Death Of Mrs. A. p. wozencraft.

The following from the Dallas,
Texas, Star tells of the death Of the
wife of A. P. Wozencraft, who was
formerly Miss Virginia Wilson, and
who had many friends in Morgan
town:
THAT the grim reaper loves a shin
ing mark never appeared more forci-
bly, than it did this morning to the
sorrowing friends about the bedside
of Mrs. A. p. Wozencraft, who
breatned her last at 10 o'clock, after
an illnhss of only few short months
just two years ago she came TO Dallas
from her girlhood home In West Vir-
ginia, happy bride, the very picture
of health and perfectly blooming
womanhood. Richly endowed with
those graces of mind and character
that nature so rarely combines and
being highly cultivated she was an
ideal woman TO her host of friends and
an ornament rare to both home and
society. She was the daughter OF
Ex-Congressman Ben Wilson of West
Virginia and was educated in Europe
and lived for several seasons in the
nations capital which ably fitted her
for the position which she so grace
fully filed since her residence in Dali
fas as the beloved wife of Capt. A. p.
Wozencraft. After the birth of
handsome little son, her health failed.
A change in the climate and all that
medical science could offer did not
stay the dread destroyer and few
weeks ago she returned from Colorado
to die. The Star extends its condo
lence TO her father, husband and 9th
er relatives.
"Mrs. Wozencraft was deyout
Catholic, and the funeral will take
place from St. Patrick's church at II
O'Clock tomorrow. Interment will
take place in Trinity cemetery"

If society has a fondness for sur
prises the circle here experienced a
fullness of delight Christmas morning
aside from the usual Yuletide pleasure,
for it was without the event being
very generally known even among
their intimates that Prof. Henry B.
Davenport and Miss Emma White
were married at s O'Clock in the morn
ing of the gladstone Natalitial day
The wedding occurred at the beautiful
home of the brides father, Dr. |. c.
White. The ritualistic service was
conducted by Rev. Pierson, rector of
Trinity church, and the ceremony was
witnessed by but the members of the
immediate family of the bride and
Miss Bessie Finney, who is the guest
Of Mrs. White. After the ceremony
wedding breakfast was served and
the newly married left by train at 9:35
for Wheeling, extending their trip to
Pittsburg, and returning here Monday.
They are now at home at the Wallace
House, where they will remain until
the end Of the school year, Prof. Da-
yenport wishing to complete the law
course he is now taking at the Univer-
sity. His first connection with that
institution was as occupying the chair

with but one instructor. Prof. Daven-
port is Jefferson county man who
has proved his great worth and won
the respect of all during his residence
here, and is now to be congratulated
upon the crowning act of his career in
winning a bride SO fair. Mrs. Daven-
port is native Of this place and for
some years has been one of Morgan
towns most popular girls.

Married Last Summer.

1t has just become known among
persons not intimately acquainted with
the parties concerned that Miss Lily
Raymond, youngest daughter of the
late Judge Raymond, a well and favor
ably known young lady of Fairmont,
who on frequent visits had become
quite popular in society circles here,
was married as long ago as last July
to Charles Chenoweth, a son of Rev.
j. f. Chenoweth, who formerly lived
at Fairmont but is now in business at
Rowlesburg. The ceremony took place
at Oakland, Nd, the bride at that
time being a visitor with her parents
at Mountain Lake Park. The knowl-
edge of the wedding was kept secret
until quite recently. An account of
it has never, previous to this, been
published. Last week Mrs. Chenoweth
was the guest of her sister, Mrs. II. S.
Dering, in this place, and at that time
the above facts were ascertained.

Miss Gypsy Fleming to be Married.

A marriage which, on account of
the prominence of the parties concern
ed, will attract considerable attention
throughout the State, will occur at
Fairmont on the eighteenth of this
month, when Miss Gypsy, oldest
daughter of Ex-Governor and Mrs. A..
B. Fleming, will be married to Mr..
Charles Edwin Ward, of Charleston.
The wedding will be rather quiet
one, with little ostentation and but
few attendants, though numerous
friends from distance will be present
to witness the ceremony, including
quite party from Charleston. Miss
Fleming, who so ably assisted her
mother as mistress Of the Executive
Mansion during the administration of
Governor Fleming, won quite repu-
tation as charming hostess and
formed wide acquaintance among
the prominent people of the state, to
whom the hospitality Of the Governors
home was frequently extended. Mr..
Ward is one of the most successful and
popular young men of Charleston. He
is associated in business with his faith
er, Mr.. Charles Ward, the inventor
and manufacturer of the Ward coil
steam generators, now being used by
the United States Government on all
its new ocean vessels, and is a promi-
nent member of Charleston society. A
new home has already been prepared
by Mr.. Ward in Charleston, in which
he and his bride expect to make their
home for the future. Invitations for
the marriage will be issued in a few
DAYS.

