NOTHING FURTHER
WILL NOW Be DONE
Say Some of the Paducah Doc
tors.
They Have Suggested the Best
Plans They Could Devise for
the New Hospital.
WOULD SAVE THE CITY MONEY

Last night at the board of alder
men meeting the report on the hos
p.tal committee outlining plans for
the management of the the new city
hospital was referred to the com
mittee for revision, the board desir-
ing that the matter of matron, in
torne and medical superintendent be
settled once and for all.
The report was hastily made. be-
cause the committee met late In the
afternoon, and no doctors being
present, the members had TO do the
best they could, Chairman Durrett
stated. The plans were changed a
l.ttle. the Office of medical superin-
tondent being created instead of that
OF inferno. DIR. Boyd explained that
the reason the doctors suggested the
head nurse be made superintendent
and an inferno employed, was be-
cause an inferno would be paid no
more than his board and lodgings
and the only salarled officer would
he the superintendent or head nurse,
I'VE will do nothing more than we
have already done in presenting our
plans" we'll known doctor stated
this morning, I'VE feel more compe-
tent to furnish ideas for managing
the hospital and have outlined sVg-
gestions which will save the city
money If adopted, and give the best
service possible. We don't intend TO
go into the committee room and
urge anything further, because our
petition speaks for itself and the
committeeman should see IL is the
most practicable and economical
plan TO pursue, II a medical superin-
tendent is selected he will have to be
paid salary and in addition the
city will have TO employe a matron.
We considered everything and our
plans are the best that could be de
yised."

she wouldn't take no for an answer and

CHRISTMAS IN ENGLAND.
Scattered Families United on This Da,
and Tender Memories Are Re-
vived Between Friends. ~

Throughout Great Britain Christmas
Is the great week of the year. It is the
one week when scattered families are re-
united, when tender memories and old
associations are revived, when friend
greets friend with CHEEKY e:.pansiveness
in striking contrast with the character
istic reserve Of the English nature.
Business is practically suspended in
London for the five days succeeding
Christmas eve, says j.. A. Stewart. in
Leslie's Weekly. There is nothing left
of the obsolete orgies which so offended
the Puritan element in the times of
Cromwell. It would be an unimaginable
English monarch who would forbid any
observation of the 25th of December.
The example is set by the royal family
OF the ideal way in which to spend the
happy, marry Christmas-tide which
the English people cherish. It IS the
custom Of King Edward VII. and Queen
Alexandra to pass the holiday quietly
at Sandringham. and there to give their
personal supervision to the distribution
of gifts.

Mr.. Hu1ing's first wife died about ten
years ago and shortly afterward his one
child, a son. Frank, passed away. His
only relatives are three or four nieces
and nephews, and it was among them, It
was confidently felt, that his wealth
would be divided. as there has been a
sort Of tradition in the Huling family
not to devote any large sums to public
benefactions. Under the Vermont laws
the surviving member of a married
couple receives from the estate $4,000
and one-half the remainder absolutely.
This means. of course, $4,000 more than
one-half. Consequently Columbus HUI
ing's nephews and nieces will receive
less than one-half what they would il

which told the world that the commu-
nifty placed no restrictions on the
marital union of the man and woman.
Then the wedding day was set. Great
secrecy was observed; the town Off
cial who issued the document was
sworn to silence, and the minister was
urged to divulge to no one that the
ceremony was to take place. The
day came, and then the old gentle
mans manner and air of Importance,
coupled with. his announced intention
of clothing himself in his best attire.
as the afternoon wore on, aroused the
deepest suspicious of his housekeeper-
the aged widowed sister-in-law. He
skillfully evaded her sharp questioning,
but she was not satisfied with his re-
plies. and posthaste sent message for
one of the interested relatives. An
examination Of the town clerks records
disclosed the whole situation; the truth
was laid bare. Apparently the old man
and his fiancee had outwitted the en-
tire array OF relatives the license was
issued, the minister engaged, and the
groom-elect only awaited the coming Of
the would-be bride, for the final part

at this point one of the laws of the
state of Vermont came to theil
aid. It is that on complaint {
warrant charging intoxication ma.
issue, and police officer is empowered
to serve this at any time or place within
| the Jurisdiction where he has authority.
Relatives Get Out Warrant.
Without delay the opposing relative
! hurried to the Office of magistrate
and there made oath that on such and
such date Columbus Huling, of North
Bennington, had been intoxicated on
the streets of Bennington. A warrant
was made out and given to police
officer, who went in the relatives car
riage to the octogenarian's residence.
While intoxicaticn is misdemeanor.
and an officer can-ot forcibly enter a
mans house with warrant for such
minor crime, the Vermont law makes
an exception in regard to drunkenness,
and the Bennington policeman went di-
rectly into Mr.. Huling's dwelling and
asserted his authority.
Entreaty was of no avail, expostula-
tion was useless. The police officer in
sisted that Columbus Huling should ac-
company him, and he did, pathetically
glancing back at the little house where
he had anticipated so much happiness
as he climbed into the carriage before
the door. In imagination one could
almost observe Cupid waving him a
fearful farewell. Into Bennington rode
the sad but wrathful prisoner and his
captor and disembarked at the Put
nam house, where In comfortable con-
finement, the disheartened groom
elect was kept over night.
Bride Finds Bridegroom Missing.
An hour after his departure the ex-
pectant young woman who was to be-
come Mrs. .Huling, clad In garments OF
snowy white and accompanied by her
sister and a girl friend, climbed the hill
on which. the Huling dwelling is located.
The trio was the observed of all OBJ
servers, and seemed not unwilling to
let the populace know that a most mo-
mentous event was to occur. At the
house the party was ushered into the
parlor, and in a few minutes was Joined

Marks of a Grilse.

Some of Recreation's sporting contem
poraries have published letters of corr
respondents who desire to know the
marks by which a grilse may be dis
tinguished from salmon. To an old
fisherman the problem presents no diff
fculty. The grilse has a deeply cleft
tail, while that of the salmon, even
when the fish is small, is more nearly
square. In the case of an aged fish, the
tail is actually convex. Again, the
scales of the grilse are. detached with
great facility; you cannot handle q
grilse without the scales becoming de-
tached in quantities, while with an
adult salmon the scales are compara-
lively firmly attached. Then there is
an indescribable something about the
shape of the grilse that distinguishes
it at once to an experienced eye. It is
slighter, with a smaller, sharper head.
The body is less flexible. Size is NO
guide to the grilse, as on some rivers
grilse are fully as heavy as the small
salmon, though this is contrary to the
general rule in Canadian streams,-J.
Perley, in Recreation.
