ROwdyiSm at Opera House.

The News has on several occasions
referred TO the bad order which pre-
walls at the Paris Grand and to some
extent it has been stopped with the ex-
ception of the manner it which several
hoodlums VINO occupy the front seats in
the Parquette get up and rush out the
aisles just as the performances is COM
ing to a close on the last act. 1t
simply spoils the effect of the entire
show, as the most effective climax of
the performance is generally saved until
the grand finale and to have it marred
by a number of Johnnie boys" and
thoughtless children it is nothing short
of shame.
The majority of the patrons of the
Grand go to the theatre to see the
show, not the heart-breakers, etc., who
sit in front. Everyone sees them be-
tween the acts, we all know they are
there and know that there is no urgent
business outside from them to attend
to just before the curtain goes down
on the last act that could NOT be de-
ferred about two minutes. These
things are expected in beer gardens
and cheap fourth class theatres, but
not in genteel playhouse like we are
supposed to have in Paris.

BeCkham Refused to Pardon
BrOnStOn,

A delegation of Lexir gton politicians
were in Frankfort Monday to get Gov.
Beckham to grant a pardon to former
State Senator Charles ]. Bronston, of
Lexington, who is under indictment in
the Fayette Circuit Court for malicious
shooting at without wounding Col. w.
K. inward several months ago.
As'soon as the rumor became current
that the Governor had been waited
upon by the Lexington delegation,
Stanley Milward hurried post haste
to the Governor home to lodge a pro-
test against the granting of the pardon
If 1t had not already been done, and
was told by Gov. Reckham that ne had
refused to comply with the request.
1t is rumored that the Governors re-
fusal to pardon Bronston before his
trial will cost him a vote in The Legis-
lature, but whether this is true or not
could not be learned.

Buy at Home.

The enterprising firm of Shire &
Fltnian, manufacturing jewelers. of this
city, are TO be congratulated upon the
success OF their efforts in building one
OF the largest trades in their line in
THIS section of Kentucky, in fact it is
conceded by travelling men who visit
all the large cities that it far surpasses
any store of its kind to be found in
towns twice and three times the size
of Paris.
Messrs. Shire & Fithian are both
popular with the trade and exceedingly
polite to their hundreds of customers.
They buy their goods direct from the
manufacturer in large quantities and
save their patrons the "middleman's"
profit. AS for novelties, they have
them on display before the city ieweler
wakes up, and as for quality, the goods
show for themselves. If they turn out
an article not TO be just as represented.
these gentlemen take pleasure in re-
funding your money. That's strong
enough, isn't it?
With a firm like this in our city. it is
folly for people to leave town expect
ing to find something new in the
, jewelry line. We take the above firm
as an example to illustrate what fair
dealing, good goods and judicious ad-
vertising will do. In every other
branch of business in Paris it will be
found that you can do better in Paris
than elsewhere. Buy at home from
the merchants that keep their money
IN Paris and have your towns welfare
at heart.
The purchasing public will do we'll to
look over the columns of the News and
read the advertisements of the prosper
Gus and hustling merchants who invite
you to their stores to dosyour Christ
mas shopping.

SulliVan'S Life
Useful Lesson
For Athletes
EX-Champ Considered a
Dead One-Gordon,
Same Age, Still
Young.

The difference between taking care OF
yourself and throwing yourself away is
APPLY illustrated IN the same show at a
local theater this week IN the difference
between John L. Sullivan and Sam Cor
don, the strong man.
Sullivan viii be forty-nine years old on
October Is, and for the past ten years
has been considered an old man, 70
whom prolonged and violent exercise
would be a danger. He is between I'D
and 40 pounds overweight, and could
hardly get into condition without killing
himself. He still has a large amount OF
vitality and Is probably due for a long
life. but he is practically out OF the run
ming. or Is considered so.
Gordon Is year younger than Sulli-
van. ana Is sun In his prime. Indeed,
he is trying out new tricks N his pro
fessiOn which he would nos have at
tempted ten years ago Every muscle OF
his powerful frame stands out as clearly
as those in a trained wrestler, and his
endurance as little less than phenomenal.
Every night he lifts a horse and then
climbs a double ladder with the equine
swung from his waist by a belt. As a
preliminary 70 this he throws JJ0-pound
bells around the stage. At the end OF
his turn he does not appear IN the
least faugued. while sullivan. at the
end OF his fOur-TOund boxing exhibitions
nor against the law, is nearly all IN and
needs a rest
Gordon was physical instructor. at tho
old Manhattan Athletic Club, in New
York, and was for years prominent in
sporting events in the metropolis. He
frequently crossed Sullivan's path. and
was one Of the party which went from
New York 20 New Orleans in ISIS 10 see
the fight between Sullivan and Kiiraiu
In those Gays Sullivan was considered
one Of the fnest specimens OF physical
development in the world and q man
who would be III to battle for his life
for the next ten years. Gordon was
thought 70 be a man soon destined 10
become muscle bound and a back num-
Der. In four years Suliivan's careless
living had so told upon him that he
was an easy victim for a young stripping
like Jim Corbett, and. his professional
career came 70 sad and abrupt end.
Today. nineteen years after the Kilraiu
fight. Gordon Is stil among the cham
pions OF his style OF athletics and seems
good for five or ten years more Of work
on the stage. with many more as an in
