.EDDYVILLE AND
KUTTAWA
Are Added 10 the Marion TeIe
phone Exchange.

Last week Mr.. j. Il. Alexander
completed the good work of en-
tending his telephone line to Ed
dyville and kuttawa and these two
thriving towns have been added to
the Marion exchange. The Office
at Eddyville is in the Martin drug
store, and Mr.. W. A, Sexton is the
agent at Kuttawa. Both of these
offices are in the best of hands and
the public will find efficiency and
promptness a strong feature of the
business. Alexander continues to
weave web of lines with the Ma
rion exchange as the central point
and the service is of the very best
and the system one of the most
popular in Western Kentucky.
Marion should pull off her hat and
drop a courtesy every time she
meets the nervy and enterprising
telephone man, who has bound
her to SO many neighboring towns
and made her name so prominent
on the card.

Last year we grumbled at the
over production of water, and this
years its because of the shortness
of the supply. Between the two
the man SO disposed can work his
spleen off at steady gait the year
round, Notwithstanding his tale
of woe the chronic grumbler will
find this world, on an average, has
more water and cooler atmos-
phere than the one not designed
by the Great Architect, who made
this, and who desires us to appre-
ciate this with all its imperfections
as seen through human eyes.

GEN. CORDON'S LECTURE
The Famous Confederate Heard
by a Large Audience,
AT OPERA HOUSE MONDAY MIGHT.

Gen. John b. Gordon delivered
his famous lecture, The Last Days
of the Confederacy, at the opera
house Monday night Notwith-
standing the intense heat, a good
crowd gave him n most attentive
hearing--it was a receptive and an
appreciative audience, He was in
troduced by Walter Walker.
Gen. Gordon said that he came
to talk Of war, but his mission was
one OF peace. He related many
incidents to illustrate the charac-
ter of the soldier of the late war;
and these graphically told Incl
dents so wildly portrayed the sol
der that the audience felt that it
was watching the scene around the
camp fire or following with its own
eye the brave Boys in the blue
and in the gray upon the field Of
carnage. Pathos and humor were
50 naturally woven into the nara
tives that the audience was moved
f. ON tears to laughter and mirth
to sadness as the stories with their
somber or glowing vestures were
told Rising to his utmost height
and the speaker towers in ply
sique, and spirit and sentiment
Gen. Gordon said: Every soldier
in his grave, whether he Wore the
blue or the gray, was a martyr-a
martyr to his duty.
He said the Southern COME le-
racy was like a comet passing
through the heavens: it went down
at AppomattoX to rise no more for
ever: il passed rapidly through
the heavens and left a light that
would never be extinguished. He
told why Lee crossed the Potomac
into Pennsylvania -that, he said,
had not been understood by some;
it was easily explained-it was a
demand of the stomach; the army
needed food, Pennsylvania had it,
and nothing was more natural than
this movement. He spoke of the
friendly personal feelings between
the soldiers of the two armies and
told some touching stories Of the
battle field to demonstrate this
point, and his description Of the
exchange Of the rebel Johnnies
tobacco for the Yankee cotfee-an
international commerce full
of humor. The religious phase Of
the soldiers life was likewise de-
picted.
The speaker paid high tribute
to Stonewall jackson; his lofty
character, his answering deyo-
ton to God under all conditions:
his strategy on the field made him
a unique character i'll the history
of the world. The battle of Spott-
sylvania, the speaker thought, was
one of the greatest in military an
nails. While moe men were killed
in other battles, for courage and
heroism neither Lodi, Waterloo,
nor any other battle in ancient or
modern times eXcelled. He told
of Hancock's brilliant charge, cut
ting Lees army in two, and how
he was driven back. Here was
where Gen. Lee rode to the front
of the line when it was drawn up
for the counter charge, forgetting
his position as commander in chief
prepared to lead the charge in per
son. The scenes accompanying
the surrender Of Lee to Grant are
graphically told, and high tributes
were paid to the two great gen
erals.
Gen. Gordon closed his lecture
with tribute to the American flag
and called upon history to show
what an important part the South
played in making that flag,

Frederick Warde Appears in Sheridan
Knowles Tragedy.

