who "runs" the

woman ; all that tho courts have said

to the coutrary notwithstanding.

But to my point. Montgomerycounty is put down as having 3,178

white school children, by which

meant children enrolled a* attendants

of the pnblie schools. Of this num.

ber, 1,076 are enrolled attendants of

various sunday schools of the

county. In other words only about

one-third of the children whose names

are inscribed on the rolls of the public

schools, attend Sunday school at,

And since the average attendance is

generally about two-thirds tho enroll-

ment, only 718 young folks, at the

outside figure, are instructed regularly

the Sunday school. This is a little

er one-half the enrolled member-

ship of the white churches iu MLSterling. Now

"

ing; particularly

viction is that the total membership

the Sunday schools of the county,

teachers and all, is not in fact over

six or seven hundred. Statistics are

deceiving, especially when made up as

such, since every school desires to

make the best possible showing.

Hence, I repeat, that the real state of

facts is worse and not better than th*

figures seem to show. Nor are our

neighbors better than we. A glance

at the tabulated statistics of the min-

utes, reveals the fact that Bath county

is worse off than we, and but few af

the blue grass counties better. So I

am not crying down our grand old

county. Nor am I uttering a pessi-

mistic w ail, but I write because I amhopelul of better things.

This condition is distressing for the

reason that unless the children arc

taught the bib'.ein the Sunday schools,

they go through life with little or no

knowledge of it at all. Mind you I speak

of the young folks of this generation

and most- earnestly ask, is this not

true? Much may be learned from

the preacher and much at home. But

speaking generally, reverence for

God's word and taste for reading it,

not to speak of actual familiarity with

many passages, can be acquired in

this busy age only in the Sunday

schools. This is the actual condition

of things, the cold, hard facts, not as

they ought to be, but as they

While it is theoretically possible to

loam at home and from private read-

ing, there arc so many other things to

attend to that even the most religious

find it well nigh impossible to get

time to teach the children the Bible.

And this step proves that they meant

to teach and can do so. It says uoth-

iug about ability or inclination or

even willingness. Now everybody of

good hard sense concedes the Bible to

be God's word—the revelation of his

will concerning us. Then is it not to

indifference that wo must attribute

this light attendance on tho Suuday

schools ? It Is not opposition—that is

about dead—but indifference, and

that, not chiefly of the children but of

the parents. There are times when

tho most restless boy desires to attend

Sunday school, but he does not go

because his parents are so indifferent,

or careless or lazy that they never

give the little fellow tho slightest en-

couragement. Now is not this indif-

ferenco criminal? A man who can

send his boy or girl to tho secular

schools and does not do it, is put

down by his fellows as guilty of gross

leglect of duty. By some he is

counted unworthy to havo children,

and, to my thinking, such a "wretch

concentered all In self," can't bo cen-

sured too highly. What thon shall be

said of the parents, who conceding

that tho Christian life is desirable

above all else for their children,

day school is turned into a monkeyw. Thank God that is seldom done.

My fellow citizens of Montgomeryinty think of theso things I beseech

'ou. Encourage your children, per-

auade them, constrain them, to attend

blame them for not attending of their'

Own will, and if they fall into crime

In the years of their youth, don't goaround mouthing about the law of the

land and the looseness of morals in the

community, but blame your own stu-

pendous folly. There are people in

this country who actually take moreintelligent and discriminating care of

their stock than of their children ; andwomen who are too iudolont and in-

different to get the little ones ready for

Working Women and Their Place

To-Dav-

The proportion of women whose

daily lot is hard labor ofsome kind or

other is not greater now than it has

been in other periods. On the con-

trary, it is probably smaller. But at

no former time has the wage-earning

woman been so distinct a social and

economic factox\ Woman's workwas formerly hedged in very closely

by domestic condition. Her life v.ras

a part of the life of some family, and

as an unattached industrial unit she

was practically non-existent. Newerconditions have obviously changed

this; and every city has its army of

young working women seeking an

independent livelihood, just as it

its larger army of young men. Thearmy of young working men in great

towns, young men wholly unattached

and fighting the battle of life upon

their individual resources, has not

been very long recognized as a distinct

social clemenL and one for which pe-

culiar provisions should be made.

But iU recognition has been more

goneral, and there has been better pro-

visions made for it than for the other

army of young working-women.

