Booster for Speculation.

Reserving, as he claims in every inter-
view, the real kernel of his plan, 'because
the time is not yet ripe" still at every
stopping place he advises people to sell
stocks and bonds" If someone conceived
the notion that the American people out
in the country districts and in the smaller
towns have not been sufficiently familiar
with stocks and bonds to deal in them
freely, Thomas W. Lawson would be, and
is the best possible advance agent to start
speculative minds in that channel. After
studying him for the time he is in sight
one gets the impression that he is literary

Intentionally, for more general stock spec
ulation.
Then. again, II he has not some audac-
ious design in the field of national politics,
he may yet advertise himself into the
gubernatorial chair Of Massachusetts TO
succeed that different kind of advertiser,
w. L. Douglas. At any rate, he pays his
own expenses on his trip through the west
and does not accept any remuneration from
anybody. This may be the purest kind of
educational philanthropy, for he dwells on
the declaration that he was out In the west

some far-underlyiLg object that not even
the best guesser has yet fathomed.

\ New Theory Advanced by Phila-

Philadelphia, Pa, April 17.-An
entirely new theory OF the origin OF
sun spots, and one which is likely
to cause considerable agitation In the
scientific world was announced BY
Prof. Montroe Benjamin Snyder of
this city at a meeting of the Ameri-
can philosophical society. According
to his announcement before the soci-

LET THE IMPROVEMENT WORK
GO ON.

The action of the council last night
in holding up all the street Improve
ment work in Paducah because a
controversy has arisen between the
city and street car company, is not
only an absurd proceeding for men
who profess to have common sense,
but is an outrage on the public and
taxpayers as well. 1t has been a
year or more since the city sold its
Improvement bonds, and 1t has spent
very little of the money, yet the In
terest is constantly going on. Every
day the city keeps this money with
out using ii, il does so at great cost
to the taxpayers. because the interest
is being paid with little return TO the
people.
Now the council, in spirit OF
pique. says to the taxpayers that II
will stop every lick of work and let
the money lay idle while the summer
is slipping by and the taxpayers are
paying interest on nearly 100000,
and longing for better streets.
There was no excuse for all this.
There was no excuse for stopping
work on South Third street, or OF
thinking of stopping 1t, but II VIII
now have to be stopped, and all be-
cause of the caliber of craftsmanship
displayed by the council on all oc-
casions. There was no necessity Tor
a controversy In the first place. Here
is the franchise ordinance. and what
IL SAYS about reconstructing streets;
SHOULD the City of Paducah, al
any time before the expiration on TINS
franchise, rebuild or reconstruct any
street occupied by the purchaser, It's
successors or assigns, then said pur-
chaser, its successors or assigns shan
not be required to stand any OF the
expense Of such rebuilding or recon
struction, but after the same may De
so built or reconstructed, said owner
shall keep the spaces aforesaid In
good repair, with the same charao-
ter of material with which said street
may be reconstructed. but Il Is I'M
derstood that the city shall not be la
BILE for the expense of taking up or
relaying the rails and ties to con
form 10 the grade of any street which
may be reconstructed. over when
this franchise may extend"
Now this franchise appears 10 De
plain. Ii says that as result OF the
Reconstruction of street the car
company "shall not be required 10
stand any OF the expense OF such re-
building or reconstruction"
This couldn't be made any palmer
II IL is right that the street car COM
pany pay anything more than the
above requirement. then II should
have been embodied In the franchise,
This franchise was made and adopted
by the council. and the council rep

of the council didn't know what they

be made TO protect the interests OF

were being made, Il is their own

THE PASSOVER
HEBREW FESTIVAL LASTING
SEVERAL DAYS BEGINS
TOMORROW.
Commentaries the Exodus OF the
Children OF Israel From
Egypt.

Tomorrow will be the first day of
the ancient Hebrew Pesach, or Feast
of the Passover, which lasts until
Thursday, the twenty-seventh day of
the month, when final services will
be held in the temples everywhere.
The feast is associated with the ex-
odus of the people of Israel from
Egypt. when blood was sprinkled up
ON the lintels and door posts of the
houses, and is commemorative of the
passing over of the destroying angel,
when all the first born of Egypt were
slain.
The feast will be celebrated by
sevices in the temples, and more es-
pecially in the homes, and by the
eating of unleavened bread. Wednes-
day evening services will be held in
the temples. and during the week
services will be held in the homes,
for the festival is mainly home cell
ebration.
Thursday of the week following is
the last day of the feast, and serv-
ices will be held in the temples in
the morning at IL o'clock. This is
the first of three chief festivals pre-
scribed by the Pentateuchal Codes.
and perhaps the most generally cele-
GRATED. In every orthodox Jewish
home, unleavened bread will be
eaten during the week.
Rev. NJ. Lovitch. of II. U. c.. Gin
cinnati. will arrive this evening to
conduct services at Temple Israel
