THIS foal killer wich Iris club vis-ited this place on first day of cir-cuit court, f i nd ing such a large bunch of them buyiug snide elec-tric belts anc colored watei for medicine, he gave it up; conclud-ing it was too big a job and left for parts where he could find one at a time to, whack upon the head with bis handy club. . „

The appointment of W. C. M«K I t n i / V f l jcAesat/d Dr. A <5 Nov-ell as election Commissioners for RockcasMe county is the best proof of the real virtue and benefit of the Gotbel election law. The seleciiou of these splendid gentlemen insures honest elections which we have fought, for an 1 for .this .purpose the law was passed. ^

FROM all indications England will force war upon the South Afri-can Republic. The Be rs have been chased out of their former settle-ments more than once and now England in its greed, wants to ap-proprate their present country. It is a pity they are not strong enough to thrash ihe Britons. As it is they. will, in event of war, slay thousands of tne English but the Boers jvill finally be exterminated

ADMIRAL Dewey's flagship, the Olympa, surprised everybody by steaming into New Yoik Bay T'ues,-day morning two days ahead of schedule time. The unexpected arrival created something of a pan-ic among tlie reception commit-tees, but it is not likely there will be any change in the celebration program. The bay was soon alive with crafts, bearing sightseers, whistles tooted and everybody working up to a stage ol insanity

commensurate with the importance of the occasion.

THE Expositon and Street Fair, to be held at'Loujsville. beginning October 10, will be under the au-spices of the Louisville Lodge of B. O. Elks, the members of which are bending every energy and spat-

' iag no expense to make the affair 'exceptionally attractive. A few more organization with the enter-prise displayed by the Elks and the Commercial Club would soon bring the metropolis of Kentucky out of that easy going state that has kept her away behind citrcs.lrcY inferior in population and wealth.— [Dan ville Advocate.

WE are unable to see how or why auy republican could vote for. Gen'l Taylor when he declares him-self against the seporate coafch law as he has dore. The law is a wise one and is generally endorsed by the

Mr. Taylor by be

wants the colored people to sit and mingle willi the whites. Hon. Wm. Guebel is opposed to the re-peal of this law and in a speech made at Henderson he said it was an injustice to the colored rc.ce to box them up in one en 1 of a smoking car and ofiimes require colored women to share quarters with rough men whp "are smoking and drink-ing. He declared he was in favor ol giving them equal accommoda-tions with the white people by giv-ing them 1 full coach."

FRBB SCHOLARSHIP. T h e Nashville College of law has place-ed at the disposal of the Signal scholarship for the coming vear. The only requirement fixed by the college people is that the the per-son receiving the appointment shall be of good moral character and sess a common school educ: The school has a fine faculty posed of same of the ablest lawytffs in the South, and its diploma ad-mits to the bar. The management desirts that all persons holding free scholarship shall jenter as early next month as possible. Any young man desiring to to take a course at a law school Can have this scholarship by applying a' thij^of; fice. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

THB state campaign promises to be enlivened next month though it cannot be said that it is particu-larly at this time. However, the Democratic managers believe IU keeping interest up to the highest pitch, and have-arranged lor an in-novation that is'hdped will arouse the enthusiasm of the the most ap-athetic. The program calls first {or the appearance of the Cook County Democrtic Marching Club, ap ,qx> ganization that hails from Chicago. The club will be headed by Mayor Harrison and will visit Louisville, Frankfort and Lexington, arriving at Louisville on the morning* o j October roth. On October 15, Mr. Bryan will begin his tour of the State. His itinerary has not been announced but 'as he has promised to give one week of his time to Kentucky, be will cover as much of the state as will be possible in that period. I t will be arranged, ho doubt, for him to travel by special train over the- principal railroads, making br\ef stops at the county seats and leading towns, rfrid speak-ing from the plat form of his car.

long time and thought I was past being cured. I bad spent much time and money aud suffered so much misery that I had almost de-cided to give up all hopes of re-covery and await the result, but noticing the advertisement ol Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarfhoa Re-Jiedy and also some testimonials stating how some wonderful cures had wrought by this remedy, I decided to try it.
