JUMPING OVER THE MOON.-ln pro-
posing to commit the United States to
the absurdly impossible policy of ''go-
ing it alone" in the free coinage of sill
yer, though all other nations decline
to join us. our brave bimetallic politi-

celebrated COW that jumped over the

No one, we presume, will dare ques-

ately, however for these athletic gen
tlemen the country is in no mood nor
trim to join in their fine SPORT
The country is now much in the con

terrific disorders of trade which free

sore commercial disaster, raising a

much too often been verified and it

Horrible Accident.
MRS. A. A. HESS DRAGGED TO DEATH
BYA RUNAWAY HORSE.

MRS. A. A. HESS DRAGGED TO DEATH
BY RUNAWAY HORSE.
We deeply regret that in the first
issue of the GLANCE we have to pub
lish the awful death of the wife of a
prominent and respected citizen of this
county.
The PARTICULARS are as follows: Mrs.
A. A. Hess, of near Lilly, was driving,
on Saturday at p. m, in a cart with
her youngest daughter, girl of some
II years, to the funeral of Mr.. Thacker,
at Ottobine, when piece of wire
| caught in the wheel and frightened
| the horse, which ran away throwing
the little girl out. Mrs. Hess was also
thrown out but caught in the axletree
and was dragged by the frightened
horse some half mile. Her skull was
crushed and death was almost instan.
| taneous.
1t stopped of its own accord opposite
the residence of Mr.. Newman, who ran
out; but although he was personally
acq TAINTED with Mrs. Hess he could
not recognize the corpse, so terribly
was it disfigured. He knew the horse,
however, and instantly sent the sad
news.
Inc ilIIie gin was Ouiy brulseu.
The funeral took place Sunday at
Glover Hill and was conducted by
Revs. Reed and Gruber.
Mrs Hess was the daughter of the
late Peachy Wine and sister of Mr..
Had Wine.
She leaves a husband and four
children to mourn their loss. Her age
was 4S years, 8 months and 12 days.
The deepest sympathy is felt for the
bereaved family in this terrible afflic-
tion.-HorrsSonbarg Daily Glance OF

Alderson, w. Va, June Z, 1895.
WHEREAS, One G.. w. Wesley, a
married man with wife and five chill
dren, also Baptist minister, and for
some time pastor of Baptist Churches
in West Va, was excluded from the
Blue Sulphur Baptist Church. Green

1888 upon the gravest kind of charges !;
and whereas, the same G. w. Wesley,
eloped with a young woman from the
neighborhood of Blue Sulphur Springs,
and went to parts unknown for some
time, afterwards his wife and children
returned to her relations near Hinton,
w. Va, where they remained for some
time; and
WHEREAS, All this time he has been
passing himself as a Baptist minister,
in the States of Indiana, Kentucky
land perhaps other States) deceiving
the people, and in order to do so was
passing himself under the following
names: L. G. Duffin, G.. w. Duffin, E.
l.. Clack, G. w. Rusel, and now we
understand is az Stone City. Lonna
county, KY, passing himself as the
Rev. VIM Russell; and
WHEREAS, This same g. w. Wesley,
some time ago sent for his wife and
understanding that his lawful wife
must be known as his widowed sister,
and that their children must know and
recognize ;iim as their uncle, the Rev.
VIM. Russell; and
WHEREAS, The Minister'S Institute
of the Greenbrier Baptist Association
convened with the Greenbrier Baptist
Church at Anderson, W. Va, May,
1895:
ResoIoed, That we, the ministers of
the said Association being in possess
ion of the foregoing facts, feel it our
duty to our fellow-man and the cause
of Christ to publish to the world that
the said G.. W. Wesley is a vile sinful
man. liar, child of the devil, an
enemy of all righteousness, slanderer
of the innocent, a hetrayer of innocent
girls, deceiver of the people, in fact
guilty of almost every sin known to
sinful man.
We also therefore ask that all the
religious and secular papers publish
the foregoing.

Proclamation About Cuba.

