The dispatches say fifteen thous and people gathered at Lexington, Kentucky, Saturday, to hear Col. Breckinridge make his opening cam- paign speech He was met at the depot by over 500 men and special trains brought thousands of people to the city from neighboring towns. It was a great day in Lexington,and the Col. beat Barnums circus as a drawing card. A gentleman living in Washington City, and owning a small piece of ground three miles from the city, offered Coxey the ground for camp- ing purposes, and in addition would give him $500 to clear the under- brush. The offer was refused after consulting Gen. Brownie, on the grounds that the land was too far from the city for camping purposes. We see from Clinton Democrat that Sam J. Calvert, a farmer of Davis township, lost his fine barn by fire last week, and with the barn agricultural implements,spring wag on, and a large quantity of grain, hay, etc. Only three sets of har ness were saved. Luckily his horses were in the pasture. The loss was over $1,600, with an insurance of $800. The people of this section of the state regardless of political affilia tions, will read with regret the pub- lished report that Hon Wm. Wal lace, of Kansas City, who has gained such a famous reputation as a crim- inal lawyer in the case against Frank James and others, is fast losing his mind, as a result of overwork. It is hoped that rest and quiet will bring to him his former health. Commencement exercises of the Butler public schools will be held at the opera house Monday night, May 21st.

During the storm Saturday evening a number of our people were permit- rapid movement of a small cyclone which came to the ground just at the southern limits of the town. The little twister came down from aswath through a rail fence and passed through the field to the resi- the house plump in the center. But the house proved too heavy for the several apple trees a foot through fifty yards. The shingles on the A buggy standing in the yard was siderably damaged. says the twister was not much larg er around than a barrel and traveled very slowly. He was sitting in the house at the time it visited his place and hearing the noise made by the lashing of the tree limbs he walked saw it tear up treesas it proceeded through his premises. The cyclone looked liked a column of boiling steam as large around as a barrel and reaching from the black clouds abave to the ground. It was pretty sight to witness by the town people and one that will not be forgotten soon. The electric storm raging at that time was one of the mcst severe that has visited this city in a long time. The sky wasa blaze of fire and the sharp and deafening peals of thunder fairly shook the earth and made the panes of glass in the win- dows rattle. During the storm Saturdey eve ning lightning struck three times in Mr. Patty's pasture east of town. One of the bolts killed a horse for J. D. Smith aud another struck a set ting hen, killing her and demolished the eggs under her. In the suit from Pleasant Gap tried before Squire Hemstreet of this city, Friday, the prisoner was discharged by the jury.
