NO MEETING HELD
Creditors Expect Session On
Friday Morning.
President of Dcfunct Saddlery Com
pany Left City sunday for
Memphis.
WANT SCHEDULE.

The creditors and trustee OF the
=. Rehkopf Saddlery company expect
to meet Friday morning to have the
schedule Of assets and liabilities
filed. This will be done provided
Mr.. Il. Rehkopf returns to the city.
Sunday Mr.. Rehkopf left the city
for Memphis and has not been heard
from since. The law says that no
dividend to creditors can be issued
until schedule of assets and liabili-
ties Is filed. 1t is provided that in
case the bankrupt does not file 1t
himself. the court or the trustee may
order one gotten up. 1t is much pre-
ferable, however to have the bankrupt
himself do this as he is familiar with
the property and liabilities. For the
trustee to attempt to do so, would
mean that he must hunt mp every as
set and every liability.
A meeting was to have been held
this morning, but his absence from
the city made a meeting useless At
present, something over 500. 900
claims have been admitted against
the estate. sdf0t- .riY fsH boo

it's competitors a good way in the
thoroughness and the promptn'ess of

Republican nominees who were de-
feated in yesterdays municipal cleo
ton have no excuse for any feeling
other than that of pride in the show
ing they made. In the face of the
600 Democratic majority. with a
Democratic primary to bring out the
party vote and line up the voters, and
all the election machinery in the
hands of the Democrats, they cut the
majority down to approximately 200,
while Judge Emmett w. Bagby re-
ceived the attention due the head of
the ticket, and led all he rest. The
city can be congratulated that, since
the Republican candidates are de-
feated, the Democratic ticket is made
up of material that promises coll
tinuancs of the progressive policy of
the present general council. No
council ever before in the history OF
Paducall made as clean and business
like a record in IL months as this
one, and the new council has the best
wishes of The Sun for an illustrious
career In the good work so ably
started by the old board.

The Rigors OF Cold Weather.

Probably at no time of the year
does the physical condition of the
body demand more attention than
just at this ceason, the beginning Of
cold weather.
Let the system be run down, or the
blood impoverished to any extent and
the cold weather goes hard with you
Naturally the thing to do Is to
get the circulation In good order, and
the whole system toned up to stand
the rigors of winter.
Some physicians prescribe the dali
ly cold bath, others seek recourse in
blood tonics and other stimulants,
but, probably the most rational treat
ment of all is the Osteopathic, as
Osteopathy more quickly. and more
effectively rights the blood flow and
restores normal conditions than any
other known treatment.
Osteopathy Is only natural
treatment, method of bloodless sur
gical manipulations to remove any
distractions interfering with the pro-
per transference of nerve force, or
natural blood flow, or the other flu
Ids, to the organ or part involved.
I should like to have you call and
let me tell of some Paducah people
whom you know we'll that Osteopa-
thy has done much for, and also to
tell you what 1t will do In your par
tlcular case.
