Capt William l.. Reed, of Evans
vile, in accepting the men. paid Ser
geant Blake many compliments on
his work, and said they composed one
Of the best squads of men he had
ever examined for the army. All are
large, muscular fellows, and passed
the physical examination without
flaw. They were quiet and orderly,
and seemed eager TO begin the duties
Of a soldiers life.
Vineyard was a specimen of perfect
manhood. For two years he has been
deputy sheriff near Elizabethtown,
H.. and before serving as sheriff had
experience as a constable. None Of
the men have had any military exper
lence.
In closing the work for the month
al January Sergeant Blake fell short

Der was 10. However, It was a good
showing for Paducah, and excellent
prospects are in store for February,
This Is one OF the largest squads of
recruits that has been sent to the bar
racks from Paducah, and represents
much work by Sergeant Blake.

Representative Eugene Graves is
of Opinion Deadlock Will Not be
Broken During Present Session.
Says That Prohibition Senti.
ment is Growing and There
is More Than Mere Talk
in RumOr.

Representative Eugene Graves came
In from Frankfort last night to look
after some cases in circuit court. that
were down for trial this week. Mr..
Graves is paired" with a Republican
representative and his absence will
not affect the senatorial race or any
other matter, where party lines are
drawn, When asked regarding the
senatorial situation. Mr.. Graves ex-
pressed the belief that the deadlock
will continue throughout the session.
IL do not believe an election will
be made unless one side catches the
other on guard some day, which is not
probable" said Mr. Graves.
THE talk about bill being passed
TO make the state a unit in local OPP
ton elections is not without founda-
ton, and the sentiment among the
members of both houses in favor OF
such a measure seems to be growing
eyery day"
Mr.. Graves IS confident that the
bin to change the order of holding
circuit courts IN the judicial district
will become law. as there is no OPP
position from either county.

Boyd Manley, Accused of Steal
ing Money and Valuables
From j. p. Fowler.
Key Returns to Place When
Suspect Returns to Work.


Charged with grand larceny, Boyd
Manley. colored, was arrested by the
police today. II Is alleged that Man
ley took $127.50 in cash and other
notes of value from tbe j. p. Fowler
saloon, Second street and Kentucky
avenue. Sunday afternoon. while no
one was present. Mr.. Fowler had the
money in his trunk in his room up
stairs, and when he went to supper at
5 80 O'Clock the money was there.
On his return at o'clock the money
and notes were missing, and also a
pass key that hung in an accustomed
place was gone.
Manley has been porter at the sa-
loon. and the pass key was used to
enter the rooms when cleaning them,
but the key was not permitted to be
taken from the building. Missing
the key from its place, Mr.. Fowler
said nothing when Mapley went to
work Monday morning, but soon after
his arrival, it is said, that Mr. Fowler
found the key hanging in the right
place.
All that was taken from the trunk
is valued at about $3.50. The doors
leading TO the room show no evidence
of having been forced, and the trunk
does not appear to have been broken
open. 1t is thought the thief used a
key to the trunk also. Nothing has
ben recovered In police court this
morning the case of Manley was con-
tinued until Friday morning.
