A Narrow Escape,

Saturday afternoon while Mrs. II.
V. Shannon was out driving, having
with her in the buggy Mrs. G.. G..
Ausherman and baby, the horse be-
came frightened and ran away. The
trouble began in front of the Moore
house home on north Buckeye street
where the horse began kicking with
out any apparent provocation, and
then turned and ran west along the
street that follows Coon Creek for
several blocks. The proprietor Of the
little grocery store on Jefferson
avenue saw the horse and, running
out of his store, headed the brute off,
as he was on the point of dashing
across the ditch. The horse swerved
the other way and the buggy rolled
completely over, all three of the &C.
cupants being thrown out. Mrs.
shannon received severe blow on
the head and both ladies are etiff and
sore from the severe fall. 1t Is almost
miraculous that all were not killed
outright, but fortunately none OF
them were seriously injured. The
baby escaped with a few slight
bruises and in few days all of them
will be completely recovered.

still farther from being welcome TO the
average man. There are other kinds,
however, the most suitable being those
OF heavy water color paper or thin
cardboard, which are cut out In the
shape OF q segment OF a circle and
then joined by little clamps which
come for the purpose and mounted
on little gilt framework. The new
idea with regard to them is enc which
wnl render them individual and pc
cullarly appropriate to the person for
whom they are meant. II consists la
ornamenting them with unmounted
photographs, mounted in such a way
that the light Of the lamp viii shine
through them. Several large ones or
many small ones may thus be used,
spaces for them being neatly cut in the
shade, so that the material OF tha
shade does not pass beneath them. For
example, II the pictures are 10 be ar
ranged in medalllons they are Vuthn a

mounted on the inside OF the shade,
facing outward. In these days OF anna
teur photographs the suggestive posi-
bllities are innumerable. Familiar
scenes, recalling pleasant associations,
may be grouped together, the remain
der Of the shade being covered with
some harmonious painted decoration.
AS for personal photographs, there
could hardly be more effectual way
of keeping ones face in the sight OF
ones friend.

A SPLIT in KENTUCKY.
The Antt-Goehel Democrats Decide to
Hold - Convention 20 Name
New Ticket.

Lexington. KY, Aug. IA political
revolt in Kentucky was inaugurated
here Wednesday. The anti-Goebel con-
ference here for the purpose of calling
state convention and nominating an
other democratic state ticket, or part
of one, was in some respects perhaps
the most remarkable political gather
ing ever held in Kentucky.
The gathering was larger than ex-
pected. There were 100 men by actual
count in the auditorium. Thirty coun-
ties were represented. A preliminary
meeting was held at nine a. m. TO ar
range for the conference, which was
called at 1880 p. IN. w. Ii. Kinsolying
called the meeting to order and made
strong speech. DIR. j. M. Poyntz, OF
Richmond, was made permanent chair
man; W. III. Polk, of Lexington, was
permanent secretary. A committee on
resolutions, composed of one from each
district and two for the state at large,
was appointed. While the committee
retired TO draft resolutions, John
Young Brown was escorted TO the plat
form and made vigorous, impassioned
speech. He was constantly interrupted
by applause.
The resolutions committees report
recommended the endorsement OF Bry-
an and the Chicago platform, de-
nounced the methods of the Louiyille
convention to secure the nomination OF
William Goebel, declared that the re-
port of the committee on credentials OF
the Louisville convention was secured
by shameful and fraudulent tactics. de-
nounced "McKinleyism" and other ma
tional affairs, and provided that con-
yention be held in Lexington on
Wednesday, August 16, at one p. m, TO
declare principles and nominate cam
didates for the November election.
At the convention TO be held here Au-
gust IS the anti-Goebel democrats will
claim the regular party emblem. Ac-
cording TO law, this emblem must be
claimed every fourth year by the party,
and the secretary of state must grant
the claim. This must be made in con-
vention. The convention at Louisville
was fourth in the series, but II failed to
claim the emblem. The anti-Goebel
men will make this claim and, as the
secretary OF state is republican, IL Is
believed he will grant the request.
IL is given out that the slate, as far
as il has been arranged for nomination
at the coming convention, is: John
Young Brown, governor; p. p. John
ston. lieutenant governor; James
O'Neil, Louisville; Harry Myers. Gov
ington; w. c. Owens, Scott; James
Todd. Owen, and j. Il. Barnett, for at
torney-general; Sam Lutes, Fulton, au-
ditor; John Dodge, Covington, treas
urcr.

THE YELLOW FEVER.
No Deaths Mt the soldiers Home since
Tuesday Might - Four New
Cnscs ON Wednesday,.

Washington, Mug. 3.-Advices re-
ceived by Surgeon General Wyman up
20 nine o'clock Wednesday night from
Hampton show that the only change in
the yellow fever situation is the addi-
ton of four suspected cases to those
already in existence. These have been
sent from the camp to the hospital.
This information and the additional
statement that there has not been a
death since seven o'clock Tuesday night
and that everything with reference to
the disease Is more than favorable, was
received by Gov. =. +. Woodhn, of the
soldiers home. He also wired thai ne
is quite sure the pestilence will be
stamped out. From DR.. White, who has
general charge of affairs at Hampton
but who remains away from the institu-
ton, word came that the situation is
unchanged. Gov. Woodfin has prepared
list OF all members of the home who
have been furloughed since July 22, IT
the same time giving their destination.
This will be telegraphed TO Surgeon
General Wyman and will be spread
broadcast through the press, thus en-
abling municipalities where the in
mates may now be TO detain them for
