BRYAN's Ky. CRowDs.-The AS
ISOLATED Press put the Lexington
crowd to see Bryan at 1900. 9th
|ers who have had experience in
sizing up crowds put it at that or
Jess. State Popocratic Chairman
Johnston, of Lexington, put it at
$4,000. Other enthusiastic Bryan
lites put it at $4,000 to something
short of a million. 1t is conceded
by all that the crowd was immense
and calculated to flatter its object.
Pickpockets reaped n rich har-
vest. Probably thousands were
robbed. James Smith, of this
town, lost 81; Squire James Maze,
of Salt Lick, lost $25, some notes
and checks; John b. Donaldson, of
White Oak, started with SIS, spent
part for his ticket, borrowed $50
on the way to pay a bill in Mt.
,Sterling as he came back, and lost
rail-, about $22; John Webb, Of
Bethel, lost $11; Dave Hendrix, of
Odessa, lost his pocket change;
Simpson Newman, Of G-ange Citv
contributed his roll. In -
large part Of =" neorio rom all
sections complain n ips'nS 'Hsoaey
or other vsiuahles. When a pock-
ct was pickle of e. pocket book the
book was instan-ly emptied and
cast aside, to prevent it's being
found on the thiefs person. When
the money was mixed with other
money it couldn't be identified.
Much of the robbing was done on
the trains. When Dave Hendrix
discovered his loss on the train the
conductor soon after came with a
lantern and found Dawes empty
pocket book in the coal box or
| bucket.

OLYMPIA IRON MINES EXHAUSTED.
Some considerable time before
the erection Of Kentucky into a
State Of the American Union was
built the Bourbon, or Slate Creek,
iron furnace, the first constructed
west Of the Allegheny mountains.
This furnace was supplied with ore
from the mines at Olympia, a
block house being built on the mine
of that name to protect the labor
ers against the rowing bands of
hostile Indians that then infested
this country. The working of this
mine and Slate furnace. south of
town, gave the first impulse to the
settlement of Bath county, the first
immigrants coming to the furnace
or its vicinity for employment or
for the sake of protection against
the savages. The ore was of a high
grade, and the metal made at the
furnace was a superior quality of
charcoal iron. The furnace was
operated many years by the ances-
tors of the Conner, Owings and
Ewing families, but was closed
down fifty eight years ago on &C.
count of the competition of iron
makers in localities more accessi-
