HUNTINGTON, w. Va, Oct. ga hor-
rlble ARRAY occurred Guyandotte, two
miles from this place, at 2 O'Clock this
afternoon, which resulted in the death
OF one man and the wounding of another.
The ARRAY eliminated just in front of
the Methodist Episcopal church, when
the people were entering for worship
and created the widest excitement
among the congregation. Owen Pleas
ant and Willard Wellman were formerly
partners as BARRIERS, but quarreled and
separated. About quarter of ? O'Clock
Wellman met Pleasant and asked him
Tor dollar he claimed was due him.
The latter disputed the account and a.
quarrel resulted, Welman pulling a
knife aud dangerously stabbing Pleas
ant in the right side Wellman then
ran and was pursued by Pleasant who
when opposite the church, drew a re-
volver and shot Wellman through tle
mead, killing him instantly.

A Son of Adam.

On the one hand, Col Breckinridge's
friends continue to write cards, demand
ing that he be not condemned unheard,
while on the other they make themselves
a mouthpiece for a newspaper defense,
defense that carries conviction to the
very enter of incredibility.
By Adams specious plea, precedent
cited by his SHINING and sinful SONS in
every generation, since that first slip,
mid the sensuous surroundings of the
flower perfumed bowers of Eden's Cars
den, Col. Breckenridge seeks to save his
reputation at the expense of Miss Pol
lard's character, thing she, herself
hath so far ceased to prize, as to with
wanton hands fling it, like bauble,
from her.
''The woman sinned first" cries this
true son of fallen first sire. "She
tempted me and | did eat.''
There is no disposition to prosecute an
innocent man, but Congressman Breck~
inridge is either martyr or hypocrit,
and Kentucky whose honor is wounded
in this faint upon his good name, has a
right to know which that she may shield
a worthy son or chastise reprobate who
has been masquerading in sleeps cloth
ing to her shame.
The fact the plaintiffs sin is establish
ed out of her own mouth; the conyic-
ton of the defendant is all but accom-
plished byt he daily bulletins emanating

tale, tell it quickly and once having told

tion there today, and it will be until the
desired relief shall have been secured.
Prominent people connected with the
commercial bodies OF Seattle and Ia
coma. and also of Victoria, Vancouver
and New Westminster on the Canadian
side of the line, have declared their in
tentiOn to attend the st. Paul conven
ton, and to lift their voices in protest
against perpetuation of the present
eXtortlonate tribute to the monopoliSts
who profit by the protective tariff rates
that block international commerce. So
the associated committees of the various
bodies of st. Paul that have been en-
trusted with the responsible work of
bringing about the reciprocity conven-
ton feel confident that it will not only
be largely attended, but that it will re-
suit in so stimulating the incipient
sentiment that the proposed treaty will
become a fact at as early day as pos
sible.
John Keen, of Spokane, who is the
president of the Gold Nugget Mining
company, was recently in this city, and
he unqualiiedly said that the people of
Spokane are thoroughly aroused to the
Importance of the movement, and that
big delegation from there will GER
tainly be here. They are especially
earnest, for the reason that they have a
large smelter that is now idle because
of the tariff. To explain, the United
States wages heavy tax upon the rich
silver-lead ores of the Kootenai country,
and the Dominion tariff is also so high
that it prevents the use as fiuX to mix
with the more refractory ores of the
United States side of the boundary line,
the matte ore of the Canadian mines.
The refractory ore needs this soft ore to
make the smelling process profitable.
Therefore there is no danger that Spo-
kane will not heartily enter into the
spirit of the occasion and send dele
gaLion to the coming convention.

The WEST IS ALERT
And Wide Awake to the I'M
mense Possibilities OF
Reciprocity.
Prospects Are Flattering for
the Success Of the June
Convention.
Sentiment Of the Northwest
Is Fast Crystallizing In
to Shape.
Information From Widely
Diverse Sections Shows
the Drift Of Opinion.

