Promoter Hoss Arrives to Confer
With the Carnival Committee
Representatives Of the Bostock and
0askill Companies Expected
7e Next Week.
THINGS BEGIN TO HUM

In few days active work will be-
gin towards Paducah's spring carnival
which IL this year TO be given by the
Paducah Carnival Association.
Today Mr.. Bert Hoss, q promoter,
representing the Layton Mighty Gar
nival company, arrived to confer with
the executive committee of the associ-
alton. .....
In few days Mr.. II. b. Potter. of
the Bostock -Fersri company, will ar
rive, Mr.. Conley, who had charge Of
the preparations year before last, will
come TO represent himself and his com
pany, and Mr.. Gsskill will arrive TO
represent the Gaskill attractions.
The local association can do nothing
definite until the incorporation of the
company is complete, which will not
be until the papers are sent to Frank
fort and returned.
nc toNnnhttotr Nhh oshANh WIN tht
representatives of the various attrac-
tions, however, and complete much OF
the preliminary work before hand, and
this is what will be done.
All the big carnival companies seem
TO want TO furnish the attractions,
which insures Paducah the best. This
year there wall be something entirely
new. and the company that offers the
latest and best will probably secure
the contract.
The question Of whore to hold the
carnival is one that is destined to
cause more or less trouble. The site
this year cannot be the same as the
past two years, as the public library
at Ninth and Broadway now occupies
most OF the ground formerly used.
No suggestions have been received
thus far, however and the question of
a location can be settled any time be-
fore the time for festivities to begin.

Florida Has Never Known the Like
Before.
Judge Stewart Sent to Jail for Con.
tempt, Says He will Make
1t Warm.
UNIVERSITY

Tampa, Fla, Jan. 22-The stetson
University scandal and controversy is
the greatest sensation ever heard here,
and the action taken by John B. Stet.
son, its founder. in changing his will,
causing it to lose $500, 900 has added
fuel to the flames.
Judge Stewart, his attorney, who Is
in Jail here for refusing to testify
from whom he secured the letters
that are alleged TO incriminate lady
teacher at Stetson and an officer there,
is the hero of the hour. He denounc-
es the action of the parties behind the
Weightnovel case, saying that It was
done to bring him here SO that the
letters could be secured and kept from
the public. He says that the letters
will be made public at the prope,
time, and the bombshell he will then
explode will shake the state from cen
ter to circumference.
There is long story behind this,
Last year a handsome girl. named
Irene Randall. died suddenly. Her
friends had an investigation made and
criminal malpractice was discovered
A Russian doctor, W. N. Weightnovel,
was arrested, and has been in jail since
Among his effects were found, so it
was stated, a number Of discriminating
letters from various parts of the state,
and among other letters showing that
a lady teacher at Stetson had been in
trouble. The board OF trustees and
Governor Jennings made an investiga.
ton, and pronounced the charges false.
In some manner, Judge Stewart Sc
cured the letters touching upon Stet.
son University, and showed them ia
Mr.. Stetson. This sngered him, and
he gave mis- attorney carte blanche for
g full investigation.
Judge Stewart cam 9 here to testify,
but refused to be sworn, and was com
mitted to Jail for twenty days for con.
tempt of court. The sensation came
when Judge Stewart was asked il he
still refused to testify. Judge Stew
art responded with 9 caustio remark,
in which be introduced the name Of
Governor Jennings very freely. He
said that he had been brought to Tam
pa at the instigstion Of Governor Jen-
nings. whose "hirelings and tools
were trying to cover up the corrup-
tion which existed at Stetson Univer-
sity. Such rottonness has never been
equailed since the cruoifixion of
Christ"
II Judge Stewart makes his evidence
public, it is said that il will be the
greatest sensation ever created in the
state. Politicians are figuring upon
its effects on Governor Jennings Unit
ed States senatorial aspirations.

Colored Teamster Perhaps Fatally
Injured lobe Williams
The Two Worked for Mr.. Cliff Bur-
nett and 0uarreled at the Lat.
ter's Feed Stable.
DONALD MADE HIS ESCAPE

lobe Williams, colored, is danger
ously wounded, and Henry Donald,
colored, is fugitive from justice, as
result of shooting ARRAY at Mr..
Cliff Burnett's feed stable on Madison
street between Fourth and Fifth, for
merly used by Mr.. Will Utterbsck, last
evening shortly after 8 O'Clock.
1t seems that williams claimed he
had been imposed on by having to feed
the teams driven by Donald and Hew-
land Reeves, all being tesmsters in the
employ of Mr.. Burnett, because the
two latter arrived at the stable so late
in the morning.
Mr.. Burnett reported to then what
Williams had said, which sngered
them. Last evening after coming in
for the night, they began discussing
what Williams had told Mr.. Burnett,
and Donald, who did not know Will
liams was behind the door, called Will
liams vile name.
Williams and Mr. Burnett, IL seems,
were there to have an understanding
with the other men and when Donald
used the language Williams stepped
out from behind the door and said
they would "settle the question before
the boss.
Vile epithets were exchanged, and
before any serious trouble was suspect
ed by Mr.. Blu rnett Donald declared.
you can't call me a s. Of q b., ''and
fred pistol which he held close to
his side, at williams.
The ball penetrated williams stom-
ach below the naval and cut the in
testines in seven places. He was tax
en- to his home, 7l9 South Eighth
street, and Drs. Robertson, Hoyer and
Hessig attended him.
Donald escaped, He lived back Of
house near Eleventh and Madison
streets. He was Familiarity known as
Shorty" and for several years work
cd for the Leigh Fruit company. He
is the negro with the deep barytone
voice who always sang loudly while
dri ring his wagon. 1t is said of him
that he is such an expert driver he
could get wagon in where no other
driver in Paducah would venture. He
is about thirty years old, and the 9TH
or man is about the same age.
County Attorney Graves, fearing
that williams would die last night.
took his statement of the shooting.
Mr.. Cliff Burnett, who witnessed
the affair. says it all happened in few
seconds, and that he didn't know any
shooting was contemplated until it
had been done. Donald was never
considered dad negro" and bad
never been in serious trouble here.
One Of the attending physicians
said:
The shot entered the abdominal cav
ity and passed through the intestines.
The physicians performed an opera
tion on the wounded man, Ont the alb
domen open and took out all the in
testines. An examination showed that
the intestines had been punctured sew
en- times and all these holes were
sewed up. the intestines replaced and
the stomach sewed up. The operation
was successful as the patient is this
morning resting easy. One OF the ply
siciaus said this morning that nothing
can be told relative to his recovery
until the expiration Of five days as it
will require that long to watch the
patient and see all the changes. They
have hopes for his recovery but say
his chances are slim.
