spOnsible for Blaze.
Fire was discovered yesterday morn
ing about daylight at the house of M.
c. O'Driscoll, though no damage re-
suited from the blaze. The back stoop
was in flames.
The origin of the fire could not be
discovered, and Mr.. Driscoll reported
the matter to the police. Detective
Bostick was detailed on the case ard
he says Mr.. Driscoll's dog started the
fire. There is really no way of tell

be no further investigation. The fire
started where the dog sleeps and the
detectives theory is that the dog start

something of the sort.

oused Of starting rough house" a
the Lincoln colored school building
that she "simply gotten riled" and
had gone to the building to scalp Z
few teachers and incidentally to make
an example of several pupils who hat
been imposing on her child.
Judge Sanders thought she had gone
little too far in attempting TO rur
the schools and imposed . fine of $2C
and costs. He stated that this fine was
very lenient on his part as really the
woman had committed rather q seri-
Gus offense, and inasmuch as she
pleaded guilty, he would fix her fine
ct the smallest amount he felt he
could fine her under the circumstances.
The Miller woman had gone to the
Lincoln school to thrash several boys
who had slapped her daughter, it
seems, and when Principal Benton
and G.. +. Porter, q teacher, asked
her to leave, refused and stated she
would soon clean out the building.
She was finally elected and her arrest
followed.

UNUSUAL CASE
PADUUAH MAN INDICTED OVER
A STEER AT wICKLIFFE.

Hon. E. W. Bsgby goes to Wick
life Monday to attend court and de-
fend q Paducah man under indict-
ment there for grand larceny. The
case is said TO have been the result of
malice pure and simple, and as il
would be unpleasant to the Paducah
man, his name is not given out by the
attorney.
The facts are, however, that he sold
a steer 20 . local dealer and man
from Ballard county came here and
claimed it. He and his witnesses
could not identify it, however, and
although they were told that if they
would go before a notary public and
make oath that it belonged to the man
who claimed it they could have it
they declined to do it. A writ of de-
livery was then taken out, and be.
cause the claimants could not estab-
lish their ownership the case was
thrown out Of court. The men then
returned to Ballard county, it is
claimed, and had the Paducah man in
dicted for grand larceny. The attor.
ney does not anticipate any trouble In
securing prompt acquittal.

Roberts & Co.'S Attorneys Say
They Will Decline the Offer.
Judge Lightfoot Authorized to Tender
the Money-Finance Committee
Orders Liscense Collected.
CITY TIRED OF TEST SUITS

The finance committee of the gen.
eral council held a meeting at the city
hall last night and decided to offer
Roberts & Co., Of New York, 81, 500
to dismiss their $4,000 damage suit
against the city.
The members Of this committee are
Aldermen Orme, Kraus and Singleton,
and Couniclmen Riglesberger, Reh-
kopf and Ingram. Some of them when
the suit was discussed were inlfavor OF
fighting it to the last ditch. but those
in favor of rendering this amount in
compromise to get rid OF the litiga-
ton were in the majority. The action
will apparently amount to nothing.
however, as Attorney Crice, Of Bloom
field and Crice. attorneys for Roberts
and Co., stated today that they would
respectfully decline any amount under
1900, which is the sum they offered
some time ago to compromise for.
The result will be that the case will
probably go to trial in federal court
Monday. Judge r. T. Lightfoot,
who is retained by the city in the case,
was authorized to tender the money to
the plaintiffs in the case.
An llportant matter acted on by
the finance committee last night wss
that of paying city license. 1t was
ordered that the license inspector at
once collect the full license and i,ez-
atty from those who have not paid.
including all those who recently insti.
tuted lawsuit to test the validity Of
the license ordinance. The penalty is
ten per cent on the amount of license,
due after February and will make
quite an addition to the original
"We are getting tired of this law
suit business" vehemently declared
one member of the committee today.
"Some Of our merchants brought suit
to test the law, and they have been
beaten. They should now pay the Ii
cense and penalty, and this is what we
have ordered collected from them.
The city is good for any amount it IL
legally collects, and as the city has
needed the money and it has not been
paid, think, as did others, that the
penalty should now be added. 1t has
got so some people don't want to pay
anything, and when they are called
on, the first thing they want to do is to
rush into the courts to test the law,
which puts the city to great deal Of
trouble and expense and often, as in
this case, keeps her out of money she
needs and should have" Other than
going over the accounts the finance
committee transacted no business ex-
cept the above.
