His Pistol Fell From His Pock-
ct ut Mayfield and Went Off.
BuI'et struck Him in the Left Ankle
and Ranged Upward In
His Leg.
THE WOUND Is NOT SERIOUS

Deputy U. S. Marshal George w
Saunders, of Mayfield, was accident,
ally shot this morning shortly before
Z o'clock at Mayfield while preparing
to take the early morning accommo-
dation train to Paducah.
Major Saunders was sitting in the
depot waiting room at Mayfield wait
ing for his train. The engine whis-
tied as ii approached the depot and
the officer started from his seat to
board the train. In some way his 32-
calibre pistol had worked up in his
hip pocket and as he reached a
standing posture the gun fell to the
floor and was discharged.
The ball struck Major Saunders in
the left leg just above the ankle and
ranged upward. AS soon as the sound
of the pistols discharge was heard.
friends rushed in to lend assistance,
and the injured officer was taken
home. where medical aid was sum-
moned. Physicians say the wound is
painful but not necessarily serious,
although the ball will have to be cut
out.
Major Saunders is one of the best
known and most efficient men in the
government service in the state and
his many friends here and elsewhere
will be grieved to learn of the acci-
dent which will probably disable him
for some little time.
Major Saunders has been a deputy
marshal for several years and has al
ways carried his pistols without even
the slightest accident until today. He
comes to Paducah several times
throughout the week, and is very
popular here.

FEDERATION OF LABOR
Is Investigating the Recent Election
of Officers Held in kentucky.

Louisville. KY, Jan. 13.-Edgar
Perkins, president of the Indiana
State Federation of Labor. who has
been in the city for several days TAX
ing evidence in the Kentucky State
Federation muddle, has gone to In
dianapolis. Mr.. Perkins was select
ed by Samuel Gompers, president of
the American Federation of Labor to
investigate the charges, preferred by
the Louisville delegates, who walked
out of the convention of the Ken
tucky State Federation of Labor at
Covington about a month ago.
Twenty-three delegates from Louis

charging that the president, James
d. Wood. had violated the constitu-
ton by allowing delegates from the
miners union to cast more votes
than they were entitled to by law.
The Louisville delegates charged
that five delegates from the United
Mine Workers of the Western dis
trict of Kentucky cast about 60
votes, when they were entitled to
only 20 delegate votes. Mr.. Perkins
will likely go to Central City in a
day or two where he will take the
evidence of the miners and Presi-
dent James ID. Wood. A decision in
the matter is expected by the latter
part of the month.
Should the contention of the Lou
isville delegates be sustained ghe
election of officers Of the Kentucky
State Federation of Labor would be
declared void and new election or
dered.

A Good Tramp Show.

There are few tramp shows on the
road which will bear creditable rep
etition, but The King of Tramps.
which comes to the Kentucky for
two performances next Saturday, Is
enjoying a popularity that reflects
credit upon the author OF the play
and the production. The comedy Is
classed among the best written and
best expressed on the American
stage. Ii is a bright, neat, melodi-
Gus attraction, free from all sugges-
tlveness and does not boast the usu-
al rum-soaked, husky-voiced, shamD-
ling hobo invariably seen with an at
traction of this title. Instead, the
leading character presented, is bright
sunny and interestingly amusing
and given with farceurs faithfulness
to the type. A large and capable
company of farceours, singers and
dancers surround the principals and
the performance is enlivened with
many up-to-date specialities. The
management carries a fine concert
band and orchestra, which will be
pleasing news to music lovers.

Travels On Special Train.

The Clansman company left Padu
cab for Evansville this morning
about o'clock running as speciai
to Princeton. 1t came here yester-
day from Little Rock, Ark, on a
special.
The company travels in a special
train most of the time. The special
train which took the company to
Princeton was composed OF one bag
gage car, one coach and one sleeper
and ran as the second section OF

"The Clansman."

Thomas Dixon's celebrated play
"The Clansman," was presented last
night for the first time in Kentucky
at The Kentucky. theatre, to an audi
ence that filled every seat. 1t drew
largely because of the notoriety il
has attained on account of the con-
ditions it deals with, but the audi
ence seemed well pleased, and there
isn't a particle of doubt that it is a
powerful play, and in the hands of a
capable company would be one of
the most stirring on the American
stage.
The company that appeared here
last night was totally inadequate in
many particulars. Franklin Ritchie,
as the Clansman, Charles Avery, as
the governor of South Carolina, Wn.
II. Tooker, as the mulatto lieutenant
governor, and Theodore Kerhwald,
as Nelse. the old-time darkey, are
excellent actors, and did good work
The others were mediocre to say the
best, and some we're totally unequal
to the possibility of their parts.
"The Clansman" is made up from
Mr.. Dixon's two novels, ''The Leop-
ards Spots" and ''The Clansman,
and the company here was about the
No. 3. The original is in New York
and there are others, and all are
playing to capacity business. The
conditions the play reflects doubt
less existed at some time in some
place, but they do not exist now. The
story is of reconstruction days,
which were evidently bad enough
from any standpoint to justify the
present generation in wanting to
know as little as possible about them
and feel as little of the old hos
tile spirit as possible. "The Clans
man." aside from its merits as a
work of art, is not calculated to ac-
complish much good in either the
north or the south, for it glowingly
portrays much that is long since
dead, and that both sides would fain
forget.

In so far as the intrinsic merit OF
the bookings have been for the frs,
half of the present theatrical season
in Paducah, up to date metropolitan
and star attractions have been few
in comparison with some former sea-
son, but this has been due, in large
measure, to the yellow fever scare
in the south during the autumn
months. From now on, local play
goers are assured a splendid line o.
attractions to round-out the remain
der of the season. Manager Roberts
has used every effort to secure the
best obtainable in the dramatic line
and the following attest to his sue
cess:
The Maid and tie Mummy. Miss
Mary Emerson. Rose Coghlan in The
Duke of Killiecrankie, The Wizard
of OF; Mildred Holland in The Lily
and the Prince, Robin Hood, Eva
Tanguay IN The Sambo Girl. Richard
Carle in The Mayor of Toxic, Adel-
aide Thurston, Chas. B. Hanford in
Ingomar, James O'Neill in Monte
Cristo, Viola Allen in The Toast OF
the Town, The Isle of Spice, Sousa's
Band. Manager Roberts has q num-
ber of big successes in view which
will likely be booked for the near
future.
