THE Worlds Fair banquet at
Charleston last Wednesday night was
celebrated with great eclat, and the
speakers spoke and the drinkers
drank and the eaters ate from 9 in
the evening until in the morning.
But after all this, the Legislature
isn't solid for that hundred thousand
dollar appropriation. On the con-
trary, number of members have
emphatically expressed themselves as
utterly opposed to an appropriation
OF over $4,000 for West Virginia's ex-
hibit at the Chicago fair. The ex-
hibition would only advertise the
coal and timber and oil lands of the
State, which are almost entirely held
by outside capitalists. These lands
pay very little of the taxes, and it
would be unjust to tax all the peo-
pie so heavily for the personal gain
of the few.

BILE and wife were called to Muscatine
yesterday in response to distressing new
of the tragic death of the wife of Mr.

that city. The Journal of last evening
had the following particulars of the

Our citizens were shocked, this morn.
ing, as the news spread from mouth IN
mouth, of the sudden death, last night. of
the esteemed wife of Z der /. o. kemble,
by fall down stairs.
AT about 2 o'clock this morning Mr..
kemble was aroused from deep sleep in
his room on the second f DOR of his dwelling
by noise which made him think that
someone was in the house, causing a
commotion Discovering that his wife
was not in her accustomed place, he
at once went into the hall and
down stairs, from whence the noise
had come and found his wife insensihle
on the floor at the foot Of the stairs. TAX
ing her up, he began To fear that she
must be already dead ss there was no
response to his questionings and only a
slight huttering of the heart when he first
took hold OF her. Meantime the two
| daughters. who had also been aroused by
the noise of their mothers fall, made
their appearance. The oldest, Miss Vida,
was sent to call Mrs. Kessinger, whose
home was just across tie street, and also
to summon DR.. Ruth, whose residence
was not far away. Mr. Kemble held the
| PROSTATE form of his " fe till the assists
ance thus summoned came to hand, but
| it was too lste-her life had fled. Ex-
! animation showed that she had fallen
upon her head-probably striking the
| lower step of the stsirs-and that the fall
| had dislocated her neck, so that death
must have been instantaneous
How ebe happened to fall is mystery
1t Is supposed, however, that she was
walking in her sleep. though she was not
| accustomed TO do so. and that touching
the wal. with her hands she fell hesdlong
! down stairs, or possibly over the railing
at the side of the stairway, supposing it
was her bed. She had been unusually
busy with household and other duties
| during the preceding day and was very
weary on retiring. The last thing she
had done during the day was to put up
some curtains which had been taken
| down for house clearing, saying she
wanted to have everything "all right for

A BARAROUS SPECTACLE.
A HOr.e With a Broken Leg Put Ont
of its Miseries With a Pick An

The Davenport Democrat this morn
ing contains the following:
There was an exciting runaway on the
Brady street hill last evening shortly be-
fore : o'clock. A negro who is known
universally as Nose" was driving a
team of Fritz Gerstenberg's horses down
the hill, attached to an ordinary wagon
heavily loaded with straw and hay At
about Seventh street one of the lines
broke, and the driver few backward and
slid from the load. This served to
brighten the horses, and away they few
down the hill. The load of hay was
scattered along the road all the way to
Fifth street. There the near front wheel
of the wagon struck the base of one of
the gates, which at that time was
open, and broke square off one of the
C asst iron weights That serves as balance
10 the wooden arm of the gate. The
wheel that came into contact with the
gate was knocked into splinters, and the
wagon came to sudden halt. Not so
the horses, however. They had gained
such momentum in their run down
grade that as the wagon stopped the har-
ness snapped, and they shot forward. one
to keep its feet, and the other to aight
square between the rails of the north
Rock Island track, with a broken leg
A crowd collected in an instant, and re,
manned about the corner for
half an hour, when tardy de-
cislon WAS reached that the horse
would have to be killed. Then ensued
barbarous and disgusting spectacle. In
stead Of clearing the street ald shooting
the animal, al attempt was made TO kill
it with pick>sxe. The FIRST blow
brought the horse 20 its feet, to fall again,
and the second precipitated another
struggle 10 rise. Not until the pick had
been sunk in the beasts skull four times
did it drop back in the throes of death
Strong men turned away sickened at the
sight. When life was finally extinct the
animal was partially covered with hay
and later the carcass was carted away.
The episode was one of a kind that does
not occur on our streets every day, for
which let US be duly thankful.

-C AounS Lawyer Does the h1Snt
Thing IS Regards His Iusuit to
Judge Adams.
AT the opening of the county court in
the circuit court chamber at the court
mouse tais morning. Attorney William
McEniry made frank and manly apology
to Judge Lucisn Adams for his insult to
the court in connection with the gambling
casesiast Monday morning. The language
which Mr.. McEnirY used was as follows:
while student under Judge Cooley
he said to ne there are two things which
lawyers ought not to do: one 10 deceive
the court, the other 10 abuse the dignity
OF the court. After mature re-
Election. feel that in the heat of passion
last Monday morning l made use of
language tending to abuse the dignity of
this court. l now take this opportunity
OF apologizlng for what l said, and ask
that 1t may be received in the same spirit
in which offer it,"
Judge Adams in accepting the apology
$500 NAAS'S was III VI LIS part
toward Mr.. McEniry, but that he had
not intended to pass over the occurrence
OF last Monday merning without requir>
ing such reparation as was necessary.
Neither would he have felt like admitting
that there was anything in the line
of justification for 1t no m after what the
attorney might have considered the pro-
vocauon-his conduct was inGefensible
Judge Adams was glad that Mr.. Nc
Entry had realized that an unqualified
apology was the only thing proper. He
must have known that it was necessary
to enforce such rules and requirements
as would insure proper respect for the
court. There was too much tendency 10
hold the courts in light estimation and
the license which attorneys sometimes
use to disregard the position of the court
may be taken advantage of by others, and
the court if it permitted such misuse of
its functions would soon lose its power
and usefulness. Judge Adams was, be
said. glad to accept Mr.. McEniry's apoi-
ogy in the spirit in which it was pre-
sented.
