Rich State.

"There are two counties in WASH
ingtOn," says Senator Wilson, of that
State, "each nearly as large rs the
State of Massachusetts, and one of
them is as great gold field as South
Africa. The camp of the Republic
mine will be city of 10000 inhab-
itants in year and half. In this
wonderful county there are noun
tains full of gold, and back of the
mountains are magnificent agricul-
tural lands. Washington is the place
for making money now"

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

By local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness Is caused by an
infiamed condition of the mucou.
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have a
rumbling sound orimperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed, deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
fiamation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition OF the mucous sur
face.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
culars, free.

Bad Slide.

Owing To the heavy rains, high
water and sudden decline, there was
a bad land slide on the Glen's Creek
pike, lust week, just this side the
bridge over Yateman's branch, at
the foot Of the Walcutt hill. Near
an acre of ground, with the large
sycamore trees on it, were carried
out into the river. 1t came very
near reaching to the turnpike fill,
and renders it precarious in case of a
future rise.

Petitions for Capitol Building ApprOpri-
alton.

These petitions are now being re-
turned to Mrs. Jennie G. Morton,
Secretary at large of the "Capital AS
sociation," filled with the names of
the leading influential women of the
counties in Kentucky to which they
have been sent.
When these petitions are all re-
turned, the banner county will be
announced. The names of these
patriotic women of the State are to
be inscribed on panels of our native
woods and these panels will be hung
in the Kentucky Historical Rooms,
when the Capital appropriation is
secured as memorials of them, and
their potent influence with their
Representative in their respective
counties and towns, to secure a Cap
itol creditable alike to the wealth Of
the State and the selfrespect of the
people.
Miss Halle HerndOn, of Lexing-
ton, KY, has offered to prepare and
inscribe the panels. Her studies in
the famous art schools of Europe,
and her visits to the renowned gal
Ieries of Berlin, Rome, Munich and
Paris has given her the rarest Oppor-
tunities for observing similar panels
of wood and marble, and it goes
without saying that her decoration
and inscription Of names on the pam
els of Kentucky woods will be in
themselves gems of art.

The horse that Mr.. Howard John

fright at wagon loaded with
empty barrels on Wednesday morn
ing, and dashed across the street in
front of Mr.. Johnson's store, on
st. Clair street, near the bridge |;
jumped the stone retaining wall on

wheels of the wagon up on the wall,
when the harness broke; he then
fell on his head on pile of rocks in
the road leading to the custom-house
wharf; turned somersault jumped
up and walked OF, apparently
unhurt.

Jaggard in district court yesterday on
an order to show cause why the CHS
tody of the child. Freddy should not

ant. After listening to the arguments
the court ordered that the child be turn
ed over to the father within twenty

ing the complaint in the divorce case

purpose Mrs, Mary Briggs, James P.

to the occurrences at the seizure of the
child. Afterwards this evidence was
stricken out, and Judge. Jaggard issued
an order that the child be turned over to

LONDON, June S.-The flags on Days

count of the death of Augustin Daily, and
among the large colony of American
actors and actresses here his demise is

MIC POITMESER AS A GEAR
TRIED TO RULE THE ROARD on
PUBLIC WORKS BY HIM.
SELF ALREADY

MIR. MabOn Protests Against the
UsurpatiOn by the Chair of the
Small PrerOgatives of the Mem
bers ON the Floor.
The board of public works came to an
other deadlock yesterday afternoon over
the matter of a sewer on Armstrong
street from Seventh to View. Messrs.
Mabon and Sandell were in favor of
making a favorable report on the i'm
provement, but President Pottgieser and
Mr.. Ames opposed such action
Mr.. Mabon moved a favorable report be
sent. to the council and Mr.. Sandell
seconded the motion. Mr. Ames moved
as an amendment that the matter be laid
over: The amendment of Mr. Ames was
seconded by President Pottgieser.
Mr.. Mabon raised the point that the
president of the board had no right to
second a motion while presiding, and that
the only way he could get in the game so
far as seconding motions was to call one
of the other members to the chair.
President Pottgieser did not take kind
ly to the point raised and ruled with
some feeling that he would and could
not be bluffed. Mr. Mabon, however.
stuck to it that the president had no au-
thority to second motions while in the
chair.
President Pottgieser, however said there
was another way of reaching the same
result and he accordingly put the motion
of Mr.. Mabon and he and Mr.. Ames voted
against it and Sandell and Mabon for it.
The vote was tie and the matter was
laid aside.
Fifteen minutes later, however, Presi-
dent Pottgieser turned down his fellow
conspirator on the board by voting with
Messrs. Mabon and Sandell on a report
to the council for the paving of Wacouta
street from the union depot grounds to
Seventh street.
For the past eighteen months the board
of public works has had the matter of
paving Wacouta street before 1t. but
owing to the objections of some of the
property owners along the street moth
ing has been done except to hear ob:ec-
tons and discuss the kind of pavement
which should be put down
The estimate of the city engineer based
on what the property owners or a por-
ton of them wanted was that it would
cost about $50 per front foot to pave the
street with asphalt from the union depot
grounds to Fifth street, and about S. 70
to pave the balance of the street to Sew
enth with granite.
The report recommended yesterday by
vote of to 1. Mr.. Ames opposing, pro
vides for the paving with sandstone of
the street from the union depot to Sew.
enth street. The estimate of the city en-
g!neer is that 1t will cost the property
owners S5.25 per front foot
The city engineer was directed to pre-
pare plan and estimate for the paving
of Robert street between Seventh and
Eighth streets with brick. The order
sent from the council named asphalt but
the owners along the street have de-
cided that brick would be preferable
The board recommended a favorable re-
port for a sewer on Reaney and Fau-
quier streets to connect with the P.ialen
creek sewer. The Improvement will cost
the property owners SO cents per front
foot.
