MARTINS FERRY.

If our county commissioners would
overhear the blessings that they got
on account of their neglect in not put
ting the floor or covering on the TWO
bridges that have been built on the
county road they perhaps would try
and have this work done. 1t is simply
an outrage TO think that
through the gross neglect OF
some one that the travelling public
is not only compelled to drive away out
of their road, but it may be the cause
of damage suit against the county, for
il is a very dangerous place. Now gen.
tlemen, for goodness sake try and stop
this bowling about your carelessness,
and see if you can't serve the public in
having the flooring placed on this bridge,
as il is the only way OF getting to New

town.

BAD FOR COL. BOB.
A Little Mistake That Cost Ingerson e1o,-
600 or $4,000.
c<oSfJ< Droce

\
Charles n. Arms, Assistant United
States attorney of the District OF Col
umbia, was found at the Grand Hotel
this morning and told the following In
teresting Renaissance Of Col. IngeToll
and the late John McSweeney, the willy
orator and lawyer:
when Col. Ingersoll undertook the
defense of Dorsey, of Star Route noto-
riety, he was given check for $50, 600,
with the understanding that he was to
employ some one to assist him and pay
for such services. Ingersoll determined
to employ the late John McSweeney, OF
Wooster, o., who was the foremost
criminal lawyer in the United States.
Ingersoll had never met McSweeney,
but telegraphed him to come to wash
ington. McSweeney, although FULL
blooded Irishman, had spent several
years in German university and looked
like German.
Dorsey's confidential man, George
Eakers, was a German, and was expect
ed the day before McSweeney would
arrive. As Eakers had some important
knowledge, Col. Ingersoll was anxious
to see him. He went up to the Airing
ton, where all of the Dorsey party were
quartered, and awaited his mans ar
rival. Soon there entered a tall, stout
man with his trousers tucked Into pair
of No. 9 boots and his clothing bespat-
tered with mud. His hair fell in ring
lets to his shoulders, and his whole APP
pearance was that Of jonrneyman
Texas cowboy. The stranger had scarce
" had time to look around before his
hand was in the grasp of the famous
orator, who said:
II am Ingersoll."
"Yes," returned the other, 81 was
looking for YOU"
"Ahl / thought So" chuckled the
Colonel. "Come right up to the room;"
and without giving the guest time TO
register he escorted him 10 the room.
Zone of the first things l wanted to
say to you, Mr.. Eakers, was In this
matter of my fee. 1t won't be worth
while to mention the amount | received
to McSweeney when he comes, as he
will naturally do his utmost. l propose
to employ him as cheap as l can. OF
course / must have him, and if it comes
to pinch l would pay him $4,000 to
assist me, but think can get him for
1000, perhaps, and l am satisfied he
won't refuse $4,000 in such case as
this, if he thinks that is all be can get.
He's an awful stickler for fees. though,
/ hear, so just oblige me and don't tell
him what got"
"0h. certainly not" said the staid in
dividual.
"Well, I'll see you again in few min
utes," said Ingersoll as he left the room.
A short time after that he saw the
name John insolvency on the register
and sent us his card. He was directed
to the same room,
where's McSweeney?" inquired In
gersoll, looking around hurriedly.
That's my name," said the supposed
Eakers, with a comical drawl that grated
on Ingersol's ears. What followed
need not be told. OF course they d.
vided the fees equally.
