Over Three Inches of Rain Fell
Here Yesterday.
Streets Overlooked, Bridges Washed
Away and Much Damage
Wrought.
REPORTS ARE NOT ALL IN YET

If Old Father Noah had been in
Paducah late yesterday afternoon
and last night it probably would
have reminded him of old times. This
section was visited by a regular in
undation, and by 6 p. m. hundreds of
localities were completely overfiowed,
the streets cars could hardly run, and
every hack in the city had more
than 1t could attend to.
The damage to the city's streets,
in bridges fioated away and sewers
washed apart, is several hundred dol
lars.
This morning when the water had
subsidized scores of planks from cross
ings could be found in the middle of
street, here they. had fioated last
night and remained after the water
fell. Sand and dirt are in places
heaped half a foot high along and in
the gutter. and it will take the chain
gang weeks to clean out all the gut
ters.

HIS NEMESIS.

Something else has happened in
Kentucky where SO many strange
things happen, says the Evansville
Journal-News.
In the election in 1904 for judges
of the appeals court, James e. Can
trill was elected to that bench by the
democrats of that state for this part
he played in the trial of Caleb Pow
ers.
Cantrill has never appeared in that
court to pass upon single case, be-
ing incapacitated by illness and de-
crspit mind
Now the sensible press of the
state is calling upon him to resign
and quit drawing salary from the
state treasury for which he is giving
no return.
At this distance it looks like Can
trill is getting fitting punishment in
this world for the ignobla part he
took in one of the most infamous
miscarriages OF justice that the an
nails of American courts record. II
Is not strange then that Cantrill has
lost his health and has become men
tally weak over the grsat strain ne
has undereon for the sake OF party
and ambition He was spewed out
by the general assembly of the state
when a candidate for the United
States senate and put on the state
ticket as sop. Even the Kentucky
democrats were ashamed to send
such a piece of humanity to the CAPT
tai of the nation,

NEAT WEEK
Mayor Yciscr Will Call the General
Council to Meet.

Mayor d. A. Yeiser will call a
meeting of the general council for
next Tuesday or Wednesday night to
consider what amendments to the
second class charter are desired by
Paducah. Mayors of other second
class cities, Lexington, Covington
and Newport. desire to hold meet
ing of representatives of second class
cities before the legislature meets in
January. to come to some sort of
agreement relative TO these amend
ments and there is little chance of
any amendments being. made to the
charter that are not desired by the
other three second class cities.
When the general council meets
next week, II will probably decide on
a representative to the conference,
and the time will be agreed on la
ter.
Mayor Yeiser has not decided when
he will call the general council TO
meet and elect those city officers who
are to be chosen in December.

The Rain in the County.

Reports received from the county
are that the rain was as heavy in the
county as it was in Paducah. Farm
ers stated this morning that Massac
creek was raging and out of its
banks. 1t had caused great deal of
Interference in travel. Other small
ravines and ponds are flooded.
In many places fences were fioated
away and one man said he met some
body's fence in the road this morn
ing while coming to the city but did
not know to whom it belonged. Many
small bridges were washed away.
Some OF the boys who carry news
papers could not get over their routes
last evening as in many places the
water was so deep they could not get
TO house without danger Of drown
ing.

The newspapers should be daily
lesson to people 10 be more careful.
They are filed with reports of accI-

the results of carelessness thought
