MATINEE CLUB Is
HOLDING ANNUAL
SESSION TODAY

President Thompson, of the Mat.
inee club. has called meeting for 8
O'Clock this afternoon at the Com
mercial club rooms, Sixth street and
Broadway, to wind up the year and
consider the future of the organiza,
ton. A statement of the finances
will be made at this time. The asso-
citation spent more than $1,000 re-
facilitating the fair ground track and
buildings, and a comparatively small
outlay this spring will make 1t one
of the best half mile tracks in the
country.
The meet last fall was wonderfully
successful, and divorced from the
horse show, which, II is said, will not
be attempted this year, 1t should
prove financial success, to the ex-
tent of paying expenses, all the pro-
moters seek.
The members are all horse lovers,
in the game for the sport and the
sake of horse flesh in western Ken
lucky. The fall meet is remembered
by Paducahans as a most enjoyable
occasion and one that conferred the
attention of the Purchase on Paducah.

The story says Merritt is an indie

Independent planters, further than to
try to induce them to sign the pledge;
and in Ballard county. where there is

bers with commendable patience, have
awaited decision, involving the same
state of facts. II is not likely that
with a remedy in their grasp, they
would proceed to violence. is the cur
rent opinion.
The Ballard county association met
at La Center Saturday and decided TO
enter about 35 suits against associa-
ton. men, who have violated their
pledge, and to restrain others from
selling. Today many of those on the
list TO be enjoined, appeared at La
Center and told Attorney Moore they
would stand by the association, and
no legal action is necessary.
II was also decided to send a list
of association men to buyers at Padu-
cab and Mayfield and to warn them
not to buy from men whose names
appear on the list.
