"" 'l nwmu l i. r ' ,m The Richmond Climax. WEDNESDAY. APRIL 21, 1S97. J. FOR THE ROOD SUFFERERS. Shall Richmond remain silent while other towns are sending aid to the flood suHerers in the lower Valley? That whole section is now a waste ot overflowing waters from the mighty Mississippi, which has hurst all the bulwarks of nature and the barriers of art and stretches like an ocean over the desolated country. Thousands of homes arc hidden beneath the waves, and countless millions are forever lost. Hundreds of human beings have pel ished by the flood, whilst starvation stares the survivors in the face. While neighboring towns and villages are sending aid to that stricken M'i'tion of our beloved Southland; yea. while the whol nation's heart pulses in sympathy at this awful distress, shall Madison county heed not theory of distress? The Climax has taken the initiative in the work of raising a fund for the sufferers, and will open books this morning to receive contributions, from one cent up. We acknowledge receipt of a check for $5 from 31 r. AY. S. Jones, who is really the originator of th scheme. Remember, that "He gives tlnico w ho gives quickly."

The Mink family, keepers of the toll gate on the Otter Creek pike, near town, indignantly deny the re port that they armed themselves to prevent a raid on their gate. They have not placed any firearms in their house for any such purpose, and what they have on hand aro their huntin? outfits which have been there for years. They do not anticipate trouble, have made no preparation for it, and dislike the notoriety given them. Why is it that we aro selling more men's and boys' clothing than ever before? It is easily answered. Buyers are finding out that they can buy good, all wool clothing that is cut, made and trimmed right and which are entirely free from shoddy appearance and cost them no more than they have been paying for clothing of doubtful qualities. Come and see our goods before buying. Covington & Mitchell. Killing At Berea. Ed. McIJane and Wm. Vaughn quaireled over a woman at Berea on Saturday nigt.

It sounds like a letter from home. Otherwise my health is good. My bst regards to Daniel Boone; if he has moved to Missouri remember me to his brother, Squire Roouc." They Made A Mistake. Several persons were induced to go to Lexington to purchase vehicles for family use, and fancied that they bad secured great bargains. The same vehicles could have been purchased in Richmond, as Mr. Donelson buys from the same factories, and can save purchasers the expenses of a trip from home. Trade at home, whenever you can come anyway near get ting the same bargain. It is wise, it is neighborly, it is, in a measure, living up to the Golden Rule. You depend for your living upon the people of this section, don't you? What if t ey passed you by, just for caprice? Go to see Donelson's matchless display of vehicles and you will not wish to go .away from homo to buy. Standinq ol the Teams. Team Won Lost Per. Ct Centre.... 3 0 1000 Cent.

Rrookshir. last Saturday week, and was the most remarkable freak of nature ever seen in that section. The hind legs were perfect, but there were no forelegs whatever. The shoulders were perfectly ound. Mr. Brookshiro gave the freak to a Mr. John Powell, and believes with proper care it could have been raised. It was sprightly, and made repeated efforts to arise, and when assisted to of its feet it tried to walk. The colt lived twenty-four hours, and was seen by the following gentlemen who reside in the neighborhood, between Doylesville and Ford : Raymond Shearer, John Powell, Perry Powell, W. T. Noland, Cyrus Baxter, Cyrus Raker, and several others. Mr. Crow Hz Anolher Call. The Climax has received the following letter from Kirksvillo, properly signed: Editors of the Climax: Acknowledging allthat was said in your last issue as true, in regard to Rev. Win. Crow's call to become a candidate for Superintendent of County Schools, and wishing Old Madison to be honored once more by a pure, true man, and a blue-blooded Democrat, we ask him to withdraw from that raco and to run for the Legislature. We want a man with firmness and one who will do honor to our county and State. "Man Voters." The Climax is authorized by Mr. Crow to express his profound gratitude for this additional evidence of friendship, but to decline the proposition, since the former office would be more congenial to his tastes and inclinations. He has been out of the county much of the time since his announcement for School Superintendent but says he finds a sentiment in his behalf greater than lie had hoped for. The Gibson Pictures. The Gibson pictures are in process of a successful and beautiful completion. As at least one member from many of our familes is invited to take part, it is impossible to give here a list of the different characters and scenes. All have not been asked yet and some have not been placed t so of course a perfect list cannot be published until later. We heard of a Richmond gentleman