Child Burned.

Elizabeth, 4 years old, daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs b. M. Nc.
Pherson, was badly burned and
bad a narrow escape from death
by an explosion of gas oven in
kitchen range Wednesday at
their home in Winchester. Her
frrehead, cheeks and lips were
badly burned, and her hair and
eyebrows were slnged off. Her
mother was nearby and eXtlu-
guished the blaze. The child will
not be permanently disiigured, it
is thought.

Hauling Supplies to Oil Fields.

Every day large quantities of
supplies for drilling leave this
city for the oil field. Yesterday
morning a wagon with SIX yoke
-l2 oXen-drove up to the depot
and loaded up for the fields. Ev-
cry few days new rig is un-
loaded here and goes to the plac-
es of drilling. The road from
Clay City to the Furnace field is
found to be much better as well
as nearer than the stations on
the l.. d n. in Estill county,
hence the gradual increase of
freight hauling from the depot
at ClayCity to the Furnace fields.

High Waters.

The melting snow Sunday, with
frequent showers during the day
and Sunday night, caused very
high tide Monday and Tuesday,
but little damage was done, as
all feed had been hauled out of
the bottoms. All traffic was cut
off from Clay City over the roads
to Stanton, Spout Spring, Win
chester and Mt. Sterling because
the grades to the bridges were
overflowed.

The Sickle Of Death.

The Death Angel entered the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Cliff Shin
fessel in this city Sunday after
noon aud took from their tender
and loving care the precious lit
tie Alene Vaughn, their twenty
months old daughter, who for
some time had been in a very bad
state of health. Everything pos.
sible to do for the little dear one
was done by the fond parents
and neighbors, but to no avail.
Burial Tuesday IN the Clay City
cemetery. This brIght-eyed lit.
tie daughter had been called up
ward by the Parent above, to es.
cape the pains of this earthly life
and enjoy the bliss of Heaven.
This sad taking away ofOne so
tender and placing it In so happy
a home makes Heaven more pre-
cious to the surviving family.

little children to come unto me

One Way Kentucky Loses.

The Times is in receipt of a
circular addressed to the taxpay-
ers of Kentucky, which runs as
follow:
"Two prison labor contracts at
the State penltentIary at Eddy
Vile expire Arpil /, this year.
These contracts are held by the
Reliance Manufacturing COmpa.
ny, Chicago corporation which
manufacture shirts.
"It pays the Stale 30 cents a
day per man for 175 men and 679
cents a day for 75 more men. 1t
does not pay anything for factory
space, power, heat, light or water.
These are given by you free of
charge to the corporation.
"Virginia gets 50 cents day
per man, and charges for all of
these items.
Tennessee gets $1.10 a day per
man from the Gray-Dudley
Hardware Company.
"If you had COTTON So cents a
day, you would have received
$23, ,056 more last year for the
ESQ men than you did. In addi-
tion, YOU should have COTTON at
least $4,000 for space, power,
light &c.
"If you had gotten S1.10 day
per man, you would have receiv
ed $42, 431 90 more than you did
last year. And this is for one
year only!
"How do you feel about losing
these sums yearly to foreign
corporation?
"The contracts expire April l.
Will the Prison Commission
awaId new contracts to the pres.
ent holders without advertising
for bidders? The law calls for
due advertising.
ASK the Commission what 1t
is going to do about these con-
tracts.
"Why shouldn't Kentucky get
at least "A dollar day per man?
Or, better still, why not have
the men work for you and not
for foreign corporations?
"It the Commission is going to
advertise for proposals, when is
going TO do SO? Where is 1t 60
ing to advertise? Will the ad.
vertising be done In time to get
bidders other than the present
holders?
Taxpayers of Kentucky, you
have right to know"

price Of Sl,5l5,0O0. Up to no~
not a single shell has been ac-
cepted by the Government, al
though We have expended, in
wages, materials, ETC., on these
orders &522, 1891, and We have not
received u SINGLE DOLLAR on
these contracts.
In sddiiion. literal Interpretation 81
the contract might naate Liable fos

In the light Of our experience, aud hav-
ing no other basis. we bad Tor l6-inch
