battle ought neither to be long nor severe.

Colorado Springs is said to be the
quietest town in the country. No
church bells are rung there, and no
whistles are blown. A local paper
admits that dogs bark at night in
Colorado Springs, as they do every
where else, but it adds that "when
they run about they make no noise
with their feet in the sandy soil"

was discovered that the army was with

had run out into the harbor near where
the collier Merrimac lay sunk. and her
actions looked suspicious to Admiral
Sampson. He concluded that Admiral
Ceryera had sent out the Mercedes to
attempt to blow up the Merrimac, and
thus reopen the channel. The order to
open fire was then given and the heavy
guns of the fleet poured in a rain Of shell,
which made it impossible for any of the
Spaniards to approach the MerrimaC.
At the same time the fleet was moving
nearer to the harbor Several shells
struck the Mercedes. one of them burst

damage was tremendous. So desperate
did her situation become that Admiral
Cervera, who watched the fire from his

some Criminal Business Heard This
Morning.
Judge Hoagland presided over special
session OF Court this morning, and some
crimina! business was disposed of,
Constantine Zedardie and Thomas
Hoffman were brought from iail and
pleaded not guilty to charge of keeping
disorderly house. These are the two
men who ran the house in Deerfield
Township, where the recent gang of fell
lows got drunk and were arrested and
fined in the Mayors Office.
The case of Henry Anderson. cbarond
with assaulting Emma Mink. was taken
up and disposed of. Mary told her own
story, and it was supported by her daupb
ter. Mary said Anderson boarded with
her at her home in Hopewell township.
The two fell out and quarrelled, and An
derson threatened to shoot her with a re-
volver, and beat her with beer bottle.
The defense of Anderson was that the
story of Emma Mink was no such thing
he did not attempt or threaten to assault
her, although she tried to cut him with
knife. He said he got to visiting her
house because he was asked to come to
see Mrs. Mink's daughter, by Mrs. Mink.
Anderson also said that Mrs. Mink "had
two living husbands"
The disorderly house case will follow
this. There are large number of wit
nesses in the case.

THE CHECK FORGED.

A stranger Purchased Suit of Furniture,
Paid for 1t With a Check and Got
$500 in Change.
A smooth tongue stranger worked a
forged check on the firm of Garrison &
johnson Friday, but fortunably the
loss to the house is but s. in cash, The
fellow came ia Friday efternoon and
Mr.. johnson showed him a line of fur
nlture. The customer was looking for a
suit of bedroom furniture,
Finally he selected $40 suit. He then
told Mr.. Johnson that he worked for
John Duffield, the Cedarville liveryman,
he wanted the furniture sent down to the
Cedarville stable, and he said he would
be there and help him unload it at his
house, which was nearby.
The man then rendered Mr.. johnson a
check for S23. 1t was check on a bank
in Pennsylvania, and was made out to
John 9. Duffield." Upon the back of
the check was endorsed the name John
c. Duffield."
Mr.. johnson received the check and
gave the stranger 50 in cash or change.
He disappeared, and has not since been
seen.
Mr.. johnson soon learned that the en-
dorsement of John C. Dufield' was a
forgery and realized that he was victim
to the extent of So.
1t was afterward learned that the
stranger went into the blacksmith shop
of AL. Cole, and asked him if Jack Duff
field, of Cedarville, was still living.
Evidently the fellow knew something of
Duffield and he cid not want to make
break with check if Duffield was not
still living.
Mr.. johnson would know the man if he
should see him again.

A Social FallaCy.

(By Lady Cook, nee Tennessee c. Clahin-1
There are many social fallacies
which have for ages continued to live
vigorously, and which die hard and
slowly. Among them is that most
pernicious one that trade is undigni-
fed and labour a reproach. No mat
ter what moralists and philosophers
have said as to the worth Of work
and the value of commerce, no mat
ter what has been written by the
poets or preached by the divines,
fashionable society shut its ears and
it's understanding to all, and decreed
that, whatever their personal charac-
ter or abilities, those who engaged in
trade or labour should be excluded
from its circles.
This opprobrious distinction be-
tween idleness and usefulness to the
prejudice of the latter, or between
one kind of usefulness and another,
is not an indigenous sentiment, but
was continental, and imported hith-
er. 1t had it's rise in an inflated mil
itary pride. Our practical forefathers
honoured trade, and by its encour-
agement prepared the way for Eng
lands greatness. And they regarded
all classes of idlers, whether aristo-
Gratis or "sturdy vagabonds," with
keen severity. Indeed, no one can
read Blackstone's Commentaries on
the laws of England without coming
to the conclusion that not our wealth,
population, and power alone, but our
liberties also, had their origin in
trade. Trade and freedom marched
hand in hand, acted and reacted up
on each other, and built up the
worlds greatest Empire.
The wisest monarchs Of England,
including Alfred and Elizabeth, have
promoted the extension of trade by
their example as well as by their
laws. Elizabeth had share in many
speculations. During the Stuart and
Tudor periods merchants were hon.
CURED guests at court. If We except
the purely feudal period, 1t was moi
until the commencement of the
Owingsville outlook. [volume] (Owingsville, Ky.) 1879-192?, 1898-06-02

his home, on the headwaters Of Salt
Well Branch, at 6 o'clock Saturday
morning, May 2Sth. The interment
took place Sunday at the Trsadway

Mt Sterling.
Deceased was aged 20 years. He
was one of the few persons in this
section of pure French extraction.
He was a good, substantial farmer
citizen and his death is deeply la
mented in his neighborhood and
elsewhere as that of a worthy and
useful man. His sons John and

Extravaganza, gambling racing,
and betting, are the means by which
old families are brought low. Idle
ness and profligacy extinguish them.
1t is just, then, that those who have
risen by their industry, ability, and
moral superiority, should take their
places In the councils and honeurs Of
the country.

re-creates, and is therefore God-like.

are noble callings provided they be
well and honestly followed.
When King Prempeh of Coomassie
was told by the War Correspondents
of the DAILY Telegraph" that he was
neither a warrior nor a carrier, the
captive monarch insisted that in that
case he must be great fetish maker,
and implored the correspondents to
write him out one. Eventually he
wrote as much as he could remember
of the lines beginning Mary had a
little lamb" and the King wears the
words around his neck as apotent pre-
yentive against evil. Those amongst
us who neither fight nor work have
succeeded well as makers of fetish,
manufacturers of social fallacies to
be worn on the hearts of the people.
One of these is that it is ordained by
Providence that some should work
and others not, and that the many
must work for the few. We answer,

should work, and work for each 9TH
