New Trial Granted the PENNSYLVANIA
Outlaws,

Bud and Bill Smithley, Hank Har-
vey and Arohy Patterson the Penn
sylvania outlaws who shot Sheriff
Shaw and were convicted at King
wood for unlawful shooting have
been granted a new trial. Their at
torney demanded a new trial on the
ground that the indictment was de-
fective, claiming that the law requir-
cd each count to specify that the of
Tense was against the peace and dig
nifty of the State, and in this case the
counts being together, only the last
one ended in that way, and as it had
been quashed, it left the other defee-
tive. After an examination of the
matter by the court, this point was
sustained and new trial granted.
But before this can be done, another
Grand Jury will have to be conven-
ed and the prisoners indicted again.
We understand that this will be
done at once, but the case will not
come up for trial again till the regu-
lar term of court in September, and
in the meantime the prisoners will
remain in sail The outlaws have
probably made mistake as they
would have gotten Off on years I'M
der the conviction of unlawful shoot
ing but if convicted of feloniously
shooting they will probably get ten
wears.

MOrgantown Licked Easily.

On Friday an alleged club of ball
players from Morgantown came over
to Masontown to wipe up the sassa-
tras soil of that section with the log
rollers and rail splitters that com
pose the club out there, according to
the Morgantown New DOMINION.
The same club had been over at the
Modern Athens short time before
and fallen an easy prey to the irwin
cibles of that place, who are sup
posed to know all about the game
and able to set a pace for the Ma
tional League, according to the es-
teemed New DOMINION. The very
Heavens wept that day over the
coming downfall The rain came
down in copious showers all day and
none expected the Morgantown dudes
to come at all, but they did, and
flushed with recent victory and
Leve Dorton's Mountain Dew" de-
manded a game. The Masontown
boys sailed in to redeem themselves
and almost shut the pride of Old
Mongerhail' out, till the last inning.
The score had run up to about 16 to
2 in favor of the "Buckwheats" and
the pets of the NEw DOMINION were
the worst licked gang that ever
broke away from mammals apron
strings. Something had to be done
or they would never dare return to
the classic shores of the Monongahe-
la, so they called time and took their
umpire out and gave him drink
and orders. After that every decis-
ion was given in their favor, and
they were allowed to run their score
up to IL before Masontown shut
them off. But 16 to IL was good
enough for Masontown, and the Wis
itors left for home with their tail
feathers in the dust and their CORY
scalps in the wigwam of the log
rollers. This makes a game apiece
for the clubs, each won on their own
grounds, and the rub game will have
to be played somewhere, to settle the
matter fairly. Will the New Do
MINIoN kindly publish this account?
-hanqacood Argus.
We are glad of the opportunity to
publish the above for the simple rea-
son that not one single player in the
alleged Morgantown club lives in
Morgantown, and further only two
of them ever pretended to play ball.
1t. was simply a crowd of boys who
live near town and went over there
with the intention of seeing the sang
diggers suck sassafras juice, but ac-
cording to the Argus the boys from
near here were flushed with "Moun-
tain Dew" and consequently could
not have seen balloon. We have
dozen clubs here that could shut
out that crowd and the crow of the
Argus is, really, real amusing.

COUNCIL MEETING.
Sundry Orders Passed at the Last Ses-
sim

At the regular meeting of Council
held Monday night the following
business was transacted.
The lot at the East end of Walnut
street formerly occupied by NJ H.
Caracas livery stable was leased to
James W. Dawson and Omer Jenk-
ms for a period of 10 years at the
annual rental of SIG. The lessees
are granted the privilege of erecting
building on the lot to be used as a
blacksmith shop
Geo. W. Robe was exonorated
from the payment of taxes for the
year 1894, he being non resident
The Street Commissioner was or
dered to grade down the sidewalk
along the old McLane property on
High street from the alley to A. w.
Lorentz's property.
A petition, signed by 300 or 400
citizens, was filed, praying council
to open the well on Walnut street
near the Odd Fellows building.
This is the old "white sulphur" well
which was filled up when the Cara
co building was torn down. The
petition was laid on the table. 1t
is a question as to whether or not
the town has right to open this
well without the consent of the Odd
Fellows upon whose property it is.
The question of putting down sew
ers on North Spruce street and up
the alley along DR.. j. NJ. Reed s
residence was discussed but no ac-
tion was taken.
The next regular meeting of conn
Gil will be held Aug. 5.

Train Robbers in Preston.

