McMillan has been appointed commercial agent for like Wabash railroad with head­ quarters in He* Moines, He will have supervision of freight traffic having origin in, destined to, and reaching that railroad through Omaha, Neb., or Iowa stations, Ibis is an import­ ant position and one for which the gentleman is well qualified and in which he wilt have unbounded suc­ cess, r—irhm n Fred C. McMillan, recently ap­ pointed commercial agent for the Wabash in thfo city, has entered upon the dutiea of-the place. Before com­ ing to D m Moines Mr, McMillan was prominently identified with the de vslopment of large coal interests along the line of the Wabash between Albia and Moulton. His energy and businem tact attracted the attention of Mr, Kamesy, genera! manager of the Wabash, and ha soon aftorward became a leading factor in the con­ struction work o f the eat-offextension between the towns mentioawd. When this work was completed Mr, Ramsey was so pleased iwith Mr. McMillan's work that he was tendered the po­ sition of commercial agent for the company, with headquarters in this city. COGITATIONS TheMssWhsWant to Sew—AferaWe ef Tetfey- Once upon a time am*u went forth to sow, iu the third watch of the night, and it was so (lurk he wist not where he was. Therefore he weut over sgainstgths forty that was known by all the neighbors to be exceeding stony and wnuW produce nothing, not even ten-fold, but the man with the hoe cast the seed upon stony grouud and it Was so. Now there was a certain either rich man who ‘wentforth to sow and huv ing noticed that his neighbor’s seed grew not,' he thought to. himself I will not do as he hath dohe« so be sowed his seed among the. thorns and it grew much, but when it was ripe, lo and'heboid, he wist not how to gether his crop. Neither did any Of his neighbors. They tried to cut it with a McCor­ mick -binder, but it failed. And the man was exceeding wroth. But he bud wo one to blame but himself. He knew the weeds were there before Jhe sowed the seed. And so if * man seeks evil com' pinions before he knows where he is at. like as not tie wilt be going Hume to his family having a good healthy , ag, even ao he can’t navigate aud lias :o be hauled home on a truck. And yet another man who was wise iii his own mind sowed upon ground .;hat. wpn to- tfcfe.it.mishurd-toraise a disturbance oa it. But he thought tboee whohad farmed before him did «fot form it right, and being wiser thannny of his day or generation, he wentahead. ■ The wheat spraug up quickly and grew for a few weeks. But, aim! bong before ti;ue for the harvest, it nd withered and the hot wind from over against Kansas came and blew it to kingdom come. We once knew a boy whose father, very unfortunately, bad exceeding great wealth. Instead of letting his •on hustle, he sent him away to school >ecauflo he was too smart to be a armer. He had a high forehead and pale complrxiou, so his folks thought'that waa a sign that he was thoughtfnl and brainy. They sent him to school a good deal and when he got through he graduated and they got him a large either bound Bible,even one that cost 14.75 a t the town book store. Tkey started him out in business over wist not wbat it was. *But when they got borne and the fothcr who was a strongman who bad Iran thrown on his own resource wBni real young took him to the thretmug floor in the barn and wore out a new baiter strap on him. Then he recognised him and he made him go nut Into the potato patch ami dig potatoea*for forty days and nights. And thereafter every man believed fully that as ye soar so shall he alto, reap. And it waa so. - The UacmtoehHctarafleyCtmaaay. The entertainment given at the Opera House, Thursday evening was all that could have t«cil expected by the Uedurville people. The acting in the dramatic sketch, by Mr. De Long aud Miss^Miller, riiowed the excellent dramatic ability of these two members aud was a fitting iutro duction to vthe evening’s entertain' ment. The illustrated play, “ Uncle Josh” was then given, Mr, De Long mid Mines Miller doing the reading, imi­ tating perfectly the different char­ acters as the pictures ware thrown on the canvass. The illustrated stags by Miss Evelyn Roth and Mbs Miller, was one of tbs most pleasiug parts of the entertainment, and each time they went heartily encored.^ Undoubtedly the mqtt entertaining cattireof the whole twaing, was the Berpentenia, wfchfc a^jgpad the enter­ tainment. A .grasl-jM « t iHUnaram-pf the entertainment was due to the man­ ager,.A. C, Coit, who had control of the lantern and arranged the color effect*andnovelties. This was a new form of entertain­ ment for the Cedarville people and to say the least was a complete success. BLOODY DUEL Between .two Prawla—t CWissra at Kea- tacky..

The former does not have to solicit the patronage of any one, says an exchange, lie does not have to enter nto competition and strife with his neighbor like the merchant; lie does not have to wrangle and warp the truth for a living like some people, n fact he can be one of the most in­ dependent men on God's green earth if he manages his affairs in a businem manner.

Kentucky has again disgraced it selfthis week by a pistol fight be-* tween some, of its most prominent citizens. As a result tbree men are dead, one fatally wounded add two more slightly wounded. The fight occurred in one of thehotefs in Frank­ fort, between ex-congressman David G. Colson^ of Middlesboro, and Lieu­ tenant Etbelbert Scott, of Somerset., Scott was instantly killed, no less than six bullets eutering Ins body, Colson was shot twice in the arm. The ‘most terrible .part of the tragedy was the fact tliat two hy. slanders were killed aud and a couple crippled. Colsen has been arrested and wilt be tried for murder. He claims seif-defense and the. weight of the evidence will hang pn the foe; foot i s to whether he or Scott fired 'first, Colsen seems to have been prepared for war, as he had two revolvers, one' a 38 calibre and the other a 44 calibre. I t is ssid that no leas than twenty shots were fired by tlie two participants. Kentucky seems to be doing all she can to live up to her name, “The dark and bloody ground.” B y feed ing P O U L T R Y B A N - A C E A y o u r hens Will Jay M O R E EGG S .
