SOME STORIES
AROUND TOWN

II is not often that an ex-mayor
is accused Of knocking down." as
the higher officials are given a more
appropriate name for the offense II
guilty. Recently DR.. John Bonds, a
member OF the police and fire COM
missioners. went to st. Louis on bush
ness. and while absent from the city
secured ex-Mayor Yeiser to take
charge of the drug store. DR.. Yeiser
is an old hand at the druggists bust
ness, as for many years before he
occupied the mayors chair he was in
the business.
The week DR.. Bonds was away rain
fell almost every day. and of courss
there was remarkable falling of of
trade When DR.. Bonds returned he
was greeted by the ex-mayor, who
commented on the extreme dullnese
OF business The cash drawer was
opened and spying the few coins scat
tered around DR.. Bonds remarked:
Il know that an ex-mayor might be
guilty of knocking down but I'll
swan If I thought he would have
AIKEN It ALL" Dr.. Yeiser appreciated
he joke as much as anyone.

COURT MUST DO IT'S DUTY.

There is little encouragement for
the police, who have waited weeks to
catch a Sunday violator, to have the
police judge cut the fine down, after
leading the city attorney to believe
that a higher fine and costs havI
been assessed.
Last Sunday a druggist was ar
rested for selling 7iquor. and on mo-
tion of the city attorney a fine OF
$50 and costs was assessed. This
was shown by memorandum anu
the understanding of the city attor-
ney. The docket next day. however.
showed that the fine was made $40
and no costs and anyone can see that
"thirty" was first written and then
erased.
Unless Paducah secures a police
Judge, who will back up the police
and the prosecutor in their efforts to
stop Sunday lawlessness. preaching
reform will accomplish nothing.
We do not know what Influenced
Police Judge Cross to do this; but ii
was done and citizens must judge foi
themselves.

PEACE TERMS
MAY RESULT
DISASTROUSLY
Troops Being Rushed to AC-
oyapa Owing to Futility of
Coming Negotiations.

Managua, Nicaragua, Dec. %
General Estrada's evident intention
to insist upon peace terms that Pres
ident Madriz will be unable to accept
will result disastrously to the peace
conference in which the leaders of
the two factions will meet next Sat
urday, according to popular belief
expressed here today.
Estrada, 1t is reported, is unwill-
ing oaccept Madriz as president Of
Nicaragua, and regards him merely
as Zelaya's successor as commander
of the government army. He ap-
parently is determined to ignore Ma
driz's claims, and it is predicted that
he will refuse to lay down his arms
until after the coming election.
Madriz is so apprehensive OF the
futility of the coming peace negotia-
lions that he is rushing troops to
Acoyopa to intercept Estrada.

LETTER
Governor Benson in Receipt of
Many Very Unique
Communications.

Scores of anonymous letters are
received each month by Governor
Benson, in fact there is hardly a
day that passes by but that each mail
brings from two or three to a dozen
of this class of letters, and they are
becoming as thick as the vermin
that overspread the earth in the time
of Pharoah, and almost equally as
much of a source of annoyance.
The letters present for the con-
sideTation of the chief executive of
the state all manners of grievances
grievances which range all the
way from petty troubles to a solution
of the great problems of the state
and nation. From the great number
of letters received offering the gov
ernor advise as to his political move
ments, it is evident that he is the
possessor of hundreds of admirers,
who are sollcitous as to his political
welfare, and, from the great range
of the grievances presented. it is ey-
ident that great many people are
inclined to the belief that the COVER
nor is invested with supreme power
authority and power that extends
from that of a police magistrate TO
that invested in the great law MAX
ing body Of the land
All Kinds of Letters.
Letter after letter is received by
the governor cautioning him against
making such and such a political
movement, and then letters come
reprimanding him for having
made or failed to make such and
such a movement Hosts of the
letters contain grievances against
state officers, and ask that action be
taken with relation to them, and
others complain against judges
throughout the state, because their
decisions in certain litigation have
not been in accordance with their
views, and ask that they be removed.
Then letters come recting a pitiful
tale of wrongs suffered at the hands
Of some attorney--wrongs suffered
at the hands of physicians wrongs
for the most part petty and imagin-
ary, and request that the governor
see to 1t that laws are enacted COW
ering the subjects. and finally the let
ters offering sage advice as to the
of the great problems of the
1ay--the woman's suffrage; the
race suicide question; the conserva-

CHRISTMAS GALES;
HEAVY LOSS OE LIFE

Boston, Dec 29.-Several vessels
oundered and between forty and fifty
men were drowned during the gales
that swept the New England and
Canadian Atlantic Coast during
Christmas week, according to advices
from New Foundland and Nova SEQ
tfa.
The storms which eliminated in
a gale of almost hurricane proper
tions on Christmas night were gem
eral along this coast
More than a dozen vessels still
are missing and have not been heard
from since the storm. The fear that
many of them are lost is growing.
