Tobacco AT DanUille.

We call attention to the advertise
ments of the tobacco warehouse in this
issue of the paper, as no doubt every
tobacco grower in the county who has
not already sold their tobacco is trying
to decide where the best price can be
realized. Garrard county is as large a
tobacco county as there is in Central
Kentucky and the houses will treat you
good and endeavor to please you so as
to hold your patronage, or make a
customer of you. Read their adver-
tisements and select the place to sell,
and when you have sold, bring your
money back to the best county in the
State and invest it here among home
people, who are for you in every good
thing you do.

Popular Carrard County Man Lands
Coed Position AT Frankfort

Garrard county people have asked
but very little at the hands of the new
administration at Frankfort, and we
are glad to know that one who did APP
ply for position was successful in his
efforts. Hon. George T. Farris has
been appointed Capitol Square Police
man, position which is filled by the
Governor. and as Mr.. Farris is an old
friend of the Governor, he had no diff
Guilty in securing the position, No
more sterling democrat. stauncher
friend of Gov. McCreary or affable gen.
tleman could be found than Mr.. Farris,
and there is no doubt but what he will
prove equally as useful in preserving
order in and about the Capitol as he
was when a member of the upper
House from this his home district.

will shortly leave for Atlanta, Ca,
where she will take a position with a
ladies furnishing house, which is the
largest in that city. Miss Hamilton

Severe Weather.

Lancaster people have been SILVER
ing recently, experiencing the most
severe weather felt here in years, all
the more severe because of its sudden
arrival. There is considerable diver
sity of opinion as to the status of the
mercury on Sunday morning; Judge
Hughes says it was above zero at his
house, while Billy Burton who resides
but few doors away, says it register
ed 6 below at his place at the same
hour; we think that about zero was
about correct. Tink Anderson says
that he never looks at thermometer,
and was therefore perfectly comfor-
table during the cold snap, that if you
examine the mercury in this country
and find it below zero, you will freeze
to death at the mere thought.

giant re, idence on Richmond street |
where he resided up to the time of his
death.
Mr.. Alexander Robinson was one of
the few men of whom no man was ever
heard to speak i'll, nor was he ever
heard to speak ill of his fellow man,
coming of family justly noted for
their honesty and upright dealing with
their fellow men, he was what may
well be termed the noblest work of God
an honest man, loving his neighbor as
himself and ever striving to do good for
some of his fellow men. By a life of
frugality, honesty and fair dealing he
had amasseG d fortune, and of his world
ly goods he was ever willing to contri-
butte to the happiness and comfort of
those around him, giving freely to his
church, the poor and those who were
needy or in distress.
Mr.. Robinson never cared for public
life, never sought or accepted public
office, choosing to follow his chosen vo-
cation, that of farmer, and a model
one he was, as was remarked by all
who passed his well kept farm on the
Stanford pike, but upon matters of Wit
al Importance in county affairs his ad-
vice was often sought and highly valu-
ed. After long and useful life he has
entered into that reward which is the
recompense in Heaven for those who
have dwelt upon earth as he has dwelt.
After funeral services at his late
home on Monday afternoon, conducted
by his pastor Rev. F. M. finder, his
remains were placed at rest in the Lam
] caster cemetery.

"A Rose By Any Other Name"

Originally the Harrodsberg Demo-
crat, more recently the Harrodsburg
Republican, the able editor Mr.. T.
Sanders Orr has changed the name of
his publication to the Harrodsburg
Leader, giving as his reason that he
wishes his paper to carry the name of
the position it occupies in the COM
munity. 1t matters not what name it
carries, if Bro. Orr continues to get
out as good paper in the future as he
has in the past, he will have a Lead

rural journalism in Kentucky.

A committee appointed by and CON-
posed of members of the City Council
is making active preparations for the
proposed improvement in the water
works system. AS soon as they fully
determine just what is to be done, the
bonds to defray the expense to the
necessary amount will be issued, and
it is thought will be taken by home
people at par. This is a good idea, as
it makes every holder of a bond vir-
tually stock holder in the system, and
creates an intrest which would not be
had were the bonds placed elsewhere.
One thing which is certain to be done
is the installing of modern chemical
filter, which will insure the purity of
the water.
In making these improvements we
hope that the Council will have an eye
to the quantity as well as the quality
of the water, for while the former is
veIy important, the latter is also of
vital Importance. Our water supply has
never been adequate. while it has so
far supplied our needs, yet if it had
been more extensive We would have
been better satisfied. In the Summer
when the rain fall is at the minimum
we are compelled to curtail our water
supply for fear of a famine. Last
Summer the Louisville & Nasty lille
railroad asked to have their engines
supplied with water at this point, this
would have proved source of great
revenue for US, but because of the
meager supply of water at our disposal
we were compelled to refuse their re-
quest. Perhaps if we had a plentiful
supply of water for all purposes, this
company might in time deem it advis-
able to establish a watering station
here, and this would prove of inestim-
able value, from a monetary standpoint.
By all means gentlemen, now that you
have the opportunity, let us go to the
river, where an abundant supply of
water may be obtained, and we may be
in position to furnish water, not only
to our own people in unlimited quanti-
ties, but also to any industries which
may see proper to locate with US,

Mr.. Alexander C. Robinson passed
peacefully to rest at o'clock last Sat
urday afternoon. Mr.. Robinson had
been critically i'll for many months,
during which time his life was despair
ed of many times, yet each time he
would rally, and there would seemingly
be great improvement in his condition,
his wonderful vitality sustaining him to
a degree seldom noticeable in one of
his advanced years. Mr.. Robinson was
in his 10Th. year: he is survived by his
wife, three sons, Messrs Jacob, j.
Fleece and George D. Robinson, all of
this city and one daughter, Mrs. j. B.
Paxton of Stanford, all of whom were
at his bedside when the end came. Mr..
Robinson is the last of a family of
seven sons and two daughters, and they
constituted a remarkable family, in
that by lives of uprightness and honesty
each and every one of them became
striking examples in the community of
what the cultivation of these traits
may make of a man. Their father, the
late Jacob Robinson ST., was the found
err of the Christian church of this place,
and each of his sons became prominent
ly identified with the Church of his
father, and with the passing of Mr..
Alex Robinson, the last of seven noble
men, this church sustains a severe loss.
Until few years since Mr.. Robinson
had lived in the Gilberts Creek neigh
borhood, right on the Garrard county
line, but his interest had ever been CEN
tered in Lancaster, which he considered
his home, the home of his people, and
few years since he purchased the ele-
