WEST VIRGINIA POLITICS.
Things Are Not Always What they Seem. Almost
Never are in Politics.

Never are in Politics.
IParkesburg SsntiNal
The man who could moralize like
Jack Bunbsy could coin enough max
inns out Of the present political situa-
ton in West Virginia to last until the
Umbria sinks, Or get to shore.
II may be set down as true that
nothing much is going to be thought
Of, Or talked about in politics until the
senatorial matter is settled, and that
may require an extra session.
Senator Faulkner now knows that
the more man sometimes works in
politics the more he don't get any
anything for it. The fellow that lays
in the shade is just as apt to get the
best meal at the table as the fellow
that swings the cradle all day mors
so sometimes,
The intersection Of John ]. Davis in
to the senatorial race IS diversion.
If any extremist is to be elected all the
kings horses cant keep Billy Wilson
from walking off with it. He is not
candidate, 50 they say, but if a dark
horse is suddenly to befome white.
one look out for the Jefferson county
bird.
a rumor comes from Charleston that
the new deal recognizes the inevitable
in the case Of Senator Kenna, and the
arrangement now made contemplates
the election Of Camden to succeed
Faulkner, and Joe Chiffon is toinherit
Kenna's place. This will work all
right in favor Of the first one elected,
but when the election Of the first one is
made the combine win bust, they ali
ways do. a spectat6F at the late Dem
ocratic State Convention In Parkers-
burg had an ocular demonstration Of
this political truth. Don't dicker in
politics unless your pay is to come first.

never can do it as long as Billy Wilson

The third bull appeared, an animal with
splendid horns, and very brave; ii slew
four horses, received the banderillas, and
became furious.
Then, contrary to custom, all tho tor
reros retired from the ring, leaving tho
bull stamping about, and shaking tho
bloody darts that hung from his neck.
All at once 4 long whistle was heard.
The bull paused and listened. II was

BURNED TO THE GROUND.
Ia. Keubler Picture Frame FACTORY in Ashes LOIS
About $4,000.

Tas Keubler Picture Frame Factory in Ashes Los
About $4,000.
The Keubler Picture Frame factory,
located on the M. M. M. Il /. Co, adj
dition, was yesterday afternoon de-
str,yed BY fire. Mr.. Keubler and his
employees left the factory at about
$3.50 o'clock, every thing was all right
at that time. At a little after four
o'clock fire was discovered in the fac
tory, but as the factory was located a
long distance from the city water-mains
little or nothing could be done to save
either the building or its contents,
which are a total loss. The flames
began on the first floor, and fed BY the
large amount Of dry lumber, which
was stored in the building, soon leaped
to the second floor, and then to the
roof. Within very short while after
the FIRE began the roof fell in and the
destruction was complete. Mr.. Al. F.
Keubler, the proprietor, places his loss
on the machinery, stock and materials
at about $4,000 with no insurance.
The origin Of the fire is unknown.
This industry was an entirely new one
in our town. and was just getting un
der good Roadway. Mr.. Keubler has
orders placed far ahead, and was max
ing arrangements to start in full blast
in few days.

MILAN. at 4 depth Of eighty feet below

unworn for long time the gems lost
their color and became " sick, and the
experts were unanimous in declaring
that the only means by which they

THE sEEATORsHIP.

Senator FauIknsr's Friends Think He win snccesd
Himself.
The announcement that there would
Be organized opposition to the re-elec-
ton of Senator Faulkner caused a
good deal Of discussion in Washington.
It has been the general belief in Wash
ington that Senator Faulkner would
have no serious opposition, and the
Charleston dispatches caused surprise.
Much doubt was expressed regarding
the truth Of the report that ex-senator
Camden was in the fight against
Faulkner as it was thought his letter
Of last spring Withdrew him from the
race. The reports have not disturbed
Senator Faulkners friends and they
express the utmost confidence that he
will be reelected by safe majority
when the time comes.

