—Catlettsburg, Ky., Democrat. S. M. Ruffner returned last night from a three weeks visit with relatives in Pittsburg, Indiana City and Parker City, Pa. Mrs. R. stopped at Lima, O. to visit a sister and two brothors and will come home next week. Mr. Ruffner says he was in a good many towns and cities while he was gone, but nose of them come up to Greenfield as a desirable place in which to live, and as a prosperous, progressive city.

J. E. Hart who was at the Spiceland Sanitarium Sunday to see his wife, is loud in his praises of that health resort. His wife is much improved in health. The waters there are a sure cure for rheumatism. New boilers and an electric light plant are being put in. The house is to be raised to a three story, so that more patients can be accommodated. Mr. Hart says that under the efficient management of Dr. Baily, the Sanitarium is acquiring a wide and substantial reputation.

At the Council meeting Friday night, the agent of the company who furnished the deep well pumps agreed to send a man here to see to the taking out and loading dn the cars the said pumps. He has failed to do so yet, and Supt. Cosby commenced taking them out today. In case they are broken while being taken out by the city, they will have to pay the damages. It would have been better to wait until the company sent a man to oversee the work. Then the city would not have been liable for any breakage that might occur. frif

as they are now doing. Tomatoes area wonderfully productive crop and yield a big revenue per acre. Our land is specially fitted for truck farming. Such a factory would enable j.eople with a small surplus of garden truck or fruit to lind a ready market for it and thus secure many an extra dollar which is now lost. The more factories or industries of this kind we secure the more other lines of business are helped out. By such a course we can better our social and educational advantages, taxes will be lowered and we will be better prepared and more fully equipped to advance and progress in all that makes toward the happiness and prosperity of a community.

Let some wide awake, enterprising, hustkng, successful, pushing men take hold of this canning factory and make some money for themselves, as it will pay a big per cent, on the investment antj do good in tlia community. Those interested should see Messrs. Gutbriage and Marshall.

Kev. 15. F. Oailey. Pastor ol the Christian Church, Has Resigned. Rsv. B. F. Dailey, who for the past two years has had charge of the CJuis^an church here, on Monday night, presented his resignation to the official board of the church and it was accepted. Next Sunday he will preach his farewell sermon here. Mr. Dailey is essentially a student and a thinker. In addition to being a regular graduate of Butler University, both in the classical'and Biblical departments, he has takeu the regular three years' post graduate course there. He will go next week to Yale College, New Haven, Conn where he will enter the senior year of the Yale Divinity School, which is the leading institution of its kind in this country. Rev. Dailey has, during his stay here, had tempting offers from other churches at a large increase in salary, but he felt like he desired a greater and more thorough preparation. He regrets leaving the congregation now, just as it is about ready to enter into its large and elegant new church, but having concluded that he did not desire to remain next year, he thought it best to go now so that he might enter Yale at the beginning of the Divinity school year.

Rev. Dailey is one of the most scholkrly and eloquent preachers ever in Greenfield and it is with regret the REPUBLICAN sees him leave our eity. A man with such a broad and liberal education and ideas is a help to any community, and it will be hard to secure his equal as a speaker. Mr. and Mrs. Dailey have made many friends during his pastorate here who will regret to see them leave. He went to Irviugtou today to make arrangements to move his household goods to their home there betore goiug East. Remember, next Sunday will be his last here and there should be a large attendance.

j. e. s.

lioolcs when but. a young practitioner by old .Too ija.ii'd, a leading criminal lawyer 111 nortljcrn Kentucky jjome ductules ago. Jihwkburn had gained some repute as a ffleade? ajnl had Ixvn compared on one or two instances to this veteran, Baird. One «i^y the young man visited tho old ono, WivO, tf lough oi a coilogo graduate, was noted for his shrewd sen.so and was a jury pleader who eouid not easily bo matched, jSfackburn found Daird's oflico almost void«of fiiniiluro and containing but two Books*—a copy of tho statutes of 1M3 and ono of the criminal code. "Whore do you your library?" inquired the visitor, lihe old man jerked his thumb in tho diruction of the two old books. "Don't over I hi\y books, .Too," he said. "They'll only I bother you." j. Like all real Kentuckians, Blackburn

Iove.iahwrseJanda.il Jus constituents linovv I it. It was probably the knowledge of this characteristic that led the authorities of a trjick, not a thousand miles from I Louisville, a few years ago, to select Blackburn as ono of the judges, the lato Senator Beck being the other. Of course it is improper for judges to bet on the horses in a race they are judging, Jmt tho two senators krid a wager all the same, the stakes being §10, and- straightway forgot they

WQJ'Q to make a decision at the close of the oo-litfest. Now, it so Ifappened that tho horses tliey were backing ran very close all tho way around the track, and neither of the backers was able to toll which was in tho lead when tho half mile post was reached.