Yet the position of the young womenis much the more difficult. Tho kinds

of work open to women are not half so

numerous as those that young mencan enter. And women's wages

average little more than half as muchas their brothers'. Tho practical diffi-

culties iu the way of procuring em-

ployment are especial'y great for

young women, and conventional

obstacles lie everywhere. Tho rights,

tho needs, the wants of working-girls

call for agitation and for organized

action. And iu many ways tho move-

ment has begun.—Albert Shaw, in

Mr. Dunstan, a naturalist, has lately

returned from Central America,

where he spent two years in the study

of the plants and animals of those re-

gions. In one of the swamps whichind the great Nicaragua Lake,

he discoved the singular growth of

h we are writing. "He was en-

gaged in hunting for botanical and

gical specimens, when he

heard his dog cry out, as if in agony,

from a distance. Running to the

ipot whence the animal's cries came,

Mr. Dunstan found him enveloped in

a perfect network of what seemed to

be a fine, rope-lie tissue of roots andfibres. The plant or vine seemed

entirely composed of bare, interlacing

stems, resembling, more than any-

thing else, the branches of the weep-

ing-willow denuded of its foilagc, bui

of a dark, nearly black hue, and cov-

ered with a thick, viscid gum that

exuded from the pores. "Drawing hi»

knife, Mr. Dunstan attempted to cut

tho poor beast free ; but it was with

the greatest difficulty that he managedto sever the fleshy muscular fibres of

the plant. When the dog was ex-

tracted from the coils of the plant,

Mr. Dunstan saw, to his horror and

amazement, that the dog's body wasblood-stained, while the skin ap-

peared to have been actually sucked

or puckered in spots," and the animal

staggered as if from exhaustion. "In

cutting the vine, the twigs curled like

living, sinous fingers about Mr. Dun-stan's hand, and it required no slight

force to free the member from its

linging grasp, which left the flesh

red and blistered- The gum exuding

from the vine was of a grayish-dark

tinge remarkably adhesive, and of a

disagreeable odor, powerful and nau-

seating to inhale." The natives, weare told, showed the greatest horror of

the plant, which, as we have noted

above, they called the "deviln snare,"

and they recounted to the naturalist

many stories of its death dealing

powers. Mr. Dunstan, we arc told,

was able to discover very little about

the nature of the plant, owing to the

difficulty of handling it, for its grasp

can only be shaken off with the loss

of skin, and even of flesh. As near as

he could ascertain, however, its powors of suction is contained "in a namber of infinitesimal mouths or little

suckers, which, ordinarily closed, open

for the reception of food." "If the

Mt. Sterling, Ky., Feb. 20.—The sen-

sation of the season occurred in front

of the National Hotel in this city at a

late hour last night.

A young society man and would-be

critic on the Leader, came to Mt. Sterl-

ing about a month ago to attend a

ball and banquet, and in his report of

the affair in the next day's Leader, he

very severe and made all sorts of

unkind remarks about the supper.

Among other things, he said : "The

supper was rotten, but I suppose it

was owing to the fact that they had

Mr. Thomas is not in the legislatu

thinks will reflect honor on his State.

A former legislature appropriated a

large sum of money to bring Jeel T.

Hart's body home and now some

members of this one refuse to vote

91,000 to mark the spot where his

body is laid.

Governor Brown has wisely offered'

a reward of $200, for the capture of

Berry Turner. This, in addition to

the $100 offered by the Patrons, makes

a reward of $300 offered. Turner and

his gang were last heard from at

"South America," not far from P

ville. Another fight is expected be

tween the Turner and Patron factions.

Frank Martin, one of the famous

Parton faction, is locked up at Middlos-

boro for shooting W. T. Brooks, one

of the Turner faction, on the 15th.

Brooks was pawing » cabin on Stony

Fork, when Martin >tepped out and

»aid he should not pass. He was

armed with a rifle and shot Brooks ii

the groin, from which Brooks will

probably die. Martin escaped, but

The following special from Owings-

vill to the Courier-Journal, gives an

account of an attempted jail delivery

Saturday night : "About 12 o'clock

night a mob of fifty or sixty

masked men called at the jail in this

place, claiming to have a prisoner to

lock up. Jailer D. S. Nixon was sus-

picious, however, and refused to let

them in. The mob then revealed

their true intentions by breaking

down the front door of the jail and

rushing in, saying they wanted and

intended to have a man confined

there, at the same time firing toward

the head of the stairs, where the jailer

and his son Will were stationed.

The jailer returned the fire as fast

i he could, and the mob proceeded to

disperse as rapidly as they could get

out. It is not known whether any of

Last night the same young critic fer in their belief as to whocame up and gave a box party at the

Opera House and of course, put on a

lot of style, as city boys generally do

at a show in a small town. The Wilbur

Opera Company seemed to have special

attractions for him as he had followed

the girls te this city after witnessing

their performances every night for a

week in Lexington.

