HICKMAN FULTON COUNTY KENTUCKY THURSDAY,
Comet in West.

Last Saturday night was the first
time for two weeks that people OF
this section have been able TO see
the comet, and many Hickmanites
were on high places star-gazing.
The comet Is now conspicuous in
the western sky. moving half way a.
cross the entire heavens. passing a
little below Mars. Its head points
toward the ground and its tail ex-
tends upwards among the stars.
Day by day It will grow fainter and
In few more days. will not be WISH

gone to a place where comet would
look fainter than cream on the milky
way.

ing, few miles from town, was so
badly damaged that 1t win have to be
practically rebuilt. Walter Gray's
and Tom True's barns were unroofed
and one of True's horses injured.
Reports from other parts of the coun-
ty indicate that a number of barns,
fences. trees. etc, we're blown down
and crops considerably damaged. No
loss of life is reported.
Hickman's streets also suffered as
a result of the heavy down-pour of
rain.
Those who expect cheap living to
come very soon will find themselves
much mistaken before that time ar
rives. Everything which the people
have to sell is twice as expensive as
II was is years ago; and everything
that people have to buy is equally
as expensive. Notwithstanding the
farmers are paid high prices for hay
corn, meat, cattle and horses. yet
their profits are not out of reason any
more than what they should be. Cheap
living. in our opinion. is a thing Of
the past.

Check Swindlers.

Those persons who are frequently
asked TO cash checks should be on
their lookout against a swindle which
is being successfully worked else
where and which may crop out any
day In Hickman.
The alleged swindlers operate as
construction company and are sup
posed to be oil well drilling contract
ors. They have printed regular con-
tractors checks on banks which they
pretend to draw. There are thous-
ands OF such checks In circulation.
They are signed by a foreman and
by the treasurer of the company.
The checks are usually cashed by
merchants on Saturday nights and in
towns In which the bank on which
they are drawn is not located. This
gives the operator four or five days

Family Hoodooed.

According to old rivermen a strange
fatality seems to pursue the Pell
family and the recent 5altillo tragedy
has recalled II to mind.
When old Captain Pell, a famous
river pilot, and Ed Pell's grandfather
died he requested his five sons TO
stay away from the river. He seemed
to see In the river life a curse that
should pursue the Pell family. How
ever. all Of the five sons ran counter
to their fathers wishes and became
river pilots. Nothing happened to
that generation of Pells and the re-
quest of the old man was almost for
gotten.
In April 1895, the big steamer Mis-
souri, went aground In fog on the
Ohio near Wolf Greek Landing and
three people were drowned. James
Pell. Jr., Ed Pelrs brother. was at
the wheel when she went aground.
The accident was similar In many
ways to the Saltillo accident. At
that time old Captain Pell's prophesy
was remembered and much talk was
made of 1t.
When the Saltillo ran on the rocks
at Glenn Park, May IL, the death
scene at the old mans bedside was
again recalled to mind, and the ques-
ton was again asked, Does a curse
pursue the Pell family?"
Capt. Ed Pell's father. Capt. Jas.
Pell, was a pilot on the steamer Rob-
ert e. Lee during the famous race be-
tween that boat and the steamer
Natchez.
