letter from his agent says that his

this will more than likely bc the last
year that be will appear before the
public and doubtless the last time he
will ever be seen here, our people will
embrace it to give him an ovation. He
is the last general of his rank who
fought for the Lost Cause and his init
mate relations with Gen. Lee and the
other leaders in that terrible conflict
make him most peculiarly interesting
character. His noted lecture. The
First Days OF the Confederacy, is fit
companion OF The Last Days" and is
said to be even more interesting and

II. L. Hillenmeyer, the Lexington
uurseryman. writes; The opinion is
confidently ventured that the coming
year will be cornucopian in the largest
fruits and Disappointing in the smaller
ones. Present weather conditions do
not favor, and the fruit crop of 1894
was total loss by reason of the severe
frosts beginning on March 25th after
three weeks of charming weather, just
as this. Should present weather long
continue many elements of danger are
added, affecting fruits both large and
small. In the spring of 1869 peach
trees were in full bloom about March
10Th and the crop that year was excep-
tionally fine, but an early spring is
rarely advantageous to the fruit crop
of Kentucky.

count. The butcher paid it TO the
farmer for a calf, and the farmer paid
it 10 the merchant. who in turn paid it
TO the washerwoman, and she owing
the banker note of so, went To the
banker and paid the note. The bank
er recognized the bill as the one he
had found and which mp to that time
had paid $50 worth of debts. On a care
tul examination he found the bin was a
counterfeit, OF course the problem
is, who lost in the transaction?
