He was a well-known }aad much respected friend of the mayor, &® Hibernian by birth, He doffed his hat as he entered the port- of the chief executive’ ry (1 no doubt as he sank into a seat, thought the time when he used to threaten a certain barefooted boy, then before him as Paducah’s highest ofticer, with bob-goblins and all that sort of things, for enjoying his pears and grapes without permission. The mayor smiled in his nsual happy way, as the old fellow, with a patronizing air, elevated his feet to the table, squirted a few pints of ‘long-green’’ two feet over the spit- toon, watched it whirl and eddy on the floor, then shifted his quid and remarked : “Chimmie, ye'v played bill thim police appintmenis!"’ ‘Is that so?’ asked the mayor, the smile slightly fading. ‘How is that?”’ Sure, an’ Chimmie, me b'ye, whoile ye’y appinted a few, y’ev dis- appinted a dom site, ye hov!"’ was the reply. The mayor laughed, and so did his friend, H - wid ‘1 had an experience yesterday,’” remarked a prominent doctor this | morning, ‘that I guess is almost un- precedented in the medi anni Paducah, This was an D where a colored man insisted on pay- ing me more movey than I charged him. ) ‘Ile entered my office and had me /perform a slight operation that did not rejuire more than a few minutes.

Is the negro in the city entitled to privileges that his brother in the country or smaller towns is not entitled to? Is the man or woman in the country or smaller towns better, and entitled to more protection than the whites in the cities? In the street cars the races are much more closely associat- ed than on the railroad cars, and yet no complaint is made in that direc- tion. It has been held by the highest court in the land tbat this law Is inoper- ative so far as the interstate passen- ger is concerned, and the negroes from every other state in the Union may pass through Kentucky in any car they prefer, while our own negroes, who, in many instances, are bound to us by ties of affection, must be huddled into « car by themselves. The old common law has come down to us through hoary centuries. It is the conpentration of the wisdom and conservatism of many genera- tions. In its benign provisions, no rule is incorporated that is in keep- ing with this objectionable statute. It bas remained for the civilization of the Nineteenth century to discoyer that which has escaped all others, and to enact a jaw thoroughly at war with precedent and in contempt of every privilege of citizenship. that threatens to tear your throat Into shreds—how are you going to stop it?

THR NEW RECEPTION AND GERMAN For the second time since the Yule Tide festiyities began, the Odd Fellows’ hall has been the scene of a brilliant german and reception. ‘The last of these was given last evening by the Ideal Society Club, by enter- taining about one hundred and fifty people in a way that would suit the most fastidious. The hall was beau- titully decorated with pink and pot- ted plants, saying nothing of those human flowers, compared to which, the angelic host of the upper world is a little higher, and in whose pres- ence the coarser qualities of the stern- er sex are melted and moulded into those finer sensibilities of the noble, the dignified and thé social. A fault- tess four-course luncheon was served, Many pretty costumes were in evi- dence, and while these happy sbrin- ere were joyfully following the whirl of music’s mystic maze there was pre- Sented the scene of a veritable flower gerden. Hilleman’s full orchestra furnished music that few with daz zling and painted wings. It was a grand affair. BThe Gayolistics will meet at the residence of Melville W.
