give himself up to4thot marshal When questioned Davis would not talk except tb remark that Mil wasnt like shooting at a mark Davis stepfathers nane was Hand and in that way the boys with whom he grew up called him Will Hand Smith did not hesitate to tell how the matter oc curred and his story seemed to be materially substantiated by eyewitnesses to the shooting Ac cordingto his story an altercation occurred over a worthless old skift which both men wanted to use Abut which would float with neithsr and Davis drew his revolver and fired three shots before Srhithre turned the fire It terminated in a running fire Davis shooting as he ran and Smith returning the fire Smith says Davis revolver was right in his face at the first shot and that he knocked it aside T with his left hand

fPrattto again enter the political t ofJTh jofthe State who have the good of 1 the party at heart and look to the I time of harmony unity and success now turn naturally to Judge Pratt as the candidate who can carry to success the banner of good government in the State of Kentucky He has been and is now free en J tirely from any alliance or identi fication with any of the factional 11 i 1 feeling or strife that has played havoc in the past with the party in I the State Abroadgauge man an U able jurist a finished speaker a l y careful politician with unsullied U record Judge Pratt is the logical I tt candidate of the hour and with himI r in the lead the Republicans will again carry Kentucky a triumph I for which they can have no hope f if by any means the representative ofany faction should ambush and capture the nomination D l The colored men of the State arc strongly for him scarce a Republi can but will support him heartily at the polls and he commands the respect and will get the votes of sound money Democrats and others ho are dissatisfied with other can idates 1daleFlare ViolencetMore scenes exces- ive and blood thirsty violence ave been enacted at Wardner in the region of

miners and the owners of the properties where these nfen were employed Three thousand ounds of giant powder were usedS nd the property of the J Hill and Sullivan company was demolished ata loss of 250000 o 300000 It is easy to recall the denunciation of the miners union uttered recently at Pana Ill by a Meth odist preacher upon occasion of a an murdered by those who unted in the streets what they calledIIscabs and shot them own like dogs This fearless man of God denounced the mobb lawless and irresponsible men of who have determined that other men born in this land native citi ens of this great commonwealth tlbyunder the dictates of the alien officers of a lawless andanarchistic miners unionnThese western case with equal force and the preachersp definition of a scab is orld Over That part of his utterances concerning scabs will bear repeating again He said- I saw them with loaded gum searching laces of business not for criminals not for those who had been engaged in riot but for what they called the scabs mean thereby an honest man who preferred his bread to living in IdlcnessI npon the earnings of other heard them with horrible oaths exhorting ach other to shoot the heart out of him n sight A dozen armed ruffians against n unarmed man who was only endeavor ing to keep out of trouble And this I again not a criminal but an honest an whose only offense was that he chose rather to work for his daily bread than that bis family should exist upon charity or starveThe story is repeated and lays a more and greater guilt at the door f the unwise and vicious leaders of labor organizations that do deeds of yioLenceand would rob the individual of his freedom and his individuality Pratt for Governor Clitton J Pratt was born in Woodford county Illinois and came to Kentucky in boyhood His father was a native of Virginia and emigrated to Illinois in the early settlement of that State and ere the now distinguised jurist and gentleman was given birth an humble start in a life which ie was in after years to elevate and dignify by his own personal efforts and achievements of mind and heart He was reared a poor boy and his education came by his own individual hard efforts and earnest application What he is he has made himself and the hon ors and high station he has at- tainEd in the legal the judicial the intellectual the moral and the social world arc his by right of conquest for by his own good ef forts he has won them Judge Pratt studied law at Madi sonville with O Waddill and has practiced his profession continu ously there and with eminent suc cess for more than twentyfive years He has enjoyed an exceptionally large practice and gained a most enviable reputa ation as a lawyer and a speaker at the bar and before the people He was elected to the State Senate and served one term in 188182 At the expiration of this term he was tendered a renomination by both counties Hopkins and Chris tian but declined on account of the fact that the race for and the encumbency of the office would seriously interfere with his law practice In 1892 he was elected to the office of Circuit Judge in the Fourth Judicial district composed of the counties of Hopkins Caldwell Crittenden and Livingston His record pn the bench is irreproachable for ability dispatch and unbiased justice of decision An interesting incident of the mans humble beginning is the fact that one of the first men to shake Mr Pratts hand after he received the nomination for Circuit Judge was an old colored man with whom he had worked at twentyfive cents a day when a boy And the colored men are in a body enthusiastically for Judge Pratt for Governor Judge Pratt has been a consistent Republican and has kept in line with the party organization and the support of its candidates He has never

