THE CORoNER's INQUEST.
The Jury Bring in Verdict in
Accordance with the Facts.

The coroner's jury empaneled
to investigate the death of D. L.
Huntsman held an inquest Tues
day afternoon. Several witnesses
were examined but nothing new
was developed. Mrs. Hattie Niegel,
an eye witness described the
shooting, and her story was substan-
TALLY the same as the GAzETTE's
account of the affair. Police
Captain Schlemmer testified that
Herring admitted that he shot
Huntsman. The jury brought in
a verdict to the effect that the de-
ceased died from the effect of gun
shot wounds inflicted by August
Herring. The following is the
report of Drs. Wood and Peterson,
who made the autopsy:
"At your request, we, the under
signed held an autopsy on the body
of D. L. Runtsman, deceased, who
died at the Queens Hospital this 3
A. NJ. Said autopsy was held II 80
A. NJ. to day.
I'VE find the track of projectile
passing from without, inward and
slightly upward through the soft
tissues everything the lilac bone
little above the hip joint; through
the bone and lilac and psoas muscles
within, and perforating the intes-
tines in three places. AS result
there were found within the abdomen
blood and the products of infamma-
ton sufficient cause of death.
"Also found the path of proiectile
passing from without inward aud
slightly upward through the upper
jaw just beneath the nasal septum
and into the basilar proscess at the
base of the skull, the projectile and
pieces of bone fell within the skull
before the exploring finger. 1t is
our opinion that had not the first
mentioned cause of death existed,
the last named wound would proba-
bly, have resulted in death. Grains
of powder were found in the skin of
the face"
THE FUNERAL.
The funeral of the late D. L. |
Huntsman took place Tuesday |
afternoon from the Queens Hospi- !
tai. The funeral services were held |
in a small chapel contiguous to the
main building, DR.. Beckwith of the
Central Union Church officiating.
Many friends of the dead man and
others were present at the hospital
grounds when the casket was placed
in the hearse. 1t was draped with
an American flag and covered with
flowers from sympathetic hands.
Company A, of the National
Guard, turned out almost to a man
to pay their last respects to their
comrade. The funeral
procession was led by the Hawaiian
band, then came the firing party
with reversed arms; next in line
were the members of Company A,
and DR.. Beckwith following; then
the hearse with pail bearers on
each side. Friends in carriages
brought up the rear. The body was
in Nuuanu cemetery with
honors.

Democratic Authority.

While Democratic penny-a-liners
are prating about the present troubles
being caused by laws enacted by Re
publicans, it is refreshing to read in
the intensely Democratic New York
Sun
Last year, in a season of general
prosperity such as never blessed ma
ton living in the light of civilization,
the prevailing industrial system was
condemned with an almost revolution
airy show of disapproval. All visible
facts argued for popular verdict dl-
rectlv opposite to that deliberately re-
corded by the immense majority.
And in the New York Won't, the
leading Democratic newspaper of the
country
Until the financial question is settled.
and in the present condition of bust
ness, there must be 10 tariff agitation.
It is vitality important that no issue
should be raised that will increase the
apprehension already felt.
Even that radically Democratic free
trade journal, the New York Evening
Post, says:
We are willing, in the first place, to
admit that anticipation oftariffcllanges
may have had its influence in inducing
caution among manufacturers. f: =.
pectation of such legislation, whether
slight or radical, must i'll a measure
operate thus.
Yet our neighbor, the Statesman,
SAYS: "All the efforts OF the Martins
burg HERALD to saddle the present
financial conditions upon the Demo-
cratic administration is too silly to
talk about" Wise head

About Peaches.

