Local Option In Kentucky.

+ FRANKFORT, KY, Feb. 27.-The
Waggoner bill, which is a local option
law, applying uniformlyto allcounties
in the State, passed the house today
by vote of Is to IA. '
The bill has been the bone of con-
tention in the general assembly ever
since the session began, both Dem
ocrats and Republicans charging each
other with using it as a club in the
senatorial contest. The bill came up
by majority of the Republicans ad-
mitting on the floor that they were
finally ready to vote for it, and join
ed with the temperance Democrats to
bring it out of the committee on pub
lie morals.
The Republicans LOST out on their
final play to have The contest cases
called out in the same resolution
ordering the bill up. The measure
now goes to the senate, where the
sentiment toward it is believed to be
more evenly divided than in the lower
house.

A FORGOTTEN HERO.
Story of a Confederate Soldier Who
Won the Gratitude of Ills
Yankee Foes.

Richard Kirkland, of South Caro-
lima, could trace his lineage to col
onial days. He was quite a young
man when the South seeded and he
became a soldier under the stars and
bars. At the battle of Fredericks.
burg Git was in December) he proved
himself hero. Through the long
winter night he heard the means and
cries of the union wounded. Gen.
Kershaw (the Confederate generaD
was approached and saluted by this
young sergeant, who said: Il cannot
stand it; all night long the Yankee
wounded have been crying for water.
With your permission l will succor
them" The general explained that
no truce existed between the con-
tending forces. Sergt. Kirkland re-
quested the privilege of displaying a
white handkerchief, but the general
would not permit it. Finally this
brave American said: with your
permission l will cross the field un-
armed and without the display of
white, climb over the parapet and
give these wounded Yankees water. y"
The general could not resist that
brave, magnanimous spirit and said:
Sergeant, the enemy is behind yon-
der redoubts with guns ready to have
you forfeit your life, but if you will
20 and may God protect you." With
a bound he was off. The union troops
were amazed at his intrepidity and
when they noticed him raise the
wounded and nourish them they
broke into cheers, and after several
hours of service he returned unharm-
ed to his station to later on lose his
arth-life at Chickamauga by a bullet,
saying to companion: "Tell father
l die doing my duty" His dust re-
poses in a little country grave yard
in South Carolina, a weather-beaten
board at the head Of his grave giving
his name. Sergt. Richard Kirkland
is not seen as "reb," but hero.
Possibly some who read this may
have lain that bleak December day
upon the battlefield and been succor-
ed by him, and this incident, along
with the knowledge of his soldiers
death, his almost unmarked grave,
may induce them to start a move
ment for monument to him, either
where buried or in the capital of our
country. and. with suitable inscrip-
ton thereon relative to his unselfish-
ness of service, have his heroism in
spire all readers. philadelphia Pub

ticians and the tngrattude OF man.
The conspirators had the diamond
mines and good thing all around, but
they were not satisfied with that.
They demanded concession after con-
cession until the people Of the state
began to wonder what would be lett to
them. Their investments profted them
q thousand per cent, but still they
must have more. The baroness and
the new president were almost ignored.
They were made the victims Of sharp
practice. In time they became only
puppets In the hands Of the trust. The
trust could buy assistance and ale
glance outside Of them, and it did SO.
The day came when they practically
controlled the state and defed its peo-
pie. Then came another revolution,
and it was swept out Of power and
made to disgorge, but it had made
millions. The baroness In one way
and other had been plucked OF her
all. She who had engineered the whole
thing had to leave the country as a
steerage passenger, while the ring
sailed away with a full treasury. She
landed one day at Bahia, broken In
health and penniless, and that night
in a cheap lodging house she commit
ted suicide. In overthrowing a re-
public she had accomplished what a
hundred men might have failed to do,
and in trusting to the integrity Of capt.
talists and politicians she had worked
her own downfall. NJ. QUAD.

Gave Birth to Five Children.

STEUBENsv1LLE, OHIO, Feb. 28..-
Five perfectly formed children were
born here today to Mr.. and Mrs.
George Campbell. Three fthe babies
died within an hour after their birth.
One boy and one girl will live, it is
said. Three of the children were
boys. Mrs. Campbell weighs less than
100 pounds. The combined weight
of the infants was % pounds. Physi-
clans declare the case to be one of the
most remarkable known to the pro-
fession.
Campbell, who is a mill worker, has
four brothers. To the family of two
of these twins have been born, and
each of the other brothers is father
of triplets.
Campbell's first wife died after be-
coming the mother of triplets.

Sick of the Farce.

CHARLESTON. Feb. 28.-In the court
of general sessions to-day Judge Hy-
drick disposed of the blind tiger cases by
requesting Solicitor Jervey to bring no
more of the cases up for trial at this
session Of the court, saying that he was
s'sick of the farce"
It is not likely that the matter will be
allowed to drop in this way, but probably
a change of venue will be later asked for
and more determined and systematic
effort made to put the blind tigers out
of business or at least check the trade.
It is also probable that additional In
functions will be issued and steps taken
to make the restraining orders effective.

Home rhssions.

On Thursday afternoon, the first
day of April, 1901, about one dozen
ladies assembled in the Methodist
church to hear Mrs. w. L. Wait on
the home mission subject. Several
attempts had been made to organize
home mission-societ at this place,
but each failed, until this earnest, en-
thusiastic worker for Christ came
among us and told how our efforts
were needed in this cause. Her talk
was most thrilling and appealing, and
its result was the formation of a
society with seven members: Mrs. E..
%. Krsch, president; Mrs. E. J..
Hook, vice president; Mrs. G. F. Bam-
berg, recording secretary; Mrs. j. NJ.
jennings, corresponding secretary;
Mrs. Lena Hook, treasurer. The
other two charter members were Mrs.
H. ]. Brabham and Mrs. B. D. Bron-
son. We had only six meetings dur
ing the first fiscal year, and collected
$4.70, but our president had her heart
thoroughly in this work and the other
officers were encouraged by her ex-
ample and prayer fully we moved on,
gaining in membership and con-
tributions each year.
InsO October, 1904, the annual State
conference met with us, and we were
fortunate in having with US that con-
secrated home mission worker, Mrs.
Mac DonneH, who keeps thoroughly
in touch with the work. Her talks
were inspiring, and caused many
serious and thoughtful heart search
ings as to whether we were doing our
whole duty or not. We received sew
eral new members during this meet
ing, and we all took up our work with
renewed energy, and now at the ex-
piration of not quite seven years we
have collected and paid out for local
and correctional work, 81, ,533. 10, be-
sides visiting strangers, furnishing
nourishment for and taking care of
the sick, and in various ways help
ing the unfortunate. Now, while we
have done well we could have done
better. We must wake up to our
privileges, our blessings. The door
stands wide open, shall we not enter
in? Let us work and pray for mem
bers as never before, and when we
get consecrated women to work for
missions, we will gain the means to
carry on the work.
