PAUL JONES' GRAVE
IT ~ LOCATED IN A PARKWAY
PLACE.
Speech Made at Paris Yesterday by
United states ambassador.

Paris. Feb. 23.-The feature of
washington's birthday banquet of the
America club was speech by Am
bassador Porter detailing the search
he has prosecuted the last FIVE years
for the grave of the founder of the
American navy, John Paul Jones.
The ambassador related a remark
able search made to determine the
authentic grave of Jones. After long
search Il was finally made certain
that the interment was in the now
abandoned Saint Louis cemetery. the
ground of which had been covered
with buildings. A shaft was sunk
seven feet and the bodies were found
undisturbed. After difficult negotia-
tions lasting over year the propri-
etors and tenants gave options for
the necessary excavations, whereup-
on estimates for the future cost of
the investigation. amounting to $685.
600, were recommended to congress
by President Roosevelt. II the APP
preparation is refused Ambassador
Porter explained that the options
will lapse and it will be difficult to
renew them.
In conclusion the ambassador said:
while other nations are gather
ing the ashes of their heroes in their
pantheons, their Valhallas and their
Westminster Abbeys. all that is NOR
tai of this marvellous organizer of
American victories upon the sea lies
like an outcast in a squalid section
of a distant city, in a neglected grave
where it was placed by the hand of
charity to keep it from the potters
field. What was once consecrated
ground is desecrated by vegetable
gardens, a deposit for night soil and
even burial of dogs. 1t is fitting that
an effort be made to give him
an appropriate sepulchre at last in
the land of liberty which his efforts
helped make free"

Mundy Company's Representa-
tive Meet the Members.
The Contract WI Not lie Let UntiI
Other Compafjcs Are Heard
From.
THE DATE NOT YET SETTLED

The Carnival Association met last
night at Hotel Lagomarsino and
heard the proposition from Mr.. IRA
Trouble. representing the Munds
Carnival Co., but did not let the con
tract. as it desires to hear from 9th
ers.
Mr.. Trouble arrived yesterday af-
ternoon and submitted his PROPOSE
ton in writing. The association did
not like some provisions in the prop
osition and will waieuntil other COM
panies are heard from before clos
ing
The Parker Co. will send Mr.. Ed
wards here but he has not yet ar
lived The association also expects
some one fro mthe Famous Co, and
will carefully consider all PROPOSE
lions. The Mundy company seems to
be the most favored, however. 1t
carries all new attractions, four be-
ing brought here from the old coun-
try, and carries its own electric light
plant and enclosure.
One other matter the association
il Weighing Is relative to the dates.
II the Mundy Co. gets the contract
the Paducah carnival will have to
wait on the decision of Chattanooga
before the week can be set II Chat
tanooga accepts the second week In
May, Paducah will have to take the
third and if Chattanooga takes the
third week, Paducah will get the
second. The local association prefers
the first week in May but must take
what it can get.
Secretary Rodney Davis stated this
morning that he had sent out tele-
grams and expects answers daily. lie
is looking into the different compa-
mics and examining everything mi
nutely so the local association will
know exactly what it is getting.
Chattanooga will decide Sunday
what date she wants and this will be
a factor in deciding If the Mundy Co
will be successful here.
1t is hoped to have the contract de-
clded on by Saturday, and the Gas.
kill-Ferari company, which wrote to
day. was so informed. and is expect

WHY NOT HERE?

