Electric Light Heat

The amount of heat given out by an
ordinary incandescent lamp is greatly I'M
derrated in the popular mind. An or
binary 16 candle power lamp immersed
In quart Of water will heat it to the
boiling point in an hour. Celuloid in
contact with lamp bulb may be gnited
in few minutes. while silk shades close
to the bulbs are scorched in few hours.
In Boston last year an incandescent
lamp, hanging by It's cord against a
wooden partition, gradually scorched and
charred the wood until 1t burned hole
completely through it and set fireNto it.

FOR PRISON COMMISSIONER

FOR PRISON COMMISSIONER r
Mr. John ID. Wyatt, of Ewing,
editor of the Ewing Enquirer, was
in the county last week, leaving for
Louisville Monday. Mr.. Wyatt is
a son Of Lemuel Wyatt, who was a
son of Hayden Wyatt, deceased. of
Of this county, and is, therefore a
Montgomery man. At present
while editor, he is also County
Judge of Fleming county, by ap-
pointment of Governor Beckham.
Mr. Wyatt is a candidate before
the Legislature for the Office Of
Prison Commissioner. A Mont
gomery man, true Democrat, fear
less in the discharge of duty, a
brother editor who has been faith
ful as a journalist, unfaltering in
the discharge of honest convictions
and unrelenting in war against all
lawlessness we commend him as
faithful stewart, worthy Of the po-
sition he asks.
AS a Prison Commissioner he
would have a workssto perform, and
in this he would be unlike the Oflic-
ial who is merely in for emoluments
1t would be in the interest of the
Commonwealth and the Prison that
he would labor, throwing about the
prisoner such influences that would
make him better man than when
he entered prison walls

AMEND THE CONSTITUTION.

If our representatives consider
tie material interests of Kentucky
they will take steps towards amend
ing the constitution so that coun-
ties may exercise their right to
vote aid to railway companies by
taking stock, enabling roads to
penetrate rich mineral and timber
fields of Eastern Kentucky. But
for this mistake, barring the people
against this privilege, by our law
makers of ten years ago many OF
our towns would be cities, the en-
ergetic man would be wealthy,
churches would be free of debt, our
public schools would have no supe-
riors in any of the States and pay
rolls would make business continu-
Gus and thrifty.
