Over an Inch Fell in a Short
Time.
Great Damage in the County to
Fences, Roads and
Bridges.
CROPS ARE ALSO INJURED

The rainfall yesterday afternoon
about O'Clock WAS in some sections
adjacent to Paducah the heaviest In
ten years, according to farmers who
came to town this morning. IL was
almost cloudburst. and many
bridges, culverts and much thing in
McCracken county are reported
washed away or ruined.
The rural mail carriers had great
trouble getting through. and one of
them, Mr.. Boyd Shemwell, was
forced to turn back. Most of the dam
age seems TO have been done out the
Mayfield road.
Countless crops were beaten down
by the rain, fences were washed
away, and all the creeks were soon
out of their banks.
Members bridge, about five miles
out the Msyfeld road, is reported
badly damaged. and farmers have to
60 about three miles out of the way.
The Boyer fill about four miles out
was also partially washed away.
In Paducah the rain was one OF the
hardest ever felt, and the official
record shows that in the comparative
ly short time the water poured down,
one inch and tenth fell The water
in many places flooded the streets and
cutters, but the atmosphere was
pleasantly cooled after the shower
ended.
A number of people were enjoying
the afternoon at the park when the
rain came up. and the returning cars
were all packed before the storm
broke, but few got wet, a. there was
plenty of shelter at the park.
In surrounding counties there is
also reported considerable damage
from the storm. In many places wind
and lightning accompanied the rain.
and near Palma, Marshall county,
where q Sunday school meeting was
being held, scores of women and chill
dren had close calls when bolt of
lightning struck near them and
knocked down six horses hitched near
the grove. The animals were only
stunned, however, and were soon up
again.
Lightning struck q horse belonging
to Mr.. Jim Shepherd. at Melber, this
county, yesterday afternoon and killed
the animal instantly.
The horse was hitched outside the
Methodist church and the owner was
inside attending services. When the
crash came the congregation was
thrown into a state of excitement and
it was some time before quiet was re-
stored. No one was injured. The
horse was . valuable animal and al
though near il were hitched several
others the others escaped,
In many places the county roads
are reported damaged, some OF the
gravel ones being almost washed away
in places.

Ancient Chinese Relic

San Francisco, May PA massive
gold seal. worth intrinsicaily $4,000. and
one of the priceless treasurers of an
cient Chinese dynasty, it is claimed.
has been offered for sale in this city
TO a local smelling company. Word
was sent from there to the Chinese
Consul General. He deciphered the
worn inscriptions upon 1t and declared
that 1t was one of the most valuable
relics OF an ancient Chinese dynasty.
He said the gold came from the grea,
range of the Khinga mountains ami
the sands of the Cobb desert and was
gathered by hand from the rocks and
channels more than 1000 years ago.
Melted and refined into a solid mass.
the artisans OF those ages carved the
inscriptions upon the gold that have
formed the official seal of the dynasty
for thousands of years. until more
modern times and great sway caused
new imper al seal to be developed.
Then the seal was delegated to the
nearest nephew of the Emperor as
his official signature. The seal was
subsequently withdrawn from sale by
its present owner, who claims to have
picked it up in China. 1t is said the
Chinese Consul Gene al has guaran-
teed the payment of $4,000 for il.
which is twice its intrinsic value if
melted .up

received here today.
The Russian cavalry numbered 20a
men, and their attack was spirited
The Japanese garrison resisted stoutly,
and succeeded in driving off the en-
emy. Later Japanese reinforcements
arrived from Ping Yang.
Indications point to the presence of
a Russian force at Yong Byong, be-
tween ANU and Unsan. but it prob
ably is small.
1t is evident that these Russians cav
alrymen were sent south for the pur-
pose of harassing the Japanese fianks
and lines of communication.
The Japanese report of the fighting
at Aniu does not give any losses.
Seoul, Corea, May 10, 3 D. m.-The