Lewis Again Oh the "Retired List. y

Lewis Stoneking has had much
trouble and many wives. He is again
on the matrimonial retired list. His
last and most youthful "life partner
has thrown up the contract. She has
left his bed and board, but deponent
saith not whether it was or wasn't
with 'sjust cause and provocation."
Friday 1T was rumored that the
bride who was but recently taken to
the West run home had left it and
gone far, far away. The bridegroom
was in town Saturday. The New
DOMINION talked to him. There was
a forced and bitter smile accompany
ing the following remarks which the
veteran (of both military and matri-
monial ventures) uttered.
"I've been fooled again. Yes, she's
gone, and I'm going to fix it so she
can't get anything out of me. She
has got her last dollar from Lewis.
l don't know where she has gone
all | want her to do is too keep away
from me, now that she has gone.
My friends ought to have told me
what kind of woman she was. No
one warned me, and still they say
this is a Christian country. All I've
got to say now is that / never be fooled
again. l don't want any divorce
wouldn't give ten cents for one.
don't want to marry again."
And Lewis left for his home. He
is not happy, but he does not mourn
for the loss OF the woman so much as
for many articles of apparel she took
away which he had bought for her
during the honeymoon. But Lewis
may be relied upon to get in marry
ing mood again. Experience is a
dear school, but Lewis has evidently
failed to learn in 1t.

A Pleasant Social Function.

On Tuesday December 26, 1893, Mr..
and Mrs. A. N. Michael, of Stewards
Run, Grant district, celebrated the
26th anniversary oftheir marriage by a
dinner and reception of their friends.
There were present their daughter
Ella and her husband Jarrett A..
Lynch, Mrs Elizabeth Snider, Mr.. and
Mrs. +. M. Michael, Mr.. and Mrs. G..
j. Michael, Mr.. and Mrs. w. e. Lynch,
Mr.. and Mrs. j. ID. Michael, Mr.. and
Mrs. S. G. Stewart, Mr.. and Mrs. L.
d. Michael, and Mr.. f. w. Taylor.
There was no sign of hard times in
the dinner served, and the guests went
away wishing the good couple many
more returns of such anniversary.
Such gatherings are most commend
able. They cultivate friendship and
good feeling. They cheer the weary,
and divert the minds of the sorrowing
from their troubles-and prolong life
geDerally--and all who contribute to
such good results should be encouraged.

A BAR ROOM
Made Of the County Jail-Tuning Said
to Sell Liquor While Prisoner.

If all they say about William Tun-
ing be true he is, in that topical
phrase which expresses so much, a
plum lulu. Whether it is true what
is said OF him will take courts to de-
eide, and this paper does not pretend
to say it is so, but what they do say
is this: Tuning has been selling IL
quor through the bars OF the county
jail, And there is some color lent
the report from the fact that the
man does not now have the liberty OF
the Railways but has been put in one
of the cages.
Tuning is the man who sold liquor
on the peddling plan. Prosecuting
Attorney Baker prosecuted an exam
nation on this charge and as a result
Tuning is in jail TO await the action Of
the grand jury. He was put on the
lower floor and was not put in a cage,
but allowed to walk around the yesti-
bule surrounding the cages, where he
could talk through the windows to
anyone who wished TO lessen the
gloom of the solitary continent Of
the prisoner 1t is the report that
callers on Tuning became very numer-
GUS and frequent. He sprang into
great popularity with sudden bound.
And he turned no man away with
wrath or unwelcome reception--if he
had the price. The matter was looked
into and as result of the inyestiga-
ton they claim that the illicit liquor
traffic was conducted literally in the
shadow of the court house and in an
other institution made and provided
by the county.
1t being fairly we'll settled that
Tuning was selling liquor, that is
settled in the minds of the official
gentlemen who observed affairs while
waiting, the next thing to find out
was, where did he get his whisky?
He certainly couldn't manufacture 1t
in Jail, If he could sell it while there;
SO it was found that packages OF Ii
quor were brought TO him from his
home, while he did the rest. They
claim they have also found this out.
They surely wouldn't say so unless
they had And so there 1t is and
what is TO be done about it? For
selling liquor Illegally there is pen
atty, but the law makers failed to
provide an additional punishment for
a man who would use the county Jail
as his bar room. Tuning is evidently
q slick citizen.

