Mormoni.m Propagated In Bourbon.

Two Mormon "elders," named Rob-
insOn and W sIsh, are making canvass
of this section OF Kentucky, trying to
inCuIcate their damnable heresies into
the minds of the unsusI Getting ana
credU ons of the more ignorant Glasses
of white pel1ors. Their oily tongues
enable them to worm their way into
the homes of the humber citizens, and
gain the ears of the women, and from
such do they recruit the church of the
Latter Day Saints" The Mormons
secretly advocate the doctrine of polyg-
amy AS sacred duty, and for such
have been expelled from various states.
The movements of the above named
"elders" are growing quite bold. They
have but recently, to quote the Paris
Reporter. "been holding services in the
public school-hJuse at North Middle
town." TIE Reporter advocates asking
for the resignation of the school trustees
at that ! lJInt.
The e.ders have recently visited
Miranda, in Nicholas county, and cor
spondcnt says of them. Their whOle
idea seems to be to first create doubt
as 10 tue authenticity of the scriptures
theA dissatisfaction and dIssensions in
the church organizations when the. way
will be clear for gaining converts to
their haliaf T lnOEz unon them y : VIC. .v,sa

Yesterday to have been 1O4 and ~ de-
grees. with light to gentle northerly and
southerly winds and clear weather pre-
vailing. with a few clouds in the air
during the greater part of the day.
The highest and lowest temperatures

degrees. and one year ago to-day 9S
and 90 degrees.
The average temperature was SS de-
grees and the normal "a degrees, show
ing yesterday to have been IA degrees
warmer than usual for the 18th day of
July.
There was more complaint about the
hot weather yesterday than on sun
day, which was no doubt due to the
rise of the wet thermometer, and cor
responding increase in the percentage
of moisture in the air, 1t was at p.
m. yesterday 33 per cent, as against
but 20 per cent on Sunday.
On Saturday the wet thermometer at
) D. m. was &c degrees, and 81 de-
grees cooler than the dry thermometer
at that hour The wet thermometer
on Sunday was 70 degrees, and 81 de-
grees cooler than the dry thermometer
at that hour.
Yesterday the wet thermometer was
as high as rs at 3 p. M, and was but
q degrees cooler than the dry ther-
mometer at the same hour.
There being a greater percentage of
moisture in the air yesterday than
there has been since the 9th of the
month, caused people to feel the op-
pressiveness from the heat more Sc
verely than for some days past.

DESPONDENT PRISONER,
George Wall Attempts Suicide in

There came near being a case for the
Coroner yesterday in the County Jail
A prisoner named George Wall, who
was sentenced on June 25th for petit
larceny, attempted to hang himself in
his cell early in the morning, and came
very near doing so.
He took a couple of towels, fastened
them to the ceiling, and stood on a
bucket while he tied them about his
neck. When he kicked the bucket away
he awoke his cellmate, who called the
Jailer, and Wall was cut down before
he had been choked to death.
Wall is young man who has rela-
tives in good standing, and he had be-
come Respondent. He is also a victim
of the opium habit, and being deprived
of the drug has also had a depressing
effect on him.

COAL TESTS.
Mayor Hubbard Says They Should
| be Made by an Expert.

The following message from Mayor
Hubbard was read at last nights ses-
sion of the City Trustees:
To the Honorable Board of Trustees: :
In making an evaporative test of coal
for the Water Works | would suggest
that the test be made under the direc-
tiCns of an expert. You 10 doubt un
derstand that these tests to be of val
ue must be very accurate, and any one
making the tests can by a slight error
favor one kind of coal in preference to
others. The Chief Engineer of the
Water Works would undoubtedly be
honest in making the test, but he might
not be accurate, and parties bidding
hereafter would not be satisfied. l be-
lieve a week or ten days running test
would be far more satisfactory.
To obviate any suspicion of unfair
tests I believe it would be just to the
citizens and the employees of the Water
Works plant that some competent eX-
pert be employed who has no one to
favor, and who would not be partial
to any kind of coal. The services OF
an expert can be secured for from Sou
TO 500 to make these tests. The city
Will save considerable money by Sc
lecting the right kind of coal, and there
would be great satisfaction in knowing
that the selection was fair and hon
est.
I believe the Chief Engineer of the
Water Works would be glad to have
this test made by some person not con-
nected with the department. Respect
fully submitted,
c. H. HUBBARD, Mayor.
Davis objected to any test by ex-
perts. as the competitors would watch
each others tests closely enough to
insure fairness. The other members
agreed with Davis
