VERDICT FOR SHANNON.
$3.50 Damages Awarded Man Injured
in Mines.

The grand jury made its final
report and was discharged last Sat
urday morning. il had examined l5O
witnesses and made fifty-seven in
dictmen.s. The report regarding
the county Jail came in the nature
OF surprise TO some who looked
only for the usual cut and dried
story OF finding the public buildings
in good order and so forth. The
report found no fault with the man
ner In which the Jail is kept, but It
pronounced the building entirely un-
III for the proper keeping OF those
committed TO It. II is dark as a
cellar, no ventilation whatever. full
of foul odors, noiso,ne and utterly
unfit for the Incarceration OF human
beings. The report, coming upon
the heels OF short article In the
NEWS of last week, caused consid-
cradle comment, and the stir was
increased when Judge Hannah said
the Fiscal Court must take imme-
diate action to remedy the deplor-
able condition or he would at the
next term OF the Circuit Court take
a rule against the county. The prop
er way to repair" the present jail
is to build new one, as different
from 1t in every particular as II is
possible to make 1t.
II will be remembered that few
months ago Harve Shannon, OF Gal
Nlnp, was injured by falling slate
while at work in the mines at
Torchlight He brought suit against
the Louisa Coal Company for $4,000,
$1,000 for damages and 500 for q
doctor bill. The case was tried this
week, concluding Wednesday with a
compromise verdict giving Shannon
$3.50. At one time the Jury report
ed an inability to agree, but the
court sent them out to try again,
After being out a short time they
reported verdict signed by nine Of
their number awarding the plaintiff
$3.50. The other three were for the
defendant company and refused to
sign the verdict. The company will
appeal the case.
The case of Stidham against the
Louisa Coal Company for false ar
rest was continued. In the case oi
Harve Shannon against the Louisa
Coal Company the verdict for the
plaintiff was not appealed from. al
noted above, but on motion Of the
defendant the Judgment obtained b,
the plaintiff was set aside and the
case will be tried again at the next
term of the court.
Court adjourned on Wednesday
and Judge Hannah has gone to hiI
home.

JAMES TRIMBLE
Promoted to Prominent Place in Wash
ingtOn Bank.

In the early sixties there was
born "up Sandy" in the quiet little
town of Prestonsburg, boy named
James Trimble. He came of noble
stock-of a stock of men and wo-
men inferior to none in this broad
land Untimely death rendered him
fatherless, but his mother, daughter
of John p. Martin, one of the
brainiest men in Kentucky, trained
up the bright lad in the way he
should go; and, true to the decla-
ration Of Holy Writ, he has never
departed from It.
In early manhood James Trimble
entered a bank in the city of Cat
lettsburg. He was soon made cash
ier, and as long as he lived in that
place his name was synonym for
honesty, sobriety and good de-
meanor.
Some time ago Mr.. Trimble was
called to Washington City, and in
that place he soon became promi-
nent in financial circles. A proof
of his standing in those circles is
the fact that he has recently been
made First President of the
United States Trust and Banking
Company, one of the biggest finan-
cial concerns in that city.
Mr.. Trimble is an object lesson
in honesty, industry and persever-
ance to the young men of the val
ley where he was born.

JUDGE BOGGS.
Contest for County Judgeshlp
Settled.
Republican Nominee Wins in the COuTt
by Reduced Majority Of
twenty-five.