The prospects, general and particular,
for the Canada United States reciprocity
convention. that is to be held in this
city OIL the 5th OF June, is most promis-
ing of salutary results. The entire
Northwest is certainly aroused, and the
Democratic principles that were so
effectively enunciated in the last cam
paign have proven gratifyingly fruitful.
1t is a long step toward the ultimate
abolition of the high tariff extortion that
has held the country IN bands of steel
under Republican domination.
st. Paul, irrespective of political affil-
iation, is in lire. The leading business
men and citizens have mounted the
band wagon, and are now enlisted in
the cause for the common veal. The
local committee is leaving no stone un-
turned to make the event the turning
point in the political history of the
country, and advices indicate that the
Canadian people, if not the Dominion
government, are in close sympathy with
the movement. The relations in COM
mon between the two nations-nations
that seem destined at some time to
coalesce-are so Identical, and their IN
terests are so similar, that it seems to
the ordinary man, at least, the acme of
folly to further combat or to try to stem
the natural tide of public sentiment that
has so emphatically set In tavorlng
reciprocal treaty that shall relegate the
extortionate tariff duties that were i'm
posed because of the policy of the Re-
publican party
To Protect the Millionaires
and impoversh the lesser industries
and the people in general. The local
committee is making every preparation
to make the convention just as effect
ual as possible. A meeting was held at
the Commercial clubs handsome rooms
yesterday afternoon, but the attendance
was rather small, and consequently no
positive steps were taken. The meet
ing adjourned until Tuesday afternoon,
when it is hoped full attendance will
be had. At this meeting, however, sew
eral interesting and gratifying letters
were read, and they were placed on file.
Among the number was one from a
prominent member of the Winona board
of trade. 1t reads:
81 note in st. Paul papers that move
ments are being made in relation to the
reciprocity convention to be held in
your city June and 6. The board of
trade of this city last summer appointed
very strong, influential delegation to
the convention held at Grand Forks in
September. But few were able to at
tend that convention. Some did, how
ever, and fine report was made in eur

WILL PLAY MAYOR,
And Try and Stop Posting S how
Bills in Windows.

There was but little business to come be-
fore the real estate exchange yesterday ct the
regular meeting, and after the routine work
had been disposed of the subject
of Autographs i'll store windows was
taken up and discussed. 1t was de-
cided that tae appearance of the city dur
ing the coming real estate convention would
be greatly improved by preventing the plac
ing of theatrical posters and autographs in
store windows. 1t was also stated that the
men who are in the employ of the theaters
are in the habit OF entering vacant stores
with the assistance of skeleton keys. AT the
conclusion of the discussion com lnittee,
consisting of Messrs. Herr, Thomas, Learned,
Snow and Wall, was appointed to wait on the
mayor and request him to cause o cessation
of this manner of decorating store windows.
The mayor was out of the city, and they
were told by Mr.. Handy that he would not
return until Monday. Mr.. Handy, however,
agreed with the members of the committee
that il was essential that a stop should be
put to this manner of distributing advertise
ments. and he agreed to look into the matter
thoroughly and take whatever action would
he proper.

consolation for Mr.. and Mrs G. G. Hcadly,

The members of the Wichita agency of
the New York Life Insurance company
unite in deepest sympathy for their CO.
laborer, Mr. c. c. Hoadly and his wife in
their sore bereavement in the loss of little
Gladys.
We know that words contain but little
comfort for the broken heart In a sad hour
like this, they also express but family our
feelings, Most of US knew little Gladys,
whom to know was to love, and we fully
realize the gloom which must at ut this
sad hour fill the home which her smiling
face, witty sayings. and happy loving dis
position ever made so bright ana cheerful.
Comfort at time like this can come
only from confidence in and an obedience
to Him who wiz gather us all home at
last where heart aches are are no more.
Alas otis hard, oh, very hard, to feel.
That she is dead. But tits not well,
That We should mourn with bitter tears
her flight;
Thus early from the earth, for she is now,
A lovely blossom on the Tree of Life.
Blooming forever in God's paradise"
