Miss KATE Claxton has settled down
for the summer ut the home Of her par.
ents, New Brunswick, n. ]. She needs q
rest, she says, not so much from any ar.
duous service during her recent profess.
ional tour us from the fatigue Of reading
the newspaper squibs that sprang from
her fire experience. She relates 10 an
inquiatiye reporter some anecdotes that
have not before found their way into print.
When her agent secured the Opera-House
at indianapolis, the owner doubled his
insurance, and had the whole Fire De-
partment under orders. She had received
nearly u carload OF ire.escapes, and one
agent made her u lattering financial offer
if she would permit him to name his
machine alter her. Enough life.insu-
rance pamphlets and circulars have been
sent her to start papermill, and in one
Western city she with great difficulty
prevented Board OF enthusiastic stock
holders naming their insurance company
after her. When she arrived at New
Brunswick, in hope Of peace and quiet,
she was Immediately waited upon by n
committee from the local Fire Depart.
ment with q request that she would bless
their engine with her name. This all SEEM
ed hard enough, but the climax was reach
ed when World reporter sent in his card,
and since then she has denied herself to
even members Of her own family.

Capital Discussion nt BuchRn.
non Last Monday.

BucKHANNoN, w VA, June u.
Editors Intelligsnser;
A mass meeting Of the citizens Of the
county Of UpshuT, was held at The Court
House, In this place, yesterday, to hear a
discussion Of the Capital question. The
eligibility Of Clarksburg as location for
the State Capital, was advocated by Hon.
G. D. Camden and Gen. Nathan Gof, IL.
Charleston was represented by Hon. r.
II. Freer and Major D. D. T. Farnsworth.
The discussion was opened by Mr.. Cam.
den in speech Of one hours length, fol.
lowed by Mr.. Freer, who occupied an
equal length Of time. General Gotf fol.
lowed Mr.. Freer in q speech OF forty
minutes; then Mr.. FarnsWorth spoke an
hour, and General Golf closed the dis
custom in a speech Of twenty minutes.
The meeting contained about FIVE hun.
dred voters, and in addition thereto q
large number Of ladies. The audience
gave close and respectful attention
throughout the discussion, In which all
the speakers acquitted themselves we'll,
It is certainly fair TO say that the palm
was carried'off by our Clarksburg friends,
who demonstrated that Of the two places
10 be voted for, the interests Of the State
at large and the county Of Upshur demand
the location Of the Capital at Clarksburg
From the best estimate that could be
made, at least three.fourths OF the voters
comprising the meeting were in favor oil
Clarksburg, and will so vote at the enSu'
ing election. lmake the prediction that
three.fourths or four.iifths Of all the
votes cast in this county at the coming
election will he for Clarksburg. Were il
not for some prejudice engendered against
Clarksburg during the time our town was
prominent competitor for the Capital
which still exists to a slight extent, ]
believe the vote Of our county would bG
almost unanimous for Clarksburg.

AT meeting Of the Board, on Saturday,
the 9th inst, the Directors decided to
decline the purchase Of rails, although
the offers were made at very low rates.
They also resolved 10 stop all work upon
the road where the same could be done
without detriment, keeping forces at
work at the more difficult points. This
policy has been resolved on in conse-
quence Of the unexpected delay by stock.
holders in making payments. There are
yet $4,000 Of unsolicited stock sub
Scriptions. II only three.iourths Of that
amount were paid up or in process Of
payment, the Directors would have no
hesitation in pressing forward the work
and commencing the laying OF track. But
until the delinquent stockholders shall
realize that they are holding back the
road, or until the law shall compel them
to pay, the Directors will contne the
work to the actual r0ceipts,?-BelLair

by q national Bureau of Industry ?
True, they only propose TO apply their

But why should they not extend their

For sixteen years ono of the great

If the country and it's people are pros

Stop That Lie.

The Radical papers seized with avid
ity upon q statement in an Enquirer
special asserting that . misunderstand'
ing existed at the Put-in-Bay confer
ence between Hon. r. M. Bishop and
the most prominent members of the
Democratic State Central Committee
regarding the subject of Mr.. Bishop's
assessment for Campaign purposes.
And though the silly story has been
long since branded as base falsehood
the pious, patriotic and veraciouslsad-
ical papers continue to. repeat it, In
hopes o: gaining some little political
advantage by sacrificing their char
acter for decency and truthfulness.
The reporter of the Cleveland Leader,
some three weeks ago interviewedMr.
Bishop and thus reports the Conver-
sation upon this subject: 500
Reporter-Mr. Bishop, I called to
ask something in regard to this report
which the Enquirer has made about
there having been q Misunderstanding
between the committee and yourself
in regard TO furnishing funds for the
campaign. a
( Mr.. Dwell, sir, there is but one
thing to say about that, and that is,
that THERE is NOT A SINGLE
WORD OF TRUTH IN 1T. THE
SUBJECT OF MONEY WAS NOT
MENTIONED,EVEN IN THE CON-
MITTEE ROOM, and I told the En-
quirer man so. He has probably COR
rected it in his paper before this.
Rep.-Did your sons promise money
to the committee as an inducement for
the nomination 'r
Mr., B.-Nothsng Of the Kind. The
matter sDas not considered at all. The
fact of the matter is, was not taken
up on any such grounds. was nom
mated simply because my friends urg-
ed that was business man and not
politician. ai
But it will be of little avail to at
tempt to expose the array Of false.
hoods that will be employed to keep
the party of plundercrs in power. O
