yesterday afternoon between Benton
and the b. b. Hook baseball team at
Benton. Three innings of the game
were played, when rain stopped the

grounds practicing until 5 o'clock,
but the Benton players refused TO
return to the park. The Benton
players claim that II was the Hook
team that refused to play after The

AT THE BAR
MEMBERS OF THE BAR ARE
CALLED TO ACCOUNT.
One Lawyer Fined "Three Bucks" for
Contempt He Showed the
Police Court.

Seemingly disregard OF Paducah
lawyers in obeying the instructions
Of the court resulted in Police Judge
d. A. Cross mounting his ''higl
horse" this morning when one attor
ney was fined SO for contempt Of
court.
Nearly every case In which the com
monwealth was ready for trial the at
torneys for the defense were not
ready and asked for contlnuances.
The court was not in the best of hu-
NOR any way. and angered by a re-
Election from his severe toothache
last week he assailed the members of
the legal fraternity. Ever since Ii
cense Inspector Robert Hicks has
sworn out warrants against lawyers
for failure to pay their city license,
the cases have been continued time
and again. One attorney, who had
never been present at the calling of
his case, was fined SO. Other cases
were reset for next Monday morning.
Judge Cross also gave instructions
to Chief of Police Singery to see that
all witnesses and officers are on hand
in the court room promptly at 9 a.
m, and that the bar be cleared of
spectators. Heretofore the police
men have been compelled to stand in
the bar on account of regular loung-
arz taking nOess,ncSion of the seats an
side the bar. The court announced
he was tired of dlllydallying along
with people and his court is not
plaything.
