POLICE COURT.
Very Few Cases on the Docket This
:. Morning.
Case Against Steamboat Mate Was
Continued Until Next Monday.

The weather seems to have had n
pereeptible effect on Judge Sanders
court, as the docket was unusually
small today for Monday morning.
The case against Ell Martin, mate on
the Buttorfr. for striking a coloved
teamster. was partially heard and most
Of the evidence corroborates the mate,
who did not strike the negro until the
latter drew a whip. Judge Sanders
left the case open until next Mondsy
and warrants for false swearing may
be issued.
Osborne Drake, who beat up wo-
man about IS months ago and thought
the officers had forgotten about 1t
when he came back recently, was fined
$50 and costs.
George Harmon, who works for
Master Commissioner Clip Husbands,
was fined s25 and costs and given 10
days in Jail for carrying pistol con-
cealed.
John Haffey was fined 81 for plain
drunk.

The Rain Seems to Have Been
General.
River Over the Danger Line Here and
Still Rising, But No Big Flood
Is Probable.
TOBACCO BEING MOVED TODAY

The outlook for flood at Paducsh
has changed very much since Satur.
day. Some Of the older rivermen now
predict that there will be very high
stage Of water, even if there is no
overflow such as we have had once or
twice in the history of the city.
The danger line was passed yester-
day. aud the gauge is now nearly n
foot over 1t, with the river still ris.
ing.
The Mississippi is rising, which
backs up the water at Cairo aud pre-
vents it from running out of the Ohio
rapidly. and reports from above indi.
cate that the Ohio, Tennessee and
Cumberland are rising at present.
How long this will continue cannot
be predicted, but it is believed that
the cold weather will stop tho rise and
allow some Of the water to run out be-
fore the snow aud Zoe melt and let an
OF her large volume into the Ohio.
The rainfall here has been about
three inches since Saturday, and 1t is
understood the rain was general. The
high stage of water is causing great
Inconvenience and suffering. Much
corn and stock have to be moved from
the lowlands by the farmers along the
river banks. and in the city the effect
10 also keenly felt. 1t is now very
difficult matter to load the boats nc
the wharf on account of the lack Of
space.
Many of the smaller landings along
the river bank are so badly submerged
that the packets cannot land, which
occasions great loss to steamboat own
ers in both passenger and freight bust
ness.
This morning the Western District
Warehouse 90 has a large force Of
men at work moving 800 hogsheads
OF tobacco from their warehouses at
First and Jefferson streets, aud it is
thought that it will all be safely out
before the river reaches it. It was
not moved before because it was no.
believed that it would be necessary.
Last night, however, it became evi.
dent that there is considerably more
water to come, and men were at once
pat to work taking out the tobacco.
The rise here since Saturday has
been a foot and a half. which is n very
heavy rise for this stage of water.
Owing to the fact that the river is out
IF its banks tho water spreads over a
vast sreR, and IL requires great deal
Of it 70 make a foot rise.
Conservative rivermen do not seem

The success of the first year Of the
Mckinley memorial fund amply at
tests the universal esteem in which
our late president was held. Over
$500, 1000 was donated to the fund dur
ing the first year of the organization,
and an effort is to be made to collect
800, 200 more. There should be en-
countered no difficulty in collecting
many times that amount. The new
plan is to secure the 100000 in 81

THE SUMS CIRCULATION.

1t is a rare thing that The Sun does
any Dragging about its "doings" but
it is feeling so good over the way its
circulation is growing, and has grown
since fall, that it needs must say
something about it. '-
The circulation OF The Sun at pres
ent is over 2,200 copies a day.
FIFTEEN hundred and sixty Of these
go ont in the city by The Suns regu-
lar subscribers, 10 of them go to Brook
port and Metropolis, 1870 go out on
the rural routes and the balance 60 out
by mail to regular subscribers and ad-
vertisers and exchanges.
This is a circulation The Sun feels
proud of. However it won't stop at
these figures. The circulation is in
crossing with each day, and the hust-
ling work that is doing it will be con-
tinued. -.u --.- 90 o. '.a
Advertisers can rest assured when
they place an ad in The Sun thas they
can tell just how many people will see
it. They can also rest assured that
they can not get the same amount of
circulation for their publicity that
The Sun gives at the price The Sun
makes.
It is 0 recognized fact among the
leading merchants of the country that
advertising is the motive power to
business In this age--that it is abso-
lutely essential. The Wanamsker's,
the Marshall Fields, the leaders in
every city in mercantile lines, attri-
butte their success TO the money spent
in advertising. The Rducah mer-
chants also appreciate the fact that ad-
vertising is the one thing that will
play the most important part in the
business of the future.
The point to this recital is; Adver-
tiss, and use The Sun when you adver-
tise. No one in this day should have
to be told to advertise, for advertising
is the motive power to present day
business, and is becoming more force
FILLMORE essential each day. How
ever one should know what mediums
to use. In Paducah The Sun IS I'M
mistakably one.

plNt6ROvt TO BE REVIVED.
A Company Organized to do Some Deep De-
veIopment Work on the Old Wilson Mine.

A corporation to be known as the
Pinegroye Gold Mining Co. has been
organized to unwater and do some deep
development work on the celebrated
Wilson mine, at Pinegrove. The COM
pany is incorporated under the laws OF
this State, with H. c, Cutting as Presi-
dent and A. l.. Hudgens Secretary and
Treasurer, and is the result of negotia-
lions bugun last Fall and consummated
last week for the taking over OF the
property by Messrs Cutting and Hudg-
ems This week Wednesday ground was
broken for tunnel which is to be run a
distance of about 5000 to drain the
ground, tap the ledge and allow develop
ment work to be carried on several hun
dred feet: below the present workings.
To accomplish this as rapidly as posi-
BILE an air compressor and lngersoll
drills are to be installed at once and
three 8-hour shifts of miners put on.
The company has about $50 tons of
concentrates at the old Wilson mill
which will average between $40 and $50
per ton. These will at once be shipped
to a smelter and the returns made avail
able. The company has also decided to
place $4,000 shares of it's treasury stock
on the market at fifty cents per share to
obtain money to run the tunnel. The
stock of the corporation will be listed on
the stock exchange in San Francisco,
but no more stock will be sold than to
pay the actual expenses of the proposed
development work. The stock is con-
sidered by the owners to be quite valua-
bic and they are not peddling it about,
but those who think enough of the prop
erty to invest few dollars can make
arrangements by addressing j. w. or j.
|. Wilson, at Nordyke, New. ]. w.
Luke, well known here, has been made
General Manager and Superintendent of
the company, and all work will be car
ried on under his instruction. Some
little road work will be done to begin
with, and foreman, blacksmith and six
miners will then be steadily employed
until the company proves the ground to
its thorough satisfaction. These po-
sitions have all been filed, so it will be
useless for miners to come here looking
for work just at present. AS has been
before stated in these columns, the Will
son mine has every indication of devel-
oping into splendid property. 1t has
already produced over five million dol
lars in gold, and that from a depth not
to exceed $50 feet. 1t is not at all prob
able that the great ledge peters out at
the water level, as that is not the histo-
ry of Nevada gold mines. The people
of this valley wish the new company
success in its undertaking, and there are
but few who are acquainted with the
property who doubt that it will prove as
big bonanza below the water level as
above it.
