The Gertrude Ewing Co. pleased
an appreciatlve audience at The Ken

Love" one of the best popular priced
performances ever seen in Paducah.
Miss Ewing won many more admir-

company are also good, and the spe-
cialties contribute much to the even
ing's enjoyment. A matinee Is be-
ing given this afternoon and tonight
"Cinders," will be presented for the
first time In Paducah. Miss Hamil-
ton, in her paper tearing features,
wins great applause, and is an artist.

MAY SURRENDER.
Walter McClain May BE Waiting for
Excitement TO Subsidc.

Walter McClain. the young man
who shot and killed his brother, Ber-
thold McClain, and John Canter, at
Lynnville, Graves county, Saturday
night, is still at large and is thought
to be in Tennessee or some state
south of Tennessee.
The only trace of the fugitive so
far secured was when he visited his
sister at Dresden, Tenn, soon after
the killing. He remained in Lynn
Vile Sunday morning but went to
Dresden that night, but is not in the
latter city now.
II is said that he would probably
have come clear of murder had he
not run away because he might have
pleaded accident in the case of his
brother and the defense of his
brothers life in the Canter killing.
IL is believed that when the excite
ment dies out in the neighborhood
he will return, surrender and stand
trial.

Carts are manufactured for the

lighter than the buggies now used,
