ELECTRIC Line
From MadisonviIIe to Marion and
Crittenden Springs.

Up north, and east, and even in
central Kentucky electric railway
lines are banding the towns and
villages together, and the PRESS is
happy to announce that some en-
terprising eastern capitalists have
their eyes on this section with a
view OF constructing some of these
popular lines here. A reliable
eastern capitalist and promoter
has been corresponding with par
ties here about the feasibility of
line from Marion to Madisonville
and from Marion to Crittenden
Springs. He is gathering all the
necessary information about the
country and the towns, and is for
mulating his plans. The near flu
ture is most certain. to see this EN-
terprise take substantial shape,
and the chances are fairly good
that one or both of these lines will
be constructed. We would not
mislead our readers by giving the
affair too rosy hue. The road is
not building yet, nor are the plans
matured, but the idea is being en-
tertained by capital, and when the
splendid country through which
the line would pass is considered,
and the further fact that two of
the best towns in Western Ken
lucky are likely to take the
matter up and do all they can to
bring it to successful consum-
nation is remembered, there GER
tainly appears to be more than a
probability in the undertaking.

iioaEs that he was not drunk, but
was tired of life and for them to
leave him. Clark secured sDrs.
Wofford and Clement, who found
Myers in critical condition, and
for while it seemed as though
Myers desire to die would be graf