What He Predicts on the Opening Month Of
the Year
A regular storm period is central on
January LIST, which promises distnr-
bance Of. q marked and violent type.
The Venus Equinox, at its crisis, will
blend with that Of Mercury, to prolong
and greatly intensity the disturbance
normally due between the LIST and the
9th. We will name the I'd to 9TH as
central danger days, and admonish all
whose business requires personal ex-
posture, to exercises all proper watch
fulness on and about these dates Biz
yards with sweeping winds and snow
blockades are very apt to prevail in all
paris Of the country subject to such
yisitations. About, if not quite, the
coolest waves Of the winter IS liable to
follow during the disturbance of this
period, and to dominate the whole
country in the days following up to
the reactionary changes about the 9Th
and 9th. Renewed cold win follow
these reactionary storms.
The next regular period is from the
18th to the 18TH Look for return
Of rain and snow at any period, and
be fully prepared, as before, for very
great cold to attend and follow after
the storms.
II there be areaction from the great
cold to follow after the storms Of the
last period, it will come on and about
the 10th or 21st, in which event there
will be more rain and snow, and the.
regular rush Of cold will follow promp-
tly up to the entrance Of the next
regular storm period.
About the 24th, indications Of the
last regular storms Of the month will.
begin. Southerly winds and rising
temperature, with perhaps considera-
BILE thawing, win admonish Of ap.
Nproaehing storms. The danger DAYS
are 24th 10 28th The inevitable cold
wave win come in behind these recu-
lar storms, insVing cold weather I'D

Throughout the entire Union, = says
the Roanoke Record, .sbut especially
on the border Of Virginia, West Viz
ginia, Kentucky and Tsnnesse, the
name Of Bill Baldwin; the famous
detective. Is s familiar as household
words, and no man is more dreaded
BY the laWiess element who infest the
mountain wilds Of those regions
a little over SIX years ago, without
any preliminary training, Baldwin
answered an advertisement for de
tectivu, and soon gave evidence that
he had discovered his vocation. He
speedily achieved reputation which
made him and his services In great de-
mand. Gentlemanly in manners, quiet
in demeanor, slenderly built, he is the
last man who would be taken for the
famous detective who has faced the
pistols and Winchesters Of the most
desperate mountainous and killed and
captured some Of the most notorious
desperadoes Of the age.
But his slender frame Is knit with
sinews Of steel, his qniet demeanor COW
ers q courage which neye quails, his
GOODNESS is never ruffled, and in addi-
ton his reputation as dead shot Is
such, that few Of the boldest criminals
care to face dim.
Mr.. Baldwin has for some time been
the principal detective Of the Norfolk
and Western Railroad Company, and
has recently transferred his headquar-
tiers to Roanoke, and fitted up ali
Office there.
The principal ornaments Of his rooms
are hand cuffs, shaekles, Winchesters,5
portraits Of noted criminals, &c. In a
little cabinet are stored souvenirs.

criminal, also the confession Of Ellison

perado, who was also killed piece

ssoHoMIsH. Sept. i4.-tSpeciai. l-At the
opening of the Robinson murder trial this
morning, County Surveyor Carothers was
called to the stand as the first witness.
He testified as TO the accurateness Of q
map OF the scene of the murder. and then
gave way TO ]. II. Kuntz, the prosecuting
witness. The latter's testimony had not
gone far when counsel for the defense
raised the point of insufiiciency Of the in
dictment charging Robinson with being
an accessory TO the crime committed.
Counsel contended that under the Wash
ington and California statutes the indict-
ment must allege the crime and particular
circumstances. Counsel for the prosecu-
tion held that n reasonable narration of
accessible facts was all that was necessary
under his Interpretation of the same au-
thorities. Then followed citations OF both
sides. consuming nearly an hour. at the
end of which time the court adjourned
until 30 tomorrow morning, when argu-
ment on the same point will be resumed.
