GREATER PADUcAH DAY.


Having decided to set apart a day
to be observed as Greater Pajucah
Day." when a preconceived idea for
raising funds necessary to exploiting
-the city's advantages, and a well or
ganized plan for the amalgamation
of local spirit shall be executed, the
next duty devolves upon us to make
it a Greater Paducah Day." by each
citizen doing his share toward the
success of the enterprise. The fact
that you did not originate the idea
does not excuse you from participant
ing and doing your allotted share.
There can be nothing behind such an
idea but public spirit, and such en-
thusiastic public spirit must be en-
couraged. Louisville has been ex-
plotted more in the last "a months
than in any former period of her his
tory, not associated with some disas-
ter, and all through the Commercial
club. Her Home Coming week, the
state fair, the coming Greater Louis
Vile exposition, and a dozen minor
affairs have all been promoted
through her Commercial club, which
has found time to push through a
100000 sewer bond scheme, and
nobody cried fraud and nobody kick
ed because the fellows VINO worked
hardest were at the head of things.
Considering her size, Paducah has
more this year 10 encourage the sort
of spirit that finds expression on
"Greater" events, than has Louis
Vile. Things are looking up in Pa
ducah. Some factories have made ex-
tensions; we are about to get a big
glass plant; the railroad shops nave
been buster than ever before; a big
grain elevator indicates that the
Louisville & Nashville railroad is
looldng this way; articles of incor-
poration show that other people see
a transportation future here; the Big
-Four and the Burlington railroads
are working engineering corps con-
stantly to find the most available
route from Harrisburg across the
river; the steamboat business is i'm
proving; building trade in Paducah
Is promised a record year for 1907,
and the whole population seems alive
to prosperity.
This is the tide, which we must
take at the food IN order to realize
all the good that Is in store for us.
The Commercial club is heading the
right sort Of movement, and 1t is the
duty Of the rest of us to go along.
If the Commercial club doesn't suit
you, that is nothing. Help this
Greater Paducan Day" idea ana
then do not relax your efforts until
the Commercial club is brought to
the state OF perfection, which you
would desire.
II is one Of the characteristics of
such an organization as a CONNER
cial club. that 1t will be Just as good
as the rest of the citizens viii allow
its members to make It.

The esteemed Cairo Bulletin by
comparing the police record of that
city for January with Paducah's un-
dertakes to show that this city Is
more immoral, the argument is pred
icated on the excessive number of
drunk and disorderly cases mere.
Cairo has more plain DRINKS and va
grancy cases. That only goes to jem-
onstrate the difference between ILL
nois and Kentucky whisky. The for
mer stupefies and then pauperizes,
while the Kentucky brand puts fire
and energy in its victim-misjirect-
ed sometimes, to be sure, as the po-
lice records snow, but at that, more
to be desired than the stupefaction
so manifest in the city below.

What Osteopathy win do.

There are but few people who have
not heard of Osteopathy, also of
some of its achievements. But there
are far too many who have accredit-
ed it with being good for only those
conditions from which they have
been cured, or which have come un-
der their observation. Not infrequent-
ly there is mutual surprise when one
who was cured of rheumatism meets
another who has been cured of asth-
ma or constipation. This is homely,
but very true illustration.
Personally, have cured chronic
cases of constipation, Rheumatism,
asthma, nervousness. neuralgia and
headaches for people whom you
know we'll, and the value of the Os-
teopathic treatment is but coming

should be.

BOYS OUT OF
JAIL AT LAST.
Released On Habeas Corpus Pro-
ceedlngs in Custody Of Their
Counsel Pending Inquest.
EYEWITNESS is OUT OF STATE

NEW BRUNSWICK, Oct 30
George and Thomas Thompson, the
Avenel boys who were charged with
the murder of Able Kaufman, at
Avenel short time ago. we're dis
charged from Jail yesterday after
noon in custody of their counsel. H.
b. Cook
Lawyer Cook carried the case to
Judge BooTaem on habeas corpus pro-
ceedings who, after listening to a
statement from the lawyer about the
case, gave the boys into his charge, to
await the result of the coroner's in.
quest.
No inquest has yet been held as tbs
only eyewitness to the assault is Out
of the state. As soon as he returns
Coroner Bishop says he will sift the
matter to the bottom.
The attention of the coroner was
first called to the matter by Prosecu-
tor Berdine who mad received a report
from Avenel that a murder had been
committed. BY the time the coroner
arrived some one has sworn out 4
warrant for the two accused boys and
they were arrested The coroner
learned that the victim had been in
excellent health up to the time he
was attackd by the two boys accused,
while going home from school.
The little fellow was SO badly hurt
that he had to go to bed where he
died day or two later. The dog
bite referred to occurred five or six
weeks before and was SO insignificant
that the parents of the child paid nc
attention to it, The boy had appar-
emily recovered from it.
The youths under arrest have bad
reputation in the community Other
children, it is said. have been assault
ed by them. The people of Avenel
tell the coroner that they want the
matter thoroughly investigated as
they are inclined to hold the two
boys responsible.

A Cheap Boast.

That was a cheap boast made by
Manager DeVarney, of the Home
Telephone Company, that in driving
his automobile from Dallas to Salem
in 81 minutes, he beat the record of
Bert Dennis by one minute. Cheap
for the reason that Mr.. Dennis has
never made, nor has he ever claimed
to have made, the run in 3S minutes.
His offer OF 500 to Mr.. Dennis to
repeat the SS-minute run is cheaper
still. Mr.. Dennis says he is not in the
racing business and has no desire to
beat anyone's record, his only concern
being to run his machine in a decent
and careful manner that will insure
the safety OF his passengers and win
the respect and goodwill Of the
farmers living along the road between
Dallas and Salem. 1t is evident that
DeVarney is seeking little notoriety,
or has rushed into print on the
strength Of ''t1ll" given him by
some person who desired to have a
little fun at his expense.
