A Number OF School Authorities,
Since Objection IL Raised
Seem to Agree.
RULE MAY BE ABOLISHED

The rules Ms revised by the school
board committee were last night
adopted by the board OF education,
with the exception OF one relating to
reading the Bible at the opening re-
ligious exercises in the public schools
every morning. A petition from Jew
ish citizens was read asking that the
reading Of the Bible be not compelled

The board referred the matter for .

The question threatens to cause

Decreased by Order From Chi
cagO From Ten to Nine.
Does Not Affect the Boiler Depart
ment, Where Only Eight Hours
Are Worked.
DULL BUSINESS THE CAUSE,

An order was issued out OF Chicago
by the higher officials of the I. @. this
morning authorizing q general cut in
working hours in the mechanical de-
partment of the road, and a bulletin
was posted in the local shops this
morning to that effect.
The bulletin posted here this morn
ing reads that on account Of the de-
crease In business and the decrease IN
earnings, the working hours in the
entire locomotive and car shops of the
Paducah system will be cut from ten
to nine hours. except in the boiler
shops where the work day Will be
eight hours only. The work day will
begin ct Q. m. and close at 5 p. m.
allowing from 10 TO colo ok for din
ner. The boilermakers will quit work
at O'Clock.
This cut did not come as surprise
as it has been known the officials con-
templated q cut. The earnings OF
every road in the country have per-
ceptibly fallen off and both in the east
and west out in forces and working
hours have been made. The business
of the I. @. has been increasing mp
until the past few months when trou-
BILE in the mining districts began. The
coal business on this system amounts
to about 35 per cent and cuts big
figure.
An official stated this morning re-
garding the cause Of the cut. 81 have
been here several times during the past
several years and have seen the shoI
forces gradually expand until this sea
son it was larger than ever before
The company has experienced mucl
prosperity and would not have made
the cut had there been any way out Of
the matter. We anticipate no further
cut in either forces or hours, but
think the business will pick up gen
orally soon, and the work day length
ened."
When asked about the increase il
money paid the local employees wher
the forces were increased the ofiicia
stated that he felt sure the pay roll
here would show an increase OF 80,
900 in the past two years. One hou
cut of each employees time will

This afternoon the Paducah club
and the Cairo sluggsrs will begin
series of six games, three to be played
on the Cairo and three on the Padu-
cab grounds, and if Paducah succeeds
in defeating Cairo. will mean tie in
the percentage column and the fight
for first place in the league standing
will be on in earnest.
The standing of the clubs show Pa
ducah 100 per cent behind Cairo, but
one game will tie the team IL won by
Paducah. This is the first time Cairo
and Paducah sluggers have met this
season and Captain Gilligan and his
braves have got it fixed mp" for the
Egyptians. Freeman is to do today's
twirling and tomorrow Brady will 60
in the box. Thursday Brahic or Nc
Gill will be in the pitchers box and
Gilligan intends to give the top
notchers a run for their money.
Money is being bet freely today but
il is bet about even. Paducah sports
are giving odds on Paducah but Cairo
ties know Freeman and are wary Of
the bets they make. Brady pitches
for tomorrow, is known to be in
trim and said he never felt better In
his life. With Sherman. the new re-
cruit, on third and Gerard in the
outheld, Paducsh's infield and outfield
can't be beat, and tine entire batting
order has been doctored for the very
best results.
The lineup of the locals for today's
game as near as Manager Ray could
give tits as follows: Land catcher,
Freeman, pitcher. Violet, first base,
Potts, second base, Sherman, third
base, Gilligan. short stop; McGill left
field, Barlow, center field, Brady or
Gerard right field.
The public is waiting for McGill to
20 into the box. He is youngster
from Louisville who has played In
faster company than many boys his
age. He is said to have speed to burn
and being a left handed twirler will
make Paducah's pitching STAFF strong
indeed. M
Manager Ray has telegraphed Eddie
Powers, center fielder for Cairo last
season who wants to come to Paducah
to play ball, that his terms have been
accepted and to report to the Paducah
team at once. He will meet the boys
in Cairo and will Immediately take
charge OF center garden. Barlow will
90 to left field and Gerard will proba-
bly, be retired to the utility bench.
There was catch in the signing OF
"Chief" Lloyd, he wanting NOR
than the local management wants to
pay. He is in correspondence with the
DAYTON, O., team and will probably
go with them. Lloyd is a good man
with . thorough knowledge Of the
game, and has more steam this season
than ever before.
Ben Nippert, who caught for Padu'
can the trst Of the season aud later
jumped his contract, will manage the
Sydney. O., Independents team.
A strong amateur team will be or
ganized soon to play the l.. A. L.
team series of three games to decide
the local championship. The bes'
men in the city outside Of the L.
A. L. players, will be secured. Dick'
will do the pitching for the new
team.
President Sam Jackson left with tn
Indians this morning and will witnes
the initial game between the rival to-
notchers. vincennes gives Paduca
the credit for the strongest team
both in hitting and fielding.

An Hour of Mourning.

One of the members of the board
of trustees of the university this
morning expressed himself as heartily
in favor of a general suspension Of
business during the hour of the fu-
neral of DR.. Lewis on Thursday. He
said it would be a good thing if This
feature was observed in every city in
the state, and he hoped it would be
universally observd in Laramie. The
hour of the funeral will be given. and
his idea is to have the stores and
places of business closed for that hour,
whether the doors were locked or not.
