they will be so pleased that in q few
years every street in Paducah in the

manently improved, and Paducah's

the city is behind the times, and is
run by unprogressive people who
have no civic pride and are utterly
lacking in q knowledge Of the neces-
stiles Of the times, and what it takes
to build up and enhance the import
ance of city. There is a great futnre
for Paducah If little enterprise and

who hold in their hands the welfare

PEARLS OF GREAT PRICE.
Diamonds Lose Old Time Favor In
London Society.

Diamonds Lose Old Time Favor In
London Society.
The coronation year has not result.
ed in the great rush for diamonds
that was expected, and the quieter
looking but more expensive pearl has
gained an easy lead" The manager
OF Tinanys told a London Express
representative recently that the sales
OF diamonds during the past year had
not been very much above the normal.
but the amount OF alteration and re-
pair work, resstting OF stones. etc,
had been extraordinarily great, and
the expert workmsn had been kept
very busy. The chief work had been
in connection with the repair of fam
lily jewels. while large numbers Of
Americans staying in England for the
coronation had their diamonds reset
and polished by English workmen.
The American grande dame was al
ways a large buyer OF diamonds. and
was particularly anxious to have them
set In the English style. The reason
for the small increase In the sale Of
diamonds was the great popularity Of
the pearl. which had become exceed.
ingly fashionable Of late months. In
spite Of Its expensiveness.
The usual price Of q pearl neck
lace ranged from 100000 to $4,000,
and a really hne necklace was not TO
be had for less than e75.000. Where
3 society woman could make a good
show" In diamonds for $4,000. she
could do very little for the same
amount in pearls.
Simplicity was the keynote Of the
fashion In diamonds and clusters OF
largo stones. made into brooches and
pendants and other articles OF adorn,
ment, were far more popular and ere
ated a better effect than a large col
lection Of small diamonds set thick
ly together. The average price for
a diamond brooch with fine large
stones was $4,000. and this article
found rapid sale.

VOTE FOR PADUoAH's
PROGRESS.


II Psducsh is to go forward the peo-
pie must go to the polls and cast their
votes in favcr of better streets and fl
tered water. Tuesday the voters are
to have the first opportunity to express
their choice in regard to whether the
city shall issue 500, 900 IN bonds with
which to build streets befitting the size
and importance of Psducah and wheth-
or to accept the water company Is
proposition and secure clear, health
full water, or to continue ss we are,
without either. 1t is not believed that
any publio-spirited man will be SO sell

cost him II he owns property along the
thoroughfsres that may be selected
for the improved streets. II he is not
short-sighted he will readily perceive
that any assessment that may be made
by virtue of his owning property along

get a much larger price, ss is clearly
demonstrated by the manner in which

VOTE OUT THE GANG.

The Sun does not believe that the
people Of Paducsh are in favor of con-
tinuing in power the set Of men who
have been in office for the past five
years, especially the past year. There
has never before been such a oontinu-
GUS series of municipal blunders in
such a short time. Everything, with
few exceptions, that has been done,
from the unlawful increasing Of sal
aries after officials went into office to
the tax levy Of sl.s6, has been illegal.
II is likely that never In the history Of
Paducsh or any other city its sizel was
so much money wasted in such short
time. There is absolutely nothing to
show for 1t. With five months Of
the fiscal year already provided for
by taxation, the municipal boards,
to raise s16o, 900 for the remaining
seven months, made q s1.S5 tax
rate. This money is more than it
has cost the city in former years for
an entire twelve months, and what
has been collected Of it has practi-
cally been wasted, and the city is
still borrowing money with which
to pay its monthly salaries and bills.
In due time, it seems probable, the ad-
minist ration will be called on to show
it's authority for many things it has
done, and when the people are made
more fully aware Of its costly mis-
takes they will be more anxious than
ever to see it pass into history.
The city is ruled by ring, and the
ring seems to have no regard for either
the rights or the wishes Of the public.
A vote for the Democratic ticket
means a vote to continue this state Of
affairs. There is no promise or pros
pect of 9 change or reformation, and
to put any of the men back in Office
will be a virtual Endorsement of their
illegal acts of the past, and encour-
age them to become colder and more
defiant in their public duties IN the
future. II is time TO begin to weed
them out. All of them cannot be
ousted at this election, but enough
good men can be put in to prevent
further trans gressions. The Republi-
can ticket is the one to elect If the
people want a fair and progressive
government. It will effectually put
an end to the tricks of the gang,
and next year the remainder Of the
clique will be retired to private life,
Better men could not have been found
than those on the Republican ticket,
and the voters are urged to go to the
polls and do their duty Tuesday and
administer q well earned rebuke to the
o. .s5 crowd.

The Wary Crocodile.

Besides the fish which form part
Of a crocodile's regular diet, a certain
number Of land animals are caught at
the drinking places along the river
bank. Il have heard OF case where
a mugger in an Indian river. after
missing his first dash, waited for the
victim again." says a writer. THE
proceedings were watched by an Eng.
lishman far away on the other bank
who was employing his leisure by
searching the edge of the river with
a glass. A native woman came down
TO fill her water-pot. and while thus
employed was attacked by the croco-
die. She jumped back Just In time,
but in the effort Of flight dropped her
only garment. She took cover under
a bush up the bank. and after what
appeared a safe interval cautiously
returned for her clothing; as she
reached II she vas seized and car
ried of by the brute. which had ap-

ly two years with distinction-attain-
ing the rank of sergeant-major-and

Nearly two years after entering the
army Poe was advanced to the non
commissioned stan, having, while at
Fortress Monroe. shown ability that
attracted attention. On April IA, 1929,
he offered a substitute. and was hon
orably discharged. having at that
time the rank OF sergeant-major.
On July I. 1880. he was admitted
to the Military academy at West
Point, and on March 5, Of the follow
ing year was dismissed by order OF
court-martial, he having grown tired
Of military life and purposely violat-
