New News Gatherer
We have arranged with Mr. J.
L. Sowers, a veteran newspaper
man, of Nicholasville, to come
and look after our local work.
Mr. Sowers is gifted in this line
and is a fine news gatherer. He
is a genial, courteous gentleman.
We are much pleased that we
have secured his services and feel
mat we are now in a position to
push our work. Heretofore we
have been much handicapped
with double duties, to such an ex
tent that at times our work was
onerous for two men and entirely
too heavy for us. Now we feel
so relieved that we say with much
confidence that we will give you
one of the best papers ever pub
lished in Madison county. This
is our aim and we repeat our
words, "Tell us how we can im
prove it

A Severe Loss
Col. T. E. Baldwin was a heavy
loser in the recent electrical storm
which swept over this county last
Tuesday. The lightning struck a
bunch of fine cattle for him, killing
eleven of the number valued at
about $100.00 each. No insurance
was had on the stock.
There has been greater destruc
tion in the last few weeks by
storms in Madison county than
was ever known before. This is
attributed by some to the intense
hot weather and consequent vege
table decay.

A MIGHTY THRONG
Accepts thel Invitatioa of
Richmond : Lodge No.
25,F.& A.M.
The day opened auspiciously.
A bright, cheerful sun greeted the
city and at an early hour the citi
zens were stirring themselves.
People from everywhere began to
pour into the city and early in
the day it was seen that the , city
would be overflowing, with the
yeomanry of the County and her
beaux and belles
Promptly at the appointed hour,
the line of march was formed
and the grand procession of Ma
sons marcned to tne picnic
grounds under the guidance of
James Wagers and Allen Zaring,
Grand Marshalls. -
The address of welcome, was
delivered by Judge W. R. . Shack
elford and was responded to by
Judge A J. G. Wells. Gov. J. B.
McCreary was introduced and de
livered-a splendid address full of
reminiscence. He spoke most
feelingly of the departed brethren
by whose talents the lodge grew
and who had contributed to the
history of the city, county and
state.
Preceding Gov. McCreary, Hon.
W. L. Crutcher delivered an ad
dress detailing his Masonic life.
It was replete with good ideas
and feeling expression.
Hon. David L. Jackson, Past
Grand Master, was introduced
and gave a very interesting talk
on the inner financial workings
of the Grand Lodge.
Then came the dinner hour and
a great feast had been prepared,
a feast such as good Madisonians
can and always do prepare.
After a brief recess the exer
cises were again taken up. Hon.
James Garnett, Attorney General,
made a very able address. Robt
R, Burnam was on for an address
but was unable to be present
His address which he had pre
pared, was read by Judge W. R.
Shackelford, and was a historical
account of the lodge and was a
very complete and interesting pa
per. James S. Saunders, of Stan
ford, was the final speaker and
acquitted himself with distinction.
Jim is one of the old C. U, boys
and is a hale fellow well met
Richmond Lodge No. 25 F. &
A M., received its dispensation
to organize a lodge in the city ' of
Richmond in 1812. On the 27th
day of August 1812 the Grand
Lodge of the State of Kentucky
entered this resolution, "Resolved
that a dispensation be issued for
ta lodge to De;held in the town of
Richmond, in the County of Mad
ison, to be known by the name of
Richmond Lodge, with Anthony
Rollins to be Master, Thomsis C.
Howard, Senior Warden' and
David C. Irvine, Junior Warden."
These three with six others con
stituted the membership of"- the
lodge under dispensation. . The
names of the other six are as fol
lows: James Parrish, Moses Q.
Ashby, Richard Holder, Thomas
Hanson, David Blackwell aud
Geo. C. Patrick.
Dr. Rollins was a native of
Pennsylvania, Thpmas Howard
of Virginia, and David C. Irvine
was a Virginian also. The lodge
grew, and eleven names were add
ed to the roll, among whom were
John Speed Smith, Chas. S. Todd,
Joseph Lees, Samuel Stone and
Richard Gentry. A hundred years
ago today the Grand Lodge-unanimously
passed a resolution
granting to Kicnmond Lodge a
charter, in which Thomas C. How
ard was named Master, D. C.
Irvine, Senior Warden and David t
Blackwell, Junior Warden,

Burnam, Richmond Runyon and
James Lawrence.
In 1849 the record shows that
many members were lost by rea
son of death by cholera, and the
records also show many deeds of
charity by the members.
Thompson Burnam was Master
during the period of 1850and 1860.
In 1860 and 61, eleven candidates
were initiated. W. LCrutcherand
Judge Chas. H. Breck are the only
surviving members of that ancient
period. Judge Breck never took
a degree beyond the entered ap
prentice. , j . ';.' ,
This lodge has furnished , six
grand masters to-wit: J. Speed
Smith, Ed Turner, J. Speed Smith,
Jr., R. R. Burnam, Judge Daniel
Breck, and Wm. Holloway.
This lodge also would have had
two others. Mr. A H. Shirley
was Grand Senior Warden
when he moved out of the State
and Mr. Shearer was also a grand
Senior Warden when he either
moved from the State or died.
Each would have been Grand
Master in his turn.
This Lodge also has furnished
two grand commanders of the ;
Knights Templar, Hon. S. H.
Stone and R. R. Burnam.
The lodge now numbers one
hundred and twenty-six members
and is growing rapidly. It - has a
beautiful home which it owns in
conjunction with the Royal Arch
Lodge and the Knights Templar.
