Excellent Riding and Courage Saves
The Life of a Little Girl.

HARDIEsBURo, Ky, Jan. 2, 1900. (Spec
ial)-Self control, excellent riding and
true courage perhaps saved little Daisy
Pate, the ten ear-old daughter of Aus
tin Pate, and sister of exsheriff S. A.
Pate, from a most horrible death last
Saturday. While returning home from
Kirk with her father on horseback
her horse became frightened and ran
away. The little girl never once lost her
self control, but taking her foot out Of
the stirrup for fear the animal would fall
or throw her she steadily held the reins
and let her run. Her father and several
persons she had passed pushed forward
expecting every minute to find the
child dashed to the frozen earth. But to
their great joy when about 2 miles further
they met her calmly riding back to meet
them, the ANIMALS excitement fully ex-
hausted and under perfect control.

Getty DADS"
OF LewIsport flake Desirable Record
At That Place.

LxwIsPoRT, Jan. Especial. Accord
ing to the statement Of the trustees
the town Of Lewisport was never in
better financial condition than at
present. She is practically out OF debt
and has some money in the treasury A
town order does not 90 begging now,
but is as good as bank check. This
showing is especially creditable in view
OF the fact that the town taxes for 1899
have not yet been collected and that
more money has been spent for much
needed work on the streets and alleys
than for many years previous.
Our city dads" who have SO jealous
ly guarded the interest Of the town and
thus been chiefly instrumental in bring
ing about this desirable condition, de-
serve the congratulations and thanks OF
the citizens.
