YARD OF FACES. Prives Reasonable for GOOD work, L. P, BALTHASAR, 4:3 U'way, Under Panase House WRITTEN AT RANDOM, ‘As the train leaving here at 7:50 o'clock in the morning will carry | mail after today the ‘Reyister’s’ vir- jculation will be increased at Calvert City, Grand Rivers, Kuttawa and Eddyville, and its canvassers will visit those points early this week.’’ The above, from yesterday’s “Register,’’ solves the mystery of why it advocated the mail service between Louisville and Fulton. It raised a great kick when the service | was abandoned several months ago, | and now, by the above, proves that it was actuated in its boasted ‘‘de- fense of the interests of the me: chants’? by purely selfish motives, and wanted the service simply so its daily repository of fiction could be | distributed up the Lilineis Central by | Uncle Sam's agents. By the way, the ‘Register’? has a large ircula- tion. As the news ‘‘butches’’ on the railroads say, the papers circu- late up to C ‘entral City on one train, and back to Paducah on the other. Great seller, it is! A. new secret order has been added to the already long list. It is called “The Ancient and Exalted Order of the Elephant,” and has its founda- tion in circus and thestrical circles The initial meeting was held a few days ago at Detroit, Mich., after the progress of a «careful develop- ment. The grand lodge has received a certificate of incorporation from the state of Wisconsin, and charters are to be issued to the ‘‘herds,’’ as local orders are to be called. Permanent headquarters have been established at Janeville, Wis., and there are already 400° applications for mem- bership to the parent lodge. The symbol of the order is an elephant, 9 button to be worn by the members, having. on it the dgure of an ele- phant with upraised trunk, the let- ters A. E. O. E. being subscribed on the nket This order is something similar to the “Owls,’’ whose symbol is an owl; the ‘*Hoo-Hoos,’’ whose sym- bol is a black cat; the ‘‘Red Men,’’ ‘Elks,"’ etc, The local divisions of these orders are known as ‘‘nests,’” tribes,"’ and by” similarly appropri- ate titles. “Shooting the chutes’? has become very popular in Paducah, especially among the children. In a number of back yards, should one care to in vestigate, he would find many*‘shoot- the-chutes’’ one of the most ingenious of which is that constructed by Master Glenn Smith, the bright little son of Mr. E., W Smith at Eighth and Madison streets, which is quite a marvel, as well as atiraction in the neighborhood Many episodes in their everyday life can the little folks compare to shooting the chutes. The other day one little miss was sitting on the edge of the bath tub, when she lost her equilibrium and slid down into the yawning depths of soapsuds. She on a small scale, said; ‘Looky hyar, we'uns ain't bavkerin’ arter sendin’ vo man off fram sech a lovely wife, bootif home, an’ three putty chilern, Ye'v gota darned site more’n eny uv the rest uy us, ef ye’re tellin’ the trat an’ ef ye'll take # fule’g advice ye'll sot rite down in that there bootiful home an’ stay with them three putty chilern uv yourn.”’ The lawyer became indignant and told the old scalawag that he didn’t When the Doctor Orders Wine you should get the{best.
