Miss Williams is the handsomest
daughter of Mr.. H. G. Williams, for
merly of Harrodsburg. DR.. Powers is
Kentuckian, being son of one of
the most prominent Baptist ministers
in the State. He was educated at the
colleges at Winchester and George

He now holds a responsible position
among the profession of his adopted

This is the time of year when ad-
vertisers should do their most effect
i've work; now is the time when
hustling business men push the hard
est. They have got to push. 1t is a set
tied fact that advertising is necessity
Just the same as house in which to
do business in is. Show us the firm
that don't advertise, and we will show
you one that is dead. We don't wish
to impart the idea that all advertising
pays. What to say, how to say aud
when to say it, are points to be wisely
settled. Some conclude that circulars
well written and distributed are the
most effective. We grant this a good
method for instance a firm gets
thousand circulars, for which they
pay from $3.50 to $500; should one of
the proprictors distribute them the
cost would be not less than two dol
lars more and probably many times
this sun, because customer might
drop in his place of business the time
he is out and fail TO be pleased be-
cause this member of the firm, who
usually waited on him, was not pres
ent, and thereby the loss cannot be
estimated. Then if every one of the
circulars tell into the hands of persons
who would make good customers, it
would not be as effective as an adver-
tisement in newspaper with an aver
age circulation, and the cost would be
one-half, and aside from building up
the advertisers business, it would also
promote the interests of the publisher.
While circular advertising is benefi.
cial, those in the newspapers bring in
better results. Care must be taken
in the wording of advertisements =.
The trade should not be made to ex-
pect more than what is to be given and
the medium is the most important to be
considered of all, Don't be talked
into thing against your judgment.
You should know the number and
character of readers, and this should
determine where to place the adver-
tisement. Advertising is necessary,
and equally so is the choice of the
proper medium.

BLOOD FOR BLOOD.
The Wild Work of a Drunken
Man at Beattyville.
Sheriff Killed, and the Murderer
Hanged by Mob.

A gentleman who returned from
Beattyville Sunday night brings news
of a bloody aff'ray at the gates of the
Fair Grounds at that place.
On Saturday afternoon drunken
man, Oscar Morton, from near Stan
ton, Powell county, presented himself
at the gate and demanded admission
to the Fair Grounds. The gate-keeper
refused to let him pass without a
ticket. Morton, still trying to pass,
was knocked down twice by the gate
keeper, Chas. Hogg. Morton then
went off, and, arming himself with
two pistols, came back to the gate and
declared he would pass in. The
Sheriff, w. A. Simms, who was at
hand, stepped forward to arrest Nor
ton, when without warning he drew
two pistols, and opening fire, shot the
Sheriff three times, killing him. The
gate-keeper then fired on Morton,
striking him in the face and breaking
his lower jaw. Morton was arrested
and placed in jail. Saturday night
about l o'clock mob of one hundred
men went to the Jail, and taking Nor
ton out, hung him to the rails of
bridge near at hand. The mob was
very quiet about its work.
Morton claimed he did not know
whom he had killed nor ,wh oft was
that knocked him down. All the
same, the mob swung him into eter-'
nifty. Morton was under $4,000 bond
for killing man named Wilson in
Breathitt county only short time
since.
