Gus Lastin's Estate.
The will of Gus Eastin, the widely
known turfman, was admitted to pro
bate last week at Lexington. The es
tate is valued at about $100,000, most of
which was in stocks and bonds. The
Security Trust Company qualified as ex
ecutor by giving bond of $75,000.
Special bequests, aggregating $:J0,000,
were made to nephews and nieces. The
remainder oj the estate is to be divided
equally between his grand-niece, Mrs.
Annie Lou Chick Smith, with whom he
made his home, her son, Augustin Eas
tin Smith, and his grand nephew, Geo.
C. Chick.
Both Mr. Eastin and the beneficiaries
under his will are well known in this
section of Kentucky.

How to Catch Him.
The farmer's mule had just balked in
the middle of the road when the country
doctor came along. The farmer asked
the physician if he could give him some
thing to start the animal. The doctor
said he could and, reaching down into
his medicine case, crave him some pow
ders. The mule switched his tail, toss
ed his head and started oil at a mad gal
lop down the road.
The farmer looked first at the fiying
animal and then at the doctor, and ask
ed; "How much will that medicine
cost, Doc?"
"Oh, about fifteen cents." said the
doctor.
"Well, give me a quarter's worth,
quick!" and he swallowed it, sayiug, "I
got'r ketch that mule!"
Early Disking "Makes" Corn.
More corn failures result in Kansas
from an insufficient supply of moisture,
says the Valley Farmer, than from any
other reason. Early disking is the rem
edy. The subsoil forms a large reser
voir, where an excess of water may be
stored for futute use. The spring rain
fall can be saved by stirring the ground
so it will enter freely and by keeping the
top soil worked to prevent evaporation.
If corn land is not plowed it should be
disked early in the spring. Double disk
ing is belter. Disking keeps the soil
from-drying out so rapidly. Later in the
season the moisture in the subsoil will
rise to the surface as the crop uses the
surface water. Besides preserving wa
ter, disking will help make abetter seed
bed and destroy a great many of the first
crop weeds. A littlo early work as soon
as the land is dry enough to work helps
to pull the crop through a critical period
in the summer time.

at Grand Opera House
It Costs Money.
The mansion cost almost $100,000. On
the first floor are six rooms and seven on
the second. The first floor will attract
the most attention, as on it are located
the ball-room, the banquet hall, two
drawing rooms, Gov. McCreary's private
olllce his privare diaing-rcom and the
ante-room to his office, which is but a
part of the expansive hallways. Now,
Uube, what kind of a hou-e do you live
in? Thirteen rooms, costing nearly
000 each is a fine place for your Govern
or to live in. What 1 he devil do the tax
payers want with a ball room at Frank
fort? What do they want a banquet
hall for anyway? It's a wonder they
don't have a big room for the chaplain
to hold forth in while the crowd in the
ball room is dancing and the crowd in
the banquet , hall are drinking their
extra fine wines. Dancinsr. drinking and
preaching all goins on in the Governor'9
mansion at once. And the whole paid
for by you, dear Rube Bumside Item.
What would you have, the log cabin

Fares to be Reduced by The
L&N.
A reduction of one-half a cent a mile
for passenger fares on the Louisville &
Nashville railroad in Kentucky was an
nounced by W. A. Russell, passenger
traffic manager, at Louisville.
Possibly as early a April 1, certainly
not later than May 1. according to the
announcement, the rate on the L. it N.
and on all branches and new lines, ex
cept those on which the present passen
ger rate is not remunerative, the fare
will be reduced from three cents to two
and one-half cents a mile.
This reduction applies both to intra
state and interstate traffic. Combined
w.th similar reductions in Tennessee
and in Alabama, H establishes practical
ly a two and one-half-cent rate from the
Ohio river to the Gulf of Mexico.
It is estimated that this rale reduc
tion will atfeel the passenger revenues
in Kentucky in the sum of $130,000 a
year on interstate traffic and the total
cut in passenger revenue for the three
States of Kentucky, Tennessee and Ala
bama is estimated at &KX),0'J0 a year
through this redaction of half a cent.

A Preacher's Wife.
The following may be a new law en
acted by the Kentucky Legislature. We
refer it to the probe committee:
"The minister's wife outlu to be se
lected by a committee ot Ltie church.
She should be warranted never to have
headache or neuralgia; she sttou'd hive
nerves of wire and sinews of iron; she
should never be tired. Sue should be
cheerful and intellectual; pious and do
meslic; she should be able to keep her
husband's house, darn his socks, make
his shirls, cook his dinner and copy his
sermons. She snouia keep up tiie style
of a lady on the wages of a day laborer.
aud be always at leasure for "good
works" and ready to receive morning
calls. She should be secretary of the
Band of Hope and president of the ladies'
missionary society; she should conduct
Bible classes and mothers' meetings;
should make clothing for the poor and
gruel for the sick; and, finally, she
should be pleased with everybody and
everything, and never desire any reward
beyond the satisfaction of having done
her own duty and that of other peo
ple's, too.
An Eloquent Passage.
Probably of all the beautiful and elo
quent passages ever written by the in
imitable Georgo D. Prentice, the follow
ing is the finest:
"It cannot be that earth is man's final
resting-place. It cannot be that our life
is a bubble cast by eternity to float a
moment upon its waves' and then sink
into nothingness. Else why is it that
the high and glorious aspirations which
leap like angels from the temple of our
hearts are forever wandering unsatisfied?
Why is it that the rainbow and cloud
come over us with a beauty that is not
of earth, and then pass off to leave us to
muse on their loveliness? Why is it
that the stars which 'hold their festival
around the midnight throne' are set
above the grasp of our limited faculties.
forever mocking us with their unap
proachable glory? And, finally, why is
it that bright forms of human beauty are
presented to our view and taken from
us, leaving the thousand streams of our
affection to flow back in an Alpine tor
rent upon our hearts? There is a realm
where the rainbow never fades; where
the stars will be spread: out before us
like the islands that slumber on the
ocean, and where the beautiful beings
which pass before us like shadows will
stay forever in our presence."
