IT. STERLING. KENTUCKY, TUESDAY. DECEMBER TO- 1895
Death Of Robert M. Barnes, Jr.

Robert M. Barnes, aged 46, died OF
the home of his sister, Mrs. A. HI.
Judy, in this city, on Wednesday af-
ternoon, December A, after an illness
of several weeks duration, of typhoid
fever. Mr.. Barnes was born and rails
ed in this city and since early man
hood has been engaged in business
here. Atthe time Of his death he was,
and for some ten or twelve years had
been, member of the firm of Barnes
Il Trumbo, Coal and Commission
Merchants. He was fine business
man and had accumulated very con-
siderable estate. Strictly honest in
all his dealings, despising littleness
and insincerity, he won and held to
the utmost, the confidence and esteem
the entire community. Modest, al
most to bashfulness, his was one of
those unobtrusive lives whoseinfuence
Is felt rather than seen in a communi-
ty. The good deeds he did were not
heralded abroad, but distress In any
shape never appealed to him and was
turned empty away.
Mr.. Barnes was never married, but
found in the home of his sister and the
company of her children the oppor-
tunity to lavish wealth of love and
tenderness that few outside the home
circle knew he gave expression to. He
was noted for his almost idolizing
love for the mother who bore him
and the sister who was so deeply at
tached to him, His father, Mr.. r.
M. Barnes, and brothers, T. K,
James, Joseph w. and Henry H., to-
gether with his sister, Mrs. A. II.
Judy, all of this city, have the sympa-
thy of the community.
The funeral took place at the Chris
tian church, of which he was men,

JUDGE SWANGO
NOT A DEFAULTER.
The Amount he is Said to be Short,
Made Good.

State Inspector and Examiner Gard
ner made a report to Governor Brown
Saturday, in which he charges the
Register of the Land Office, Judge G..
B. Swango, with a shortage of s952.72,
Mr.. Swango is in Eastern Kentucky
beyond the reach of telegraph and
telephone connection and cannot as
yet be communicated with. The
amonnt stated by Inspector Gardner
to be the shortage is denied by Judge
Swango. The Register claims the
shortage Is only an apparent one, and
his friends say he thought when he
left Frankfort for Eastern Kentucky,
where he now is, that further inspec-
tion of his books would so develop it.
The amount of the claimed shortage
was paid, however, under protest, and
Judge SwaDgo runs his risk of get
ting the matter Strengthened out and
recovering his money later en-. In
any case, let the Inspectors showing
be right or wrong, tie amount has
been made good and Judge Swango
stands acquitted of being defaulter,

Special Correspondence.

1t is with profound sorrow that we
chronicle the death Of Mrs. Eugene Han
ley, nee Holland, who died recently. De-
ceased had been married only five weeks
and had been unwelI from then until the
time of her death. She was member of
the Daughters of Erin and that society
turned out in large numbers to show
their respect for one of the most loved
members.
The ball of the Ladies' Auxiliary
turned out what it was expected it
would be, an unprecedented success.
It. seemed as though everyone wanted to
go, and they went. The old Armory was
brilliantly lighted and decorated, and
such notices as "God Save Ireland and
"Cead mile Failthe' with their gold let
terings and green backgrounds, acted as
an inspiration TO the gay crowd of
Irish lads and lassies as they tripped the
light fantastic "till the early hours Of
morn" The ladies may rest assured
that everyone will look forward to their
second annual with pleasure.
Quite number of the Ancient Order"
went to Hancock the other Sunday to
witness the initiation of forty new mem
bers. This was the largest number ever
initiated at one time by any division in
the state of Michigan, and this makes
Hancock first in point of membership,
also, in the state. Among those initiat-
ed was Fr. Barth, the assistant priest,
at Hancock. They seem to be made OF
the right material in that town and we
believe if there were only a little of the
same at Calumet, the membership could
be considerably increased.
