Stranger Than Fiction.

A story which began over thirty year.
ago, and which dates back to the late
war, has just had Il strange s, qnel in two
states Kentucky aud Texas.
When the war opened DR.. W. III.
Richardson, of Kentucky, left Blandville,
in that State and went to Texas, where
he MARI, Il.
Soon after the wedding he LETT his
bride to join the confederate army In
attempting some speculation, he was re-
duced to the ranks and becoming dis
satisfied, left and went to Texas.
There, in the year 1867, he heard that
his wife was dead. But he remained in
Mexico until the present year. Then he
resolved to return to Kentucky.
lie arrived in his native county, and
while tracing up land claim, found it
necessary to write to his wife's relatives
in the Lone Star State.
This correspondence had a surprise in
store for him. Ills wife was found to be
living. She had waited twelve years,
and then had taken another husband.
The doctor was single and, rejoiced to
hear that his wife still lived, he wrote to
ask il she had lost her love for him.
She replied that she still loved him,
and that il he said the word she would
give her second husband his walking
papers.
The doctor was willing and, true TO
her word, the woman told husband No. .
that he must CO.
lie acted on her advice, and last week
Richardson went to Texas, and "was re-
united to the wife of his youth" after a
separation covering period of thirty-two
years.

Proctor Knott in Danville is cause fol
congratuation to the city and section.
II is the Governors ambition TO close
his long and honorable public career in
founding law department. in Centre
College, which will be second to none
in the country, and his profund knowl-
edge Of the law, together with the able
corps OF assistance he has gathered about
him, makes assurance doubly sure that
he will succeed even beyond his expec-
tation. No man has served his country
or State better than Gov. Knott and
none has won the right 10 the dignified

A Drunken Carousal

The "encampment" which in plain
terms means the drunken carousal of Il
lot of youngsters known as the State
Guard, broke up with killing at Padu-
cab last week. Private15odd from Bow
ling Green was one of the young men
who so often made night of it, and one
morning about o'clock as he was break
ing into lunch stand which boy had
been conducting near the camp, he was
shot and killed by the boy who was sleep
ing in his stand. The place had been
broken open several times before by the
gallant defenders of Kentucky's law and
order, and the coroner's verdict in
Dodd's case was that the boy who shot
him did so Gin protection OF his property
and defense OF his life," A party Of
these same tin soldiers passed through
this county on train one day last week
and amused themselves by firing their
guns out the car windows, terrorizing
the natives generally. This farce has
been maintained long enough in Ken
lucky. These alleged troops" whose
equipment and supplies cost the State so
much money, have been feasted out of
the public funds quite long enough.
Their services to the State are in no way
proportionate to the cost of them. In
ten years they have done absolutely no.
thing for the state save to kill few in
offensive citizens. The encampment
business ought to be discontinued

men. One man was probably fatally shot
and a number were injured.
Some time ago the company reduced
wages Is per cent, and the employees re-
fused It. The plant was shut down and a
few days ago the finishing department re-
sumed with non-union men. Last night
the strikers held meeting and resolved
to stand firm. After their adjournment
about fifty colored and white men started
for the mill to drive the non-union men
out.
With curses and yells the mob tore down
the fence and made q rush for the finish
ing department. About dozen men were
at work. The mob carried revolvers, clubs
and stones. They fired several volleys,
and at the first one workman whose
name is not known fell to the floor, shot
through the back He will probably die.
The work were then surrounded, aud
being outnumbered four to one fled pre-
Gipitately from the mill. They were driven
some distance, and then escaped. Several
were injured, but how seriously Ia not
known. After their flight the mob quickly
dispersed. The plant was at once shut
down and the furnaces banked No at
