Thirtieth Anniversary.
"I pronounce you man and wife."
These were the words spoken to Mr.
John W. Wilson and Miss AddiePrather
on Thursday. March 29, 18S4. Sunday.
March' 29. 1914, was the thirtieth anni
versary of the occasion. The "young
couple," a little older than they were
thirty years ago, celebrated the occasion
by inviting about fifty of their friends
and relatives to "break bread" with
them. It was more than "bread-breaking"
for Mrs. Wilson served a dinner to
tempt the palate of a king or queen.
She knows how. The table was beauti
fully decorated, the centerpiece being
of Battenburg. Daffodils, white carna
tions and souvenirs added to the charm.
After many pleasant after dinner chats
the friends-went their way wishing the
"young couple" would have an anniver
sary' dinner at least once every four
months

assed tier Mxlv-Kfth milestone on the
journey of life. Her friends remember
ed her with a VPosi Card Shower." Her
children, too, did not forg t the day
Each one presented her with a gift of
flowers. It was a beautiful tribute of
love and affection, given by sons and
daughters to a devoted and fond molher,
and well deserved, too, by that faithful
molher of fortv years or more. A
dinner was served, only the immedi
ate family being present. Good-byes
and "God bless yous" were said and thus
the day ended, long to be remembered
Gov. McCreary at Winchester
Gov. McCreary opened his campaign
for U. S. Senator at Winchester Monday.
A large and enthusiastic gathering of
friends and admirers greeted him
Friends in numbers not only from Clark
county but from Madison and adjoining
counties were largely in evidence. The
Governor made a fine speech on a high
plane, no abuse, no belittling of any op
ponent. He declared that he intended
to make the contest .entirely upon his
past democratic record and his ability to
lead the party to victory in the final elec
tion of a Senator to take theplaoeof
Hon. W. O. Bradley and not upon the
demerits or the mistakes of any of his
opponents.
Just as we go to press.too late for publi
cation, we have received a copy, the full
text of his speech, which would make
good reading but for want of time and
space we cannot publish.
City Council.
Regular meeting of I he City Council
was held Thursday evening last. All
councilmen present and Mayor Kice in
the chair. Regular routine business was
taken up and disposed of. The princi
pal business was the question of build
ing of a city work house and letting by
contract the labor of city prisoners.
This question had come up at the March
meeting a month ago and at Mayor nice s
suggestion was postponed in order to al
low the taxpayers think it over
and an urgent appeal through the city
papers was made to citizens generally to
attend the Council meeting and express
fully their opinions. Afier some dis
cussion the vote was taken and resulted
in a tie. The Mayor theu voted "No"
and thus the proposition was defeated
Mayor Uice believes that under the pres
ent conditions it would be unwise for the
city to undertake the matter, that at
some future time it would perhaps be
the wisest thing to do, but not now

