u few days since an application was
made to President Roosevelt for the par
don Of negro in Washington. sentenced
to be hung. but for whom pardon was
asked on the ground Of insanity. In his
reply tho president says:-"Nobody would
pretend that there has ever been any such
degree of mental unsoundness shown as
would make people even consider sending
him to an asylum If he had not committed
this crime" If this rule was observed by
all courts and juries, there would be less
complaint of the failure of justice and less
excuse for mob law. A man who is in
sane enough to commit horrible crime
should not be acquitted on that plea, and
turned loose on society. but confined in
an asylum as long as life should last.

Big Sale of BurlsY Tobacco.

The largest single sale of hurley
tobacco by a farmer or firm of far
mers ever consummated in Central
Kentucky was made March 2 when
Victor F. Zeigler, the Versailles
buyer of the Continental Tobacco,
purchased from Parrish Brothers,
of near Midway, 100000 pounds of
tobacco for an aggregate of over
$40, 900. OF this amount 100000
pounds were sold ateleven and one
half cents, 10000 pounds at ten
cents, and 10000 pounds at nine
cents. Parrish Brothers are the
largest growers of tobacco in Wood
ford county, and their sale the 2nd
represents the crop grown by them
last year and nothing more.

gan February 25, 1900. The same

Quail Pamin.

There will be scarcity of quail
next season in Kentucky.
The unusual winter is the princi-
pei cause OF the expected scarcity,
although the slaughter OF quail out
of season has played its part.
Kentucky has, according to re-
ports been devastated, but one
covey of fourteen quail being seen
in the State.
There has been shipped from
Kentucky $4,000 quail, most of the
birds having been trapped.
The wholesale slaughter is in
itself enough to almost extinguish
any kind of game, but added to it
is the protracted cold weather.
There has been much snow, and
as the snow fell it froze. leaving
the ground covered with ice that
the quail could not penetrate.
They have neither shelter nor
food, and thousands froze and
starved TO death.
Had the birds been able to Sc
cure something to eat they could
have survived the weather, as food
is also fuel sufficient to keep the
birds warm enough to weather even
zero temperature.
In Ohio and other adjoining
States a similar condition prevails,
but probably not to the extent in
Kentucky. The slaughter has not
been so great.

A BOYS soLILoQUY.

1t seems to me, do declare,
The way I'm made is sort Of queer.
I've got two feet to errands run,
And how hate them every one
There's but one mouth to talk and cat,
II there were two and just one feet,
I'd have to hop and be 80 slow
guess they'd never make me go.
You see, then could talk enough,
And twice as many goods things stun.
Two ewes, which teacher says must look
The whole day long right on book.
wei, vnvs enough, ior tnai, i-ar knows,
While round the room the other goes
To keep watch on all the rest,
So two eyes really are the best.
Two ears to constant scolding here;
My, how wish had one ear
And two good noses that could smell
A rabbits track, like dogs can tell.
A lot of teeth that come with trouble,
And when they leave just give you double.
Two hands-well, that's all right,-thougl
sure
To keep them cleans an awful bore;
But one hand wouldn't do at all,
CO uidnt shoot or play at bail;
And in a fight I'd have no show,
And lots of other things, you know.
Take it all round, / do declare,
The way Pm made is mighty queer.
