An followed fer the gun,
An Matt, he shet both eyes an fired,
An so the deed was done.

Raw head an bloody bones,"
An from the barn, at night, there

Some awful ghostly groans.
But Matt, he tries to cheer us up
With sickly sorter fun:
81 wonder eff, when he come too,
He knew he had been skun?"

HEAVY TIDE IN RIVER.

The Kentucky river is rising very
rapidly at this point. The almost con-

this way.
Mill men are looking for a good

Last Call.

We have only five Herrick Refrigerators left out of the two shipments and we do not expect to have any more this season. Conse- quently if you want refrigerator that will give you absolute satisfaction, you had bet ter come in right away and let us send one of those Herricks down to you. If, after you have used it thirty days you are not satisfied with it, let us know and we will send and get it and not charge you cent for the exper- ment We believe that this is a fairer offer than you will get from any concern in Pres colt. Besides, the first cost of the Herrick is a very little more than refrigerators that have no claim for any special merit. The cost of maintaining Herrick is quite great deal less than the cost of maintaining others

News From Piney Grove.

Special to the News.
 Piney Grove, June 15.-We had nice rain here yesterday afternoon.
 Health is improving in this community.
 Mr. George Mohons family are all better except Maud Beatty. She is still very sick. They were called on to give up their beloved wife and mother, who died on the morning of June g. Sister Mo- hon was 52 years old. She was a good kind neighbor and lov- ing wife and mother, and her death has caused sorrow and sad ness, not only in the home, but in the whole community. She belonged to Sabbath school and anything that she could do to help anyone in need, she was al ways ready to do. We miss her in our midst. Will and Bessie have been staying with the fami- ly since the sad event. Mr Mo- hon and six of the family were down with the measles at the same time. Our sympathy is with the bereaved family. May God bless them.

The result of these assaults was that a mass meeting of citizens was called and they named J. k. Scott, Jr., chief of police. The mass meeting in body proceed ed to the council chamber where the mayor made the nomination Tn regular form, and the resigna- tlon of MT Clancy having been accepted, tine appointment of Mr. Scott was confirmed. Mr. Scott s first official act was to make a clean sweep of the entire force, according to pledge required of him by the mass meeting. It was also the sense of the mass meeting that a committee of citi- zens investigate the charges made by Mr. Adams.
 Since his enforced retirement from office Mir. Clancy has been somewhat melancholy and ner. yous. At about Il o'clock this morning he walked into the dining room of his residence and shortly afterward two pistol shots were heard. Members of the family rushed to the room where Mir. Clancy was found lying mortally wounded. One bullet went wild, the other entered the left breast just below the nipple and went through his body, emerging at the back.
 The desperately wounded man was attended by Drs. Russwuim, Fink and Horner, who hold out no hopes for his recovery. Mr. Clancy has a wife and three chil dren. One daughter is the wife of Fred King of this city.
