TO HAVE NEW COURT HOUSE. q

The historic Courthouse at Harrods-
burg will soon be thing of the past.
The grand jury, composed OF twelve
men of the most conservative and sub
stantial men of Mercer county, IN a
rather sensational report to Circuit
Judge Bell condemned the present
county buildings and recommended the
erection of new courthouse. There
is now $40, 900 in the county treasury,
and with little effort it can soon be
built. This famous old building has
been the scene of many celebrated
trials, and bears the ksigns of bloody
personal encounters. The people will
welcome the passing of these memen-
toes and their memories.

he will escape the gallows, he is still think

completed at the county jail at Towson.
