The Republicans of the Eighth Ken
lucky district have nominated ex.State
State Senator Roberts, of Madison, to
oppose the reelection of Congressman
MCCREARY, and as both hail from Mad
ison they are likely TO have hot fight at
home. JEEMs, however, is such slick
citizen and so oily of tongue withal that
his followers feel no cause for uneasiness
as to the ultimate result. This makes
the eighth time MIR. McCREARY has
been nominated by the Democrats.

No section Of Kentucky Is today more
earnestly interested in educational mat
tiers than the mountains of Eastern
Kentucky. The prominence attained by
two young men of our own town
GoDsEy and SwANGo-as orators of ex-
traordinary ability and eloquence has,
together with our improved school facil-
ities, demonstrated to our people the
Importance of education as they never
before viewed it, and now that they are
aroused they are enthusiastic Every
good father and good mother is now try
ing to devise ways and means by which
they can educate their children, and as
a consequence many of them attended
the exercises at the academy here last
week. Further proof of this interest is
manifested in the daily inquiries which
we hear about an exclusive school for
young ladies boys college; business
trining school, ETC., etc, which shows
that they are seeking the best. Our own
Hazel Green Academy and other schools
supply many with their immediate needs,
but most of the inquirers wish to pro-
vide for the boy or girl who wishes to
$50 up higher" Let the good work go
on, and GoD grant that the time may
soon come when parents will realize that
they commit crime against their own
children when they tail to educate them.

The press association which met at
Frankfort last week is said to have had
a delightfully."- enjoyable time in that
little city. An excursion up the river
to Tyrone was one of the features Of the
occasion, and the banquet and ball at the
Capital Hotel were each very grand, to
say nothing Of the reception by Governor
and Mrs Brown. IoN b. NALL, of the
Farmers Home Journal, was elected
president; JOHN A. BELL, of the George.

to maintain the good name that officer
has succeeded in establishing for that

every man who has visited the bluegrass

JEWELL has done more for moral reform
in Lexington than all the officials she
ever had" aud in the light of such evil

is unwise to invite him to step down

good work so well begun. Let well

this case, and we give the advice gratui-

On the eighth page of this issue APP.
pears a card from our friend, Hon. G. b.
HILL, of Beattyville, announcing his
candidacy for congress from this district.
BRICK HILL is too well known to many
in the district to require an introduction
at our hands, and THE HERALD has on
other occasions expressed its opinion Of
him, which, briefly told, is: He is one of
the best fellows under the sun and emf.
nently fitted aud qualified for any place
to which he could be exalted. The only
candidate polled in this county is Mr..
KENDALL, and the county is therefore
conceded to him as first choice. There
is, however, nothing to prevent Mr..
Hills friends from voting for him on
the ballots and thus securing second in
structions, and this we hope they will do,
and let the other fellows alone. BRECK
HILL would make a congressman who
would honor the district and be credit
to his constituents, and we do hope his
claims may meet with favorable consid-

ACADEMY EXERCISES
A Gala Week in the History of Hazel
Green's Educational Institution
Closes in a Blaze Of Glory.
And People who Attend Pronounce the
Examinations and Entertainments
All That Could BE Desired.

Specially Reported for THE HERALD
Last week was indeed great one in
the history of Hazel Green Academy.
The exercises, entertainments and gave
ties of the past commencement far ex-
celled any other in the history of the
institution. 1t was also the close of the
most prosperous session in the history of
the academy. The catalogue just issued
from this office contains the following
summary; Boarders, 6S; pupils in town
temporarily, 8; day pupils, so; enrolled
in teachers course, so 4; enrolled in music
class, %; total enrolment 49, The
above summary isa hattering testimonial
of the popularity and success of the
school.
MONDAYS ENTERTAINMENT.
The entertainment at the academy on
Monday evening by the little ones was
all that could be desired, and away
beyond the expectations of many visitors,
who did not know what bright children
Hazel Green possesses. Some of these
little tots deserve especial mention, but,
in accordance with our custom on like
occasions, we shall give no names, lest
we err in our judgment and honor the
wrong ones. Suffice to say they all
acquitted themselves in the best manner,
and deserve world of praise tor their
patience and toll.
TUESDAYS ENTERTAINMENT.
On Tuesday night the children of
larger growth" had their entertainment,
and it was also pronounced success in
every particular That both the enter
tainments, however, compare favorably
with any similar ones given in Kentucky
we are convinced, and the faculty de-
serves great praise for their patience in
producing such proficiency in so short a
time besides attending to the routine of
school duty.
YOUNG MEMS CONTEST.
Wednesday evening was the scene OF
the young mems declamatory contest
and to say it was battle royal would
be putting it mildly, 1t was conceded
by all present to be not only one of the
best but the most holly contested oratori'
cal battle ever waged on the academy
rostrum. The young mon were all in
the pink of condition and each proved

THE GAMES CLOSED.
Publicity Spells Protection for
the Gamblers.
THE TWO OPEN HOUSES RA,pEo.
Gene Way Caught Dealing Faro at the
Busier-A Valuable Fare Box
Among the spoils.

The special privilege and protection
afforded TO the gambling houses of Gene
Way and Tom Ur9hart ceased temporarily
yesterday when the facts were made pub
lie by the PosT-INTKIIrGEScER The adj
ministration does not care how much ITS
pets are allowed 10 conduct gambling
games 80 long as the general public is de-
luded into the belief that the houses are
kept closed. 1t is not the offense of gam
bling but the publicity that is objected to.
These games have been running openly
for days, and detectives of the police de-
partment have been frequenters of Gene
Ways saloon, connected with the Butler
gambling rooms, and must have seen the
unmisiakable signs of the game going on
IN the rooms above. vet the police depart
ment, doubtless acting under instructions,
took no official ccgnizaLee of the existence
of the games until the Posr-fSTELIIsEScER
called attention 10 them yesterday morn
ing. Then the disagreeahie duty of ar
resting the friends of the administration
was performed
Chief Willard went to the municipal
court yesterday and swore out search war
rants for the two houses mentioned in the
PosT-isTgLLIGrNcFR About 10 O'Clock
last night he sent Detective Roberts and
Patrolman Peer to Urqhart's place over
Siorah's saloon, on Commercial street,
and Detective Phiibrick and Capt Hanna
TO Gene Ways place in the Butler block.
Roberts and Peer surprised the CONNER
ciai street crowd and took Frank Edwards,
who was caught dealing faro, TO headqusr-
tiers with ali the paraphcrnalia- No'resist-
ance was made, although the gamesters
seemed to think they had been basely de-
ceived.
AT Gene Ways place careful lookout
is kept A systsiz. of electric bells gives
warning OF the approach of unwelcome
visitors. Capt. Hanna walked into the
alley from James street. while Philbriek
entered the narrow alley between the
Bailey and Butler buildings. While
Hanna was in the saloon Phiibrick slipped
by the doorkeeper at the side entrance and
was. upstairs before warning could be
given. The bells were rung from below,
but the officers were in the room before
the bolts could be turned, and Gene Way
was caught at the table dealing faro. A
lively scramble followed aud Way objected
strenuousiy to giving up the faro box,
which is said to be valuable one, but the
officers had no discretion and carried off
all the tools. together with Mr.. Way, who
gave SO bail at police headquarters The
''tools" will probably be returned to the
gamblers in day or two. as they always
are, and when the breeze blows over the
games will be reopened with better look
outs, and probably on an even more profit
able basis FOR the houses.

logic and force. DIR. Market. the colored
orator, brought down the house when he
said: 1T would take the sewers FIVE years