I'm the columns of yesterdays pa
pers there was an item carried by
the Associated Press, telling of the
arrest of fifty men in Chicago for
splitting on the sidewalks" says the
Lexington Herald. This item was
considered of sufficient Importance
by the greatest news gathering or
ganization of the world to send all
over the world, and we are confident
that no item in the paper was read
with more pleasure by thousands and
tens of thousands of citizens of
America than it was. If it means, as
we believe it does, the beginning of
similar action in every city in the
country, it will make a change that
will decrease annoyance, irritation,
disgust and will do much to prevent
the spread of disease and death.
why can not Lexington be the
next city to follow the lead of Chi
cago, and let the Associated Press
carry the news that. in Lexington,
every man who so far forgets him
self, who is so ignorant of the de-
cencies of life as to spit on the side
walk. is arrested and fined or put in
the lookup. II will do more TO at
tract favorable notice to Lexington
than any one thing that can be
done"
In this connection IL might also be
asked, Why not in Paducah? Why
should street cars, halls and build
ings, pavements, and other public
places be allowed TO remain so fl
thy? How long will II be until the
people realize the danger of tolerat-
ing such unsanitary conditions2 How
long will ii take for some of the peo-
pie Of Paducah to be convinced that
connection with the sanitary sewer
age, clean yard and home, clean
street cars and public buildings and
such things, may save them or some
one they care for, much illness-pos-
sibly save life itself?

NEWS or LOCAL INTEREST.

The matter of settling plans for
the management and furnishing of
Riverside hospital will probably be
settled tonight in the board of alder
men. but the council will have to act
on the recommendation before they
become law.
The doctors presented outlined
plans for governing the hospital, the
principal item being the 'ejard of
managers. The doctors suggested
that three doctors and two council
men be appointed on the board, but
now are willing to amend It by max
ing II three couucilmen and two doc

desire. The committee has been In
structed to report tonight and will do
so.

cided, but II the Recommendation

Local physicians have been working
hard to get the hospital in service
and are urging that all preliminary
work be finished as soon as possible.
In regard to furnishing the hospit-
al. one doctor stated that he hoped
the city would not put in cheap fur
niishings which would have TO be taxi
en- out in few years. The most eco
nomical plan which has been proven
in every instance is to put in the best
equipment and furnishings at the
start and this is what the doctors
will recommend.
This committee had nothing to do
with the managing of the hospital,
but is simply the one appointed some

CITY PHYSICIAN.
Only Two Candidates Have Thus Far
Announced.

So far there are but two candi-
dates mentioned for city physician,
Drs. Carl NJ. Sears and Johnston
Bass.
There is some question as to
whether the ordinance to be brought
IL prescribing the duties of the city
physician will be affected by the de-
clsion regarding the management Of
the new city city hospital. which is
probably holding off some prospec-
tive candidates. If the city physician
is made superintendent of the hos

creased and the Office made more de-

DEMAND FOR COACH HORSES.
Government Purchases Fine Breed
ing Stock for Colorado Station.

To help supply the demand for prime
coach horses, Assistant Secretary OF
Agriculture Hayes has purchased in
Chicago for the Horse Breeding Expert
ment Station at Greeley. COL, the
famous stallion Thunder Cloud, IL
mares and a number of fine range
horses. The Greeley institution is
under the direction of the Agricultural
Department at Washington aud the
Government recently appropriated s50..
900 for the purpose of experimenting in
breeding an ideal type of al American
coach horse.
This new move upon the part of the
Government is said to be likely to lead
to requests from other live stock inter-
ests to branch out further aud establish
farms for breeding other types of
horses, as well as for breeding different
types of cattle. hogs and sheep.
With the rapid development of the
country in wealth, the demand for
prime coach horses has become greatly
increased aud there is also a large de-
mand for such horses to export.

Agricultural Development in Nevada
The agricultural development OF Ne
vada is but beginning. Her grains and
apples long ago took first prizes at great
expositions, and her potatoes and butter
have never failed to bring prices in ad-
of the market rate in San Fran
cisco and other Coast cities. Yet fruit
culture with one or two exceptions is
not attempted. To be sure. there are
hundreds of small apple, pear and plum
orchards, but they care for themselves.
and neglected as they are, bring forth
fruits of excellent soundness, color and
flavor. The area devoted to potatoes,
which is in the Reno valley and the val
ley above Dayton on the Carson River
often give returns of $3.50 an acre, is
comparatively insignificant. The sugar
beet, which is considered an ideal crop
under irrigation, is not grown, although
test crops show the Nevada valleys to
be unusually well adapted to its Gull
ture. There are only a few creameries
in operation, bat their product is OF
