John Norris Dead

News of the death of John Norris
was received here Sunday morning,
and caused untold regret to the many
friends and acquaintance of the no.
BILE young man. He was the eldest
son OF Mr.. G. NJ. Norris, and for sever
al years resided in Lancaster. His
parents removed to Frankfort a few
years since, and John remained here
and clerked for r III BatSOn. His
health began to fail, but he remained
at work as long as he was able to get
about, and it was only on the urging
of friends that he quit when he did
and went to the home of his parents
in Frankfort. Consumption was the
trouble, and when he once began to lose
ground, he never rallied. He was cour-
ageOuS to the last, and believed until
the end was near that he would get
well. The writer called to see him in
Frankfort recently, and, as it was
perfectly plain that he would never
get well, it was distressing to hear
him tell of what he intended to do
when he got able to come to Lancas-
ter las he said Honey Everything
that medical skill, a loving mother and
devoted father could do was done for
his comfort. The people of Frankfort
The knew nearly every body there
were particularly kind to him, and he
told US that he didn't see how he
could ever repay the many acts of
kindness which had been bestowed
upon him. John Norris was an excep-
tionally bright boy. He was industri-
Gus and had no bad habits whatever.
He was well thought of by everybody,
especially the business men of the
town. The family have the deepest
sympathy of the entire community in
their great sorrow, but they have
great consolation in knowing that
John had lived a life that is sure to
win for him crown i'm the great here
after. He was eighteen years of age
and elected page in the Senate three
times. He was Assistant Sergeant at
Arms of the present Senate.
The remains reached Lancaster
Monday afternoon. Funeral services
were conducted by Rev. A. r. Moore.
in the Christian church Tuesday
morning, and the burial took place at
the Lancaster Cemetery.

A Grand Display.

The opening of spring millinery at
the Logan Dry Goods Co.'S. establish
ment Saturday, has caused many words
of praise to be heaped upon that hust-
ling firm for its pluck, push and en-
terprise. The two large store rooms
and the upstairs departments had
been especially decorated for the &C.
caslon, and the whole presented a
beautiful sight which can only be ap-
preciated by being seen, as words are
inadequate to describe it. The dry
goods and gents clothing and furnish
ing goods departments on the first
floors were decorated with green, white
and purple draperies extended around
the walls and ceilings. Different de-
signs of these, together with many
lace curtains and flowers made deci-
dedly pretty effect. Up stairs, the
millinery department was decorated
with handsome curtains, rugs, palms
and draperieS. The entire second floor
was decorated in similar style. The
scores of handsome and elegant hats
were Hastily arranged on many count
erS and show cases, and as one lady
expressed it, at was simply heaven
ly." On this floor is located the car
pet department and the bargain
counters. The latter consist of many
useful and ornamental articles which
range in price from one to twenty-five
cents. Each department is presided
over by polite and experienced clerks.
The millinery department is under the
charge of Miss Burns, of Chicago. Miss
Burns is one of the best milliners and
trlmmerS in the country, and this is
the first time she has ever been en-
ployed outside the large cities. Her
work has been praised by the ladies.
and Mr.. Logan is being congratulated
upon securing her services. Hand
some souvenirs were given away Sat-
uIday, and an orchestra, stationed in
convenient nook, furnished music
all day. The stores will remain deco
rated for several days, and if you have
not visited them, you should by all
means go, as this is an enterprise of
which all Lancaster people should feel
justly proud.

But the Governor Says "NO.o

WilliamStOwn Courier:-It is init
mated in the public press that Will
liam o. Bradley will be candidate
for Governor of Kentucky next year
on the Republican ticket. That he is
the natural leader of the Republican
party in Kentucky there is no doubt.
He towers above the small fry Repub.
lican crowd who have been trying to
dominate and control the Republican
party in this State for three years, as
an oak above a second growth of sassa-
fras bushes. We would however,
have thought that Bradley had had
enough of politics. To be Governor
of Kentucky once is enough to fill the
cup of political bliss to the brim for
the average Kentuckian. But politics
is not only a desperate game but ma
lignant disease. Once thoroughly in
Oculated with the virus of political
the patient never RECEIVERS.
