IN AND ABOUT
Special Edition.
We are working on our special edi
tion to be issued next week. The vast
amount of work and worry connected
with issuing a paper like we propose
to send out has made it necessary to
employ extra help and put in extra
hours, but the present indications are
favorable to it being the best eversant
out from a Lancaster office. The bus
iness man are availing themselves of
the opportunity of getting thair wares
before the people and are bringing in
their ads. A few refuse to get in the
band wagon, prefering the tail end of
the procassion of progress. As it will
ba impossible to see everybody, these
wanting spaca had better speak at
once. Fifteen hundred extra copies
will be printed and sent out Judge
M. D. Hughes has been emploped to
help, and if the editor mis:s you, see

Mr. G M. Patterson, manager of the
Lancaster Electric Light Co., has been
negotiating with the city of Danville
in regard to putting in a plant there.
The Lancastar lights' are by far the

who havo seen many. Mr, Patterson
understands the business and our
neighbor city would be wise in giving
his offers preference.

The K. C. has recently placed in ser

Meeting Closed.
Ths meeting at the Methodist church
closed Tuesday night, Rev. Morrison
leaving the night previous. The cold
weather must have affected the. enthu
siasm, as not much was awaked. Sev
eral united with the. ohurch, however,
and some good was accomplished. The
trouble is nearly everybody belongs to
some church and seem to think this
fact alone insures a harp and pair of
wings. we believe bam Jones was
right when -he said nine-tenths should
be turned out and a new deal had all
around.
Death of Mrs. Poor.
Mrs. John Will Poor, whose serious
illness. had been mentioned in previous
issues of Tub Recohd, died at the home
of Ifer husband, CoL John Will Poor,

been ill for a long time, but boro her
suffering without ever a murmur. She
was a devout christian, and a woman
who was eyer anxious and ready to
help her friends. She will be greatly
missed in the community in whioh she
resided. The remains were interred
in the Lancaster Cemetery Friday
morning. Many Lancaster friends of
tha family exteud great sympathy for
tbe bereaved husband and family.
Dickerson-Sulton.
Miss Lillie Sutton and Mr, Ebb Dick
erson were married Wendesday after
noon at 3 o'clock at the home of the
bride. The ceremony was said by Rev.
Kuykendall, of the Fork church. The
wedding was a very quiet affair owing
to recent bareavement in the family.
Miss Sutton is the bright, attractive
and accomplished daughter of Mr. Fred
Sutton. Mr. Dickerson is a popular
business man and is engaged in a dry
goods store in Buckeye. After the
ceremony an elegant suppar was given
to the immediate members of the fam
ilies of the bride and groom by Mrs.
Jno. W. Brown. We entend congratu
lation to tne nappy pair ana wisn them
a smooth voyage through life.
Richmond Goes 11 ry.
A telegram from Richmond says the
local option election held there Satur
day in the three magisterial districts
of R'chmond, Union and Elliston, re
sulted in a victory for the drys by a
maj irity of 121. The Whisky people,
it is said, will contest the election,
claiming that as Richmond as a fourth
class city is independent of the rest of
the county. They have,, already en
gaged able counsel, and say they will
fight to the bitter on 1. Money and
whisky furnished by Louisville and
Cincinnati brewers and distillers were
freely used in the election, notwith
standing the Christian women and the
ministers of the city stayed at the
pools all day in the cold, buttonhol
ing and pleading with the voters.
Suit. Brought.
" Sunday's Courier-Journal prints the
following: "J. M. Higginbotham, ad
ministrator of the estate of M. W.John
son, brought suit yesterd.iy against
the New York Life Insurance Compa
ny for J5 ),000. 'J he action is based on
policy on the life of Mr. Johnson, issu
ed in July 1893 It is alleged that af
ter receiving the policy Mr. Johnson
returned it to the company to have it
divided into two or more policies ag
gregating the same amount The pol
icy was, it is claimed, "wrongfuily de
tained by the company, which has
since refused to deliver it up." The
administrator states that he wrote to
the defendant company on January 20,
1S97, announcing Mr. Johnson's death,
whereupon thedefendant.it is alleg
ed, answaraJ, djnying that Mr. John
son was insured in it M. W. Johnson
was a pn-minent citizen of Garrard
county, who had a very large amount
of insurance in various companies at
the time of his death, The adminis
trator is here represented by Mr. R. P.

Judging from the big victories won
by the temperance poople in various
towns recently, the saloon is fast los
ing its grip. Somerset, Monticello,
Richmond, and, in fact, ever- other
town voting on the question, went dry
by largo mnjorities. 'Jen or fifteen
years ago a fellow could get on an oc
casional jag and keep up his work, but
in recent days drinking and business
will come no nearer mixing than will
oil and water. We do not know
whether it is the qualitv or not, but
we d know "from pretty good author
ity" that a fellow ctn't keep his tank
full of whiskey and do anything else
at the same time in these davs.
