Mayfield, Feb. THAT Mayfield
has case of murder and arson is no

man taken from the ruins of Ben
Parker's boarding house, made their
report this morning to County Judge
Grassland. They reported that their
Investigation revealed a keen cut
Through the heart that could only
have been made with a we'll directed
blow with a sharp instrument, like a
dirk knife. The mans skull was
fractured and two of his teeth
knocked out. He had been lying on
his back all through the fire and his
back was not burned. The opinion
|of the surgeons is that the man was
dead before the fire touched him. No
clew to the identity of the body has
been found, and though many rumors
are current. no charges are preferred
against anyone.

ciai club and the members of the Re

The Greater Paducah day will be
the consummation of a plan for de
veloping the city, and while no pro
gram has been mapped out, il is UNI
derstood that Broadway WIZ be the
center of attraction on that occas-
ion and the merchants will play an
important part in its success. AS the
idea involves the increasing of Padu-
cah's Industrial output, the laborng
men are necessarily more intimately
interested in 1t that any other class
OF people. and for that reason the
Central Labor Union is expected to
take a leading part in the enterprise.
The Commercial Club Field day
will be concerted effort to increase
the membership. The success of this,
Of course. depends on the individual
members. If each secures one new
members, the membership win be
doubled in day. Some social feat
ures will mark the occasion at the
