SECRET CONFERENCE.
or States Witnesses to Appear
Against Harry Thaw.

New York, Jan. 23.-The principal
witnesses for the state in the case of
Harry X. Thaw, who went on trial
today for the murder of Stanford
White, had their final secret confer
ence with the state attorney and his
assistants today. Nearly all the Wit
nesses expected to testify against
Thaw have been reached by subpoe-
mas, and were on hand. They were
taken to the conference rooms and
each was questioned with the idea of
learning just what testimony may be
expected when the witness goes on
the stand
Thaw passed a quiet night in his
cell and was up early in anticipation
OF long siege with his attorney nd
the customary daily visits from his
wife, mother and sisters.

Meanwhile, sentence day, that mo-
mentous time, which all prisoners
await with painful uncertainty, was
drawing nigh. Trials, of course.
were to come first, but practically
every court prisoner knew that he
had been caught with the goods on, >
and that sentence day would claim
him for her prey My trial was soon
over. My lawyer had worked" very
adroitly, and. received sentence i'm
mediately-the reform school until
] had improved. I remember feeling
very sheepish when / was taken back
to the Jail; such sentence was meant
for baby, thought, and what would
the "old hands" think? They came

few days later the other trials
were finished, and sentence day was
definitely announced. The men to
be sentenced put on their "best" for
the occasion, those having a surplus

them with those who were short of
these decorations. A hard fate stared
them all in the face, and each one

A STEP RACKWARn-

With one protest against the
items Of the city budget for 1907, as
passed by the board of councilmen.
we must go on record. and that is
the cutting down of the public libra
ny fund from $4,000 to $4,000. That
$500 for the library is more import
ant to Paducan than the extra $4,000
for the streets. It should not be said
that this administration cares more
for the domestic beasts than It does
for the children The library appor-
tionment should be increased, rather
than diminished, but, at all hazards,
1t should be kept up The library is
not over large for a city of this size.
The annual report shows an increase
OF hundreds of patrons and a steady
growth Of the "llbrary habit" among
those who visit the institution. Our
school children are being trained to
use the library. When they grow up
they will not forsake 1t Whether they
work in the shops, the Office or the
factory they will continue to patron
ize the library Their tastes will be
diversified The library must cover a.
wide field, and It must be kept UP to
date The proper way to build up a
library is to add each year as much
as possible to the collection Of books.
Gradual accumulation is the least ex-
pensive and most satisfactory meth
cd. There will never be bond is
sue to buy books TIE $500 this
board of councilmen is seeking to
save, is $500 stolen from the culture
and knowledge of Paducah. The
streets will wear our, the sidewalks
Will decay, the sewers will become
useless some time, but the knowledge
gained from one of the books that
$500 would buy. would never be
lost. It would be transmitted from
those who read It, to all who come in
contact with them. Don't rob the IL
brary.
