Hardin Couldn't Come.

Hon. p. Wat Hardin did not fill his
appointment in Lancaster Saturday,
as he was called to another part of the
state. The crowd that came in were
amply repaid, however, as Hon. Robt.
Harding, of Danville, was here to rep.
resent his kinsman. No man has more
friends and admirers in Garrard than
Bob Harding, and when it is known
that he is to speak, a crowd always
comes in to hear him. He was In fine
form Saturday and made one Of the
best speeches made during the cam
paign. He set forth the cause OF Hon.
P. Wat in manner which told, and
answered fully the charges made
against him. Hardin, has a big per-
sonal following in Garrard, and many
are for him because he's district man
and lives in an adjoining county.

The Advocate says Danville Friday
morning had narrow escape from an
other costly hemp house tire. Work
men at the O0gar Hemp House were
unloading some hemp from a freight
car. A match, 1t is believed, fell from
the incoming hemp and was stepped
upon by one Of the men. In q flash
the blaze started through the scatter.
ed strands on the floor and made its
way towards the big pile of bales.
WOrkmen within call sprang to the
spot and for few minutes there was a
most desperate fight to keep the fire
from spreading. Some of the men re-
ceived painful burns about the hands
and face while fighting the fire, as
burning bales had to be carried from
the warehouse and thrown into the
yard. The two fire companies were
soon on hand, but by that time the
fire was conquered. About i've thous-
and pounds Of hemp was destroyes
but the loss Is covered by insurance.
The building contains over $4,000
worth Of the fiber, and another i've
