merly of Paducah. died somewhere
in Oklahoma, where he went when
he left Paducah two or three years
ago, but the report cannot be con-
firmed Some man from the west
was the first to bring the informa
tipn. and he has left the city. The
report has spread among the doc
tors many friends. and when a Sun
reporter attempted to trace it to its
source, found that 1t originated from

Architects Say Big Rush is in
Prospect.
Reported "A Number of Local Unions
Will Ask For More Conccs-
sions This Year.
THE NATTER STILL IN DOUBT.

There Is more substantial building
construction under consideration and
in contemplation for this spring than
ever before in the history of the city.
and this year promises to be ban
ner year in all lines.
All of the architects report big
supply of work on hand, more than
ever before. and the contractors are
now bidding on great number of
plans. Among the buildings con-
templated are a number of handsome
residences, Office and store buildings
and number of flats and apart
ment houses.
Construction work costs about
33 1-S per cent more than 1t did a
few years ago." said an architect to-
day." and this may cut quite a fig
ure in the proposed buildings. Then,
too, there is some concern about what
the labor unions will do this year.
Most contracts with the unions ex-
pire April list and it is reported there
will be demands from some of them
for increased wages, and this will
have its bearing on any new work"
E. ID. Hannah, the plumber, has
taken time by the forelock and al
ready reached an agreement with his
men for the new year. The plumb
ers agreement with their men ex-
pires April LIST, and the men asked
for an increase from the present
scale, $3.50 day for eight hour
day, to 81 for the same hour day, and
the agreement has been signed. The
plumbers, however. have agreed not
to affiliate with any other local I'M
ions and this means the plumbers
can work in event OF any strikes by
any of the other unions

for rs Lights.
The City Will Furnish the Remain

What's What.
THE PRICE is SATISFACTORY

The aldermanic light committee
will probably bring In report on
the street car company's proposition
for lighting the streets at the alder
men meeting tonight.
The company has made another
proposition to the committee by
which II proposes to furnish 75 lights
to the city at a satisfactory price,
the city to supply the balance II
needs.
The council boards, Il is said, are
in favor of the proposition. as In this
way they will have an opportunity
TO compare the two seryices.--the
city's and the street car company's
after years trial.
A majority of the two boards wac
opposed to the proposition of the
Sompany's to take over the city plant
for ten years and furnish all the
lights. Notwithstanding the fact that
the proposition meant a big saving
to the city,--about $1,000 a year, In
fact.
The proposition is for the city to
continue to furnish 1875 of the pres
ent lights and the company 40. and
the company will furnish the addi-
tional lights required which at pres

The members Of the council deem
the proposition made. the details of

one yet offered, and in all probabili-
ties IL will be accepted.
The price OF the lights to the city
will be $G2.50. the same price quoted
on the 200 light proposition.

We need the present number OF men
and soon shall need more, to properly
police the city. II is all very well
TO talk about cutting down expenses
but We get censured IL we don't keep
order in the city. and we certainly
cannot do 1t with a small force"
The mayor ovcrlooks the fact,
however. that il the Head bill passes,
il will compel the city to have at
least thirty patrolmen, no matter
whether the police board intends to
increase the regular number or not.
The present force consists of 20 reg
ular patrolmeD, one extra. and a
chief. captain and lieutenant,-2 in
all. No matter il the commissioners
are willing for this force to. remain
as 1t is. "a men. they would have to
put on thirty men under the Head
bill in addition to chief, captain

This extra $1,000 a year is what
the general council is trying to save

resolution was adopted last night.
The mayor of Paducah favors sad
ding this additional $1,000 on the
taxpayers. and declined to sign the

that cities of the second class and
all other classes, should have the
right 10 legislate for their own self
government, which right we believe
the constitution of the state and
their charters clearly intend they
shall have.
We assert that the general council
of Paducah Is composed OF represen-
tative business men. recently elected
by the people and that said council
has the welfare of the city and its
people at heart to the fullest extent
and will at all times protect them
personally and financially to the best
Of its ability, and that said general
council enjoys the complete conf
dcnce of the people of Paducah. and
II assumes that all other second class
cities are equally protected and
guarded by their elected representa-
tives.
Our city has recently been placed
In the second class. and has not the
population OF either OF the other cit
les of the same class In the state.
and therefore its requirements for
police protection are different from
those cities.
Therefore, the general council of
Paducah respectfully requests that
the senate does not concur in the ac-
