THURSDAY, May - 18, - 1899.
Admiral Dewey will set sail for home
in a few days. Every American will
welcome his return, but there is much
danger of the reception being overdone
lie has proven himself the true hero
in all matters so far, but the test of
his conservatism will come when he is
paraded before the thousands of shout
ing people, the blare of trumpets and
boom of the peaceful gun. Kow, if,
when under all the excitement he re
f rains from making some fool speech.
he will clinch his hold on the reputa
tion for being the greatest living
American. Ilobson and Coughlan did
deeds of daring, but, by slips of the
tongue and other thoughtless acts,
kicked all the fat into the fire and-to
day stand no higher than before the
war began. Being a strong admirer
of Dewey, we cannot help but feel
little uneasiness for fear he will say too
much, or, more than that, go to licking
the paint from the lips of giddy,
thoughtless girls.
Thebe are a number of names men
tioned in connection with republican
nomination for governor, and it now
looks like there will be a scramble for
the place. The strongest man the re
publicans have, Hon. John W. Yerkes,
says he will not run, but if the breth
ren know what is good for them, they
will tender him the nomination and
induce him to change his mind.
Hon. Jno. S. Riiea has taken the
stump for Stone. We hope the clever
little congressman will put Lancaster
on his list of appointments, as he
one of the ablest speakers in the state
as well as a typical gentleman. The
Court House will not hold the crowd
that will turn out to hear him should
he come this way.
Kentucky Palisades.
Mrs. Emily B. Bristow, of Coving
ton, owner of the famous Kentucky
Palisades at High Bridge, passed thro
.Nicholasville Saturday en route to
that resort which she will place in
readiness for the summer excursion
ists. To a reporter for the Journal
Mrs. Bristow said that the grounds
would be placed in finer condition
this season than ever before and prep
arations were being made by the Q. &
C. railroad to run a large number of
excursions to that point this summer.
The dates of the annual camp meet
ing have not been selected yet, but it
is thought that thjvregular dates will
be claimed. She is ic correspondence
with a number of ministers and lect
urers now and will offer an attractive
program. Jessamine Journal.

The Gospel Truth.
No town ever become a city because
of its natural advantages. These
things may constitute a most helpful
factor but a hustling, energetic people
to utilize these natural -advantages
and bring them"to the notice of inves
tors seeking a location and to health
seekers searching for a home. More
than this, residents of a town must-
take an active interest in all munici
pal affairs. They should use their in
fluence to make it an attractive place
to live in not only attractive in ap
pearance, but in all that goes to make
life pleasant and tolerable, Every
man that goes aray from MIddlesboro
should be a walking advertisement of
the town, and those that stay at home
should make every effort to justify his
representations. Middlesboro Rec

What a Contrast.
In Louisville Monday we had occa
sion to call upon several of the most
prominent and busiest men in the
city. The cordial manner in which
they receive callers caused us to think
of the great contrast between such
men and those high-cock-a-lorems of a
little cross-roads town. The former
have time to stop and talk to people
while the latter cannot lay down their
pens two minutes, for fear the globe
will cease revolving. We would much
prefer trying to interview the presi
dent of the United States than at
tempt to get a five minutes' chat with
a back-woods mrgul who is drawing a
salary of probably $500 a year and his
washing. We once had the honor of
talking with Speaker Reed in his.pri
vate ollice, and we gained admission
to that closely guarded retreat much
easier than we could get a five min
utes talk with the average hayseed
who thinks the welfare of the nation
is resting on his little 2x4 shoulders,
Bosh!

The large auditorium of the Chris
tian church was crowded last Sunday
ight to listen to the lecture of Mrs.
usan S. Fcssenden, of Boston. No
other services being held in town, all
denominations were represented, and
spirit of unity, noticeable in all our
W. C. T. U. meetings, prevailed. Rev.
owell, who had kindly deferred apre-
iously announced service, that the
lecture might be given in his church,
opened the meeting with devotional
exercises. Mrs. Hubble introduced the
speaker in her usual gracious manner.
The music under the leadership of
Mrs. G. M. Patterson passed off pleas
intly. A quartet, sonsisting of Messrs
R. G. Ward, Letcher Owsley, Mrs. Lo

for good upon her audience, and gave
to those who came in personal contact
with her a higher ideal of noble Chris

followed the lecture with a character

their appreciation of the evening by
responding with a generous collection

Monday and left here at 11:20. noon
The train arrived in Louisville at 4:30,
several hours before close of business

"While many of the Baptist delegates

Masonry Exposed.
An Illinois boy was asked to write
an essay on Masonry, and here is what
he wrote
"King Solomon was a man who lived
so many years in the country that he
was the whole push. He was an aw
fully wise. man, and one day two women
came to him, each holding to the leg
of a baby and nearly pulling it in two,
and each claiming it. And King Sol
omon wasn't feeling right good and he
uid; 'Why couldn't the brat have
been twins and stop this bother?' And
then he called for his machete and was
going to Weylerize the poor innocent
little baby, and give each woman
piece of it, when the real mother of
the baby said: 'Stop, Solomon, stay
thy hand. Let the old hag have it. If
I can't have a whole baby 1 won't
have any.' Then Solomon told her to
take the baby and go home and wash
its face, for he knew it was hers. He
told the other woman to go chase her
self. King Solomon built Solomon's
Temple and was the father of Masons,
He had seven hundred wives and three
hundred lady friends, and that's why
there are so many Masons in the world
My papa says King Solomon was :
warm member, and I think he was hot
stuff myself. That is all I know about
King Solomon." Exchange.
