A PLEASANT TIME
SPENT IN PADUCAH
Illinois Central Officials Spend
the Night Here.
Many Of Them Formerly Worked
on the Louisville
Division.
STARTED AGAIN THIS MORNING

The |. c. annual inspection train
bearing the inspecting officials of the
road, arrived in Paducah yesterday
afternoon about 4 o'clock from Gre
NADIA, Miss, and remained in Padu'
cab over night, leaving this morning
at C O'Clock for the Louisville divis
ion.
The train was composed of half a
dozen coaches. those of General Man.
ager w. J. Harahan. Chief Engineer
II. U. Wallace, Assistant General
Manager /. G. Rawn, Assistant Gen
eral Manager Southern Lines II. Nc
Court, Principal Assistant Engineer
ii. r. Stafford, and besides the above
named officials, roadmasters, train
masters, superintendent, supervisors
dispatchers and many other minor
officials were on the train.
Col. Jack Flynn, superintendent OF
the Louisiana division, Mr.. L. A.
Downs, roadmaster on the Spring
field division, who was formerly road
master here; Roadmaster HiIs, OF
the Tennessee division, who was for
merly supervisor of the Cairo extern
sion while in course Of construction;
j. J. Gaven, supertendent of the Ten
nessee division and several others,
including Supt. Egan, Roadmaster
Thompson and Trainmaster Jones, Of
Louisville, were in the party.
After the train was sidetracked
here, the party went over the l. c.
shops and local terminals. This
work required nearly two hours and
it was about dark when the inspec-
ton was finished.
Many officials took supper on the
cars but some went to the Palmer
House. After supper several higher
officials played pool and billiards to
pass away the time, and their stay in
Paducah was pleasant.
This morning at G o'clock the train
pulled out of the union depot and
will go straight through to Louis
willie today inspecting en- route. The
train has an observation car that reg
listers the grade, the speed Of the
train, and every other thing, includ-
ing bad rails. low places in the road
bed, and leaves but little for the in
spectors to note with their eye.
Louisville will be reached this af.
ternoon late and the party will start
back tomorrow and inspect the Cairo
extension. The route after the Cairo
extension has been inspected. has
not been fixed. but it is presumed the
party will go north.
This was the first time Col. Jacl
Flynn, Roadmaster Downs, Roadmas
ter Hills and other officials who had
worked on the Louisville division
had met on their old camping ground
and they were shaking hands will
their old friends in the Palmer las
night. Col. Flynn was here durin
the summer for a day or two. on hi
way to Dawson, Cerulean and Mu
Lava Springs, Ind, and now is 1
perfect health. He is the same jovia
fellow and those fortunate enough I
get to see him last night were great
pleased.

STRICTLY HONEST.

Jones was an honest gentleman.
He wouldn't cheat or steal
or profit by a shady plan
Or an on color deal.
But still he didn't seem 10 care
At least he never cried
II the conductor missed his fare
When on a street car ride.
He wouldn't steal the widows mite.
He wouldn't rob a TIL,
And neither did he think II right
To beat an honest bill.
But every time he got chance
To beat a street car ride
with glec he'd tell the circumstance
And swell foot with pride.
He wouldn't slyly pocket stun
Though no one was around;
A redhot stove was safe enough
Though he were on the ground.
But when the car conductor came
He'd try 20 miss his eye.
And II II helped 20 beat the game
Would tell downright lie.
Nor was he such a wicked cuss,
In morals dull and lame.
For Il is true the best Of us
VIII often do the same.
And let one without asking odds
A street car company beat,
His conscience an approval mods.
And. oh. his sleep Is sweet

He one day thought over the matter;
Resentment awoke in his breast
He wondered just where he was getting
Returns for behaving his best.
And straightway the man fell 20 kicking
He kicked with both vigor and speed
And saw with surprise that the people
To that sort OF language gave heed
The quiet man set his new method
A-working wherever he went;
He found that his kick was winner;
His rudeness he did not repent.
He says that he doesn't get snubbed now
For him things no longer are slow;
He wishes that he had learned sooner
To kick when he wants things to go.

PERT PARAGRAPHS.

Somehow the steel trust does not
seem to prove the old maxim about
having too many irons in the fire.
We say that a clock keeps time, al
though time gets away from 1t the
same as from the rest OF us.
Grass widows should beware OF those
who are eating grass for dyspepsia.

There are several superstitious
people about this town, both
colored and white. They be.
lieve in spooks and buried treas
ures. There is one mamie is q
white man-who has spent a hun.
dred dollars recently buying dip
needles and other instruments
that are said to locate buried
treasures, and there are q great
many colored men-old men,
who are fools enough to bite at
this same bate, and it seems to
US since q couple of them have
got in Jail for being such dam
fools that the others would quit
Or at least take warning from
what has happened to others of
their ilk. The fortune tellers who
are following shows and pay
mems get in their work on this
class OF ignorant people, rob
them, and cause them to get into
serious trouble b. following their
advice.

build a shack, got arrested by
the city marshall, and fined by
the city mayor, refused to pay
the fine. refused to appeal, and
yet is not in jail, Now why is
this diff lei ence made between a
common old cuss who gets drunk,
which is a violation of the law,
and a city councilman who vio-
lates the law? We think that all
law breakers should be treated in
the same way, be they rich or
poor, high or low, and it is bad
precedent to establish that one
man can be convicted of q crime
and not be put in jail when he
refuses to pay q fine and refuses
to make bond or appeal and then
anotqer man who does the same
thing is thrown in. "Oh, consis.

General Torres En- Route to st. Louis.

General Luis +. Torres, commanding

and veteran of many Yaqui cam

St. Louis where he will visit the ex-
position
General Torres trip was delayed by
the recent uprising of Yaquis in the
country north of Guaymas and he is
fresh from the scene of that trouble,
having left Colonel Barron, an old and
experienced officer, in command of the
troops guarding the towns, ranches
and roads of the section of country
where the Indians have been commit
ing depredations.
81 anticipate no further trouble
with the "mansos" or tame Indians
who have been causing the recent
troubles near Guaymas," said General
Torres, "as the extreme measures we
parsued with those found guilty of
completely in the attacks have proven
a lesson to their fellows. L feel that
the only solution of the Yaqui question
of Sonora is the ultimate deportation
of all me embers of that race to Yucatan,
and as fast as possible we are carrying
out that policy. If Indian labor is
needed on the ranches, the Yaquis can
be replaced by the more peaceful Mayos
who dwell in southern Sonora and
northern Sinaloa. Tucson Post

Greene PidCerS.

Jim Wilkie is in Douglas from
Greene's big placer camp on the San
Domingo. This camp will be one of
the greatest gold producers in Sonora
inside of year. The pay dirt lies in
the bottom of deep canyon and is
under layer of river wash.
The pay streak is from two to eight
inches thick and is exceedingly rich
The waste covering the pay dirt will
be removed and the gold collected by
a hydraulic system. For time the
work of installing the machinery has
ceased, owing to the recent high water.
AS soon as the rainy season ends the
work will be resumed with renewed
vigor. The company is financed by
some of the wealthiest men in the east,
and is an exceedingly strong one. Mr..
Wilkie will go from here to Bisbee and