Quite a Clever HsPuf.r

The Pittsburg Post figures it in this
pleasing way:
The early completion Of the Balti-
more & Ohio road from Uniontown to
Morgantown will bring one of the
most charming parts Of West Virgin
ia into direct rail communication with
Pittsburg. AS Morgantown is con-
nected by rail with Fairmont on the
main line, there should be a large in
crease of the trade of the city by this
opening. Morgantown is an ideal
country town; its population is cul-
tured and hospitable; situated on the
Monongahela on the foot hills OF the
Allegheny mountains, near the first
range, there is the most charming
scenery about it. 1t will become with
the railroad connection, great re-
sort for Pittsburgers in simmer time,
being accessible both by rail and riv-
err"

They Said he Sold Lianor,

Andy Frost was arrested Saturday,
on a warrant issued by Squire Hayes,
on a charge of having sold liquor to
various people in Morgantown within
the past few days. The hearing was
set to take place at O'Clock the same
afternoon. Prosecuting Attorney Ba-
ker represented the state and Attor-
ney l.. V. Keck appeared for Frost.
The proceedings opened by the defend
ants counsel moving to waive exam
ination. This was granted by the
court, and then the prosecutor stated
that he wished to have the defendant
placed under bond to not sell any
more till circuit court, when the trial
of the case is to occur. The court did
not require this, however, but secured
a promise from Frost that he would
not sell. Mr.. Keck become Frost's
surety in the penalty Of 800 for his
at court. Abe Costen and
Barney Watts or John Webley or what
ever his name is, who were summoned
as witnesses, were also recognized to
appear at court. And Andy went on
his way

Tough Brothprs.

Messrs. Tough Bros. the only carriage
manufacturers in this vicinity have
for some time been building fine
line of work to be ready for the spring
trade, and will continue during the
winter. These enterprising gentle
men were the first to locate ON Beech
hurst Avenue and are rapidly gaining
the confidence Of the public and build
ing up fine trade. They supply Gus
toners with vehicles of any class,
style or price. Their own work is
guaranteed and will outwear any of
the cheaper imported goods usually
sold. In buying from them you deal
with the manufacturer face to face
and he can't afford to misrepresent and
wont do so. Besides the bargains
they give customers, to buy
from them keeps large part of the
money in our own county and that
is matter that should be considered
by every citizen. Customers will find
Tough Bros. very affable, clever and
accommodating business men.

GEORGETOWN AND ARNETTsvILLE
Notes Of Interest from the Metropolis
Of Grant.

ARNErrsyIILR, Dec. 30.-We propose
now to square up for 1898. Among the
festivities and other events which closed
the year, which is gone to return no
more, we note the marriage at Oak Grove
on Thursday, Dec. 20, Of Mr. Lang and
a Miss McElroy.
On Sunday, Dec.24, on the" Avenue"
near Fairmont, Mr.. Benjamin F. Simp-
son and Miss Jane Kennedy. Simpson
is OF Shuman Heights, and Miss Ken
nedy, late clerk for Samuel Phillips Of
Arnettsville. Sallie McElroy now fills
her place in the store and post
office.
We would like to give fair and inn
partial account Of all proceedings, but
we cannot.
There was fox hunt-all had the
best dog, but the others knocked him off
the track, ETC., ETC., and the fox was not
caught.
One thing we do know, there is no use
of any one dying at disadvantage now,
for insurance agents are plenty and it
costs littles to leave your family we'll
healed. Next TO the fruit tree man the
insurance agent has the cheek. but so
long as they make the people happy we
shall not object.
Among the visitors we note--parties
from Clinton with H,N.M.Chipps, +. J.
Stewart and wife, OF Avon, Doddridge
county, with III. L. Youst; Buckner F.
Grimes; with uncle George Pratt, Cur
rell, John and Alvin Cowell OF Greene
county. Pa, with relatives and friends
here. And many others we do not think
of now.
The entertainments were at many and
various places.
A party at G. w. Robey's on Stew
arts run; oysters at Arnettsville, fes-
tivities at George Pratt's Of GEORGETOWN,
also d. I Miller's and many moro too
tedious to mention.
In the business world there is little to
note. Lindsey McElroy has sold frac-
ton Of land to b. T. Smith. The team
sters are hauling casing to the oil field,
and making our roads very bad. But
still our people viii try to live on.

The Reason for II.

Christmas entertainments at the
churches have been discussed. it
seems, long ago, and the fact of the
New DOMINION not being published
last week is the abecause" of full, de
tailed accounts of each one not APP
pearing, but each and every one was
equal to the anticipations INDUCED
for it, not a church in town falling to
make some nature of observance of
the occasion and to speak of them
generally it can with truth be stated
they were successful in the grand
mission of filling the hearts of chill
dren and parents with gladness.
The omission of publishing last
week would make extended note at
this time of many other happenings of
that time stale news indeed. 1t does
seem by this time that Christmas was
long time ago, so our readers may
understand that in making the pres
ent impression of chronicle of events
it is begun when the time of a paper,
had there been one, of last week is
left off.
