JUDGE ALBERT s. BERRY DIES.

The sad news came to this city, on
Tuesday morning, that Hon. Albert
s. Berry, Circuit Judge of Campbell
county. had died suddenly at his
home in Newport, on Monday, of
pneumonia.
Judge Berry had served in the
State Legislature from Campbell
county, in Congress from the Sixth
Congressional District and was cir
cult judge when he died.
He was an able and astute lawyer
and politician, and genial gentle
man.
He was warm friend of Frankfort,
and did all he could for the perma.
nent location of the Capitol here, and
for the Improvement of the Kentucky
river.
He will be greatly missed.

TO OUR FRIENDS.

Announcement having been made
in the last issue of this paper that
the entire plant of Mr.. George A.
Lewis, including the Roundabout, has
changed hands, feel it is due the
patrons of the paper that they be in
forntod as to the policy of the new
management, which has been incor-
porated under the name of "The
Frankfort Printing Company"
Oneeof the first changes effected
will be the changing of the name
and style of the Roundabout. The
paper will continue as weekly, but
will be changed from five to a
six column paper. An effort will be
put forth to make it one of the best
weeklies in the State, and the
farmers in this and other counties
will be given the latest and most up
to-date farm news.
1t is the purpose of the new man
agement to publish one of the best
afternoon papers in the State. This
paper will be started within the next
few weeks. or as soon as the proper
arrangements can be made, and those
subscribers of the Roundabout who
desire to change from the weekly to
the daily will be made special offer
in due time.
1t is the further intention of the
company to continue the publication
of the Kentucky Law Reporter in an
improved form, and new machinery
will be installed so as to enable the
company to carry on a large print
ing and binding business.
The names of the new daily and
weekly will be given in the next issue
of this paper, and the management
hopes to be running in full force
within the next few weeks. The
company takes this occasion to assure
the public that its publications will be
first class in every respect, and that
all business entrusted to it will be
transacted with promptness and in a
business-like manner.

POWERS CASE ENDED.
After Eight Weeks OF Hard-Fought
Battle Jury Fails to Agree.

After legal battle of eight weeks,
the trial of Caleb Powers, charged
with being accessory TO the assassina-
ton of William Goebel, was con-
cluded on Saturday last at noon, by
the discharge of the jury, who had
failed to agree, standing 10 to in
favor of acqiital.
The arguments of the attorneys
lasted from Monday morning until
"wednesday evening.
Judge Morris then instructed the
jury. to take the case and to be
doubly careful not to let anything
that might occur in their delibera-
tons become public, and also in
structed the sheriff not to allow any
one to hold anyHHprt of communica-
ton with the jury
Notwithstanding these, precautions,
rumors began to gain credence that
the jury had disagreed and stood as
it was finally given out, in a few
hours after they had gone to their
room.
OF course, on Friday, when they
came into court and Informed the
Judge that they could not make a
verdict, actual demonstration was
given TO that fact.
The Judge sent them to their
rooms twice and urged them to agree.
Finally allowing them to make their
last report at few minutes to IL
o'clock Saturday.
Great Disappointment was felt by
both sides because of this mistrlal
Powers attorneys at once applied
for bail for their client and made
argument to that effect, but Judge
Morris declined to grant the motion,
and remanded the prisoner to the
Scott county jail. His attorneys then
moved for an immediate new trial,
which was likewise refused, and the
case set for trial again on Monday,
July 9th.
The attorneys then filed petition
with Gov. Wilson asking that their
client be given a pardon.

Cairo, he went for a stroll one morn

Englishman wearing the ribbon Of the
Indian Mutiny on his breast. h duke

time. Presently h man said, not
knowing, Of course, TO whom he was
speaking: Are you in the army, then,
yourself, sir?" The duke smiled and
admitted that he was. Getting on all

A New Artificial Fertilizer.

From the Consular and Trade Reports.
Consul w. II. II. Webster, of Mag
ara Falls, Ontario, makes the following
report on the establishment of a fac
tory for the manufacture OF ~cyanamide
and lime nitrogen:
One OF the man industries In this
growing city is the manufacture OF
cyanamide. Coke and lime are used in
the manufacture of cyanamide by
means of an electric furnace, the re-
sulting compound being in turn pulver-
lied and combined in a second electric
furnace with nitrogen from the air Sc
cured by a liquid air process. The ma
terials thus obtained contain 20 per
cent in weight of nitrogen, the bal
ance being the o X and lime compound
which serves to bind the nitrogen.
This compound Is calcium cyanamide
or lime nitrogen. n when sown In
the soil ii decomposes and dissolVes
in contact with the soil moisture, is
then absorbed through the roots OF
the plants and becomes a valuab con
stituent. Three years of actual use up
ON farms I'm Europe has proved the
value of this substance in connection
with the wheat, corn, oats, barley. rye,
rice. tobacco and other crops. Some
crops have been doubled by it's use.
