Later Report.

Definite japanese statements are ac-
cepted at Berlin as being accurate.
Theefore, it is assumed in profe sional
quarters that the japanese inflicted
greater damage than they themselves
sustained.
A disatch to the London Evening
News from Toxic says eight captains
of Russian warships were drowned dur
ing the battle.
Advices received from London and
and other leading continental financial
centers by the New York bankers were
all of the opinion that Japan's decisive
victory would hasten peace. Reports
that the government at Washington
had signifed its willingness to act as
mediator in the event of peace propo-
sails are current and added to the hope
full telling in financial circles that the
end of the war might be looked for.

NO REWARD.
Paducah Officers Wanted Nothing

NEBCE INDICTED
FOR WILFUL MURDER
Killed Jesse Ingram OverChurch
Social Admission.
Trial Set For the Ninth Day of the
Term Of Circuit Court by Judge
william Heed.
GRAND JURY STILL At WORK.

Rufe Niece, colored, was indicted
by the grand jury for murder. He Is
the man who killed Jesse ingram.
colored. out in the county few
weeks ago. claiming that Ingram at
tackled him with knife. The trouble
occurred over paying ten cents to go
to church social.
The defendant was called into
court this morning and the trial of
his case set for the ninth day of the
term.
The grand Jury returned the fol-
lowing other indictments today:
Wilson Dunlap and Henry Harmon.
chicken stealing. set for seventh day
of term.
Joe Cannon. malicious cutting. set
for sixth day of term
RUDE Caruthers, forgery, set for
seventh day of term.
The grand jury is still at work on
the Mrs. Brockwell murder case.
She will be indicted only on one
count. II is likely, or at least be tried
for killing only one of the children.
A number of witnesses have been
heard. but there is no hurry, and
the grand jury is taking its time.
The grand jury is at present hung
up, ii is understood, over the ques-
tion of whether or not to indict Geo.
Albritton. The sentiment at pres
ent Is not to indict him, and
1t is extremely doubtful whether
or not anyone besides the inhuman
mother herself will be indicted in
the case.
II is understood that the irregular
tiles in the sheriff's Office will not be
taken up until most of the Jail cases
are disposed of. The grand jury us
ually clears the slate of most Of these
before 1t takes up outside cases.
1t is stated authoritatively tina; no
evidence has been found ;gain st any
{ ne IN connection with the Brockwell
case except those already Ii entionei

A golden opportunity Is open in
this section to promoters and capital
lists who want TO build railroads and
such things. Livingston county. espe-
cially In the vicinity of Smithlani,
is only waiting to be thrown open TO
the world by a railway. The people
want IL. and are willing, no doubt, to
give right of way to those who build
il. IL anyone wants to build an inter-
urban line, from Paducah TO Smith
land seems TO be the place. The ter
ritory is untouched by a railroad and
the steamboats, do not enter the ter
ritory enough TO hurt. The distance
Is very short, comparatively, and the
people are interested In getting the
road. and would do all in their pow
er TO help Il along. A smithland-Pa-
dueah line seems TO offer greater pos
sibilities for both a successful con-
struction and subsequent profits, than
any that could be built In this yicin-
ity. The commercial club might con
slider a project of this kind and rem
der invaluable assistance.

FISCAL COURTS CAPERs.

The fiscal court of McCracken
county does not appear to have the
interest of the people very much at
heart. Only few days ago, at a spe-
cial meeting. 1t voted to allow one
county officer about, $4,000 that be-
longed to the taxpayers and which
the officer had not earned and to
which he was not entitled, and the
allowance was made solely to enable
another county officer to keep from
having to pay II to the taxpayers,
for whom 1t had been collected. The
whole scheme was so palpable that
at least three of those mixed up In it
were defeated at the primary few
days later. which ought 10 he les
son to others, and yet seems to have
escaped their notice.
Fiscal court has ordered the en-
rloyment of man-onc of its own
members-to draw pay from Nc
Cracken- county for acting as a sort
II go-between in paying hack to tax
rayers who have been skinned, what
ever amount these taxpayers are en-
titled to. II does seem that the tax
payers have been imposed on enough
already, as, after having paid over
$4,000 known Of more than they
should, they are now compelled
through an act of fiscal court to pay
a man to return the money to them.
The taxpayers who have overpaid
should be allowed if'they want their
money back, TO go to the sheriff, and
he will doubtless give II back. There
is no sense in employing some one
else to do It at an additional expense
to the people.

OLD LOVE REEVES ON SIGHT
Miss Daisy Waters Of Council Bluffs
Weds a Travelling Man.

Council Bluffs, Iowa. Romantic
ideas led Miss Daisy Walters,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
B. Walters of No. 500 East Pierce
street, into a clandestine marriage
three months ago, which has but
recently become known to her rel
atives. She married Bernard
Rahfeld of Omaha at Papillion,
Neb., April /.
Since the wedding Mrs. Rahfeld
has been living at home, while her
husband, who is a travelling sales
man, has been on the road.
Miss Walters formerly kept COM
pany with Rahfeld, but had not
done so for a year prior to the
wedding. One day she met him
again and the friendship was re-
newed. Rahfeld, acting on the
spur of the moment, proposed thai
they should get married without
letting any one know of it. Miss
Walters at first demurred, but
finally consented.
The pair obtained a carriage and
drove to Papillion, fifteen miles
away. with Lewis Bernard, a
friend. There they obtained a Ii
cense and were married by Judge
Wilson. They returned to Omaha
the same afternoon, and after part
ing with her husband the newly
welded wife came across the river
and returned to her home. Her
relatives supposed She had been
shopping in Omaha and asked no
questions.
The secret weighed upon the
young woman after the romance
wore of. She began to regret that
she had acted so hastily, but could
not muster up courage 10 tell her
parents and ash their sympathy
and forgiveness. Mr.. and Mrs.
Walters had been more or less OPP
posed to Rahfeld, though they say
they would have given their con-
sent had their daughter informed
them of her intention to marry
him. They supposed Miss Daisy's
favor was bestowed in another d.
rection.

The Way to Do Things.

If there is that in your nature
which demands the best and will
take nothing less, and you do not
demoralize this standard by the
habit of deterioration in everything
you do, you will achieve distinc-
ton in some line if you have the
persistence and determination to
follow your ideal.
But if you are satisfied with the
cheap and shoddy, the botched and
slovenly, if you are not particular
about quality in yotfr work. or in
your environment, or IL your per
soual habits, then you must expect
10 take second place, to fall back
into the rear of the procession.
People who have accomplished
work worth while have had a very
high sense Of the way to do things.
They have not been content with
mediocrity. They have not con-
fined themselves TO the beaten
tracks: they have never been salts
fed to 60 things just as others dc

They always pushed things that
