A feeling Of increased hopefulneSs
seems to prevail among the farmers of
Central Kentucky, says the LeXing
ton Herald, the recent rains having
made the prospects for crops more
promising. 1t was feared that the
long continued drouth would materi-
ally affect the tobacco crop, but in the
judgment of the writer no finer TO-
baccO was ever grown in Bourbon
than that which is now fast ripening
for the knife. And if the blue grass
was disappointing and the corn yield
only about half Of what W promised
early i'll the season, yet the tobacco
will in a measure overcome those fail
ureS, and good prices are sure to pre-
vail. The truth is, that farmers usu-
ally expect too much; and when loss
from any cause seems imminent they
are apt to anticipate worse effects
than actually occur

Death of an EstimabIe Lady.

For several years Miss Jennie Bar
bee, sister of Mr.. S. D., j. B and Ed
Barbee, and Mrs. j. B. Jones, this
place, suffered greatly, and about six
weeks ago she was conveyed to st. An
thony Hospital, Louisville, for treat
ment. Soon after reaching the hospi-
tai it was decided that an operation
was necessary, and she cheerfully SUBJ
mitted. Word from her bedside
reached her relatives here every day
or two, and her condition was gener-
ally reported favorable. However, a
change for the worse came the first of
last week, and on Tuesday evening,
September Is, at o'clock, God called
her from suffering to be at rest.
The deceased was born and reared
in this town, and was daughter of
A. r. and Caroline Barbee, and was
tifty-one years old when the summons

She was very modest woman, and
had been member of the Baptist
Church since girlhood. She had a
pleasing disposition, and when in
health was ever ready to d. her part
in church work. She was devoted
to her brothers, sister, nieces and
nephews, her parents having been
dead many years. She was a very in
duStriOllS woman at all times ready
to do what she could for her friends
and kindred, hence she will be greatly
missed from the home.
The remains reached here WedneS-
day night, and OH Thursday all that
was mortal of this good woman was
laid to rest in the city cemetery, after
religious services by her pastor, Rev.
o. p. Bush.
