millionaire Gone.


The late ex-senator Fair accumulated
about s4O,OOO0O0 in about twenty
years, and three-fourths of all this in
about ten years. His start and great
part OF his wealth came from mining
and speculation in mining properties,
but great deal was the result Of good
real estate investments. There is q
theory that no man can make so much
money honestly in so short time, bu.
the theory has never been established
by proof.
Mr.. Fair was an industrious man Of
capacity for business, and on top Of it
all he had such good fortune as falls to
few men. He was one OF the Bonanza
kings, all Of whom piled up the millions
very fast. Mr.. Fair was interested in
the building OF the Ohio River road,
and may have been with Senator Cam.
den in other projects in West Virginia.
A feature Of this millionaire's will
shows that he was a provident business
man to tho last. He declares that he is
unmarried, having been divorced, and
that he has no children except those he
has provided for. but to save trouble he
provides a pequest Of $4,000 to any
body who may establish claim to be
his widow and an equal amount to any
persons who may be declared by law to
be his children.
So that anybody who may take no.
ton to contest the will on these
grounds knows just how much is to be
expected in case of success. Among
other things this protects the heirs from
attempts to blackmail.

The Gren. Investigation.

The Lexow investigation has come to
a close, after having closed the career OF
some important persons in the New
York police department, q feat that was
accomplished by laying bare the cor.
ruption in which that department has
been stepped.
Another direct result Of the commit
tees work is the overthrow OF Tammany
at the polls. 1t required just such a
stirring up OF offensive odors to move
to action the lethargic people OF that
great city.
No investigation in this country has
developed more hideous wrongs under
cover OF law. 1t was shown beyond the
shadow OF doubt that vice OF every
form had police protection by paying
for it. As a logical result the whole
police department must be reorganized
on other lines and with other men.
II this were not done the city would
be robbed of the greater part Of the
benefit of the investigation. That it
will be done there can be no question.
The people demand it and the Republi-
can legislature will be glad to grant the
popular demand.

Years HnsIness Failures.

Tho business failures OF the year as
reported by Bradstreet's are l2,72l
against 1850 last year. Tho total
assets were s79,OOo0OO, total liabilities
$4,000. 1000.
The number OF failures in West Vir-
ginia increased from G9 in 1898 to 70 in
in 1894, but the liabilities for this year
arc only 1920, 900 against s7S2, 900 for last
year, with assets in 1904 Of S2l6,O0O
agains, $3SS,OO0 in 1893.
Bradstrect's notes that in addition to
the failures. as that term is usually
understood, hard times drove many
others ont Of business and prevented
the starting Of new enterprises, so that
tho yoar closes with about 5000 less
concerns in business than this time a
year ago. Under normal conditions in

The Notice to the Heads of All the do.

The Notice to the Heads of All the do.
ceses Served by Mgr. satolii.
WASHINGTON, D. G., Dec. 3O.-The
manner of executing the Catholic
church edict against membership in the
Knights of Pytbias, Odd Fellows and
other societies, announced exclusively
through the Associated Press. is now
receiving the careful consideration OF
the church authorities.
Mgr. Sasolli has transmitted the de-
cisioD to the heads OF all dioceses
throughout the country, and it remains
for them to convey it to parish priests
and for the latter to give it practical
application and execution. each having
considerable latitude as to how he shall
act. No time is set within which tho
heads OF diocese may act; some already
have notified their parish priests to
read the prohibition to congregations
to-day at the announcements preceding
masses.
Other bishops have not required
public announcement to congregations,
as the communication from Rome and
from Mgr. satolli did not direct a formal
publication. and these may make 1t ell
feCtiye largely through the confessional.
1t therefore may take some time Tor the
Papal decree 10 become fully effective
and to reach those persons who con-
tinue their membership after the order
OF the church becomes known.
Communion is not taken, necessarily,
more than once a wear, though it is Gus.
tomary with most Catholics to take the
communion, to which confession Is an
absolute essential. at Easter. Other
means, however, are at hand for speed
ily carrying the papal order into prac-
ticsl effect. There are published lists
OF the Knights OF Pythias and other
societies, so that Catholic members OF
them are readily asceriainabte. Should
these members remain away from con.
fession beyond year, they would
thereby cut themselves of from the
church. II they attended confession,
they would voluntarily abandon their
society connections and receive ahsolu-
ton, or else be examined on the sub.
iect, and, on refusing to abandon their
connections, absolution would be with
held. This would also operate to cut OIL
the church member from communion
and, therefore, IRON membership in the
church. No formal accommodation
would be requisite.
it's pointed out that the church de-
cision will be more important in keep
ing Catholics from joining the prohibit
cd societies in the future. In this re-
spect the church authorities say the de-
cision should not be construed rs against
the Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows,
etc, but only as a rule OF conduct en-
Joined on members of the church.
whereby the church retains control of
the conscience OF its members instead OF
letting them DO bound by secret oaths.