or family support they are satisfied and uch being the case how foolish it does look for them to take the advice of Boss Dilcber and throw down their shovels and beg the brother at work for food and clothing Boss Ditcher who has charge of the southern Indiana strike says the cause of trouble was the discharge of thirtysix miners at Evansville while from other sources we hear that the reason tbe men are now idle is that the operators of south ern Indiana refuse to pay the scale of wages demanded and as coal orders are few and far between during Ibe not sum mer months they close tbler mines before yielding to unjust demands A few weeks ago the miners of Arkan sas were contented the demand for their labor was good and harmony between themselves and employer prevailed But the wolf in sheeps clothing crept in among the flock and soon after the work of the agitator began to show up and discord soon took the place of peace and harmony and the result was that thousands of min ers upon whom women and children de pended for a living were persuaded to quit work and are now relying upon tbe charity of miners who are at work in other states for their daily bread which we are satisfied

herald this man to the world as a Washington and abuse their own country for punishing this incendiary and murderer If ever there was a villlan who deserved banging Aguinaldo deserves it This party claims that they could bring pros perity and wealth to the country and till the pockets of the people with Jingling dollars by legislation but the sober minded among them know better though they have

telegraph pole fell here Thurs day morning while two linemen were at its top and both narrowly escaped death A timber lying on the ground across which the pole fell saved the life of John Watkins the man who was on the un der side of the pole as it fell Andy Craig was the other man and he was thrown over the end of the pole against the ground The fall occurred on ground that was for the most part covered with railroad iron and timbers but the men Verc fortunate enough to miss all of these Watkins came from Henderson and had worked for the Cumberland Tele phone Company several months Craig is a Madisonville man Watkins was severely bruised and painfully hurt about the hips Craig was much shaken up and was bruised somewhat through the chest but was able to take care of himself as soon as he re gained consciousness Both men were unconscious for a time The accident was one that could have been avoided by a little care but men in hazardous occupations forget their hazard and take the risk So it was in this case G E Bernecker local manager for the Telephone company at Madi sonville and Lacy Parrish were also of the party They were to lower some wires and started to dig about and sink the pole two feet deeper After quite an exca vation had been made about the base of the pole which was one of Western Union line they decided to take the required two feet off the poles top Without waiting to fill the hole they had digged about the pole they mounted to its top with the result as stated Before the pole reached the ground it gave a sudden turn and the boys had no time to save themselves Louisville Earthquake- A violent earthquake scared the inhabitants of Louisville early Saturday night and lasted 15 seconds The damage was trivial There was but one shock but it was more violent than has been felt for years in this section which Prof E H Mark says is visited perhaps oftener by earthquakes than any other section of the countrySpeaking of earthquakes Prof Mark said la 1811 Kentucky was visited by a violent shock It was then that a portion ot a forest In Tennessee was transformed Into a lake now known lo Louisville iporlimen as Reelfoot Lake Frequently the seismic area will not extend over fitly miles in all directions from the center of the vibrations These earthquakes are rarely violent being caused by a slight slip in Ibe surface In the immediate lo cality The fishermen havo been abroad in the land and the water during the past week Loch Marys beautiful banks have been lined withanglers of all sizes cexes and conditions Some neat catches have been made but nothing to chronicle to the world as a record breakerThe principal beanty about this matter is that we all of us and especially those who have learned Isaac Waltons secrets or who have patience to sit and watch a cork all day with the laith that there are many fine fish at the bottqm that may be caught by bait and skill we all have a days or an hours outing at our very doors hidden away from the smoke of the town by beautiful groves and swelling and verdant hillside The recreation thus just now attained is greatly enjoyed by those who have had and still have such constant work about the

forth nioro fruit These words were epokon to cloven tnto dlsclplea whom Ho had already taught thnt they could never perish and no power could pluck them out of Ills hand John x 3720 so that wo must not sock to find hero any reference to the possible loss of tho soul It Is wholly n trticstlon of fruit bearing or otherwise and tho husband mans treatment of the fruitful and un fruitful brunches 8 Now yo nro clean through tho word which I havo spoken uto you Ho had told them In chapter xlll 10 that they wcro clean every vhlt thus describing their standing In urn accepted In tho Be loved Eph I 0 But Ho also referred ton need of constant cleansing In dally life because of contact with tho world This Is spoken of also In chapter ivll 17 and Eph v 20 There Is n sanctification that Is ours by tho one offering of Christ once for all and all who are justified are also sanctified neb x 10 14 I Cor vi 11 4IfAbide In Mo and I In you As tho brunch cannot bear fruit of Itself except It abide In tho

