revenue men had been there that
morning, and they showed him the
tree they stood behind, and Wilson
said in the presence of the others that
if the revenue men came back, that
they would kill every did man of

pistols. He left the still after night,
about O'Clock. They came down to the

Warters and Mrs. Warters were at the

STRANGE STORY OF MUIR
DER IN POCAHONTAS co.
The Romantic Death of an Al
legged PittSburgher.

4 correspondent OF the New York
World tellsa somewhat romantic story OF
crime and treasure with which is connect
ed the name of an alleged Piitsburgher.
The letter is dated Big Spring, W. Va,
Nov. "A, and states that on the 9th inst.
two men called at the residence OF a
VIM. G.. Sharp, OF the neighborhood
mentioned, and on the plea of being
in search OF a blue grass farm en-
gagged board, ran the country
over and then one OF the two
came home alone, said that he had been
hunting through a cave in the neighbOr-
hood in explanation Of his dirty and torn
clothes; that his companion had been
overcome with WEAKNESS and was await
ing him at ncighbOring point paid his
bill and LETT. The men had given their
names as w. Ray HattOn and }. q.
Davis. Some days after party driving
by the mouth OF the cave in the neigh
borhood and attracted by a strong
stencil, some one alluded yesterday to
the late presence OF the two visitors,
and that one of the same might be the
cause of the stencil. The conversation
turned from a Jest into earnest. An in
vestigation followed, discovering the
body of man in an advanced
stage OF decomposition evidently muir
dered, and proven to be one OF the two
visitors who had gone by the name OF
Davis. Examination OF his person dis
covered letters addressed to John L..
stone, Pittsburgh, Pa Other letters
were also found, and amap OF the region
about Big Spring; and the cayein which
he was found was particularly indicated,
together with geographical directions
how To reach il, a red line being drawn
through Upshur county, by the head OF
the Valley river, to point marked
cave near Big Spring. Notes on the
fy-leaf OF the book spoke OF gold being
buried certain distance from an y on a
limestone. The directions, Gross the
pond of water from the west TO a water
work shelf; thence north %, west feet

followed. After crossing the pond fresh
tracks on the floor led the way. At the
mouth OF the crevice found an old bat
tered iour-gallon kettle, which examina-
ton showed had held coin. The kettle had
been about half full OF coin, about the
size OF fifty cent pieces.
The letters proved that Mr. StOne-oI

BELLAIRE'S BRACE
OF Fatal Casualties-A Quarry
man and n Negress the Vic



Bellaire, which for a few days has
not offered very liberal harvest to the
news gatherer, rather outdid herself
Yesterday in the production OF blood
curdling incidents. Full particulars OF
the sad suicide OF Mr.. Styles will be
found IN another column, and below
we give the narrative OF two serious ac-
cidents, one of them, at least, having
terminated fatally.
Samuel Meeks, a workman in the
stone quarry of the McClain brothers,
who have the contract for furnishing
stone to the blast furnace OF the Bellaire
Iron Works, was severely. and in all.
probability, mOrtally wounded by the
caving in OF quantity OF earth and
loose stone upon him. His thighs are
lacerated, and the bones fractured, be-
side which he sustained severe con-
fusion OF the chest, and other slighter
injuries.
Meek was a man of about thirty-three
wears of age, and leaves a widow.
The quarry in which the affair Oc-
Cured seems TO be particularly liable to
serious mishaps. Some time ago the
roof caved in, and the valuable steam
engine and drilling machinery was bad
ly damaged. Later Arthur MCClain, the
senior proprietor, was seriously hurt by
the premature explosion of blast and
a similar accident laid two employees up
for some days.
The other accident referred to was as
terrible as it was singular in character.
An old COlored woman, Mrs. Hannah
Bucknev, mother-in-law OF Rev. jesse
Hargrave, pastor Of the Second NJ. F..
Church, was sitting in a chair, smoking a
pipe, when some OF the burning tobacco
fell upon her clothing and ignited IT.,
and in an instant, almost, she was COM
pletely enveloped in flames. She was
an octogenarian, and almost helpless,
but managed to make enough noise to
call her daughter to her side, but not in
time to save her life, as she was so badly
burned before succor reached her that
she breathed only a few minutes.
