At the home of the bride in Rome
Ga. on Thursday morning at nine
O'Clock Mr.. Theodore Currey of this
place and Miss Harriet Fleetwood of
Rome were united in marriage, Rev.
Headin of the Christian church of Rome
officiating. The happy couple left at
once for Chattanooga, where after
spending few days they will return to
Lancaster and will be at home to their
friends at the home of the groom s
mother on Lexington Avenue. The
bride is well known to Lancaster peo-
pie, having been teacher in the Grad
ed school here for several years, and is
a lady of charming personally. The
groom, of whom it is unnecessary to
make mention in the way of introduce
ton, as every one knows him, and to
know him is to like him, is one of Lar
casters most substantial business men.
He succeeded his father the late T.
Currey in the grocery business, and
"Curry's is as well known to the peo-
pie of the town and county as the pub

Mail Handled at Lancaster Post Office.

During the month of May the local
postmaster, as we'll as all others at
offices of the same class in the united
States were required to keep accurate
account of the pieces of mail handled
by them and the number of times it
was handled. That the local post
master and his assistant have but lit
tie time to devote to anything but
their business is evidenced by the fol-
lowing figures:-Number of pieces of
first class mail handled during the
month Al 600, number second class
pieces 1861, number of third class
pieces 9,212 and fourth class pieces 1872.
Congressional and other penalty mail
handled 1,136 pieces, foreign mail 10
pieces and registered mail 1914 pieces.
1t must be taken into consideration
that the average number of times this
enormous number of pieces of mail
matter is handled is three, and that
some of it is handled four and five
times.
In addition to the handling of this
mail, the postmaster must look after
his money order business, wait on the
delivery windows, answer several
thousand questions daily and attend to
the hundred and one duties incident to
the routine work of his office.
In the years 1889 the money order
business amounted to from 80 to 60
orders a month, now there is that
number issued daily and sometimes as
high as 100 orders are issued daily.
The volume of business handled at
the Lancaster office compares favor
ably with the other offices of the same
class in the state and surpasses that of
many offices of the same class in towns
who have many more inhabitants.

Will Not Run.

In answer to the inquiries as to
Judge L. l.. Walker becoming candi-
date for Circuit Judge of the 18th Judic
ial district, at the election next Novem-
Der, we are authorized to state that he
will not enter the contest but will re-
sumo the practice of law in Lancaster
at the expiration Of his term of office.
During the time that Judge Walker
has served on the bench he has mani
tested disposition to deal fairly with
all parties and especially to safeguard
the interest of the people. He has on,
of the best records of any Circuit Judge
in the State of Kentucky as to his de-
cisions being affirmed by the court .of
Appeals, and it has been demonstrated
time and again that Gov. Cox acted
wisely in appointing him to succeed the
late Judge M. C.. Saufey. His able
public service has endeared him to the
people generally, both republicans ant
democrats, and if he had entered the
race he would doubtless have received
a larger vote thon any republican eve
polled in this district.

much heavier damages, if not loss of

his daughter, Miss Van, sustained
slight burns on the head and shoulders,
caused from falling sparks. There

Disastrous Fire.

About two o'clock Tuesday morning
Mr. C. A. Robinson awakened to find
his fine stock barn in flames. The
barn was on the opposite side of the
road from his house which is five miles
distant from town on the Lexington
pike. When Mr.. Robinson discovered
the blaze the roof of the structure was
falling in, and he was unable to rescue
any of the .ock. Five fine horses and
four splendid work mules persisted in
the flames, together with large guam
tity of baled hay, corn and oats. Mr..
Robinson is at aloss to account for the
origin of the fire.
Mr.. Robinson carried $500 insurance
on the barn and $500 on the stock,
which will not begin to compensate
him for the loss he sustained.
