Miss. and the ears stopped for short time at Clinton. Among the crowd who pressed forward was one vigorous old man who insisted that Mr. Clay would recognize him. He had lost one eye.
 Where did 1 know you?" asked Mir. Clay. fixing a keen glance on this man.
 Tn Kentucky" was the reply.
 Had you lost your eye before then, or have you lost it since?" was the next question.
 Since answered the old man.
 Turn the sound side of your face to me so l can see your profile" said Mr. Clay peremptorily. and the man obey ed. '.I have it." said Mr. Clay after moments scrutiny Of the profile. Didn't you give me verdict as juror at Frankfort. Ky, in the famous case of the United States versus Innis twenty -one years ago?'
 "Yes, sir!' cried the e.d man. trem- bling with delight.
 And isn't your name Hardwicke?' queried MT. Clay after another min ute
 "I told you he'd remember me" cried the old man, turning to the crowd. "He never forgets face; never for gets face!'

Committees Appointed to Devise
Ways and Means-Prospective Sites.

At the meeting of the board of trus-
church OF this city, Friday night pre-
liminary plans were made for the for
nation Of building fund for new
church, which will cost at least S25.-
OO0 A full membership Of both board
and session was in attendance and the
meeting was in every way an enthus-
iastic one. President John Bell. of the
board of trustees, acted as chairman
of the meeting, and C. A. Newcomer
secretary.
For some reason or another, best
known to themselves, the members OF
the board and trustees claim, 1t was
decided not to make public any of the
plans. Officers, when sought by tue
T.-R. for information concerning the
meeting, declared that there was abb
solutely nothing to give out. President
Bell was out of the city today, and
Secretary Newcomer refused to talk,
saying that as yet the SITUATION was
not Of public interest.
At the Friday night meeting commit
tees were appointed by the chairman,
the members OF which will devise ways
and means to build the new church. An
other committee was appointed to as
certain the cost of the different mod
els of modern church structures. The
Presbyterians will not be satisfied with
anything less than u $4,000 church.
and will try to put even more than that
into the new building.
Wilton Will Give $4,000.
Mr.. George Whitton, of Whitton &
Whitehead, one OF the prominent MEM
bers of the church, has promised that
he will give $4,000 to the building fund,
provided the church to be built will en-
tail an expenditure of at least 900.
The fact Of the gift was made public
at the Friday night meeting, but the
name of the donor was not mentioned.
Members Of both the board and ses-
sion claim that they do not know who
the donor is.
Several Sites in View.
The general opinion, among the
board and session is that the present
property of the church is too valuable
a piece Of ground to be used for church
purposes land that 1t will be demand
ed for business building purposes with
in the next few years. Accordingly
the church is casting about for a suit
able location, several of which have
been offered ard are available. Under
consideration as a possible site for the
new church are the northwest corner
of Main and Third streets, the Burkarl
property; northeast corner Of State
and First, the Mcbride property, also
the MAIDEN lots, across the street west;
the Humlong corner, Center and State,
directly across the street north from
the public library, and the East prop

There will be no corn growing con-

could be secured. The seed corn ut the

and 1t is good and tested well for germ
nation, was not thought to be of high
