GAVE A GOOD SHOW.
knights of Columbus Mfnstrels Make
Hit.

The knights of Columbus scored a
big hit with the people in their min
strel show last night. In every phase
of the minstrel work they were above
the average and many of the shows of
this kind which have been on the road
would have to bow to the Irish who
performed last night.
OF all the stunts which were put on
at the show last night, Charles J.
O'Laughlin takes the first place. He
was the cleverest Of the six funny end
men and in his singing and monologue
work he was strictly at" All the end
men were excellent. The other end per-
formers were John McQueeny, Joseph
Griley. Charles Booth, Walter Wingert
and e. L. Walsh Jests at the expense
of City Attorney Dreaming were the
rule with the end men. There were
other local hits.
The Boulder brothers made quite a
hit. These are two young boys VINO
have a talking stunt which would make
good any place. Master Charles Beu-
der has a remarkable soprano voice
and his singing efforts last night were
enthusiastically encored.
There were many other sPeclaltles.
Tiff Felix made a hit with a trombone
solo. William A. Graham as a soloist
won lots of applause and sang several
Of the old time touching Irish melo-
dies. The grand finale of the company
was the singing of THE Grand Old

stars and stripes figured.

ITCHING CURED
With Cuticura Remedies i'm
Three Days After Six
Months of Suffering.


AZ suffered fully six months. The
trouble began on my arms in little
red pimples and it was not long before
1t was all over my body, limbs, face,
and hands. 1t was so bad that I could
not rest night or day and during the
six months, did not get good nights
sleep. I doctored for three or four
months and spent at least twenty dol
lars trying to find q cure but none could
be found. Then I saw the Cuticura
Remedies advertised, and the next day
purchased some for seventy-five cents
at the druggists. I used them and I
was relieved of the itching in three days,
and have never had sign of any skin
disease since. The Cuticura Remedies
are the only remedies to use for skin
diseases, they have cured me and they
will cure others in the same way. j. w.

Cloudburst at MaysviIle.

Never in the history of Maysville's
Oldest inhabitants has such downpOur
OF water occurred as fell there Wednes-
day afternoon from to so O'Clock.
Commencing from a gentle rain 1t de-
veloped into a hailstorm and cloud
burst.
Streets and alleys were turned into
rivulets and raging torrents. The
damage is heavy in certain sections of
the city, the greatest loss occurring on
West Third street and Maddox Alley.
Here the water rushed through the
street in volumes six or eight feet
deep, carrying destruction to every
thing in It's path. The total loss viii
aggregate 10000.
At Lawrence Creek, two miles west
of MaysvilIe. the wife, son and
daughter of d. Boone, a tenant or

ed. The bodies of the wife and son
have been recovered. Ghe daughter S

of the schools was thing greatly 10
be desired
z. 1t was vehemently proclaimed
that in depositing the money with the
CITY Treasurer, you were seeking to
advance the interests of one particular
bank. and it was also asserted with
equal vehemence that In seeking to
change the place of deposit of the
fund. that the members of the School
Board were dis,nterested and only wish
ed to protect the interests of the peo-
ple and the school. The first part of
that statement was shown TO be I'M
true when it was proven in Court by
testimony which was not questioned or
disputed by the members of the School
Board, that six or eight hundred dol
lars would be saved to the taxpayers
BY allowing the fund to remain on de-
post with the City Treasurer in the
Bank OF Alexander & Co. 1t remains
for the Board of Education to show
whether the second part of the state
ment is true or false. The suggestion
OF Judge Stout that this money should
be deposited in the bank which will
pay the largest sum for the use is one
that meets with the approval OF every
taxpayer in the City of Paris. By
adopting it, the Board of Education
will sustain your contention that-the
profits arising from the use of this
money should go to the people to whom
It rightfuily belongs. If they fail or
refuse to do so, then the members of
that body must assume the full respon-
sibility for such action.
These, gentlemen, are the facts in
the case as developed in open Court,
no statement that l have made can be
controverted in any substantial particu-
lar. Upon the showing made there,
you have not only been fully vIndicat-
ed but your conduct in this matter has
been completely justified. The real
issues invovled in this case have been
made clear that thew can no longer be
misunderstood or mlsrepreSented. In
advising you upon this matter and the
proper course to pursue, l said TO you
that under a strict construction Of the
statutes, it was possible that the School
Board might be entitled to the control
OF this fund, but as the place of its de-
posit meant a matter of some several
hundred dollars to the taxpayers, it
was your duty TO retain it until the
matter was passed upon by the Court.
Under strict construction of the law,
the Court did decide the case against
you. That was a matter over which
you had no control and you can well
afford to accpet the result. While as
matter Of course, you have the right
of appeal, / take it is one that you do
not care to avail yourself of. In refus-
ing to unnecessarily sacrifice the inter-
ests of tie taxpayers, you performed
your full duty and on further response
bility rests upon you in this matter.
The people understand the question
now. and with them you can we'll afford
10 rest your case, for now that they do
understand it, ] am sure that your
course will meet with their approval.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Governor Mead's Unfitness.

An impartial survey of the present
gubernatorial situation in this state
instantly suggests that Governor
Mead's main strength in his aspira-
lions for reelection lies in the enc
mics he has made.
This is demonstrated locally by
the opposition of the Spokesman-Re-
view. Any public Official who has
earned the enmity of that publication
Is entitled to public confidence.
He has visible evidence Of having
incurred the displeasure of corpora
ton politics. The state has had lit
tie else than such politics and moro
than enough.
Governor Mead II also opposed BY
the lumber interests. For yearB these
