Judge Jim on the Stand.

The feature of yesterday in the Brit
ton trial in the Fayette Circuit Court
was the testimony of Judge James
Hargis who is accredited as the chief
tain OF one side OF the fiercest
feuds in Kentucky's history. The wit
ness is called Jim by his friends and
his presence in court indicated that he
is the sort of man who would enjoy a
nickname. His openness of speech and
frankness Of manner bespoke nothing
of a criminal nature but gave the i'm
preston of anxious sincerity to tell all
he knew. But. in fact, he knew moth,
ing but to deny what Commonwealth
witnesses have said And through it
all, it was not hard to detect that the
astute politician from Breathitt was
carefully guarding his own defense, he
also being indicted for completely in

Among The Arabs.

In letter to friend here. Mr.. w.
Rhodes Shackelford, who married Miss
Anna Louise Clay, of this city, and
who has been sojourning in Egypt on
his honeymoon. speaks of his amusing
experiences in attending a meeting of
an Arabic Lodge of Masons IN Cairo.
He was admitted readily enough on his
knowledge of the grip and signs, ETC.,
but the proceedings afterward were
like Sanskrit to him, as the entire cere-
mony was carried on in Arabic. He
was present at an initiation of candid
ates, and says that the procedure is
very similar to that in this country, but
the language of course escaped him.
Mr.. Shackelford stated further that
ne and his wife would start homeward
on April 3. but would make short stops
in Italy and elsewhere.

Results OF The Freeze.

Fruit and early vegetation is having
a hard time of it this year. The cold
spell of last week. while quite severe,
came when everything was exceedingly
dry and best equipped to resist the
frost. While cherries. PEACHES and
other of the most tender fruits were
doubtless considerably damaged it was
thought that much of the crop had es-
capped. But this will not help us much
now as we had another white frost
Thursday morning with conditions
favoring the destruction Of all fruits
which had escaped the former freezes.
From the present indicate the fruit
crop in this State is about gone.

1 REACHFD UNDER THE BOAT.

" the boat had imprisoned a lot of
air, and the rising water had held it.
The bottom and sides of the boat were
both air and water tight. Jock had

ton more comfortable. There was Il
good six inch space for the head, and
/ could rest my elbows under the seat
Of the boat 1t was all a question now
Of whether there was sufficient air to
support the two of us for half an hour
or less. By that time, / judged, the
tide would turn and we could crawl
out.
The water could not rise up higher
under the boat on account of the i'm
prisoned air, but our breathing steadily
exhausted the oxygen of the latter and
added TO our discomfort
My nerves grew tense and snappy,
and my senses began to reel. Jock,
too, ceased to bark aud whine A great
sluInber appeared TO possess us. How
to judge, but when my head seemed

There was moment of sputtering and
gasping and then deep breath Of

through my whole body.
The tide had turned. and there was
space enough under the dock to live
and breathe in comfort. filled my
lungs until they ceased their painting.
Then, remembering Jock, reached IN
der the boat and hauled his nearly life
less body up to the fresh air.
When the tide fell low enough for us
TO crawl upon the bottom Of the boat
flung myself at full length on it and
rested. Jock spread himself out by my
side ready as. ever to rest and sleep.
Later I examined the high level Of
the tide under the dock and found that
the water had come up to within half
an inch Of the boards No man could
have lived there and had not Jock
found the fresh air under the boat

But Jock doesn't pose rs a hero. and
I'm nor saying that be is one. but you
