Nkllie Owens, daughter of the late Gomalia Drummonds, has been allowed a pension of $1,310 30. It ia tho nmount she would have drawn in monthly payment! from her Infancy to her 10th year.

CoNDfCTOit Dan O'Mallky's house at Itowlnnd caught fire from a defective Hue Saturday nnd for awhile It looked impossible to save it. The roof was bad ly burned nnd tho furniture was considerably damaged by removing it. The ltyan Comuiatidery, K. of Danville, will confer tho Ked Cross degree on several candidate Thursday evt'iiiiik', after which a bampiot will be enjoyed. All tho Stanford knights, their wives and daughters, will ntteud.

MNAOBit Kite has selected quite pretty uniform for the Inte'iuoiiJoi'unai. imso ball club. "The shirt and pnuta will bo black, the cap, stockings and belt yellow and the initials, embroidered In yellow on tho brents. Keep your eyes on the cmck amateur club in Kentucky. The pay train ran into the caboose of freight 30 in tunnel Xo.

8, Friday morning, disabling tho enitinu considerably nnd damaging tho caboose to some extent. Thu pay train was running ns the second section nnd may hnve gone little too fast. After nn hour's work the trnrk was clear nnd tho trip was resumed. Mayoii Vandeveeh made a' lengthy speech before tho county court, allowing the necessity of tho county providing for two tiro plues on the public square ami the proposition to pay $100 for them waa pvaed unanimously. The court also ordered that water pipes be laid into tho jail.

Tho county makes by tho operation, as it rfets protection from firo and largo amount of additional property to tax in the water works. Henry I -00 an, tin iityro who hns been in jail hero for a year or more for the shooting of Louis Gibson, hns just completed his term anil oeem to be bit glad of it. Ho has been "trusty" and during his time in hoc assisted Jailer Owens in his duties, frequently carrying the keys, and is mj proud of it that tiu.i otlored to work for that gentleman free of charpe. The oiler has of vouroo been accepted. Altiioi'uh the committee reported in favor of tlie seating of Xoyee, the republican in tlie contested New York beat, the House by a vote of 140 to OS contin ued the sitting member, Rockwell, in office.

The debate took in Cleveland and Hill, nnd Chairman O'Farrell, of Virginia, got so hot in the collar that lie -compared the former to a lion and the latter to fox, adding that he never did have any particular love or admiration for the latter animal. Piiop. Huniivnu tells us that the commencement exercises of Stanford Female College will be held June 2 nnd 3 nnd as usual at Walton's Opern House. The profeehor is making an effort to have Dr. Rivera, tho noted Louisville prencher, who was his preceptor, come and deliver the addrer.3 to the graduating class, which will bo as follows, if they succeed in passing the examinations: Misses Ophelia Lackey, Siibie Lasley, Ella Wright, Essie liurch and Annie Mene-fee Thk Spriso.

Before leaving for his home Mr. B. J. O. Howe agreed with Col.

Welch, who is representing his sister, Mrs. E. T. Rochester, on a price for the Logan Fort Spring, from which tho supply for the water works is to bo obtained. The figures aro $1,500 for the perpetual use of the spring and about 1 acres of land, the compauy in addition agreeing to put water in the residence and barn.

Ten days wero given Mr. Howe to take it at that figure, but it is likely that ho will not requiro ao long. agents at rami uck, Kinney and Hustonville. See them before you sell. A.

The Lancaster court wa3 a dull one for business yesterday, but Judge Saufley made speech announcing his candidacy that awnkened tho nntives and put them to thinking that ho ia a mighty good man for tho nlaro he seeks.

"JOFI.V Iji In-big, bold letters, appeared on the Coffey House register one day Inst week. It certainly was not the big bruiser or we should have heard of his getting on a biling drunk and mnking the usual hoggish fiend of himself. 9 Writino from Buffalo, Wyoming, Miss Mnttie Paxton says the whole country is undergoing a reign of terror. The "rustlers" nnd thu cattlemen's war is waged with a ferocity that can hardly bo imagined by one not on the ground and business of till kinds is at a standstill. The Kentucky State Weather Service in connection, with tho S.

Department of Agriculture, reporta that Inst week rains were the Heaviest ever recorded, the nvenuie fall being A inches. Fnrm work hns been greatly hindered and veiretation retarded. The serious results of tho recent frosts nro more apparent and reports indicate that all fruits except apples are badly damaged. The Ladies Exchange proved a pleasant nnd a much more profitable undertaking than its originators expected. All of the edioles were disponed of and nnd some of the beautiful specimens of needle and other handiwork found willing A neat little sum was realized and the ladies are greatly encouraged.

