Capt. Goodwin's death came as "A

friends. as they did not know that his
condition was serious. His wife and
unmarried daughter. Miss Leila

MORE STUPID DELAY.

The city's idea about an electri-
cal Inspector is harmless but foolish.
The insurance trust has laid down
certain written rules for wiring.
These rules are strict, and every once
and a while the trust sends an ex-
pert around to inspect the wiring
and ascertain II II has been done in
accordance with the rules.
II has been charged that the in
spectors do not always agree among
themselves. aud one will accept one
class of wiring that another comes
along and rejects The companies de
ny this, and say that no instance can
be cited In Paducah of where wiring
accepted by the first Inspector was
rejected by the second.
But that is immaterial. II Paducah
had wire inspector. he could obtain
a copy of the rules regarding wiring
from any agent, and learn them.
Every new building erected he could
see was wired according to those
rules II II was there would be no
cause for complaint. II IL were not,
the trust would likely in time send
man around and he would find ii
out.
II is very stupid, therefore, to fur

inspector.

inspector should coAe here, howey-

Does the council think the insur-
anee companies are going 10 pledge
themselves to accept the work of a
