RESIDENCE DAMAGED.

The handsome residence of MIR.
X. c. Hardwick, on South Nam,
caught on fire Tuesday morning
and was badly damaged before the
flames could be extinguished. A
spark from the furnace chimney ig-
nited the shingle roof The family
were awaken by neighbors knock
ing on the door and calling out that
the building was burning. The
fire department responded promptly
and the flames were confined to the
roof. The rooms in the second floor
were very badly damaged by smoke
and water, in fact the entire house
was damaged to a great extent
Some of the furniture was saved in
good condition, but much of it was
injured. Mr.. Hardwick had 81, 500
insurance on building and $3.50 on
furniture, which amounts will prob
ably cover the loss. An adjuster 10
expected to arrive to-day.

RAILROAD.
Franchise For Street Railway,
and Dummy Road to Canton.
Keynote Struck at Last and The
Biggest Step Forward Ever
rlade By Our City.

AT a series of meetings held dur
ing the last few days by the cap
italists and business men of Bop
kinsville, plan has been devised
and a movement inaugurated which
insures for our merchants that re-
lief from oppressive freight rates
for which they have been so long
striving. 1t is proposed to build an
electric railroad from here to the
Cumberland River. Several routes
are being canvassed. The enter
prising little city of Cadiz has in
contemplation the building of a
steam railroad from that point to
Gracey or Cerulean. She has $751;
600 made up and in bank, directors
and officers all chosen, and incor-
porated as the Cadiz Railroad Co.
The projectors of the Electric Rail
road here will seek to interest
Cadiz in our line, In return Tor
which we agree to run it through
Cadiz to Canton. This will give
Cadiz not only railway connection
with two vast systems, the l.. 81 n.
and the /. c., but also gives her
river competition. A deputatlon of
our merchants is shortly to pay
Cadiz a visit and lay the matter be-
fore the incorporators of the Cadiz
Railroad Co., and no doubt is en-
tertained of their ability to convince
the people of Trigg's metropolis of
the superiority OF our plan. The
cohrter of the proposed company
will embrace street railway fran
chise and the right to build other
lines to such points as the coal
mines, and 10 Elkton. One hhn-
dred thousand dollars can be raised
here for investment in the enter
prise within forty-eight hours from
the opening of the stock books. Es-
Inmates have been asked for and in
due time the materially ventiiat.
ed and shown up-will be laid be-
fore the people of Hopkinsville and
their subscriptions taken to the
stock.

DIR. SCHLESINGER,
The Psychic Medium Gives More
Manifestations.
His Wonderful Revelations Con-
vince Many Skeptics Who
Have Tested Him.

DR.. Louis Schlesinger, the spirit
alist medium, has given a number
of wonderful manifestations this
week at his rooms IN the Phoenix
Hotel.
Mr.. w. M. Hancock was one of
the visitors who received messages
from his departed friends, and the
medium told him name after
name written upon a paper and
folded so as to conceal the name.
The medium could have had no
possible way of finding out the
names of the parties, some living
and others dead, except through
some mysterious agency.
His communications with the
spirit world are held through his
brother, Ben, and his revelations
are startling and convincing.
Judge w. p. Winfree gave him a
sitting Wednesday afternoon and
had his skepticism removed. He
prepared a long list of names in his
own Office and kept them in his
pocket until they were placed in
his own hat and the medium took
them out one at time and told the
full name of each person, whether
dead or alive, the relationship and
other matters concerning them with
out unfolding them.
The same afternoon a manifesto
ton was given in the Kentuckian
office and the medium readily called
out the full names of a number of
parties he had never seen before.
He picked out the names of the
dead and corrected mistake made
by the gentleman who placed the
names in the hat. He was told
that only two were names of the
dead, but he insisted that there
were three, singled them out and
called out the names, one of which
had been put in and forgotten. He
then put himself into trance and
his spirit brother made a lengthy
communication from the spirit land.
In addition to these wonderful
manifestations he claims to be able
through the remarkable powers he
possesses to cure the whisky and
tobacco habits, and also heal many
diseases, not incurable, at one
sitting on positive guarantee.
DIR. Schlesinger will be here only
a few days more and those who
wish to see his wonderful powers
manifested, can see him at the
Phoenix Hotel.

A HUMAN TRAGEDY.
Soulful Compassion Changed Into Un.
 mltIgated Contempt.

From the New York Times.
 The thunder storm had spent its rage at last Small pools of water lay upon the sidewalks and causeway.
 The black clouds were rapidly disap- bearing from the sky. The silver moon and shimmering stars were endeavoring to reassert themselves. The feverish city panted it's grateful thanks, like an anil nal refreshed.
 Zenobia came to the window and threw wide the easement. A sound of woe fell upon her ears. Along the avenue there slowly came a human form
 Anon it raised it's hands and appealed to the lofty heavens Anon 1t gesticulated despairingly to the moon and the stars forgive her! Heaven hears me! I will never forgive her"
 "A human tragedy" unused Zenobia- "the old, old story of faithless love-
 AS the man neared her she noticed that he shook with emotion. But he trod the avenue with a heavy, manly step. Oppo- site her mansion the storm had left a pool upon the sidewalk about two inches deep. The man stepped heavily into this pool and the water splashed into his face.
 And as the waves close over my head '' he cried, T swear I will never forgive her"
 .Loadedr' said Zenobia haughtily, and withdrew from the easement.
 And the human tragedy staggered down the avenue.
