WIEBOLDT HERE
FOR SHORT TIME
Talked With Mrs. Hale Over
The Telephone
She Has Mortgage on Store i'm Chi
cago Which Owner Is Charged
With Burning.
HIS DAUGHTER WAS WITH HIM.

w. r. Wieboldt and daughter
Martha, of Chicago, suspected in the
Windy City of being responsible for
an attempt to burn the Wieboldt fur
niture store, visited Paducah two
weeks ago and held a conversation
with Mrs. Emma Hale, also known as
Hill, of 533 Madison street, who holds
la mortgage on the Wieboldt store
building. Mrs. Hale did not see the
furniture dealer, speaking to him
over the telephone, and he left with
out giving any inforamtion relative
to his movements.
Mrs. Hale is a trained nurse and
resides with Mrs. B. j. Sheriff. She
has been here two years and resided
in Chicago six years prior to coming
to Paducalh. While in Chicago she
met the Wieboldts. once wealthy and
prosperous people. She became finan-
cially involved in their affairs, holding
a mortgage on their store, but had
not heard of any attempt to burn the
building until seen by a reporter Sat
urday night.
Mrs. Hale stated that all SHE knew
of the Wdeboldts' coming to Paducah
was that Saturday, two weeks ago,
she received a telephone message
from man giving the name of Vie
boldts and asking for an audience
with her He explained that he was
stopping at the Palmer with his
daughter and would attend the show
that night Mrs. Hale was unable to
attend that night but agreed to meet
him in the afternoon in the postoffice
lobby She did not see him, Vie
boldt leaving suddenly after handing
the general delivery clerk letter to
Mrs. Hale The letter stated simply
that he was unable to see her ON ac-
count of business. A thorough
search failed to discover any other
acquaintances Of the furniture dealer
in Paducah. 1t is presumed he has
gone south.
Wieboldt and daughter left Chica-
go suddenly after an attempt to burn
his store was discovered. 1t is said
he had been in financial straits for
some time, and Chicago police sus-
pect him of being responsible for the
attempt to burn the store, and arc
trying to intercept him.

TRANSFER BOATS
FOR NEW RAILWAY
To Take Cars From Paducah
Across to BrOOkpOrt
Much Preliminary Work Must BE
Done Before Construction of
Line Is Started.
NO OTHER COMPANY BEHIND 1T

Transfer boats and facilities sim
liar to those used by the Illinois
Central railroad here, wKl be used
by the Paducah Southern railroad III
crossing the Ohio river when that
road is built. No definite statement
as to whether the railroad would
cross at Brookport or Metropolis has
been obtainable but indications point
strongly to Brookport. Much prelim-
mary work will be necessary before
the actual construction or the rail-
road will begin. The terminal facili-
ties in Paducah with the franchises
for running through the city must
be obtained from the general coun-
ell. Making arrangements for float
ing the bonded debt of the company
and other financial operations will
require time, thought they are being
rushed.
All tn plans will be raid solely
for the construction of the line from
Paducah to Hickman. Another cor
poration than the one here will build
the line from st. Louis to the over
the-river terminal.
1t is said that no other systems
antagonistic to the Illinois Central
are behind the Paducah Southern. 1t
is new Zine and while it will be
competitor of the Illinois Central,
and OF the Paducah Traction CON-
pany from being an interurban line.
no other opposition than comes in
ordinary competition is expected.

