protested religion in his l4th year

on the farm and after attaining
his majority went into business in
Kelsey, but after few years his
health began to fail and he gave
up his business, went to Hot
Springs, Ark, and to Dawson
Springs, by, and was not much
improved and only a few days be-
fore his death he went to Evans
vile to be treated by physicians
there, but did not survive the oper
alton they performed but a few
heeting hours. Frequently dur
ing his Affections. in conversation
with his mother, he expressed a
willingness to die when ever it was
the will of his Creator to remove
him from this world Of sin and
sorrow. He will be sadly missed
by his relatives and friends and
the entire community will be de-
prived of the power OF his noble
christian example. A FRIEND.

OUR FRANKFORT LETTER.


DEAR PRESS: About 700 bills
have SO far been poured into the
Legislative hopper, while not ex.
ceeding a score have become laws,
but il is proper TO state in this con
nection that the most important
measures were given first consid
erati-n.
The last bill day" resulted in
the introduction Of a score of bills
aud the house TO meet this increa-
sing mountain of labor voted two
sessions daily until the rush is dis
posed of.
What was booked" for the big
gest fight resulted ia a compro-
mise. | refer TO the battle waged
between the doctors during the
first half Of the session, and it was
during the discussion of this mea.
sure in the Senate that Senator
Sam Dehaven, who is brother of
"our own" Bill Dehaven, made the
remark at the expense of the doc
tors, that the :.Allopaths, Homeo-
paths and Osteopsths, like the
path Of glory" lead bnt to the
grave" rfr
We are panied to announce the
death Of hon Harry p. Melon
aid, a member from Louisville.
He died on the 10th inst. after a
brief illness, of pneumonia. He
was one OF the most useful men,
bers, loved and respected by all
who had the good fortune to know
him
Hon w. @. Clarke, OF Paducah,
familiarly known as "Uncle Bill,
was carried home Thursday in
very hopeless condition. He was
with erysipelas of the
face .f
Senator J. F. Porter was scci-
shot in the leg by some
one dropping a revolver on the
floor of bis room. 1t is hoped that
he will soon be able to resume his
seat in the senate, which he SO
ably oiled last session, and which
has enabled him to ill
this session to the satisfaction of
a constituency who appreciate con
honesty and sobriety in
the discharge of official duties.
Hon Henry K. Lawrence has
been presiding over the house du-
ring the absence of Speaker Brown
He had added much to his already
great popularity by his impartial
ity and courtesy to the members
in his rulings. Unless all signs
fail that indicate anything in pol
itics, Trigg county will furnish a
candidate for speaker of the next
house in the person Of the above
named gentleman, who deserves
the support that will come to him
from every section Of the state.
Henry Lawrence is known to the
writer by long and intimate asso-
citation, to be patriotic, democrat
ic to the core, and true as steel to
his friends.
The house passed Hon Carl
Days bill which prevents the CO.
of the races in Berea
college, the only institution of the
kind in Kentucky where whites
and blacks are allowed to be edu-
Gated together.
Mr.. Butler made the opening
argument in favor of the bill, and
the roll call showed only five neg
stive votes. Seven Republicans
voted Yes, five voted No, and ten
from voting.
Jim Rogers, Of Christian in cas-
ing his vote for the Dill, took &C.
,asion to say his presidential pro-
ference was buried In the person
ii the lamented Hanna, and bold
y denounced his opposition o
Roosevelt because of his stand on
he race question.

Finley p. Dunno, known TO the
reading world as Mr. Dooley, spent
several months in southern Ore
gon some years ago, looking for
fortune in the shape Of gold
mine. A dispatch from Grants
Pass says that he located a claim
in the gold quartz belt OF south
ern Oregon. Dunno and his part
ner made nothing by the venture,
and departed discouraged, so far
as gold mining was concerned
Dunno declared, There was gold
there, certainly, because we could
not find any" The claim is now
proving a rich proposition having
been adequately developed by a
man coming into possession of it
since Dunno abandoned tie pro-
perty.

singly they are narrow; collective

make immense ore bodies.
The highest value usually oc-
ours nearest the walls. and value
decreases as diLtance from the wall
increases; when the veins occur
in system with parallel fractures
intervening, the water has free &C
cess and the whole mass becomes
changed and is often mined and
shipped for ore.
Taken as a whole the veins of
the district may be properly Glass
ed as assure veins with impregns.
ted ore bodies associated | find
out by experiment and develop
ment work on a number OF veins
in Western Kentucky that these
ore bodies are not continuous but
may be said to occur in the form
of segregated bodies or ohutes,
without form or defined limit; the
conditions demand more thorough
and systematic prosecuting than

When two vein systems inter

for public park purposes that no one
can take such park and use it for pri-
vate business purposes. The erection
Of water works and Of a sewerage sys-
TEN is a public work inasmuch as it is
done and maintained at the public ex-
pense but the control Of the work is
not in the public nor can the general
public interfere other than in the
manner appointed out BY law with
such work or its maintenance; and the
erection Of such works, and the main
tenance Of such works, so far as the
public are concerned, is placed in the
hands Of its servants, the public Off
GERS, and they, while exercising the
powers vested in them by the people,
have control thereof under the law
But the general public, so far as
public park, which has been dedica-
ted to them, is concerned, are possess
ed therein so that no one may invade
or trespass upon their rights, or de-
priye them Of the use Of such park or
any part Of it.
] am of opinion that insofar as this
complaint shows that this is a park,
duly dedicated and that plaintiffs are
residents and taxpayers Of the town
Of Vinita, and that the defendant
city is about TO appropriate and di-
vert the park from its proper and or
dianary use to specific business pur-
pose, that such attempt on its part |
is IAN infringement upon the public
rights in and to said park; and that
such attempt upon its part to divert
the use Of said park to the conduct Of
the business Of said city should be re-
strained Therefore the demurrer is
oyerruled, and defendants are allowed
their exception.
The attorneys for the city were Civ
en- ten days to prepare their answer,
when the question Of making the tenn
porary injunction permanent will be
determined
The bond was fixed at 1000.
