Chicago is torn by doubt as to
whether Police Inspector Me-
Cam, of the "levee" district
is CRATER, or Is the victim OF
divekeepers, who wish to get him out
of the way. 1t is OF but passing
moment whether Mccain is or is not
a CRATER. The dives are responsible
for the graft, not the police officers.
Therefore, sound logic would dictate
the removal of the dives instead of
the removal of the police officers.

SOME STORIES
AROUND TOWN

No doubt Paducah has one of the
largest or If not the largest Elks in
the state. He is James j. Wood,
chief of the Paducah fire department,
an was put through the Curriculum
last week. Now he is a full-hedged
member and feels as big as he is.
, The chief laughed when asked how
ne enjoyed the initiation ceremonies.
Although It is against the laws for
lodge members to tell tales out of
school," the chief doubtless didn't
have the pleasure of riding the goat.
In mentioning the greasy pole, how
ever, it is well to say that Chief
Wood could slide down all right. The
question of climbing it is another
thing.
The coming game between the slim
and fat Elks will not be participated
in by the jolly chief. Chief Wood
said the other day: you know I
am not going to play baseball" He
will be out to root for the fats, but
getting in the game has no charms
for him now.

Norman Hackett In Classmates

The manliness of Duncan Irving,
the role played by Norman Hackett in
De Miles big American play, StClass-
mates, was commented upon by eve
~ one Of the New York dailies when
the play ran its New York season at
the Hudson Theatre. ttSeryed him
right, said one critic when Duncan
Irving knocked his old rival, Bert
Stafford, down and out in the first
act. |'served him right. We ali
wanted to punch the old cad. An
other spoke Of the curbing of his fierce
longing for the girl of his choice and
his willingness to go down to the
South American Jungle to bring back
his rival in order that he (his rivaD
might flight fair and still third
made much of the tsquiet dignity of
the man when he closed his career for
the second time and calmly walked in
to the presence of death to win (for
the second time) the maid of his
choice. Norman Hackett is SO infatu-
ated with the part, he calls it tsthe
finish hero in American drama. = All
the world loves a lover but all the
world loves a manly lover best of all.
And this manly, American lover, who
gives up that he may attain, sacri-
fees that he may secure, grips one
with his true manhood, his real gem
tleman1iness, and conquers by his
quiet insistence on being a Man in
every corner in which he finds himself
placed. Norman Hackett will be seen
in the part at Glendive Opera House,

London. May IS Tuesday,.
George Meredith, the English novel
ist, died at 1886 o'clock this morn

The immediate cause OF death was
heart failure, following grave symp-
toms that developed early in the
evening. Mr.. Meredith's illness be
gan on May IA. and he had steadily
declined since that time. So serious
was his condition last night that the
attending physician remained con
stantly at his bedside.

occasion Of his eightieth birthday he
was showered with congratulations
from all parts Of the world. Mr..

Northern Pacific New Service Ef
fective May 23rd

Sunday, May q, 1909, is the day,
and all up and down nearly six thou
sand miles of Northern Pacific road
the word will go at 2:01 a. m.
.We,re on the new schedule, boys, z
for the Northern Pacific changes time
May 23d and establishes new service
over large portion Of its lines.
Already the mighty army Of en-
ployes handling the multitude Of Nor
them Pacific trains has had Fremont
ton of the coming pressure Of a sea
son of heavy traffic. Already, at round
house and in dispatcher's office, the
talk has centered upon Exposition
travel, and all it means to the men
who pull the throttle or work the key
or punch the long coupon tickets.
And as Number One''-the crack
North Coast Limited swings along
over the miles Of her shining course
and stretches her lean neck out on a
tangent which gives her chance to
CO., Frank Ferrill or Johnny Bender
or Jack Miller or whoever it may be
in the dancing cab on Sunday morning
the Esd will coax her on with all the
tricks known to the art, for Number
One0 is two hours faster than she
was before and she must make the
most OF the feeting minutes.
On and after that date the Northern
Pacific will operate daily electric
lighted transcontinental trains with
Individual berth-lights: four west
bound and four eastbound. Three Of
these each way run between St. Paul
Minneapolis and the North Pacific
Coast, one runs between st. Louis
Kansas City and the Coast. There is
direct connection with the transcon-
tinental service from Duluth and SUI
perior. There is, also, this season,
something entirely new and novel and
that IS through service daily be-
tween Chicago and the North Pacific
Coast BY way Of St. Paul Minneapolis.
Through standard drawing room and
tourist sleeping cars will leave Chi
cage for, and arrive At Chicago from,
the distant cities Of the North Pacific
Coast every day. Never before has

Let's Advertise Our own State

The opportunities which the Gov
eminent places within the grasp Of
the masses Of the people to acquire 8
portion of the fast disappearing sup
ply OF public lands should be brought
more fully before the people O. this
state.
A case has recently come to our
notice where parties ignorant of the
work of the United States Reclama-
ton Service, set out for points out
side of the state with a view of pur-
chasing farm, and on the way thence
passed directly through the inviting
and beautiful irrigated valley of the
Huntley Reclamation Project, which
they then saw and heard of for the
first time.
While the wisdom Of attracting de-
sirable immigration from points out
side of the state cannot be questioned,
it is also the part of wisdom to keep
within the state the best of our peo-
pie. In other words, we should con-
serve our resources in citizen material.
The rural press can greatly assist
in this important work of building up
the state by more frequently and free
ly bringing these Government enter
prises before the public notice.
