Mr.. G. G. Ludwigs has lately been
making considerable improvement 10 the
looks of his iewelry store. He has put in
n number of wall cases, in which he will
be able to display to better advantage his
fine stock of jewelry. The improvements
have added very much tn the appearance
Of his store, and gives it the aspect OF a
first class city establishment.
A few days ago, while Mr.. Robert Horn,
of this city, was blowing a small piece of
ground, he discovered a nest OF young
rabbits, and took two of them to his home
and placed them with the pet cat that
stays at the house. The cat took them in
charge and is raising them with her kit
tens, and is apparently as much attached
to them as she is to her own offspring.
The INTELLIaENCER calls the attention
of the county court to the fact that the
Of every court held in the court
house is seriously impeded on account of
fact that there is no carpet, rugs,
linoleum or any other covering on the
floors of the various court rooms. 1t
would not cost to exceed 5000 to cover the
floors with the best of linoleum. As 1t
is the noise made by parties walking
around in the court rooms is at times so
that neither Judge mol jury can
hear what is going on. The noise is not
only disagreeable and a nuisance, but 1t
Is an impeachment to business. Lafayette
county can afford to put this linoleum on
court room floor. We believe a
every citizen of the county would bear
his part, which at an extravagant estimate
would not be one cent to each tax payer.
The Lafayette Presbytery, which will
meet here May II, will take up the sub
Iect of the improvement of Elizabeth Aull
Seminary, and expect to spend $780, 900 on
the Improvement of the college building
grounds. The college is one of the
pest in the state, and with a little money
,pent in remodeling b building and
AZ OaO N4A ~
made to take rank with the best educa-
.ional institutions in the west. The
building Is old and unprepossessing, and
las been somewhat held back from the
it deserves by the fact that too
little money has been spent toward
making it an attractive college in appear
.uce. We are glad that the P~resbytery is
yoing to take steps toward the improve
nent of the building, and our citizens
will doubtless help them literally in their
rood work.
About two weeks ago City Marshal
Price posted notices to the effect that all
would be required to clean up all
rash and rubbish on and about their
Monday the board of health
made q careful inspection of the city in
heir effort to find out how thoroughly
he order had been observed. Almost the
'ntire city was found to hav complied
With the notice. and the few who had not
we're notified to do so within forty hours,
,r the city would look after the same, and
he negligent parties be punished. These
have since complied with the
and at present Lexington pre-
ents as clean an appearance as any city
n the land. The work done by Mr.. Dick
'rson's corps of street cleaner has gone a
ong ways toward making Lexington the
city that she is, and gives our
treets a neat, clean appearance, without
much expense. It will be an easy matter
o keep the city In q clean and healthy
IL the citizens will comply with
he law requiring the throwing of slops,
aud other refuse into the alleys.
