Here you find an ambitious, energet-

the laudable task of maintaining and
still further building a greater Mt.
Sterling. Mt Sterling today is en-
tending its trade into still wider fields
and has a prestige as a wholesale ana

a city possessed of every modern ad-
vantage. excellent water supply, splen-

finest turnpikes in the State winding
their way in every direction and lead
ing the way into every prosperous
community contiguous to our own.
Then, the great c. & o. system affords
the very best facilities for travel and
Transportation to all points, which has
greatly accelerated our rapid growth
as a commercial town.
From the main line of the c. o.
the Ky. & S. R. r., branch line
threads its way into the mountainous
region to the south of Mt. Sterling
where vast supply of coal, lumber
ties and slaves find means of trans
portation and a ready market to oul
city. Added to this, we have a wealth
of interests, which have made ours
city of note as a great distributing
point.
These interests are large and va

Mt. Sterling lies ninety miles west of

ply of fine live stock, consisting of ex-
port cattle, hogs and sheep, which
from our well-equipped and favorably
located stock yards, large shipments
of these are constantly being made,
adding materially to the fame of Mt.
Sterling and Montgomery county as a
great live stock center as well as a
prominent distributing point.
Mt Sterling is also noted as the
largest cattle producing market in the
State, and perhaps no city in the
State can lay claim to such a large
and high-bred stock industry Espe-
cially does this apply to fine thor
oughbred horses, noted for their fine
qualities and attractive mould.
Distinguished in that line, Mt. Ster-
ling and Montgomery county have be-
come a great mart for fine saddle and
harness horses, many of which are in
the blue ribbon class, earned through
sheer merit, by the worlds best
Judges, at State fairs and national
exhibitions. Mt. Sterling claims and
points with pardonable pride to the
great product of her confines, the
Queen of the Turf, Nancy Hanks, who
first saw the light of day here in Mt.
Sterling and whose record and blood
has left it's impress in the hearts
of our people, many of whom admire
and cultivate thoroughbred horses
with a view to exceling, if possible,
achievements in that line.
Chronicling the progress of our
present city, we trace back a half
century ago, merely to state that Mt.
Sterling was but little struggling
village when the iron horse plowed
| its way through this section; new
era in her development began, which
has terminated in placing us in the
proud position of being business city
of 5000, without an equal in the
State.
Recognizing its Importance as a dis

that line will be constructed at no
distant date which will penetrate the
heart of the great coal-bearing coun
ties to the east and south of us. Com
ing events cast their shadows before
and from the present activity in the
! mountains, development of their Goa
fields will soon be reality. Then we
may conclude that railway will nat
urally connect us with the present in
accessible coal fields now awaiting de

Judge Lindsey's Lecture.

Judge Ben B. Lindsey, whose
remarkable work in the juvenile
court in Denver has made his name
familiar throughout the country,
opened the winter lecture course at
Music hall Wednesday evening The
house was filed, and the audience
was thoroughly interested from the
beginning to end in "The Misfor.
tunes of Mickey"
Rev Benjamin Swift introduced
the lecturer referring TO the assured
success of the course Of entertain
ments, and congratulating those who
were supporting the enterprise.
Judge Lindsey said in beginning
that he should speak particularly of
the duty of the state to the boys of
the country; the boy was entitled to
fair play and in dealing with him
human rights should be held higher
than property.
Mickey" was typical tough kid
in Denver, loyal to the gang; he
had been in Jail time and again. but
he was susceptible to good influences,
and he played large part, accord
ing to Judge Lindsey, in bringing
about the establishment of the juve-
nile court, and the substitution of a
detention home for the Jail into
which boys had hitherto been thrown
on the slightest pretext. He mar
shalled 90 boys-announcing that
they had all been in Jail and had
come to tell the truth--before leg
islative committee. and what they
had to say about the cruelty of jailers
and corrupt police brought about a
revolution in the official treatment Of
hoys, patience and sympathy taking
the place of official security.
Judge Lindsey's facts and figures
spoke well for the work he has done,
and the stories from life with which
he illustrated his lecture were we'll
told and amusing.
