The meats were fine. the vegetables
perfect, each portion was properly
balanced and he felt that IT could not
have been improved upon but for one
thing the waiter didn't suit him. In.
proportion as his appetite became ap-
peased his objection to. the waiter
grew. Then when the dessert was
served he didn't like it, perhaps. he
was overly full but he kicked on the
dessert and he objected to the waiter
until he was in a mood to condemn
the whole meal The feeling grew
his hunger was gone, the necessity OF
the moment vanished, he denounced
the waiter as a tyrant, the dessert as
slop and the whole meal as vile, and
his friends as frauds. Strange as it
may seem the fellow isn't lonely for
company. He grows more numerous
as good meals grow more plentiful

Booster Train to Hartfod!"
That Is the Hustler's slogan.
With this in view the Hustler has in
augurated a movement to run a
Booster Train" at an early date
from this city to Hartford over the
NJ. H. & E. railroad.
The Booster Train" idea has be-
come a very popular one and has
proved to be a business-2etter for any
town that has stuff to sell and which
is fortunate in the ossession of en-
terprising business men who are in
favor of REACHING OUT for more
business in the territory that is
naturally and logically contributary
to their town.
The completion of the Madison
vile, Hartford & Eastern railroad
has opened up territory that should
be more fully developed by Madison
vile enterprises.
The purpose of this special "Boos-
ter Train" will be to advertise Madi-
sonville in a general way as a trade
and financial center and will be taken
advantage OF by the merchants, ect.,
as an opportunity to advertise heir

ripe for this missionary movement for

An ACCOUNT OF
RUNAWAY SLAVES
Hartford Was Starting
Point of Story.
GRAPHIC NARRATION OF RACE
WOrd-Picture of Days Before
Great War Between
North and South.

The Courier-Journal Of recent date
contained the following interesting
story. by Col. Ion B. Nall, the incl
dents mentioned originating in Hart
ford. The old court house, upon
which the boys were perched, was
burned during the Civil War, but was
on the same ground which is occupied
by the present building. The runaway
negroes were named "Griff" Nall, Yves
Taylor, Levi Barrett and Had Tay-
lor. The young physician was DR..
John E. Pendleton, who afterward be-
came a noted surgeon in the Conted-
crate army. He was accompanied in
his race for the runaway slaves by
Mr.. Randall Taylor, son of the late
Harrison d. Taylor. We give the story
in full, with above information, feel
ing that 1t Wa be of keen interest to
many of our readers:
1t is Sunday afternoon in August,
eighteen hundred and fifty-six-the
weather hot and dry. In a small town
in Western Kentucky two well-grown
schoolboys climbed to the belfry of
the old-styled courthouse and were
lying on the projecting base, getting
the benefit of what breeze there was
to be had. They had gone over the
Greek verbs and the Latin pronouns
in- their LESSONS for the 1mOrI ow anu
now silently contemplated the quiet,
peaceful scenes beneath.
The town looked the picture Of re-
pose-few of the inhabitants were
stirring. 1t had been day of rest,
seemingly given over to contentmenE.
Birds were not singing; dogs were not
barking; cattle were not lowing;
children, even, had ceased their noisy
games. A blue, thin smoke curled up
ward from many chimLsys where the
evening meal was being made ready.
The big red and sinking sun was about
to disk the hill range Two miles west-
ward. The big silver sphere was al
ready above the eastern horizon.
Such a scene these boys were look
ing down upon. But bark! A dust
cloud arose in the north road! A
horseman came at speed; he seemed
excited; he had ridden fast and his
horses flanks were flecked with foam.
He met a citizen and they conversed
a moment. The citizen flew up the
street, shouting aloud. Two or three
men gathered on the corner and to
them the horseman impaired his news.
They scattered and each one became
a round-rObin to spread the report.
Men, women and children, old and
young, black and whdte, seemed to
spring up from the ground as if it
had been sown with the seeds of hui
mainly and the springtime had come.
The boys were soon clambering down
the creaky ladder TO join the buzzing
tumult.
Let us be calm! This is not fiction,
but facts, as the writer recalls them.
Remember it was at a time when a
war cloud might have been seen on
