the Cumberland mountains in Ken

'.Jess Cole, the sage of Lee county, is
a famous local character. One day he
entered the courthouse at Beattyville.
He stood against the wall for awhile
watching a group of lawyers who were
discussing a case which was to come
up that morning. Their conversation
panied him, and he stepped up to them.
Gentlemen he said, twenty years
ago the lawyers in this yere state was

hats as big as bushel baskets. Now,

NEW SHORT STORIES
How the Turkeys Were Lost.


There are in round numbers 400
employees of all trades in the govern
ment printing office in this city. In the
winter of 1SSS-S9 there were about
1000 men and women employed in the
building. Probably that small army of
servants of the government never
heard how fifty-five girls employed in
the bindery prevented the distribution
of 5000 turkeys ON the day before
Christmas, 1888. -.
MIR. Peters, chief clerk of the navy
department, tells the story: I'm No
vember, 1883, Secretary Whitney post
poned the preparation of his annual
report until a very late day. In fact, 1t
was not until the Thursday before the
Saturday on which it must be mailed
that he began the dictation. But he
was a rusher when he started, and the
document was written, printed, bound
in pamphlet form and mailed before
midnight on Saturday.
1.-The secretary himself visited the
government printing Office and watched
the work of the compositors, pressmen
and binders and was greatly pleased
over the interest which every one
seemed to take in helping us out. On
Tuesday of the following week, just
two days before Thanksgiving, Mr..
Whitney sent for me and said, Mr..
Peters, / wish you would go to the
market and buy a turkey for each and
every employee of the government
printing office
But, Mr.. Secretary / replied, it
would require 1900 turkeys to fill that
order
cit makes no difference if 5000
would be needed. Buy them
lit is impossible said. There are
not 5000 unsold turkeys to be had in
Washington today
"HThen,' said he, ascertain the names
of the men who had the principal part
in getting out the report, get turkey
for each today and order the necessary
number, 5000 or 5000. and see that
they are delivered in time for Christ
mas
Under these instructions nine. tur-
keys were sent to the printing office
that day. The next morning the secre-
tary received ten letters. Nine were
notes of thanks, and the other was a
letter from fifty-five girls in the bind
cry, who demanded a turkey each be-
cause of the part they had taken in
getting out the report. AS soon as he
had read that letter the secretary of
the navy sent for me and, handing the
letter over, said:
"'Mr. Peters, have gone out of the
turkey business
''Nothing further was necessary. The
Christmas distribution was not made
and all on account of the haste of fifty
five women to get recognition for their
services. "-Washingt Post.
