APRIL FOOL FRANKS
Telegraph Company Has Some
Fun With Friends.
One Man Waited in Vain for Tele'
phone Call.

Manager J. b. Allen, of the Postal
Telegraph company, was one Of the
few people who had fun All Fools
day. He had a bushol, and used an
unique plan of playing jokes on his
friends to do 1t. He wrote large
number OF kilograms, apparently gen.
uine, and sent them 10 his friends.
The messages typewriter, were
dated Louisville, and read:
Arthur Price Reached Indianspo.
lis Lest Friday Over Our Lines
Fictitious initials were signed and
the messages were sent by messengers.
This various expressions when Mana.
ger Aliens friends received the mes
ssges would have boon valuable con.
tributions to comic weekly il they
could have been transferred TO paper.
They all regarded the message with
the utmost porploxity, and eventually
every one rang up tho Postal Office and
declared that 4 mistake had been
made, and insisted that il be investi.
gated.
After joilying them awhile the
manager would tell them to read the
fret letter OF each word ,snd they then
saw that it spelled april Fool.
II was a good Joke, for not single
person who received one Of the mes.
sages saw through II until II was ex-
planned to them.
A few people were also fooled with
telephone messages yesterday. One
man sat around IN the East Tennessee
exchange Office for an hour or two
waiting for n call from Cincinnati. and
finally ON investigation g was learned
that there had been no call fer him,
and some of his friends had oaly
fooled him by pretending TO be the tel
ephone girl, and telling him he ~ould
receive a call from Cincinnati nt
certain time.

Paducah's rapidly decreasing death
rate is very gratifying, and it is be-
lieved to be due largely to better sani-
tation. Il would doubtless still fur
thor decrease IL the board of health
would meet oftener and take more in
terest IN the city's sanitation, instead
of leaving ii all for the health officer
to look after and to do. There are a
great many things that can be easily
done to improve health and sanitation.
The dust is one of the greatest dissem-
inators OF disease, and while there is
little hope of getting rid of it entire
ly, great deal of relief could be
afforded. at least in the business pant
of the CITY, where it affects the most
people. Every one wants a healthier
city, and everyone should make an
effort to improve sanitation, il il is
only by such a small thing as cleaning
up the yard.

TWICE AT ONCE
A Novel Plan to be Tried by the
Cumberland.
Will Send Telephone Messages ant
kilograms Over the Same Wire.

The Cumberland Telephone and Tel
egraph company has just put in SER
vice a telephone-telegrsph composite
circuit between Louisville and Nash
willie and all points reached through
Nashville. This means that while the
circuit is being used for telephone pur-
poses the same circuit is utilized at
the same time for telegraph purposes
without interference between the two
classes Of service, thus increasing the
working capacity of the circuit. All
the preliminary work necessary to get
the persons calling and called in diff
erens towns in telephone oommunios-
tion with each other, will be now done
by telegraph. For instance, the tele-
graph operator in Paduoah telegraphs
the Nashville or Memphis operator, as
the case may be, that a certain per-
son, giving details ss to address, etc,
is wanted ut the telephone, and in
reply word is received by telegraph
that the person called is ready to talk,
which is Immediately made known TO
the telephone operators in the two
towns in question, who at once make
up telephone circuit without any de-
lay. The chief advantage Of this sys-
TEN is the use of the telegraph circuit
60 relieve the telephone talking circuit
from a great amount Of detail concern
ing telephone appointments, leaving
it free for actual conversation and thus
vastly reducing the delay which has
been to q certain extent necessary
heretofore in establishing telephone
communication between distant points
on lines crowded with telephone
traffic. The method OF handling the
business will be Immediately extended
to other points in the territory, both
in this and other states.
The arrangement Is not perfect as
yet over the system, but will he short
ly. When it is, there will be a tele-
graph operator employed in every one
Of the Cumberland's exchanges, in Ad-
dition TO the telephone operators.
Manager Joynes, OF the local ex-
change, is a telegraph operator him.
self, but will have a man employed
especially to look after the long dis
tance calls.
One use to which the telegraph is
used by the Cumberland at present in
Paducah is to transmit the stock re-
port from local offices. This is done
over the same wire over which tele-
phone messages are sent every day to
Mayiield.

Poor old light plant 1t has been
tho subject Of official investigation.
meditation ana procnstiDation for sew
eral months now, and still nothing has
ever been done. A week or two ago
the people were told that the commit
tee had let the contract for supplies to
a certain company, and it was hoped
the supplies, whatever they were,
would be here soon. But now it de-
velopes the committee has to report
back to the two boards,and if these two
boards see fit, they will ratify the find
ings of the committee, and probably in
the course of time the supplies will
be ordered, snd possibly some time
during the summer the light plant
will be operated on. But 1t is not adj
visable to be too certain about such
things-in Paducah.

Horse Soon to Go.