Criticism aside and back to the facts

:

He was here and after the show he

started to the National Hotel, but the

light was dark and the boys were out

vlth their pockets filled with eggs and

when the young critic was near the

hotel they let fly their spring-time

missiles and covered his brown

pants and all, with shells, white and

yellow until he cried "enough." But

the boys yelled: "d be he whocries enough."

The screams of the young man at-

racted the attention of the police whorushed to the scene in time to see a

loud pair of pants making their escape

through the front door into the hotel

office and hear a rauffied laugh in the

darkness near the new Court House.

The young man was shown to his

room where he was groomed up in

passible shape and he retired a wiser,

if not a more discreet man.

No arrests were made up to six

o'clock this afternoon and from pres-

ent indications there will be no extra

exertions made by the police to bring

the guilty parties to justice.

Eggs are still firm and range from

18 to 20c; market brisk. Weather

MT. STERLING ADVOCATE. TUESDAY. FEBRUARY 23,1892.

THE ADVOCATE,HORSE AND TRACK.

Blue Grass Hark. Winchester, Ky.

MwrH.Dean & Herriott, In 1889 de-

tennincd to establish a stock farm for

the purpose of breeding and develop-

ing trotters. They hare built a fine

three-quarter mile track on the farm

and arc as well equipped for the busi-

ness as any farm in the country. In

purchasing a stallion they selected

Algeria Wilkes, (sire of Hussar, 2 :21,

and Jessie Wilkes, 2 :29) a horse bred

in tho purple, and a gcod individual.

1U was sired by Alcyone, 2 :27, that

great son of Geo. Wilkes, and the

* noted brood maro Alma Mater, the

dam of five in the list, including the

great Alcantara, for whom $60,000 has

been offered. Algeria's dam Gossip,

(dam of Don Wilkes, 2 :24) is by Tat-

tler, one of the best sons of Pilot jr. 12.

A horse whose name is great wherever

trotters are known. His second damIs the grand old mare Jessie Pepper,

(dam of Iona, 2 Mi, Alpha, 2:23$ and

five producing daughters) and one of

the best daughters of Mambrino Chief,

whose blood is pure gold for speed and

racing qualities. No one can deny

but that in Algeria Wilkes Bean &Herriott have a great bred one. Their

brood mares are bred in royal lines,

having some twenty-five matrons by

r

such sires as Mambrino Patchen, KingRene, Mambrino Time, Bourbon

Wilkes, Forest Wilkes, rientinel,YoungJim, Clearmont, Haralet, Sentinel

Wilkes, &c. It is almost a certainty

that Algeria Wilkes will make a great

sirp, having such mares in the stud.

Parties breeding to a stallion should

look at the opportunities he will have

when breeding to him. Blue Grass

Park has the best of mares ; train the

*broduce and patrons breeding to their

horse reap the results with the owners.

Algeria Wilkes* service fee is low and

you will make a mistake if you do not

book some of your mares to him.

paper.

The dam of McKiuney 2 :12|, is in

foal to Baron Wilkes.

* Horse buyers say that the demandfor good, sound, smooth dri vers far ex-

it

ceodsthe supply.

In 1880 Red Wilkes stood at a fee

of$20bythe season or $30 to insure.

^A'bis year his fee is 81,000.

jf* When breaking the colts teach them

to walk fast. No gait is more desii

ble in a road horse than a fast walk,

The late sales show that animals

must combine individual merit with

approved blood lines in order to bring

good prices. -e»

As long a,, millionaires are willing

to invest part of their surplus in high

bred trotting stock, there will be

money in raising that class of horses.

' Don't imagine that time spent

,fixing up about the stable, grooming

stock, cleaning harness, etc., is lost

Mime. It makes and saves money* both.

A. H. Moore, Philadelphia, has of-

fered Graham & Conley $35,000 for

Constantine, but they declined to en-

tertain the proposition. He cost $27,-

000 at Woodard's sale.

Mr. Davis has insured his great

horse Alcantara against death by

disease or accident for $40,000. Thepremium on this amounts, it is said,

to $3,200 a rear.

Above all things in breeding, don't

waste any time with a poor or indif-

ferent mare. Common horses are bo

plenty that only good ones are in de-

mand and bring fair prices.

