Sanitary improvements Made and the
Condition Now E'irst-elass.
A few weeks ago the city board Of
health found the Polk school in very bad
sanitary condition. Various improve
ments we're shown to be necessary. These
changes have been made. City Physician
j. B. Hibben today makes the following
statement, which is confirmed by DR.. L.
H. Mum. also of the city board, who
made tue inspection with him:
The Polk street school building is
now under fumigation and will Be for
thlrty-six hours, school having been
closed today "wednesday for the pur-
pose, SO there will he no danger Of the
disease being communicated. The chill
dren can then safely return to school, as
lar az the sanitary condition of the
building itself is concerned
"A thorough and careful examination
has been made Of the sanitary condition
Of this school, and the sanitary condition
is now perfect. The water closets are
flushed each day with twenty-fOur bar
rels Of water. The grounds and interior
Of the building are clean and neat The
recent cases Of diphtheria are sporadic
cases, and were not wholly due to any
unhealthy condition of the school house
or grounds.
There are now not exceeding two, and
possibly only one, case of diphtheria in
the city-as one of the alleged cases may
prove to be something else. la only one
of these cases was the subject a pupil of
the schools"

She suggested that the ladies try to get
as many men as possible Interested IN

A Sensational Suit.

N is settled that there will be a salt
brought in the circuit court to remove
the Columbia Finance & Trnst Co.,
trustees of the New Farmers Bank,
and that the very best legal talent of
the State will be employed. 1t will
be remembered that the aforesaid
bank closed its doors the 9th day of
July 1898, and that the bank held
paper at that time amounting to more
than 100000 that the Columbia has
had its interests in possession about
one year and that the depositors
whose credits amounted 10 the sise of
100000 have received only 90 per
cent, about 100000 or 10 per cent of
the amount in the trustees hand. The
stockholders, many of them and the
depositOrs are not at all satisfied with
their hardness and the manner in
which they have been making settle
ments and hence the suit. The Trust
Co. will now be forced to disclose their
hands, report the sales, how and to
whom made and how every account
onthe books has been managed. There
will be a general shaking up and
somebody it is believed will have
to make showing.

MT. STERLING, KENTUCKY TUESDAY OCTOBER 2 1894
Murder

Is the wilful and malicious taking
of human life. The crime, according
TO the Bible, should always be pun.
ished with death. But in our day
especially in our country, it brings
with it only a good deal of noteriety
and not death. But we may rest as
sured of this, that God will one day
visit on the people of this country a
fearful retribution for the indulgence
which they show to this crime. Take
the life of him who wifully and with
malice takes the life of his fellowman
do this surely, do it in all cases, and
murder will cease. Fail to do this
and you breed mobs for the world is
apt to feel that murderer hung by a
mob is less evil than murderer
turned loose by corrupt court of
law, to murder again at will.
That is morbid and most perni-
cious sentiment which forgets what is
due to God, to society and to the MUIR
dered, through sickly sentiment for
the murderer. 1t is devoid of justice !;
nor is it any proper expression of
mercy.
The frequency with which this
crime is committed in this country is
positively alarming. Moreover, if
the person committing it stand high,
and has plenty of money, there is, as
every one knows, literally no punish
ment for him. He is merely annoyed
with the form of a trial-that is all.
The shocking extent to which the
crime prevails loudly calls for reme-
dy; and for murder there is but one
remedy. Whenever every murderer
atones for his deed by the certain loss
of his own life, murders will well
nigh case, not before. The pulpit
and press should ring with
efforts to create public sentiment
that will be satisfied with nothing
short of the adequate punishment of
the crime. "Whoso sheddeth mans
blood, by man shall his blood be
shed"-Gen. 8: 6. This is Gods own
decree against the murderer, a decree
enacted for the whole human race,
and which has never been repealed,
revoked or set aside. Tie State or
court, therefore, that is daring enough
to presume to disregard it, is false
alike to God and to society. No de-
generate sentiment should be allowed |
to supplant the law. On the contra
ry, nothing but the sturdy execution |
Of it is just to the murderer or to So
society. w.

Bank Changes.

AS has been heretofore ammo. need.
Judge Howard r. French some time
since resigned the position of Cashier
of the Mt. Sterling National Bank Ito
be succeeded by Mr.. Pierce Winm.
and accepted like position with the
Exchange Bank of Kentucky, of this
city. His term of service in the Mt
Sterling National expired with the
close of business Saturday afternoon.
and began with the Exchange at the
opening of business Yesterday morn
ing. For some seventeen years judge
French filled the post of Cashier at
the Mt. Sterling National Bank TO the
entire satisfaction of directors and
stockholders. His record is a clean
one, and when the time arrived 70
sever his relations with the bank, he
could leave with the very kindiest
feelings existing between himself and
those with whom he had SO long been
associated. Judge French has in his
long term of service made many dol
lars for the stockholders of the bank,
and never for one hour did he cease to
enjoy the full confidence and un-
bounded respect of everyone. All
this he brings to his new love, the Ex-
change.
The gentleman who succeeds Judge
French would under all ordinary cir
cumstances have had his hands full, to
render to the bank and it's customers
the same service that they have been
wont to receive. But trying as the
position would ordinarily be, Mr..
Pierce Winn is fully equal to it. He
has worked himself up step by step as
Messenger, Clerk, Teller, Assistant
Cashier, till when the Bank wanted a
reliable man TO fill the |
Cashiers place the Directory did not
have far to look.
Mr.. John G. Winn, the President of
the Mt. Sterling National, has himself
won honors in the record of faithful
service to the Exchange Bank. He
took the place of Cashier of the Bank

paper was worth less than 80 cents, he

The Nave Gymnasium.

There has been fitted up in the
rooms over Samuels & Kings store
at considerable expense and i'm ele.
giant style, an exercise hall and bath
rooms. We had the pleasure of look
ing through the several rooms, and
found things admirably arr anged.
Miss Carrie Chiles has a class of AZ
young ladies of the city, who are TAX
ing lessons in physical culture and
who are most enthusiastic in praise
of the way in which Miss Chiles is
managing the enterprise. The fact is
Miss Carrie, who is an enthusiast in
this line, and has thoroughly fitted
herself for her work, and is awaken
ing the same interest in it among the
pupils that she enjoys. We know of
nothing that has been done in our
midst that promises to be Of more
material benefit to our young ladies
than the enterprise to which we are
calling attention. We hope every
young woman in Mt. Sterling will
take advantage of the opportunity
to develop herself physically. 1t is
charged that the women of America
are deteriorating, physically, tor want
of proper exercise. If this is true,it be-
comes only the more important that
our young women should take every
advantage to develop their bodies. A
healthy mind cannot dwell in an I'M
healthy tenement.
AT the Nave Gymnasium ladies
will find all the apparatus needed, to-
gether with teacher, who, in a most
intelligent manner, will direct its use.
One feature, and to our thinking the
very best about the conduct of this
culture school, is that Miss
Chiles so manages that the exercise
taken loses all idea of work and |
makes apparent only the sense of !
excitement She has the |
happy faculty of so combining pleasur-
able enjoyment with bodily exercise,
that the time spent in the classroom is