Death of Miss Hazel Whitlock.
When the spirit of Hazel Whit
lock took its flight and wafted its way
back to the God who eave it, the light
of a beautiful young life went out.
Miss Whitlock was the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. J. V. Whitlock, She was
stricken with pneumonia, and her
frail body could not withstand an attack
of this dread disease. From the first it
was thought that she could not recover.
She passed away afier a little more than
a week's illness, in the early hour of Fri
day morning soon after 12 o'clock.
Quietly and peacefully she passed from
life unto death.
"So softly death succeeded life in her,
She did but dream of heaven and she
was there."
Miss Whitlock was in her twenty-first
year; just budding into bright, beautiful
wamauhood.
"Standing with reluctant feet,
Where the brook and river meet.
Womanhood and childhood fleet."
Besides her father and mother, she
leaves a brother. Prof. Newlon Whit
lock, of Montana, and a sister, Mrs. O
C. Stocker. of this city, and many rela
tives and friends.
Brief funeral services were held at the
family residencs on the Tales Creek
pike Saturday afternoon, conducted by
Elders E B Barnes and C. K. Marshall
A large concourse of friends followed
her body when it was laid to rest in
Richmond Cemetery.
When the last prayer a t the grave was
ended, the last word spoken, the family
and friends moved sadly and slowly
away, leaving under a bank of flowers
the mortal remains of Hazel Whitlock.
IX MEMORIAM.
(Contributed)
"With a cherry smile and a wave of the
hand,
She has wandered in'o an unknown land,
And left us dreaming how very' fair
It needs must be, since she lingers there."
"None knew her but to love her" can
most fittingly be spoken of Hazel Whit
lock, this friend, who baa passed from
our midst.-
Her young life was singularly bright
and beautiful. Old and young were
glad to claim her as a friend, for she
possessed to a rare degree the power of
radiating happiness. To her friends she
was ever true and sympathetic; toward
all she manifested good will; she spoke
no unkind word nor cherished an un
kind feeling. Her joyous laugh, her
sweet, kind words and deeds, will remain
with all of us and make us feel the hap -
pier because it was Hazel who spoke
them.
In the lovely cemetery, which she so
often visited with her schoolmates; she
now sleeps lulled by the music of the
wind, the rustling of the leaves and the
murmuring grass, but her gentle spirit
lives behind her in the hearts of those
friends who feel with me that the Great
Gardener too truly gathers from among
His flowers, the choicest to brighten and
sweeten HU mansions above.
H. H. Colyer For State Auditor.
Our esteemed Democratic servant. II
II. Colyer, is proving to be a Statewide
reacher in securing winning endorse-
4 mems through the pushers of democracy
in support of his ambition to be State
Auditor, subject to the decision of the
Democratic primary, August, 1915.
This news is certainly gratifying to us,
as well as to all Kenluckians who know
him. The general public expression is
I "Yes; I am for Colyer for any office
I wit hin our party." If the Democratic
1 editors of Kentucky knew him as we do,
they would cheerfully assist in pushing
him to victory. The public needs just
such men as Mr. Colyer in official posi
tions. You cannot place him wrong. On in
terviewing Mr. Colyer, we received the
following report, which we are glad to
get and certainly will support. He said
J he reliable pledges made to me
from every section of the State are suf
ficient to warrant my being a strong
factor in the race, regardless of any po
laical pnmarv conditions that may
arise. I am certain that my chances to
win are exceedingly nattering. I know
that I have a reliable following in Cen
tral and Eastern Kentucky that will be
embarrassing to those that might seek
to thwart my paospects The Demo
cratic forces at home are a unit in .sup
port of my aspirations.
"My ambition to be State Auditor is
not new. I have long since felt like the
Democrats of the Stale would tell me
when the prospect had ripened for my
preferment to this office. The informa
tion now before me received from every
section of Kentucky is sufficient to war
rant the facts in my presentment. I am
certainly going to fight for my chances.
"I was born and reared in the Eleventh
District. My relatives and fr.ieuds aie
sprinkled over a laree portion of the
State. I have fought the battles of De
mocracy for years without flinching. I
knew nothing but loyalty to my party
nominess. My political record is open
for inspection. The past whispered
suspicion of what I am now stating, may
be transformed into the knowledge that
I am in to stay and will fight to win. .
"The wise, thinking army of private
voters have abolished the old time cor
rupt convention methods; and by this
noble act of freedom, every citizen to
day, whether he be a senator or wood
chopper, can now have his vote regis
tered as he desires at the polls. This
system grants equal freedom to all and
special privileges to none.
"Now, the further fact that these
rights of suffrage are granted to a.sov
ereign people, is an accepted definition
of political equality.
' I believe that every aspirant's ambi
tion should be measured by his loyalty
and party service from the beginning of
his freedom. These are a few of my
strong .reasons that have inspired me
with a confidence that a creditable ma
jority of the Democrats of Kentucky
will, m August, 191a, reward me with
the honor and authority of the office of
State Auditor."

A Live Wire.
Mr. J. S. Stanifer, the "live wire" in
the clothing business, has recentlg made
some improvements in the interior of
his business place; new shelving and
more of it, and changes in location of
certain departments of his stock. The
improvements not only make it more
convenient to the public to be served
and to the salesmen who serve them.
but it was almost a necessity to give
more room for stock in order to take
proper care of his already large and in
creasing business.

tiviiies and smoke the "Pipe of Peace."
The local tribe is one of the nest in
Kentucky and everything possible is
being done in the way of preliminary
work to make the coming event one of
the most notable gatherings in the his
tory of Redmanship. All committees
have been appointed, the ground is being
laid out for the erection of wigwams,
material is being gathered and soon the
camp fires will be started and cast the
reflection of their ruddy glow over hill
and dale and vale. A grand reception
will await the Big Chiefs upon their ar
rival and form a grand pageant of weird
and scenic beauty. There is a possibil
ity of a number of pale faces losing
their scalps when the war dance starts
and the Indian pot begins to boil.
April Court Day in Richmond.
Monday dawned with & clear sky and
beautiful sunshine. There was a laree

from $100 to $227.50 per head. At the
stock yards there were about 1,200 cat
tle on the market. They also sold at
good prices, ranging from 4 to 9 cents
per pound. Theie were only about one
car of sheep, which brought a good
i price.
Hogs brought about 8 cents per
The number on market was not
1 pound
large. There were also sold at auction
a good- number ot buggies and cneap
horses and mules. ' Altogether the day
was not an extra brisk one though much
business was done. '
