The legislature has done a good deed in passing a law substituting the electric chair for the hang mans moose. If we must continue the barbarity of executing men, 1t is better to have 1t done at the pen itentiary and as far hidden from the world as possible.

Riddell Wins

The Court of Appeals decided
last Tuesday the injunction cases
affecting the election of the Cir.
cult Judge in the 23rd judicial
district, and also affecting the cleo
ton of a part of the democratic
ticket in Estill county. The court
holds that Riddell precinct in
Estill county must be counted and
also that the missing precinct in
Breathitt county must be counted
This puts it up to Judge ]. P.
Adams to contest the election, or
else submit to the opinions.
it's not probable that Adams
will contest for the reason that
such a contest will pc very costly,
aud it is not certain that he could
win. The Republican candidates
in Estill are contesting the elect

The Schumann Quintet

They came, they played, they
conquered"
If this, the first number of the
Lecture Course, is a forecast of
what the rest will be, the future
holds great things in store for
the votaries of Art. The pro-
gramme consisted for the most
part of selections from the old
classics and brought forth a quick
response from an attentive audi.
ence.
First, the glad strains OF Men
delssohns Wedding March, burst
upon the air; then an overture
by Mozart, the poetic language of
"a brave soul who knew how
to smile through tears.
Scarcely had these beautiful
strains died away when the aud
fence was charmed by a series of
old fashioned dances The state
ly Minuet, as danced by our
grandparents, The German Peas
ant Dance, The Folk Dancing,
Webers Waltz and that Heaven
born melody "Schuberts Sere-
made" Following these came
the beautiful Vienese Folk Music,
expressing all the emotions of the
heart, the simple life of a nation.
Possibly one of the most artistic
numbers of the evening was
Traumerie: its rendering being pc
sympathetic and showing
the technical proficiency of the
group of artists. "The Old Oaken
Bucket" and the negro melodies
Of the anti-slavery days, touched
a responsive chord in every heart;
then as a grand finale, the Sex.
tette from Lucia. On leaving the
hall you felt with the gifted
writer, that music is prophecy

DR.. D. II. Scanlon Tenders
Resignation

DR.. d. H. ScanlOn rendered
his resignation to his congrega-
ton on Sunday morning. to the
great surprise and regret of ali
who know him.
No minister has ever come to
this city who has striven more
faithfully, for the uplift of humani-
ty, or has shown a broader chris
tan spirit to all denominations,
and the news of his intended de-
parture causeswide spread sorrow.
DR.. ScanlOn has been called to
the pastOrate of the Presbyterian
Church in Meridian. Mississippi
and will leave for that point the
middle of January.
The good wishes and prayers
of our people follow him and his
lovely family to their new home.

making, but the sermon of Rev.
c. c. Morrison, D. d., editor of
the Christian Century, Chicago,
at the Christian Church last Sun
day night was one never to be
forgotten by those who heard it.
The subject was "The Conceal.
ment of God" and the preacher
thrilled the auditors with his
dramatic and wonderful word
pictures of the providence which
conceals from our sight many of
the things we would like to know
as well as the providence which
reveals the things that are best
for us to know. 1t is a misfOr-
tune that our community hears
so many good things, for the good
is always an enemy of the best.
The auditorium should have been
packed to hear sermon of this
character. This is DR.. MOrrison's
first visit but we are assured that
it will not be his last.
He is a brilliant editor looking
out upon the world with the eyes
of a modern man, helping the
constituency which trusts to him
for leadership to a clearer concep-
ton of their attitude ward
the questions which perplex
thoughtful people. His great
powers of thought, his mastery
of a chaste and eloquent vocabu-
larry were a delight that all who
heard him will not soon allow to
perish from their minds.

Not Disorderly Conduct

The Court of Appeals has az
hrmed the judgment of the Fa-
yette Circuit Court in the Loan
Shark Case. This was an in
dictment against the Mutual
Loan & Trust Company of Lex
ington, which made a habit of
loaning money as a pawn shop
and it was charged that they
kept a disorderly house by reason
of numbers of persons frequent
ing there to borrow money at
usurious rates. The Court of APP
peals held that it was not disor-
derly to loan money at usurious
rates, although it was against
the law to do so.

POULTRY SHOW
Closes Saturday After a Most
Successful Meet.

The poultry show closed Sat
urday night. The exhibitors
were from Louisville, George
town, Millersburg, Maysville,
Stanford, Lancaster, Nicholas
vile, Mckinney, Frankfort, Glen
dale, Lexington and all points in
in Madison county. Madison
county breeders took a good
share of the prizes, a complete
list of which is given on last page.
1t is estimated that there were on
exhibition over 1000 fowls aver
aging better than any previous
exhibit. The officers of the re-
firing association extend thanks
to Mrs. c. S. Lyon, of Stanford,
KY, who so ably assisted in max.
ing the show a success this sea-
son. The past association has
been conducted from a financial
standpoint by voluntary contribu-
ton. 1t is the intention of the
new organization mentioned
elsewhere When completed, to set
a date for the next show, and to
begin Immediately to advertise
the association that the entire
country may know that Madison
county has permanent organ
ization and one that will attract
the breeders of fowls throughout
the nation. These associations
are resulting in great good to all
the people throughout the coun-
try and should be encouraged and
patrOnized by everybody. And
it is to be hoped that everybody
will be interested and will give
the association any assistance
that they may ask lUf.

CHAS. W. CLARK
World Famous Baritone
Heard at the Normal.

by error this report was omitted from
our last issue, which we regret very much.)
If there has been any doubt as
to the musical sentiment of our
people that doubt was dispelled
by the attitude and appreciation
of the audience that heard Mr..
Charles w. Clark: the great bari.
tone, at Normal Chapel, on Mon
day evening. The program was
in no sense of the kind that APP
peals to a cheap audience, but
was almost exclusively classical
and was most favOrably received.
The singer had the sympathy Of
the audience from the very be-
ginning, and at times his emo-
tional singing electrified his hear
ers.
Mr.. Clark's voice is wonder
fully sweet and pure, his enunei;
alton clean and his phrasing
beautifully artistic. He covered
the entire range of emotions, from
the light, humorous song and
delicate little ballad, to the in
tensely dramatic art song. His
rendition, as an encore of the
sacred song, Il think when | read
that sweet story of old, actually
gripped the heart. He rose to
the full height of his power in
the "Erlkonig;" which was EN-
phasized by the masterful playing
of Mr.. Gordon Campbell, who ac-
companied at the piano.
