Prospects Seem Good for Getting
the Wabash Here.
Officials Addressed a Meeting Last
Night and a Committee Was
Appointed.
WILL CANVASS THE CITY

A meeting of the Commercial club
and other interested citizens was held
at the city hall last night for the pur-
pose Of hearing q proposition from the
Toledo, st. Louis and New Orleans rail
road relative to building into Padu-
cab from Brookport.
President Stanley Dubois, Of the
Commercial club, was in the chair, and
Judge e. b Green, of Csrmi, Ill. counsel
for the new road, prominent men,
Der of the Illinois bar and former men,
Der of the supreme bench of that state,
was first introduced and stated that
the road desired to come into Paducah
snd would do SO for bonus Of $780,
900. In edition to the many sdvan-
tages to be derived from the entrance
of the new road, he declared that six
times the above an cunt will be expend-
ed In building terminals here and 9TH
err things.
The supposition is that the Wabash
owns the Toledo, st. Louis and New
Orleans, which will run from Efing-
ham, ILL.,, via Golconds to Brookport.
At Paducsh connections could be made
by the Wabash with the N. @. and st.
L. for the coast, giving IL a direct
line. Judge Green stated that in case
the road did come here, he was conf.
dent IL would be only four or five
years until bridge is built over the
Ohio at Paducah.
President W. M. Burns, of the road
alsosddressed those present, his tall
being along the same line as Judge
Green's. Alderman Singleton at the
conclusion Of the speech moved that
acommittee of three be appointed by
President DUBOIS TO investigate thu
feasibility of raising the $3.50, 900
desired by the road.
The motion prevailed, one member
of the committee to be city official
one a member Of the Commercial clul
and the other citizen not affiliated
There is no special time set for the re
port. -
President Dubois this morning ap
, poipted the committee, consisting o
Alderman G. G. Singleton, Mr.. b. II
Scott from the city at large and MIR
W. F. Paxton of the Commercial club
A meeting was set for 10 O'Clock thi
morning, but was deferred, and ther'
is no time set for it at present.
This committee will insugurate 9
canvass in Paducah to secure funds
II is tipped off that Paducah will ge
the road, but something will have T.
be given for it. just what this il
cannot be determined now.
The committee will make repor
when its work is sufficiently advanced
to enable II to do so.
The visiting officials were tods,
, driven over the city by Mr.. B. H
SCOTT, and left ON the Joe Fowler 70
Goloonda, which place their road will
touch, making an air line directly
south from bingham, ILL.,, to Padu
oah. They expect to return shortl,

The cashier had interestedly listened

"You see, it is this way: Bills stick

His Dog Identified Him.

Bank clerks naturally and necessarily
require satisfactory Identification Of
persons who ask to have checks cashed.
The same rule is followed in the post
office by clerks who cash money orders,
but what the nature Of the Identified

which rest to some extent in the dis
erection of the clerk. The Boston Her
aid tells story in which dog bore
witness to his masters identity.
A Boston business man called at the
postal order department to get an or
der cashed, but the clerk in attendance
had only recently been appointed. He
said the caller would have to be identi-
fed before payment could be made.
"Why, have had hundreds of orders
cashed here" he replied, with a show
of impatience. isn't there some one
here who knows me|'

A clergyman who had recently been
installed as the new pastor of an Epis-
copal church boosted of his broad
mindedncss and orthodoxy. His ambi-
ton was to become a popular clergy
man. With this end in view he en-
braced every opportunity to announce
the fact that his advice and good of
fees We're ut the service of any one,
therefore, no matter of what creed
color or religion.
One day he was urgently requested
to attend Il house of sickness. On in
quiry he discovered that the sick per-
son was a Presbyterian. Regardless of
this, however. he wendell his way, en-
tered the house rs Il good Samaritan
