The Gault House Saloon at Harper's
Ferry, situated within a few feet Of
the tracks on the Valley Branch Of
the B. & O.. was closed very suddenly
last Thursday evening. A mail car
was being switched, and just as it got
in front Of the Gault House it Jumped
the track and rolled over on its side,
brushing some of the paint from the
front Of the saloon and efectually
shutting of both ingress and egress by
means Of the front door. There were
three postal clerks in the car when 1t
took the tumble, but all of them got
off without injury of a serious nature.

DEATH OF WARREN FARAR.
He is Found In His Room Unconscious
and Dies Soon After.

lie Is III hOOm
and Dies Soon After.
Yesterday morning when Mr.. Warren
Farar, the well-known contractor, and
member of the firm of Farar q Glass,
doing business at u East Water street,
failed to come down to his breakfast,
some of the officers at the police station
across the street forced an entrance into
his bedroom, over the shop, and found
him unconscious and paralyzed.
Mr.. Farar fingered along until about
IL o'clock, when he died. He leaves a
boy WHO'S at Hazel Green, Wolfe county,
and daughter, Lottie, who is ut school
at White Sulphur. Both children have
been telegraphed for and are expected
here today.
Mr.. Farar's remains were removed,
after being embalmed, to the residence
of Mr.. David Worsham, on West High
street. The funeral services will take
place tomorrow afternoon.
The deceased was on the street at s
O'Clock Tuesday night, and appeared to
be in the best of health. He had slight
stroke of paralysis about two months
ago, but had overcome this attack to II
great extent.
Mr.. Farar was well.known, and his
sudden death has proven quite shock
to his many friends, all of whom knew
him to be an honorable, Woodworking
man. He was 40 years of age and had
lived in Lexington nearly all his life
Lexington Transcript, June,l4.
On last Wednesday night at ten min.
utes past 10 o'clock special messenger
reached here from Torrent with dis
patch from Lexington, summoning War
rem, the dead mans son and our appren-
tice to the funeral, but he declined to 20
for the reason that he would feel worse
to see his father corpse, after an alb.
sence of nearly two years, than to stay
here.
The deceased was our first cousin
and just two days our senior, though he
always seemed more like brother, as in
early childhood we were constant com.
panions, and we feel his loss deeply.
His death makes of Warren an orphan
indeed, as the little fellows mother died
when he was but two years of age. He
was placed with US in October, 1892, To
learn the printers trade, and ia the inte-
rim we have formed for him, and he for
US, an attachment that it would be hard
to sever, and God helping us, we will be
to him father, and trust our good wife
to give him mothers care.
