been camping on the bank
of the creek for the past ten days, seem
little bit blue, but if they are gifted
with patience "Luck will come to those
who wait" AS the sun has been shining
brightly all day we would not wonder il
they have thrown out their hooks, trust
ing in the old adage, "The better the day
the better the deed" Guess the young
man who staid behind and walked home
from Sunday School with one of our pref
test girls thought that was better than
fishing in Rough creek.

A TEST CASE.
The Law Against Drummers Deliv
ering Goods at the Time
They Take Orders
Will be Tested in the Breckenridge
Courts.

Mr.. +. Stein, who claims to be a Gin
cinnati jewelry drummer, was arrested
here last Thursday for peddling without
a license. His manner of working is to
go to the dealers with large stock of
goods, sell and deliver all at the same
time. Hewas tried Saturday and fined
500, just what the law says the fine shall
be. An appealto the Circuit Court was
taken and Stein deposited Sl25 in the
Breckenridge Bank to cover fine and cost.
The plaintiff claims that selling and
delivering goods TO merchants is not ped
ding, and that the meaning and inten-
ton of the law is to protect retail mer-
chants against peddlers who go from
house to house and retail goods in COM
petition with the retail merchants. As
retail merchants are bona .fde citizens,
own property, pay taxes, city license, etc.,
the peddlers law is probably good one,
though 1t is condemned by many citizens.
Stein claims that he favors merchants
by delivering the goods at the time of
sale by saving freights, expressage, ETC.,
and that the merchant, by this saving, is
able to present his goods 10 his customers
at lower price than he could otherwise
do.
This will be test case and will be car.
ried through the courts as Stein claims
that he has the backing OF wholesale mer-
chants. Judge j. A. Murray is STEMS
attorney, and he thinks that there will
be no trouble in convincing the Court
that selling and delivering to merchants
is no violation of the law.

We know Of no absolute protection
from the attacks of this insect. Usually
the plants can be saved from destruc-
ton or serious injury by applications of
land plaster. bone dust or almost any
other dust-like material. When. as is
sometimes the case the beetles appear
in large numbers, they may destroy the
young plants in spite of such applica-
tions. Paris green is a promising rem
edy, and if little lime is added to the
Paris green water the foliage will not
be injured. Apply it in fine spray,
taking care to reach the lower side of
the leaves. There are spraying nozzles
now made for that particular purpose.
One favorite method of keeping Oft the
beetles and killing the maggots. if there
are any at the roots, is TO cover the
ground around the plants on each hill
with an inch or more of tobacco dust.
Soaking the ground near the roots with
a solution of saltpeter, limewater or to-
bacco is also likely to give relief from
maggots. Gardening.
