Time Yesterday on Court.

MAN HELD FOR MALlclOusLY CUTTING

There was general fight that some-
what resembled a miniature edition of
the civil war at Ninth and Court

middle Of the street, and the men in
volved were all from Mayfeld. The
names that appeared on the police
court docket this morning were:

E Bullock, @. NJ. Lawrence ana Ed
billiard, and Annie Frazier and Ruby
Smith.
There were three Mayfeld attorneys
here to represent the defendants, and
the evidence was partially heard. 1t
showed that two or three of them were
cut, but not seriously, and there was
a general knock down. The case was
left open and all were held in the sum
of $500 except Butler, whose bond was
fixed at 500.
The disorderly house case against
Mary Stamford, colored, was dis
missed. :

Manager A. L. Joynes, of the East
Tennessee Telephone company, leaves

connect the exchange there with the
East Tennessee line, which reaches
that place by cable scross the Ohio
river at Brookport.

suit of the connection of the two ex.
changes, it will give Paducah direct

Brookport, and the subscribers at
Metropolis of the latter telephone
con pany, and with all the subscribers
in the surrounding country. In all,
it will add 70 the direct connection OF
the East Tennessee here fifteen coun
ties in Illinois, and will be of vast
benefit, especially to the local whole
sale trade.
This connection is made at consid
cradle trouble and expense, and give
the Metropolis telephone company thu
benefit of the cable across tho river.
The connection Will be complete by
Wednesday, and after that time peopl,

DRY SUNDAY IN NEW YORK
MOST REMARKABLE EXPERT
ENCE OF GOTHAM SINCE
CHIEF BYRNEs MADE
AGREAT RECORD.

New York, April THE police and
liquor dealers gave Greater New York
dry" Sunday today. Though there
were degrees of dryness, so to speak,
in different sections of the metropolis.
the day has had no equal in the sus-
pension of liquor traffic since five years
ago, when superintendent Thomas II.
Byrnes tightly closed the saloons one
memorable SUNDAY. His task, how
ever, is said 20 have been easier than
that which confronted the police yes
terday, for he had no Raines law
hotels, with their sandwiches, to con-
tend with. These hotels must be
taken into consideration, therefore,
when the word dry" is used in con-
nection with the events of the day for
the man who had cash to buy a sand
witch and drink had small difficulty
in shaking his thirst. Few liquor deal
ers had the temerity to keep open and
serve drinks alone, and of those WI o
did the majority were invited to VISIT
the nearest police station, there to
remain until bondsmen appeared.

occupied by the negro was in hol-

the fiend.. Dynamite was resortod to
without avail, and, fearing that dark
ness would come on and the negro
escape, the governor was wired to
order the Wheeler Rifles of Florence
to the scene of carnage.
Under Captain Simpson a score of
militia reached Tuscumbia about 3
O'Clock. Taking a position behind
buildings, trees, aud fences, they
poured volley after volley into the
windows and all apertures of the
building where the negro was harri-
caded, literally riddling the house,
but the negro kept up his deadly fir

was decided TO burn the two adjoin-

with kerosene and turpentine were
