A WOMAN was fined $15 in Kansas
City one day last week for whipping
her husband. If the husband had
been the aggressor he would probably
have been fined $50 or S25. The new
woman" is surely having her innings
and unless the ''new man quickly
breaks the shackles Of despotism and
oppression, which now seems destined
to completely encircle him, he won't
be in it, even a little bit.

The sessions of the County Teachers
Association, held atsnight, were well
attended by the teachers!and the pub
lie and much interest was aroused.
The district meetings are looked for
ward to with .anticipations of profit
and pleasure. The following resolu-
tons were reported and unanimously
adopted:
RESOLVED, 1st.-That we are thank
full to Almighty God for his blessings
during the past week, and will by his
aid in the future discharge our duty as
conscientious teachers.
End. That Menefce County may
justly pride herself in the possession of
a Common School Superintendent, in
the person of j. Ii. Wells, who by his
untiring energy in the discharge of
his official duties and faithfullness in
every respect, has proven himself a
friend to the cause of education.
3D. That we as teachers approve of
the methods of instruction given by
our instructor Prof. L. Il. Hovermale,
and approve OF the action of the Super
intendent in employing an instructor
of our county.
4th. We hereby favor compulsory
educational school law and insist upon
every teacher using his utmost influ-
ence to have the law tending in that
direction enforced.
9th. That we as teachers condemn
the practice of undertaking to obtain
schools. We believe it tends to lower
the standard of the profession.
9th. That to S. w. Needham, our
official Secretary, we tender our
thanks for his services during the
week.
7th. That to the citizens of French
burg and vicinity we are thankful for
their hospitality and kindness during
our stay in their midst.

THIRD DAY.

Thursday, the third day of the fair,

history, 1880 tickets having been sold.
There were many people in town who
did not attend. Some stayed at home,
many were on the street near the en-
trance, and many more were in the

crowd. Some one has said {" It's dis
lance lends enchantment to the view"
So it may have been in this case. If
the Fair Association desire to break
up this free sight crowd without CIV
ing offense they can either present
to each one of the hill-siders a
c mplimentary season ticket, or
change the location of the fair ground,
or dig away the mountain. A hint to
the wise is sufficient.
The last plan, if adopted has COM
mondable features employment could
b, given to thousands OF the unem-
ployed at good wages, the surplus
r venue of the fair company to be
used in paying for the work ; the loose
dirt could be used as filling for the
o.awfish holes part of the rock could
be used in building that much-talked-
of and long needed pike from Mt. Ster-
ling to the best and most-know town
in eastern Kentucky.
Mr.. Langley, candidate for Congress,
arrived, aud after the fair was over
he and Mr.. Fitzpatrick led the enthus-
iastic crowd to the grove for speaking.
Mr.. F. explained their misunderstand-
NJ in regard to the day of their meet
ing here. Then Mr.. f. spoke and was
followed by Mr.. L. Both speakers
favorably impressed the hearers. The
best of feeling prevailed.
