He married Miss Bruton of our
city. At the convention we met
Mrs. Minogue, but did not see him
during our stay.
THE CYCLONE.
The second story front of j. H..
Minogue's brick residence was
blown in, the furniture demolished
and other damage done. Mrs. M.
who was at home did not know of
it until informed by a neighbor.
Their loss is supposed to be about
$500.
The roof Of a building adjoining
the Christian Church and owned
by the congregation was partially
torn off.
Other buildings were damaged.
The public school building now
being erected reminds one of city
set on hill.
We stopped between trains IN
Paris.
On Thursday night banquet
was given in the church parlor by
Rev. Carey E. Morgan, pastor Of
the Christian Church to the male
members of the congregation, and
many others. The ladies furnish
ed the supper but none of them
were in the banquet room.
The Kentuckian-Ci Citizen says:
All of the $50 guests are enthu-
siactic in their praise of the splen
did hospitality exemplified on that
occasion. The handsome edifice
was appropriately decorated.
Toasts were responded to by Mr..
Ashby j. Elliot, of Peroia, Ill, Mr..
McLaclan, of Richmond, and Elder
Burris A. Jenkins, of Lexington,
and the pertinent, witty and inter-
esting remarks kept the guests in
the utmost good humor.
A noticeable feature of the gath
ering was that it was entirely non
sectarian, the Catholic and all the
Protestant churches being literally
represented.
Probably no previous social
feature of any Paris church was so
unanimously pronounced a distinct
and eminent success.

MISCELLANEOUS.

The new Methodist Church is
nearing completion. 1t is very
attractive, modern, up to date
stone structure with stained glass
kwindows. The new Presbyterian
Church which will be completed
during the summer is of stone, and
it too will be beauty.
Few, if any, small towns or
cities in Kentucky will have church
buildings as attractive as the four
of Carlisle: Baptist, Christian,
Methodist and Presbyterian.
Col. Craddock was there.

FEARS A JOKE LOSES PET.
Actress Selma Herman, the Victim of
Hoax. Gives Away Song Bird.

Like all actresses Miss Selma Her
nan. who last year was leading lady
al one of the local theaters, has num-
Der of pets. One of these pets,
beautiful canary bird, was the con-
slant companion of the young actress
ur to a month ago, when in some
mysterious manner the songster dis
appeared. leaving an empty cage anG
a sorrowing actress to mourn her de-
parture. The circuit of theatSrs in
the states, through which Miss Her.
ran and her production travelled were
notified and a. score of theatrical
dressing-rooms were searched for the
missing bird. In each case the act
ress received the same reply, which
was to the effect that the there was
no trace of the yellow-feathered pet.
Last Wednesday, however, a stage
hand found it necessary to move one
of the stage trees of the Academy and
was mystifed to find bright little
canary bird hopping among the.
branches of the scenic fixture. The
Bird which apparently had been arous-
ed from a sleep by the stage hand
signified his pleasure by bursting into
a song.
The sweet sounds from the bird
were heardout in the office of the thea
ter and attracted the attention of the
manager, William Roche, who with
the aid of three stage hands and after
climbing among the ropes and scenery
attachments OF the lofts above the
! stage made a captive of the little
bird. Roche Immediately telegraph
ed Miss Herman, telling her that the
missing pet bad been found.
Meanwhile a joking theatrical man
ager had sent Miss Herman a turkey
with letter asking her if this was
her pet and Miss Herman not to be
caught in joke a second time an
swered Roche's telegram by saying
that she had found her pet and tell
ing him that he had better keep the
bird that he had caught on the stage.
Manager Roche Immediately bought
a fine new cage for the little song bird
and has set the cage in his office
where he sits hour after hour listening
to the melody of the canary which
came into his possession so unexpect-
edly. He has christened the songster
Joker" and says the laugh is on Miss
Herman.

full pulse of his song. the single-mind-
edness of his artistic purpose mark
MIN not so much as one who chose his
art as one who was chosen by it.
Writing from Winchester, Aug. %

INTERESTING NEW DEPARTURE

Chicago's new freight tunnel is real
ly more daring venture for the in
vestment of capital than New York's
great passenger subway.
The New York tunnel is a great en-
cheering feat, but as a financial
proposition its way has always been
clear. The vast demands for quick
transit north and south on Manhattan
island were certain to tax the carry
ing facilities of the subway and bring
the company an enormous gross reve-
nue.. The Chicago proposition must
yet prove its feasibility by competi-
ton with surface handling of mer-
chandise, coal and refuse.
The Chicago tunnel loop. WHICH has
been under way for three years with
out attracting much attention. is
planned to serve business houses of
every character along its route. Sunk
to depth of twenty-five feet below
ground, it will receive and discharge
freight into embellishments used bv
stores and factories as depots. l.
will bring in coal. Of which 1000. 00)
tons are now burned yearly within
the loop, and will haul out ashes and
rubbish. 1t will carry merchandise
and manufactured articles in and out
OF the city by the underground route.
This great enterprise. built at a
cost of $10,OO0,G0O, is forced to com
pete in freight handling with the
present system of surface hauling.
There is little demand for rapid tran
sit in hauling freight. and the new
system must prove itself more eco
nomical in order TO gain and hold the
business.

Owing To a continuation of large
crops for a number of years past in
Brazil "the worlds visible" reached
the maximum November !, 1850, 900
bags. The crop of Rio and Santos
for the last five years averaged H.
$1,000 bags and the same crop for
the last ten years averaged $500, 900
bags. During these periods the
crops of other than Rio and Santos,
usually known as 'milds. averaged
000. 600 bags. The worlds con-
sumption for the last ten years aver
aged 100000 bags and for the last
FIVE years 15.3S4.o00 bags. Some
claim the worlds consumption to
have reached 16,500.000 bags. but the
deliveries on which it is compute
have reached 100000 bags but once.
The Brazilians have very materially
increased their coffee production, but
the increase that may have occurred
in Mexico and the United States OF
Colombia is offset by a decrease else
where, notably in the East Indies.
