Knife and Revolver Used.

The following account of the stab
bling Of one and shooting of another
prominent young man both of whom
are well known here is from the
Waynesburg Democrat.
On last Sunday Mr. Snider Lem
ley, son of Samuel Lemley, a wealthy
w. Va. farmer who resides about
two miles from Mt. Morris, became
engaged in an imbroglio with John
Wright, of the same community.
The trouble commenced at Buckeye
church but the parties did not come
to blows until near Wright's home,
young Wright striking and cutting
Lemley with knife when Lemley
drew revolver and fired at his assail-
ant,the ball striking the point of the
hip bone, glancing backward making
an ugly wound but not considered Sc
rious. If the ball had struck one half
inch above or to the front it would
undoubtedly have been fatal.
We understand the boys had all
been imbibing too freely of fire water
and thus have brought sorrow upon
themselves and friends. Thousands
of poor mothers hearts have been
wrnng sore on account of the drink

There is now no doubt but that
the West Virginia liar has taken to
drink. The following is his latest
from Parkersburg:
"a few weeks ago dispatches from
below stated that sea serpent was
alarming people down the Ohio river.
Boating parties here during the past
week have been greatly frightened
by the appearance of the monster
with head as big as barrel. The
freak has been variously described
at s to 15 feet long. appearing to be
floating on the surface of the river,
often near Nealet island When ap-
preached the monster would dive
with great commotion of the waters,
making heavy waves that were dan
gerous to open boats.
Last night party of a dozen
prominent young people, who are en-
tirely reliable, were out in large
boat when the monster suddenly APP
peared, crossing the river in front of
them. They were panic-stricken
and made frantic efforts to get away
from the locality without making an
investigation. Parties living along
the river state that the monster can
be seen daily, showing most conspi-
cuously when heading up the river,
and apparently changing it's abode
frequently. All descriptions of the
strange monster agree, and the truth
of the story is not doubted in this
locality"

Novelties in Ladies' Outing Costumes.

At this season of the year when so
many ladies are planning their prospee-

naturally arises in regard to an appro-

sess. moreover, well ordered ward
robe presupposes in addition, an out

Michigan has an equal space and
all the provinces of Canada com
bined an equal space, but the latter
not on a main isle. It has attracted
much attention and it is hard to
make timber men from other sec
tions believe we have such timber in
such quantities DIR. Millspaugh has
issued a souvenief card giving the
following information: The exhibit
represents our commercial timber in
the usual log run quality and size
There are no monstrosities or rare
forms included, but simply timber
that can be had by the car load if
desired or by the hundred acres by
those desiring to purchase land.
West Virginia is particularly rich
in fancy cabinet forms. the sscurls''
and figures in the hard woods be-

two thirds of the State is still Gov
cred with dense hard wood forests,
full half of which is underlaid with
