STERLING, KENTUCKY, Vice-Robinson. IHMgomery County Wins Old Tax Case in Court of Appeals. Menefee county must pay its part of the debt contracted by Montgomery county for railroad bonds issued by the latter county when what is now a part of Mene -- fee county was a part of Montgomery. The Court of Appeals reversed the judgment of the Menefee Circuit Court in the case of Montgomery county and others, and directs that Menefee county levy a tax to pay the bonds. The action in the court belou was by Montgomery county to enforce a compromise agreement entered into between Montgomery and Menefee counties for the payment of railroad bonds issued in 1853 for the Lexington & Big Sandy railroad. Montgomery county mandamus to compel a tax levy to pay iiiteiest. In the court below the petition was dismissed. A part of Menefee county was taken from Montgomery county after the issue of bonds and the Montgomery court says yt-ounthad a right to manage and control the debt for all the territory it controlled at the time of the bond issue. The court says that the action is binding on Menefee county and therefore the latter must make a tax levy on its citizens to pay its part of the interest. The burden will fall on what is known as Slate precinct and will work a great haidship on Jthe citizens living there, most of whom are comparatively poor people. The compromise agreement, interest and costs amount to over six thousand dollars, we are informed. In the lower court the case was tried by Special Judge D. B.

Mayor Samuels called the meeting to order; Mr. Henry R. Prew-it- t was chosen as Chairman and Mr. Karl W. Senif was made Secretary. Mr. Bosley, City, Engineer of Ashland, was then asked to address the meeting and toll something about the construction and cost of brick streets in his city. He said that the cost of paving material had advanced quite a good deal in recent years, and that the price bid by contractors per square yard varied slightly according to the amount of the work done; however, he said that the work done at Ashland last year cost $1.91 per square yard, including everything, and that he didn't think it would cost any moie, if as much, in Mt. Sterling. As to the construction of brick streets Mr. Bosley said lirst the streets are graded properly and rolled until a hard, oval surface is formed and then six inches of concrete is spread and allowed to set; upon this a cushion of two inches of sand is spread and then the bricks are laid and rolled with a heavy roller; upon this a thin solution of sand and cement is poured and washed down between the crevices; after this sets the street is completed. Mayor Samuels then read some letters from property owners of Ashland and Huntington setting forth the advantages of brick streets. One of these letters was from a gentleman who owns property here and ho said ho would gladly pay his part if the streets d, wide-awak- e O'Conncll, former County Clerk of this county, died with inflam connected and most widely known men in this county, and had many friends who will regret to learn of . his death.

Succombs to Heart Failure Last Miss Matlie Donnoliuc Who Died in Lexington Sunday Will Be Friday Morning at Mis Home on Holt Avenue. Buried Here To-Day. Our citizens were greatly shocked Friday moiling when it was learned that Fielder Wyatt had died at an early hour that morning, death being caused by heart failure. Mr. Wyatt had not been well for some time, but his sudden death came as a great surprise. All of his lffe he had spent in this city and was one of the best The many friends of Miss Mat-ti- e Donnohue were giieved to learn of her death in Lexington Sunday, March 5, 1911. Death .was caused by paralysis. Miss Mattie Donnohue was a native of this city and spent all of her life here until a little over a year ago when she went to Birmingham, Ala., to make her home witli her sister. For several months she had been seriously ill at a hospital in Lexington. She had spent long years of service in the Baptist church in this city and was an untiring church and Sunday School worker, having done much good for her Master. Her life was a noble and woithy one and she was ever willing and ready to help the needy. For a number of years she taught one of the highest classes in our City School and was a much loved and learned instructor. In the loss of Miss Donnohue the world loses an excellent Chiis-tia- n County Judge G. A. McCor-mic- k rejected Monday the paper offered as the last will of Esq. J. W. Henry, holding its provisions to be inconsistent and indicating a lack of testamentary capacity upon the part of Esq. Henry at the time he wrote the same. In the writing offered, the decedent undertook to dispose of his interest in the J. E. Henry farm, which he claimed to own by contract with said J. E. Henry. This, the latter denies; an appeal to the Circuit Court has been taken and the case will be a bitterly fought one.

