Another Drive in Winter Overcoats. We don't jump into a wagon for our lug drive in winter overcoats nor have •we any use for a saddle, but be cannot get along without a whip and we must have spurs. Does this mystify you? If it. does you will see the point in a moment. We are nourishing the whip of fine material and fine workmanship and wo are driving in the spurs of lowprices. If ever there was a time for imying overcoats it is here now and there certainly never was a time when von could liuv to such unusual advantage to yourself.

Surprise Party.

Last evening a large number of the friends of Miss Lizzie Booher tendered her a surprise at her beautiful hotne, 80" east Jefferson street. Elegant refreshments were served and everything was done that was possible to make her guests enjoy themselves and the occasion will always lie remembered by pleasant recollections. The party was in honor of Miss Booher^s 19th birthday anniversary.

The Patriotic Order-

There was n: large attendance at the meeting of the Patriotic Order Sons of America last evening nnd four received the tinal degree—W. M. Scott. J. A. McClure, T. F. Albright and J. S. Stover. The new degree work will be commenced uext Tuesday evening, and all the members tire earnestly requested to be present. On next Sunday evening the members of this order will attend divine services at the Christian church, nnd it is be hoped that there will be a large turnout. The church will be draped with (lags and bunting in an artis'.ic manner. The members will please meet at the hall of Camp at 7 o'clock Sunday evening, and go in a liody to the church. Special music will be prepared for the occasion, nod the public is invited to participate in these services.

The Whitney Mockridge Concert. Next Tuesday evening the Y. M. C. A. lecture course opens with the Whitney Mockridge Concert Company. Mr. Moekridge has for the past live years been the leading tenor of nearly all the large musical festivals held in this country. The Worcester. Mass., festivals has secured him no less than four times to do their leading work, a compliment which speaks for itself. In 1882 he went to London and was engaged by the Carl-Rosa Opera Company for leading roles and when the far-famed American Opera Company was first founded, Mr. Mockridge was chosen personally by Theo. Thomas to divide the leading work with Herr. Candidus. He has had recent oilers from nearly all the leading American 0|xu'a Companies, but prefers to sing in oratorio and concert. This company is unquestionably one of the most artistic musical attractions before the public. Mr. Moekridge having personally selected his artists with great care. Supported by Mrs. Rhodes, Miss

Botsford and Arthur Beresford, Mr. Mockridge has now one of the best concert companies in the world. Seats may Vie reserved next Saturday morning.

They Due Buck Stout's Grave. Dan Simins, a well known attorney of Covington, is in the city and this mornint* was in the circuit court room. He walked up to the court stenographer, Will While, ayd afler the usual salutioiis exclaimed. "Billy, do you retnember the day we dug Buck Stout's grave"'" There was a general laugh and after it the story had tti come out. The boys were nt the time of Hie execution of Buck Stout attending a miner normal at Waynetown and hearing that the groat murderer was to be buried at Wesley a few miles away, they trudged off along the hot, dusty road to the cemetery to witness the ceremonies and. if possible get a peep at the body which had stretched hemp so admirably. They arrived at the cemetery several hours before the time set for the interment, and thero made a discovery. By some mistake or other the grave had not been dug and as there was no vault, quite a scene was promised when the remains reached the place. The young men were equal to the occasion, however, and throwing off their coats proceeded to dig the grave. The day was broiling hot, and no shad in sight, but for all that Dan and Billy plunged in and made the earth fly. They dug the grave both wide and deep a.id had just completed the work when the procession rolled up. In spite of all the boys had done the body was lowered and buried without they being allowed a glimpse ot it. So they have- always kept mum about digging a grave for a man thew never saw.

Pretty Tough on the Doctor. A special to the Indianapolis Jvurual from Frankfort says:

Dr. W. H. St. John Rosa. well known as an oculist throughout the country, was arrested in this city, on a charge of bigamy, preferred by'Mrs. St. John Rosa, ^his alleged second wile. Mrs. Rosa and the specialist were married at Fort Wayne, two years ago. She claims to have recently discovered that her husband's true name is simply William H. Jones, instead of the more highsounding W. II. St John Rosa. She aiso says the doctor has a wife and three children at Kalamazoo, Mich. When confronted with his identity, St. John was disposed to deny, but the little woman seems to have been too much for him. She has an abundance of evidence to satisfy the authorities here of the old man's guilt. The doctor brought his wife to Frankfort three months ago, and lias since been making this city his headquarters while visiting other town of the State. Ho is a digritied looking old gentleman, aged seven ty years, while his wife is thirty-live years his junior. Among' the items composing his vast wealth, which he likes to refer to, is his alleged handsome country residence, valued at 8'27.000. situated on the Hudson. He'is in jail.

A year ago Dr. Jones was engaged as an oculist here. He has been in Frankfort for some months. While here Mrs. Jones made a mash on Pettit who was then on trial here.

A Conflagration Averted.

John Bischof was not in his room last night,or at least he was not after eight o'clock. At that time he went up .and in some way dropped a lighted match behind his wood box. This set fire to some bcraps of wood and paper,and very soon tho fire had burned through the floor and the ceiling of the store room below. It smouldered along and soon the whole bnilding was full or smoke. Bob Jackson nnd John Ftillen began a systematic search for the fire and had to break open several doors to do so. Bischofs room was broken into, but tho fire was not discovered there as the wood box hid it from view. After several hours' search Bischofs room was again entered, and as the lire was beginning to blaze up through the floor it was discovered and extinguished. Tho wonder is that the whole building was not consumed, and if Mr. Bischof. had left a window slightly up so tl.at air could have gotten to the fire it would have been all day with the Joel block. Such carelessness is deserving of the greatest (irn.miro,

A Contrary Mule,

W.T. Amos, who is delivering the service pipe over the city, has in his possession and employ a large, lop eared forty-two calibre mule which is the bane of his existence. This mule was evi dently disappointed in love when as colt it roamed over the blue grasv fields of old Kentucky. At any rate it made up its mini] long since to be contrary It is continually stopping before it is requested and when argued with by means of a club it makes a break for the side walk down which it promenades at a wondrous rate, using tho wagon be-! hind it to bark the shade trees and peel the pickets off the fences, ft has a decided taste for leather too, and when not watched delights to reach around and chew tho harness off its back. It, never kicks unless a good target is presented and this it always- strikes full center.

It is only a sad-eyed mule hut it more terror for the natural gas than mud, cold weather and a option law combined.
