a Terrible Crime.

News of Il most heartless and barbar-
Gus crime has been received from Rob-
inson's Fork, Doddridge county, w. Va.
Thomas True and his wife, it seems,
had some family trouble which enraged
and embittered True against his wife to
such an extent that he drove her from
his house in the most brutal manner
and swore he would kill the man that
should keep her over night. The home
less women went to the house of Robert
Miller, a farmer, not far distant and
begged for shelter. Mr.. Miller took her
in and the woman stayed all night. The
brutal husband hearing of this went to
the field where Miller was at work,
armed with shotgun. True deliber-
ately fired at Miller, placing twenty
three slugs in his breast, killing him
instantly. True fled and is still at large.
The most intense excitement prevailed
after the affair became known, ard the
neighbors Immediately formed posse
and scattered in search of the heartless
murderer. If he is caught there is not
the least doubt that the indignant peo-
pie will lynch him.

a Fight With Tramps.

Last Monday night, as south-bound
freight train oil the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad was nearing Edinburg, Shen-
andoah county, Va, the conductor dis
covered five tramps between the cars
stealing rides. On reaching Edinburg
they we're told to get of, but refused.
Force was spoken of, when the tramps
produced razors and pistols and declared
their intention of riding 10 Harrison
burg. The officials Of Edinburg we're
called to the rescue, but when the town
sergeant attempted to put dow n the re-
sistance by drawing a pistol, he was
covered with revolver by one Of the
tramps and warned TO desist. The
tramps were finally scattered anu four
have since been arrested. The matter
has occasionej considerable excitement.
Where the tranps were from. or where
they were going, Is not known.

The Slide Of n Mountain.

News has just reached US of most re-
markable slide of land, rocks and trees
from the high cliffs on the south side OF
the river in the Gap, about two miles
below Petersburg, in Grant county. AT
this point the mountain, capped by huge
cliffs of rock, is something like one
thousand feet high, the river running
along at its base. 1t is very steep and
rugged from the river to the top, heaV-
ily timbered, ribbed by IA succession of
cliffs, eliminating in the tremendous
cliffs 1t the top.
On Sunday evening last about hve
o'clock large mass of the top Cliff
from some unknown cause became
loosened and with tremendous crash
came laundering down the mountain,
bringing with it the lower cliffs and
huge trees in its path, never stopping
until it rushed entirely across the river.
The noise made by the descending mass
is said to have been awfully appalling,
and was distinctly heard long dis
tance. The river bed, at the point OF
descent, is said to be completely filled
with rocks, trees, &c, the water find
ing its way through and underneath
them. This Gap has heretofore had its
history and curiosities, but we mistake
not if this falling down of mountain
will not hereafter be considered its most
attractive and curious feature.
We frequently hear of and see land
slides, but seldom is it that mountain
becomes looseued from its everlasting
moorings and slides away .-Keyser Trt-

As great an extent as this measure will
do it. The paper money banks and their
advocates will oppose it. because they
want to monopolize the paper currency

A FRIEND of Senator Kenna of West
Virginia says that since his speech on
the right of the President to withhold
papers from the Senate his experience
and intercourse among Senators is so
wholly different from what it was that
he can hardly believe that he is the
same man living in the same condition
Of life. The correspondent of the Troy
Times writes that men who have hith-
erto been distant and reserved are now
almost enthusiastic in their expressions
of regard and esteem. 1t beats all what
one good strong speech will do to break
the ice for a novitiate in the Senate.
Kenna is delightful fellow in all re-
spects. He lie az free and open-handed
"a man can be, and accessible at all
times to people Of all sorts. He is a
wonderfully versatile man, and owes

known to bring down nine deer in one

streams In the Alleghenies, and likes
nothing better than to set out for days

men, can bring in the biggest string OF
trout. Besides, he is fine amateur
