Let Cairo Have Them.

Connors and Gregory, infelders
were last night sent to Cairo by Man,
ager Lloyd and will play with the
Cairo team. ~
Connors is crack first baseman
He came here to play the first sacb
to compete with Bert Haas. Con
nors worked several games behind
the bat for the Indians and showed
he was good catcher as we'll as
first baseman. EIe is good stickel
and Paducah loses a good man ia
him.
Gregory is a fast infielder, as fas
as will be found in the league. Hi'
stick work was not up to other mem
bers of the Indian team, and he wal
turned loose Both are good men
but Lloyd had to let some one go
and selected those he could best af
ford@-to release.

Many Uniformed Figures Viii
Be Seen Tomorrow.
In Spite of Effort to Postpone, Lack
of Special Trains, Etc, Outlook
Promises Well.
LOCAL BRETHREN ARE READY

Uniformed figures will predomi-
nate in Paducah tomorrow AS the city
will be host to several thousand Odd
Fellows from Illinois. East Missouri
and Tennessee. The exact number can
not be estimated correctly. but Padu
cab will supply about 500 of them.
The S7th annual meeting of the
Interstate /. o. o. +. association
meets here tomorrow and everything
is in readiness for the meeting. The
hall is beautifully decorated, the
committees all ready for the recep-
tion and entertainment of the visit
ors. and every matter pertaining TO
the convenience of the visitors has
been arranged From indications II
will be the best interstate meeting
ever held. and the local lodgemen
will put forth every effort to make II
memorable one.
The program calls for a big pa
rade. public speakings, band contests
and private lodge degree work. A
big ball. probably the biggest OF its
kind ever given, is another feature
OF the meeting. The ball will be held
at the Palmer house following the
completion of the competitive degree
work and tickets are being sold fast
at 81 each.
Mayor Yeiser will be one of the
speakers to welcome the visitors, and
others will also speak at The Ken
lucky. The program as arranged, and
previously published. will be car
ried out to the letter with one posi-
BILE omission. this the business ses-
sion of the interstate association.
Unfortunately the president of the
association and some few members
of his committee desired to postpone
the business session. in fact the en-
tire meeting. but the arrangements.
advertising. etc, had been carried
too far. and rendered II an impossi-
bility to postpone. The Padueah mem
bers OF the association decided ad-
versely to postponement. but the
president insisted and postponed the
date of this session to May ..
While the railroads will be unable
to furnish a full equipment of spe-
cial trains there will be enough spe-
cials run to accommodate the
crowds. and several thousand visit
ors will be here tomorrow. Merchants
have been requested to decorate and
some will do so tonight.
The meeting promises. from every
Indication, to be a success.

The .Kifty" Is Here.

The Kitty league has ARRIVED" ="
and there is no mistaking this fact.
When the Kitty league was born into
the baseball world and blinked its
first few innocent blinks, 1t was a
sickly looking kitten. When Owens
boro and Henderson fell of and Grip
pied the feline somewhat, the sport
ing editors began saying things.
Anyway the "cat came back" and
il has several lives to come yet. The
Kitty is a full-hedged cat now and is
showing some few its claws. Evans
Vile and Terre Haute have felt the
cats claws and if there are anymore
TO go into the lair let them come.
1t is not question of will you
come down into the Kitty league?"
but rather "can you make good in
the Kitty feague?" This is the ques-
ton bothering the players, and many
ex-Kitty leaguers who made but fair
showing last year and playing phe-
nomenal ball this season in faster
company, or alleged faster company.
The Kitty league is no longer an
experiment. 1t has arrived and is
here to stay. The players are sought
by bigger leagues, and the sporting
writer's and ball team managers are
keeping their peppers turned on the
Kitty. II is developing players; fast
ones and good ones.

Theatrical Notes


Walter Damrosch, whose coming
with the New York symphony Or
chestra on May 5 is an event anuci-
pated with unusual interest. was
highly amused recently by an offer
from the. manager of string OF
vaudeville. houses to go on the cir
cult for a tour OF six weeks.
at may have been mere snob-
bishness that prompted my declina-
tion," aid Mr.. Damrosch, "but at
any rate | rejected the offer. Per-
haps 1t was cowardice. q fear that |
might not be able to compete with
the vaudevillian who plays Home.
Sweet Home" with a shotgun, or the
ladies who play jingle tunes by skip
ping up and down a musical ladder.
But, nevertheless if a prominent
German conductor can give a con-
cert in a department store in order
to advertise the wares, the step from
symphony concerts to vaudeville may
not be as long one as | had i'm
agjned.
Mr.. Damrosch firmly believes that
public taste in matters musical IS
steadily improving in this country
and the success with which the New
York Symphony orchestra has met
would seem to bear out that belief.

