Many Happy Returns.

An Irishman made his way to a

governor. On being ushered into that
functionary's presence, he begged for

penalty of the law in the course of
the morning.

on being appealed 10, you cannot see

but no teeth were found. The bed was
then searched and the teeth found
under the cover. What the x-ray man
thought was the teeth was a swelling

The Big Warehouse Was Fully Taxed
Last Night,
Many Went Up to Ask for Prayer
and Said They Would
Live Better.
MEETINGS WELL ATTEND ED

The Sam Jones meetings continue
to attract large crowds, and last night
IL is estimated that fully 5000 people
were in the warehouse to hear the dis.
tinRuished evangelist.
The people begin flocking in almost
before dark TO get the choice of seats,
and when the hour for services arrives
there are never any available seats at
the evening service.
At the conclusion Of each service
many go up and ask for prayer, and
as the meeting progresses it is expect
ed that the interest manifested will
be very great indeed. Last night the
sermon was principally an appeal, and
the witticisms were not as plentiful As
ususl.
Long before the hour for services to
begin the people began pouring in,
until every seat in the immense ware
house was filled and standing room
within hearing distance WAS at a
premium. Il is estimated there were
between 5000 and 5000 people in
attendance.
After = song service, during which
Mr.. Siegel sang a beautiful solo, Mr..
Jones announced mis- text, "He that
being often reproved, and hardeneth
his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed,
and that without remedy" Prov.
xxix:l. He stated that these were
the words of God. spoken unto every
unconverted man and woman; and
that it was his purpose to simply re-
hearse facts that had come under
his observation during his ministry.
He called attention to the large
number OF accidents and oatastrophes
that had resulted in the death Of
thousands during the past year, and
gave many incidents that had come
under his personal notice of uncon-
verted men who had refused to heed
the many warnings they had receIv-
cd concerning their souls salvation,
and had suddenly come to an untimely
death. Doubtless, said Mr.. Jones,
81 am tonight preaching the funeral
service Of some poor soul Possibly
before tomorrow night some uncon.
verified man now under the sound Of
my voice will be called to answer be-
fore the judgment bar of God" He
spoke of the uncertain ty Of the man
ner of death, the horror of dying
and our utter helplessness in the
last hour. In conclusion he prayed
for an awakening and conviction Of
sinners in Paducah, and gave an op-
portunity for everyone interested in
his or her souls salvation, and who
wanted the prayers of the Christians,
to come forward and take his hand.
Many responded to the invitation.
Services will continue during the
remainder of this week and until Fri
day Of next. The morning services
are at 1880, afternoon $3.50 and oven
ing services at 1880.
Rev. George Stuart conducted the
morning services at the revival meet
ings this morning, and also this after
noon. The Rev. Mr.. Jones was i'll and
had to see a physi ,ian However he
expects to be all right tonight and
will conduct the evening services.
The attendance was very good.
The greater portion of the audience
was composed of people from the
county who seem to be taking great
interest In the meeting

The silly claim that the tariff had
anything to do with the coal strike is
nothing but a makeshift. The coal
strike was the result of the miners re.
fusing to work. The coal famine was
caused because the miners will Meth
err work nor allow any one else 70
work. II there were NJ tariff on coal,
the operators would not have been able
to pay the miners as much for mining
the coal as they did pay.

It is being claimed by some Of the
friends of defeated candidates for
Democratic nominations in Wednes-
days primary, that in addition to
fragrant irregularities at the polls,
such as openly asking voters to vote
for this or that candidate, the ballots
were illegal and the primary cannot
stand test Of the courts. The law,
according to their claims, requires the
Endorsement on each ballot Of the
clerk of the election, and the ballots
used in this primary, it is sverred.
had no such Endorsement, and no
place for such an Endorsement. 1t is
also alleged that the type used was
not uniform, as required by law. OF
course there may be nothing in such
claims, but on the other hand there
may be, and it is likely that some
thing will be heard from them later.

LOVERS sANp.TRAckEo PATHS
Peculiar Custom Existing In Little VII
lage Of Belgium.