II will be remembered that the
NEWS mentioned the fact last week
that the contest ease OF w. NJ. Jus
lice against David Boggs, the re-
Gently elected Judge of the Law
renee County Court, was being tried
in the Lawrence Circuit Court, and
that two commissioners. A. j. Gar
red and Ora Atkins, had been ap-
pointed to recount the vote east for
both candidates.
These commissioners, with legal
representatives of the contending
parties, carefully going over the
ballots precinct by precinct. The
work lasted several days and nights,
the result being awaited with great
interest, not by the two candidates
only but by the public generally. At
the conclusion OF their labors the
commissioners made a signed report
to Judge Hannah. the report declar-
Ing that the actual majority for
David Boggs, the Republican candi-
date for County Judge OF Lawrence
county. was twenty-five.
As before stated the poll book OF
every precinct was carefully exam
ined and the ballots cast for the
candidates for Judge counted. In the
nineteen voting precincts errors
were found in twelve. The gains
found for Justice were as follows:
In lower Louisa 2. Bear Greek Z,
East Fork 4, Cherokee ~; total Is
The gains for Boggs We're: u
Twin Branch 2, Georges Creek !
Little Blaine 2. Dry Fork 5. Rock
castle 1, Fallsburg 1, Lyons 2
Swetnam 2; total II. This made a
gain of eight votes in the entire
county for Justice. Take this from
the reported majority for Boggs and
1t leaves an undisputed majority Of
25 votes.
incidentally II was noticed as the
recount OF the vote for Judge was
made that there were errors in the
count OF the votes given other can
didates. For instance. by the GER
tificate of the election officers oi
Dry Fork precinct w. T. Cain, Re,
publican candidate for County At
torney, was given 2S votes when the
ballots showed that he was entitled
to as. In the Gambill precinct one
candidate for Representative wal
given 101 votes when he should
have been allowed 81. The tota
vote in that precinct was only IA
while as shown by the certificate o.
the election officers the two
candidates together received 199
In this precinct there was also al
error of nine in the votes cast fol
Sheriff. In Cherokeo precinct 20I
votes were polled, yet the total vote
for County Judge was 200, and the
combined vote for the candidate:
for Superintendent q Schools wa'
21s.
All of this goes TO emphasize the
Importance of selecting competent
and careful men to act as Officers
kof all elections.

HINDU JUGGLING

The Hindue jugglers and acrobata
are the most skillful in the world.
One of the latest stories told of them
is about performer who went
through many wonderful feats perched
on the top of a single bamboo stick
about fifteen feet in height The top
of the stick was tied to girdle around
his waist, and leg rest was provided
by a cushion a few feet down the pole.
Perched on this slender stick he
hoped and danced about in the live
Hest way, accompanied by the tapping
of a drum. 1t would be considered a
skillful feat to walk about with ease
on a pair of stills fifteen feet in
height. but this Hindue showed a
marvellous power of equilibrium on a
single stick. He did other things
even more wonderful. For example.
he balanced a light stick on his nose
and heavy one on his chin and then
threw the heavy one into the air with
his head and caugt it on the end OF
a light one. While balancing the two
sticks thus, end on end, he made one
revolve in one direction and the other
in the opposite direction.

HE WoULDN.T REPEAT.

When Harry Lauder went to Lon
don for the first time the stage repu-
tation he had made in the provinces
had not made much of an impression
on the metropolis. With shrewd
sense of the value of striking effects,
Lauder decided he would arouse the
Londoners to his peculiar merits in a
novel manner. From some boneyard
or other he procured the most skeie-
ton-like specimen Of horsef1esh he
could find. On this he planned to
make his first stage entrance
The old horse was tractable enough
with Lauder astride awaiting his turn
in the wings, but when the little fell
low urged him forward for the grand
entrance there was a balk, buck, and
Harry was ingloriously shot to the
front of the stage over the horses
head the animal peering after him
with what might be termed an amused
expression. Lauder slowly and pain
fully rose to his feet, while the gall
lery applauded and stamped and cried
Justly:
DO it again, AIRY; do it againi''
Lauder rubbed his aching back, felt
cautiously of his bones, looked back
at the horse, and. turning to the audi
ence, he said;
Like IL will"
And he didn't, but thereafter his
popularity was assured.-Judge.

WEEPING TREES.

The phenomenon of weeping trees
that is, of trees shedding drops of
liquids ascrIbed by DR.. Sharp in the
Cambridge Natural History TO the in
fiuence of plant bugs. The familiar
frog hopper which produces the So
called cuckoo spit on so many of our
plants belongs to this family of in
sects. A note in the London field
calls attention to some interesting
observations on this subject made by
DR.. Annandale and contributed bv
him to the records of the Indian
museum. DR.. Annandale while col
lecting insects in western Bengal felt
what he thought was rain from a
clearsky through the foliage of the
trees. On investigation he found that
il fell from the leaves and was due to
a specious of plant bug present in en-
ormous numbers.
