Their Yelling ia Some Instances

colored man, who was carried down on
blanket by four soldiers. They said
he was shot through the arm, and l
could see a bandage there. 1t was the
right arm, | remember. 1t struck me
as queer that wound in the arm
should disable the man so he couldn't
walk, and when l had a chance to look
him over l found big black bruise on
his left thigh. That'set me thinking.
and, on examining his arm more close
ly, l found that the bullet which had
gone through his right arm at the
shoulder had gone through the body
also, diagonally across from shoulder
to hip, and the man was dying.
'sHe did die little later, but before
his last breath he managed to give me
a lock of his curly black hair, tied with
a little ribbon and picture of himself,
to be sent to his mother at place in

THE LIGHT ARTIST.
An Important Factor NowsAASs -
the Designing Of IIOusss fSs
the Wealth..

As people are gradually coming to
realize that hot and badly ventilated
rooms mean debility and eventual sick
ness, the ventilation engineer" has
taken his place on the staff on which
the architect relies for the carrying out
of his designs in dwelling construction.
Side by side with this improve me NJ in
the hygienic conditions Of the interior
of houses has arisen new conception
of the aesthetic possibilities of artificial
light, and in the erection Of the modern
houses Of the wealthy classes the light
artist has become a very important,
parsonage. A well-known light de
signer talks entertainingly on the sub
Ject He compares light with happi-
ness, which is all matter of contrast.
and must be treated accordingly. He
tells how Alma Tadema in London, has
small! door to his atrium, in order that
its size may be the more felt on enter
ing; SO must the degree of light be
graduated throughout the building.
On entering dimly-lit hall from the
dark it appears brilliant; but this.
again. must be eclipsed by the light of
| the reception rooms. So there should
be, as in good photograph. light and
dark portions, and semi-tones. for a
room fit equally throughout gives fiat
effect, and is neither artistic nor rest
full. 1t should not be forgotten that the
pupil of the human eye has consider
able power of expansion and contrac-
ton. and in the presence of bright
! light an involuntary contraction takes
place. Reading under such conditions
, is destructive to the eye. Frost your
lamp. and though you get actually ten
per cent. less light, you get apparently
more, for it is diffused. Thus the secret
OF restful light is the illumination Of
large surface with an absence of daz-
sling blotches. In a room thus lit the
weakest eyes can read in comfort.

gallant and high-minded gentle
man, fearless and true, yet as gen

Only few short days since he
was in our city and we had the
pleasure of seeing and cOnversing
with him. Now. silent and still,
he lies in the home prepared for all
of earth. Another evidence of the

He was member of the Knights
Templar Masons and was buried by
them at Shelbyville yesterday, a

other points.

Twice has his herd been attacked

ease without a single loss, saws the
Farmers Friend. His remedy is
as follows: Take quantity of the
bark of wild cherry, put into an
iron kettle with water and reduce
to very strong solution. For hogs
that are not too sick to drink swirl.

Is a cheap, easy and safe remedy.

A SPLENDID APPOINTMENT.

On Thursday afternoon President
Mckinley sent to the Senate the
nomination Of Hon. John w.
Yerkes, of Danville, TO be Commits
sioner of Internal Revenue, TO fill
the vacancy caused by the death of
Col. George W. Wilson. The APP
pOintment will be confirmed at
once.
TO the people of Kentucky, who
know and admire this able, clean
and upright Christian gentleman,
it is not necessary to say a word.
But to the outside world, with
the greatest pride, Kentucky can
say Here is my Chevalier Bayard.
Every inch man. Sans puer ct
sans reproche! Match him who
cant"
The President has honored him
self, his party and his country by
the appointment of John w. Yerkes.
He is in every way competent and
qualified for the high place to which
he has been appointed. 1t in
wolves great labor, vast amount
of patronage and unceasing watch
fulness to prevent schemes to de-
fraud the government.
In accepting the position Mr..
Yerkes will necessarily have TO
make a personal and financial sac
rifice which few men would do.
Kentucky is proud of her son and
is in some measure consoled for his
being kept out of the Office to which
many believe he was fairly and
honestly elected by his promotion
to this high position under the gov
eminent.

GALLANT AND CULTURED

on Monday afternoon, we learned
that Major William f. Startling had
died that day at his home in Green
vile, Miss, very suddenly, aged
abont 81 years.
Major Startling was the oldest son
of Col. Lyme Startling and wife, and
was highly cultu ed and elegant
gentleman. He was brave and
gallant soldier i'm The Federal army
and was promoted to the position
of Major for gallantry in action.
After the war g settled in Missis-
sippi and was an energetic and
p .ominent citizen. He was civil
engineer employed on the govern
ment levee works. He never mar
ried. He was related to large
circle of our best citizens and WAS
universally admired for his noble
qualities of head and heart.
We knew him well and rejoiced in
his friendship.
He leaves two sisters MRS. r. p.
Pepper and Miss Lottie Starling)
and two brothers (Messrs. Charles

Internal Revenue, we earnestly hope
that brave, loyal, true-hearted and

District. He is well qualified for
the position, having served as n
revenue officer several years. The
State of Kentucky owes Dan Collier
a debt of gratitude for the skillful
manner in which he conducted

times of this year. But for his un-

The German Bird.

New York Press: Twenty-Five years
ago Sol Smith Russell, travelling
through the country with the Berger
family, bell ringers, sang a song that
had lines like this:
IT'S my hum-bul opinion,
No birds so goot what flaps It's wings
AS goose-mit sage n ing-yun.
AS we approach the wholesale muir
der of the American turkey in order TO
give thanks for what the Lord hath
~vouchsafed to us in the last twelve
months, Consul General Frank Mason
writes from Berlin hat the goose IS
dominating the tables of the festive
season throughout the fatherland.
Geese worth nearly 49, 900, 900 are sold
annually in Berlin alone, the wholesale
price ranging from AZ to 60 cents each.
Germany, unable to supply it's own
geese, imports IL, 900 daily from Russia
In specially constructed goose trains Of
from fifteen to forty cars. Sanitary
officers inspect the freight, sending the
fat ansers to the market to be sold, and
the a ones to the farms to be CON
ditioned." One sick goose puts a whole
carload in quarantine for eight days,
and a dead goose extends the period
eight days more, the cost, some $476,
being charged to the owner.
