ITS zAR, SURF
TIE MISSING POTOMAC PRECINCT CONES TO
HAND.
Il Gives Patterson 10 and aas5--The COMMITTEES
Ne. Las. Night and Declared the Result
A Resolution Passed s Delegates
OF for Weston

The contest as to the nOmiAation for
assessor. country district, is settled in
favor Of Noah Zane.
The missing Potomac precinct came
to hand yesterday and stood ten votes
for Patterson, five for Zane and eleven
,or Blayney. This made Pattersons
total ], SOP, Zane's 1,ss3 and Biayney's
lisa, and gave Zane plurality OF sl.
It is now apparent how the first figures
Ient in from West Liberty were COM
piled. The report telephOned from
West Alexander Saturday night OF 4S
for Patterson, 10 for Zane and
6s for Blayney, supposed at the
time to be the vote Of Potomac alone, was
in reality the total vote Of Liberty dis
trict. as will be seen by adding the vote
of West Liberty, Potomac and valley
Grove together. No one thought OF this
during Sunday or Monday, and thus the
matter went along until the explsnation
came yesterday.
The County Committee met again last
evening and went over the Potomac
vote, and the complete returns, showing
the original count and the recount, are
given in the annexed table:

A NOTABLE MAN GONE.
Death of hon. j. w. Gallaher, Of Mounds
VILE, Yesterday.

Death of hon. j. w. Gallaher, OF Mounds
VILE, Yesterday.
Hon. J. w. Gallaher, Sr., died at Hot
Springs, Arkansas, yesterday afternoon
at half-past three o'clock, aged sixty-six
years.
The news will be heard with wide
spread regret by countless people in
Marshall, Wetzel and Ohio counties, as
we'll as over a wide section OF the State
at large.
Mr.. Gallaher went to Hot Springs
some weeks ago, hoping to benefit his
failing health, and about three weeks
ago was attacked with mild stroke Of
paralysis. The attack did not seem to
be of serious nature, and reassuring
kilograms were sent his relatives and
friends here and in Moundsville, but
there was not the prompt recovery
which was expected, and yesterday the
patient succumbed.
His son, j. w. Gallaher, Jr., was with
him, and will start for home with the
remains to-day.
Joseph w. Gallaher was native Of
Ohio county, being born here August
%, 1926. His father was John Gala
her, a native of Ireland, and his mother,
formerly Rachel Rust. native of Mary
land. In 1884, Mr.. Gallaher's parents
removed to Moundsville, where the sub
ject OF this sketch received his educa-
ton in the town schools and in the
Academy OF Revs. Nicholas Murray and
Irwin Carson. He embarked in bust
ness in 1s4S, and continued in merchan-
dising for forty-two years, his immense
establishment being known far and wide
throughout Marshall and the lower por-
tion of Belmont counties. He early
took an interest In politics, and was one
of the foremost leaders OF the Democra-
cy of Marshall, while at times he had a
wide influence over the State. His first
office was term of six years in the
Marshall County Court. Later he was
Mayor of Moundsvlle, and in 1856 was
Presidential Elector on the Fill
more ticket. After the close OF
the war he was among the
first to undertake the work of reogan-
izing nthe Democratic party in West
Virginia. and for ten years or more he
was member of the State Executive
Committee. In 1868 he was a delegate
and vice-president from West Virginia
to the Democratic National Convention
which nominated Horatio Seymour, and
in 1872 he was one Of the representatives
to the Constitutional Convention, serv-
ing with distinction upon committees on
taxation, finance, corporations, educa-
tion, etc. In 1875 he was named by
Governor Jacob as one Of the three COM
missioners so equalize the valuation OF
the lands of the State. For ten years he
was president of the Board of Directors
OF the Penitentiary. AS public speak
er he was strong, eloquent and convinc-
ing.
The deceased was married November,
1866, to Emily j., daughter OF Col. John
Thompson, Of Belmont county, o., and
two sons were born to them, j. w.
Gallaher, Jr. and John T. Gallaher.

Utterly Unreliable.

A sensational publication stated yes
terday that Murderer William Maier
was 'breaking down." and that Sheriff
Steenrod had called on minister and
induced him to go and see the prisoner.
Then followed a long rigamarole OF a
historical character. Sheriff Steenrod
stated last evening he did not go to see
minister yesterday or any
other day, aud at the Jail it was stated
no minister was at the Jail yesterday to
see Maier. Monday morning early, be-
fore the prisoners were let out OF their
cells, minister called and left Bible
with Maier, talking with him about two
minutes. THE gentleman was not in
the building over three minutes" said

RAILROAD COLLISION.
c., L. n w. and @. & p. Freight Trains
Come Together at Beliaire,

A collision occurred at Bellaire about
$40 o'clock last night, which caused
the destruction OF considerable property
and almost caused loss OF life.
TwoC., L. & w. and C. & P. engines
coming In op posite directions met at the
crossing at the foot Of Gravel Hill.
Both engineers had reversed their en-
gines, but could not slack up sufficient
to prevent the accident. The c., L. &
w. engine was badly wrecked, and the
other engine twisted out Of shape.
Walter Hineman, engineer of the c., L.
& w. train, escaped without injury. j.
G.. Tibbs, his fireman. was badly injured
about the back. and afterward removed
to his home back of Bridgeport. The
other engineer. Henry Weigle, sus-
tanned severe sprain Of his ankle.
Two c., L. & w. cars were thrown
from the track and completely demol-
ished.
The accident was the result of q con-
troyersy as to which engine had the
right of crossing first. When several
lives are sacrificed the question will
probably be determined.

How to Tell Horses age for Dead
Sure

How to Tell Horses age for Dead
Sure.
Does anyone want a certain, sure,
never-failing method Of telling horses
age. So? Then do as hostler did on
the South Side did the other day when
a question arose as to the age OF a GER
tain animal in the stable.
Taking hair from the tail OF the
horse, the hOStler passed one end
through plain gold ring making long
loop, one end of which he graSped firm
ly between the thumb and fore-fnger OF
the right hand. Lowering the ring into a
glass tumbler half full Of water, he then
steadily Z 1915 : ggpntil the ring
cleared G3SSSszr. For the
space OF S55 sSsond or so,
the ring was peTTftsSly motionless.
Then a short, almost imperceptible vi
bration began, which, gathering mo-
mentum with each successive swing,
soon knocked against the side OF the
tumbler. One, two, three, four, five
times did the ring rap up against the
tumoler's side, and then stopped short.
There" said the hostler, leach Of
those raps means one year OF the horses
age. The horse is. therefore, five years
old. The crowd who witnessed the sx-
pertinent laughed, and the proprietor
smiled as che winked the other eye"
Confdentially, the proprietor told the
reporter that he bought the horse for a
seven-year-Old, and never before doubt
ed but what that was his age. "Here-
after, though saih the proprietor, "he
is a five-year-o,d, and that goes"
