Healing Properties Found in Water
From Springs in and About Paducah

said to produce unlimited volumes of
water that possesses medicinal prop
critics of value.
The latest mineral water, however.
TO attract attention in the city was
discovered by an old farmer named
Westbrook, who resides near the old
Starr farm only mile OF two from
the corporate limits, out the Pool
road. His daughter had been Ill and
drank the water from a well which
Is 100 feet deep. and, although her
malady had been pronounced incura-
BILE, she improved and is now well
This attracted Westbrook's atten-
ton TO the water, which has a flavor
something similar TO EPSON Salts.
An analysis was made of 1t by 10
cal chemist, who says IT is as good as
the Echo Springs water, and is prac-
tcally the same as found at some of
the neighboring summer resorts
Westbrook now hauls the water to

Mayor Powell, OF Henderson Issues
Labor Day Proclamation

Here is what Mayor Powell, Hen
derson's literary genius. hands out
in the way of Labor day proslama-
ton:
All hail Sovereign Queen of La
Dor Day. Thy mesmeric mandate, our
delight is to obey Therefore, with
sweet acclaim. do proclaim Mon
day, September 4, 1905, a day of rest
and recreation in our Domain
To all good people a welcome is
rendered, sincere as the blush of a
modest maid, and pure as the smile
of beautiful babe. Let freedom
banner wave to the music of Yankee
Doodle and Dixie. Unchecked be the
poetry of motion to those who enjoy
such delightful whirligigs Hear
booming bomb shells of burning elo-
quence bursting on the breeze. See
Senior Shanghigh, the sword swal-
lower. In the dense foliage of the
wild tangled wood find the famous
fleet-footed fat feminine. Behold the
prize baby tug at a pretty Mammy's

INVOKING THE POWERS.

One of the Goebel papers, the Ow-
ensboro Messenger, has the nerve to
say of the Powers case:
let there be no relaxation in the
efforts of the commonwealth to mete
out to him the punishment which he
so richly deserves. But a small por-
tion of the 100000 reward fund
was ever spent. Much more has been
spent for Powers alone than has been
paid out of that fund upon his trials
and all the others. Let the reward
commissioners not be .sparing now in
expenditures to further prosecute
this case. Let the commonwealth ex-
ert its full power. Let the best of
legal talent be engaged to represent
the state before the supreme court
and before any other court where it
may be taken. Let the arm of the
law be strengthened at every point. I"
All sensible members of the clique
that has prosecuted Powers see that
they have gone too far already. with
out acting on the Messengers advice
to now call into service that $780,
600 reward fund.
Powers and his friends are doubt
less ready to admit that the crowd
has accomplished a great deal by its
threats, Doodle and intimidation,
without resorting to the reward fund,
but it is likely that the methods that
have been employed against Caleb
Powers in the past, will never be en-
ployed against him again, reward
fund or no reward fund.
These methods, for five years, were
in way successful but not in the
way desired and anticipated by the
democrats, and will ultimately fail
entirely. Not only that, but they
will bring the democratic party in
Kentucky into greater disrepute than
it now finds itself over the Powers
case.

clothes, and pull on ugly Daddy
nose. Let whole carloads of innocent
frolic and fun. be dealt out to every
body. Not Peruna or Rocky Mountain
Tea, nor all the Celery Compounds
and Swift's Specifics, mingled with a
sea of soul-stirring and stomach
soothing syrups can bring unto you
such a thrill of joy as the rejuvenat-
ing recollection of their colossal eel
ebration. Glory Hallelujah, rush to
Henderson and get a glimps of Hea-
ven. Labor laughs loudest in a land
of liberty. Those who toll best know
how sweet it Is to rest When the
starry splendor of the night grows
dim, and the glorious sun of another
day shall summon you to work, and
duty, may you 20 forth refreshed,
and live a Thousand years of happi-
ness and success.
In testimony of these pOetical fic-
tons and patriotic truths, ! do here
unto subscribe my official signature
this 18th of July 1905.

Mayor of the city of Henderson, KY.

Paducah may some day become a
resort for health seekers, because OF
the healing waters found within the
county's confines. There is water to

flesh Is heir,-if the testimony of
those who claim to have been cured

For many years the water from

people from all parts of the city, and
the crowds flocked there in such
numbers that finally the factory had

BOARD OF ALDERMEN
HELD RUSH SESSION

The aldermanic board met in reg
ular session last night and transacted
business with much dispatch. adj
journing at $3.50 O'Clock, one of the
quickest regular meetings on rec
ord
Alderman Bell was the only mem
Der absent, and after adjournment
the mayor and board in a body visit
ed the new city hospital and attended
the reception.
One matter brought up under the
head of new business" was resolu-
ton brought in by Alderman Farley
to abate the street car nuisance as
he called 1t, and to amend the fran
chise ordinance so that It would re-
quire the cars to be run on regular
schedule time. Alderman Farley
loes not think the cars have been run
ming on schedule time, and wants
some set rule so that they can be
depended Oh. He also thinks that the
unnecessary blowing of whistles by
conductors and the unnecessary ring
ing of gongs should be stopped. The
matter was referred to the ordinance
committee to report at the next meet
ing.
Several communications from prop
erty owners along the lines of street
improvements, saying they did not
intend TO pay for storm water sewers,
were received and filed.
The mayors action in signing con-
tracts for the Improvement of Ken
lucky avenue and Jefferson street
was ratified.
The resignation of Sanitary In
spector Simmons was received and
the appointment of Mir Geo. Webb TO
succeed him ratified.
The matter of paying off a note
for s1,700, held by Messrs. e. c. and
r. G. Terrell was referred to the
finance committee.
Mayor Yeiser reported the sale of
a telephone franchise to Mr.. Henry
Hughes for $40 and recommended
that the sale be not ratified, which
was concurred in. The city claims
it intended the franchise was for the
East Tennessee company, which op-
crates under grant of the legisla-
ture that is perpetual and does not
necessitate a franchise. but the East
Tennessee Telephone company did
not bid on IL. The company agreed
voluntarily sometime ago to buy a
franchise from the city, and every
year thus pay "a franchise tax, but
when the franchise ordinance came
up in the boards the members Insist
ed on fixing the rates in the fran
chise at about half what the company
is now getting, and the franchise in
addition stipulates that the rates
could not be increased during the
twenty years of the franchise, so the
East Tennessee company failed to
bid. The matter of compelling the