who asked what the Gibson pictures .were, so perhaps it would be well to say that those to be given here are a representation of some of the most famous of Charles Dana Gibson's beautiful drawings, in other words, 'living pictures' of the most charming character. Those who will take part have been selected as types most resemb ling the faces and figures in the Gibson pictures, and this entertainment promises to be one of the most beautiful spectacular exhibitons since the great Temple of Fame exhibition here years ago. It will occur at the Court House, on Thursday night, April 29, unless the date is changed. It is given by the ladies of the Episcopal church, assisted by a professional lady artist, and as beforelsaid, will rival in interest and beauty anything given here in late years. Col. Caperlon's Effective Speech. Col. J. W. Caperton has received many compliments upon his speech in the case of Fayette Miller's Heirs vs. the National Fraternal Union Insurance Co. .of Cincinnati. Thejcase was the most stubbornly contested of the week and resulted in a verdict for the plaintiffs, for the payment of the policy of ?o,000, with interest. Col. Caperton was of counsel for the heirs of the deceased Miller, whom he personally knew and respected. True to his instinctive fidelity to his friends and with a lofty conception of the justice of the claim, Col. Caperton met the demands of the occasion with a speech, which, for pro found feeling mingled with inimitable humor, has rarely been heard in our courts. The memory of his dead friend and the knowledge of the needs of his children, added inspiration to his effort, and when he sat down, many remarked that the case was won. Col. Caperton entered into the case with characteristic vigor, and as he never gives halfhearted support to any cause which ho believes is just, it was expected that his speech would be a feature of the trial. That the audience was not disappointed is evidenced by the compliments which Col. Caperton has been receiving The Air Ship Came This Way. The air ship, about which so much has lately been written, is said to have come this waj , and tl.e following from Sunday's Lexington Argonaut is an interesting contribution to yarns now in circulatiou. ""With" hated breaths the citizens of Irishtown last night witnessed a sight never to be forgotten in a lifetime. It was eight o'clock when Charley Hunter and Alex Oxford, railroad employes, in company with George Alverson, a butcher, were ttaveling along Manchester street toward their homes when they heard a strange, metallic noise overhead Looking up, they saw something which at first they could hardly describe. It looked like a large, winged spider. The body was cigar-shaped and had a dull, lead appeaiance. It in the vacant field near the C. S. trestle and stopped near the big Ater springs. "Hunter and his companions hastened ior ward to inspect tho strange looking vehicle, hut were met by the occupant, who had a bucket in haud and asked where he could get fresh drinking water. Securing a supply from tho spring near by, he entered the car, declining to say anything of his strange movements, and was soon soaring above the earth, sailing away iu an easterly direction toward Richmond. Hunter and his companions, joined by a number of other residents, came up town and related their experiences, and were willing to make affidavits to the truthfulness of their statements. Only Friday last the strange.looking craft was seen floating over Allensville, in the Western portion of the State, It is undoubtedly the mysterious airship which has puzzled the minds of, scientific men for some rime past, and one strange t thing in connection with it is the mys terious conduct of the occupant, who will allow no one to approach near enough to thoroughly inspect the machine, ot to telLfanythiug of the object itjbas in floating about "from place "to place; $ " y, "UiHt been ewed th airship w o der contract to the Nashville Centennial Exposition, and is on its way there. During latt night quite a number of persons who had beard of its appearance here sat up and watched until well in the morning, wtih the hope of seeing it re turn, but as far as known it failed to come back." Maggie Igo. This is an ago of speed, and increasing speed at 'that, and everything seems to be.on the go. Almost all records aro being smashed to pieces from that of an ocean steamer's time across the Atlantic down to go-as-you-please walking match. It is simply-wonderful Avhat an ago of progress this is, and there is no telling where it will stop. Speaking speed reminds us of a quite filly wo saw a few days ago. Judged from her speed this young miss is simply a wonder. She belongs to Mr. R. P. Fox, of Richmond, Ky., and has been christened Maggie Igo. She is not large, but well formed and handsome, and was foaled May 21, 169G. On April 3, when only about ten and a half months old, with very little work, she trotted nn eight of a mile on the Richmond track in seconds a 