War clouds are lowering; the big
wood type is coming down from the
top shelf of the cabinet; red ink is
flowing from overweight color at
tachments; two-column, doublelead-
ed editorials are once more In fash
ion. The jingoes are back. The fell
lows who frothed at the mouth when
John Hay was introduced to King
Edward; the fellows who tried to
plunge the United States into war
with Spain before the administration
had completed preparations, are now
training their popguns on the white
house again, and shouting that the
national honor Is assailed. They talk
of honor, who do not know the
meaning of the term. Honor prompts
a nation, as it does a gentleman, to
keep its word. Our WORD is out to
Japan that her citizens shall have
the same rights of travel and resi-
dance" in the United States that otn-
er foreigners have What this means is
shortly to be defined by the courts,
but IN the meantime symptoms of
hydrophobia are unbecoming to an
enlightened press. No one who. un-
derstands the character of this ad-
ministration fears that 1t will allow
the national honor to be trampled
upon. And yet, contrast the attitude
of the president with the terriers of
the press that bark at his heels.
While he exerts his efforts to bring
about peace, he demands stronger
navy and coast defenses for our cas-
tern possessions. The terrier press
while crying for war, grows hoarse
in denunciation of every penny spent
In anticipation of a war which it is
striving might and main to precipi-
tate. Should that unlocked for con-
tingency arise, and war actually be
declared, the president should organ
ize a fighting brigade among the jim
go editors and send them on the
first ship to the orient. Otherwise,
they will stay at home, as they al
ways have in other emergencies, and
embarrass the administration as
much as possible in the prosecution
of the war.

No better selection for president
of the Commercial club could have
been made than Mr.. H. C. Rhodes, a
man of proven business ability. Com
handing the respect and esteem of
all classes of citizens for his personal
worth and integrity, he not only will
adorn the Office, but will lend to the
organization the strength and pres
tige which he Yields in his personal
affairs. It Is more or less of a sacri-
fee a man of large affairs makes
when he assumes the obligations
which such an Office carry with them.
"a sacrifice for which the honor
scarcely compensates him; but ev-
cry man owes the community a du-
ty, according to his talents, and
President Rhodes is performing mis-
as becomes a good citizen.

Returns From the Russian Elections
Are Coming In.

st. Petersburg. Feb. 4.-Second
degree elections of peasants and the
smaller land owners were held yes
terday in twenty-one provinces. Par
tial returns received up to 2 O'Clock
this morning show, as had been an
ticipated, pronounced swing to the
left from the officially announced re-
suits of the first elections. A con-
siderable proportion of the successful
candidates are Social Democrats and
Revolutionists Many so-called Mod
crates and Independents cast off their
cloak and came out in their true cob
ors in favor of the opposition.

How To Treat Employees,

In the autobiography of a Bust
ness Man." in the February Every
body's, the author thus describes his
own methods:
Every store that I know of In
America obliges its help to stand on
their feet from morning until closing
time. Behind each counter in my
store is chair l want my employees
when not busy to sit down and rest.
AS | walk through the different de-
partments in my store my employees
do not have to feel that they must
brace up because the Boss is COM
ing around. My employees are doing
right al the time, because they know
that | am doing right and. using them
as near right as know how. My en-
ployees would far rather have me
home than abroad guess that l
am an easier fellow to work for than
the manager, and he cannot be very
severe on them because / always tell
him to use them just as we'll as |
use him. l tell every man at the
head Of department, BE kind to the
help under you. Do, not speak to
them in any other way than the way
in which | speak 10 you. Handle
your help so that they will respect
you and SO that they will regret to
leave my employ"

or fight, to live or die for his country
The salvation or the ruin of this
country depends not on the multiple
cation OF ballots. but on the charac-
ter of the next generation. The foun-
dation OF this republic rests in the
home life Of America. Women have
a nobler and a more responsible mis-
sion in life than men. Nor do we
think that the cultivation of the
arts and graces, the promotion of
music, the esthetic development Of
the community and the dispensation
of charity, should in any way detract
from their home responsibilities.
Nay. we go farther and assert that
mere information on public questions
of the day and intelligently casting
ballot should not undermine our
home life. But always we must re-
member that the woman's duty lies
in the home, and that to permit
anything to come between her and
her devotion to the training of her
children is nothing less than treason
able.
It was this-all this and more
to which we alluded when we spoke
of votes women may control. But
as for the average man, perhaps his
attitude is easily understood, when
we reflect, that he can not help COM
pairing the women who wish to vote
and the reasons why they wish to
vote, with his own mother AMI the
reasons why she never thought of
voting.

trustees for this district will meet
Saturday. February 16. and COM
plete the plans
The tax is 25 cents ON every hun

Now, that the general council is
completely organized for business,
this would be a good time to intro
duce that measure prohibiting the
sale of TOY cartridge pistols" in the
city of Paducah. Four little lives
paid the forfeit OF this dangerous
traffic during the holidays. II the
profit to pistol dealers is sufficient to
warrant the sacrifice of more lives
next Fourth of July and Christmas
the general council would do well to
encourage the sale by non interior
ence. II a human life is too high a
price to pay for the business. the
general council has a duty to per-
form in prohibiting It.

