More Money Needed

The bridge across the river at
the Old Forge crossing is going to
cost a great deal more than first
expected. So it will be neces-
sary to raise more subscription
money. So far, there has been
but s3,l 100 subscribed to this
fund. There should be at least
81, 600 subscribed, and will have
TO be to get the kind of bridge
needed. So come on with your
subscription, and hasten the be-
ginning of the work.

The Oldest Man

John Smell, of Leslie county,
who claims TO be but ll5 years
old, while his neighbors vouch
for an age for him of 131 years,
is probably the Oldest inhabitant
of the State. He has tax tick.
ct in his name, dating as far back
as 1SO9-11O years ego. Acting
upon the theory that he was Il
when he began paying tax, he
must be the 13l as his neighbors
claim, but the old man says he is
but ll5. He has children living
that are now 80 years old.
He attributes his long and Wig.
orous life to his outdoor living,
hunting mostly, and to his never.
failing temperate habits. He
never drank, ate, or used tobac'
co to excess at any time in his
life. In fact such indulgences
have, as matter of habit, been
rare.
1t is claimed that forty years
ago the old mans first set of teeth
were all gone, and new set of
cleaning pearly white teeth grew
out, but decayed within few
years, since which time fairly
good set have grown out and are
still on duty, his mouth looking
reasonably full today. He is
of rather light, wlry, tough build
and when he has occasion to do
so, gets on his horse and rides
twenty miles into Hyden and
back.
Mr.. John Scott, Of this county,
knows Mr.. Smell and can vouch
for his being a very old man, but
knows nothing as TO his exact
wears, but regards the above
statement approximately correct.

For The Benefit of Morrow

Governor Black and Judge
Carroll, opposing candidates for
Governor before the Democratic
party, held a joint debate in
Mayfield Monday for the benefit
of Judge Morrow, the Republi-
can nominee for Governor. They
are both far above the average
candidates, and just why they
are so persistent in giving Nor
row so much campaign amuDi-
tion after the primary IN the
event of the nomination of either,
we fall to see.

More Concrete Work

Mr.. F. G. Conlee is having a
new concrete walk put down
alongside his property and va.
cant lot on the front street.
This property adjoins Mr.. Kinks
store, which already has con-
crete walk in front of it. We
learn that others on this street
will put down this substantial
kind of walk when their board
walks are worn out.
The Board of Trustees should
prohibit the building of any more
board walks as they are nothing
but rat harbors and fire traps,
when exposed to discarded light
ed matches BY careless smokers.

While the peach crop in this
part of the state is a complete
failure, this is not the case in all
parts of the country. The esti-

Tribute to Shakespeare.

Only Shakespeare was endowed with
that healthy equilibrium of nature
whose range was elliptical, dominating
all zones of human thought and action
that power of veri-similar concep-
lion which could take away Richard
III from history, and Ulysses from
Homer-and that creative faculty
whose equal touch is alike vivifying
in Shallow and Lear.-Lowell.
