Some may wonder what work there is that will keep a man omployod tor seven months. ot, if they will only stop and oonsidor the condition of the oeinotory thoy will soon oc conviuccd thore is a great doal to bo done and that it will keep a man busy all the season to do this. Thore arc something near 200 lots still unsold and we fed that this price of $!100 for this must be met. We still ask help of those who have no lots thero to buy during the noxt fifteen days. After this purchase is made then tho money realized from salo of lots will be turned into tho cemetery funds, and iicd to keep the place in order.' Thero is no graft in this und no oue need fear that his money will bo misappropriated. Do not stand back ami criticize, but come .md help .us out in this work.

II. A. Haynes, tho treasurer for Marion Graded School district, has paid off the last 2,000. bond of tho old issue which was sold to build tho mam building. This is indeed a fine showing for the board and leaves the district free of the debt except tho new bonds of $5,000. which were sold two years ago to build tho auditorium and new chapel. When the high character of tho school maintained hcrcjis considered, coupled with the fact that the building is now heated by a new steam radiator system and has new opera chairs in the auditorium, is really remarkable that the sinking fund has been sufficient to retire the old bonds so quickly. Great, credit is due the school board and each citizen of the district should "hold up their hand" in all matters touching this the greatest of Marion's enterprises. The blessings of a good school will decend to generations unborn as well as to the boys and girls of today. The editor acknowledges tho receipt of the following card: "Mr. and Mrs. Geo. W. L.

It is currently reported that Judge J. Fleming Gordon has decided to accept the position as president of a big trust company just organized at Paducah and that he will tender his resignation as circuit judge of this judicial district to take effect July 1st, says the Hustler. While the Hustler has held no, direct communication with Judge Gordon, the information seems to be thoroughly reliable. The matter has been under by him for some time and while he was at Paducah Friday it is said tho final arrangements were made. It will be with regret that the people of Madisonvillc will see Judce Gordon leave the city. Hc was born and reared here." As presiding judge of our circuit court he has acted with great courage and shown rare judicial discrimination. Governor Beckhamwill have the appointment of a successor until the November election, when an election will be held for the unexpired term. Henderson Gleaner. Whole Train Load of Canned Tomatoes.
