LIVELY ENCOUNTER
Manager James E English and Mr.,
P.F, Toof Have a Fight.
Trouble Originated Over Local Option
and Will Be Aired Tomorrow.

A warrant was this morning sworn
out by Officers Harlan and Ola,
against Manager James e., English, of
The Kentucky theater, and Mr.. p II.
Toof. of the Cohankus company, who
was chairman of the recent local OPP
tion committee, for breach Of the
peace. They are alleged TO have en-.
gagged in fight at McPherson's drug
store last night about $3.50 O'Clock. Z
As usual the accounts of the trou-
BILE vary, but Sam Jones' proposed
visit this spring, and local option start
ed it. Mr.. English claims that Mr..
Toof resented some statements he,
Mr.. English, made in regard to To-
cal option to Druggist Mcpherson,
and when they began a heated alter
cation, Mr.. Mcpherson asked them
not to have any trouble in his store.
Mr.. English invited the other out,
and claims that before they got out
the door Mr.. Toof struck him under
the left eye while he was not look
ing.
MIR. Toof claims that Mr.. English
called him q liar, and that Mr.. En-
elisa knew he was going to strike
him. Officers Harlan and CLARK Claim
that the two were inside the store, one
or both loudly talking. when they ar
rived q short time afterwards. Man.
sger English's eye is painfully bruised
but there seems to have been only one
lick struck The affair will come up
tomorrow in police court.

HOW TO LIVE LoNo.
Woman centenarian Gives Advice y
All Concerned.

Another eenterarisn. Mrs Frank
Young Of Worcester. has given TO the
world her recipe for living 10 be 100
years old. The regimen she pre-
scribes is very different from that
prescribed by some others: Oct up
early IN the morning. eat breakfast
soon after dressing; do not have oat-
meal. but eggs and a cup Of strong
coffee with cream and sugar In u:
work hard all the forenoon; cat din
ner at ~ O'Clock. with soup and such
vegetables and meats as you like, with
fruit, but without pies or sweet
things: work hard in the afternoons
eat hearty supper At night. with
soup. meat and vegetables: enjoy
yourself In the evening and before
going early TO bed drink a cup OF tea
and eat slice OF bread; do not
smoke. drink intoxicating liquors or
lead an immoral or fast life. She
advises girls not TO go TO dances and
theaters often. but to 10 TO church
regularly. and, II married. to have
large families. She herself has been
the mother Of eight children. two Of
whom are alive.

THE MILLENNIUM IN SIGHT.

1t is very gratifying to note the
praiseworthy suggestion to Danish cor
porations from Paducah, and place the
various institutions in the hands OF
the able officials who have from time
TO time been elected by the Democrats
to hold office and manufacture comfort
and happiness for 20, 900 or more peo-
pie. We have no doubt that the move
ment will be a bowling success. All
you have to do is convince the able
statesmen in charge Of affairs of the
practicability of the policy, and they
will do the rest.
Psducah has just wound up one
year Of a sl.S5 tax rate. This raised
something like $3.50, 900, and only
about ego, 900 In debts, not including
our bonded liability, are now outstand-
ing. The able statesmen have under
.sdvisement a plan to float this small
$50, 900 balance by bond issue, which
would leave the city practically clesr
of immediate debt.
Then the municipal ownership dele.
CATION may proceed to work. They
might first repair the light plant, which
the city already owns. 1t will cost
only from $1,000 to $4,000 to do
this. but after 1t has been done, there is
a possibility that the city will have
good lights. We neglected to state,
however, that the question of where
to get the money is one that advocates
of municipal ownership must not al
low to embarrass them. IL makes nc
difference about the money. That il
something entirely too trivial and
mercenary to be taken into consider
alton when contemplating the masni'
ficent principles of municipal owner
ship.
After the light plant has been re-
haired and more light is thrown Oh
the subject, Mayor Yeiser, Councilman
Joseph Potter and the Others may ther
buy the water works. The last tim'
the plant was appraised, it didn't cos
but a trifie over 100000, and proba
bly, hash much more than trebled il
value since then. and considering thu
revenue the city would get from it
and the much better manner In which
IL would undoubtedly run it, the bene
fits to the people would be such a
to make half a million dollars
cheap consideration.
After having purchased the waite
works, our officials could next buy tn
gas works. They could probably b
bought for couple of hundred thous
and dollars, and considering that the
might furnish inexnaustible uiateria
for the present Democratic admanis
tration to use in convincing the p~p

The increase in wages made last
week IN so many parts of the coun-
try and IN so many different avoca-
tions, shows more conclusively than
anything the prosperity of the country
The raise the telegraphers alone re-
oeive will amount TO over a million
dollars annually. The increases the
railroads have made recently, most Of
them voluntary, will amount to many
more million, all of which will flow
into every known channel of trade and
make times much better this year than
last. In fact the perpetual prosperity
Of the country is assured as long as
the Democrats with their silly idea Of
free silver, imperialism, free trade and
other things, continue to be squelohed
at every election.

Citizens who daily travel over these
beautiful streets of Paducah, or even
who have to cross them on bad day,
wonder what benefits they received
from the 800, 900 spent on the streets
during the four years of the previous
administration. 100000 would have
built twenty-five or thirty blocks of
brick or asphalt streets, but money
never was judiciously spent on the
streets in Paducah.

THE PENSION LIST.

Ut APPEARS from the annual re-
port of Secretary of the Interior
- Hitchcock. that the total number
of pensioners of the United States
eft the close of the last fiscal year was
99G,545. The high water mark was
reached on June 3Oth, 1902, when there
were 997, 135 pensioners on the rolls
The appropriation for the payment of
pensions for the fiscal year wak $13S,-
100000.
According to the statement made in
Congress in 1902. there was mt that time
one pensioncr for every seventy-ive of
the population of the country. 1t was
recalled that President Garfield thirty
years ago estimated the limit OF possible
pension expenditures at $50, 100000 1t
WAS averred that Russia WAS the only
country of Europe that paid more for
the support of its standing army than
the United States pays in pensions, and
that England, with her great military
and navy establishments. paid only &c.
100000 of late years on pension account.
Such comparisons could be multiplied to
show that no other country has been as
generous as the United States has been
in rewarding it's disabled defenders The
amount paid by the United States, in
pensions has greatly exceeded the cost
of the Civil War.
While the pension roll is now dimin-
ishing, many years will elapse before the

From Thursdays Daily.
There are tricks in all trades, from
springing fake attractions at carnivals
to digging up Cardiff giants. The fol-
lowing story comes from Dubuque:
Edward Stop, Fort Dodge teamster,
learned that Minnie the Wild Grip
whose feats aroused the awe of thous-
ands of visitors to the carnival there was
none other than his fourteen year old
son, who ran away from home two years
ago, and administered spanking to the
hayward youth before the eyes of a
curious throng.
Minnie" had just snapped off the
head of a snake with her teeth when
the elder Stop rushed up to the stand,
grabbed his son by the nape of the neck
and proceeded to spank him. The savage
grunts of the wild girl suddenly changed
to walls. The boy confessed that he
had posed as a wild girl at salary of
500 a month. His manager, Mime
apolis man, disappeared when the fake
was revealed.
