Memory Of Old Wound, That
Disfigures. Makes Him
Wary.
Deb Mason, Engineer on Ken
lucky, Is Victim.
TROUBLE FOLLOWS FISHING

II was the memory of an old fight,
a memorial OF which he wears on his
face today In the shape OF dishgur-
ing scar. that caused Pat Lamoore TO
shoot and Kill Deb Mason, In La
more's saloon, Third and Norton
streets. last night. Lamoore said
Mason was advancing on him with a
knife. and remembering the former
encounter, he would not take any
chances.
Lamoore's whole nature was chang
ed by the disnguring knife cash which
Mason administered TO Lamore's face
and neck In December. 1907. Pre-
vious to that time Lahore was
natty dresser. but afterwards he
cared nothing for dress and his man
ner changed.
The men had been friends since
the cutting, aud yesterday afternoon
they went fishing About GAS O'Clock
last night Mason returned to Ia
moore's saloon and the shooting took
place. Witnesses are reticent. but
the claim is made that Mason drew
knife and was advancing on Lamoore
who was behind the bar. Lamoore
fired two shots. one striking Mason
just below the thorax and a little TO
the right. A second shot pierced the
heart. After the shooting Mason
staggered through some swinging
doors into the rear OF the saloon and
then out OF a side door. where he fell
on a brick pavement between the
building and a fence.
Immediately after the shooting La
moore went TO his home. sis South
Third street. and was sitting on the
porch. when Patrolman Henry SIN
gerry placed him under sTTsst. lie
asked permission to return 20 the
saloon. and after giving his bartender
orders to keep the saloon open. he
accompanied the patrolman TO the
city hall. Lamoore was reticent about
the shooting and his only statement
was TO the eject. Henry, you know
he cut me once. and | did not want
TO take any chances" LAmoore was
placed In the county jail. but he de-
clined to make any statement about
the shooting.
Mason was second engineer on the
steamer Kentucky. which arrived In
pert yesterday. His father, AL Mason.
Is chief engineer on the Kentucky.
He has one brother, Roy Mason. now
serving in the army. He was 80
years old.
Iamoore has been in Paducah IS
years. having come from Saginaw,
Mich. and for several years was a
carver at the Paducah Furniture
company lie has been a saloon
keeper about IA months Fred AMI
George Lahore are brothers.
Mason never uttered a word after
the shooting. The inquest will be
held Monday afternoon at O'Clock
by Coroner Frank Eaker.
Drs J. ID. Robertson. Horace Riveru
and b. l.. Bradley were summoned TO
attend Mason, but they found him
already dead.
The funeral OF Mason will be held
tomorrow afternoon at o'clock from
the residence. 522 Tennessee street,
with services by the Rev. ]. w. Brun-
er. The burial will take place in

Dog Ordinance.

1t is not generally known that, al
though the city charges license for
dogs, and sporadic efforts have been
made to collect it,, the city now has
no efficient ordinance, authorizing
anything to be done with dogs, when
the license is not paid. Il Is part of
the chaotic condition of Paducah's
police code, attributable to general
councils. failing to provide for the
re-enactment OF the code.
Councilmen have been notified
that two ordinances will be introduc-
ed, one prohibiting the keeping of
vicious dogs. and the other providing
for the disposition of unclaimed
cannes. The second ordinance au-
thorizes the chief of police to collect
unlicensed dogs, either by sending
around wagon or paying a premium
their impounding. sale after non-re-
demption within three days, and
slaughter in case they are not sold at
public cutlery.
Paducah is overrun with dogs cf
both sexes. and from every section OF
the city, complaints are heard. Soma
neighborhoods are outraged by the
presence OF hordes of dogs, and as
summer time approaches the danger
from rabies will increase.
If the general council performs its
duty in passing the ordinance. Chief
Collins will go to work in earnest
gathering up and disposing OF such
dogs as whose owners do not value
them sufficiently high to pay the IL
cense.

GRAHAMvILLE OFFICE
SHOULD BE RETAINED.

Because Graham is located on a
rural route some of the postonice off,
Gals have considered abolishing the
office and submitted the question to
Postmaster Frank Fisher, who dis
agreed with the plan. Mr.. Fisher is
in favor of continuing the postoffice,
as too many people are served there
to abolish it and depend on the rural
route carrier.

Reciprocity Pieases Taft.
Washington, April 3.-President
Taft was informed OF the senate's
program for the administration of
the new tariff bill. 1t provides that
the minimum tariff shall apply to all
countries for one year. At the end
of that time the maximum rates will
go into effect against all countries
which is the opinion of the executive
are giving the United States their
pest tarin rates.
The president is strongly in favor
of this idea of the application of the
maximum and minimum principle and
1t is believed that 1t will be the plan
finally agreed upon. The plan of adj
ministering minimum and maximum
rates in the house bill as II now
stands is said to be more indefinite
and less effective than the one pro-
posed by the senate finance commit
tee.
The difference in maximum and
minimum rates proposed by the sem
ate committee is twenty per cent.
The plan governing the enforce
ment of the rates gives the execu-
tive complete power of inquiry and
decision. The supreme court of the
United States In the case involving
the constitutionality Of the Mckinley
tariff act. decided that congress, by
similar method of administration
was in no wise delegating its author
ity to the executive.
Congress will fix the absolute rates
which will apply under circumstances
which 1t prescribes, and no legisla-
tive discretion will rest with the
president.
Taft seems to be more satisfied just
now than at any other time as to the
tariff outlook. especially in the SEN
ate where grave disasters had been
predicted.

Merchants say the weather man
alone is responsible for the slight de-
crease In the bank clearings this week
as the chilly mornings have not in
duced the people to think OF their
Easter clothes. Only one more week
remains before the day for the ex-
hibit of the spring styles, and with
a few warm smiles from the sun the
merchants expect rush of trade for
next week. The weather is a factor
in trade, and the chilly mornings lead
man to wearing his overcoat and in
this way covering up his winter suit.
However. the merchants are not
Kicking, as one retail clothing dealer
said his business had started of we'll.
and many Of his customers had laid
away Their Easter suits. The millln-
cry shops have been busy, and the
shipments of hats into Paducah from
the eastern markets has been remark
able. Scarcely a train has arrived
in Paducah for a month without hav-
ing shipment of hats.
The farmers are busy with the
spring planting, and for this reason
the stores may account for decrease
in trade as the farmer does most of
his purchasing while inclement wealth
er prevents him from his work on the
farm. With the combination of bust
ness and circus the county was well
represented today, aud retail trade
was given stimulation.
