XX. Old Citizen OLAT CITY, K VM THURSDAY - JANUARY. 7. 1915. NO. i TOWN BOARD MEETS The Town Board met Saturday night, it being'.'thc regular meeting night, and transacted the usual monthly business. The tax-levy for the year 1915 was also fixed as apportioned as follows: School tax 25 cents; general fund. 25 cents; the poll tax of $1.50 to be turned into the general fund. Last year the levy was divided by giving the school fund 30 cents, but the balance was found to be insufficient to run the town. The matter of collecting the deliquent taxes was also brought up for dis cussion, and steps will be taken shortly to ensure the collection of this. TO RUN FOR John McPrirson, one of the oldest and best, known men in Powell county, died early Friday morning, after a short illness. Mr. McPherson was 70 years 'of age, having been born December 15, 1844,. and had lived practically all his life in Powell county. He was a veteran of the Civil War. Three children survive him, one son, B. of Winchester, and two daughters, Mrs. Lina Fisher, of Clark county, and Mrs. Rosa Smith, of Wayncstown, Indiana. One brother, Sam McPherson, of Illinois,, and one sister, Mrs. C, Curtis, of Virden, also survive. A short funeral service was held at the home Sunday by Rev. D. H. Matherly, and the remains were taken to West Bend for interment in the family lot. Mr. McPherson was a splendid citizen who was always alive to the interests of the town and coun ty- - and Clay City loses a good man by his death. He was a consistent member of the Church of God. M. McPherson, REPRESENTATIVE This week we carry the authorized announcement of Mr. A. M. Lowe, of Rosslyn, that ho will be a candidate for Representative from this district on the Democratic ticket at the August primary. Mr. Lowe is postmaster at Rosslyn and also a prosperous merchant and good business man. He is a strong Democrat, who has always been a worker for thti party, and his chances for the nomination look verv trood. It is Mr. Lowe's intention to make a house to house canvass of the district and become acquainted with all the voters. In this he will be assisted by his father, Mr. Jackson Lowe, who is one of the pioneers of this section. Mr. Lowe, Sr., was born and raised in White Oak, in, Estill county, and in the olden days made many a trip on the Kentucky river when the big furnaces at Estill Furnace were in full blast. He is well known to all the older settlers in that district, and will be able to materially assist his son in his campaign.

' f v i Now it cunia to piss that when wo wero approaching the Fljins U head-- , quarters house, Boruftthlug happened which would have shocked tho nerves of any girl fresh from the city, except ' joura truly, Dr. Delia Whltisorc. Down t V.'e wcra riillns t'on a ridse. below, at a clump of trees, I beheld a mad lot of riders arriving at a certain l cottonwoed wuh a man whom they i wore going to liaug. Chip looked, too, And. did I fancy 1 saw a smile curving f Lis lipts or was it Just simply tho nat-- : ural smile that teemed always to lurk i about hU mount) uoulh? Anyway, It was the sur plclon that he f smiled, that made me take philosophic- ally all that my blue eye3 now beheld. ( Instead of cry.ng out in horror und dlfir-uand inuring a scene as 1 learned afterward I m as expected to do ' I merely kept a closed mouth. ' I saw those v '.'.X men on the cayuses at the cottonwood pat a rope around ' the neck of the mau on the horse and prepare to hang him. It certainly was a critical moment for the man wUh the ropo around his throat. But upon ' closer Inspection, 1 saw the trick. This whole scene had been planned especially for my bentJt, that was quite obvious. For 1 now perceived so good were my eyesthat tho man to bo hanged was not a man at all, but only a dummy, an eCcy. What spoiled their fartfo for" my benefit more than anything else, was that now the horee carrying the effigy bolted. Yes,' that horse vas running away. The runaway sped up the Incline and was coming along tho road directly toward us. There was no room for this flying cayuse to pass us vlth the floundering effigy strapped on his back and flinging itself wildly from sid6 to side of the road. Tho runaway horee would rvn right onto us 'right into our buckboard and would undoubtedly scare our own horses so that we would have a double runaway on our own hands and perhaps be killed before ever my brother could welcome me after our four years" separation. What did Chip do? Chip was right there with presence of mind. Ho wheeled our horses and plunged pen mell down the steepest embankment In the whole world. And he started rolling down that awful steep embank merit not a moment too soon, oither. For Just oa wo got eafely off the narrow road nbovo, the runaway horse with the effigy phot past. An accident had been averted only by a hair's 'breadth. On down that fearsome precipice we careened In the buckboard, the horses scarcely abl- - to hold the vohlcle our wheels rolling over boulders and shooting us way up In the nlr llrst on tnt right, then ou the left, precipitating mo bodily ugaln uud again iuto Uih stalwart arms of one Ch.p( aul Hinging him bodily again and again athwart my lap, so that at times It seemed as if tho nutural.law of gravitation Itself was being helped, by this wild fierce ride down the precipice, to literally "throw" us together, r.

