Before and After.

For twelve months before they were
married She never Went down town

one block he always managed TO be
waiting for her on the corner, smil-
ing like an oyster on the half shell.
If she carried q package as weighty
as a spool Of thread he took il from
her by force, for fear sine would
break a handspring. He wanted to
call on her every night and would
have done so if her father had been
dead. He just simply existed and
that was all, when out of her pres
ence. He was so considerate for her
feelings lie never went near her af-
ter taking a drink until ne had
Thoroughly Overhaulod and deodorized
his breath. Twelve months after that
they married, and if he saw her down
town, he durted in screen door 10
keep her from seeing him. He saw
her pass by with heavy bundle, bus
he never went out and offered TO
carry the load. Perhaps it was bet
Ter because he was already loaded

WORK ON LINCOLN
farm HAS begun
A Civil Engineer is Making Prep
arati0n for Early Work on
the Construction.

The first actual work on the i'm
provements at the Lincoln Farm were
begun yesterday afternoon says last
Thursdays Larue County Herald.
On yesterday mornings train Mr.. W
F. Kemp, civil engineer of Louis
vile arrived here under the employ Of
the Lincoln Farm Association for the
purpose of doing wrok on the Lin
coin Farm. The work which he is
commissioned to do at the present
time is to lay off eight acres of the
west end of the farm into squares 20
feet by % feet, giving all the eleva-
tons and the nature of the soil to
the depth of fifteen feet at different
points of the eight acres.
The land thus embraced will include
the site for the museum at one end
and the monumental shaft at the 9th
err Between the two there will be
built the walk and driveway connect
ing the two. The object of learning
the nature of the soil underneath is
TO ascertain how deep they will have
to go to secure the foundation for
the museum building. II is the inten-
ton 10 go down until solid rock is
met with, as the weight of the build
ing, will require very solid foun-
dation.
Mr. Kemp was not informed the eX-
act date of the beginning Of the work
of construction, but ii is known that
it will begin as soon as the material
can be got ready for shipment here,
nearly all the MARTIAL for the build
ing to be brought in.

Women Who Wear Well. 4,

1t is astonishing how great change a
few years Of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition OF many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, a faint echo
OF the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain Is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form of its
fairness.

PEONAGE PRACTIC-
ED In KENTUCKY
Suit for $4,000 Filled on
Account of Alleged Bondage
William Madison Claims he Was

sthe defendants willfully deliberate
Ny and maliciously held him in peo-
mage, and on various occasions, with
out cause, brutally beat him with clubs
and on one occasion shot him three
times.
The plaintiff alleges that from time

Der of men, in attempting to escape,
were shot, one man being MANNED

to Beattyville,a distance of eight miles
but was followed by negro guard,

fle, was compelled 10 return and re-
sumo his labors. He also alleges that

the instinct of the soldiers

by the author to show that to Par

of having saved the army of Gen.

fatal pursuit:
DR.. Hale says: The battle Of Get
tysburg was won by boys whose ages
averaged 23." We call those men.
On the Southern side battles were
lost or won by boys averaging 16 Of
ficers of hight rank from IL 10 24-so
nobly fought that Gen. S. d. Lee,
addressing Parker's boy battery after
an engagement in which they had
distinguished themselves, said: You
are boys, but you have gone this day
where only men could CO." The re-
treat from Gettysburg was covered al
one point by two guns of that battery
which retreat had begun. A Confed-
crate officer rode up to Capt. Parker
and demanded why he did not go. He
replied that he had no order from
competent authority to do so. Re
ceiving this order that little battery
retired slowly, following the regiments
which were leaving the field in good
order, their officers walking back
ward step by step, face TO foe. His
tory presents no other such picture. a
United States officer stated afterward
that his force was prevented from
pursuing and attacking the retreating
army by this battery as no one would
have supposed it could have been
left in that position without strong
support.

COUNTY SCHOOLS
CLOSE FOR SUMMER
Teachers Will Not Go Away for Vaca-
tions, as They Will Assist in En-
tertaining Delegates to N. E.
A. Convention

These are the days of unalloyed JOY
for the small boy, for from all over the
county there comes a noise like the
closing of books and for at least four
months his dreams will be free from
problems of the three RS.
AT many of the district schools the
closing exercises were held yesterday,
and before sundown tonight the rest
will have followed suit.
Many a childish heart will be made
glad today when the term reports of
fair, or better still, excellent ranks, they
will wend their way homeward to
break the joyous news to astonished
and admiring mammas and papas.
Then, of course, there will be a few
sad ones, happily very few in compari-
son to their numerous happy school,
mates, who have failed to attain the
coveted ranking marks, and to these
will be extended advice and sympathy
galore.
But by tomorrow, and surely by Mon
day, when school time ought to arrive
and doesn't, even this most poignant of
grefs will have been forgotten in the
pleasures of vacation days.
Among the teachers of Los Angeles
county not many trips afar off have
been planned, for this will be their
summer at home, to help receive and
entertain the great army of pedagogues
that will come to attend the convention
Of the National Educational association.

Denies Story

Police Commissioner H. B. Woodill
created some excitement at the Mason
opera house last night when he sought
to force the recognition of his star.
According to Will Wyatt the police
commissioner approached the box Of
flee and bought one ticket for woman
with him, announcing he would gain
admission on his star.
81 told Mr.. Woodill 1 would gladly
recognize the customary request Tor
tickets if properly issued by Mr.. Har-
per-" said young Wyatt last night.
"Mr. Woodill said the request was not
necessary and demanded admission on
his star. I told him inasmuch as his
mission was one purely OF pleasure ne
could not gain admission that way.
"Mr. Woodill bought ticket for the
woman with him and after more talk
declared he would demand recognition
Of his star at the door.
eff you don't treat me right down
here I'll make it hot for you,' the police
commissioner said in sWaggerins
manner.
"Do you mean that as threat"
asked.
"'Take it as you like said the police
commissioner.
"I told him if he entered he would
have to force his way past the ticket
taker and would have to take the con-
sequences.
"Woodill pushed past the ticket taker
when that official was busy and gained
admission to the lobby.
1T was a most unusual proceeding.
If the police commissioner will come
to the Mason at any time on official
business he will be given access to all
parts of the house.
1T am acting under instructions When
I refuse to recognize stars under such
circumstances and have referred tne
case to my father"
Commissioner Woodill said after the
performances:
"Oh, it is a small matter. l thought
