THAT Premium HID,

The Paducah papers deny that the hid

cab fair, and that this premium hid
sold at $50 and was rejected. This is the
whole story. Ifthere is any mistake in
the matter II is certainly not chargeable
to us.
The Herald says the sale OF the prize
hid at SOS was bona tide one. We do
not question this; but when he asks us to
believe that the gentleman to whom 1t
was sold, paid SOS per 100 pounds there.

Mad Dog KiIied.Omciai Negligence,


a rabid dog was killed by Comptroller
Lyon, at noon to-day, near his residence
on Cedar street. 1t was clear and I'M
deniable case of hydrophobia. Where the
dog came from, how many other dogs and
cattle, haye been bitten by 1t, Of course
no one knows; but that, from this time
forth, every precautionary measure neces-
sary TO protect the public from danger,
should be taken, all will agree.
Does the City Marshal intend to per-
form his duty? An ordinance is In force
requiring that all dogs within the city
shall be muzzled during dog-days, yet
the marshal has not even attempted to
enforce its provisions. We need not add
that the public is justly exasperated over
this neglect Of duty. They are entitled
10 the protection of the law, and II Mr..
Bambrick feels himself unequal to a
faithful discharge Of his duty, he should
at once resign that his place may be iill-
ed by more active man. This is plain
talk; but the emergency demands II.

BURGLARIOUS PROCEED.
ING.
An Up,sch.d SAFE Blows Open ana
RineA.

Sometime between the hours Of and
4 o'clock, Sunday morning, two or more
daring villains entered the business
house Of Messrs. Parker & Phillis, on the
Ohio Levee, corner OF Tenth street, ex-
pecting no doubt, that they would be
well paid for their risk and labor. The
fact had got abroad that Captain Parker
was paymaster TO the hands OF the steam
er Underwater, and IL was conjectured
therefrom that a considerable sum Of
money was deposited In his safe.
The first thing the burglars did after
effecting an entrance into the house, was
to darken the glass doors In rear, that
their light might not attract attention
from the outside. This they did by
hanging large flag which they found at
hand in the store room across
the doors. This done, they be.
slowed their attention upon the safe.
BY an expert use OF the implements
with which they were provided, they cut
hole into the face OF the safe door, and
into the orifce thus opened they emp
tied considerable quantity Of powder.
An explosion, which none Of the neigh
bors needed, soon afterwards followed,
and the contents OF the safe were placed
within reach. How the rascals swore at
their ill.luck, and cursed Parker d Phil
Is when they found out hat there was
no money In the safe, beyond a small
amount Of silver change, we may never
know; but II Is quite..reasonable to suppose
that that prudence in the firm that sug-
gested q use Of the bank sa fe instead OF
their own a. a keeper OF their currency,
was quite heartily damned. But the
burglars did not leave entirely empty
bandedafter all. The change, amount
ing to about six dollars, and a portion of
Capt Parker's deceased wife's jewlery, fell
ito their hands aud were carried of.
As every article OF this jewelry admits
Of ready Identification, 1t IL TO be hoped
that Il will! lead 10 the detection OF the
burglars.
The funny phase o: the affair, and one
that does not speak highly OF the skill
OF the burglars Is that the safe was not
locked! They did all their chiseling
drilling and blasting upon O safe which a
smart burglar would have opened by
turning the knob. This fact, and the
further fact that the safe was undoubted-
ly robbed under the impression that 1t
contained large amount OF money be-
longing to the Underwater, lead us TO
believe that at least one Il the burglars
Is resident OF Cairo, and all OF them

ing OF a valise in rather secluded por-
ton of the wharfboat, that had been bro
ken open. The clothing 1t contained,
with several letters addressed to James
II. Heager, were scattered about the
deck.
From this circumstance the suspicion
has been aroused that the owner Of the
valise had been knocked on the head and
tumbled into the river, by some Of the
scoundrels who at times rendezvous in
our city. The more reasonable conjec-
ture is that the valise was stolen from
some steam boat and carried to the wharf
boat and there rifled Of Its valuable con-
tents.
