SLOW PLAYING ON
PART OF PADUCAH
LOST GAME TO MARION, ILL.,,
TEAM.
Visitors Outpunted Home Boys and
Kept the Ball In Paducah
Territory.
LARGE CROWD WAS PRESENT

Slow playing enabled the Marion,
I'LL, football eleven to win from the
team of the Paducah Athletic clubs
team yesterday afternoon at League
park by a score of IL to 0. The
game was one of the cleanest and
best ever played on the local gridiron,
and was enjoyed by large crowd,
although the Paducah team was not
victorious. Both teams played hard,
and not until the second half was
either team victorious.
The first half uncovered some
pretty playing. Although the ball
was in Paducah's territory most of
the half, neither goal was ever in
great danger. The score ended 90
for the first half, and i'm the second
mined. For a while It seemed as IL
Paducah would score, but fumbles
gave losses, and Marion was playing
a hard game all the time. Punts
were resorted to frequently by both
teams and one one of Marion's punts
Wilson got the oval after Paducah
fumbled 1t and went over the goal
for a touchdown. Pillow kicked an
easy goal.
Paducab played desperately and
punted the ball in an effort to get it
near the Marion goal, but the SPLEEN
did work of Holland in returning the
punts forced the playing into Padu-
cah's territory Because of fumbles.
the last few minutes of play were on
Paducah's goal line. st. John was
called on to punt and Marion blocked
it. but Jones brought the ball back
to the line. st. John was called on
to punt again, but it was blocked the
second time and Webb fell on the
ball. Pillow kicked another easy
goal and the score was: Marion ~,
Paducah 0.
Holland, the Marion quarter back,

the broken fields was excellent. Luf-

first OF the game, but toward the last

and played a fast game. his punts
being good. Jones in left half played
an aggressive game and made several
hard tackles. Virgin at center recov-
cred the ball on fumbles several
times. Pillow, the visitors captain,
played a good game, besides his boot
was excellent.
1t was an old-fashioned game, as
neither team played an open style.

Legends of the
Chinese Walls.

Before resunng our journey ! asked
the governor of the inn about the. Long
Wall. He made answer thus.
"Chin Sbih fwang without doctrine
compelled the people to build it. He
walked his horse and examined the
boundary. Afterward there was the
husband of the Meng Chang woman.
Because he was building the wall he
was compelled to die in it. The Meng
Chang woman, weeping for her hus-
band, moved heaven and earth. The
10000 Ii long wall, with one cry, was
wept down."
In this village, untouched by civil.
cation, ignorant of the camera, where a
photograph OF a beautiful young lady
affrighted the beholders, many interest
ing legends about the wall were
gathered In brief some of them are as
follows Chin, borne triumphantly
across the empire on his horse OF
cloud stamped thrice every Ii, and on
each crushed spot sprang up a tower.
Chin was a broken, bad man. The
wall was erected in one day, being 3d.
600 Ii long. 1t was ruined when one
woman gave a scream, and it collapsed
from the sea to Tibet There we're
eighteen suns when Chin built; the
men were kept working so long that
grass had time to grow in the dust
which lodged on their heads. The men
worked so long that they fell asleep
and woke up patriarchs. Chin had
mammoth shovels that threw up Ii OF
wall at scoop; the men were II feet
tall and broad in proportion nowadays
men are small and could not build the
wall. A god looked down from heaven
and saw the people being thrown into
the wall for not doing the work, so he
came down and gave thread to the
workmen, who put it round their wrists
to increase strength. When the king
! found out he took this magic thr' anc

Price Of Flour Advancing.

As a result of the speculation in
wheat which has been going on all
winter there has been season of
high prices i'm that foodstuff and the
prices, from all accounts, have been
held up for a longer period than
has ever been known before. 1t has
been a great gamble on the part of
the spectators made possible and
successful by the fact that there is
a general crop shortage, and rapid
ly increasing number of consumers
of wheat bread. 1t is estimated that
the crop shortage in the United
States will not be less than 0,00O,-
600 bushels, but this would not be
a serious matter were it not for the
fact that the crops of other wheat
growing countries are also short.
Therefore the price of -four has
advanced with the price of wheat,
which meals, of course, higher
prices for bread in manly places.
In England" remarks the New
York World, where it was once
said with truth that a penny added
to the cost of loaf vas instantly
reflected i'll the statistics of starva-
ton, the public has had notice that
bread is to follow wheat and flour
a policy which cannot fail to bring
distress to Millions"
We are not likely to have very
much distress in this country as a
result of the manipulation of the
wheat market, but should the unex-
pected happen and there is a ma
terial adyance in wheat bread, the
masses of the people can turn to
corn which is all excellent substi-
tute, though the jewellers in crowd
eel cities are, as rule, ignorant of
the fact. 1t is true that corn at the
present time is high as compared
with former prices, but it is abund-
ant and in its relation to wheat
cheap. Moreover bread made by
mixing eggs and lard with batter
of corn meal, is not only highly nu-
tritious but very pleasing to the pal
ate, and in the rural districts is pre-
ferred by many to bread made of
wheat hour.-States.
