MR. CARLISLE SYORN IN.
Kentucky Turns Out In Force
to
Honor Her Favorite Son,
Kentucky's first Senator, John Drown,
was sworn in November (5, 1702. nor
latest took tho oath today. Tho Sm-ator-clcct
entered tho Chamber in tho
company of his colleague, Senator
Illackhurn. When tho journal was
read they advanced together, Mr.
Carlisle, sworo to and subscribed the
statement required by law. Tho Vice
President shook him by the hand, Cap
tain liassett, the vcncrablo Assistant
Sorcoautat- Arms, tool: the new Senator
by tho arm and led him over to his new
desk, nt tho end of tho second row
from Iho front nod to tho right of tho
Vice President as ho faces tho Senate.
On tho desk was a fine bouquet of
Mowers sent there by Captain Htmuel
Donclson. ex Doorkeeper of tho House.
Tho first to concratulate tho new Sen
ator was Colonel Isaac Hill, tho Demo
cratlc "whip" of tho House. Tho next
was Senator Uerry or Ar
kansas, then Congressman Stone
of Kentucky and then, why more
Kcnluckians. They woro all there, and
they all shook hands wlih tho new Sen
ator as though they meant It. Logan
Caillslv, son of the distinguished ex
Speaker, was In the gallery.
An Interesting and almost amusing
Incident occurred Just after Mr.
Catllslohad ontcrcd the Chamber and
occupied n seat with his colleague.
Mr. Ingalls about tho same time
had entered and taken his
scat. He looked across the centre aisle
and saw the new Senator. Hu arose,
walked over to Mr. Carlisle, and was
tho first man of either shlu
to shako hands with him In
congratulation. As tho two men. each
tall and slender, shook hands they
smiled slightly and the entire audience.
Senators as well as other spectators,
smiled In enjoyment of a pleasant scene.
Kentucky will contiuue to hold her
leading place In the Senate. Clay,
Crittenden and Carlisle llrown, nreck
Inridge and Deck few States have had
a better list of names.

Wtw York, May 5r. A spwial to
the World from St. John, N. P., says:
A crMs In the quarrel of the ao-ealtwl
Fronth shore of Newfoundland may
stum be reached. Maddened Iry the
neflert of the English Government, ami
tbe increasing Incursions of theFrwch,
tltf nnfortunate fishermen of the West
coast, are banding together to maintain
their tights. Under the modnt rirtnHi
recently arrived at between the English
ami French Governments the captains of
the war vessels of either country are In
vested with jurisdiction over the fisher
men on the French shore, and It Is
claimed that the French are taking ad
vantage of this power to forcibly expel
Newfoundlanders from their own bays
ami harbors. A French war vessel
entered St. Oeoree's Hoy, drove out
the Newfoundland fishing schooners,
confiscated their nets. Naturally, the
most intense excitement exists, and
everywhere fishermen are arming to
protect their Interest against French
aggressions.
Her Majesty's sloop of war, Emcratd,
has been ordered to the spot. The gen
eral feeling is that, while tho confisca
tion may not In-ltself precipitate a con
flict between the Islanders and their
oppressors, It represents tho first link In
tho chain of aggressions on tho part of
tho French that must ultimately end in
an appeal to arms.

others In a drawer In his office. At night
he rarrled them to his residence where
hn kept them. Having no stamps at
the time of the receipt of the check, lie
held It for a few days. When he began
to Ittue these stamps he found that tbe
cluck was missing, and all search for
it was fruitless.
Several other articles of value were
alto missing, clearly proving a robbery.
Petty came here last Friday, and steps
were taken to prevent If possible a loss
to any oue. An Indemnifying bond,
signed by Collector A. It. lluraam,
Chief Deputy Stoue and Mr. Petty, was
given to the Lxwrenceburg Dank to se
