The Greenbrier Independent says
that F. A. Renick, who undertook,
about a year ago, to raise skunks for
the profits that might accrue from
their furs, has abandoned the enter
prise. owing TO the fact that they
would not increase to any great ex
tent in state of captivity.
Edward Neald, an agent for the
South Western Publishing Company
was dubbed in the head by Frank
Church at Wheeling Monday of last
week and died the following day
from the injuries. Church claimed
Neal had insulted his wife and
sneakipg up behind him On the street
struck him over the head several
times. Neald ran and screamed muir
der! police! A policeman arrested
both men and afterward allowed
Church to go home. The wounded
man was put in the lookup where he
received little medical attention for
hours. Church was re arrested when
it was found that the wounded man
was in a dangerous condition There
is evidently something wrong with
the Wheeling police as this is the
second wounded man to die in prison
for want of attention within the past
few weeks. If strangers are to be
dubbed half to death and then ar
rested for it and thrown into cell
Wheeling had better get officers who
are possessed of at least thimble
full of brains.

of Abe S. Warder which occurred in
Salt Lake City some time last week
1t is reported that he was travelling
at the time and stopped at hotel
in the above named city over night

We did not learn the cause of his
death. Mr.. Warder was well known
here, he having married one of West
Unions best and most prominent la
dies, Miss Cora, the daughter of Col.
F. Nicely in 1856. Two or three years
after they removed to Colorado and
it is said they since separated and
that Mrs. Warder, who has a little
daughter four years old, now resides
in Denver, Colorado. Before his mar.
riage Mr.. Warder was for several
years in the employ of Messrs. Ruhl,
Koblegard d Co. al Weston, where
he was popular as well as successful.
After that he was engaged in the
hardware business at the same place.
Afterward he went on the road as a
salesman, which business he followed
almost exclusively until his death.
His many friends here and elsewhere
in this State will be sorry to hear
the sad news of his death Vest

The separation Of man and wife
has caused quite a sensation in the
little village of Grove in South West
district Doddridge county. About
