Major Alexander Lawson, of Louis
ville, a member of the staff of Major
General Bennett H. Young of tho Ken
tucky Division, U. 0. V is in Mayaville
this week soliciting aid for the Kentucky
Confederate Homo at Pewee Valley. Ho
is being assisted in his mission by Judge
Wall and other Confederate veterans of
this city. The homo was established by
the Legislature. In a lettor to Judge
Wall, Major General Young explains the
causes leading to the present condition
of affairs and the necessity to solicit
popular donations' for maintaining the
institution. He says:
"When this home was organized we
supposed that fifty men would be all
that would need its benefits. We have
now had 151 admissions, seventeen
deaths, two sent to insane asylums and
ono dismissal.
"About one-fifth of these men came
from poor houses in Kentucky, or sim
ilar institutions. The result wbb when
they came they all had to be clothed,
and there was nothing to do but put the
whole number of inmates in the Confed
erate uniform. This cost ua nearly $4,
000. Our first quarter's pay was $2,500.
The men were in rags and in Buch condi
tion that nobody was willing to have
them enter the home until they were
better clothed. We found also instead
of providing for fifty people we had to
provide for 150; buy cots, bed clothing
and other things for which the State
made no provision. We fouud also that
instead of having a home we have noth
ing but a big infirmary. The ages of the
men range from fifty-eight to ninety
four, the average age being seventy-one
years. We are going to ask the State to
increaso our per capita and build an in
firmary, as about one-fourth of the men
will be in the infirmary all the time.
"Nobody conceived of the great neces
sity for this homo until it was founded.
It was one of the greatest benefactions
and noblest charities ever created.
"We will ask our friends to help us
until the meeting of the Legislature, and
then we can secure, no doubt, a larger
per capita, and also the necessary fund
to build an infirmary, which we badly
need. For any courtesies shown- Maj r
Lawson we will be obliged "

During the balance of this month our re
ductions on what light weight clothing we
have yet on hand will more than repay the
"smart" buyers who had the patience to
"wait" until the season approaches its close.
But we find it best to sell even at loss than
carry them into next season.

Elks Fair
White Vests, white Pants, white black
banded Caps and white Shirts will be in
order. The quantities we bought these
lines in affords us to sell them for less
money than you can buy them elsewhere.
