The American Adder.

A full-grown adder may measure
two feet in length and about six inches
around the thickest part OF its body.
It's movements are sluggish, and OF
course the universal idea prevailing
among the natives of this country that
1t is capable of transferring its head
from one extremity to the other once
every six months is due simply to SUI
perstition. The fact is that the tan Of
this snake does not terminate in a
point as with ophidians generally, but
is stumpy and resembles the head SO
much that it is difficult for an OBJ
server situated at distance Of a few
yards to distinguish the one from the
vsher, hence the story OF its being two
headed, the fallacy of which no intelli-
gent observer could fail to detect

The Sunny South.

Now when all outdoor farm work
has ceased in the north, the term
sunny south" and all that it means,
appeals with full force to the northern
farmer as he realizes that with him
it is a case of remaining indoors for
the next several months consuming
everything that has been produced
during the growing season. In the
sunny south" something can be
raised every month in the year, and
practically every day can be spent out
doors. No billiards.. No sunstrokes.
Cattle-raising is very profitable. Large
profits are made with little labor in
growing fruits, vegetables. ETC., for
northern markets. Strawberries and
cantaloupes are great revenue getters.
Water unsurpassed. Work plentiful.
Lands cheap and productive. For re-
liable information. address G. A. Park,

MUST GUARD THE TRADEMARK.
cubans Register Them and Demand
Royalties from Owners.

Americans who seek to do business
in Cuba are confronted with peculiar
variety of peculation-appropriation OF
trademarks. The department of com
merce and labor issues a warning to
all manufacturers who have any
thought OF exporting goods to Cuba.
If they do not Immediately register
their trademarks, others will.
Spectators are using the trade,
marks of popular American goods, and
the manufacturer OF the genuine arti'
Gle when he enters the Cuban market
finds himself compelled to buy out the
speculator IL he wishes to market his
VI res under the proper name. When
the Spectator registers trademark
he has a hold on the American manu-
facturer, and he may demand and col
lect any price.
In some instances spectators hold
ing the Cuban rights to bridesmaids
Of American manufacturers have com
PEELED the manufacturer TO pay them
a royalty.
1t is therefore essential that Ameri
cans protect themselves by paying the
$3.50 required for registration and
thus prevent the confiscation OF their
trademarks.

COURT ORDERS
That Mayor Vickers Recognize J. D. Sorry
as Councilman.

Yost & Laffoon, attorneys for
Councilman j. d. Sorry filed a
petition in the circuit court Fri
day asking that a writ Of man.
damus be issued against l. N.
Vickers, mayor of Maids )nville,
to compel him to recognize the
plaintiff as the councilman from
his ward.
The petition recites the fact
that plaintiff was duly elected
and qualified as councilman, and
that he had been serving as such
since December last, and that no
question as to his eligibility had
been raised by thecity council or
any member thereof, but that
Mayor Vickers had arbitrarily
ordered the city clerk to refuse
to recognize plaintiff as a mem
Der of said council.
Ten days notice was given
Mayor Vickers to answer the pc
tition, when plaintiff asks for an
absolute mandamus against the
mayor to prevent further inter-
ferences with his rights, but
pending this ten days he asked a
temporary restraining order
against the mayor, which was
granted by the court.
This action of CouncilmanSory
will bring up the question of his
eligibility before the courts, and
May 30 is the day set for the
hearing before Judge Gordon in
the circuit court room.
In the meantime, under the
order of the court, Councilman
Sorry will continue to exercise his
rights as a member of the city
council.
A special meeting of the coun-
Gil will be held Saturday night to
consider the application of Lee
Cazort for saloon license and

SUNDAY MORNING FIRE
Burns the First House Built at
the Opening Of EarlinstOn's
Mines.
PROPERTY OF TWO
FAMILIES DESTROYED.

The first house built in Earl
ington, at the time coal mining
in Hopkins county had its be-
ginning, was burned Sunday
morning about nine o'clock. The
house was built for a boarding
house and was located near the
opening of No. IL mine of the
St. Bernard Coal Co., the first
commercial coal mine ever
opened in Hopkins county. 1t
was built in 1870 under contract
by the late John Osburn, of
Madisonville, and among those
who worked with HIM on the
job were Isaiah Fox, of Earling-
ton, recently deceased, an d
Floren Simons, of Madlsonville.
The lumber in the house was
sawed by Felix McEuen, father
of Thos McEuen, Of this place,
and j. V. McEuen, of st.
Charles, at his mill then located
between No. IL raine and Hecla.
Mr.. McEuen has been dead some
years.
AT the time this house was be-
Ing built ID. w. Umstead was
helping to frame the timbers for
the first No. ii tipple. This was
the first job Mr.. Umstead worked
on for the st. Bernard Company,
starting as he did on the first
construction planned. The tim
bers were framed in the bottom
between No. 8 mine and Hecla,
the work being done under con.
tract with the late Frank Bour-
land, OF Madlsonvllle. q
The first landlady to run this
pioneer boarding house was Mrs
Germaine, a French widow, who
presided over the house for sew
eral years. During her residence
here Mrs. Germaine married
Zack Richards, then a miner in
the employ of the st. Bernard
Coal Co. Mr.. Richards after
ward bought a good farm In the
Charleston country, where both
are still living and doing we'll.
The destruction of the old
land mark of early mining opera
tions here naturally put the old
er citizens in a reminiscent mood
and brought out the details re-
lated above. Among other things
was the story of an almost fatal
injury inflicted on one of our old
citizens at the building of the
first No. IL tlpple. Robt. w.
Wood helped to raise this tipple.
One of the bents fell, striking
him on the shoulder, a glancIng
blow, and brushing him out of
the way. He escaped death by
but few inches and was dis
abled several weeks.
The old two story house was
occupied at the time of the fire
by two colored men, Geo. Will
liams and Jno. Mccain, with
their families. The fire origi.
mated in the side occupied by
Williams, which was closed up
at the time, the family having
gone visiting after breakfast.
That half of the house was Quilted
by flames before the fire was dis
covered by the family in the other
half, and the latter were just
able to get themselves and a very
few belongings out. The loss of
household effects amounts to
about 5000 for each family. Two
smaller houses are 10 be built at
once on the old site.
