LANCASTER.


Mrs. Eliza Craver. formerly Miss
Elkin, now ot Madison, Mo-, is here
with relatives.
The reduction of the price Of the IN-
TERROR JOURNAL to 81 per year u re-
garded a. great sacrifice, since the
subscribers are glad to get IL at e..
The statement In the Times that
Goebel will carry Garrard county, Is
not believed here, especially II the
farmers come out, In which event 1t is
believed that Hardin or Stone will get
the instruction
uThere IL strong feeling here to
make opposition to trusts and protec-
tive tarlff.the principal political issues
In the coming campaign, and this
should be done as they are the pee pies
greatest enemies.
Rumor has II that Jack Chinn would
be Goebel's adjutant general aud that
Capt I. A. Elkin wants TO hold the
same office under Stone, II he is elect
ed. How far these reports will con-
tribute 10 the election Of either re-
mains to be seen. Hardin stock will
90 up as he has made no promises.
People are forgetiul of the fact that
the human system is only a piece OF
machinery. delicate In construction
aud that sleep and rest are necessary
70 prolong life. Some live two days 10
one and become old people at an early
age. Late hours at night destroy VII
tally and the person who sleeps eight
hours will live much longer than the
one who sleeps four hours. 1t Is alto
gcther proper TO retire not later than
10 o'clock aud TO arise at six.
Mr. aud Mrs. Randolph Harris. o'
your county. were here Thursday Rev
II. y. Faulconer Is at home after very
successful evangelistic tour. Lieut.. J
NJ. Farra was complimented by a lady
after rendering a solo at the Christian
church, the LADY remarkiug that che
wanted him To sing at her funeral. TIL,
lieutenant In recognizing the conpli
ment, said: Thank you madam, | will
be pleased TO do 30 at any time"
The meetings closed At the Christian
church today, Thursday, after doing
much good. Ed. Lloyd tells the peo
Pile plainly OF their sins and some
grumble about II, but they smile agair
when something is said about their
neighbors. His style is aggressive
somewhat like that OF Sam Jones
while that OF Ed. T.. l.. Powell wa.
more persuasive, holding up the God
OF love and mercy In a style very much
similar TO that OF Rev. George o.
Barnes.
Capt Stone had good audience on
Monday and he made good impress
sion. Senator Farris introduced him
Ia few well chosen remarks, referring
TO bic past life In very touching man
ner and paying him high and q de-
serving tribute, Mr.. Stone proved To
be sound on national and State issues
and an able advocate OF the true prin-
ciples OF democracy. He showed his
man hood In decliuing To make any un-
kind reference to Judge Hargis, who
was wounded IN the same engagement
In which he lost limb, although the
Judge made an unwarranted thrust at
him. The pathetic mention Of his suf-
fering after his wounds aud the minis
trations of the lady who subsequently
became his wife, called forth tears from
those who were not accustomed to
weeping. The frequent applause show
ed that he has many friends here.
A large crowd came To town Tuesday
TO take part in the decoration day cere-
monies. The unfurling OF flags, the
distribution of flowers on the graves OF
the departed and the outpouring OF pa
thetic eloquence evinced the patriotism
OF our people aud the love for their fal
len heroes. Each flower was offered AS
word, token or a whisper Of remem'
brauce OF brilliant achievements. The
rowd gathered in the courthouse al
PIP. NJ. The Lancaster band dispensed
appropriate music and Hon. Letcher
Owsley delivered an address full of pa
triotism, replete with history and
events which cause the dead To live in
our memory, the blue and the gray
alike, receiving appropriate mention.
The band then led long line OF FEEDER
al and Confederate veterans to the
cemetery, where flowers were distrib.
uted.
