Pointers for our Patrons.

Our rule is the best stock and
best work ior our patrons.
We do not allow any printer to
put out nicer work than we do and
we put the best stock into our jobs.
The difference between poor
stock and first class stock on a job
is a small item when you consider
the value of the job. II is the
price OF a satisfied customer. II is
better to make so cents less on a
job and have customer who will
come back, than to use the flimsy
stock, make the extra so cents and
lose your customer. That is the
way we figure 1t.

NEW MILLINERY.

the back with long trailing vines and bud or so. The morning glory always seemed too prosaic and unmanageable flower to adapt to millinery purposes, but in this hat the whole effect was graceful to a degree. A few hats are faced with velvet, and many are bound around the brim with velvet in some color, but most often black. This throws the trimming out in bold relief, but does not add to the ightness.
 It is understood that just now all the pretty and fetching tub dresses and delicate and filmy fabrics for summer are finished and laid away for con- quest when the warm days shall come. GinghamS are the favorites, and justly popularity yet. They are, as a rule, made simply, as it has been found that such a style is best for many req sons. They have perhaps a few tucks, button down the front, and some of them sport a ruf1le of lace or em- plain band, to which can be affixed any kind of collar, but the high turn down is the best liked. A natty little bow, of any color or material that the owner likes best, Is fastened at the front. Some of the waists have plas- tron yokes stitched down to the waist and trimmed with a little black sou tache braid. The duck and pique and heavy linen ones may have some, but not much embroidery put on, as it is best liked. All the wash waists have regular shirt sleeves, which reach the wrists. Those called lingerie waists may be and generally are lavishly garnished with lace of any kind and in any manner. Sleeves to these waists may be elbow length if thought prefer able. Embroidery of every kind, par ticularly the shadow design, is en- ployed in too many ways to mention, but that and lace will fairly cover most of the summer wear.
 Some of the newest cottons and silk and cotton mixtures are truly beauti- ful. There are check, Zigzags, defined and shadow plalds and any amount of fine and dainty goods and fancy bor- ders in various colors. Dots are scat tered over the surface of some, with more and heavier dots to mark the Greek key design. Some have regular cashmere borders in all those colors on ground of white with black dots. One other had border of blue with coin spots in black and above that an arrangement of dots that look like open embroidery.

killed his mar. he withdrew hastily. knocking away the prop. The trap closed with a bang, and Nolan heard his rival tumtling down the stairs. He felt sure that the trap had struck Harkaway on the head, and if 1t had not killed him his fall doubtless had finished the job. Nolan pulled open the door. crawled down the stairs, pass ed what he believed to be Harkaway's dead body and rushed frantically out of the church. Harkaway had been knocked unconscious, and when he came to himself and thought of the corpse of Nolan lying In the belfry he fled from the place as rapidly as his stunned condition would admit
 The same morning people living along the line of the pike were awakened from their slumbers by the chatter of horses hoofs and swinging sabers, fol- lowed by the tread of men marching and the rumble of cannon. Almost be- fore the citizens could get on their clothes the troops had passed, and soon the booming of guns could be heard be- low.
 "Whar's Dan Harkaway?" asked one citizen of another. "Wonder ef he hain't fell asleep in the belfry."
 Tom Nolan, he was a-watchin that, too" said another.
 When the excitement had quieted down and the sun shCne as peacefully over the undulating plantations as it had set the evening before the two missing men not appearing, a commit tee went into the belfry. Finding the ladder down, the ends greased and blood Grom Harkaway's nose) scat tered over the stairs, they concluded that the two men had been playing each other foul and doubtless one had murdered the other or both had been killed. But what had become of the bodies was mystery.
 Years passed, and neither Harkaway nor Nolan appeared. When a stranger came into the locality he was sure to be treated to the story of the night the Yankees came and the two young men who were watching for them had dis appeared. Whether there had been a mutual murder or the Yankees had carried them off was disputed point.
 During the eighties a camp of Con- federate Veterans was held in the vi cinity, and one day a gray bearded vet stood opposite the church, looking up at the belfry. Another vet came up and asked him what he was looking at. Then two pair of eyes met, and there was q simultaneous:

[Original.1


 On an eminence few miles north of a town in Alabama stands a church with belfry. It stood there during the civil war. In the spring of 1862 Dan Harkaway, a young man whose father was deacon in the church, used to go up into the belfry daily and sometimes on moonlight nights to take a look up the turnpike, which was plainly visible for some miles north ward, hoping to catch the first sight of Yankee troops that wee expected to occupy that region. Harkaway set great store by this vedette system in- vented by hinself and promised to warn his neighDors in time to set their houses in order and put their silver spoons in the well before the arrival of the enemy.
 Harkaway was in love with Nancy Durbin, a girl who found it difficult to decide between him and Tom Nolan. One day Nolan overheard some ne. groes talking together about the prox- imity of the Yankees, some saying that they would come within a few hours. Nolan thought to get ahead of his rival and climbed to the belfry for the pur- pose of being first to see the enemy's approach. Harkaway had placed ladder on the highest floor, to be reach ed through trapdoor. By climbing the ladder one could look out through the top openings Nolan mounted the ladder, and Harkaway, passing below, saw him gazing up the pike.
 Harkaway determined to punish his rival for assuming a privilege that he reserved for himself and that night went up to the befry and greased the ends on which the ladder stood. Nolan thought over the matter of the Yan- kees' approach and concluded that If they occupied the city they would like ly endeavor to surprise it in the early morning before the people were awake. Therefore at the first sign of dawn he entered the tower, intending to watch till after sunrise. He climbed the lad Yankees coming.
 He was about to descend to give the alarm when he felt the ladder slipping away from him. Catching the window slll he clung to it for a few minutes, then dropped, hurting himself severely. The first thing he did after getting his breath back into bis body was to ex- anime the ends of the ladder, finding them greased. At the same moment he heard some one enter the building be- low and knew that Hathaway was com Ing.
 "Ill pay the rascal for this" nut. tered Nolan, and, dragging himself to the trapdoor, be put the prop to the trap In a position that one coming into the belfry could scarcely help knocking it away. Then he lay down on the floor near the wall and waited. Harkaway came up and when his head got above the trap saw the fallen ladder and No Ian lying on the floor. Thinking he had

