Faris Hall, son Of A. and j. dall,
was born March Doth, 1891, died Orto-
Der End, 1902. Faris was a sweet
little boy of eight summer. He was
intelligent and had a kind disposition
that constitutes an attractive child.
Those who knew him loved him; es-
pecIally his playmites. Always kind
and obedient at school, with manners
so pleasing for one OF his age. His
little schoolmates will rever hear his be-
loved voice here again, but he is with
Gods Angelic host, whiting to welcome
them there. Weep not dear parents for
his short life was pure, and you have
one more link to bind you to Heaven for
he is now with mis- little sister waiting
and calling you to that happy home.
We extend>much sympathy to the grief
stricken family, and direct them to God
who doeth all things well.
Tis' a blessing to live, but a greater
to die.
And the best Of the World il it's path
to the sky.

can never be what it should until
there is some system Of disposing
of garbage. OF course people with
a proper regard for their own health
and that of the communityswill have
1t hauled off regularly, but there are
q great many who are content to
throw il in to the back yard or alley
to decay and contaminate the entire
neighborhood. In other cities, many
Of them only fourth as large as Pa
duoah, the city has this garbage col
lected and hauled away regularly at
small expense to the people. 1t should
be done here. The oity authorities
seem to have no regard for the health
or welfare Of the people. They refuse
to require sewerage connections. to
have garbage hauled away, to have
the streets sprinkled or even to have
the cutters flushed. 1t is said the al
legs were never so filthy as now.

MAN WHO WAS ONCE CLERK Is
NOW JUDGE.

There is no telling what will happen
in twenty years, for it was twenty
years ago today when ]. W. Hooker
was county judge Of Graves county,
and was out of the city attending to
some business in the country, and
while he was away James 7. Webb,
his Office clerk, was left in charge to
look after the business Of the Office IN
til his return.
Veto, presto, change.
Today James t. Webb 10 the county
Judge and is gone to the country and
during his absence his office clerk,
who lie J. ". Hooker, 10 left in the
Office to attend to the business Of the
office until his return.
1t is wonderful what Office changes
can take place in twenty years and
this is one Of the wonders. Hooker
was q good county Judge and Webb a
good clerk, now Webb is good county
Judge and Hooker is . good clerk.

Attorneys Gross and Houser have
prepared q damage suit against the
Paducah Street Railway company and
the city, to be filed today by A.
Conner, an old man who was hurt
near the union depot two or three
months ago.
The style of the suit is A Conner
against the Paducah Light, Railway
and Power company, and the city of
Paducah. The petitioner alleges that
he was driving along near the last
fill towards the depot, on the right
side Of the street, when he was forced
to cross the track to avoid colliding
with car. There was not enough
room on the right side to pass on
account OF post that was being put
up. The wheels o. his wagon struck
the track and he was thrown out, be-
ing badly hurt. He sues for 1000
damages.

A NEW TRUST LAW.

The Republican party has always
been the party of the people. The
manner in which it is dealing with
the trust question mas completely rout-
ed the Democrats and il is announced
on excellent authority that at the next
session Of congress an antitrust bill
will be introduced by the Republicans,
and undoubtedly passed. 1t, will cover
every feature of the question and the
Democrats in congress, while their
votes will be unnecessary. will be in
vited to vote for the measure on patri-
otto grounds, II for no other reason.
II they are sincere in their opposition
to the trusts, they will have to snip
port the bill; II not, they will be
forced to virtually acknowledge 1t.
The president and attorney general
realize this gfeat dificnlty and danger
of hasty legislation in restraint OF pri.
vste enterprise, and have both decided
to see bow far existing laws will 60

of q new law. Hence the prosecutions

where the Sherman law fell short Of
its authors designs as to put its
strength to the test. These two suits,
which are all that it is the present
plan of the administration to under
take till new Law has been enacted,
have given the attorney general great
many suggestions He has embodied
them In certain additions to the text
of the Littlefield bill or in marginal
indications of changes which would
be advisable, so that the measure is