Whereas, the Island of Cuba is now
the seat of serious civil disturbances,
accompanied by armed resistance to
the authority of the established gov
eminent of Spain, a power with which
the United States are and desire to re-
main on the terms of peace and amity;
and.
Whereas, the laws of the United

to be fitted out and armed, ships OF

such service and arriving in port of
the United States, and by setting on
foot or providing or preparing the
means for military enterprises to be
carried on from the United States
| against the territory of such govern
ment.
Now, therefore, in recognition of the
laws aforesaid, and in discharge of the
obligations of the United States to-
wards a friendly power. and as meas.
ure of precaution, and to the end that

LIGHTNING FIRES A GAS WE'LL
Lightning last Friday struck and set
fire to the Big Moses gas we'll, on
Middle Island Creek, W. Va. The
we'll was the largest gas producer in
the world, and las defied all the efforts
on the part of its owners to restrain It,.
Friday night the flames were shooting
two hundred feet into the air, and the
country was light as day for miles
around. The we'll was producing about
twelve million feet of gas per day. The
roar of the flames could be heard ten
miles, and people fiocked from miles
around to see it. The Big Moses was
struck last September, and since that
time has produced gas which, could it
have been utilized, would have been
worth $2,000,000.

Lodge, Braemar, Aberdeenshire, the
Highland residence of the Duke of Fife,
son in law of the Prince of Wales, was
burned to- day. The fire broke out in
the Dukes private room. Owing to the
scarcity of water the efforts made to
extinguish the flames were unavailing
The fire spread to an adjacent wood,

spatch, was still burning. A great
number of men were cutting down trees
to prevent the fire communicating to

the vicinity
Among those who witnessed the de-
struction of the ducal residence was
Queen Victoria, who, as soon as she
heard of the fire, drove to the scene
from Balmoral.
The telling of the trees stopped the
spread of the fire. but not until all the
buildings except the tennis court and
dairy had been burned. Most of the
furniture and pictures in the lodge
were saved. The property was insured.

The Democrats Should Never Divide.

Whatever differences of opinion may
exist among the Democrats on the
question of the currency, there should
be no division in the support of the
Democratic nominee for the Presl-
dency. for the country can not be
benefited by the election of the Repub-
lican nominee. AS the Warrenton
Vrginian says, no State in the Union
has better reason for being satisfied
with the Democratic party than Vir-
ginia. The repeal of the Federal cleo
ton laws, by our party, restored to the
State the power to protect and pre-
serve her society and her civilization.
The reform of the tariff was upon lines
of policy and. principle satisfactory to
our people, and preservation of our
industries. Mr.. Cleveland has given
the South her full equality in his Ad-
ministration. The only subject of dis
quiet and dissatisfaction grows out OF
the currency question; which is mat
ter of public policy and not of political
principle.
The election of free silver advocate
to the Presidency, coupled with that
of free silver Congress, would be-
cause of very great apprehension to
the sound money men, but not neces-
sarily the source of all the evils which
underlie the currency question. Free
coinage of silver, without legal terdel
qualities, would not effect sound cur
rency. And though the Supreme Court
has ruled that greenbacks, redeemable
in gold, were constitutionally legal
tenders, it by no means follows that
the Court would hold a tifty-cent dol
lar to be legal tender for one hundred
cents of Indebtedness.
Considerations like these warn us OF
the truth of the maxim never cross
bridge until you get to it," The nomi
nation of candidate is in the distant
future, and in this country events and
possibilities take shape so suddenly
and upset SO many calculations thai
declarations of intentions and purposes
not to follow nominations are both I'm
wise and imprudent.
Let all of either division of oul
party do all in their power by discus
sion to induce harmony, and let al
avoid threats which only encourage
division.
Free silver would be an evil, in the
opinion of some, but not for one
moment to be compared with the hos1
of evils that would follow the return o.
the republican party to power. A di
vision of the democratic party, and the
nomination of two democrats would
ensure the election of d republican,
The emasculated condition of a dis
rupted and divided democracy would
invite and encourage the republican
| party to re-enact the election laws
and restore a protective tariff, an6
create those conditions which would
perpetuate that party in the admins
tration of the government, under
which the soundest currency would
not mitigate the evils which continu
ously threaten the South under repub
lican rule.
