j. II. Patton of the Lexington
Sales Sta bles sold a car of fine
Tennessee mules last week to
Mr.. Knott, of Alabama, and has
on hand now a lot Of the finest 2
years-old mules that has ever
been seen in the State, for sale
or trade. Mr.. Patton is trying
to make Lexington mule and
horse market, and it is some
thing the farmers and merchants
both ought to appreciate and
help to boost the enterprise, for
there is no business that helps a
toWp more than a good market
wheN you can at any time get
the money for your horses and
mules without having to wait for
someone to come to buy.
Just as the Progress scribe was
finishing up last week an array
of local matter that would have
practically covered every lrap-
pening since the last issue If the

hap aud cut shortaour efforts.
One of the items missed was the

and wife had been most kindly
invited, but which illness pre-.
vented them from attending.
Those who had the good fortune
to be present and participate in
the feast say that it was one fit
for the gods-one in which the
banquet board teamed alike with
the best procurable substantials
aud delicacies. The w. O. w.
is great order and the Progress
wishes for it the acquisition of
many new members in the year

Firm Sells Out.
After d Years of Success
and Usefulness rluse &
Company Give Place to
Another Firm.

After II years OF activity, dur
ing every day of which the house
was worthy Of patronage and en-
titled to the respect of all, Muse
u Company, as grocers, cease tc
be a factor in the business of the
town and county, giving place to
Mr.. Carl Edwards, late of Luray,
who has purchased the stock,
has been gwen the good will and
will continue to serve the public
at the same stand.
K. K. Muse, the head of the
the rate firm, was taught the
business lessons of life as clerk
in the Lexington store of the
late John S. Fielder, who has for
many years, previous to and at,
ter the war of the sixties, a val.
ued and successful leader in the
mercantile life of Lexington and
Henderson county. Later Mr..
Muse was in business at Jack s
Greek, after which, in 1889, he
came to Lexington and took up
the drygoods business with Mr..
z. j. Dennison, with whom he
was in the drygoods business for
four years, when the stock was
divided and Mr.. Muse continued
for four more years in drygoods.
Finally, after the death of both
Esq. Dock" Galloway and w.
M. Elkins, Mr.. Muse bought
the grocery business they had
run for several years. In 1S9
j. d. Muse came also to LeXing
ton and became associated in
business with his brother, X. E.,
which connection was continued
without interruption until his
death in January four wears ago,
Notwithstanding j. ID. enlisted in
the Spanish American war, as
member of the first Tennessee
Regiment and saw service in the
Philippine Islands.
The Progress editor has felt
an abiding interest in the firm
of Muse d Company, because the
members of that firm have been
to him both business and person
al friends, and to us, most nat
urall, there is a strong tinge of
sadness in the passing of firm
that has for so many years been
a most dependable friend in
flush" and lean" times alike.
Mr.. Edwards comes to us as an
already successful young man of
business. He is son of the late
John b. Edwards. one of the best
citizens the west side of the
county ever had, and had the
good luck 10 marry Miss Stella,
the younger daughter of our be-
loved townsman, Esq. Il. w.
Stewart.
The Progress is not authorized
to state what time Mr.. Edwards |
will take charge Of the business,
but while we lament the with
drawal of Mr.. Muse from the
place in which we have greeted
him some six thousand or more
days. We wish his successor
the fullest measure of success.

BIG COMEDY FEATURE
 SHOWING AT ROYAL
Love, Luck and Gasoline" Will Fill Bill At Local
 Theatre

Love, Luck and Gasoline" the lat est Broadway star feature comedy to be shown at the Royal Theatre for two days commencing with today's matinee, has caught the public fancy as Is shown by advance reports from where 1t has been exhibited in the larger cities.
 Love, Luck and Gasoline" is a speed-mad comedy of adventures of Bunny Wally Van and Lillian Walk CT, trio of screen artists that would make any picture popular.
 Bunny is seen at his best in this merriest of screen plays snd he pulls on some stunts" that make the fat men in the audience green with envy" because of his ability Com. edles such as this will attract and hold an audience so long as the hu- man family has the power to laugh. lt is a better remedy for the blues than a prescription compounded by a congress of the most noted phy- sicians
 If you have the blues, feel despon- dent or owe money you can't pay. see Love, Luck and Gasoline" at the Royal and forget your troubles.
