Joys myrtle-wreath or sorrows gyves,
Where'er human spirit strives
After a life more true and fair.
There is the true mans birthplace grand,
His a worldwide fatherlandi
where'er a single slave doth pine.
where'er one man may help another
Thank God for such a birthright,

That spot OF earth Is thine and minei
There Is the true mans birthplace grand.

Street Car Company to Prepare
for Winter.
Directors Decide to Increase Their
Rolling Stock ct
Once.
PLANS FOR THE THEATER

Yesterday afternoon the regular
semi. annual meeting Of the directors
of the Paducah eity railway was held
and many msetts discussed.
The most important thing done at
the meeting was the decision in the
matter of purchasing more rolling
stock for use this winter. The COM
pany has plenty Of summer cars but
few cars for winter use, and at the
meeting it was decided to buy more
cars which will be shipped here in the
fall and placed in service. Mr.. George
O. Wallace returned Tuesday, from
st. Louis to look over the stock of
cars and stated this morning that he
did not know just how many would
be bought but that the company would
bs we'll fixed for rolling stock this
winter.
The matter pertaining to the Casino
theater at Wallace park was not taken
mp on account of other business which
consumed the greater part Of the
meeting but this matter will be taken
mp and discussed later. A director of
the street car company stated this
morning that while he could not state
authoritstively, he felt positive that
the theater would not remain dark the
remainder of the season but would be
opened again within . comparatively
short time.

Pitcher Best Arrived From
Cincinnati Today.
Has . Pitcher and Outfielder, q Left
Fielder and First Baseman
with Him.
THE RS ARE EXPECTED

Cooney Best, the pitcher, returned
this morning at O'Clock from Cincin-
natl with three ball players who will
go in against Cairo Saturday.
They are Thomas NJ. Ray, q pitcher
and outfielder: John Morrisey, left
fielder and william Benke, first base
man. All are well built men and ap-
pear to be ball players. Best went to
Cincinnati especially to secure new
players and saw them work and jud &c
their abilities himself. He was in.
structed to secure five new men but
could not get the kind he wanted and
therefore brought the best three he
could secure.
Best, it is reliably tipped, will be-
come manager upon the teams return
home. 1t is not exactly known what
will be done in the way of changes
but there will be changes made.
The two new men secured from Go
lumbia, Tenn, are due here today. 1t
is now tipped that Kelley, the catch
er, who went TO Mississippi, will re-
turn here TO work with the local team.
He wants to come and stated before
he left that If Paducah ever wanted
him to wire and he would willingly
come. Kelly is the only catcher who
has successfully held Best and is .
general favorite with the fans here.
II has been decided. from reports,
not to release Freeman, who is at
jackson, and wants to join that team.
He has bsen granted permission, how.
ever. to pitch for jackson.
Morrisey, the new fielder, is a reg
ular short stop and was recently short
stop for the Cincinnati National
league team. Morrisey was sold to the
Columbus team and did not like the
place and left. Best was fortunate in
securing him as he is one Of the best
short stops in the country.

Yesterdays st. Louis Post Dispatch
says of the tragedy:
Samuel Allison Parsons. who shot
and killed his wife at their home, $40
WinstAnley avenue. East St Louis,
Tuesday morning, is held to the grand
jury by the verdict Of the coroner's
jury, rendered Tuesday night.
Beatrice, the pretty 4 year old
daughter Of the dead woman and the
imprisoned man, is the object of much
loving pity among the neighbors. She
is being cared for by Mrs. Gertrude
Golding the friend Of Mrs. Parsons,
who was in the house at the hime Of
the killing.
1.-THE last thing that Mrs. Parsons
said to me" said Mrs. Golding, was,
Please take care Of my baby. Give
her to my mother when she comes, il
she will have her, and il not send her
some way, to my sister at Noun,
Pleasant, Tex.
"Bestrice did not awaken ct the
time of the shooting, but continued tc
sleep soundly until she was aroused to
let her mother kiss her goodbye. She
slumbered peacefully in her little era
die all through the tragedy"
Beatrice has golden hair and a most
pleasing face that is bright with child
ish innocence. She misses her mother
greatly. but does not comprehend the
blow that has practically made her an
orphan.
Mrs. Parsons fear that her mother
might not care to take the little one
was based upon the fact that her mar
rage to Parsons had been violently
opposed by her mother. She elopec
from Texarkana, Ark, to Little Rock,
and was married to the man who
killed her Tuesday-mistaking her 70,
q burglar at the window, he asserts.
Mrs. Parsons mother was married {
second time, to . man named Lassiter
and il now living in Paduoah. KY.
In regard to the disposition Of thu
child, mentioned in the above aocoun
from the st. Louis paper, Mrs. Lassi
ter will bring her to Paducah an
adopt her. The girl will come witt
her grandmother and m theirs remain
tomorrow morning.

was q bright lad and at the age of 90,
in 1882. was sent to Yale. While

come an abolitionist though his par
ents were slave holders. Graduating
and returning to Kentucky he entered
the legal profession in 1884. He at
tanned prominence and was elected TO
the legislature in 1885 and returned
several sessions thereafter. To his
efforts much Of the rapid improvements
in the jury and law schools has al
ways been due. He also became some
what Of political leader and he sup
ported Henry Clay for the presidency,
was the opposer OF the annexation Of
Texas, and in ls4o began the publics-
tion Of an anti-slavery paper which
got him into trouble. He served and
was taken prisoner In the Mexican
war, but was released through strong
efforts Of the government. He aided
In the election OF Taylor as president
