Australian Saved from Penitentary
 Later Did Remarkable Work.

In the gardens attached to the hous- es of parliament, Melbourne, there is an elaborately sculptured fountain, embellished with human figures, birds, flowers and various other ornamental work In stone This fountain has a remarkable history. It was construct ed entirely by convict named Will fam Stanford, within the walls of the Melbourne jail. When a young man of 2l, Stanford, in a weak moment, joined band of bushranging desper- adoes. was captured and sentenced to terms of Imprisonment amounting in the aggregate to 21 years. One day Col Champ. the governor of Melbourne jail, was astonished to find beautiful angelic figure which Stanford had carved out of a meat bone. He showed 1t to the leading sculptor of Melbourne who declared that the young man was a natural genius. The sculptor visited the jail and gave Stanford some les sons in the art. A petition for par don was infiuentially signed. and Stan ford was released. He became one of the most successful sculptors in Mel bourne. and completely lived down his juvenile criminal escapade.

Jerome 3. Ssay Has
Passed AWAY.

Mr.. Jerome B. Seay, one OF the
Oldest and most highly respected citi-
zens of Lexington, died at his home
on upper Main street last Wednesday
morning at the ripe old age OF 70
years. Mr.. Seay had been a patient
sufferer from dropsy since last Christ
mas and the end was not unexpected
to those who had watched by his bed
side during his long illness.
. Mr.. Seav was a brave Confederate
soldier being member of Co. K. goth
South Carolina regiment, and fought
valiantly for the country he loved
during the entire period. He was a
quiet, unassuming gentleman, and
numbered his friends by the score.
He was laid to rest in St. Stephens
cemetery on Thursday morning, the
last sad rites being performed by Rev.
W. D. Hitler of the Luthern church.

Compiaint.

A portion of the Lexington road
leading to Chaplin from Wilber Der
rick's to Mrs. Quilla Derrick's is re-
ported to be in an almost impossible
condition and certainly needs the at
Jtention of the overseer. 1t is strange
that so many people depend upon the
chain gang alone, when little atten-
ton by road joverseers and the hands
would keep the road in good condI,
ton. It really seems that they would
have pride enough to work and have
better roads, especially when they
know the necessity of good public
roads.
