The Gate City Railroad,

The rounder saw Superintendent
Ben Collins, Of the above road this
morning, and in conversation with
him, learned that the rails would
be laid and the road finished tc
"Doddridge,' the name given the
station situated half way between
Bright Star and Spring Bank Mr.,
Collins said, eve will rest from
building, after we reach the above
place, for the summer, unless we
change our mind, which at this
time, is not probable" The Gate
City road in it's new town Of Dod-
bridge, will no doubt, build up a
nice village and 1t will be another
diadem Of setting in the galaxy OF
towns Of Miller county, which will
add to the prosperity of the county,
and to the trade Of our city.

LETTER FROM FIT. LYNN.

At 1890 o'clock today, while Capt
Henderson and crew were ashore
taking dinner, some one at the mil
discovered fire on the upper deck OF
the Steamer Henderson, and blew
a fire alarm whistle, upon hear
ing which everybody started at a
pretty lively gait to investigate,
Engineer Joe Smith and First Mate
Ada, by doing some "240" sprint
ing, arrived at the scene of the fire
in time to extinguish it before it
had done more damage than to
burn a large hole through the deck,
1t is supposed the fire originated
from sparks from the smoke stack
falling on the deck.
Through the efforts Of Mesdames
f. L. Tupper and I. B. Henderson,
our good people met last Sunday at
3 p. m,, in Hotel Henderson parlors,
and organized the Lynn Union Sun
day School, with twenty two mem
bers, mostly adults. Officers were
chosen as follows G, 7, Mcclure,
superintendent; r. M, Yarbrough,
secretary and treasurer; W. e.
Yarbrough, Bible class teacher f.
L, Tupper, intermediate, and VIM.
Owens, primary class. The school
was a much needed organization
here, and ! was pleased to note the
interest manifested by all present,
Mr. and Mrs, Henderson kindly ten
dered the use of a room and an or
gan to the school, to whom special
thanks are due The good people
from the adjacent country are cor
daily invited to attend and take
part with US If we could have
preaching occasionally ne would APP
rreciate and enjoy the service, If

tion, so long as he is working for

convenient to come to us occasion.

RELIEF WORK,

Yesterday evening the roundel
saw Mrs, ii. r. Webster drive ~
to the curb in front Of Mayor Ed
wards place of business, and know
ing her to be at the head of thl
charities in this city, he made bolc
to ask her something about thu
work. He learned from her thai
she was now looking after three
widows with orphans, and one old
lady, without children, She was
then looking for Mayor Edwards
to consult about sending an Ole
woman to Hot Springs, who is here
on the charity of the town, bur
who claims she is known in Hot
Springs, and that if she can reach
the Springs she will be taken care
of by friends,
The rounder suggested that city
attorney John Cook had small
amount of money in his hands for
charity, taken in by the Knights
of Pythias at the concert of the
Divide Musin Company, and for her
to see Mr.. Cook, which she said she
would do.
When asked about the doctors
wife, the lady they had on their
hand during the opening of the
winter, and whom they housed on
Maple street, she said ooh, we
sent her to Paris some time ago.
At this point white woman passed
on the sidewalk dressed thinly, with
an eight year old girl at her heels
the girl having several loaves Of
bakers bread in her arms, There
goes a woman now in a wretched
condition, she said; that woman
called on me for help, but have nc
money on hand for this work, and
when case presents itself that
needs immediate relief get in the
buggy and start out, just like you
see me now, raising a few dollars to
relieve their present wants, and to
get them started towards then
people and friends, if they have
any,
Mrs. Webster is doing a noble
work in behalf Of her unfortunate
sister womanhood, and if her crown
in the world to come is set with one
star for each good deed or word OF
cheer given to to the un(ortunates
it will be only fitting tribute to
the deeds Of a noble, kind hearted
soul, who has tended the Master's
handiwork, and kept it from with
ering and perishlng for want OF
care, Mrs. Webster is not alone IN
this work, for there are dozens Of
ladies in our city who act with her
and open their pocket books to help
her in her relief work, We hope by
next winter the ladies may have
more money in their treasury to
work in the field Of charity,

WILL PASS THE HOUSE.
MI Manning Says the Commission
Bill Will go Through.

1t is expected that the Manning
Railroad Commission bill will come
up in the House today. In conver-
sation with a Gazette reporter last
night Mr.. Manning stated that he
had been assured that many of
those who voted against the Robin
son bill would support the new bill
and sufficient number had promis-
ed their support, whether with the
majority or minority committee
amendments, to assure the passage
of the bill through the house.
Little Rock Gazette.
We have not this bill before us
and know nothing of its aims, but
we do know that the railroads
should be brought under state con
troll to the extent of keeping them
from making eXtortionate tariff
rates, The House will redeem it's
lost prestige by passing railroad
commission bill of some kind.