FACTS ABOUT SAN FRANCISCO.
Chief City of California and Ninth Larg.
est CITY of United States.

In 1900 San Francisco was a city of
some 343, 600 souls. 1t is not the capt.
tai of California, but it is the chief city
of that State and of the Pacific coast.
In 1900 it ranked ninth among the one
hundred largest city of the United
States.
The city is located on a hill, sandy,
rocky and treeiess peninsula, which is
thirty miles in length and six miles
across at the city, and which cuts off
San Francisco bay from the Pacific
Ocean. The greater portion of the
peninsula is wholly unfit for cultivation,
and it was evidently not intended by
nature that it should be used for resi-
Dental purposes. Millions of dollars
were spent in grading and other i'm
provements. San Francisco bay is
about seven miles in width opposite
the city and about twelve miles in
width at the widest point. The bold
and rugged shores of the Golden Gate
rise on the north as high as 1000 feet
in places, while on the south they are
from 300 to 400 feet in height. Many
of them are covered with shifting white
oand. Thirty feet of water may be
had on the bar at low ebb, while within
it is much deeper and the anchorage is
good.
About the city, which is located on
the east slope of the peninsula, tower
high hills, which were formerly cut up
by many gullies. The low ground at
the base of these hills was formerly
narrow, except in what is now the
southern portion of the city. There are
succession of loose, barren sand hills
made the passage of wagons impossi-
BILE. All this has, of course, been
changed during the last half century.
Where big ships formerly rode at an
Choir are now paved streets, for the
cove was filled in some fifty years ago.
But one road leads out of the city,
whose thickly settled streets are built
in the amphitheatre formed by the
three hills. These hills prevented the
city's being built after any uniform
plan.
San Francisco is nevertheless a most
beautiful city. Much has been done to
improve its appearance, and it has been
adorned with many handsome public
buildings. For a long time many of the
residences were built of the famous
California redwood, which is not at all
infammable, and this accounts in large
measure for the fact that the city has
been singulary free from disastrous
conflagrations since the sos when sew
eral large fires did occur. 1t was sub
squent to this that the use of redwood
was begun.
Across the bay is Oakland, there is
situated the Leland Stanford, Jr., Uni
versity, which was damaged.
The Palace Hotel was, at the time of
it's erection, the largest building of its
kind in the world. 1t cost SO, $50, 600,
and could accommodate 1900 guests

GETS
THE NEXT REUNION
Business of Sixteenth Annual Reaaion
Over...0ld Officers Reelected by
Acclamation.

New Orleans, La, April 26. The
formal business of the sixteenth a n
nual reunion of the United Confederate
Veterans came to a close this after
noon. One day of the reunion proper is
left and that will be devoted to the pa
rade of the veterans.
Richmond, Va, was selected as the
place for holding the next reunion, the
choice being made by reclamation.
The only competitor of Richmond was
Birmingham, Ala, but the sentiment
in favor of Richmond was SO strong
that the advocates of Birmingham did
not allow the matter to come to a vote
and withdrew in favor of Richmond
before a roll-call was ordered. The
fact that the monument of Jefferson
Davis is to be unveiled in Richmond
next year was a potent influence with
many of the old soldiers.
The reunion, viewed from a business
standpoint was u%nventful. The chief
new measures of Importance to be
adopted were one which will recon-
mend to the different States that pen
sions be paid to slaves now living who
followed their masters to the war
and n which declares in favor of the
setting apart of one day in the year by
each camp of the organization for me-
mortal services in behalf of the Con-
federate dead.
The next business was the election of
officers for the ensuing year, and all the
present officers were reelected by ac-
clamation.
Gen. S. ID. Lee, the com~mander-in-
chief; Gen. w. L.. Cabell, the COM
mander of the Trans Mississippi depart
ment, and Gen. Walker, commander of
the department of Northern Virginia,
made brief addresses of thanks for the
honor bestowed upon them.
Letters %regretting inability to be
present we're received from Mrs. JEFF
ferson Davis, Mrs. IT. j. Jackson, Mrs.
Geo. E. Pickett, Gen. S. B. Buckner,
Gen. Marcus j. Wright and Gen. Basil
w. Duke. Mrs. John H. Reagan, wife
of the last surviving member of the
cabinet of President Davis was pre-
sented to the convention and heartily
cheered.
The convention then formally adj
journed to meet in Richmond, Va, in
1907.