As they camo around &io bond to tho Jjomo stretch, however, Beck's horso piittTltKl his »!so ahead, and Be'ck began excitedly yelling that ho had won. Blackburn was quieter, but ho, too, got excitod, and beforo tlio wire was reached tlio two men wero animatedly discussing tho question as to which horso would pass under first. At tho moment of passing neither ^as looking at the horses, aiid for tho life di them they could not tell how to decide fivoraco. "Whatshall wo do, Joe?" questioned Beck anxiously. "Don't worry, Jim," said Blackburn. "I guess it wasn't very close, and if we just keep quiet things will adjust themselves." It turned out that wny, luckily for the reputation of tho senators. Tho attendants put up the figures, and Blackburn saved tho reputation of feivHSPlf aiAl Book by simply nodding cordially to tlio jockeys as tliey came up. Sonator Beck used to like to toll this story, and at tho windup ho usod to add tliat ho never sat hi a judge's stand after that, being quite satisfied thenceforth with tlio accommodations furnished by tlie grand stand. Sonato# Blackburn has another qualify not entirely unknown among Kontuckians, and that is tho fondness for polysyllables which, combined with the ability to utter tlicm glibly, results in what Is known as tho "gift of gab." In his young days ho was sometimes accused of -being grandiloquent, but as he usually won his cases ho was not genorally criticised, excepting by his opponents. One of these,, wlio was beaten in this instance, by tho way, was onco moved to say in speaking ofiilackburn: "If you or I wanted to state that two and two make four, we'd bo ju^t fools enough to blurt it out in so

Hiany words,' but if Blackburn wanted to niako that statement lie would say: 'If by that particular arithmetical operation known as addition wo desired to arrive at the sum of two integers added to two integers, wo should find—and I assort this boldly, sir, and quite without* tho fear of successful contradiction—we, I repeat, would find by that particular rule of arithmetic, properly applied—and, sir, I hold mysolf personally responsible for the assertion I am about to mako—that tho sum of two given integers added to two other given integors would bo four.'

Tho man who produced this take off on Senator Blackburn was unquestionably disgruntled by defeat, but it is nevertheless true that on occasion ho h*fs been known to multiply words. It is also true, however, that when lio desires so to do ho can mako as clean and direct a statement upon tho platform as any man living. And undoubtedly his varying, abilities as ah orator havo been among his strongest points in holding tlio affections of his fellow citizens of Kentucky.

Treasures.

Among tho treasures in Lord Rostfbery's hotibe are a mantolpieco from Rubens' Hoi^e, the chandelicra from the doge^e palace pud tapestries that belonged to Cardinal Mazarin. These were Rothschild treasures, and on tho death of Baron Meyer de Rothsohild, in 1874, they camo into the possession of Hannah de Rothschild, Lord Roeebery'a wife.

GEMS IN VERSE.

A Contrast.

T\t men toiled side by side from son to son, And Loth were poor. Both sat with children when the day was dene

About tiieir door.

One 9uw the beautiful crimson cloud And shining moon. The other, with his head in sadness bowed,

Made night of noun.

One loved each tree and flower and singing bird On mount and plain. No music t-hu soul of one was stirred

By leat or ram.

One saw the good in every fellow man Ami koped the best. The other marveled at Ins Master's plan

And doubt confessed.

One, having heaven above and heaven below, Yt'as *atislii-d. Tlit) other, discontented, hved iu woe

And liooeless died.

Acquainted With Grief.

Dost know sTi'ief well? Hast known her long? long that not with fnft or smile Or ijlidiii},' footntep in the throng

She can deceive thee by her guile?

So long that, with unflinching eyes, Thou .s»mh'st to thyself apart To watch each flimsy, trosh disguise fehe plans to stub anew thy heart?

So loncj thou barrest up no door To stuy rhe cunuii} oi her feet? So long thou aiinwerest 110 more,

Lent in her ear thy cry be sweet?

Dost know the voice which she says: •'No move henceiorth our pat-ns mvide In loneliest nights, in crowded days.

