John ". Boland Dies Suddenly In Charles
ton S. E.

A telegram to Mrs. John W. Boland
from Charleston S. C. on last Monday
brought the sad intelligence of the
death of her husband in that city.
Mrs. Boland had received a letter
from him the day previous and he was
in apparent good health and spirits.
and the news of his death came as a
terrible shock. Mrs. Boland has been
almost completely Frustrated since the
receipt of the sad news. His remains
arrived in Lancaster at 2 o'clock this
Thursday afternoon and the inter-
ments will take place some time dur
ing the day.
Besides his wife, who before her
marriage was Miss Elizabeth Walker
of this place, the deceased is survived
by daughter, Miss Dorothy Boland,
and by one brother and sister, both
of whom reside in Ironton o. The
brother and sister arrived in Laneas-
ter on Wednesday night. Mr.. Boland
for many years was engaged in the
cross tie business at Burnside KY,
where he had a large mill, but the
constant ravages of the water so in
jured his plant that he finally gave it
up. At the time of his death he was
engaged as a travelling salesman for
the E. C. Atkins Saw Works of India
napolis Ind, he had been assigned the
territory in and around Charleston,
and contemplated moving his family to
that place in the near future. The
firm for which he worked was one of
the largest of its kind in the world,
and owing to his wide acquaintance
among mill people, Mr.. Boland was
one of their most valued employees.
There was never a more whole
souled, nicer gentleman than John
Boland, a perfect gentleman in all
that the term implies, he never said
or did aught that would wound the
feelings of his fellow man. devoted to
his home and family, true friend and
splendid gentleman, his death will
come as a deep sorrow to all who
knew him.
To the deeply bereaved wife who is
so well known and universally re-
spected and loved in Garrard county,
and to the little daughter who was SO
devoted to him. the heartfelt sympathy
of the entire county is extended and
may He who is father to the father
less comfort them in their hour Of
sorrow.

Educational Prospects More Promising
Than Ever Known In History Of
County.

The opening of the school term in
the fall of 1913 marks the brightest
prospects from an educational stand
point in the history of Garrard county.
Two new Consolidated High Schools,
the one at Paint Lick beginning its
second term and the Buena Vista
school its initial term, both with splen-
did corps of teachers and prospects for
successful school years. The school at
Lancaster with a new $50, 900 building
unsurpassed by any town in the state
of like size, with all modern conven-
fences, latest sanitary appliances, mod
ern heating and lighting facilities. a
new principal and the already efficient
corps of teachers materially strength
ened, gives promise of increased at
tendence and most successful school
year.
The people of Lancaster and Garrard
county have just cause to be proud of
the rapid strides made by the cause of
education in the county within the last
ten years, and when We look back to
the educational conditions prevailing
here twenty years ago, we can scarcely
credit our senses. Then parents desir-
ing to give their children an education
beyond the plainest english course were
compelled to send them away from
home, which involved no little expense,
and in consequence many of US were
deprived of an education which is ours
nowadays for the taking. The schools
of the county now are prepared to
equip a student with an education
which will amply qualify them to make
their way in the hurly burly, busy
world which they face when their
school days are finished. and their par
ents have the qualification of knowing
this education was received at no ad-
ditional outlay beyond the taxes which
all are compelled to pay, regardless of
whether not we have children to edu-
cate.

The Fiscal Court agreed upon and
adopted q. plan for keeping up the
County Roads until January first at its
meeting on Tuesday. The question
has been much discussed by the people
over the county and given the men,
bers of the Court some worry. Many
changes in the old law were made by
the Legislature of 1912 which required
the Court to make changes in the old
way of looking. after the dirt roads.
The overseers have been legislated out
of Office and their places will be taken
by assistant Road Engineers appointed
by the Road Engineer. Mr.. Cleveland
Bourne with the approval of the Coun-
ty Judge. These assistants will be
paid for the services when actually at
work on the roads $1.50 per day.
$500. 90 was appropriated out Of the
road tax fund of 1918 levy for the
county dirt roads in addition to the
debts already incurred for the working
of the dirt roads since last October.
This fund is at the disposal of the
Road Engineer subject to the order of
the court as made at the recent meet
ing. The Road Engineer or his as
sistants under the law may warn in all
able bodied men with few exceptions
over eighteen and under fifty years to
work on the dirt roads in the districts
to which they are allotted. The Court
ordered the County Road Engineer to

Tobacco Outlook Promising In Garrard
County And A Good Crop In Sight.
Notwithstanding Press Reports
To The Contrary.