BY WAY OF DEMURRER.

Broad indeed is THE SUN in its
views; liberal, truly, is 1t in regard
to the views of others; glad to get
an expression from It's readers in
the "Voice of the People" column,
especially when that expression
throws new or different light on
any subject editorially treated. But
funny-we make no pretense at be-
ing numorous-and certainly moth
ing was further from our thoughts
than being funny when we wrote
that editorial on "Woman's Rights. "
Had NJ. L. c. stopped with the Sec
ond paragraph of the criticism on
the editorial, our position would
have been stated exactly, and we
should have spent the Sabbath in
peace feeling that we mad been UNI
derstood and appreciated. We did
align ourselves consciously and in
tentionally in support OF woman's
capacity for exercising the franchise.
We did then drop back to the view
point Of the average man, but first
having, as we sincerely believed,
clearly indicated that the whole in
tent and purpose of the editorial
was to define as nearly as we could
from observation the attitude of the
average man. THE SUN has not as
sumed a position either for or
against finale suffrage. Knowing
politics, as the ancient river plot
knew every rock in the channel, hav-
ing struck them all, we venture the
assertion that politics will be no bet
ter wnen the women vote. Confessing
ignorance of women, as becomes our
sex, we do not pretend to venture an
opinion as to the effect on women.
We will cross the suffrage bridge
when we come to It.
But when we spoke of the ways
women may influence votes without
going to the polls. the unconscious
humor of which seems to have open
ed the food gates Of NJ. C. LIS mirth,
the mlsconstruction our critic placed
on our language shows what run
away horse a sense of humor may
prove when spurred too hard. As we
penned those words we had In mind
a dear, old mother, VINO is neither a
coquette, a bride giver nor a shrew,
nor yet one who has to dissipate her
"powers and energies lin frivolous
devices TO kill time" She seems to
have found that the training of a
citizen kept ner busy until she
reached that age, when, had she cno.
sen a more ambitious career, she
might have been excused for consid-
ering the utter emptiness of public
life. She saw a patriotic duty thrust
upon her and performed it nobly
She had no ambition that called her
into the world She felt the sway of
empire in her own home. She knew
the thrill of power, the cut of keen
ingratitude, the fckleness of human
nature. She read the history of a
nation in one little life. and saw
a coming generation summed up in
a single being, and when he grew
to manhood she kissed him and
blessed aim and sent him out to vote

Attempts to Abate ripping Nuisance

80 far, attempts at suppressing
the practise of tipping have been
sporadic and vain" writes Theodore
Waters, in "shall We Give Tips" in
the February Everybodys. ''Thare
ARE restaurants where 1t is forbidden
and at the same time winked at.
There are theaters, shops and clubs
where the printed rule against tip
ping Is much in evidence, but where
small services are to be obtained only
lat the expense of a surreptitious graf
uity. There Is an anti-tipping league
the members of which are pledged to
give no tips, but which has not sue
ceeded in creating a popular senti-
ment against tipping. More impress
sive is the fact that various state leg
islatures have passed bills making
the practice of taking tips without
the consent of an employer mis-
demeanor, punishable by fine or inn
prisonment or both. But when has
such punishment actually been visited
upon such offenses? And, to make
the states action more Intellectual,
the federal government permits tip
ping, tips to Pullman porters being
regularly sanctioned items on the ex-
pense vouchers of government EN-.
ployees."

Discovery that five boys under 16
years of age are responsible for a
series of burglaries in Paducah. has
caused a shock to the community
that should awaken citizens to the
necessity Of doing something to curb
the tendencies OF the juvenile crimi-
nails. Punishment by prison terms
will only serve TO perpetuate these
tendencies. Strict enforcement OF
the curfew ordinance is good, but fu-
tile when spasmodIcally applied.