Even Id that delightful moment 'when everybody should give thanks to their Creator for the sparing of life and limb, I could not forbeur to teuse the gritty Chip. So I never for a second , let him see thut I understood that he had uuved my very life uud that henco-fprtas they say In novels, I owed my life to this hero. No, what I said to him, was this: "You wore Just trying to frighten we, weren't you riding dowu that terrible place like thut!" ' He look u long while to reply, but at last he said: "Yes, 1 was Just simply lnltiuttug you Into the ways of the Woolly West. Wo often have to take rides like that Just to give the homes exercise.

With a up in front of tho ranch house where my brother Jack stood to receive mo. With a mighty ehout of welcome, he drew me into his arms and told me the ranch was mine and to do with it ns I willed. Chip helped to take In my basgago. And then the other boys came up, sheepishly, trying to make It appear that they had not seen me before at all, but were beholding mo for the first time. They were so however, that the humor of It got the best of me and I laughed but I laughed In my sleeve, as It were, end they never knew that I had sensed the trick they had ea. unsuccessfully tried to play to frighten me by malt-inme think that, In the first hour ol my Introduction to the West country, tho hanging committee had secured a victim. Jack Introduced all thfse boys Shorty and Slim and Weary und ell tha rest of them. And then c ine Patsy, his hands all whito with Hour, and a dirty apron and a face th.it made hlra look more fit for coal hcav n ; than for preparing food fit for liunm:. consumption. "Patsy," I said, "you shall- - be my first victim. I'm going to reform you." Patsy mado an effort to wlp: his hands in order to take my proffered hand, but I seized his hand, Hour and ell. That at once made a friend ol Patsy for Dr. Delia Whltmore. And then, I'm sure it was in order to get tho boys "hep" to me that Chip now dlsplcy.ei.wtth. prldflthe cgiote "and told how I had shot It. "Jiminy Christmas!" cried Weary. "What do you think of a city skirt pitting one over like that tho first crack out of the box!" And the other boys looked me ovei with admiration and friendliness. The "old maid" was now "hiep"- so far us the boys were concerned. The next day, I turned my attention, ns promised, to Patsy. I went to him in his kitchen and inspected it. Of all the pigsties that kitchen was the worst. There were probably hundreds of empty cans empty tins that had contained tomatoes and corn and all the canned goods that flesh Is heir to on a remote ranch in Montana. And the pots and pans looked as though they never had been washed eluce first bought; and the floor bad not been scrubbed in 40 years. "You must clean up this kitchen, Patsy," I said. ".Until you clean It up, I'll not eat a thing. So unless you want a starving old maid on your hands, get busy, get busy. Besides, after you've cleaned up, I'll help you I'll show you bow to make certain dlshce that will tickle the palate of my brother and the boys and make them your friend till death do you part." The result of this palaver was that Patsy set to vork In dead earnest to clean that kitchen. Of all the cleaning tasks you ever saw performed with alacrity and thoroughness, that was the moBt successful. Out through the door Patsy swept the tin cans hundreds of them and out to the four winds Patsy sent the debris of the kitchen flying. And then down upon his knees he went to work at scrubbing the floor with soft soap. And my Brother Jack happened In, and wont sprawling and cursing on the soft soap. And Patsy said it served the boss right, as the boss bad no business Interrupting a cook when he was cleaning his kitchen for the first time In four whole years for the sake of the doggonedoet finest old maid that ever camped on a ranch In the northwest of these United States. A few days later there appeared, suddenly, at the ranch a large man with an aggressive suit of clothes and a forward manlier. He acted ub If he owned the whole country. He went to the barn and began giving orders to change everything and sundry forthwith, as nothing was right on that ranch uud everything was all wrong. Chip appeared at the burn at the moment when the stranger was storm-lng nt the boys, ordering them In no soft speech to clean up the place and build extra stalls and do a lot of things uo oue had ever thought of do- 1 ifi $3.00 .Courier-Journ- al $'75 SIX MONTHS 1 Ufi EE Si m DAILY BY MAIL (Not Sunday) is a Went Sprawling ar.c -- rsing on the Soft Soap. 1- During" January and February Only e 1 1charged, understand?