New York has 1898 fewer stables
and $500 fewer horses than in Decem-
Der, 1896. The decrease is attributed
to the disappearance of horse cars
en- surface lines. Expert observers
think that the automobile, at the
present rate of improvement. will
Danish the horse from business trafiic

CAPT. AUGUSTUS.
HE MAY BE GIVEN BACK HIS
OLD JOB SHORTLY.

1t is possible that Capt. Vim. e.
Augustus will be given back his posi-
ton as assistant fire chief at the meet
ings of the municipal boards next
week. He has petitioned the boards,
claiming that as be was legislated out
of office in a similar manner to Mar
shall Crow, he is entitled to his Office
back, inasmuch as the courts decided
that Marshal Grow was entitled to
hold his.
1t is not known what the attorneys
opinion will be. Acting Attorney
Wheeler stated that he had not inves-
tigated the matter, and didu't know
anything about it, and Solicitor Wor-
ten is out campaigning and has had
no time to, but some Of the members
of the board seem 70 think that Capt.
Augustus, who has spent his life in
the fire service, should not be put out
now if able to discharge the duties.
Others are in favor OF giving him
some Office that will rot require much
work, such as an assistant of some
street department, or in charge OF
something about the city hall. One
councilman said today he was in favor
of giving Capt. Augustus a job If it
has to be especially created for his
benefit.

FLOATING OUR BONDS.

The county officials yesterday re-
iected all the bids on the proposed
new bond issue to refund some out
standing bonds on the grounds that
the price offered. sl01, was too low.
The proposed issue is to beer SO per
cent.
The officials may be right in their
conclusions that they can do better
than this, but it is hardly to be ex-
pected in the present condition of the
money market.
Money today is higher than it has
been for some time. For the past six
months time money has commanded
in New York 8 and 6 per cent, even
such corporations as the Pennsylvania
railroad company having to pay . per
cent for money borrowed on long
time, and an Illinois Central issue of
So, 900. oc0 sis per cent sold in Lon
don, the cheapest money market in
the world, last week at s103.
In this connection the following
New York telegram in yesterdays pa.
pers is interesting. 1t says:
"Time money is quiet and firm,
banks as a rule being unwilling to
place. funds except for short periods.
The rate is nominslly 81 per cent,
but occasional loans have been made
by outside lenders in some cases for six
months, which Just now is rather I'M
usual, at 514 per cent.
London houses bought stocks on q
fairly heavy scale. and the tone Of all
the foreign market was improved. A
better inquiry for our bonds by for
eien investors has also been reported
in the last few days; the inquiry seems
TO be, however, for bonds of mndoubt-
ed character and security. which, by
reason of the recent fall in prices, net
their purchasers not much below 4 =
per cent interest.
This only goes to prove that when
investors can put their money in good,
stable bonds bearing AZ ana per
cent 1t will be a hard matter to float 9
az per cent issue.
If the county officials will wait a
few months in all probability they
may be able to float their SO per cent
issue at satisfactory prices, but they
will find it a hard proposition to do so
under present conditions. 1t will pay
them to wait. however, for Z per
cent on 100000 means saving OF
$500 q year, and as students Of finance
seem to think the coming congress
will give the country currency sys-
tenn that will amply supply the de-
mands on it and make money cheaper
the county. may when this is DONE
sell the b. nds at much better price.

WILL run A TRAIN.
FIRST PASSENGER OVER THE
NEW ROAD MAY 10

Kevil. the town lately founded by
local parties with several parties in
the county, is ON a boom and on MAY
10 a big public sale of lots will be
held.
Tel @. officials have notified the
incorporators of the town that the Cal
70 branch will be completed that far
by May 10 and that a train can be run
out carrying those who desire to buy
the lots. Already one building for
general horseshoeing and wagon re-
pairing has been put up. This town
is located a short distance from Wood
willie and it is thought will reach Wood
willie within q short time after the
branch road has been built.

A FURTHER EFFORT
This May be Made by the Re-
funding Committee.
Committeeman Think Bonds We're to
Have Been Divided.

while the bids for the 800, 200 .
per cent county bonds have been re-
iectod by the refunding committee OF
fiscal court, which opened them yes
terdny afternoon, the project OF re-
funding the bonds is by no means
abandoned. Il may be that fiscal court
Will give the committee additional in
structions at its meeting Tuesday, or
il may be the committee will be auth
orized to again advertise for bids, and
hold out for 80 per cent. All the
bids submitted yesterday were exactly
the same. l0i, or 1000 for the thirty
year investment, which induces some
Of the committee to think that per
haps the bidders intended to bid the
same, buy tho bonds pnd each take u
fourth. This is only a supposition,
however, and the county will probably
take further steps to refund the bonds
at3le per cent interest.

1t appears that German officers crit
icism Of the United States navy was
not unfounded. According to some Of
our own officers, there were 3.047 he.
sertious in our navy last year, an av-
erage Of one out of every seven enlist
ed. Besides this there were 100 dis
charges for improper conduct This is
not a very good showing. The cause
is said to be the idea every true Amer

that is unbearable. and into which he
was led to enlist by the false repre-
