THE LOCAL
NEWSPAPER
Several Reasons Why the Local
Papers Should Be Better
Supported.
It is the local press that serves you
in every emergency. There's where
you go when in trouble. It is there you
go for all manner of help. If you want
to boom any manufacturing enterprise,
any railroad project, for the develop
ment of your town, of your lodge, to
increase your influence, or if your lodge
desires to add to its membership or to
erect a new hall or in any way advance
its interests, the local press is immedi
ately appealed to for help. So it is
with our churches. If it is a panic or a
festival, a new carpet or an organ, the
local press is found to be useful in fur
thering every good object. If a raid is
to be made on sin by the ambassadors !
of Christ the conimns of the local paper
are used freely and gratuitously in ad- j
vertising the revival or protracted meet-j
ing. The candidates and politicians find j
also the importance of the local press. '
Clearly there are many reasons why
the local press should be cultivated.
Yet spite of these facts the people most
interested in the local paper are some
times the last to give it their support
and are frequently known to take sev
eral mstropolitan papers and shut out
their local paper altogether. If there
is anything in the argument about the
advantages of home trade, surely it
makes a strong appeal on behalf of the
local press, because the money for the
labor is always expended where the
paper is printed, and if paid out with
one hand for subscription, advertising
or job printing, it comes into the other
hand and thus remains with you. Or
if by any means you freeze out your
local paper and leave yourself at the
mercy of the foreign, you would find
out more fully than words or arguments
could explain why the local paper should
be cultivated.

A NIGHT IN
Misses Emma and Elizabeth
Visit the Great Cave.
Fslier
J. P. Faltor and wife yesterday re-
i ceived a letter from their daughters,
! Misses Emma and Elizabeth, who are
i attending school at Bowling Green, Kv
i . , . , A, , . ?
in whieh they write of a trip they made
through the Mammoth Cave, a fev.- .
days since. Of it they say: "We started
at six o'clock in the evening, and as
there were two routes to travel, one
as
the
: novelty oi it, we would take the rocky
route. After travelincr about a quarter
of a mile we came to the hill, which is
a very rough road, being at an angle of
almost 45 degrees, and one had to cling
to the 'rocks in order to make the as
cent, while the road was very narrow,
and by looking over the bluffs one could
see the river far below, as the cave was
, more of a severe task to have climbed
in ladies ordinary wearing apparel.
j After having passed over this hill, or
in reality a small mountain, we came to
J the river at the foot of the hill and
were taken over in a boat. From here
I we continued farther into the heart of
: the mountain in which the cave is
located. We finally, after miles ot
travel, came to the house which has
been built there, and had lunch ; after
which we took a boat ride on the under
ground lake, which is also well lighted
by electricity. This lake is a wonderful
place, as it extends for miles, and is in
some places as much as a quarter of a
mile wide, while in other places it is
not over a hundred feet. On our re
turn we took the shorter route, and as
it had gotten late we were desirous oi"
returning a quicker way. Was 12 o'clock
(midnight) when we were on the lake,
and when we arrived at the entrancs to
the cave on our return it was almost
morning again. We thus had spent
nearly the entire night in the under-
ground cavern. We had no idea that it
was so strenuous a trip to pass over
the rocky road, the smooth way is the
one usually taken by most travelers.!
The experience, though, is worth tiie
trip, for the once."

conclusive evidence that Hollowe'en
has come and gone, it came in like a
lion, and we would not be surprised but
that it would require a good bit of lying
to get out of many of the scrapes which
some are liable to get into.
On the streets we noticed only a few
freaks were committed one was the
tearing down of the fence at the
Catholic parsonage, the changing of
the sign of Ptak & Bajeck to Pepper
berg's place, and the ringing of the
Second ward school bell. At the News
office a good deal of malicious mischief
was done, which if found out, would be
liable to place someone benind the bars.
The large press on which they print
their paper was dismantled, and will
take a machinist to restore it as before.
The cases were changed, a piece broken
out of one of the imposing stones,
while shooting sticks mallets and quoins
were carried away. Some one has
facetiously asked why the shooting
sticks should be taken, since the hunt

quoins were to be used to relieve the '
stringency of the financial situation. I

of a collision, the passenger had to be

to make a run of a mile in order to get
the train stopped, which it is claimed he
made at a record-breaking pace.
