A KICK has come from Bonita
because their school money willnot
reach S4O0 this year. The Bonita
district is in the same condition as
the balance of the districts both
large and small. None Of them
will receive as much money as they
should, and while the law plain ly
says that districts of the school
population of Bonita, shall receive
S400, the County School Superin-
tendent is powerless to supply it
unless he has the funds. When he
submits his figures to the Board
of Supervisors as to the amount of
money required to maintain the
schools according to the meaning
of the law, he has done his whole
duty. If the funds are supplied he
will apportion them. If not suffic.
lent funds to carry out the law are
supplied, he is powerless and the
districts will fall short.

always something in each play that
appeals to each individual auditor.
His new piece, Remember the

ever produced In the first place its
very name suggests something that
fires the blood of every true patriot
and makes him long to sec how Mr..

Since then she had been gradually

EXCURSION.
The Kentucky" Battleship Fund
Committee Will Give Two
River Excursions
Next Week.
A Patriots Time and a Pleasant
Trip viii Given for a Very
Small Sum-Plenty of
Good Music,

The committee appointed to solicit
subscriptions for the fund for the sill
yer service to be given the battleship
Kentucky, has hit upon a novel plan
to raise Paducah's share Of the state
fund.
On next Friday, Oct. Z, the com.
mitlee will give two excursions on the
Dick Fowler, one for the school
children from ? p. IN. to 8 p. m.
The other for adults from 1880 p. m.
to IL sop. m. The trip will be down
the Ohio to Little Chain, and the
Dick Fowler will make the round
trip without stopping.
The fare for the children will be
10 cents for the round trip in the
afternoon, and for adults will be 20
cents for the trip at night.
Good music will be provided for
both trips while genuine cake walk
aud dancing will be two features Of
the trip at night.
These excursions are for the bene-
fit Of the battleship fund. 1t is
pretty generally known that the peo-
pie Of Kentucky wish TO present a
solid silver service to the battleshIp
Kentucky when she goes into COM
mission. Kentucky has been greatly
honored by the navy department in
naming the wonderful warship after
this state. She will be the most
formidable battleship in the whole
world.
THIS silver service will cost &c.
900 aud Paducah must do her share.
The committee that has the matter in
charge for this city is Mr.. Ben
Weille, Major Ashcroft and Mr..
Chas. Jennings. They propose to
raise our share by the two excur-
sions. The Dick Fowler will be
furnished at merely a nominal price.
Everything will he donated as fan as
possible, so that the money gotten
from the sale Of tickets will go al
most all To the fund. Mr.. Weille
has made sill arrangements today for
the excursion.
Nothing now remains but to sell
the tickets, and every person in
Paducah should buy one.
Let us show our patriotism and
each person buy a ticket for one Of
the excursions.
