COLUMBUS, O., November 20.-Two
strange women, with bonds OF peculiar
relation, appeared at the City Infrmary
Office for assistance this evening. One
was rather good-looking brunette,
perhaps twenty-six years OF age, while
the other was still younger, and carried
q young baby in her arms.
The older of the two related re-
markable story to DR.. Stien amid tears.
They had arrived in this city at 11:20
Yesterday morning, and had tramped
the city over to find young man by
the name of CARRIER Warner, whose
address was given them as 1907
North Twentieth street. Weary and
footsore they had wandered into the
office of the kind-hearted Infirmary Di-
rector as last resort. A peculiar and
remarkable tie bound the women's
friendship. Miss Dale Devault, the
Younger of the two, was the mother Of
the child she carried, while the other
woman is a sister of its father. The
yoang girl is the daughter of Farmer
Devault, respectable resident Of Lon
don, who drove her from home In her
misfortune. John McGrath was the
cause of her downfall, but did not stand
by her when in trouble. Dale Devault,
when refused the parental roof as she
neared the period of maternity, applied
for refuge at the home Of Mrs. Title
McGrath. wife of Hiram McGrath.
The husband, however, elected her
from the house. Mrs. McGrath could
not bear to see the girl, whose conf
dence had been betrayed by her broth
er John McGrath), turned out on the
mercles of a cold world while she was
in such deep trouble. But one thing
was left for her, and that was to desert
her home, and go with the unfortunate
girl. Her husband would not consent
to Miss Devault remaining
at his house, so the wife
quietly gathered all the money she
could find, and with the girl left her
home for Plain City, where the babe
was born. Their money gave out, and
Mrs. McGrath was compelled to go TO
work for a family named Warner.
There she remained about month, and
a son of the family told them to come
to this city, and they could get plenty
of work. The women are most anxious
to conceal themselves from Mrs. Nc
Grath'S husband. DR.. Stein gave them
relief, but has not decided what shall
be done with them further.

Matters of Interest Concerning West
Virginia Corporations.
There is complaint from along the
line Of the Ohio River road that the
noon trains are over-crowded.
1t is said that six of the nine piers for
the new B. 81 o. bridge at Harper's
Ferry are above the danger line from
floods in the Potomac river.
A party composed Of more than TWEEN
ty persons, in charge of two or three
engineers, have been at work for nearly
month completing the survey up
Meadow River. Some months ago the
survey was made above Ruper's, but for
some reason work was suspended. The
survey will now be pushed through to
Anderson. 1t is believed by many that
this road will be constructed at no very
distant day.-NichOLnS Chronicle
The running Of the c., L. & w, pas
senger trains into the Terminal station
is likely to be very popular thing for
the Wheeling patrons of that road, and
il must end Ia considerable Increase IN
the passenger business. Heretofore
many passengers who would ordinarily
take the c., L. & w. took another line
when possible, rather than go over to
Bridgeport. The c., L. & w. ought TO
increase its service as soon as possible.
The statement of the Norfolk and
Western Railroad Company, for the
month of Septemb Der, 1892, shows gross
earnings of S91s, 1916; expenses, In
GLIDING taxes, S601, 766.71; leaving net
earnings of S316, SOFAS, a decrease OF
50, 400. "a compared with the same
month OF September, 1891. For nine
months of the current fiscal year, net
earnings were 50, 439, 491.61, a decrease

In the case of the Laurel Fork and
Sand Hill Railroad against the West
Virginia Transportation Company,
Judge Boreman at Parkersburg decided
a novel and most important question.
The suit was for $4,000 damages
claimed by the Laurel Fork Railroad,
under a contract by which the Laurel
Fork Railroad leased its railroad and
property for ten years to the Transpor-
tatlon Company, TO be run and operated
by the Transportation Company. In
an opinion of some length and
great learning the Court holds that
under the decisions in Virginia, West
Virginia aud according to the settled
doctrine of the United States Supreme
Court, the contract was void for want OF
DC yer in the corporations to make such
coneract. 1t is held that there Is no
power W authority warranting such a
contrsct to be found either in the char
tiers of these two companies or the gen.
eral laws Of the State, and he fully sus-
taips the defense Of the Transportation
Company to the entire entent OF their
claims.

Probable Murder.

Lemuel Piersoll, an old citizen Of
Monroe county, Ohio, living at the
mouth Of Lippmann's run above Bares-
Vile, was found dead in his bed on
Tuesday last, shot through the body.
At first it was thought he had commit
ted suicide but no revolver could be
found on the premises. Lying on the
window near his bed was club and
butcher knife, evidently placed there
by him as weapons of defense against
an expected attack. 1t seems to be a
case Of murder, although the motive is
not apparent as he had but little money.
He lived the life of hermit in his lit
tie cottage and was about eighty years
of age. He was formerly a we'll known
steamboat man.

Imagine such al homogeneous scene,

/ simply give you this illustration to
show you more foreibly that cards and
religion are so dissimilar, and far
apart In al that they imply. If pray
ing is out Of place at card table, then
card-playing is out Of place in a Chris
tian home. The parlor card playing is
the most dangerous oil all. 1t is the
power OF cards that is wonderful, and
what is the faScination-the love of
chance. The great mania for gambling
that is sweeping over the country is
born, believe, Of the progressive Gu

of Forty-third street and the street Is
torn up to the county line. Work
has been delayed for some reason upon

DELEGATES FROM PORTLAND.
AS Result of Their Visit This Order Has
Gone to Pieces,

Yesterdays Boston journal says: The
Massachusetts, Prudential Order has gone
the waywhich all such so-called endow-
ment concerns must sooner or later go,
and now about 400 gullible individuals
in different parts of the country are left
to mourn it loss, OF rather their own. On
Tuesday afternoon the order filed petit
ton in the Suffolk county registry of
probate for a warrant in voluntary pro-
ceeding, which, in plain English, means
simply that the inevitable collapse has
come. John E. Gregg, clerk Of the guild
of the order, testifies that the petition
was authorized by vote of a majority
of the directors. They didn't want to do
it, but they had to. They were visited
on Tuesday morning by three delegates
from chapter of the order in Portland,
Me-, who, strangely enough, s'had had
their suspicious about something"
aroused. After an interesting and ami
mated discussion between the officials
of the order and these delegates, the
latter had their way, and settlement in
the insolvency court was decided upon.
