REvENGE.-Little Eddie and his
father had been transacting certain
disagreeable business in the nursery.
When the young man emerged there
were tears stains on his cheeks and a
lingering look of resentment in his
eyes. His Aunt Ella in the tender
ness of her heart thought to divert
his mind from his troubles. so she
asked him:
What are you going to be when
you grow up?"
An expression of set determination
came to his face. and he jerked his
head menacingly as he answered:
"Im going to be father.

ecution.
TRAMPs ARE ALSO BARRED

Officials on the Illinois Central have
issued orders to conductors. yard men
and other railroad employees to look
sharp to railroad bicycles and to pro-
hibit bicycles from being ridden on
the railroad tracks.
Bulletins have been issued out of
superintendent J J. Gaven's Office
at Fulton notifying the railroad en-
ployes that bicycle rail attachments
have again been placed on the market
and to look out for bicyolists on the
Tennessee division and to report all
cases of violation to the officials who
will take steps to prosecute. There
were several of these railroad bicycle
attachments sold by the local dealers
two years ago, but as the use Of the
attachment was prohibited on the l.
O. and N. @. g. st. l.. roads, the
dealers stopped selling them.
Tho attachment Is nothing more than
a few iron rods attached to the frame
of the bicycle and supporting on the
other end q small guide wheel which
keeps the bicycle wheels on the rail-
road track. In the east several scci-
dents were caused by the use Of this
attachment, and they cost the railroad
company several thousand dollars.
OF late railroad conductors and road
employees have been permitting tramps
to ride on trains free, in consideration
for what service they might offer In
handling freight. The conductors dc
this on account of the increased bust
ness, and it helps sometimes in max
ing the schedule time. Several acci
dents have resulted and damage suit
filed against the l. O. and all employ
az are being warned against confirm
ing this practice.
Bulletins were posted in the train
men quarters at tho local depot-today
and ali conductors disobeying thes'
orders will be laid of or othel
means of punishment adopted.

No Sand, and Work Will Have
TO be Suspended Pretty Soon.
Street Car Company Wants to Use
Its Tracks, Partially
Torn Up.
FLOOD PREVENTS PUMPING

The indications are that the work
of paving South Third street between
Broadway and Kentucky avenue will
have to be suspended by Contractor
Terrell in a few days. At present the
excavations are being made and will
not be completed until early next
week, possibly by the middle Of the
week. When these are complete the
contractor will be ready for sand.
At present no sand il proourable in
Paducah because of the high water.
Nearly all of it has been used up, and
new supply cannot be obtained un-
til the river subsidies. When this will
be cannot be predicted. 1t is claimed
by some Of the sand men that they
cannot get sand until the river goes
down to 80 or 33 feet, and it 10 now
over 40 feet. When the contractors
get ready for sand they will be COM
PEELED to stop work until they can get
il, and it will probably take at least
two days after starting to dig 1t, be-
fore there will be supply enough
available to resume work on the
street.
As result of this predicament the
street car company is not in very
good humor. The street has been torn
up and their tracks loosened and par

TROUBLE WITH
THE SEWERAGE
The Pumping Station is Now
Being Used in Paducah.
II should Have Been Started Two
Days Ago-Cellars to be
Flooded.
AT SIXTH AND BROADWAY

Nothing has been done towards
starting the pumping station of the
sewerage system, although it should
have been started, according to sewer
experts. when the river reached forty
feet. When the sta9e reaches this
height, the water begins backing mp
into the pipes, and should be pumped

who is an expert on sewerage this
morning. 1T was designed by Il
man who thoroughly understood his
business and knew what he was doing.
il is foolish for any of these inexpe-

make it appear the pumping station is
useless, or IL impracticsble. II the
city officials would use it, as it is in

trouble from il. The station should
have been started Sunday, when the

The water is already backing from
the mains into some Of the cellars
and will continue to get worse az
long % the river rises.
"If the river gets high enough, II
would completely clog the system and
probably result in irreparable damage

thing is that il when the river is Al
