The penitentiary question is pressing to the front and a consen sus of opinion of the legislature shows a disposition to purchase a prison farm or farms for the mainten ance and support of the convicts. WEDNESDAY EVENING JANUARY. 10. 1894. A KLUSTER OF BULL’S EYE WS. I dropped in on John Black' this forenoon and found him very busy issuing tUx fi fas. Mr. Black tells me that many people are be hind this year and while he hates to do so, he is compelled to pro ceed with the fi fas. No county ever had a clever or more efficient tax collector than big hearted John Black. * ♦ • Judge John P. Davis, is a born Ordinary. He has been in the of fice but a few weeks, and y«t he is perfectly at home, and makes every one else, who has businss# with the office, feel the same way. The Judge tells me that he has is sued but one marriage license this week —Thats bad—but the men cant help it. *♦* The Evans people, dout begin to like the Atkinson complexion of Floyd County politics—At least their leader, Max Meyerhardt dout. 1 find that for several days, that gentleman has been quietly secur ing a list, and looking to the form ation of an “Evans Club” in ths near iuture. • * * Mr. Meyerhardt’s friends say he is a shrewd politician and some how or other is in the front rank of the crowd that wins. He cer tainly has whooped up the Atkin son Boom in Rome and is cl* ver enough in his reasoning to know his only hope in holding the boys in line is “Club them” in. *** I have heard a number of pro as inent democrats express them selves on thin ~clubbing business” and they are of the opinion that it is to precipitate matters. Why not hold off and let men consider the claims of candidates, also al low them time, as democrats ,to study the records of those who of fer, and as democrats make up their minds as to who will b» best fitted for the place and who ‘ would most strengthen the party. ♦ • 4 It looks t® me that the policy of the Evans people has been to put their condidate in tho field and close nominations against all oth er entries. Failing in this they begin organizing Evans clubs even at this early date, hoping thereby to corral the boom strength which the leaders see is already falling away. V I am one of the hundreds of Atkinson msn, in this district,who think thie kind of politics should be outlawed. I remember when in 1892,the Third party was claiming the earth, aid tho outleok was gloomy, that a lot of those Evan# boomers were keeping that good mans company some where ir the rear trenches —seme of them were no* svon in unifvrm. Now they ra’- ly around his fresh stardard aud exclaim “We killed the bair,” I was not keeping company with that gang at that time, but was running with the beys who was “getting next to tho calamity howl ors.” I am with my gang yet, and I believe the most of us want one of our sort of democrats to lead us again. See? And remembering that 80,000 majority I don’t believe there is a better, more pure or more able man than practical,elo quent, energetic, Lionhearted W. Y. Atkinson, NOW FOR “PATTI” CONCFRT.

WHIITE CAP REGULATORS. Are Deaf to Ike Prayer# es Westen and the Pleadings of Innocent Chil dreu. A peer man Shot Down at the rhresho’d of hi# Cablu. Harrodsburg, Ky., Jan.9—The Regulators or White Caps who have for the last two months been terrori zing not only the West end of this country bnt also the adjoining coun ties of Washington and Boyle, were out in force last night, numbering not less than fifty men. After these midnight marauders, masked and armed to the teeth, had visited quite a number of country residences and called out the men, whipping very seriously some and reading the riot act to others, warn ing them to mend their wavs, leave the country or take the consequen ces, they went on their way to the villiage of Leesburg six miles from this place- They forced open the cabi n door of Joshua Mitchell and forcibly drag ging him from his bed, carried him about fifty yards from his home and tried him belore Judge Lynch, So soon as Mitchell took in the situation and was convinced they meant to do him bodily harm, h i broke through their line and made haste for his cab in where he had a loaded shot gun. His wife had gotten up and light ed a lamp, and just as Mitchell was nearing the door, outlined by the light, was perforated with not less than twentyfive buckshot, and his bleeding corpse fell prostrate on the door sill. Immediately after murdering Mitchell they attacked tho residence of Black Bottoms and forced open his door. They made his wife strike a light but could not find their man. His wife averred that ha was ab sent from homo, but this they didn’t believe for the children kept begging that they would not kill their father. After making a thorough search aud were about to leave, one of them per ceived some soot falling Jdown the chimney into the smouldering fire, and looking up the chimney saw Bottoms, who had been frightened by the shootisg when Mitchell was killed, and had elimbed up for safety Dragging him down by tho heels they carried him off aud gave him fifty lashes on his bare back, lacera ting him at every stroke, and causing the blood to flow freely, while his pit eous cries for morcy rent the mid night sir Bottoms had boon dragged from his cabin by a rope slipped over his neck, but the pitiful cries of his little children and tho earnest prayers of his grief stricken wife aroused a feel ing of sympathy in the hearts of his perscutors and they relented a little and concluded instead of hanging, to give him a severe boating, and this they did with a vengeance- THE ARMENIAN.

The fire originated in the third floor, whan* an immense stock of chemicals and standard goods were stored, and before it was discovered had gone betweenjthe coaling and the roof. The department was called out, but the fire had gained such headway that it was almost im possible te save the building. Wa ter was turned on in sfuces, but »# fast as the flames were subdued at oue point they spouted out at an other place. The firemen worked hard, but nothing could be dore, and at 1 o’clock parts of the roof tumbled in. The stack on the three floors is valued by Mr. Jacobs at SIOO,OOO, and is only partly in sured, away below the value of the stock.—Constitution. SHOT HIS DAUGHTER. Buffalo, N.

Eight o’clock came and when th fc curtain went up on Good Bye, Sweet heart, it was to disclose a scene of splendor and beauty; a splendid fes tival, r®p!ete with gaiety, wit and wine. A veritable gala night was the first production of Good Bye, Sweet' heart. Lillian Lewis was the La Tisba, and a thoroughly successful one. There is no question about the fact that Miss Lillian Lewis has in Good Bye Sweet, heart, a play which will make her fame and fortune. The dance of the A azurka to use a circus faiker’s phrase is worth the price ,«>f admission. In this Miss Lewis, as well as the cora ptßy, were charming. The La Tisba f Miss Lewis is a pure and noble and self-aaoriticing woman—of the sort which play-goers have been wanting to see.
