AURORA w. VA Oct 2nd, lSs0.-Not
having noticed any communication
from here for a long time, have con
cluded TO elevate our goose quill, and
drop you few topics from this famous
locality. 200 Darter" ceased, "Ham>
ton" and Occasional are no more, and
Ira B.'-hes-well, no, not dead, but
might as, we'll bo for he has given up
Polly Tx" oil together. and has set
tied down TO business, and nothing else
seems TO in-pire him.
Business Of all kinds il looking NJ
some. Cattle and Sheep are eIchang-
ing hands, and are bringing fair prices
The yield Of all kinds of grain was
good, except oats, which was light.
The fruit is a fair crop. The farmers
have sowns pretty good acreage of
wheat, in anticipation Of better times,
mechanics are also on the look out,
Ia ping to meet n lucky streak.
Mr.. l. l. McCrum. one of our enter
prising business men is improving his
property which will improve the looks
OF our town very much. Out Touring
mills arc being repaired, and farmers
show signs Of thrift.
The Dunkard brethren arc holding
their annual communion meeting, at
Maple Run church" to-day. and judg-
ing from the large numbers that have
been passing, we would predict large
gathering of people. The Dunkards
arc amongst our best citizens they are
in general sense Of the word, hard
working class, and arc very honorable
in the ir dealings.
The Democrats will hold a meeting
TO day at MaPleHRun to talk Of saairs
in their own district and II is not very
probable that they will nominate any
ticket, but vote for such men IA they
may think most competent to ill the
district Offices
The Republicans have nominated "A
full district ticket, and there appears
W VIC thb instrumentation III kuGlI par
ty about it; there are serious charges
rumorcd about two Of the men nomi-
mated and if the people Of Union dis
trict, are misrepresen:ed by bad men
it is fault that nobody but the Rep ub-
licans, can or will be responsible for.
whether the charges are true, wo do
not know, but We hope that they are
anything else but this We do know
that the present Justices, Mos,rs Sha
fer and Painter both assert that the
documents in the Office Of tho former,
prove these men against whom the
charges are made. unworthy OF the
confidence OF any body much less to be
elected as public officers Now why is
this7 The Republicans have the ma
jOrlty, and If they wish 10 make polit b.
ical canvas they have good and worthy
gentlemen, whom they can elect, and
against whom there can be no charges
But no because these men have been
nominated, by their party caucus, they
will elect them and both Of our pres-
ent justices, aud they are Republicans
assert that thsse men are guilty Of a
great wrong and ought TO be arraigncd

FAUBEL MURDER YARN.
a Big Fraud and a Badly Gulled
Attorney.

On Thursday night, En-. Sadler
the prostitute through whom tht
murder yarn about Fsubel originated
explained the whole affair to Marsha
Shaughnessy and District Attorney
VanZile, and said it was all q joke
that she had only known Varcoe for
about a month, and that there was
nothing in the rumor. She was there
upon released.
Yesterday morning Varcoe, who
had been released on his own re-
cognizance, appeared before Commits
sioner Pearson, by whom the warrant
for his arrest had been issued at Van
Zile's instance, st.the appointed time,
Mr.. Read, Vsrcoe's employer appeared
aud made a statement that Vsrooe
had not missed a days work during
the month of August, and showed the
pay rolls OF the company 20 substan-
tate his assertion, the conclusion
being inevitable that he could not
have come to town from Alta Tiihout
having missed a day at least. Assist
ant District Attorney Beatty t1en
moved the discharge of Varcoe, as Is
was undoubtedly a case OF mistaken
identity; a1d the matter rests IN this
condition.
The whole affair, while on its face {
= pa pAble fraud, is a very peculiar {
case. Murder is a very remarkable
hing about which to perpetrate
oke, and persons guilty of it should
,e punished. 1t wolld seem like
. blsckmailing dodge, but Varooe
s a working man, has little II any L
and it would therefore r
De the Veriest idiocy to operat9 against q
lim in a blackmailing scheme. But a
he most affecting view of this matter
5 that our profound, bright, and
earned district attorney should allow a
himself to be nipped in case where Z
raud is visible to persons almost Y
mentally blind. Il is not to be sup v
osed that he would subject a person ',
} the odium of being called a muir ~
erer, even for few hours, without VI
)me good grounds therefore; and
lille We are willing to admit he may
ave these good reasons, the most ~
atural inference is that he was very !"
nxious for something neH, and in
ais anxiety allowed himself to be
lo3t egregiously gulled. The pub
@ prosecutor should be made OF
terner stuff. As regards Glassner, U
"a is not and never has been a dep -
ty marshal, and in all probability y
ever will be; and in whatever light ca
is connection with the matter is T
iewed, it is reprehensible. The W
hole thing is a big farce, and the NJ
armed district attorney seems to W
ave been the worse befuddled of the su
t. 1t is q sad commentary on the ia
,od sense of the great man who is hC
)ing to wipe out the twin relic" al
