THE BRIGHTEN-UPs.

1t Is said a Brighten+Up club
has been organized at Pikeyille
with a considerable membership,and
several citizens are wearing badges
as a further evidence of the or
ganization.
1t is said the object of the club
is merely nominal one, and that
all that is required of its members
is lust to wear badge. There Is
great field for this organization, IL
its members will but apply them
selves to it. There are many IN
stances where help is really need
ed by unfortunate people, and no
where could they be of greater esr-
vice than in sitting up with the
sick and dead; and if the organlza-
ton will adopt this object instead
of the merely nominal one, they
will many times earn and receive
the gratitude of those upon whom
the hand of misfortune has laic
heavily, as well as of all the city
generally. If they wish to go a lit
tie further with the beneficient
work they may organize themselves
into a burial association to help
defray the expense of the burial
of these unfortunates.
Pikeville needs such a helping
hand.

Hog cholera in a most malignant

Farmers are much discouraged as
result of the ravages of the dis
ease which usually follows a good

the best in quarter of o century,
perhaps. A complete determination
of the swine stock is feared. Many
farmers have lost the last hog
they had.
The city council of Whitesburg
has passed stringent ordinances
preventing the erection of wooden

concrete buildings, modern in every
respect, a large number now being
under construction. With fine new
concrete sidewalks being laid down
in all sections OF the little noun