I am iorevor by thy side?"1,

Then dost thou know, perchance, tlie spell The gods laid on her at her birth— The viewless gods who nnnyle well

Strnn^e love and hate of us on eartli.

Weapon and tune, the hour, tho pkico, All these are hers to take, to choose, To ive us neither rest nor grace,

Not one heart throb to miss or lose.

to do without

All these are hers, yet stands she, slavo, Helpless before our one behest. .. The pods, that we Ixs shamed not, gave

And locked tho secret in our breast.

Siio to tho gazing world must bear Our crowns ot triumph if we bid Loyal and mute our colors wear,

Sign ot her oWn forever hid.

Smile to ®ur smile, song to our song, With songs and smiles our roses fling Till men turn round every throng

To note such joyous pleasuring.

And ask next ljiorn, with eyes that lend A fervor to the words they say, "What is hor name, that radiant friftnd,

Who v.-a Iked beside you yesterday?" —Helen Hunt Jackson.

Lovers Still.

His hair as wintry snow is white Ilur trembling steps are slow His eyes havo lost their merry light-

Her elioeks their rosy glow Her hair has not its tints of gold, His voice no joyous thrill, And ypt, Chough feeble, gray and old,

They're faithful lovers still.

Since they were wed, on lawn and lea. Oft did the daisies blow, And oft across the trackless sea

Did swallows come and go. Ott were the forest branches hare, And oft in gold arrnj"ed Ott did the lilies scent the air,

The roses bloom and fade.

They've vir share of hopes and fears, Their bliss and bale, Since first whispered in her ears

A lover's tender tale. Full many a thorn amid tlie flowers Has lain upon tneir way They're had their dull November hours

As well as days of May.

But firm and true through weal and woo, Through change of time and scene, Through winter's gloom, through summer's glow,

Their faith and love have been. Together hand in hand they pass Serenely down life's lull, In hopes one grave in churchyard g-rass

ULuy hold them lovers still. —Chambers' Journal.

Lifo'n Mistakes.

Wo plant sweet flowers above tho spot Where rest our unf or gotten dead, And while tho roses bud and bloom

We beautify their lonely bed. We rear the snowy marble shaft That every passerby may learn How sacred memory keeps her trust

In votive gift and storied urn. But, oh, the hearts that ache and break Through all tho long bright summer days For some sweet word of tenderness,

Some generous and outspoken praise! And, oh, tho bitter tears that fall O'er lifo's mistakes and cruel fate, That all things which the heart most craves

Of lovo and glory come too lato! Then take tho rose that blooms today And lay it in some loving hand, And wait not till the ear grows dull

To tell tho sweet thought that you planned. One kiss on warm and loving lips

Is worth a thousand funeral flowers, And one glad day of tender love Outweighs an age of mourning hours. —D. M. Jordan.

None but the Sober Deserve the Fair. 'Twas a chivalrous bard of the olden time— An age that is rich in song and story, When valor was boasted in every clime

And love was intertwined with glory— Who sang of tho prowess of warriors bold, Of tho wondrous deeds inen do and dare, And ho wrote this thought "words of gold: "Nono hut the brave deserve tho fair." But those days are gone, and the bard is dead,

And the currents of lifo deeper run today, But the vital truth in the wtfrds he said Will live on when the wonid is old and gray. But we tell it now in another strain,

And the song is sweet with a touch of care— The same old truth in a new refrain— None but tho sober deservo the fair.

Aye, wo are as bravo as the men of old, ?. And our hearts as true and our arms as strong, And wo bow not down to the warrior bold

Who fought for lady or vanquished wrong, And woman is just as fair and true, And :valor and virtue are not less rare, Bo we sing the old song with a meaning now—

None but tho sober deserve the fair. —Yardloy Taylor Brown.

Continuity.

Our honored parent would bo ninety now, Though many a lengthened year has passed away

Since in death's harvost ho was gathered, gray. Having had enough, no doubt, to fret his brow. I never .deem hirn dead, but still endow

Him with all faculties in vigorous play, With aspirations in their fullest sway And fruitful works that hang upon life's hough.

Each year I add a new year to his days. The difference is but living hero or there In that great count where they novor die,

But,overmoro aro youthful MI their ways. No wrinkles fret from labor or from care, For all soul longiiigs blossom in the sky. -^Edward S. Creamer.

I say no man has ever* yet been half devout enough None lias over yet /adored or worshiped half enough.Jlone has begun/to think how divine.ho himself is aqd how certain the future ia. —Volt Whitman.
