A Rehearing of the Democratic
Primary Question Asked.
Petition Comes Up April 12-Hsrry
Tandy Has Another Deal
On.
MANY DIVERSIONS CONDEMNED
THE PRIMARY CASE.

Frankfort, April 4-John Ray, of
the counsel for Charles Meacham and
Colonel Hendrick filed today in the
Office of the clerk of court of appeals
petition for rehearing Of the
Meacham primary case. The petition
will be filed in open court April ~,
when the new term begins and will
probably be quickly disposed of.
In the petition Ray reiterstes that
Meachsm is responsible for portion
of the liability Incurred by the COM
mittee in paying the expenses Of q
primary. He says the court, after de-
Gliding it had no Jurisdiction as to the
party's authority to call a primary,
went out of its way to decide that the
primary was legally called That
while the court concluded IL could not
decide who was the governing author
ity of party, no issue was presented
as to that.

The court in closing said that times
have changed very r'pidly and the
Sabbath that our forefathers observed
was very different from ours, as wit.
ness those times when less than 100
years ago supposed witches were burn.
ed and even persons charged only with
working on the Sabbath vera tortured
at the stake by people who claimed to
be civilized, Times have undergone
a wonderful change since then, and
there is even great difference In the
Sabbath observed in various parts OF
our country, and between the rural
Sabbath and that of the big cities,
where everything is almost as open
and bustling as on week days. He said
that he remembered when he was

he always made 1t convenient to go ev-
cry Saturday. The reason was that
his folks always cooked everything
good imaginable ON Saturday in pre-
pairing for Sunday. Their religion
prevented them from cooking thing
on the Sababth, bat 1t did not ,prohib-
it their eating 1t ON Sunday, provided
IL had been cooked on Saturday. So
they always laid in Sundays stock on
Saturday.
The point was that II anyone in Pa
ducah finds himself handicapped by
the today's decision, he should do like

There is no law against ENJOYING il

can do is to follow in the footsteps of

and make only partial classification,

within its prohibition, according to

The warrants before the court for
Sabbath violation were then dismissed
The court said in regard to a warrant
against Mr.. L. A. Lsgomarsino, for
keeping his saloon open on the Sab
bath, that there was no evidence TO
sustain the charge, and he dismissed
the warrant. Mr.. Lagomarsino ad.
mitted that liquor contained in the
bill Of fare was furnished from his
sideboari to guests, and was not tax
on from his saloon, As to the ques-
tion of whether or not hotel keeper

Judge Sanders, in the police court
this morning rendered his opinion in
the Sabbath violation cases, and there
was quite crowd on hand to hear
him, among the spectators being May
OF Yeiser and q number Of city ofiici-
ala
As Q result OF the decision, there will
be more activity manifested down
town tomorrow. Judge Sanders said
before reading the opinion, which I'M
fortunately is so long that IL was i'm
possible to print 1t in full, that he had
decided these cases times after time,
and would decide the questions Of law
involved this time once for all. He
declared that II any one was not salts
fed and wanted to prosecute such
cases In the future they would have to
do 10 in some other court. lie said he
hoped that the cases would be taken TO
the court of last resort, and get an ex-
preston from them, but that strange
TO say ID seemed that the courts OF no
two states rendered opinions exactly
alike.
The cases before him were tried two
weeks ago. In which Robert Wilson,
Nick Smith, ". b. Mcpherson aud
others we're charged with violating
the Sabbath by selling groceries aud
cigars on Sunday.
All pleaded guilty rs TO fact except
Z. Farley & Son.
The court in his opinion goes back
TO Biblical times and traces the origin
of the Sabbath from its beginning to
the present day. He quotes from one
of the celebrated characters of the
Bible, who said as ears Of corn were
plucked in the field, 1.-The Sstb,th is
made for Man, not man for the Sab
bath" Fu.
A number Of cases in point from In.
diana, Texas and otner states are cited
and extracts from higher court decis-
ions given anent various questions in
vowed. One thing deducted is that
most all the courts in all states refuse
to consider American Sabbatical legis-
lation in any other than a secular
sense, most of tine courts distinctly
declaring that to give religious i'm
port to the law against Sabbath break.
ing In this country would be to do vi.
olence to the genius and spirit of free
institutions. In the language of the
supreme court Of California, "when,
therefore, citizen is sought to be
compelled by the Legislature to do any
affirmative religious act, or to refrain
from doing anything, because simply
it involves religious principle or oh
ssrvsnce, the act is unconstitutional. "
From the oath American Encyclo-
pedia. page Sal, is quoted; ut is i'm
possible to lay down any general rule
as to work of charity or necessity. 1t
might be said in general that supply
ing the ordinary demands Of our ply
steal nature and relieving from the
situations of peril and exposures, are
necessary acts which incur no blame,
still the exigencies of human life
which demand works of charity and
necessity are so numerous and SO d.

The Tug Echo Runs Wildin Mid
Stream Here.
Collided with the Ferry Boat and a
Coal Dock at the
Wharf.
o ONE WAS ABOARD

The little steam tuRboat Echo, " of
the Leyhe fleet, broke loose from the
steamer Bald Eagle this morning
about o'clock and ran straight into
the ferrybost Bette Owen, then veer-
ing of slid along the guards of the
ferry and ran into the st. Bernard coal
docks where Ed Freels, the Waterman.
jumped aboard and shut of the steam,
Just in time to prevent her running
down a shantyboat.
The Bald Eagle had Just left her
winter harbor here on her way to st.
Louis and the echo" was dashed to
her side. The tug had on q full head
of steam and was assisting the larger
boat in leaving the harbor. When
the boats had come opposite Court
street the tug suddenly broke loose
and made straight for the feriyboat
which was moored at her landing at
the foot of Court street. Engineer Joe
Flasch and George Strader. q deck
hand of the Bette Owen, were stand
ing on the outerguard and saw the. tug
making for them. Engineer Flasch re-
marked that it was singular that the
pilot did not turn aside or the engi-
Deer slow down bit, as the tug was
coming pretty fast and would be hard
to turn aside. As the Echo approach
ed nearer 1t was seen that no one was
aboard and great excitement prevail
cd.
She struck the ferryboat full in the
side and knocked great hole in the
guard but fortunately striking her
hull with little force. strader jumped
board, but did not understand the
machinery and could not shut of the
steam. Ed Freels, the watohman on
the docks, realizing the danger, jumped
aboard and after experimenting with
the different valves, found the throt-
tie and shut off the steam. A line
was thrown out to the docks and the
tug made fast to await the claim Of the
officers who arrived soon after and
took charge.
Tho engineer of the tug stated that
he was at breakfast and had left the
boat securely fastened, he thought.
The pilot was also aboard the Bald Ea-
gle and thought the boat in charge of
the engineer. 1t is supposed that the
swift current and the see-sawing Of
the boats wore the lines In two, and
let the tug run wild" The Echo's
stem is badly dented but the damage
is comparatively little. The damage
on the ferryboat is thought to be
slight although thorough examina-
tion has not been made. Only few
saw the accident and it was one of the
rarest on record.
