Remarkable Statistics of EduCa-
finn

According to statistics carefully
compiled by the National Bureau
of education it thus appears:
a. That a boy with a common
school education has but one chance
{ in 5000 to win eminent distinction in
life.
o. That high school education
gives the boy % chances in 5000 to
win eminent distinction.
g. That a college education adj
ded gives the young man 800 chances
in 5000 to win eminent distinction.
These facts forever settle the
question: Does education pay?"
The only question left for young
men and women to decide is, What
school shall | attend and when?"
We answer, Hartford College is the
school and now the time. This In
stitution numbers among its former
students, scores of prominent
doctors, lawyers, ministers and bus
mess men; while hundreds have
gained prominence in the trades, in
dustries and other fields of useful
ness. 1t turned out about 40 teach
ers this year, and fully two-thirds of
the teachers of the county are its
former students.
The Business Department is up to
date in every respect, and the work
covered is identical with that of reg
ular business colleges. Our gradu-
ates are thorough in their work, and
have no trouble in holding positions.
Students enter at any time and re-
ceive individual instruction. We
can also give you a course by mail in
shorthand, which is an excellent
preparation for one who has not
time to enter school now.
First Term Opens Sept. 3, 1906.
Third Term Opens Jan. IA, 1907.
Expenses are as low or lower than
in any other frst-class Institution.

Oh! dear parents weep not for S he

heaven.
Dear parents live so that when you
come to die you may meet little

No.. l

the County Court Clerk list of the
delinquent taxpayers or fails to coll
ect the amount of the tax warrant
shall be liable on his bond for the
amount of tax due from any delin-
quent taxpayer which he fails to
certify to the County Clerk and
thirty per centum penalty thereon,
in each instance to be recovered by
motion in the County Court of the
County in which such delinquent
should have been certified to the
County Clerk, or the tax arrant is
sued.".
The act further provides that it
shall be the duty of the County At
torney to prosecute the Sheriff for
any failure under these provisions.
The cost of these tax warrants will
be considerable and hardship upon
the taxpayers to pay, but under the
law it makes it my duty to report
the delinquents to the County Clerk
and will be compelled to do so UNI
less the taxes are paid on or before
the First day of November, 1906.
In view of these acts must insist
upon the payment of the taxes at
once. You are therefore, urged to
pay your taxes at once and save. the
extra cost and expense that will be
added if you fail to pay.
Yours very respectfully,
R. B. MARTIN,
Sheriff of Ohio County, Ky.

LINCOLN BIRTHPLACE.

Home Near HOdgensvilIe.
Farm to be Transformed Into a
Beautiful Park and Interest
ing Relics Perpetuated.

While in attendance at the Repub-
lican Convention. which met in
Hodgensville, July 10, 1905, it was
my very great pleasure to accept
an invitation from Mr.. Thos. b.
Kirkpatrick tvvisit the Lincoln farm.
1t is situated two miles South of
Hodgensville, the county seat of La
Rue county. The country around Is
rolling and dotted with numerous
lakes and pools. 1t is now in high
state of cultivation. The farm has
a gentle undulating surface awaiting
Only the touch of the landscape
ysrdner to make its picturesqueness
complete.
Through the effort of Mr. Kirk
patrick. the early home of Lincoln
has been brought into national at
tention, and sentiment has arisen
over the country asking that 1t be-
come a National Park.
About a year ago the farm was
sold at public sale at the Court
House in Hodgensville. 1t was
bought by 7. +. Collier, proprietor
of Golfers Weekly, for $500. I'm

tion is receiving voluntary contribu-

auditorium capable of seating ten
thousand people. This auditorium
is to be used by representatives of
the North and South in the discus
sion of great economic questions.
and as a meeting place for great
representative bodies. Many other
buildings, including hotels, will be
erected. The landscape will be
changed to give it the most artistic
effect without blotting ont the old
land marks. A guard is kept con-
stantly on watch at the farm to pre-
vent the Dissertation of the grounds
and shrubry by relic hunters.
While sitting on one of the founda
ton stones of the cabin" | could
not but marvel at the greatness of
the infant who first heard the birds
song and beheld the golden sunlight
i1this isolated place, and when |
meditated on the universal homage
that is now paid him. realized that
to be cold, and speechless in death
is not to die. His life and works
live on and on in the hearts of mil
lions of free and grateful people. So
long as honesty Of purpose, kindness
of heart and true manhood are held
as cardinal virtues, so long will the
name of Abraham Lincoln stand out
in bold relief among all the great |
who have trodden the Western Con-
tinent. His greatness is destined to
increase as the ages roll on, and his |
name will ever be an inspiration
wherever the English language is
spoken. j. M. d.

A bloody race war between the whites
and blacks is being fought at Leonard,
Ky. Three white persons-one wom-
an-have been killed and several negroes
have been wounded. The authorities
are unable to control the situation, snd
further bloodshed 10 feared. Bands OF
armed negroes psraded the streets satnr-
day night and came into frequent clashes
with the whites. Several assaults we're
committed in the outskirts OF Leonard,
and on Saturday pitched battle was
fought in the town. Trouble between
the whites and blacks has been brewing
for sometime Disorders we're rrecIpi.
tsted Saturday night, when several
drunken negroes made remarks about a
white woman, who was walking slong
the street. Street fights followed, and
tie town authorities we're unable to quell
the disorders. The State troops will
probably be asked for.
