Anglo-Japanese alliances by a Fran

sion OF which Is calculated to allay
French fears relative to fndo- China.
NJ. Takeskoshi, the japanese states

most cordial and we're certain even
tually TO result In a friendly under
standing. Japan has not the slight
est Interior intention In connection
with lndo-Chlna. and Is prepared to
give the fullest guarantees 10 this

the Chinese empire. NJ. Takekoshi
recalled the fact that the Freyclnet
cabinet had proposed an alliance
with Japan in 1884, before the An

A WORD TO THE WISE.

All the boosting a paper gives
city; all the efforts of commercial
organizations to build up a city in
dustrially; all the expenditure of
money, time and brains in devising
, means to attract strangers TO city
and direct the current of suburban
I travel into its principal streets are
1 designed to directly benent but one
class of citizens, the retail mer-
( chants. Wholesalers aud JoDbers can
I be benefited only indirectly by the
Increased sales of the retailers; the
papers can reap a reward only after
Everybody else has enjoyed his
share; the manufacturers benefit on
BY as Increased tonnage warrants
better shipping facilities and rates;
and the real estate men. doctors,
lawyers and workmen get only
what the retail merchants leave.
Suburbanites attracted by better
rates and quicker schedules come as
rule just to patronlze the city re-
tail stores. Excursionists spend
their money with the retail mer-
chants; large conventions, horse
shows and such enterprises bring
people to the city to patronize hotels
and buy things from the city stores.
II is the retail merchant who
realizes direct immedite benefit
from the presence in the city of an
Unusual crowd, which can be meas
ured by the quantity of coin of the
realm in the till; and the only way
he can avoid pfofiting by the pres
ence of a crowd is by closing his
store
These are self-evident facts. and
being so, II would seem that the re-
tail merchants would be the first to
contribute to any sort of enterprise
10 increase their sales and profits
beyond the small donation they
would be called on to make, and at
he same time widen the field of
heir operations.
Yet. 1t is a fact that the retail
Merchants of Paducah as class are
he only people not contributing toI
uccess OF enterprises. which will ad-
'ertise and build up Paducah. The
<ll Horse show is approaching
but Che worst possible
Gather could make 1t failure from
Ick OF outside interest, for the pro-
'oters already arelnVed of many
r'ss and yisi'a' sstsrn

Judge Reed Has Bawdy House
Keepers on Uneasy Street.

NO MORE PLEAS TO ATTORNEY

Kentucky avenue resorts seemed to
be doomed In earnest
All judgments entered this term of
court against keepers Of bawdy
houses on Kentucky avenue were this
morning set aside by Circuit Judge
Reed. and his action is said to be a
step towards abating the nuisance
which has so long been complained Of
II is also limited that II is a step to-
wards Kidding that street and the
court is inclined to conform to the
idea the ministers and the park COM
missioners. who desire to convert that
portion of the city into a park and to
make Tenth street a popular boule-
ward.
II is stated that Judge Reed gave
as his reason for setting the judg-
ments aside that he desired to stop
the practice OF confessions through
the commemorative attorney. Here
tofore the keepers of these houses
have gone before the commonwealth
attorney and pleaded guilty. getting
on with the usual fine of s25 and
costs or $50 and costs. Judge Reed
knows nothing or has known nothing
of the matter except to enter up the
fines on his docket.
Judge Reed refused to talk for
publication about the matter but II is
tipped that drastic measures may be
adopted to make the street too hot to
hold the women.
II fines in these cases are made of
such burdensome nature. the keepers
OF the houses could be run on the
street.
