APRIL COURT DAY

The pens were again closed Mon
day, owing to the quarantine but a
few cattle were for sale in private
lots. From 500 to $50 cattle were
on the market. Prices were good,
the best selling at z to 712 cents ;
COWS at s to 6 cents. Most of the
stuff sold was by the head and the
prices We quote we're about what the
buyers thought they were paying
per pound. But it would be safe to
add so cents to prices as that would
be nearer what cattle really sold for.
Many mules were sold at prices
running from 800 to 5000 each,
but demand was not as big as was
expected. There were a number of
buyers seeking good mules, among
them Fletcher Mann, of Lexington
Henry Caywood, North Middletown,
and Thomas McClintock, of Millers-
burg.

LARGEST LAND OWNER
IN KENTUCKY DIES

Rankin Clemmons, 80 years Of
ige, the largest individual landown-
er in Kentucky since the death of
James b. Haggin, and reputed to be
millionaire, died at the home of ID.
3. Cavity, near South Elkhorn, in
'ayette county, early Monday
morning. The land holdings of Mr..
Jlemmons are reported at about
1000 acres, located in Fayette,
Mercer, Woodford, Jessamine and
Scott counties. Although the great
n parts Of these farms are the best
land in the Blue Grass, Mr.. Glenn
mons never attempted to farm in a
scientific way, and believed that
sufficient profits were to be found
n the increase of value Of the real
estate itself.
The wealth which Mr.. Clemmons
had accumulated was due entirely
to his own efforts, and he gave as
his maxim in an interview once
"Mind your own business" His
commercial activities in recent years
we're confined to the buying of land,
and on an average he purchased
two new tracts year. One of his
peculiarities was that he always
tried to keep the news Of his pur-
chases quiet. He is survived by one
daughter, Mrs. John Larkin, of
South Elkhorn.

Memory Of Bses.

Sir John Lubbock in his book on
bees proves that the honey makers
have plenty of memory. He has
shown that the bees of a colony
recognized each other after a sepa-
ration of fifteen months. The men,
bers of the same colony always rec
ognize each other after a prolonged
absence, and, although it has not
yet been established, there seems
to be good reason to believe that
they do SO principally. by the sense
of smell and not by some signal OF
password, as has been supposed.

The Word Gazette.

The word gazette" is from the
name of an old Venetian coin worth
about one-half cent of our money.
The name is applied to newspapers
because it was the sum charged for
reading the first written journals
that made their appearance in 1850
After the paper was read it was
handed back to the owner, who
charged the next conner a gazette
for taking a peep at it.

A Mild Hint.

Two guests came to spend the
evening and didn't know when to
depart. The host and hostess were
patient with them, very patient, but
when IL, IL and finally l o'clock
struck the husband realized that
something must be done. He was
an original chap, and in his droll
way he looked over at his wife and
said mildly:
"My dear, hadn't we better get
up to bed3 Our friends may want
to be going"

He added that Mrs. Warren was

Acting on instructions from Warren,
Policeman Peter Bellander and Sardin
George, who were called by neighbors,
placed Mrs. Warren under arrest and
she is being held to await preliminary
hearing.
Warren placed the direct blame for
his domestic difficulties at the door of
fortune teller who visited the city
last summer and who, he claims, told
his wife that "she ought to pay more
attention to the other man than War
rem was not treating her right and
that the other man would" Up to
that time, he says, there had never

Mrs. Warren. after we had been in
bed for some time I got up and got a
drink of water and also gave Fred
drink from the same glass. 1t was
fully an hour later that he woke me up
crying that he had been poisoned"
Regarding the alleged confession
that she had three times previously
tried to poison him, Mrs. Warren said
that she had made such a statement
to Warren but that she did so under !
threats and entreaties and much dog
ging on his part and only finally con-
scented to make the statement "be
cause he wanted to hear how it would |
sound" telling him at the same time
that she made the statement only to !
satisfy him and not because she was |
guilty.
Mrs. Warren declared that there was !!
no truth in the statement that the |
"other man" exercised an undue In
fluence over her, but admitted that he /,
had in her presence made insinuations |
and threats against Mr.. Warren, but |
that she had always maintained that
she would countenance nothing of the |
sort.
She declared that for days her hus-
band had bee "dogging her" that
he was making life miserable for her
and trying to drive her to desperation.
Mrs. Warren was apparently cool
and collected in discussing the affairs.
She concluded that at was all due to
his own unjust suspicious"
The glass from which Warren drank

and will be subjected to analysis for
