BAD ON THE COLONEL.
Lexington Up In Arms to Down Con-
gresham Breckfnridge.

/ gressman Breckfnridge.
| LEXINGTON, KY, May 1.-THE peo-
pie of Lexington and vicinity are on
the tiptoe of expectation regarding
the anti Bre chinridge meeting set for
this afternoon. The people are thor
oughly aroused and those in posi-
ton to know say the meeting will be
monster affair.
In his sermon last night Rev. R. r.
Matthews, pastor of tho Main Street
Christian church, and a prominent
member of the Ministerial Union that
Colonel Breckenridge scored so terri
bly, in his speeches here and at Paris,
referred to the colonel in non compli-
mentary terms.
Among other things he said: s'None
of us ministers of the Ministerial
Union of Lexington are presuming to
dictate who shall or shall not be the
nominee of q political party. As
teachers of the gospel of morality we
are simply testifying and warming the
people as regards what L ind of a man
should or should not be q candidate or
nominee for public Office.
1--WE unitedly, in fear of God, de-
clare before the world that when an
immoral politician, standing in the
calcium light of Cesar's court, is ex-
posed to view in a life of sin, where
domestic sanctity and social morality
have been deliberately debauched,
and When ne steps from the witness
box and immediately announces
himself still as worthy of
representing the people because
he has suffered the pains of hell and
has confessed to the court his iniquity,
he merits our just rebuke. We de-
clare that while it is Christian duty
to forgive him and help him to a bet
ter life, his renomination and re-
election at the present time will be an
open defiance of all personal chastity,
domestic purity and religious integ-
rity-
I'VE appeal to the voters who honor
personal morality when choosing POI
ht1cal candidates. This man is cor
rupt and corrupting ton
of the social order of our community,
a debauching example for youth, in
every way peril to truth and right
eousness.'
This sermon made profound inn
preston on the congregation, and it in
all the talk around the hotels.

WASHINGTON, May 12.-There is a
probability that Senator White of
California may be placed upon the
finance committee, to fill the vacancy
occasioned Senator Vance's death.
1t had heretofore been regarded as al
most a certainty that Senator Mills
would secure the position, but since
his speech in which he expressed his
opinion of the compromisers, includ-
ing Messrs. Brice and German, to say
nothing of Messrs. Hill, Smith and
Murphy, his se1ectionn does not seem
such @ foregone conclusion.

Deafness Cannot be Cured.

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an infiamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result. and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroy
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous
sufaces.

TERRIABLE OIL FIRE.
Thirty-Five Firemen Badly Burned In
an Explosion at Braddock, Pa.

Thirty-Five Firemen Badly Burned In
an Explosion at Braddock, Pa.
BRADDOCK, Pa, May 1.-THE barrel
house of Emery's refinery in this city
took fire yesterday afternoon, pre-
sumably from spontaneous combus-
ton and was destroyed. The loading
rack and five tank cars standing on a
side track of the Buffalo, Rochester
and Pittsburg road were also burned.
While the fremen were making
final stand and thousands of people
were watching it, there was a ire
mendous explosion. A tank car hold
ing 4, 100 gallons of benzine had let go
with mighty roar. Fortuna tely the
burning benzine, which was thrown
in to the air IN sheets of liquid fire had
consumed Itself before settling down
over the crowd.
The explosion was followed by a
panic that cannot be described in
words. Blind, unreasoning, pitiless
instinct of self preservation showed
itself, and the weak went down be-
fore the strong multitudes of cases, ia
the frantic rush to escape what
seemed to threaten a horrible death
In the stampede men as we'll as
women and children were thrown
down and trodden over by the flying
masses that surged up from behind.
Th1rty-bve of the fremen were burn ed
so that the skin peeled of their faces
and hands, and the hair was singed
off their heads and faces. Of the
many others who are slightly burned
there is no record, and the total num-
Der of those burned and injured in
the stampede will probably reach 100
persons. With all the suffering this
fire will cause, the property loss will

In the Way Of Investments

it is evident that the best and most
solid investment, where speculation
is not contemplated, that is offered
in the United States today is a pol
icy in the New York Life Insurance
Company. In saying this I of course
have in mind every sensible mans
wish to proftably lay aside a GER
tain amount each year with view
Of its accumulating into a snug sum
IF wealth, or as a wise provision for
che comforts of old age, or for a
rainy day. AS an investment, it
will pay better interest than gov
ernment bond; and as for safety,
the NEW YORK LIFE is AS SOUND AS
THE GOVERNMENT ITSELF. Such
policy is at any time readily availa-
Die as SECURITY FOR LOANS, besides
being at all times a valuable asset.
There was a time when all life in
surance was simply game at which
4 man had to die to win. The New
York Life has developed it into a
great system of advantageous in
vestment in which the old idea of a
provision in case of death is but one
feature.
A policy taken in the New York
Life Insurance Co., for two, five,
ten or twenty thousand dollars for,
say a term of twenty years, costs
an annual sum to maintain it; but
every dollar that is paid goes to
swell the fund that will come back.
One will come in possession of a
small fortune at the age of Al from
a policy taxed at Il, concerning the
accumulation of which he has had
no anxieties. If, on the other hand,
he dies early or late after taxing
out his policy, his heirs will receive
the full amount of the insurance.
When you realize how dear your
wife, children, mother or sister are,
and how much they would gladly do
for their comfort and safety, then
resolve to insure your life for ther
benefit that you may do your best
for them, living or dead; and when
life seems prosy, and all men selfish,
let your resolution still hold. If YOU
are true, and noble, and unselfsh,
there will be one bright spot in the
world.

Mr.. ]. c. Robinson, who lives out
miles in the country, and who is
now in attendance on Circuit court,
| informs us that on Friday last, he
saw two strange negroes passing
! his place, mounted on fine mules,
W tn good trappings, who were in
q iring their way to Line Ferry, on
R I'd River. On reching the ferry
and finding it unattended the ne
e oes entered the boat and ferried
Il emselves across. On reaching
tie opposite bank of the river the
n groes turned the ferry boat loose
t. float down stream, and mounting
tl,eir mules rode away, indicating
ft ar of pursuit and intention of
checking same by doing away with
tie means of crossing the river.
One of the mules was sOrrel in col
o., while the other was black. The
n egroes came from the direction of
Texarkana, and nothing more has
been heard of them after crossing
the river. As yet no report of sto-
len mules has been heard, but from
the circumstances of the case it is
more than likely that somebody has
lost a fine pair of mules.

MISPLACED SWITCH.

was current on the streets yester-

been greatly exaggerated. The
wreck involved three coaches of the

misplaced switch some
distance beyond the coal
,hute, had three coaches, two
chair cars and a sleeper, derailed.
The cars were overturned but not
materially damaged, while both
