At the regular meeting of the Council on March 4, Mr. R. M. Cald well, correspondent for the News, went before the Council, asking for an ordinance to prohibit the fowls from Tunning at large upon the streets. As the hour was late before the mat ter could be taken up and the Council "had other important business on hand and was not put in any definite form. Of course a great majority of the cit izens since then Jiave learned what was done, and some exceptions have been taken to it. This is due to the foct that the people do not undersand the nature of the ordinance. No or dinance will be introduced which will prohibit the owning or raising of I fowls within the corporate limits of Millersburg. The ordinance which wil be presented at the next regular meeting of the Council is that fowls must be kept in enclosures on the premises of those by whom they are owned and not allowed to run at large on the streets. Within the past few years many of our citizens have re moved their fences. Their lawns and flower beds are exposed to everything that travels the streets, and this ordi nance is only intended to keep the fowls off the premises. There are now and wre last summer many run ning at large in various parts of the town. Within a few days the ordi nance will be drafted and all interest ed will be called upon to sign a peti tion. This is dene at the solicitation of many of our citizens, who are in every way interested in the good of the town, and who have done much to imake the town what it is. j At a regular meeting of the City Councilu on March 4, it4 was decided to hold a meeting on Monday night, to take action on bids for the new en gine and electric dynamo which were presented at the regular meeting.

Mrs. Rebecca Kenney Dodge, aged 79 years, died at her home on the North Middletown pike, near this city, at ten o'clock, Monday evening, following a twelve days' illness. The death of Mrs. Dodge resulted from a fall received about two weeks ago, dislocating her hip. She was about 79 years of age arid had been in declining health for some time, and these facts made her recovery from the fall very doubtful from the vrst. So that her passing was not unexpected, though the news of her death was a shock to her many friends. Mrs. Dodge was the widow of the late David D-age, to whom she was married in May, 1861. Four children were born to this union, three of whom survive: Mrs. Charles Dodge and Mr. Victor Dodge, both of Lexington, and Mr. Jas. L. Dodge, of Paris, who resided with his mother. Another son, Mr. Mills Dodge, died in Lexington several years ago. Mrs. Dodge was a half-sister of Mr. Millard F. Kenney, of this city, and was a teacher in the Sunday school as long as she was physically able to attend. The funeral was held at the Pres byterian church Wednesday morning at 11 o'clock, and was largely attend ed. Her pastor, Rev. Dr. B. M. Shive. paid a beautiful and richly-Tleserved tribute to her memory, taking the word "Mother" for the subject of his remarks. Mrs. Dodge was one of the most prominent and beloved women in Bourbon county, and will be sadly missed, especially in the home and in the Presbyterian church, of which she was a faithful and active member. Those from a distance who attend ed the funeral were her daughter, Mrs. Charles Blakely, of Topeka, Kansas; Mr. and Mrs. Victor K. Dodge, Mr. Joseph B. Kenney, Mrs. Emma Hicks, Mr. and Mrs. Thornton Moore, Mr. and Mrs. John Marr, Mr. Foster Helm, Graham Kerr, all of Lexington; Mrs. Frank Ulm, of Cleve land, O.; Mrs. E. L. Davis, Mrs. H. C.

Just now, we can feel glad that the allotted life of the Ken tucky Legislaure isn' the regulaion three score and ten years. What a glorious thing that the Ar chitect of he Universe didn' have to depend on some present day contract ors for the carrying out of His plans! We'd still be somewhere TDack in the Book of Genesis. Col. Goehtals may have to stiffen his back a little to carry all the med als that are being heaped upon him. The more the merrier, say we, in a 30ft whisper through our equally soft hat. An Ohio professor says college work doesn't teach enough about city government. Maybe 'not; but we were just thinking that the more a man knows about city government the better he seems qualified to put some sort of skin game across on his be loved municipality. At a poet's banquet in Chicago one Df the speakers suggested that all the poets should be "humble and simple." Seems to us that some of them are suffering pretty severely from the sim pies already. Many a man who eats humble uie would far rather be fostering a stomach-ache on strawberry shortcake. Among those who are devoted to duty might be mentioned the protect ive tariff man. A New Jersey burglar passed up some rare wines in a house he had "burgled" and drank two bottles of milk. Hey, boy! Dust off and make ready a choice seat on the wagon close to Mr. Bryan. Report from New Albany says a citizen was made very ill by eating canned pork and beans. They should by all means be uncanned before eat ing, and we hope his oversight will not occur again. Some people when they put their best foot forward always manage to put it in a mud hole. Jumping out of the frying pan into the Are may not help matters any, but it at least affords a change of scenery. Doesn't seem at all difficult for Sen ator Fall to take a "rise." This time it is an Iowa woman that dies while laughing hard at a joke, like to have a tip on that particular piece of funniness that every once in a while proves fatal, so that in the fu ture we could put a brace on our ris ibilities whenever we see it coming. People who look before they leap often beat themselves out of a lot of good exercise. Over at Syracuse, N. ., Arthur Sharp, defending a suit for killing a neighbor's dog, answered the com plaint in eight verses of "poetry." It was more doggerelly than the dead dog. Oh, rhymed verse, what crimes of expression are committed in they name. Marconi now thinks he will be able to perfect the wireless telephone for general use. Guess we'll all be charged for regular long-distance toll service then. DINING TABLES. Thin of this beautiful dining room tables at $4.75 up to $38.50 dur ing our February and March sale. (27-tf) A.
