PADUCAH. KY. WEDNESDAY EVENING. APRIL A.

Mr.. Perry Malone. of Murray, just
before noon and obtained some addi-
tional facts regarding the fire from
him: Mr.. Malone says there Is no
doubt but that the fire started in the
attic of the building and that, as Is
the universal opinion, the building
was fired by an incendlary, as said
above. He says that there were no
vaults in the building and that much
of the county records were lost, but
that out of the county clerks Office
some important books and records
were rescued. Many of the books al
so in the county judges Office were
saved, though this was not known
earlier. Some friends had removed
them for safe keeping and did not
report the fact until later. Few of
the books in the circuit court clerk S
Office were saved, among the valua-
bles being lost being the old indict-
ments and the records of all the
courts of the county for S2 years
past.
Yesterday the county's fiscal court
convened regularly and was to have
continued routine work today. This
morning 1t met to consider more i'm
portant business than expected, this
being preparation for a place where
in the circuit court, which convenes
next Monday, can meet and also for
the erection of a new courthouse at
the earliest day possible. The board
will dispose OF these matters in
some way ere 1t adjourns.

Council Will Make Request For
Sometime This Year.
City to Assist In Raising Funds TO
Buy the Silver Ser
vice.
COMMITTEE HAS MATTER NOW

At the council meeting Monday
night Mayor Yeiser suggested that
the council appoint committee
from that board to meet the commit
tee from the aldermen and take up
the matter of giving something to-
ward the fund being raised by pri-
vate subscriptions with which to
purchase a silver service for the gun
boat Paducah. The mayor, also, sug-
gested that the secretary of the navy
be petitioned to detail the gunboat
to come to Paducah to receive the
service. and this will be done, and
the boat will probably come to Pa
ducah this year.
When the secretary was requested
last fall to allow the boat to come to
Paducah, 1t had been detailed for ac-
tive service and could not be spared,
but the promise was given that some
time this year she would be allowed

be.
1t is proposed to give the Padu-
cab a silver service costing about
$500. About 5000 has already been
subscribed, and the city will proba-
bly, give $500, so the other $40O
should be easily secured.
1t is quite. a compliment to Padu-
cab, that a gunboat has been named
for it, and the citizens should show
their appreciation Of it by donating
for the fund. The Commercial club
has been assisting in raising the fund
and will receive subscriptions at any
time.
The gunboat Paducah is one Of
the very latest pattern boats in the
navy, and has already tasted powder

Greenyille, May 12. = Having com

The annual election of officers was
the last important act of the conven,
ton before adjournment. All nomina.
tions were made by committee and the
following were chosen by a unanimous
ballot on motion of j. H. Thayer:
w. j. Roddey, of Rock Hill, presi-
dent.
w. ID. Morgan, of Georgetown, vice
president.

A number of resolutions, some of
which were of grave Importance to the
financial welfare of the State, were in
PRODUCED by the committee on resolu-
lions yesterday, and duly acted upon by
the convention. Wilson G. Harvey,
chairman, read the resolutions for the
committee.
Perhaps the most important resolu-
ton received and adopted was that
looking toward the appointment of a
commission by the Legislature to ex-
anime and audit the books and accounts
of all corporations doing business in
South Carolina; the idea being to ascer-
tain the true condition, reliability and
for the protection of the public. The
executive committee will probably make
an effort to have such a law framed at
the next General Assembly. There was
some discussion on the resolution, but
no opposition to it, President Montgom-
cry and others pointing out that there
had been more than one financial crash
within recent years in the State by
which many innocent stockholders and
the public generally suffered. Such
thiDpS ho said could in n 10
prevented by the constant supervision
of an auditing commission.
1t is probable that the time honored
rule giving 3 days of grace on bank pa
per and notes will be abolished in the
course of time. According to a resolu-
ton adopted yesterday the bankers as
ISOLATION will make an effort to have
the Legislature pass such an act at the
next session.

o! who would be a landsman
And never feel the tide
OF fiery exultation
And patriotic pride
Go bounding through his pulses,
And sweeping DER his soul,
When DER the dark-blue waters
The guns begin to roll?
The acrid smell of powder
Is heavy on the air,
The black and shining muzzles
With jets of crimson flare,
To every foe of freedom
They sound the crack of doom
When DER the tossing ocean
The guns begins to boom.
The HURTING shells go singing
Above the surging brine
A song of naval glory
That fires the blood like wine.

And walk upon the shore,
When Ger the foaming pillows
The guns begin to roar!
