phases OF human emotion. 1t is more
than a play, it is a moral classic, 1t
argues for tao Of the greatest themes
that can engage the mind, human liber-
tn and Immortality 81 the soul. Not.

it is seldom one sees the play as it is
now presented BY MIR. Stetson Colossal,
Spectacular 1t is refreshing to see the
old play IN its natural habilaments once
more. It is like meeting an old friend

Gas in cassylIle.

Our cousins across the Sandy are
really coming out. The iron horse
will soon be snorting at their very
doors, soaring the frogs in Mill
Creek and waking the babies In
Shutdown, and the Standard OIL
Company is to be routed by the
Triple State Gas people. Well, the
good people Of our sister village
will find gas to be a good thing.
It's handy, cheap and clean. Even
II they have coal at their very
doors gas is infinitely the better In
every respect. BY ell means light
your streets with it. Put in a lamp
like ours, which can not be i'm
proved, and have a system OF light
ing which, unlike ours, will furnish
clear steady light.

CHANGE OF TRAINS.
Extension Of Run" to Palntssille
In Effect.

The guessing is all over and the
dream Is a reality. All trains on
the Big Sandy division are now
running into Paintsville. The new
arrangement went into effect yes
terday.
Two passenger trains each way
are now In use, under charge o.
Conductors Meyers and Blevlns.
The latter leaves Paintsville al
5 a. m. daily Except Sunday reach
ing Louisa at 1905 and Ashland al

County Fair.

The Lawrence County Fair will
be held this year early In October
Let all the farmers prepare to bring
exhibits. The officers will attempt
to improve the fair each year. 1t
requires a lot OF work on their part
without any compensation.
There is one point upon which
many OF the people should change
their idea. This Is in regard tC
premiums. Many seem TO think
the only object Is to obtain as largt
premium as possible, for the
value OF the premium itself. The
Fair Association does not and could
not attempt to pay premiums o.
much value, as the money Is raised
by contribution. The object is t
improve farming conditions By
showing the excellent and varied
quality OF products that may b'
! produced in this section by proper
methods and thus stimulate out
farmers to greater efforts. This II
the higher view which we hope Il
see our people take OF this move
mont. All should take an interes
and exhibit some OF their best pro
ducts for the good OF the farming
interests, regardless Of whether o
not they would likely secure pre-
miums.

some able men in the bounds oil

may reasonably expect to heal
some good preaching during thu
session. Our citizens are noted fol
their hospitality, and they will SCI
to 1t that on this occasion thei