It will be open again next Saturdny nt the same place, the rear of the post-office, for which even larger pif partitions will bo made. The negro, Hendeison Perkins, who liis puis in the shooting of Jomes L. Yautis, says thnt while Green Mullins and tho other negro were pulling off the plank of the smoke-house, Mr. Yantis appeared and thnt he, Per- Pklns, fired up in the air to scare him. Green Mullins immediately fired at Mr, Yantis nnd It waa his shots that took efiect.

As usual it is the meanest rascal that turns Mate's evidence nud he and the whole kit in this business deserve the most condign punishment. We are told thnt there is considerable dissatisfaction with Judge Stephens for puttlug tho bail so low, as it is eaid they can cuily give it, after th6 excitement over the crime has in measure subsided. Mr. Yantis is doing well and il lockjaw does not supervene, he will bo out in few weeks. Tub justices met with the, county judgo Saturday and after full discussion of the question fixed the poll tax at $1.50, same as last year, and the ad at cents, an increase of 2J cents.

The latter is to be divided as followK 2Jc to pay interest on bonds, V2 for ordinary expenses and 7 for a sinking fund. The object of the increase is to get the county on a cash basis, that is to pay tho claims against it as soon as they are allowed, instead of requiring its creditors to wait two years as at present. It is said that it will only require the increase this year and next to provide a fund euflicient to meet all demands, after which the old rate of taxation can be resumed. It will save the county many a dollar to pay its debts when they are due and the court acted beusibly in the matter. The delinquent list was sold to Sheriff Menefee for 550.

Tlie court also voted $50 a year for two fire plugs to be placed on court square. 1 1 Jailed. Capt. Ritchey, proprietor of the Fifth Avenue Hotel, hnd Brooking T. Harding and his bride arrested for obtaining board at his hotel on false pre tenses and lodged in jail, but after remaining in all night the city court dismissed the case with the remark that it was not a debt collector.

Harding was originally from Campbellsville, where the lepublican party held him in high enough esteem to instruct for him for Congress. He afterwards removed to Williamsburg and a few mouths ago married a la.ly who claims to be a uieco of Congressman Wilson. Some time after his marriage Harding went to Louisville to establish himself in his profession, he says, and put up at tho Fifth Avenue, where his board bill had run to $100. Ho gave a draft on the congressman and it was returned protested, hence tho legal proceedings. The couple are both stylish looking people and their presence in jail and at court created quite a sensation.

Harding issaid to be pretty slick with cards, but his luck may have deserted him antl put him in the strait of drawing for money whero he b(d no claim. That wna rut awkward incident in the United States Senate chamber tho He Is expected other day, when a distinpuished senator Inmhirnln timft in Mia cnnlrnot rg n.irranilnL' his COat taU3 and let with tho town weunesuay nigut. lau a pint flask filled with familiar liquid. A nimble paga sprung to the rescue, picked up the pieces and mopped the floor, IJut the eceutof tho rosea hung round it still. ear.

MATRIMONIAL MATTERS. Frank A. Chandler obtnined license yebterdny to marry Miss Ludema Johnson, on the 27th. Thev live in the East End. Blanche King, aged 15, was married in St.

last week, for the second time, having ben nnrried nnd divorced in lsyo, when she whs but 13 years old. Senator Martinez deltodn, a Spanish nobleman, and Mmc. Francisca Do Barrels, widow of the lata president of the Republic of Guatemala, were married in Xew.Ynrk. I). F.

Priehnrd, -17, was nnrried nt Los Angeles, last week, his ninth time. His other wives nil got divorces on the grounds of cruelty, but it was easy enough for him nlwnys to find fresh dupes. Mr. Cook Hnmline, Montgomery county widower, was so enthused nt the prospect of getting married that ho imbibed too much ou the morning of the day of his nuptials. fiance, Miss Brown, heard of it nnd refused to become his wife, showing what a sensible woman she is.

Cincinnnti girls are doing themselves proud th's year. One of them hna refused to marry count; aud by sitting In a chair over a hole in her father'a sidewalk, has prevented the planting of a hideous pole for electric wires in front of her home. A couple, who loved in youth, but were parted by cruel parent', has just been united at Washington, nged 74 and 73 respectively. Both found o'her partnera in early life and raised large families, but true love never dies and finally conqueis, though in this case it was mighty long in doing so. XKW ADVEKTISEMENT.