It is the opinion of experienced

'ti horsemen that a colt cannot get too

tjlf fat before he is two years old. Hecan be fed all that he will eat up to

that age without injury, provided, of

course, that he is given plenty ef

At Harrodsburg Mr. Nimrod Buster

sold to St. Louis parties hit se

year old gelding, Dandy Jim, for a

price not made public. It is under-

stood Mr. Buster had refused $5,0C0

for him, and it is believed he will

get a record of 2 :12 or better this

season. Crit Davie developed him.

The February sales have already

proven to the breeders of Kentucky

that, nothing but a royally bred colt

with speed and good looks will do in

these days for a stallion. The market

for good roadsters is excellent and

\«ur breeders will'make a great mis-

ifcake if they do not have more road

rses and less common stallions.

The Southern Farm, San Leandro,

Cal., has built a swimming tank in

which to train its horses. While it

may be a good thing for cripples

muscle-wore horses it cannot ever be

of much use for youngsters that are

sound, as walking the earth is good

enough for them.

George W. Leavitt, who is one of

the best judges of trotting horses"

comes to Kentucky, says Ralph Wilkes

would be a cheap horse at $60,000 the

way stallions are selling. He says he

Is perfectly sound, and in his opinion

me of the best individuals he ever

jaw.

Mrs. C. R. Noyes, of Boston, has the

courage and foresight of which

cessful breeders are made. She has

booked Marinette, by Directer,

Arion at $2,500. Marinette produced

a magnificent filly by Axtell, 2:12,

season and is expected to produce

a foal by Nelson, 2:10, next summer.

A foal by Arion from her would sell

for a Bit

The first two trotters to enter the

2 :30 list in '92 are Fred Drake, by Joe

Gavin, and Bric-a-Brac, a three-year-

old Alcazar filly. Fred Drake made a

record of 2 :27f and B-ic-a-Bi ac, 2 :29}

in a match race on the 20th inst.

California has thus 6ct the ball rolling,

and when the blizzards in the East are

over in a few months thoir colts will

begin to swell the list.

The many friends ofBudd Doble

will be pleased to learn that the great

driver has completely recovered from

the illness that for a time last sumprevented him from driving in a few

races. "I was never better in my life

than now," said Doble the other day,

"and shall this year give my personal

attention to every horse intrusted to

me, and drive all the races in which

my stable is engaged."

Mr. William Peters, of Independence,

Mo., is here on a visit to his old home.

Mr. Peters is a son of A. G. Peters,

who, during life time was considered

one of the best horse men in Kentucky.

Our friend Will is much like his father

and is one of the best horsemen in the

country. He will remain here and

handle horses if he has sufficient in-

ducements offered. We hope he will

stay with us as Kentucky cannot af-

ford to have such a man leave her

borders.

As to the actual amount of gas pro-

duced it is difficult to obtain exact

figures; too many people are inter-

ested in concealing or misstating the

facts. But one tendency cannot be

overlooked, the gradual withdrawal

of gas for other uses than domes-

tic heating and cooking. The de-

mand from this source alone is al-

ready equal to the supply, especially

if conservative notions prevail in re-

gard to it permanence. Such use

permits of better prices than to main-

tain factories, buill to sell town lots,

need be no fears that coal mining will

be a lost art. But we are inclined to

think that the present tendency is

mainly a halt of reaction, and that

natural gas has come to stay. Just

now its uses are merely suggestive of

the future. It brings to us fuel in the

most convenient form—the refined

It is still the age ot steam aud coal,

and there are indications too plaii

be disregarded that the coal fire is to

remain under special conditions only,

just as the wiudmill and the waterheel retain a place in the world'

economy. Who, then, can say tha

the age of gas is not yet to come ?

by either boiling or steaming themwith pumpkins. If to this combina-

tion is added wheat bran and all the

corn the hogs will eat, it is

im.cjue

the addition of all the milk they will

Solidified Petroleum Fuel.

The value of petroleum as a fuel

has lod to several attempts to solidify

it, and thus to render it n

ieut to use than when in the liqnid

The most recent method of

doing this is that of Mr. Chdemonstration of whose ii

was given recently at the works of

the Solidified Petroleum (Pioneer)

Corporation, Gainsboro road, Hack-ney Wick. The process of conversion

is very simple and rapid.

A given quantity of crude petro-

leum is first drawn off into a vessel,

and with it is mized about 15 per

cent, of certain chemicals, whichare in themselves largely combustible.

