y, Friday and Saturday,
Sept 30th, Oot 1st and Oct 2nd,
The members of Emmanuel Episcopal
church held un important and interest
ing meeting Sunday morning after the
regular services at the church.
The vestry submitted to the church
their plans for raising the necessary
money with which to complete the
church building, and those plans were
approved.
*A mortgage will be given for the
amohut of money necessary to be bor
rowed, and the vestry has plans for pay
ing off the mortgage in monthly install
ments.
The original estimate of the building
committee was that the cost of erecting
the new building would amount to $18,-
000. It is estimated that the church can
be finished, except as to its equipment,
and leave $3,000 to do that work when
ever it is necessary.
Messrs. W. S. Basinger, H. C. White
and Bylvauus Morris addressed the con
gregation and explaimsl the plans of the
vestry thoroughly.
The contributions from members to
the building fund have been large and
generous, and the work of the different
members in securing money for the
boildiug fund lias lieen untiring,
It is also a fact that the members of
the Episcopal church desire to be
known, that the contributions from
those not members of the Episcopal
church and members of other churches
lutve been more than generous, and that
without them it would have been im
possible to have carried on the work as
well as it has lieen done.
The architect says that the work at
tha Episcopal church building is of the
liighest character, and that he hopes to
hs.vothe building in shape for occupan
cy within the next sixty days.

swellings and rheumatism I know of no
medicine or prescription equal to it. I

Life at the
A PROGRESSIVE CAMPAIGN- AT DAVISON AND LOWE’S
Ordinary Herrington has had all the
plans for the new county stockade
drawn.
They call x for a building somewhat
larger than the jail. A large chiminey
will be in the middle, and the convicts
will be chained to a long chain so that
they can walk around and lie down
comfortably near the fire.
The structure will be of wood and
will not be of a very expensive nature.
It will contain a large room for the
male convicts, another room for the
females, and a room for the guard.
A day guard and a night guard will
be employed to wittch over the convicts.
The day guard will have charge of
them during the hours they work on
the roads. The night guard will
simply koep them wifely held at night.
The location of the stockade has not
yet been determined upon as so many
people object to its being located on
their lands or near them.
It has been found that it is not profit
able to work less than twenty convict*
at a time, and in order to keep a work
ing force of that size constantly on
hand, the county of Clarke will no
doubt have to hire the convicts of some
adjoining county. /

At the synagogue yesterday morning
the regular New Year’s services were
held. They were conducted by Ribbi

large and devout congregation.
The singing by the choir was lovely in

Rabbi Rubenstein made an address to

and good advice.
Yesterday was rigidly observed as a

The prisoners at the jail are obliged to
amuse themselves in some way, and
few days since quite a novelty iu the
way of amusement was introduced!
John Vaughn, the young white man
confined at the jail on the charge of
killing Jim Davison, started this new
feature, and it has since developed into
huge proportions.
Many large rats infest the jail and
uughn determined to catch a few. So
he bent a couple of pins into the shape
of hooks and tied them to cords. Then
he baited the hooks with meat and soon
had two big rats banging to the line.
Sheriff Wier furnished him with
half dozen hooks, and a regular trot line
was set out. The next morning six big

Hawesville, Ky., Sept. 27.—In the
broad opening glare of a Sunday sun, in
the midst of a protracted revival, not a
mask to be seep, and in the presence of
800 infuriated people, Raymond Bush-
rod, a negro, at 5 o’clock yesterday
evening swung from a limb in the court
house yard. v
Buahrod was from Rockport, Ind.
Several months ago he was taken in and
treated kindly by Willis Clark, a farmer
in the upper part of the county, only to
betray Clark and steal his watch.
For this he was released two weeks
ago from the county jail, after having
served a sentence of 166 days. He was
in town yesterday and drinking. In
the afternoon he set out afoot, going
west on the Texas railroad.
Three miles below town, near Petri
station, he encountered Maggie Roberts,
daughter of Ben Roberts, a prominent
farmer. He ran her down and assaulted
her. In addition to this he beat and
bruised her with an iron coupling and
left her to die. «■
