A married couple who are in the habit oe-
casionally of going out at night TO entertain
ments and social affairs, at such times
make themselves solid with their little
boy by saying that they are going out TO
see a sick man. One week these social af-
fairs came pretty frequently. On Monday
night they went to the theater, and told
the lad that they had to sit up with the sick
man. Tuesday night they went out to visit
a neighbor, and explained that they were
going to give some medicine to the man
who was sick On Wednesday night they
proposed to attend an entertainment, and
apOlogized to the young chap by saying they
had to put plaster on the sick mans back
to draw out the pain. Papa, asked the
youth, sis the sick man in much pain :"
Every much, my SON." "And is he pretty
near dead?" Yes, he's in bad shape" The
lad thought deeply for awhile, and then re-
marked: well, papa, he can't die any
too soon to suit me. memphis Scimitar.

Detectives Arc Rnsv.

Frankfort, KY, Feb. 5.-The detec-
tives are working night and day, and
seem to be meeting with great sue
cess. While very reticent, they talk
enough TO lead the admirers of the
deeE governor to believe that they
are on the track of the coward and
his accessories. and think it but a mat
ter of a few days until several people
are arrested. They still have the man
whom they believe knows the whole
party, and will hold him until he con-
fesses or they become satisfied that
they have the wrong person.

Featherweight ChampiOnship right

Chicago, Feb. 3.-Terry McGovern,
of Brooklyn, at Tattersalrs proved his
right to the title of feather-weighU
champion of the world by knocking
out Eddie Santry, of Chicago, who
claims the leadership of the 122-pound
class by virtue of 4 knockout of Ben
Jordan, of England. The knockout
came in the fifth round after a fierce
miX-up in which Santry did some
clever work, but Terry was too strong
for the Chicago lad. Referee George
Siler declared McGOvern the winner
to save Santry from further punish
ment.

Vii Not Meet i'm LONDON.

Louisville, KY, Feb. 5.-The CORE
spOndent of the Courier-Journal at
Frankfort wired his paper as follows:
The session of the general assembly
which the republicans were to have
held at London has been called off.
Many democratic members of the gen.
eral assembly are now in Louisville,
to which place they secretly adjourned
last Friday in order to avoid arrest
and forced trip to London, but they
will not have to hold sessions in Lou
isville, as they had intended.
The republicans are all in London
preparing to caucus tomorrow and to
hold a session on Tuesday, but they
will be informed that the London ses-
sion is not to be held at all, and it is
believed that on Tuesday the repub-
lican members will be back in Frank
fort.
In fact the clouds this morning for
the first time began to lift, and, while
peace is not assured beyond a doubt,
the developments are such as to make
it reasonably certain that the war is
drawing to a close.

No Federal Interference.
Washington, Feb. "A Kentucky del
egation consisting of Senator-elcct
Blackburn, Representatives Rhea.
Smith, Allen and Gilbert, and ex-Rep-
resentative Thompson, called on Pres
ident Mckinley Friday to protest
against any federal interference in
that state. Senator Lindsay was also
there, but did not come with the other
gentlemen.
The Kentuckians said that federal
interference in Kentucky would be
sure to result in serious trouble, as
the first movement of troops would
cause an uprising that could not be
easily quelled. They expressed the
opinion that the difficulties would be
adjusted without further violence if
the people of Kentucky were allowed
TO settle the matter themselves.
Washington, Feb. AT the cabinet
meeting Friday it was decided that the
situation in Kentucky is not such as
to require federal interference, and
! consequently the president will take
no action under the present eondi-
tions.
A Conflict Averted.
Frankfort, KY, Feb. 5.-Armed con-
fiict between the civil authorities of
Franklin county and national guard
of the state of Kentucky has been
averted, and, unless new causes should
come to the front, there is small like
lihood that the political situation viii
again become as threatening as it has
been during the last As hours.
Gov. Taylor Sunday morning or
dered the release of Alonzo Walker.
for the possession of whom Judge
Moore had declared that Sheriff Suter
would swear in a posse and take pos
session of the capitol grounds, if such
an extreme became necessary. While
NV US AAAS-AAt5 III HIS tANNAOA1 tllE CAlSl-
ence of the writ of habeas corpus
which had been sworn out on behalf
! of Walker, Gov. Taylor by releasing
the man removed the most threaten
ing sign of trouble. The commanding
| officers of the troops which guard the
capitol grounds are careful to say that
the situation is entirely a military az
fair, and that they extend the writ of
habeas corpus very little considera-
ton; but, whether they regard it or
not, Walker is free, and Sheriff Suter
will not be called upon to summon
force in the attempt to secure his re-
lease.
Both sides will take a rest pending
the session of the republicans called
by Gov. Taylor at London. No demo-
Gratis will attend this unless they are
taken there by the military forces of
the state, and no attempt viii be made
in this direction by Gov. Taylor until
he has afforded them every Opportuni-
ty to go to London of their own ac-
cord. What will be done when it has
/ been made certain that the democrats
will not visit London has not been
definitely determined by Gov. Taylor.
1t is likely that matters viii on both
sides be allowed to drift until after
/ the funeral OF Gov. Goebel.

Lester Grant is feeling pretty deeply
Disguised with gasolene motor engines
and not without reason either. He
thought at first it was just what he
wanted to operate his little boat upon
the river, which he launched July 1st,
but he has had nothing but trouble
concluded TO take it out and replace it
with a regular old fashioned engine
and boiler, which can be depended up
on. Last Saturday evening he had
announced a dance at the pavilion
up the river, had made one trip
and had big load on for a secoLd
trip, when the thing stopped as short
as grand fathers clock and absolutely
refused to be coaxed or cajoled into
moving. After working with it half
an hour, they gave itup and polled
back to the dock and unloaded, Mr..

were taken up on the first trip. 1t is
quite unfortunate for he has invested
considerable in the enterprise and has

Mai. Frank II. Chase Of Smyrna, on
returning from Sunday school last
Sunday was met with genuine sur
prise. A few Of his most intimate
friends had concluded TO call and re-
mind the Majo that this day he was
to pass another milestone in LIES
journey, in fact that it was his birth
day. Preparations had been made at
his beautiful home for most sumptu-
Gus dinner, which was greatly enjoyed
by his guests. The afternoon was
passed in pleasant conversation aud
viewing of many relics of the Majors
army life, among which was CORE
pondence in the hand writing OF Abra-
ham Lincoln; two pieces of rope which
Payne and Mrs. Surat were hung; a
piece of Grape accidently taken by la
dies parasol from the casket of Lin
coin. This was rescued by Maj. Chase,
he being on guard over the re remains
at that time. These relics were of pc
culiar interest so fondly does the men,
DRY of men cling around any incident
in the life and death OF our martyred
Lincoln. After dinner was served Mr..
Nj. A. Reed read regrets from those
unable TO be present, and f. II. Spen-
Ger the following characteristic saluta-
tion from the Hon. Geo. f.. Nichols of

TO OUR FRIEND MAI. CHAsE:-
This day commentaries the fact,
That the years OF life are passing by;
With all your shrewdness and tact,
You can not stop them, tho you try
With paste chalk wig or dye
In this / would be understood,
And reference make 10 things eXternal
For well we know that old heart would
And does, retain its youth eternal,
And will, beyond the gates internal.
Your hand old man, IS just as warm,
As in the days since passed away
Your friendship ever bore the charm
OF never changing, night or day,
When once twas won, twas there To stay.
Then here's to friendship honest true
The strongest tie of all the race
The friends who ever stand by you
That never wear double face
And chief among them, Major Chase.
