One of the worst nuisances on earth, according to an old hotel man, is the check fiend—the man who al- | ways writes a check when he owes a man, no matter for what amount If he comes in and stays over all night he will, just before leaving, with a lordly air, take out his check book and write a check for $1.00 or $1.25, and think the hotel man is doing honor to himself to take it. |Since the war revenue stamps have : a necessary evil, the check fiend is more a nuisance than ever. |e always bas bis check book, but jseldom carries revenue stamps with |him, hence the hotel man has to fur- nish him with one There is one well known man who ‘ome resides in another city and often }comes to Paducah. | When he does he usually stops at a hotel, and never fails to e a check, He often writes them for one dollar, and no |sarcastic remark the thorougbly dis- Jeusted clerk can make phases” him He continues to come—and write his one dollar checks.

Thirty Jor forty were returned, and doubly that number investigated There was an era of dullness among jthe sports during the sitting, but now most of them have returned to town, and resumed the even tenor of their way. There'll not be another grand jury until December: 4 jury was in ses- as long gular business, however, indictments And speaking of the grand jary, it is going the rounds that some of the indictments found =k it will not stick. Itis claimed that one or two members are not housekeepers, a3 re- quired by law, In fact, at least one of them is boarding. Some of the Jindictments have already stuck and the accused convicted, but no cob- test was made on the above grounds. | In other cases, it is said, a fight will be made when they come to trial Two or three years a case was thrown our of court on account of ago one of the members not being a housekeeper. : ae em Mayor Lang has a comical clerk in his drug store. He used to part his hair in the middle, but now wears the ‘serease’? on the side, The change was thus brought about: One day not long ago a darkey entered the es- tablisbment to wake s purchase, The young man was standing bebind the counter, with only his head visible above the show case. The darkey walked back, looked uneasily at the clerk with his slick, plastered bair, parted io the center, and started out. The mayor chanced to be in, and intercepted him before he reached the door, to wait on him. The darkey said he didn’t beheve he wanted anything, but at this juncture the clerk with the bifurested hirsute endowment emerged from be- hind the show case and became en- tirely visible. ‘The darkey grinned, ‘1 wants some medicine for bowel trouble,”’ he said, a8 bis grin broad- ened, seen dat young man dar, and fought he waz a gal—he hab his a'r parted so funny, IT doan’ lak to ax a lady fer bowel mediciae, yo" koow, The delicacy of feeling exhibited by the customer had no apparent ef- fect on the young man, however. He never parted his bair in the mid. ne youth was in the rear of the establishment the other day, i busying himself with bis early morny , {ing duties, when the mayor heard ao awful crash from behind the pre- scription case, followed by a doleful x}aud prolonged, ‘Oh, Lordy!" He thought the boy was killed and rasbed back to render all necessary assistance to the corpse. He found him bending hysterically over a 8) bottle of chloroform, which bad been utterly demolished. The boy was not overcome by the fumes of the drag, but by fear of baying lorenes lesale Agen ruined himself over the loss of it. He was told to never mind the bottle, as the druggist’s reliet at finding him unburt was suflicient to compensate him for the loss of the chloroform Some of the telegraph messengers haye discovered a new form of diver+ sion, which borders on scientific in- vestigation. The customary pastime of telegraph messengers is reading dime novels, if the comie papers are to be relied upon, but the Paducah messenger boy is nothing if not un- conventional, Then, he has read all the dime novels,anyhow, and most of the nickle ones, ‘The new diversion with which they now occupy their spare time is extermi- nating the somewhat bounteous crop grasshoppers that infest the city. 4 they do by means. of the switch in the telegraph office, which veryone knows who has ever touched one, is heavily charged with electricity. They place the insect on the board and watch his terpsichorean exhibitions as the electricily gets onto bis carves. After he has turned his toes to the daisies,and apparently dead; they lay him aside and see him gradually come to life, while the ex- periment is tried on another unforta nate victim.

He had a ministerial appearance, and just as he had run the gauntlet of the colored Jehus and express drivers who haunt the vicinity, one of the latter **crowed. It was a pretty fair imitation of the chanticleer, and was immediately taken up and echoed all along the line by the others, who appeared to take a peculiar delight in the diversion. The parson, if he really was one, looked very much embarassed, but did not deign to look around, The chorus of crows followed him, and did not cease until he reached the corner, and after once looking re- vengefully at his tormentors, disap- peared, A gentleman who happened to wit- ked one of the ness the incident drivers what they meant by ‘‘crow- ing’ at the dignified looking pedes- trian. «We cotched him stealin’ chickens one night,’ was the laughing reply “Oh, that's no sin,’’ rejoined the gentleman. “Yes, boss,’? was the answer, * dat niggah got caught.’ ae a Judging from the expressions from Third Kentucky boys who have beev home on furloughs, there is every prospect of being sent to Cubs on garrison duty when the weather comes colder, and the Spanrards sent home. The boys are mostly in favor of returning home, now that there is no prospect of more fighting. but True, the hardshivs they had to formerly endure are things of the past, but the novelty of camp life has worn off, and they do not care about prolonging it. There has been some talk about the understanding that they were to be given their «is charges at the conclusion of the war, and a great many of them went into the army with that impression, and ave now complaining because they cannot secure their release. There is no obligation on part of the gov- ernment to release them now, bow ever, it is claimed by some, in the first place because the war in not ne- cessarily over, and will not be, liter- ally, until peace is ratified and all differences adjusted. Then, the en- listment obligation says ‘“‘for two years unless sooner discbarged,’’ if reports are correct, and this does not make it incumbent on the goverment to release them until it gets ready but simply makes it optional with the wilitary authorities.

Hundreds of Metho- dists will be in Paducah during the conference session, and this will mean slaughter to the inhabitants of many a henvery, and the ministers, who are well acquainted with the old-time way the public has enjoyed a joke on their appetite for fowl, in the meantime will have a feast of such hospitality a8 only the people of this locality are capable. Sessions of the conference will be held esch forenoon, leaying the af- ternoon for the work of committees ‘There will be in the neighborhood 100 ministers in attendance.

The character of the preacher will be passed upon, and the individual work of each re- ported in open conference. The conference will be presided over by Rt. Rev. M. B. Salter, bishop, known as one of the strong- est and most beloved of bishops. At the close of the conference an- nouncements will be made of ap- m- ely pointments for preachers for th ing year. No one can say pos what changes are to be made, but the preachers must take the positions ap- pointed for them by the bishop. ‘The Episcopal address, by Bishop Salter, will be delivered Wedgesday morning, In this address the public always has a deep interest and it will = at at the hour Other be hard to obtain 9 when it is to be delivered. important addresses will be those on ‘*Education’’ and ‘‘ Missions.’” There will be receptions from time to time to relieve the mind of the care of what promises to be a busy session, There will be hundreds of visitors from neighboring towns, and our city will be overflowing with strangers, At the Sunday school exercises at the A, M.