"If the Latin compart Is signed In the United States?" "The Latin compact will not be sigued In the United States," Mr. Orlmm Interrupted. And then, aftrr a moment: "Have we received any further reports on Miss Thorne? I mean reports from our foreign agents?" The chief shook his head. "Inevitably, by some act or word, she will lead us to the prince," Mr Grimm, "and the moment ho is known to us everything plain sailing. We know she Is I a socrot agent expected a denial, b .' sue was (piite frank about It And I iml no intention whatever of placing her under arrest. I knew some one was in the adjoining room because of a slight noise in there, and I knew she knew It. She raised her voice a little, obviously for the benefit of whoever was there. From that point everything I said and did was to compel that person, whoever it was, to show himself." His chief nodded, understanding. Mr. Grimm was silent for a little, then went on: "The last possibility In my mind at that moment," he confessed, "was that the person i there was the man who Bhot Senor Alvarez. Frankly I had it might be the half an Idea that-rth- at prince In person " Suddenly his mood changed: "And now our lady of mystery may come and go as she likes because I know, even if a dozen of our men have ransacked Washington In rain for the prince, she will Inevitably lead us to him And that reminds me: I should like to borrow Blair, and Hastings, and Johnson. Please plant them so they may keep constant watch on Miss Thorne. Let them report to you, and, wherever I am, I will reach you over the 'phone." "By the way, what was in that sealed packet that was taken from Senor Alvarez?" Campbell inquired curiously. "It had something to do with somo railroad franchises," responded Mr. Orlmm as he rose. "I sealed It again and returned It to the sonor. Evidently It was not what Slgnor Petrozlnnl expected to And in fact, ho admitted It wasn't what he was looking for."

For a mile or more it wound aimlessly in and out, occasionally bisecting Its own path; finally Miss Thorne leaned forward and touched the chauffeur on the arm. "Now!" she said. The car straightened out into a Btreet of stately residences and scuttled along until the placid bosom of the Potomac came into view; besides that for a few minutes, then over the hrlt'ge to the Virginia side, in the dilapidated little city of Alexandria.

In the rear of the house, rising from an old barn, a attachments thin pole with a at the apex, thrust Its point Into the open above the dense, odorous pines. It appeared to be a wireless mast. Miss Thorne passed around the house, and entered the barn. A man came forward and kissed her a thin, little man of Indeterminate age drying his hands on a piece of cotton waste. His face was pale with the pallor of one who knows little outnnd door life, his eyes deep-se- t with some feverish Inward fire, and the thin lips were pressed together in a sharp line. Behind him was a long bench on which were scattered tools of various sorts, fantastically shaped chemical apparatus, two or three electric batteries of odd sizes, and- tanged along one end of It, In a row, were a score or more metal spheroids, a shade larger than a shell. From somewhere In the rear came the clatter of a small gasoline engine, and still farther away was an electric dynamo "Is the test arranged, Rosa?" the little man queried eagerly In Italian.

"At eight o'clock on the night of the test," she explained, still speaking Italian, "a single light will appear at the apex of the Capitol dome in Washington. That Is the signal agreed upon: If can be seen by all iu the city, and Is visible here from the window of your bedroom." "Yes, yes," he exclaimed. The feverish glitter in his eyes deepened. "If there is a fog, of course you will not attempt the test," she went on. "No, not in a fog," he put In quickly. "It must be clear." "And If it is clear you can see the light in the dome without difficulty." "And all your plans are working out well?" "Yes. And yours?" "I don't think ther Is any question but that both England and the United States will buy. Do you know what it means? Do you know what It means?" He was silent a moment, his hands working nervously. Then, with an effort: "And his Highness?" "His Highness is safe."" The subtle eyes grew misty, thoughtful for a moment, then cleared again. "He Is safe," she lepentcd. "Mexico and Venezuela wpta ?" he began. "We don't know, yet, what they will do. The Venezuelan answer is locked In the safe at the legation; I will t know what It is within hours." She was silent a little.

Mrs. Delia Maupin Alexander, wife of Roy Alexander, died at her home on Jameson street, after a continued illness, on Feb. 28, 1911. In 1896 she united with the Baptist church, living from that time the life of a devoted Christian, manifesting by her beautiful spirit and quiet consistency that she was indeed a follower of the Master. Her departure is indeed a loss to the community, but the bereavement is' felt most of all by reconvene. Confusion, almost the husband and small son who Wm.

The more you can coax your laving hens to eat and assimilate, the more material she will have to turn into eggs. This means grinding up a great deal of food, which the grit helps to do. The oyster shell furnishes lime for the eggshell, while the charcoal is good as an assistant to digestion and as bowel corrective. During the winter, if the fowls are canfined, the tendency is to overfeed with grains and underfeed with vegetable foods, which are fully as necessary for the lowls. For this purpose nothing is superior to alfalfa leaves, either dry or steamed. So is it, that eastern poultrymen are paying as high as $G5 a ton for cut alfalfa, which is not as good as the loaves, as all the hay is used in making it. Any of the 10 jt crops, sugar or stock beets, turnips or carrots, cabbage, potatoes, onions, waste apples, will be equally welcome and beneficial to the fowls. An incubator is about the iiist thing that follows an attempt to interest father in the chicken business. If he is a progressive farmer the next thing will bp a pure-brestrain of fowls replacing tne old scrub stock. The chicken business from this time forth will be on a paying basis. Go to the farmers institute and hear the newly fawakened chicken cranks talk chicken. Mother'. old fashioned way of quietly rearing a few chicks to supply table and take the places of a few old hens, is not intensive enough for the present. Do the business on a little larger scale this year. d Beef Production on High-Pric- ed ' "Sure Core" of Frozen Camp, V. Va. "I have found no medicine equal to Cardui.
