The members seemed pleased at the courtesy, and have assured our congressman that should foreign complications not arise, they will pay Paducah a visit in the near future. Congressman Wheeler expresses gratification that the invitation was tendered in an official form, and sig- nified a belief that the great commit- tee will certainly visit Paducah unless a war with Spain should prevent its contemplated tour. him. The owner telegraphed Mar- shal Collins Saturday to arrest the fugitive if he came here, A warrant was sworn out against this man of many aliases, and be made no defense. Mr. Martin testi- fied that the chain securing his skiff was cut, and the boat, valued at $21, stolen. About a mile and a half further down the river a store was broken into and robbed. The pris- oner said his real name was David- son, and that he started to Illinois to work, and had no way to come ex- cept by borrowing the skiff. He took it, intending to return it, and was willing to return to Tennessee without a requisition. Davidson is suspected not only of having broken into the store below Mr. Martin’s home, but is said to be a fugitive from Dover, where he was incarcerated in jailon a charge of stealing some money, a watch, etc. @ Davidson, at the advice of a local lawyer, afterwards changed his mind about going back to Tennessee with- out a requisition and will likely this afternoon be carried to Gilbertsville to be tried for stealing tbe skiff. Today Mayor Lang received a communicati told commiseration for the poor lady clerks. He says that while the coun- cil is legislating on other matters, it ought to legislate a little for the ben- efit of the poor suffering creatures who are employed in stores and com- pelled to stand on their feet for hours at a time without an intermis- sion. He then offers an ordinance which presents that no female clerks shall be required to work for longer than eight hours a day, and stools shall be furnished for them by the manage- ment, The mayor was greatly amused at the would-be benefactor’s letter, al though the intention of the writer is good. A DAYLIGHT HANGING, Will Tutt, the Brutal Mayfield Wife Murderer, Must Expiate His Crime on the Gallows. Henry Bradshaw, a Ballard county negro, was @ greatly surprised indi- vidual yesterday afternoon when Officer Hoyer drove up to him in a wagon, dropped the lap robe which concealed his brass and blue, and threw a pistol up in the astonished darkey’s face. ‘The latter, who was sitting on a fence beyond the Per- kins’ creek bridge on the Cairo road, threw up his hands and fell back- wards, Len Calhoun, a colored boy, was in the back of the wagon, while Sam Holland, who had volunteered the use of the vehicle, drove. Calhoun claimed Bradshaw beat him over the head three times with a poker. Bradshaw never recovered from the fright occasioned by the suddeg dis- play of the officer's pistol. Calhoun explained today that he and Brad- shaw were joking when Bradshaw got mad and struck him in the head. The defendant made no denial, and was fined $20 and costs, The three Greer boys, colored, and Claude Pruett, white, who were charged with destroying sewer pipes, were today discharged by JudgeSan- ders, owing to a lack of evidence. The Jury Had the Jase for Three Days—Day of Execution Not Fixed. A verdict was this morning reach- ed by the jury in the case against Will Tutt, colored, at Mayfield, charged with killing his wife last summer, The jury had the case for three days and nights, and the verdict was no surprise, owing to the atrocity of the crime. Tutt shot his wife three times and killed her last summer because she wanted to goto Columbus, Ky., to attend a game of baseball. She died almost instantly. He has narrowly escaped lynching several times, the last being when Dick Allen was hanged at Mayfield for burglary a few weeks ago. It was then only by persuasion that the mob was induced to spare him. Had the verdict been anything except the death penalty the John Hart, a moulder from Si. Louis, was charged with petty lar- ceny. Peter Arnold, who boards at the Tennessee house, on East Court street, was awakened Saturday night by aman who got into bed with him. The man was Hart, who said be was looking for work and was out of money. The next morning Hart left and Arnold misseu $1.40, his spectacles and a plug of tobacco. Some of the money, the spectacles and the tobacco were feund on Hart, who claimed he worked for the money and found the other articles, He was held to answer inthe sum of $200 and went to jail. lynched. The day of Tutt’s execution will be set when he is sentenced.