COURT
PROCEEDINGS.
CONTINUED FROM LAST WEEK.


In the estate of w. ]. Allen decd
a rule was granted to show cause why
the former order of court allowing the
widow $Ioo per year should not be
revoked.
The Register presented the &C
counts and widows appraisments for
confirmation nisi. If no exceptions
are filed within FIVE days they will be
confirmed absolute.
Paul A. Wildemuth Esq, Attorney
at.Law from Oklahoma was admitted
to the bar.
Report of viewers vacating a road
in Miff1in Township confirmed nisi.
In the estate of VIM. N. Brown
return was made that the land had
not been sold.
In the estate of John D. Hummer
return of writ Of partition confirmed
nisi.
The first case which occupied the
attention of the Court was that of the
Court VS.. Norman Young. Charge
was surety of the peace. The parties
reside in Jackson Township and al
though they have been married only
one short year their honeymoon has
waned and been eclipsed, as the evil
dence showed that this was n OF the
first time he had been charged with a
similar offense. The evidence in this
case was like that usually produced In
cases of a like nature. Each en-
deavoring to place the blame on the
other. The prosecutrix, his wife, al
leges that about the 9Th OF June last
he came to his fathers house where
they were living and insisted that She
should 60 with him to festival, and
upon her refusal to do so he became
angry and threatened to kill the baby
and shoot the dog (the latter OF
which he did do) He also used
threatening language to her, and She
was obliged to go to her sisters about
a mile away at II o'clock at night
She also stated that she had never
lived with him since they were mar
ried as he had no place to which te
take her. They had talked about go
ing to housekeeping but that was az
far as it went. She also stated tina
when he came home upon this occas
ion he was under the influence o
liquor.
Upon cross examination it came
out that there was bad blood betweer
the parents of these parties, and be
tween her father and the defendant
David Young, the father of the de
fendant attempted to show the othe
side of the case. He testified tina
the whole trouble arose because th'
prosecutrx was determined to go t(
one Daniel Stevens. Just who 'ht
was, or what relation they sustained
to each other did not appear. Tha
when she said she was going to Ste
vens, then the defendant told her t'
go, take The baby and stay. That HI
used no threatening language and dix
not attempt to harm the baby IL
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1895-10-04

regard to the shooting of the dog, he
did do that, and done it because he
had told him to do it because he had
too many. 1t appears from Mr..
Young's testimony that she had known
Stevens prior 10 her marriage to the
defendant.
He also contradicted her statement
that the defendant was intoxicated on
that occasion, saying that he might
have been little cidered. The Court
listened patiently to all the evidence
Notwithstanding the fact that the ther-
mometer was way up in the nineties.
The Grand Jury made the following
return:
Commonwealth VS.. James Hile.
Wantonly destroying fence. A true
bill.
Same VS.. Henry Umbewurst. AS.
sault and Battery. A true bill.
Same VS.. James Mcclure. Fornica'
ton & Bastardy. A true bill.
TUESDAY MORNING.
In the estate of Samuel Shive, decd.
report of sale confirmed nisi., and
October 2, 1895 fixed as the time for
the reading of the return.
Lewis Lee was excused from serving
as Juror.
Sale of the real estate of Harriet
Morris, decd ordered for the payment
of debts.
The general list of jurors was called
and something unusual was found to
exist and that was, that all upon whom
service had been made were present.
The Auditor in the estate of David
Yost, decd. was given until Monday
Sept. 80 to file his report.
In the case of the Commonwealth
VS.. Norman Young the court in pro-
nouncing sentence said "that the
marriage was originally unfortunate,
and from the evidence as we'll as from
the demeanor of the parties it was
evident that it was impossible fol-
them to live in harmony. That the
wife preferred to live apart from hel
husband and that he was willing she
should do so. That the child had died
since the proceedings had been com
menced and hence there was no danger
to it, and there would be none to the
prosecutrix if she remained away
The sentence of the court was tina
the defendant pay the costs ofprosecu
ton or give bail for the payment O
the same within ten days.
Commonwealth VS.. James Mcclure
Fornication and Bastardy. The de
fendant being arraigned plead guilt,
and the Court sentenced the defend
ant to pay fine of $25, $50 lying ex
penses, ST. for maintenance OF tn,
child to this time, and SI.oo per weel
payable quarterly until the child shal
arrive at the age of seven years.
