A FEW WHITES.

Long is said to be the fastest fielder
in the league.
Gerard and Brown will be the bat
teries for today.
Many are anxious to see the new
faces ON Paducah's nine.
Brown, the new catcher, of Louis
Vile, is said to be hot stuff.
Since we took two from the "Top
Notchers" it begins to look better.
The Hend erson papers compliment
Willie LeCompte especially for his
work at short.
Tomorrow there will probably be
somew here near 5000 people out to see
us clean up Cairo.
Gage held down first base yesterday.
Edmunds got his arm hurt and did not
feel like remaining in the game.
Long has played an excellent game
in the field and will be retained by the
local management. The outfield will
be the strongest that ever happened
and tomorrow the management ex-
poets the largest crowd of the season
out.
Cairo is here for three games. The
people like to see Paducah and Cairo
fight it out, and the management of
the Paducah club should now warn
the members Of the club against" beef
ing" Whoever is umpire should um-
pire and the players may do the play
ing. The public wants beeang cut
out.
Second Baseman Shuster and Pitch
or Lewis have been released. Shus'
ter couldn't get in the game because
of an old wound and the management
could not afford to keep him. Sher'
man will 20 on second to replace shus-

Oldest Family In the World.


"The oldest family in the world
lives in Bel county. Kentucky" said
3. +. Creecb, a prominent merchant
Of Four Mile. who is here buying
goods for the spring trade. Il do not
mean that they have the longest pedi.
gree. but that they have been here n
long time, and have a family history
that is perhaps the most unique in
the world. Lewis Green is 90 years
old, his wife. Virginia Green. is go
gears old. They were married sew
enty-three years ago. and went 10 live
on a farm at the mouth OF Bingham's
creek, in a bend Of Toe Cumberland
river. They are still living In tho
same house to which they went as
bridegroom and bride three quarters
I Of century ago. They have ten chill
dren, the youngest Is now 43, and
there has never been a death in the
family. All of which makes me be-
lieve that Bell county is the healthiest
place on tho face OF the globe. Tho
Greens live about ten miles from Pine
ville."-Louisville Cour.erJ0arnal.

A Sootshman's Calamity.

From Scotland itself comes the fol
lowing story concerning an enthusiast
tic curler who invariably wore at the
games a cap with comfortable warm
ear flaps. Arriving one day without
this headgear. he was greeted by q
friend: "Eh. Wullie. mon! whar's ye're
auld lug.warmer?' To which the
other replied lugubriously: ] hae ma

The indications are that the legisla-
tive boards of Paducah will have dur
ing the next few weeks several oppor-
tunities TO show their hand in regard
to public improvements. In addition
to the proposed 500, 900 bond issue
for extensive street improvements thei e
will be proposition to order vote
at the same time on bond issue for
building new city hospital. Besides
they will be compelled shortly to take
some action on the street paving for
which bids have already been twice
asked and rejected. Paducah is now
considered one of the best cities in the
country. If the proper public spirit
is displayed by those in power. there
is no reason Paducah should not rank
with the very best and most modern
cities anywhere. This can only be
done by permanently improving the
streets, and building modern public
institutions. Ii is likely the people
will indorse them. At any rate there
can be no harm in allowing the peo-
pie to vote on whether they want, .
general bond issue for public improve
ments, or to vote separately on bonds
for various improvements.

One of the most convincing evil
dences we have of the growing desper-
alton of the Democrats in Kentucky
over the approaching election is the
disreputable campaign tactics already
inaugurated by some of the Democrat
ic papers. Although the campaign
has not opened. they are springing
some Of the most ridiculous campaign
lies imaginable. The labor people Of
the state are for Colonel Belknap and
the Journal of Labor, published BY
the most prominent labor leaders in
the state, at Louisville 10 openly for
Colonel Belknap, yet some of the
Democratic organs are telling their
readers oil over the state some Of
whom know NO better than to be-
lisve it, that lsboring men are
against the Republican csndi-
Gate. 1t is hoped that before any L.
boring man seriously considers believ-
ing such . story. he will investigate
and lind out for himself.

A Tennessee circuit judge q day OF
two ago took it upon himself to Sc
verely censure q grand jury for not
finding a true bill in q case the judge,
for some reason. desired and expect
ed an indictment. Why a judge should
be so arrogant and narrow is hard to
understand, and why twelve men
who, so far as is known. did their
duty rs they saw it, shuold be COM
PEELED to take a public insult from an
eRotistical ass who probably did it be-
cause he had the power, is one Of
those things that remain to be ex-
planned. The power has been dele
gated to the grand jury in every state
that has such a thing, to hear the evil
dence in all such cases and return in-
dictments, and if the trainers of the
law thought a judge could do it bet
ter than the jury or preferred having
him do it, doubtless they would have
so provided. AS long as the grand
jury didn't see fit to find the indict-
ment however the Tennessee Judge
showed very little dignity intelligence
or consideration towards the men on
it in presuming that he knew moro
about the case than they did, and pub
licly rebuking them.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

BY local applications as they
cannot reach the diseased portion
of the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an infamed condition
of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube is
infamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, deafness
is the result, and unless the infam-
nation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal con di-
ton, hearing will be destroyed for
ever. Nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infamed condition of
the mucous services.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of deafness (caus-
ed by catarrh) that cannot be cured
by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for
circulars, free.