modes of the last twenty years had been sifted over and at least one hat of each year displayed.
 There is in many of the new hats genuine poetic taste shown-for in- stance, one fine milan braid with the brim bent into becoming curves and angles. but the whole decidedly of the fiat" or Eugenie variety, and ths crown fairly surrounded five deep witb beautiful new leaves of the willow tree all softened with a white frost. This is a lovely hat for a young face. The frosty green above the white of the hat makes very artistic combna- ton.
 Then we find white canvas hat stitched again and again so that the brin remains stiff from the stitching. The brim then is turned up and bent into half dozen curves and back from the face and then topped with pa nache of short but fine ostrich tips shaded from white to baby blue. l should have mentioned that all the stitching is done in blue on the white ground. And back into the sixties some clever milliner has delved to bring forth regular box urban This is of white rice straw, fine and glossy, and it sits far back on the head. The only trimming is tuft of black dues in the form of an aigret, just black and white. with strass and jet buckle to hold the aigret Toques are among the very best and most pleasing of the hea5wear. and of that we find too m21 to tell of in detail. but one, for insS1eSe, was of black chip as to crown. There was drapery of shaded violet silk, and this again had a border of green. Along the front the draped silk was drawn and then twisted into two large and long loops carrying the color and its shades. This for q golden haired girl would be a thing of beauty and joy so long as no one else imitat- ed it.
 Very many of the flat hats are left quite straight and lavishly covered with beautiful flowers. Immense roses are on some of them, smaller ones on others, pansies galore and parma vio- lets for variety. One very poetical hat was arranged so that the brim dropped slightly, as though by its own weight, and around the crown was mass of beautiful velvet morning glorieS in all their exquisite variations, ending in

Morning Times Special.
Washington, d. c., March I4-The
so-called peonage troubles of some OF
the cotton states is attracting much
attention Nor only in the United
States, but in Europe The Northern
press has been especially strong i'll
its denunciation of this system Of
holding for debt The Southern
press, on the contrary, has defended
it as a necessity.
The Italian ambassador, Des
Planches, has been investigating
charges of cruelty and other out
RACES alleged to have been perpetrat-
ed upon Italian immigrants. He has
demanded that the United States in
,vestigete these charges.
Assistant Attorney General Charles
w. Russell, himself Southerner, re-
ports to his department that under
statutes operative in some Southern
states, a laborer who is in debt can
be arrested and returned to his EN-
pltoyer to work out his debt without
process of law.
Several of the Southern states have
followed the example of Alabama,
whose statute books contain the fol-
lowing provision applying specihcal-
ly TO immigrants:
.Any immigrant who abandons or
leaves the servise OF an employer
without repaying all his passage
money and all other advances, must,
on conviction, be fined a sum not
more than double the amount of his
wages for the unexpired term of his
services and imprisoned not longer
than three months, or sentenced to
hard labor for the county for mot
more than three months, at the dis
cretion of the jury"
One unique feature has developed
III the investigation, and that is Mrs
Mary Grace Quackenbos has been ap-
pointed special assistant attorney
general to investigate the peonage
question She is the first lady to re-
eeive such an honor from Uncle Sam
Mrs Quackenbos is meeting with
much opposition in her investigation,
but her clever work is very satisfac-
tory to the department.. and indict
ments are expected to follow.

GOVERNOR SEES NIGHT
RIDERS-BARNS BURNED

Lexington, KY, March I4.-Baffled
by the hostile sentiment of the com
munities, deputies from three coun-
ties are unable to get trace of the
night riders who last night burned
the large tobacco barns on Daytona
Farm. owned by George L. Graddy
of Woodford county, and on Mea
dowthorpe, the farm owned by Mrs.
Elizabeth Pepper, in Scott county;
on the Harris estate, near Midway
owned by George Strange; on the
Tucker farm in Scott county, owned
by Hardin Rogers, and on Capt. Jones
Williams farm at Spring station.
Gov. Wilson beheld the crowd OF
night riders at work With party
OF legislators he went to Lexington
TO the theater They were returning
to Frankfort on the trolley at mid
night. when al McKee's crossing
they passed through a party OF about
fifty masked raiders, who had just
started barn burning in Woodford
county
Grady is a noted thoroughbred
horse breeder. and Mrs. Pepper also
owns a fine string of racers. None
of the horses were injured in the
fires, which were kept away from
the stables.
The band of night riders numbered
sbout fifty All wore masks. They
node swiftly from one place TO the
other, firing revolvers in the air
No tobacco was destroyed at either
place, but as preparations were under
wav for raising of another crop, the
reason for the visit was plain,
The men came from the direction
of Scott county They cut all tele-
phone wires, and the amount of dam
age done is not yet known.
