APPEAL TURNED DOWN.

Democratic Candidates Declared night
 fully Successful IN Louisville.
 Louisville, Ky, March 2S-Judges Miller and Kirby today handed down a decision in the contested Louisville city election cases, sustaining the Democratic party and refusing to null lify the 1905 election. by which P. C.. Earth was chosen mayor, except In few unimportant races involving only magistrates and constables.
 The court holds that fraud was prac- ticed in Louisville in the election of 1905, but that 1t was not sufficient to invalidate the election. All the pleas of the fusionists in the principal races are overruled.
 An appeal will be taken to the State court of appeals.

Household Relics

Mrs. H. III. Dimick of this town
has a quilt having quite a history
and is still looking almost as good
as the day it was finished. 1t was
made by her grandmother in 1908,
the y-ar Mrs. Dimick's father was
born. Her grandmother carded
the wool and cotton, did the spin
ming and coloring, and the grand
father did the weaving. The
grandmother gave the quilt to her
son and when he broke up house
keeping, gave it to his daughter,
Mrs. Dlmick. She also has
stand that her mothers father
made for his daughter seventy.six
years ago when she first went to
housekeeping, and which was
given to her, and she in turn when
the evil days draw nigh, will no
doubt bequeath them to her daugh-
ter as precious mementoes to be
kept and treasured in memory of
those who have gone on before.

BOON COMPANIONS
Two Happy Hearts Of Tender Years
C0mf0rted in Holy Bonds
of Matrimony.

At the brides home in Extra,
on Tuesday evening, October Is,
1907, at $50 P. NJ, Rev Richardson
officiating, Mr.. Isaac Stated and
Mrs. Anna Stranger were by the
rites of the Congregational church
declared man and wife, Mrs. Flora
Hensley and Mrs. Dena Stated
being witnesses.
These dear old people have been
residents of Extra for third of a
century. They are we'll known and
respected by host of friends who
wish them we'll. Mr.. Stated is
near the eighty mark while Mrs.
Stranger is near seventy. Their
lonesomeness in life ELECTED the
sympathy of their many friends.
They evidently had been thinking
so too. Cupid whispered as he had
done before and they knew his
voice for it was the second call to
each. Resistance to this marriage
found no com forter with relatives
or friends. A happy future pre-
sentei itself, to which they both
assented.
About an hour after the ceremony
was performed, the news was
spread and in a short time over
fifty men, women and children
focked to that home to charivari
them and extended hearty congrat-
ulations. In their remaining years
of married bliss, the entire town
will guard their existence and with
the poet sing:
Never forget the old folks,
Love them more and more
Let their last days be their best
Till they reach the Golden shore.
