The Constitution Restored.

President Taft has ordered the re-
turn OF the constitution to the execu-
tive Office.
When he took charge of the ma
fion's affairs there was no copy OF
the historic document at hand. From
noon on Thursday, March 4, until
night; all day Friday, and all day
Saturday, until after p. m, the af-
fairs OF the administration were con-
Quoted without the assistance, the
guidance, or even the presence of the
sacred instrument. At 4:14 the
president happened to want the con-
stitution TO look up the subject of in
auguration day. It could not be
found either on the presidential desk
or In the presidential bookcase. Ex-
Secretary Loeb, who happened to be
in the presidents Office at the time
the sudden search was instituted,
hustled out into his old room and was
gone a long time.
They didn't need the constitution
here under the last administration
Mr.. President remarked one of
President Taft's visitors. The presi-
dent laughed heartily and checked a
remark that came TO his lips.
''Ive got ii. Mr.. President" cried
Loeb, rushing breathless into the
room. you see | knew where II
was to be found. 1 had it in my
keeping, for had to use It IL others
didn't"
Taking the sacred document in his
hand. the president held II aloft and
announced that it should never, never
leave the room again.
II now reposes in a drawer in the
presidential desk within easy reach.

JOINT DEBATE
WILL BE ARRANGED WITH THE
CAIRO HIGH SCHOOL.
Principal w. II. Sugg, of Paducab
High, Conceives the Happy
Idea.

Plans are under way for a joint
debate between representatives of the
lPaducah High school and the Cairo
High school. The agreement has been
closed practically, although no date
has been arranged, but the debate
will be held the last of April or the
first of May. The debate will be Oh
some topic of the day, and a good
interest is expected to be aroused as
the rivalry between schools has al
ways been keen.
Prof. w. II. Sugg conceived the
idea of having the schools meet in a
debate as well as athletic contests
and wrote a letter to the principal
of the school, A reply has been re-
ceived, saying that the students OF
the Cairo school favor the plan, and
there is every belief that the debate
will go through. Three speakers viii
be selected to represent each school.
The debate will be held In the High
school In this city. but a large fol-
lowing OF Cairo people will be ex-
pected to come here. Further plans
on the debate will be arranged at
once, and the debate between the
schools probably will be made an an
nual one.

WAITING IN VAIN
MRS. ETA REEDER REMAINS "a
HOURS AT STATION.
Husband Said He Was Going Up
Town But He Did Not Come Back
To Her.

Nearly "a hours since she had seen
her husband, Mrs. Eta Reeder. of
Central City, was taken to the police
station this morning by Patrolman
Fred Merry, who found the woman,
in the waiting room OF the Union
station. She. had been at the station
since Sunday morning about O'Clock
and was a stranger in the city. At
noon she was given transportation
back to her home by the city, while
the police are at work trying to
locate her husband. b

morning on the fast train, No. 1913.
from Central City, and were going
to Harrisburg, III. Reeder is a tim
Der workman and had secured a posi-
ton there. About O'Clock they went
TO restaurant near the station ana
ate breakfast. They were waiting for
the $3.50 O'Clock train. About s
O'Clock Reeder left his wife, saying
that he was going down into the city
hut he would return before train
time. Since then she has not seen
him. and all yesterday she waited at
the station, thinking. perhaps. he had
been lost in the city, but would find
his way back to the station.
Last night she remained at the
station and appealed to the police 1
who failed to locate the missing hus
band. His wife stated Reeder had
$50 when he left. She was without
money, but kind hearted restaurant
people gave her dinner and supper
yesterday.
Reeder is described as being 39l
years old, of ordinary build. His
four front teeth are gold. The couple |
has been married eleven months.
