The wagon was taken to the bot- tom of the bank, and while Mr. Pots ter and Henry Coleman were there engaged in loading the wagon, the bank caved in and buried them both. Men hastily went to the rescue,and the victims were dug out.

He was taken home and Dr. Thomas E, Moss of the city, was summoned and dressed the injuries, Mr. Potter was also taken home, aod Dr. J. T. Reddick, of the city, and Dr, Allcock, of the county, were called to dress his injuries. At last accounts both men were resting as e could be expected. SABBATH OL RVANCE. How it Cost a Paducahan a Lot of Good Fish. A good joke is told at the expense of Mr. L, P, Rasor, who was em- ployed recently to pump out a grav- el pit out near the old fair ground with one of the city’s fire engines. Ue WUIKED WEE several days aud Saturday found there were but two and one-half feet in the pit. He wanted to work all day Sugday, in order to get the fish out when the water became low enough for him to wade in and rake up the finny tribe. The mayor would not permit it, however, aud Mr. Rasor spent Sun, day with the blissful realization that he was not desecrating the day as he half intended, It was with a light heart that he returned to work Mon- day morning, thinking of the good fish he would carry home that night, but imagine his surprise and chagrio when he reached the pit, to find that the people of the neighborhood had availed themselves of his absence the day previous, and had seined every fish ia the poad, All the large trout—and they say there were trout weighing five and ten pounds in the pit, were carried away, but all the skip jacks and other common fish were thrown on the bank to rot. Mr. Rasor’s disappointment was great, and the next time he bas euch a chance to catch fish he is going to catch them while be can LIVELY RUNAWAY. Belonging Mr. Joe Woods Runs Away.

All but the shafts aud front wheels was left at the bottom of the hill and the horse started at a 2:40 gait up the hill, He did not hit bat one ob: struction, a barrel, and the runaway was watched with a great deal of in- terest. by people both on top and at the bottom of the hill. The animal finally ran against the drain cover at the foot of Court street, and as the wheels went over, went over with them and was unable to get up. He was captured and carried to the remains of the wagon, and did not seem to be much “the worse for his experience. ‘There morning levee.

The Fair Association Will Aban- | don Its Grounds for Its In- debtedness — President Instructed to Sell. “x PADUCAH'S BIG FEST tha Indebted: 000, Grounds a3, Good Land—Will Seek a Purchaser, mprise Acres NX An important meeting of the direc- tors of the Paducah Fair and Expo- / sition Association was held late yes- ; terday afternoon, at which it was de- cided by a vote of the directors, that the president be instructed to sell to the highest bidder the grounds of the said association, the proceeds or re- ceipts to be appropriated to the pay- meut of the indebtedness of the asso- ciation, For some time it bas been known that the association was in hard lines, owing to the failure of the peo- ple to properly patronize the meet- ings in the past few years, and this is one reason the fair, which would now be in progress bad it not been de- clared off, did not take plac The grouads of the peiation comprise 33 acres of the best land or about eight blocks, and cost the as sociation to equip them about $12,- 000. he present indebtedness of tbe association is about $7,000 and the directors are willing to close out the grounds to the person or persons who will assume the indebtedness, which will then protect the directors. ¢ It may be said in bebalf of the di- rectors and ofticers of the association that they have done the best they could, and it is no fault of their's that the annual meets were failures from @ financial standpoint. It is more than probable that the new men will take charge of the grounds and that Paducah will bere- after have her fairs regularly and with credit to the city and county well as profit to all concerned.

N. Clarke, who bas been taking a great deal of interest in the completion of the Chivago and Eastern railroad, which is to ran from Marion, Lil., to Metropolis, has been informed by Chicago capitalists in response to inquiry that the road will probably be completed next year. ‘The reference maps of tne agency show that it has been completed to Metropolis, but this is an error. The Chicago men, when Mr. Clark wrote them went to work and ascertained from the directors of the proposed railroad, that it had not been com- pleted to Metropolis because of the stringency existing a year or two ago, but from indications would be completed next year. The Chicago men also assure Mr. Clarke that it is their opinion that the road will then be completed. It is needless to detail the advant- age this road will prove to Paducah, as well as to Chicago merchants, who do a big business here. It is hoped that the road will be completed to Metropolis next year, as intended at present. To run it to Paducah would then be a matter of only a short time, ud Harding Davis was another corres; ondent I had trouble with,’’ said Gen. Shafter. ‘He tried to tell me where I ought to land the troogs. Then he said his superior talents ought to entitle him to land first. “I told him I knew notbing of his superior talents, and that a corres- pondent from Podunk would have ust vt the same privileges as Davis. ‘This made him mad, and he has been writing stuff against me ever since.’” Come and see our medium weight blue flannel knee pants at 25c, Well worth 50 cents.
