A street car company suffers per- haps more than any other corporation from the passage of counterfeit mon- ey. Many lead coins are deposited in the fare box, and the motorman cannot determine its genuiness, as he bas no key and cannot take it from the fare by There is at the company’s office a small bag of spurious coin that has been passed on motormen aod Iropped in the fare box, and there is juite a quantity of it, Itis not an easy matter to get a motorman to ash a counterfeit coin now, owing to the explicit orders they have to keep a lookout for it, +? There is one ambitious young man ah who was too young to go but he had the pleasure of be pg a soldier for a few hours theotl er night. The only thing to mar his asure was the fact that he bad to |be a Spanish soldier, It was on the | in ‘Remember the Maine.’’ He remembers it He was one of the body guard of Gen, Weyler, and made a typical Spanish soldier,as he always managed to do the wrong thing, and when the aptain said “Right about face,’’ he never failed to tarn to the left, Dur- ing the performance he had to ‘rub. ber’? at the audience, and to cap the imax, when he was discharged from rvice be did not get a cent— not even at the rate of $15 a mouth oe Capt. Bob Murphy, the one-armed recruiting officer, who came to Padu- cah last summer and made a great ad stand play, is still going about sulling newspapers with his imagina- ry experiences in Cuba, He now | claims he lost an arm in the battle of | Santiago while waving a sword in the charge up a bill apt. Murphy lost along time ago, and if he bas no more self-respect than to in- |fict such palpable prevarications on helpless public, some of bis friends ould place a muzzle on him and iain him to some convenient post. There are enough heroes of this war, without having to manufacture them out of one-armed recruiting officers. t Some magistrates have an amusing |way of transacting business. One story of the one who several years ‘o sentenced a man to the peniten- tiary from down in the lower part of the county, and started a constable to prison with him, is well known, He thought he had as much right to seng.bim there as gny one else, and pre led to do it. Several months ago another magi (rate of the county sent two negroes to jail here. ‘There was a mittimus accompanying them, but it did not state any charge. The men remained tn jail, and when the grand jury met, there was nothing to show what the prisoners were charged with, and the grand jury, under the circumstances, had no authority to turo them loose. The men stood a pretty good chance of spending the remainder of their days in jail until a few days ago, when the magistrate happened to come to town, and bethought him- self of bringing the warrants, They were turned over to the proper au- thorities, and the prisoners are to have a trial this week, ‘They are charged with robbery. They are doubtléss forcibly impressed with the conviction that ‘itis better late than neve his arm | | tt The city has decided that it must do one of two things—repeal the law which says that a patient shall not remain in the city hospital but 30 days or have them all discharged atthe expiration of that time, dead or alive, The report of the steward, read at the council, showed that one patient had been there for nearly nine months, while several others had been there for nearly as long. It would look iahuman to turn some of them out when they are in such a condition as many of them get, yet the law is plain, and if it cannot be enforced it ought to be repealed. The present administration started out to inaugurate a change in the wanagement of the hospital, and de- cided that no one but transient indi- ots were él iginal purpose for whieh the institu. tion was established. This would necessitate all others being sent to the hospital, which has never been considered a hospital, but more of refuge for destitute people who have to be supported by some one, In many instances, people with consumption are taken to the hos- pital, where they become too low to be sent away, and linger until death relieves them. This is oftentimes for months. Judge Tully, who is watch- ful of the county’s interests, refuses to send such patients to the poor farm, insisting that their proper place is in the city hospital, and the only thing to do is to take them to the latter place or let them die with- out help or support. Thos, with law on one side and humanity on the other, the city physician and hus- pital managers, includiog the mayor, are left in s very unpleasant predica- ment. : ae ee A touching incident was witnessed on the Illinois Central passenger train yesterday forenoon. It illus. trates what railroad men have to contend with, oftentimes, and how a kind act can be appreciated. An aged man with his wife and five or six small children boarded the train above Central City. When the conductor came around he learned that the old man did not have a cent. It was his duty, under the circum- stances, to put him off, but before the train was stopped the flagman, Tom Flynn, felt a compassion for the destitute family, and paid the fare of them all to Paducah, where they de- sired to come, out of bis own pocket, In addition he gave the venerable man $5 98 a starter. The old fellow was so grateful that he sat down and wept at intervals nearly all the way to Paducah. Why he ever took his family ahoard with- out money be did not explain, but be had not evidently seen so mmc money #8$5 for many a day before to admission to The flagman is a brother of Train- master Jack Flynn, and one of the most popular on the road. ie | The attraction a man in uniform has for the average girl was exempli- fied the other day, when a young lieutenant now in the city, was out driving. Two girls in a buggy haps pened to meet him and smiled. He smiled back and the girls made it convenient to meet him again. For some time they drove along around one block to pass the dashing soldier and his rig, until he finally went to his boarding house, and passed back into the kitchen where he saw them es they passed, and waved at them A little further away the girls met a couple of other young ladies, evi- dently also bent on getting a glimpse of the officer, and the first exclaim- ed: “Ob, you aren't in it. He waved to.us!’* ‘They seemed to ap- preciate the condescension of the military man very much. Next time itis to be hoped that he will both wave and smile at them, Doa’t experiment, but yet the old reliable Plantation Chill Cure. RHEUMATISM CURED.