From reading reports on the Gar
rard county tobacco crop published in
the daily newspapers recently, one I'M
acquainted with the situation would be
led to believe that the crop was destin-
ed to be failure this year. Such is
by no means the case; it is true that
some of the tobacco already cut is
short, but this is caused by the drought
causing it to ripen prematurely. This
early cutting however, comprises but
very small per cent of the countys
crop, and will not effect the crop in
general. In some parts of Garrard
county tobacco was never better, it
having been seasonable, and the gen.
eral rain of last week put an altogether
different aspect to the general outlook
throughout the county, and the crop is
far from being a failure. Early in the
season considerable trouble was ex-
perienced because of the backwardness
and scarcity of plants, and as a result
huSu Va ShC Shop 10 ioeC, tiiS poit VI
the crop, if the season lasts long en-
ough, will prove the cream of the crop,
and as there is little danger of frost to
any extent earlier than the middle Of
September, it is reasonable to expect
that the greater part of the crop will
be cut and safely housed before that
time. The crop through the county, is
spotted" and cutting will extend
from now until the first of October,
and the quality in general will be fully
up to the average of former years, and
the quantity will not fall far short of
the quality. Buyers are already in
the county looking over and getting a
line on the crop, and it is a safe pre-
diction that the tobacco crop of 1918
will make up to many farmer what
he loses on q damaged and inferior
corn crop.

1t appears to be pretty certain that
negotiations are about to cease be-
tween the Huerta regime and the
United States, whereby through the
kindly Offices of the latter, peace may
be restored in Mexico. Huerta asked
that President Wilson delay the read
ing of his message to Congress in re-
gard to the matter, and this was done,
Huerta being given "a hours in which
to give his answer to the proposals
made by Pres't Wilson through his
representative. John Lind; this time
expired without an answer from the
Mexican, and the united States will
most probably assume an attitude of
non interference and non recognition
toward our southern neighbor. Many

Pres't Wilson in propounding his pro-
posals, and it was thought that the
pressure would prove 30 great that
Huerta could not afford to disregard

James Allen Cotton Entertains In A Law
ish Manner In Honor OF Relatives
From Michigan Last Satur-
day.

At the hospitable and handsome
home of Mr.. James Allen Cotton in the
north eastern part of the county on
last Saturday was held what was in
tended to be reception in honor of
Mr.. Cotton's brother and family Mr.
Will Tom Cotton, and his friend and
family, c. M. CARRIER of Morance Mich.
all of whom are guests of relatives in
this and Madison counties. However,
the festive occasion seems to have re-
solved itself into something of a family
reunion, as there were 1S5 guests gath
cred about the board, only five of whom
were not connected with the Cottons
by either blood or marriage. There
had been prepared for the occasion a
repast that most assuredly cannot be
surpassed, as all who are acquainted
with the lavish manner in which Mr..
Cotton entertains will readily testify.
Chief among the delicacies served was
fresh river fish, homeless, something
very seldom seen, and their toothsom-
eness can be better imagined than des-
cribed. There was music, both vocal
and instrumental, and the old songs to
which the older Cottons of generations
ago were wont to listen, were inter-
mingled with the more modern ditties of
the present generation. A photographer
had been especially provided for the &C.
casion and the picture of the assembled
guests were taken in a general group
and then each family was taken to it
self. Owen Hendren also added much
to the occasion by his recitations, chief
among which was his selection which
won the prize at the contest recently
held in Lancaster. The guests of hon.
or were, Mr.. and Mrs. C. M. CARRIER
and son and Mr.. and Mrs. w. T. Cot
ton, came through from Michigan il
Mr.. CAREERS handsome large automo
bile, and the former, whose first visit
to Kentucky was made the occasion Of
this handsome reception, surely formed
very pleasant opinion of Kentucky
hospitality.

The individual who has an adequate
number of fat hogs for his meat this
fall will be indeed lucky. Because of
the severe drought and the scarcity of
water, and the probability of corn be-
ing high this fall and winter, there
has been an unprecedented number of
hogs sold and shipped from the county,
and the result will be that meat hogs
will more than probably be extremely
scarce and high at killing time. The
prospect for the lowly editor to have
jowl and greens next spring is exceed
ingly slim, and they may not so much
as dream of such luxury as old ham.

had sold to We'll Bros. of Lexington at

Taking into consideration the extreme
ly dry weather which we have exper-

shortage of grass and stock water,
these cattle were extremely good, and
Mr.. Gibbs sale was far in excess of