2:20 gait timed by Messrs. J." J. Neale, L. N. Neale, Jeptha Chenaul and Neale Bennett Maggie has a bold, open gait, and seems to know nothing but trot. She is sired by Mr. Fox's horse, Dr. Hooker 2:23, and out of a daughter of Wilkes Boy 2:24a; second dam byBoggs' Grey Eagle. ,Dr. Hooker is a son of Vatican 2:29 (sire of Belle Vara 2:0 Vassar 2:07 and eleven others), out of Mary Ann (dam of Robin (4) 2:20, by White's Hambletonian ; second dam Maggie, by Black Diamond. Vatican is one of the good sons of the great Belmont, son of Vara (grandam of Kremlin 2:07, etc.), by Hambletonian; second dam Venus by American Star. As Belmont was out of Belle, the greatest daughter of Mambrino Chief, it will readily be seen that Dr. Hooker has three crosses of the blood Of the Hero of Chester, backed up by both Mambrino Chief and American Star. Dr. Hooker has a natural right to sire speed, and he is siring it, as will be demonstrated by the performance of the following of his get: Dr. Conner (1), paced a half mile in 1:08; Docile (1), trotted the same distance in 1:15; Lucy Gilbert (1) trotted a half mile in 1:12; Col. Carver (1), a half in 1:18; JLuul (1), paced the same distance in 1:18, the last eighth in 17 seconds; Judge Fox (1), an eighth in 1:18J; Dr. Gilbert, an eighth in 17 seconds; and Lady French, Andy, etc.. that have all shown fast- Now, if the get of Dr. Hooker train on, which they undoubtedly will, he cannot help being a sire of both uniform and extreme speed. Kentucky "Stock Farm. The Amends Honorable. An incident out of the ordinary occurred in the Climax office last Thursday. An indignant hut beautiful littlelady walked into the building, and going directly to the associate editor, inquired: "Are you the man who wrote that piece about me and said I was the youngest teacher in the United States?" "Yes," replied that attache, "but why do you ask?" "Because," said she, with a stamp of her little foot and a toss of her golden hair, "I am not a teacher, I am only a little helper, and I don't want you to say that any more. Now, do you hear?" The Knight of the Faber and Shears promised to obey, and the little one departed with an air of conscious triumph. What the Climax said, and which has since been copied throughout the country, was iu effect that Richmond could boast of the youngest teacher in the world, in the person of little six-year-old Myra Tevis, who was last year graduated from the Kindergarten School of Miss Florence Hood, and was assisting in teaching the little folks this year. This caused the row, and hence this amende honorable we make apology most ample, retraction I most complete. To understand the significance of the incident it should be remembered that the printing office was in a the noise of the presses, the hangingof the mallet on leaden forms, the inevitable chatter ot tho printer's "devils," conspiring to distract an older person than our unexpected guest. But the ceased as she inquired for the object of her wrath, and the reception accorded her by the entire force was a triumph greater in its significance than ever was rendered to a Caaar. To borrow for another use the dictum of the poet that "all the world loves a lover," this more titan anything else ever experienced proves also the fact that all the world loves a bright and beautiful child. The foreman dropped his mallet, the "devils" 6topped the presses, the typos set down their sticks with half-lines in them, and even Old Printer White, full three-score years old and with (silvery hair, stopped his record-breaking pace to observe the denouement. Thus the effect when her presence became generally observed was remarkable. The men craned tneir necks to witness the scene, talking ceased abruptly, and the sunny-haired, blue-eyed little maiden, winning innocently from evervsoul presentsuch homage as royalty might well envy, was mistress of all she surveved. It was the same when she departed. The way was opened for her broader than before, each man nudging his neighbor to give way to the little sovereign, when to the delight of all she kissed her hand, as she walked out the door , "Bye-bye." But the best thing was the influence she left with us all. Over the big room some one could be heard telling some thing pleasant of tho little visitor's ways and looks. And for fully an hour afterwards, not only was there less noisy talk, but when it was observed that the "devils" made a bad break in their language they were sure to pull themselves together suddenly and look around to make sure that tho baby queen was not in hearing. Thus proving not only that all tho world loves a pretty child, but also the fact thnt there is a great force behind the truth when it is eaid that "a little child shall lead them." We were all better for having had the little one in our "midst, and if wishes may be horses on which she shall ride hereafter, it is to'be doubted if even a child of royalty could hope for brighter days than her liege subjects in an instant fashioned for her.
