Frankfort. Ky, March Judge John
NJ. Elliott was assassinated in 1873 in
this city by Col. Thomas Buford, of
Henry county. The killing occurred in
Ann street at the woman's entrance of
the Capital Hotel. Col. Buford had
bought a tract of land in Henry county
from James Guthrie, and had made
payment of $1,000 on the land. He was
unable to meet further payments and
the title of the land was questioned.
The lower court held the title valid AMI
ordered the land sold for debt. 1t brought
less than the $4,000 and the Appellate
Court sustained the sale. Col. Buford
was rendered insane because of this
loss and determined to kill the menu
bers of the Appellate Court. He hal
his neighbor, as he felt more agrieved
at him than any other member of the
bench, but RETAINED from doing so be-
cause Judge Pryor had n family.
Judge Pryor stopped in at the gro
Gerry of Lawrence Tobin, a prominent
politician of that day, TO taste some
cider, and Judge Elliott came on. up

his breast, killing him instantly. Col.
Buford came up to where Judge Elliott
was lying and. picking up his hat, he
and felt to see if his heart was beat

the law
Judge Sneed remarked: ''It's a pity
you did not do 1t two minutes ago." TO
which Col. Buford replied, II have been
wronged greatly"
Col Buford was placed in the Jail,
and a mob formed to take him from
the Jail to lynch him.
Governor McCreary was Governor at
that time. and ordered the McCreary
Guards to the Jail. and they dispersed
the mob and saved Col. Buford's life.

and other vegetables are raised only
with care and in favorable seasons.
Farms Now Cultivated.
AS one enters the valleys of south
ern Alaska the agricultural possibilities
improve. Potatoes and other vegetables
have done we'll in the past, but as
rule grains fail to ripen and are valu-
| able only for feeding stock. Farther
north, in what is known as Copper
valley, conditions are more favorable
for vegetables, and quite number Of
good gardens and small farms are now
| cultivated. The growing season here
tofOre has stretched over six months
or more in the islands and the inlets
OF southeastern Alaska. 1t decreases
to five months at Skagway, and is
about four in the interior.
While the Seward peninsula and the
arctic coast have no agricultural pos
sibilities, yet considerable parts Of the
Yukon basin are suitable for garden
ing to degree astonishing to the un-
informed. The best-known instance Of
successful farming is that at the Holy
grees north. There cattle have been
raised for IL years and more, and the
products of the land under cultivation
excite establishment in all visitors. All
through the valley of the Yukon pota-
toes and vegetables mature when
proper ground is chosen and skilled
attention given.
At Fort Gibbon, at the junction or
the Yukon and the Tanana rivers, and
at Fort Egbert, near the arctic circle,
the military garrisons have raised
large quantities of vegetables, pota-
toes being especially successful. Even
at Coldfoot, within the arctic circle, at
6S degrees north, potatoes, cabbage,
peas. turnips, rhubarb and berries are
grown of large size and good flavor.
Truck farming and hay farming are
fiourishing industries in the lower Ia
mana valley, where it is said that more
than 10000 acres of land have been
homesteaded. While grain will ripen'
only under favorable conditions, pota-
toes, with other vegetables, do very
well, and the native and selected for
eign grasses are productive Of good
crops.
That the productivity of Alaskan
agriculture Is important, both in guam
tity and in value, is clearly indicated
by the dimipution of the shipment OF
potatoes from the United States to
Alaska, which dropped in two years
from 211,215 bushels to 1908 bush
els. In the same length of time the
value of all vegetable shipments fell
from $696,92S TO $483,S55, a decrease
of more than 80 per cent.
A warmer climate in Alaska would,
no doubt, cause these figures to dimin-
ish rapidly and soon disappear. In
fact, it is not an extravagant state
ment, according to men who have In
vestigated the subject, to say that the
switching Of the Japan current may
mean that Alaska will forge ahead In
it's agricultural products until it's ex-
ports will be the very things which in
the past were imported.

What Horse Power Means.

Very few people realize just what a
horse power, as expressed in engineer
ing terms, really means.
When It is stated that the worlds
largest Curtis steam turbine, which
drives an electric generator in the Wa
terside station, New York, develops
10000 horse power the meaning Is
vague and incomprehensible. Imagine
this term reduced to man power and
almost every one can grasp its full
meaning. If it takes twelve men to
equal one horse power then this man.
moth turbine engine develops II times
10000, or the working energy Of $780,
900 men. If these men worked in
eight-hour shifts each day it would
require the services of 1,080,000 men
every twenty-four hours to produce
the working energy Of this TURBINE
