Found in APE Yard"

Mr.. d. A. Robinson, of Jefferson
vile, Mo, was here last week. He
was swell beau; money, gold
watch, fine pins and rings, fast
horse and rubber tire buggy--he
was hummer sure. He was here
for several days, conspicuous as a
swell, but all of sudden he disap-
peared, and then his new acquaint-
ences went in search of him and
found him after several hours look
ing around, stretched out in the
Ape Yard" money, watch, good
clothes had been exchanged for
swollen face, red eyes, etc.
He was taken to an II
and cared for until his old father
came from Warsaw, KY, and took
charge of the prodigal. The young
man is about 25 years of age.
From the old fathers facial ex-
preston we would think he would
kill the "fatted calf and use the
raw hide as an antedote. The boy
went home with his father.

MODERN DANCING.
AN episcorAl rRnLArr on DANCING.

Because an impression was
made some time ago by Dean Lee
of Lexington, before public as
sembly. and that this may force an
an unjust conclusion rejecting on
one of our religious organizations
we quote from living authority
though the man who penned these
words has gone away from earth
and entered upon his reward
His teaching came from the Divine
Law given, verified by the eXperi
ences Of men. Careful indeed
should the chosen Of God be to
teach His word. Unpleasant
though it may be to criticise those
Of the high calling, we must sup
port right rather than men.
Bishop Hopkins, Of Vermont,
who. at the time Of his death, was
Senior Bishop and by many rec
ognized as the strongest intellect
of nis church, expressed himself
in the following language:
"In the period OF youthful ed
ucation | have shown that dancing
is charpeable with waste Of time,
the interruption to youthful study,
the indulgence Of personal vanity
and display, and the premature
incitement of passions. AT the
age of maturity it adds to these no
small danger to health, by late
hours, himsey dresses, heated
rooms and exposed PERSONS
while its incongruity with strict
Christian sobriety and principle,
and its tendency to love of disslpa-
ton, are so manifest, that no in
genuity can make it consistent
with the covenant OF baptism.
1t would give me sincere pleas
ure to have expressed very differ
ent opinion, because l am well
aware that very few Of my readers
will relish my unaccommodating
sentiments on such d theme. But
candor and honesty forbid, and !
may not sacrifice what believe
to be the truth, in the service OF
worldly eXpediency.

CRUELTY.
full attorney

In the Mt. Sterling Gazette, Of
date July 4, 1901, under the head
of "Youtsey's Punishment, in
the bottom or last paragraph of it
is the following:
'It is predicted that he can not
last before the great furnaces, the
heat of which during the hot days
nearly exhaust the negroes who
are put on this duty"
We believe that prisoners,
whether Youtsey or any other man,
should be treated according to the
letter of the law. His verdict was
confinement in the State peniten-
tiary, not in a place near the great
engines, that he may be tortured
and his days shortened. Punish
ment for crimes like Youtsey's is
death or the taking away of liber-
ty. To torture is inhuman. This
is Christian country and it tshould
be our chief aim to reform and
convert. Away with the uncivil-
lied torturing methods. To de-
pri,e one of liberty is severe pun
ishment indeed.

THE MT. STERLING
COLLEGIATE SCHOOL.

1t is our pleasure to again call
the attention Of our readers to the
school Of Prof. Rogers-the Mt.
Sterling Collegiate School. The
first Monday in September next
will be the beginning of the 9TH
session. Those persons who have
entrusted their children to Prof.
Rogers have no reason whatever
for complaint. This school urges
thoroughness in preference to the
modern stuhing. 1t is fact that
his pupils are practical, for he dis
tills into them the uses ofeducation
in each of its branches Then
they are generally informed; re-
ceiving the benefit ofhis reading,
they are up to the present.
Mrs. Rogers is fine instructor
in vocal music and OH the piano
and to this work she will give her
entire time during the coming ses-
sion. She is also a fine elocution-
ist and will train young men and
women in this branch Of educa-
ton. Their services can be secured
at a reasonable fee. The location
of the school is on Clay Street on
a high elevation. Young men and
women who desire preparation for
college work should place them
selves under Prof Rogers.

IMPORTANT EXPENDITURE


A few days ago we were called
upon to print some bills announo-
ing the sale Of the Gibson real es-
tate. Usually such sale under
an order Of the court is advertised
according to prescribed form,
therefore there is nothing more
than a plain description before the
people. Attorney Robert H.
Winn is the lawyer conducting the
sale of this suburban real estate
and he goes at his business in a
way that the people know to an
avactness what he is offering
The property is surveyed as a
whole and then divided into lots.
An exact plats and descriptions are
shown on his bill and the person
interested is in possession OF such
information that would enable
him to make an intelligent bid
though hundreds of miles away.
We hereby congratulate Mr.. VIM
on this original way of advertising
real estate and commend him tc
the public as faithful and thought
full attorney.

degree the college can confer.
Mr.. Dawson paid his way to this
honor by setting type for the
Georgetonian. and is worthy and
deserving. We stand by h c
trustees in their decision and trust
Mr.. Dawson will be a valuable ac-
QUESTION to the Faculty Of the Mt.