host wrought all our works for us II Every where the teaching is that wo havo tho treasure in earthen vessels that tho excel lency of tho power tony bo of God anti not of us II Cor Iv 7 How then shall wo abide Hudson Taylor says that ho made great efforts to abide until ho saw that it needed weakness and not strength to abide G I nm tho vine yo are tho branches Ho that nbldcth in Mo and I In him tho same bringcth forth much fruit for with out Mo yo can do nothing II Tho margin says severed from Mo Yet many try to do much that they call good apart from Him But He says It is nil nothing It may bo a great nothing or n small noth ing but unless Ho does it through us it will bo only wood hay and stubble to bo burned up and result in nothing but loss Is it not wonderful to consider that tho vino makes itself dependent upon tho branches to bear fruit Grapes aro never gathered from tho main stem of the vine but always from tho branches now growth CJ If n man abide not in Mo ho Is cast forth ns n branch and Is withered and men gather thorn and cast them into tho fire and they nro burned This helps to explain tho first clause of verso 0 Tho brunches that do not bear are like the salt that hns lost its savor and Is trodden un der foot of man Math v 13 7 If yo nbluo in Mo and My words abide in you yo shall ask what yo will and it shall bo dono unto you This is about tho same as chapter xiv 13 14 and Includes tho thought of being about Ills business and seeking only Ills glory Abiding in Him includes our weakness yielded to Ills strength Ills strength made perfect in our weakness Ills life made manifest by His Spirit in us Tho Spirit works through and by tho word 8 Herein is My Father glorified that yo bear much fruit so shall yo bo My disciples In chapter vIII 31 Ho said If yo continue In My word then nro yo My disciples indeed II Tho word in us will cause us to continue in Ills word and by tho word and the Spirit we shall bo filled with tho fruits of

II Doyle Topic How shall we divide our time Eccl ill 1li Tho proper use of cnr time Is one of the most important duties of life It is a gift of God which onco gono never returns Our success in lifo depends upon our ability to properly divide and properly use the time which God allots to us In these days when tho demands upon tho time of those who are active and industrious are BO multitudinous the question of tho proper dividing of time becomes nIl the more important Alfred the Great of England divided his day into three periods of eight hours each one period for work a second for recreation and tho third for sleep Thus ho accomplished much in life Tho wise man in the topical reference teaches us that God has set a time for all things The changes that ate going on in life are constant and yet nothing is dono haphazardly or without system There is a time for every work of God and each comes in its season If God finds it necessary in order to carry out His purposes in life to have a timo and a season for everything how much moro certain it ia that if we aro to ac complish tho purpose for which God made us wo must have a time for tho duties of lifo and perform them at their timeJust how each ono is to divide his time is n question that he only can decide But thero aro certain principles which should have due influence upon all in the use of time 1 We should use our time in conformity to the will of God Time is n precious gift of God that should be consecrated to Him just as we consecrate our money or our talents to Him 2 In the division and use of our timo ample provision should bo made for all religious duties and devotions Tho spiritual is often neglected for tho material and sacrificed for that which is of less importance Many who allot sufficient time each day for the feeding of the body snake no provision for the soul yet it is just as necessary that tho soul should be fed as tho body 8 Wo should divide and use our timq in the light of eternity in view of tho fact that time will some time end and we shall bo called upon to render an account for the uso we havo made of it We should strive to use each moment hour and day of our lives as we shall wish wo bad used them when tho end of our time here comes No better motto or rule for the proper division and uso of time could bo suggested than that Bible Headings Ps xzxiz 15 zc 1013 EccL xli 1 Isa

order to impress this subject upon our minds has given us hundreds of promises bear ing on the subject We do well to collect thoso promises and keep them in our minds And yet wo will bear in mind that if there werebut ono prom iso the Lord would hold Himself bound to fulfill that one just as fully as though tho promises were snare numerous Let us got hold of one good prom iso in every matter of religious experience and Ictus hold on to it just as tenaciously AS though wo had a hun dred Christian Standard A Christian should be a striking like ness of Jesus Christ You have read lives of Christ

Harpers Magazine When Washington one day rid ing along his lines saw the fringed hunting shirts ol the Virginians approaching the reserve of his naturally undemonstrative nature broke down At the sight he stopped the riflemen drew nearer und their commander stepping in front nude the military salute ex claiming General from the right bank of the Potqmacl Washing ton dismounted came to met th battalion and going down the line wtth both arms extendedshook hands with the rifhmen one by one tears rolling down his cheeks as he did so He then mounted saluted and silently rode on The riflemen were at once em ployed as sharpshooters and kept the enemy continually in hot water Hitherto the British outposts had been safe enough within a stones throw of the American lines but they now found to their cost that it was almost certain death to ex pose their heads within two hundred yards ofa rifleman So fre quent became the returns of officers pickets and artillerymen shot at long range that Edmund Burke exclaimed in parliament Your officers are swept off by the rifles if they show their noses In the British camp the riflemen were called shirttail men with their cursed twisted guns the most fatal widowandorphan makers in the world Signed Articles in Newspapers E S Martin In Harpers Weekly The San Francisco newspapers arc having fun over two new laws affecting Caliafornia papers which have just gone into effect One of the new statutes prohibits cartoons The Publishers Association has determined to ignore it because the lawyers say it is unconstitu tional and cannot be enforced The other statute directs that all libel lous articles in newspapers shall be signed and the association deals with that by ordering everything in the papers to be signed except advertisements In the San Fran cisco Chronicle for April 18 the news of the paper is signed down to one line police items and obituaries The effect is amusing but the publishers dont at all mind that asI their purpose is to show the absurdity of the new law by enforcing it Col Wattersons Conundrum Prom the New York Mall and Express Col Henry Watterson of Kentucky I steps to the front with this f