KISGwooD, July IAN attempt
was made to rob the passengers on
train No. 4, on the T., X. Il F., rail
way, this evening. When the train
left Tunnelton, at 4 o'clock, Judge j.
T. Hoke and DR.. J. II. Manown were
the only passengers in the coach.
Soon after the train left the station
two very rough looking men boarded
the train and entered the coach. The
train officials did not notice them
get on. The men approaced the two
passengers and demanded Glands
up" DR.. Manown put up his hands
promptly, but Judge Hoke declined
very forcibly and threatened to call
the trainaofficials. The would be rob
bers desisted when threatened. They
did not exhibit firearms but seemed
to be prepared and held their hands
on their hip pockets. The robbers
Immediately left the coach but rode
on to Kingwood and escaped among
the crowd before officers could be
summoned The sheriff is looking
for the men to night.

Wool.

Every day something new comes
to light that puts the calamity howl
ers deeper in their hiding places.
Wool buyers started out the first OF
the year by telling the farmers and
wool raisers that they would get
but IL cents for their wool and some
farmers sold ont at those figures, bat
It soon neeame apparent to wool deal
ers that they could not keep wool
down TO those figures, so they began
to advance a little but did not keep
pace with the city market advances.
Row those farmers who have not sold
9heir wool, and those who were so
unlueky as to have sold it early in
the spring, should know that last
Yeek wool jumped from Is cents to
19 and % cents.
The Philadelphia market for July
9th, 1875, was as follows: Wool,
strong and higher. Chic,
Pennsylvania and West Virginia
Ky and above, II (a) Ice; medium,
2O( agile; quarter blood, 2t(al23c /;
comtqon, 49, )2Oc.
The Boston market of same date
says t4at dealers are expecting an
other advance of Ic this week.
This must be hard medicine for
the calamity bowlers to swallow, but
they have it to swallow.

MOnOngaIia County,

The last issue of the B. d O. Field
has this to say about our county:
The surface is rolling and billy
without being abrupt, for the most
part and is mountainous only in the
extreme eastern border.
The soil is mainly rich alluvial
in the valleys and bottoms, and com
posed OF limestone, and loan with a
sub stratum of clay, on the higher
ground. Much of the most produe-
tive and best grazing lands are found
on the hills. Blue grass is indigo
nous to the greater part Of the coun.
ty.
Natural gas has been found in
abundance at number of points in
this coal field. Oil is now being pro
duced in paying quantities.
The iron ores of this county have
been successfully used in the blast
furnaces operated here many years
ago.
Transportation is furnished by
the Monongahela river, which is
made navigable by locks and dams
from Pittsburg to Morgantown, and
by the Baltimore q Ohio r. r.
Over one hundred primary schools
exist in the rural parts of the coun.
ty, with a graded school at Morgan
town, and the State University offers
opportunities of the most advanced
character.
Cheap fuel focal, coke and gas),
pure water in abundance, healthy
climate, river and rail transporta
ton in competition, low prices for
lands and light taxes, with cheap
raw material (such as wool, timber
ore, fire clay, glass sand and tan
bark at hand, and with a good ag-
ricultural community TO draw upon
for food supplies, mark this county
as one Of the very best in the Union
for manufacturing enterprises.

Was There a Vacancy?

ARNETTsvHLE, July 16.-There seems
to be quite diversity of opinion, as tc
whether there was vacancy in the
Board of Education of Grant district. &.
At the November election Levi Youst
and A. }. Arnett were the candidates
voted for by the two parties as commits.
sioners. By returns of the election as
printed by the Morgantown Post it seem
ed Youst was elected by nearly 100 ma.
jority.
For reasons best known to himself
Youst did not qualify. Would this ere.
ate vacancy?
We contend not, as the school law
says there can be no vacancy only by
removal, resignation or death, and there
has been none of these. And further
the school law of West Virginia, section
I'd, as amended by chapter 26, passed
Feb. "a, 1898, says:
"There shall be elected in each dis
trict in the county one commissioner, al
the general election held on Tuesday af-
ter the first Monday in November, 1894
a successor to the commissioner elected
in May, 1891 land every two years there
after, one commissioner, whose term Of
office shall commence on the first day
of July, next, aftea election and contin-
ne for four years, and until his successor
is elected and qualified according to
law"
Also the decisions of the Attorney
General and that of the Supreme Court
are that the commissioners hold over
until their successors are elected and
qualified, however long period that
may be.
Now, sir, without any regard to the
law, our county superintendent has de.
clared vacancy, and prior to July LIST
1895, appointed man to fill said vacan
cy. / ask is it legal?
1t is rumored that the republican tick
cts had printed on them Levi Youst and
Levi NJ. Youst and that when the votes
that were cast for Levi M. Youst are
stricken off it leaves a majority for the
other man. Is there any truth in this
