OEHLSCHLAEGER & WALKER DRUGGISTS Fifth and Broadway, WRITTEN AT RANDOM. If there is any indication that a person is contented in this life, it is the fact that he has remained at home nearly all through bis career, whether it be eventful or otherwise, And if this be any indication of contentment Uncle Jack Dotson ought to bea mighty contented man, “Une Jack and his wife, ‘*Aunt llie,’’ have been married sixty-one ears, and they have spent their long and useful life at Dukedom, Graves Nineteen children have «l their union, but the most re- ble thing about them is that ** Jack has not been four miles from Dukedom since a few years after the civil war. More ex- plicitly, for over twenty-five years he has never been farther away from home than four miles, And the last time he was any distance from home was when he came to Padecah over 25 years ago. The couple are enjoying good health, and are among the oldest people in their community and res- pected by all. 1 1 1 ‘The authorities are generally con ceded to be right in taking steps to abolish the nefarious custom of fe wales visiting saloons, or the so- called restaurants, connected with them, which is practically the same thing, and equally as demoralizing. In Paducah no lady would dare ven- ture into such places, unless she re- sides in the building. It would not be considered ladylike here for woman to go into a seloon, especially for the purpose of drinking, or into the restaurant connected with them. Hence as a rule the only women who trequent sach places are disreputable ters—creating a trade that few saloon keepers care to cater There aie resorts in the city where these soulless sirens have hitherto held full sway with im. punity. ‘They go there either to pray on the hapless victims who drop in for a drink or lunch, or else to hold bigh carnival until the midnight hour, with male prostitutes, and keep the locality in 9 covstant turmoil with their disgraceful orgies until dawn. It is at these unserypulous parasites that the law is directed, not at the saloon keeper. ‘The only saloon keepers who have evinced any desire to cortest the validity of the law are those who pander to such patronage. The authorities are weary of it alt, and intend to break it up. If such females desire to drink, they can send to the saloons for what they want. If their male admirers desire to meet them, they can meet them somewhere The careers of those combi nation bawdy houses, saloons and gambling dens baye ended, and the lime is approaching when only @ le- gitimate saloon business may be car- ried on in Prducah, Reputable saloon-keepers will hail the arrival of this time with glad- ness, for the kind of resorts the po- lice are now trying to break up are the kind that have brought the sa- loon business foto disvepute, Women must no longer be used as an attrac. tion to saloon trade, or as a feature of diversion for the customers who frequent questionable places. A man "tran a saloon, bawdy house and gambling resort under one license ander the new law, 8 else 3 Capt. “Billy”? Purcell, the yeteran cailroad conductor who is new visit- ing relatives here, has been on the road for over thirty yeurs, and he was never in but two train robberies, hold-ups.”” The first time was on the old N., N. & M.Y., now the [Illinois Central, when he first went on the poad, years The train was held up be. cween Pryorsburg and Wingo, below Mayfield, and looted by robbers, 3 many people remember the ed quite a sen- sation at the tle. For years Capt. Fareell punched tickets on the railroad without an- other such exciting incident as a robber: bat the other day he bad his second experience, on the Santa Fe, where he is now employed. The train suddenly stopped three miles from Dallas, Tex., and in a few mo- ments it dawned on him that it was being held np. Cramming his five gold watch down his ghoe top he rushed through the traia and shoyted jthat robbers were aboard, and warned everybody to secrete thejr valuables, Women began hiding their pocket- books, watches and other yglualies under seats and in satchels and grips, some of them tearing their diamond, ear rings out in their fronsled.basie. ee + In a short time 9 fuasillade was heard outside, and upon investiga- tion it was learned that a posse of of- ficers, who had been apprised of the intended robbery by an anonymous letter, kad arrived on the scene. They had placed little credence in the letter and for this reason were d quent in the matter of arriving, and failed to capture the robbers. The fireman was shot and killed, avd the engineer was shot and bai since died, The object of the dar- ing bandits was to get into the ex- press car, but they found that the doors were completely barricaded with bicycles shipped to Mallar, and they could not effect an entranee The express messenger, when he per- ceived that the train was being robbed, turned down the light and crouched down in a corner of the ear where he could not be seen. Capt. Purcell wants no more train: robberies in his. Walking with one’ watch in his shoe is not by any means pleasant past-time. tr? antain avenue has become pository for kittens, and the inhab tants fear that if the practice of drop- ping undesirable felines out in that vicinity is not stopped the locality will soon become overrun with tab- hies. Scores of them are left every week to die or wander iuto some friendly yard for protection. Yesterday afternoon two ladies drove up in a buggy and began shak- ing their lap robe. An inhabitant, after they drove away, seeking to ap. pease his curiosity, went over to take a look, and there found about fifteen creeping kittens, with their eyes closed. INTERNAL REVENUE RVICE The United States civil se commission announces that an exam- ination will be held for the internal revenue service in this city on some date between the Ist and 15th of Oc- tober, 1898, All persons who desire to be examined should apply to the secretary of the board of examiners at Owensboro, Ky., for application blanks and full information relative to the scope of the examination.