Peaches are tonic, an aperient, a
food and drink combined, or to put
it briefly, they are meat and medicine.
A good meal may be made on cut
peaches, with sugar and cream, bread
and butter. After a meal of this va
riety person will feel more like at
tending to the duties of the afternoon
than if he or she INDUCED in heavy
foods. Peaches are good before
breakfast and after dinner; they are
good for the digestion, good for the
blood, and good for the complexion
Some people eat them without cream
or sugar and with good result. Tie
fruit is SO rich in sugar and acid that
it preserves its flavor long time, but
to get the full benefit it should be
eaten as soon as it is cut.-Williams-
port Transcript.

urge him, like that drummer boy of
Marengo, to let you beat Just one

him how you beat such charge for

sheep scampering to the slaughter

Sire, did beat such charge against
the wooden manufacturers, and see how
their factories are topping all over
the country; oh, Sire, did beat such
a charge against the cotton manufac-
turers, and see how they are closing
their doors and turning their army
of unemployed workmen out into the
street; Oh, Sire, did beat such a
charge against the gold standard and
monometallism in favor of free COIN
age and unlimited silver. and look
how our securities are flocking home
for redemption. how the banks of New
York and all over the country have
been brought to the verge OF ruin and
idle workmen are being fed in the

Mr.. Speaker, he won't do it. ! tell
you, my young friend, the Man of

as we all did, the beautiful imagery

speech, splendid in all except the
soundness of its premises and the
logic Of its conclusions. Laughter.
He will place his hand on your head
and say; My young friend, that was
very well before election, but we won't
have any charges beat just now.

go to work and learn how to beat
a first-class retreat, That is what we
shall want. For | assure you, my
friend, that the Man of Destiny has
already observed the omens of the
times, and he will whisper in your
ear that Marengo is a long way be-
hind that the victory of 1899 was
nothing but spasmodie return from
Elba; that he already hears the
ground rumblings of the Waterloo of
1894. Applause on the Republican

Financial matters at the World S
Exposition are looking brighter. Vice
President Peck, chairman of the f.
nance committee, says that there will
soon be no floating debts The entire
amount due contractors is now some
thing less than $500, 600, and a few
more days will suffice to wipe that
out. 1t is said that if the general pre-
diction of increased attendance from
now on is realized the fair will close
an unprecedented success-finaneial-
ly and every other way. The finance
committee is considering the advisa.
bility Of recommending the payment
OF third installment of 10 or 20 per
cent on debenture bonds. The total

SLIGHTLY PREVIOUS.

And it has come to this The States
man says, Gentlemen. probably you
have not lived long enough amongst
us to know that the people of Berke-
ley County are no fools.
Carpet baggers, Ell! Well, really,
we did not expect it SO soon We
looked for it later on as dsyneiy res
sort, but could not for a moment he
lieve the 6ete noiy would be trotted out
just now.
Oh, no, we never, for moment,
harbored thought that any of the
good people of Berkeley County are
not in their right minds. On the
contrary we have known for many,
many years that this beautiful Valley
was inhabited by people whose
hearts fill Their whole bodies and whose
minds are as bright as the stars in the
heavens.
How did we know this? Lend us
your ear and listen moment. Years
and years ago, when this Valley was
a wilderness, when the war whoop of
the red man echoed from mountain to
mountain, when the smoke Of his
camp fire, and his wigwam in the
valleys was the only indication of
humanity, the ancestors of the senior
member of the HERALD firm settled
here and added their brain and Drawn
to that of other sturdy pioneers in
producing that high civilization for
which the Valley is famous the world
over.
During the war for independence
they fought valiantly to bring that
struggle to a successful termination,
with what result the editor of the
Statesman is probably aware.
Later on, some of them emigrated
westward and found homes in the val
ley of the beautiful Ohio. Some at
tanned e,ninence as statesman and ju-
rists, others took to business or litera-
ture. One of the family was the first
governor of West Virginia and honor
ably filled seat in the United States
Senate. Your humble servant has fl
nally returned to claim his own, a
home in the Shenandoah Valley, and
right royalty has he been welcomed
everybody except a few individuals
has met him with a hearty welcome,
and the clasp of the hand proves that
they meant what they said. Being a
native West Nirginian he is proud OF
his State and happy TO know that the
people of the Eastern Panhandle ap-
preciate his effort to assist i'll giving o
them the best newspaper published in
the Valley.
The junior editor is native of our
sister State, Maryland, has lived all
his life south of Mason and Dixon S
Line, is Southern in sentiment and in
full sympathy with the people of this
section. For two hundred years his
family has borne an honorable record
as citizens of the Great American Re-
public and stands to-day without a
blot or stain on its fair escutcheon.
For further particulars inquire of his
cousin, Governor Pattison, of Penn
sylvania.
