EJ-RuMoRRD DEATH OF EZRA NJ.
owIRs.-It is reported here that Ezra
NJ. Overs was shot and killed by one
Of tho peniton!iary guards a few days
since. The story is that on several
occasions he has attempted to escape,
and that strict watch has since then
been kept upon his movements. On
the day of his death, no knocked down
one Of tho guards, and was about to
escape, when he received his DEATH
wound at the hands Of ono of tho pri.
son officers, whe happened to be near.
This is tho story, as wo have heard it
but as yet we have seen nothing in
tho Wheeling or MeundsvillO papers
upon the subject.

have among tue business men Of OUT
tow eight persons, all natives of Mon.
ongalia and we have often thought
ii u little peculiar that another county
in the same State, having no affinity
or congcniality in common with ours,
should send to our county town such a
number of useful citizens. We have
reference to 2, NJ. Hale, 4. NJ. Chal.
FAINT, A. NJ. DCpt, George G. Danser,
A. G, Halo, Vim. j. Doughcrty, j,
G. Vandcryort, and Preston Dawson,
PRESLEY NJ. HALE is tho conccntra-
ted essence Of energy, enterprise aud
industry. He is emphatically man Of
dceds-not Of words. He is the life Of
our town; and we could spare almost
any other ten Of our business men with
smaller loss to the community than il
we were to loso p. NJ. Hale. He was
born near NIorgantown, and began life
poor llisparcnts were in very mod
crate circumstances, and when P. NJ.
was but child, they moved to Indi-
ana, then known as "tho far west. !"
With no opportunity for an education,
and no chance for advancement, lie
struggled on but his health failing
him, no returned to Virginia, aud
served an apprenticeship to tho hattcrs
trade, in FairmOnt, In 1910 he came
to Weston, and commenced career
which has aided moro to build up our
town and dOvelOpc tho surrounding
country than any other man in it-Ox.
cepting, perhaps, Mr.. j. NJ. Bennett.
For seven years he was one Of the Di-
reetors Of tho Asylum, and it may DO
truthfully said that the State never
obtained the services ola more efficient
officer. In 1851 10 was elected to the
Convention which roorganized the gov
ernmtnt Of Virginia, and afterwards
represented this county for two years
in tho Legislature. In politics Mr..
Hale is ian old line Democrat" and
for some yCarspast-as was his custom
in ante Jellum timss-has voted eur
party ticket, but at the commencement
Of hOstilitics, no took a determined
stand for the Union. In consequence
Of this fact, the Confederate troops
paid particular attention to him when
they came through this section, aud
during the continuance Of tho struggle
his property was captured or destroyed
to the amount Of $4,000. Nothing
dismayod by this, he began life anew
"from the ground up"-and by dint
of indOmitablO personal industry and
enterprise, hO is again "on his feet"
AT this writing, he pays daily, for Ia
Dor alone, 1926. Think Of it-S75O
per wcok-$3,O0O per month, oil for
labor. and nearly all this is paid to
men who would DO idle or compelled to
seek work abroad, were II not for the
enterprise shown by Mr.. Halo: He is
now in tho prime of lifo-a woll.in.
formed, courteous gentleman, and q
scholar Of no mean pretOnsiOns. We
commend him to our young men as n
worthy example for their imitation ;
for in him We sec combined tho three
great principles Of real life-honssty,
industry aud perseverance. Half a
dozen such men would bring US a
railroad-a dozen would make Weston
the foremost city in the State.
Next week We will continue our
sketches Of the gentlemen referred to
at tho opening Of this article.

toward high prices. We will have on

nation of tho last fact, wo will sell

eggs and butter taken at the market

Another Female ElackmaiIer.

Another young girl has been trying
the black-mailing dodge in New York
and come to grief. Carrie w. Moore,
who says she is only II, but looks Is
years of age, and is very pert, not to say
brazen on the witness-stand, was in
court on Wednesday as plaintiff against
Mary Florence and William Dennis,
whom she charged with abducting her
for vile purposes. She swore she was
going to school on the 18th of December
last, about 9 o'clock in the morning,
when the prisoner Dennis met her on
Sixth avenue and told her there was a
schoolmate Of hers in carriage close
by. She went into the carriage and
found no one in i, but was followed by
Dennis, who put handkerchief over
her face and she became insensible.
She next found herself in a shanty on
Eleventh avenue, and thence Dennis
conveyed her in a carriage to No. 143
West Twenty street, house kept
by Mrs. Williamson, who would not let
them stay in her house, so they went to
No. 152 Sixth avenue, where he effected
her ruin. Counsellor Howe, in a very
few minutes, showed the girl to be a
prostitute. She had already been'in the
House of Refuge for nine months, being
found in house of illfame on Greene
street, two years ago. A verdict of not
guilty was ordered by the Judge, and
the prisoners departed rejoicing.

pound of asphaltum, one half pound

turpentine. If found too thin, add
beeswax if too light in color, add as
phaltun, though that must be done with
caution, as a very little will make a
great difference in the shade. and black
walnut is not what its name implies,
but rather rich dark brown. Varnish-

good gloss.

work into the sponge three quarters of

flour enough to make stiff dough (;
work the dough thoroughly, cut into
biscuits, let them stand on buttered tins
to rise, sift sugar upon each, and bake
in a quick oven. o1