The vessel containing the mixture is

then ylaced for a short time in boiling

water, which causes fusion to take

place. The vessel is then transferred

to a furnace, having a temperature of

from 400 degrees to 500 degrees F.,

the mixture bring kept stirred. In a

short time solidification takes place,

after which the compound is pressed

into bjocks for use. The chem-icals employed for admixture with the

petroleum are stated to cost only

about the same as the petroleum, andthe process of conversion does

quire any skilled labor.

The whole process, from the first

mixing to solidification, occupies only

about half an hour, and the converting

apparatus is simple and Inexpem

The solidified petroleum burns Iret.ly

and with but a small percent

foreign patent relating to this it

losed. Neither was the cost

of production stated, but from whatwas shown this cannot be excessive.

It was, however, stated that the heat-

ing power of the new fuel was muchin excess of that of steam coal, than

which it could be sold much cheaper

Floor for Horse Stalls.—It is

extremely difficult to make a better

floor for horse stalls than the clay

floor solidly tramped to make it hard.

Such a floor will be elastic without

being soft, and is the best possible one

for maintaining a healthy condition of

the hoof. Littered with straw, as all

floors should be, the liquid manure

will all be absorbed, and tho straw

covering will prevent the shoe calks

from disturbing the clay. A horse

standing upon such a floor will have a

hoof that is soft and yet tough,

capable of enduring much more wear

than a dry and brittle hoof, such as

horses usually have that stand upon

wooden floors.—Indiana Farmer.

Te the familiar explanation of the

formation of iceburgs must be addedanother. Mr. Israel C. Russell, in re-

counting his expedition to MountElias, says that the foot of a glacier

extends out under tho muddy water,

sometimes for a thousand feet or more,

in front of tho visible part of tho ice-

cliffs. When this extension of the ice

foot has reached the point where the

buoyancy of the ice at the bottom ex-

ceeds its strength, huge pieces break

oft" and rise to the surface. The sud-

den appearance of these masses of ice

is always startling. "At first it seems,'

says Mr. Russell, "as if some huge sea

monster had risen from tho deep andwas lashing the water into foam."

Soon it can be seen that a blue island

has appeared above the surface, carry-

ing up hundreds of tons of water,

which flows down its sides in cataracts

of foam. The fragments which rise

from the bottom in this manner are

usually larger than those broken from

the faces of the ice cliff, sometimes

measuring two hundred or three hun-

dred feet in diameter. Their sire andthe suddenness with which they

large proportion of homicides is the

readiness of parties to shoot or cut,

and this is altogether traceable to the

possession of a deadty weapon. Thefear that the other party in a quarrel

may be also armed leads both sides to

begin deadly work as quick as possi-

ble. It is important to get the drop

on the other man, and in endeavoring

to do this both sides begin the use of

pistols or kniveB. In convictions for

of Mr. Spaulding, to their agent in

this country, as to cheapness of con-

struction, saving in milage, and re-

sources of the country to be developed,

shall prove to be correct. There is

but one thing which they propose

ask from the counties through whichthe road will pass, and that is a guar-

antee of the right of way. To Mont-

gomery county and tho State of Ken-tucky as a through line with connec-

tions North and South, and a devel-

oper of our resources, this is the best

line ever proposed, and we think our

people, through whose lands it would

pass, would be only too glad to give

the right of way. This line, with the

Kentucky Midland connecting with

the K. U., at Clay City, and what wenow have, would make Mt. Sterling a

Gaitskill, who drives the stage be-

tween Mt. Sterling and this place, was

in his cart preparing to leave, whenSkillman approached and arrested

urn on a warrant charging him with

cutting with intent to kill. Gaitskill

struck at him several times aud at-

tempted to draw a knife, telling him

him that he would cut his (Skillman's)

— throat before he would be ar-

rested.'

Skillman took hold of him and

during the scuffle stabbed him in the

left side. Tho knifo entered between

the ninth and tenth rib, and the

wound, though painful, is not neces-

sarily dangerous. Tho knife usedis a a spring-back three-inch blade

There is a wide-spread fear that the

dreaded Typhus fever which hits appearauco in some of the ]

cities, will find its way all over the

country. This dread scourge is prob-ably (me of the most virulent anddeadly known to medical science. It

is is generally admitted to bo tho

plague that caused such fearful havoethroughout Europe during the middleages, and is due to bad food and im-proper sanitation. It would seemthat there is smalt prospect, that withwith the advanced knowledge of thepresent day, it cannot be kept in

check. There are at present in NewYork City about 100 cases, most ofthem Russian Jews just landed, whobrought it with them. It is reported

that many of tho native population

who have como in contact with it.have

contracted the disease' as it is highlycontagious.