At a little village near Huy. Bel
GUM. In the night Of April 80. there
exists a custom known as the Chem
ms de Stables" or sand paths. On tho
morning Of May the village lanes arc
found covered with narrow tracks OF
white sand running side by side. and
by following them one will be led at
one end 20 the house OF some winEome
country lass. aud at the other to the
home Of her village lover. Sometimes
these sand paths are miles In length
and will take those who follow them to
all the most frequented haunts Of the
lovers. However. TO know these
secrets and intrigues the curious must
rise with the early bird. for the maid
ems spy out from their windows and
when they see a streak OF white sand
leading up TO their doors. hasten down
TO sweep away the tell-tale track.
Sometimes several sand streaks lead
to the door OF the same lass. sign
that she is a decided favorite.

Verify, every sweet has its bitter.
In Fulton the good people bethought
themselves of the happy oxpedient Of
voting out whisky, and after bitter
contest they did it. The revenue net
ted the city by the saloons was 50, 900
a year, quite sum for city the
size of Fulton. Fulton is now 80, 600
In the hole and figuring on how they
are going to make back the other So
900. It is regarded, in fact, as an alb
solute necessity, this $1,000 Of which
local option has deprived them, and
the Leader asks all who have plans for
raising it to send them in without de-
lay. 1t remarks further; 1.-The city
treasury is empty and the city owes
$4,000. All this means that our taxes
will have to be raised or a privilege
tax levied on every business in the
city. One thing is certain, our city
improvements must not be discontin-
ed. Why not raise the water rent
about 25 per cent higher? This would
bring in enough extra money to the
city to pay the interest on the bonds
and leave little for a sinking fund. +"
Thus they are confronted by the par
adoxical fact that the "drys" voted
water in and now they want to raise
the price Of it.

THE WEATHER.
Rain tonight and Saturday,

District politics will soon become
morV irtet resting than they are at pres
emit. 'Afhe Republicans, in Hon. O.
II. Linn of Kuttawa. have a worthy
representative for congress and he
should receive the vote Of every pa
.triotio man who is in favor Ct contin-
ued prosperity, and is opposed to 'Bry-
anisna the ls to platform and a de-
struction of our good times. Mr..
James, the Democratic nominee, is q
RECONSTRUCTED Democrat" and stands
for everything Mr.. Bryan does, and
Mr.. Bryan stands for everything the
Populists do, and they stand for ev-
erything unreasonable and impossible.
A vote for Mr.. James is a vote to
put in power . dangerous set Of
men, crowd who II they get 3
chance will strike blow at the very
root of our government, seek to over
throw the finsncisl system Of the ma
ton and try TO force Populism
down the threats of the people. Mr.
James and his party may be for the
laboring man when he is farmer, but
they are against the laboring man in
the -oity who raises nothing, but
works for money with which to buy
it after the farmer has sold 1t, who
are in favor of legislating in favor of
the farmer as against the lsboring
man Of the city. The Republican
party,in protecting by tariff the man
ufactories ana other industries of
America, has protected the workman
by enabling the factory to compete
with foreign labor and outside cut
throat ocmpetition, and furnish him
with employment and consequently
with livelihood. MI James and his
crowd are trying to take it away from
him, and bsnefit class of people wbo
are already the most independent on
earth. The people OF the First district
should consider these things before
they cast their votes for congress

greed for gain outweighs everything,

are taxed on every hand and for ev-

WOLVES TREE A HUNTER.
Houghton {Mich.y Man Lost in Woods
for Two Days.

Houghton, Mich, Nov. 19.-Lost and
treed by pack OF wolves E. C. Coed
rich, Inspector for the Michigan Tele-
phone company of Houghton, remained
two days and nights with nothing to
eat near King lake, below Nestoria.
He had been hunting with other cop
per country men and had killed a deer
a considerable distance from camp.
He started back in the wrong direction
and soon was hopelessly lost.
At dark Mr.. Goodrich heard wolves
and took to tree. The wolves having
gone at dawn he climbed down nearly
frozen.
Mr.. Goodrich wandered that day and
part of the next until finally he struck
a railroad track and got his bearings
Friends tried to find him but gave
up the search. thinking he had been
shot as deer.
