I would have beeu on the detail that fired the shots that ended their lives had It not been for Dr. Brooks, He was orderly-sar- gent of our company, and when or- dered to furnish a detachment of men took them from the com- lly.

In fact it could be used nowhere to bet- ter advantage, 7 ice man, who was all smiles last week, is now distraught with dis- pleasure. The cold wave has bad unmistakable effect on his business, and fifty pounds of ice, left on the door step, will not resolve itself be- fore the cook or porter arrives, into a mere damp spot during this sort of weather. ‘Ihe soda-water map, too, is not bubbling over with satisfaction and happiness as he was a few days ago, for with the fall of the mercury there bas been a very perceptible fail in bis trade. But then, as one solilli- quized yesterday, ‘‘it’s all in a sum- mer-time.’” o.° . Col. Jobn Van Culin Is just back Vashington and several eastern watering places, where he has been “living high.’ In Washington he experienced the nov- elty of rubbing up against greatness, having met most of the great men at the Capital. The great men were courtevus to him, and he reports that they all chew Lactic Pepsin. He attended the funeral of the late Sen- being able to masticate Lactic Pep- h has not yet been intro- duced into Paradise. In New York Col. Van Culin was presented with a fine South Ameri- can Cactus cane, which id to be the only one of its kind in the United States. o° An interesting case is now before Justice Winchester. A prominent young married lady of the west end was warranted a few days ago for poisoning her neighbor's chickens, It appears, however, that the prose- cution is based merely on a misunder- standing of the facts. The lady's husband claims that he put out the poison for rats, and notified the neighbors of what be had done, in order that they might keep thei chickens at home. If this be true, the warrant will likely be dismissed, as there was no malice in the case. Some people, however, claim that the gentleman even had a right to go so far as to put out poison on bis own premises for the sole purpose of killing the chickens should they en- croach on his property. Chickens occasion almost as much unfriendli- ness among neighbors as the town cow. *° Quite a number of Paducah people ere branching out as song writers, The latest melody is one composed by Mr. Irvin S.