primaries:


The Democrats say that il there had
been primary election in the Eighth
ward the total vote for mayor would
have reached 1000. Give them that
and their vote of Saturday still falls
more than 1000 short Of the vote cast
for mayor at the Republican primaries.
The Democrats say further that ii 1t
had not been for the cold weather their
vote would have been larger, how much
larger they could not say. The weather
was not 40 cold that men, women and
children did not 20 about on business
and pleasure. But the Democrats may
have another thousand on account OF
the cold weather, and they still fall
short Of the Republican vote by thou
sand. The election Of the Republican
ticket by thousand majority would
not be surprising. The explanation is
that there are not so many Democrats
in Wheeling as there used to be.
The vote by wards is OF decided inter-
est. There is not a ward in the city in
which the Democrats polled on
Saturday as many votes us the
Republicans pollel at their pri-
mary. The vote in the Fifth ward
comes nearest to reaching the Repub-
lican vote but docs not equal it. These
returns bear out a thought advanced by
the ISrEtIlGEScER following the Re-
publican primaries, that there is no
longer ward in the city in which the
election OF the Democratic ticket is to
be- regarded as certainty.
The situation used to be far other
wise. but the times have changed and
the situation with them. At the next
election the whole Republican city ticket
will triumph, and tho council will be
Republican by inrge majority.

The phenomenal vote at the recent
Republican primaries in this city has
made deep impression on those who
take interest In such matters. 1t has
been accepted by both sides as M aug

at the election in January. This
promise has been strengthened by the
result OF the Democrats primaries on
Saturday.

opposition in his own party. No cleo.

MAY AND DECEMBER.

A Wealthy Woman OF Seventy -0ne Welded
to n Youth Of Twenty.Ouo-Tho Mar
riage Feast.
New YoRH, Dec. 30.-The wedding OF
Mrs. Louise Caldwell aud Cornelius B.
Marco, at the Hotel Brunswick a week
ago, was remarkable in many ways.
The bride is seventy-one years old
and immensely wealthy. Young Marco
ia Just over twenty-one and lost his
money in business last summer. The
wedding collation. cost $4,000.
The brides lawyers. who were among
the guests, had will already for her to
sign that night, and it was only through
the intervention Of some friends that
her signature was not affixed.
Champagne flowed so freely that none
who attended the wedding will ever for:
get it. Mrs. Marco declared herself
supremacy happy. She was blazing
with diamonds and her trousseau ill.,
cluded Worth and Felix gowns, and
hose and lingeriett made the women
guests open their eyes in admiration.
Two months ago young Marco had
not met his bride. She is from Mon
treal. Her first husband died, and she
was married to Mr.. Tompkins. She
got a divorce from him aud resumed
tho name OF Caldwell.
THE VENTURE WAS A FAILURE.
Just one year ago she was going to
marry an Engiishman, who lived at the
Brunswick. The wedding night found
him in the Tombs. Inspector Nc
Lsughlin had arrested him for alleged
swiudling, and then it came out that
he was well known in England as Rob
ert Williams Davey, although he passed
in this city as Robert Williams. Con-
spiracy and fraud was the charge. 1t
was made by Benjamin B. Groves, OF
Kentucky. Lawyer Henry II. Finley
was also arrested.
Groves said that civilians" and Fin
lev had obtained 81 $50 from him on an
alleged Texas land deal. Williams was
in evening dress when arrested. a
blank check signed by Mrs. Caldwell,
was in his pocket. The next day she
said she had given the check to pay n
bill for her, size not knowing the pre-
else amount due.

iams," said the wealthy widow. II
should have married him il no had
asked me. lie will DO cleared Of this
charge. This whole trouble has been
brought about by the knavery OF one
OF those cunning Yankees. Thank God,
am au English woman"
Williams deposited $500 as bail with
the city chamberlain, and was released
from the Tombs. Then he disappeared.
London truth exposed him in England
aud the New York papers here. Mrs.
Caldwell went back to Montreal for a
visit and evidently forgot all about her
English adnirer.
