HUNTINGTON, w. VA, June 4.-Sey-
eral DAYS ago Frank Joseph, living on
shapty boat near Central City, gave his
wife such a severe beating that IL was
for awhile feared she would not re-
cover Frank was arrested and is still
i'm iail, but Franks brother William
spirited the woman away, so she would
not have 10 testify against him.
To-day Deputy Sheriff and Con-
stable learned OF the wOman'S where
aboutS and started after her, but were
iprloriously routed. The Joseph boat
was a short time ago transferred to the
other side OF the river, accompanied by
Mrs. Joseph. Thence, therefore, the
two officers took their way, but not so
uuostenSibly as to keep William Joseph
from getting wind of their approach.
He procured a couple of revolvers and
held the missionary Of the law az bay
while Mrs. Joseph escaped aud took
refuge i'm house on top or
the bank some distance De-
low where the boat was landed.
So the officers left the boat, aud while
the constable scaled the steps which
led up 10 the bank the deputy sheriff
went back for the skiff. Inside the
house the constable found the woman
he was after, and a whole lot or other
women he hadn't expected. After he
was safely inside one OF them locked
the door and threw the key out TO W.
Joseph, who once more appeared OF
the scene. He had two recruits K
his forces in the shape Of the lit
tie Joseph boys. He armed them with
Shotguus, and stationed one OF them a
the head Of the steps with instructions

ascend Meanwhile the imprisoned
constable had all he could do to X
ont OF range Of JoSeph's revolvers, bu
he did il, and Joseph managed TO dC
the same on the inside. Things weru

NO FIRE DEPARTMENT
And So JImtown, Col. Was At3Out<Hipe.
Out Yesterday.


DENVER, COL, June 5.-The bustling
camp of Jimtown, which is separated
/ from the'famous mining town of Creole
| by mile and half. was almost totally
destroyed by fire, which started at half
past five o'clock this morning. The
flames were started by an explosion of
coal oil, with which family living in
the Kinneway block, were starting a
fire to prepare breakfast.
As there was no fire department, the
flames had it all their own way and in
short time they burned through the
rows OF frame buildings for distance
eff mile in the narrow gulch in which
the town is situated. Many houses were
blown up with giant powder in an at
tempt TO stop the fire but this had no
effect, for the flames leaped from one
vacant space TO another and only
stopped for the want Of material. Little
If any of the contents were saved and
and there are hundreds of families
homelesa, but they will be provided for
by the pc ople of Creole.
The total loss is estimated million dol

Mr.. Editor-I notice in the

Democrat that the editor stated
that they had gotten out two
thousand copies and that it was
insufficient to supply the wants
of the people. Now, if the au-
thor of this bold-faced assertion
will come to upper Sampson we
can return to him a good part of
these papers that have never
been read or ever taken from
the Office. How many copies of
same issue of this filthy little
sheet do they think it requires
for one man 1? I received four
of the boosted 1000 copies my
self while my neighbor was
equally Disguised with the same

get the hundreds of copies of it
that are now lying over In the

will learn that two thousand