In the role of Virginius the stern, affec-

appeared at his best at Suttons new the
alter last night.
The play concluded successful en-
gagement by the great tragedian. Those
who saw him last night would doubtless
welcome an opportunity to see him again
in Sheridan Knowles great tragedy,
"Virginius."
Representing the fierce Roman, in
whom pride and unbounded love mingled,
Mr.. Warde looked his part. His superb
acting when he killed his daughter rather
than see her in the arms of Appius
Claudius completely won the audience.
Barry tombstone as Icilius and Mr..
Herman as Claudius carried their parts
we'll and Miss Prescott as Servia and
Miss Ashton as Virginia were good.
The other members Of the company
gave fair support to the principal roles.

, During the past field season the United
States geological survey has had four
parties engaged in exploring and map
ping different parts of Alaska
The first. under w. J. Peters, assisted
by +. c. Schrader, started from Skag-
way early in February and went 1900
miles with dog team to Bergman. trad
ing post on the koyuku river. in Central
Alaska. near the Arctic circle. where a
cache of canoes and provisions had been
made the previous year.
The party then penetrated north to the
divide of the Yukon. making portages to
the headwaters of the Colville river, ana
descended through an entirely unknown
country to the Arctic ocean.
Expanse OF Rolling Tundra.
The country from the mountains to
the sea was found to be an eNpanse of
rolling tundra.
Owing to the lateness of the season
the party was unable to return over
land by another route. as planned. but
was obliged to skirt the coast to the
west in canoes and whale boats secured
from the natives in the hope Of reaching
Cape Nome before the ice set.
After working down the coast for $50
miles they We're fortunately picked NJ
The second party. under 7. G. Gerdine,
assisted by A. j. Collier. penetrated the
Seward peninsula. on which is located
Cape Nome, for about 100 miles and
spent the season in completing the eN
ploitation and mapping Of the western
part Of the peninsula north of the Nome
mining district which was surveyed last
year.
Penetrating Unknown Country.
The ghird party. under ". G. Menden-
hal, assisted by p. L. Reaburn, startrl

Yukon river for about 200 miles down its
course, then, crossing the divide to Berg
man. use was made of the cache estab-
1ished the year before. They then pene-
trated the unknown country to the west
ward and descended the kowak river to
kotzbue sound, an arm Of the Arctic
ocean.
The fourth party under command Of
a. II. Brooks. worked in Southeastern
Alaska examining the mineral deposits
and exploring the region from Juneau t,
Skagway. Two months were spent on
Prince of Wales island and the adjacent
mainland and much development in the
progress of that section was found.

FR1scHEAU Is ACQUITTED.
Justice Arnold Decides That the Testi-
monv Was Too Weak to Hold Him.


The preliminary hearing in the case Of
the state against Ernest F'rischeau.
charged by Mrs. Celia Davidson with
larceny as bailee. was concluded in JUS
tice Nelson's court yesterday afternoon.
but the decision was not rendered until
this morning. as the justice desired to
digest some points in connection with
the testimony.
In rendering the decision the justice
stated that in his opinion the testimony
offered in behalf of the state was not
strong enough to secure the conviction
of the defendant in the district court
and he would therefore dismiss the
charge and release the defendant from
the pressure of bonds.
on hearing the magic words spoken
F'rischeau remarked:
Judge, am as guiltless as the driven
snow. 1t was an outrageous prosecu-
tom
Mrs. Davidson alleged that she had en-
trusted 1880 to Frischeau with which to
settle some Indebtedness for her and he
had used a portion Of the money and
kept the balance
on the other hand Frischeau alleged
that Mrs. Davidson had given him only
$3.50 and he had not only used it as di-
rected, but had spent some Of his own
money in preliminaries. and instead or
owing her money she owed him.

mapping and examination of the tefri-
tory's resources will take the place OF
the rapid and often daring reconnois-
sance trips hitherto necessary.
Working Under Difficulties.
The size and remoteness of the coun-
try. the shortness of the field season. the
difficulties of travel and the danger OF
losing supplies or OF being caught by
oncon,ing winter has made the eNplora-
ton of Alaska comparable to the work
of Lewis and Clarke in their early jour-
ney across the continent. But i'll spite
of the difficulties. the survey parties
have carried out their work through five
seasons without failure or loss of life.
The results of the Alaskan work have
appeared in the annual reports of the
survey for the last three or four
seasons, together with maps of the
routes traverSed.
They are available for distribution ex-
