Board of Public Works to Ask
for Bitulithic Bids.
Third Street to bo Rolled NAll the
Way to Broad
Street
STREETS TO BE sPRINKLEI

The board of public works, at its
regular meeting last night, has decid.
ed to recommend that the city ask for
bids on the bitulithic paving when the
bond funds become available. II the
cost Of the bitulithic paving should be
under that of brick streets, the chances
are that Paducah will have streets
made of it,
1t was decided to use the street
roller on Third street to make repairs
all the way up to Broad as soon as the
work now being done on West Broad
way is finished. The board will in
clude Third street in the list of those
to be paved, but does not think that
any of the work will be done in that
part of the city this year, and will ac-
cordingly have temporary repairs
made with the roller.
An important decision was that to
keep the streets already rolled, sprin-
killed. this summer, and ascertain if
this will not prevent much wear, and
save the city money. 1t is believed
that the cost of sprinkling will not be
as much as the cost OF repairing the
streets would be if they are not
sprinkled The streets torn up and
rolled since the board went into Office
are Kentucky, Broadway and Jeffer.
son, and they are all said to be in ex-
cellent condition.
The board would like to have a
water car to sprinkle the streets on
which there are car tracks, but rs it
would call for an appropriation and
none seems to be available Just now,
the car may not be purchased this
year.

Many Localities of
Kentucky.
PLANTS ARE DOING WELL

From Greensboro we hear that sew
eral lots Of strips put mp this season
have been disposed of, says the West.
ern Tobacco Journal. The American
Tobacco company bought about 1 200
hogsheads from Birk Brothers, about
800 hogsheads from Hughes & Phil
lips, with lot Of 200 hogsheads put
mp by Mr.. Cheatham being under
option. Mr.. Cook sold 80 hogsheads
TO Louisville buyer and 75 hogsheads
on Richmond. Va, account. Hunter
Bell is reported to have sold 100 hogs
heads to the same party in Virginia.
Some lots of leaf have been disposed
OF in Owensboro to be delivered like
strips, when dry, to manufacturers in
Evansville and Nashville, as we'll as
to Louisville and Richmond, who will
use all such as substitutes for hurley.
Farmers being busy planting corn
and doing other work, little business
was done in loads from the country.
From Henderson we hear of little
being done last week, very few loads
being delivered, owing to the favor

plant corn and attend to other matters
delayed hitherto.
From jacksonville, we understand
the market for sound dark spinning
tobacco has advanced Ia TO 81 cents,
with much more free buying by Hodge
& Jones and Mailman, intending to
put into leaf. good account Of sales Of
leaf in England lately having led to
such. The only lot of strips sold for
home trade is "a lot Of $50 hogsheads
sold by Pratt & Hill, Manitou, Hop.
kins county, who are now buying
again and putting into leaf. Four dol
lars and up to ~. 40 a pound has been
paid recently for crops, which ". a
good advance on previous prices, and
all to the advantage of the farmers
1t is not supposed that many more
strictly good crops are now to be had.
We hear of no sales Of strips in
Henderson for home trade, so that IL
is more than probable that all the ]
strips and leaf put mp there will be
exported,

THE FIRST BOAT
FROM LOUISVILLE
1t Arrived in Louisville in 1871
From Pittsburg.
The Washington Went From Louis.
Vile to New Orleans in
40 Days.
1T WAS GOOD TIME THEN

The first steamboat that ever plowed
the waters Of the Ohio was the New
Orleans" built by Robert Fulton, says
the Louisville Times.
In October. 1911, this boat left
Pittsburg, arriving at Louisville -four
days later, on quiet moonlight
night, when all the Inhabitants were
asleep.
They had not heard even rumor
Of such a thing as a steamboat, so
when the Kissing and blowing Oft OF
steam, and the putting of the engine
as the boat rounded to, broke the
stiffness OF the night, pandemoni um
reigned for awhile among the excited
people. Some thought the world had
come to an end. or an earthquake had
visited them. while Others thought a
comet had fallen into the Ohio aud
was making its regulation down its
waters.
They lied from their houses. clad in
their night robes. and lined the banks
Of the river, gazing in swo az this
wonderful invention OF man.
All along the banks OF the river,
from Pittsburg 10 Louisville, the
settlers were greatly alarmed, and
watched with terror the rapid progress
the boat made over the water and
trembled at the terrible noise.
A little over month afer this event
Kenucky was visited by a fearful
earthquake shock which threatened
to destroy Louisville and other towns.
These vibrations continued, at in
tervsls, for over four months, which
caused great uneasiness throughout
the state. This was no steamboat
scare, and the Inhabitants bad just
cause for the suspension Of business
while uncomfortable fear had posses.
sion Of them.
In April, 1917, q grand dinner was
given in honor of Capt. shreve for
making q voyage on the steamer
Washington" from Louisville to
New Orleans and back in forty-fve
days. This was considered the
most wonderful and quickest trip in
navigation ON record. Thus road
from this state was opened to
the south, connecting IL With the
world at large.
There was one other way In
which to reach the South, and that
was through the wilderness. A
road was made from Louisville TO |
Nashville. over which wagon traffic |
went from one city to the other The
drivers would camp in the wilderness
over night aud resume their journey
In the morning; but this was very
dangerous travelling for the Indians
were very numerous and frequently
stacked the parties.
