A PATRIOTS DAUGHTER.
One OF The First Contributors To
The GOebel rIOnument Fund.

Mrs. H, A. Summers, mother Of
Mrs. J. o, Cooper. of this city, who
is still in good health at the great
age of more than 90 years, was a
great admirer Of the late Gov Goe-
bel and his death was almost a
personal bereavement to her,
although She never saw him and
admired him only for his public
services in behalf Of the people.
She was among the first contribu-
tors to the Goebel Monument Fund
and sent her contribution in direct,
Withholding her name but signing
herself ga daughter of soldier
killed at the battle of New
Orleans. Her letter aroused such
interest that Gov, McCreary was
anxious to find out who the writer
was and his inquiries brought out
the desired information. Mrs.
Summers was a Miss Anthony and,
as she stated in her letter, her father
was one of the seven Americans
killed at New Orleans IS years ago.
1t is the patriotic devotion of such
mothers of the great common
people, that will keep bright the
memory Of the greatest Governor
Kentucky ever had.

BOTH in LOUISVILLE.
Gov. Beckham And Mr.. Taylor
Speut Sunday In Louisville.
Republicans Keep Their Purposes
Dark, But Evidently Intent TO
ignore the Court of Appeals.

Louisville, March 18.-The two
Governors Of Kentucky were enter
tanned in this city today. They
spent the day quietly, though both
received numerous calls from their
political and personal friends.
Mr.. Taylor and his assistants
among the Republican party leaders
are very close-mouthed as to the
nature of the mission on which
Surveyor of the Port c. M. Barnett
and Collector of Internal Revenue
Sapp left for Washington lastnight
after their conference with Taylor,
but there is little doubt it has to do
with the attitude Of the national adj
ministration toward the Republican
State Offices.
The latter don't conceal their
purpose to hold on to Interpretations
until the United States Supreme
Court has passed upon the question
of their right to hold them. They
do not intend to surrender the
State buildings and records after a
decision by the State Court of Ap-
peals if that court should decide
against them.
There has teen some talk that
the Democratic officers may try to
| exercise their functions in earnest
in case they are are upheld by the
Court of Appeals, which they re-
gard as the court of last resort iu
their cases, and it is believed the
Republicans wish to know the feel
ing of the national leaders Of theii
policy,
GOvernOrshlp Case.
The governcrship case is still be
fore the Circuit Courtof this county.
The Democratic attorneys will file,
probably tomorrow, their reply tc
the amended answer of the Repub-
licans, which was submitted last
week. AS no new points have been
raised Judge Field is expected to
make ruling in line with his for
liner decision that the action of the
Legislature on the gubernatorial
contest was final, and that has
court has no power to review it.
| Then the case will be taken to the
/ Court of Appeals, the proceedings
before which are expected to occupy
about two weeks. In case Of an ad-
! verse decision the Republicans will
then try to get hearing before the
/ United. States Supreme Court
! CIn advance of "a decision by the
Court of Appeals the Democratic
leaders don discuss their plans to
secure possession of the Offices in
case the action ofthe Legislature is
sustained, but there is every proba-
bility that such decision will bring
/ the rival administrations face to

QUESTION ANSWERED..

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale OF any medicine IN the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought OF using
anything else forindigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, aud they
seldom heard Of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostitution or Heart failure, etc. lhey
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation OF undi-
gpsted food, regulate the action OF the
liver, stimulate the ~nervousand organic
action oil the system, and that Is all
they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches and other aches. You
only need IA few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form, to make you
satisfied there is nothing serious the
matter with you. Sample bottles at

a HERO or THE MINE.
ne Rfsked His Life to save That OF O
Fellow Workman.

ESsNk0w OEAukAhs
Heber Franklin, a young man eri-
ployed at the Clear Geek mine, Is as
much a hero as any man who ever
brayed death on the battlefield. Frank
I'm sought not glory, but to save a hui
man life. There was a fire in the mine.
The men were called out. Then they
were about to shut Off the air IN order
to stop the flames, when IL was learned
that a lone miner was working deep in
the mine beyond the point where the
are started and was then raging with
growing strength. Here Is the story
Of the subsequent events:
Foreman Thomas Immediately called
for volunteers TO 90 with him into the
mine TO rescue the man. Several at
tempts were made by different ones,
but they were driven back by the
flames, and the cry Of Powder"
caused a hasty retreat.
Finally Heber Franklin, a young man
whose work keeps him on the outside,
said, Il will 90" And accompanying
Foreman Thomas he pressed on
through the fire and found the man
working away tamping n hole, entire
" unconscious of the danger threaten
Ing him. They succeeded In getting
out of the mine safely. when the fan
was shut of and the dip closed up.
The rescue was an act Of great bravery
on the part Of Franklin. as his work
kept him on the outside and De was
unacquainted with the exact lay Of the
land inside, and the danger Of sutfoca,
tion from black damp was great lie
was the only man of the many stand
ing by whose nerve did not desert hlm
1t is stated upon good authority tina
ten minutes more Of lost time wculd
have resulted in the death OF the miner
who was at work and possibly a great
loss to the company, as the supply Of
air could not be u of while there was
any hope Of rescue, and this world
have tended to feed the tiames.-Salt
