A Varied Matrimonial Experience.

Mrs. Susan D. Morgan, who lives
near Harper's Ferry, was last week
found not guilty in the United States
Court at Baltimore upon trial on an
indictment charging her with having
committed perjury in swearing she was
the widow ofLawson Morgan, soldier,
when she had never been married to
him. Mrs Morgan not only testified
on the stand that she was married to
Morgan, but produced witness to the
marriage, and the jury acquitted her.
The testimonyin the case showed that
the defendant has had an interesting
matrimonial experience. About thirty
years ago, when she was Miss Susan
Haines, she married Fred rick White,
a Union soldier. Soon after the mar
riago sho wac deserted by her husband,
who confessed to her that he had an
other wife living. Seven years later
she married Lawson Morgan, another
Union soldier, and they lived happily
together up to the time of his death
seventeen years later, She then ap-
piled for a pension, swearing that she
was Morgan's widow, which was sub
stantiated by other dispositions. For
making this oath she was arrested
about five weeks ago at her home.
While the case was pending she en-
gagged to marry another Union soldier,
John Muse, of Washington, D, c. At
his instance she recently instituted
proceedings for divorce against her
first husband in Hagerstown, on the
ground that the first marriage was a
nullity. 1t is expected that the d.
vorce will soon be granted. In answer
to Lawyer Harley squestions Mr.. Muse
said he intended to marry Mrs. Nor
gan as soon as she obtained her divorce.
Mrs. Morgan is about fifty years old.
She has never had any children,

West virginians Hurt in Collision.

A serious accident occurred on the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad at Tun-
Melton, in Preston county. this State,
on Thursday night of last week, in
which number of prominent West
Virginians were hurt in a collision be-
tween two passenger trains. Those
who were worst hurt are A. d. Garden,
of Wheeling, United States marshal /;
hands, face, neck and mouth badly
scalded, left leg scalded and bruised,
inhaled steam. William A. Ohley, of
Charleston, ex-secretary of State; face,
hands and mouth badly scalded, cut
on head, inhaled steam. Mrs. Neil j..
Fortney, of Kingwood; face, hands and
mouth badly scalded.- Miss Mary
Louise Downtain, of Charlestown; face
and hands badly scalded, left knee in
iured, inhaled steam Miss Anna L.
Taylor, of Elkins; left hand, left side,
neck and head scalded, left leg cut
A number of other persons were hurt,
but none seriously. The trains in col
lision were No. 4, east bound, and No.
|, west-bound. No. 4 had Just come
through the long tunnel, which has
but single track, and was taking a
side track when No. ! came up. The
engineer Of No. l mistook a lantern
for the white sional TO 90 ahead He
accordingly proceeded and, reaching
the point where the two tracks merge
into one, just at the east end Of the
tunnel, his engine "sidewiped' two
coaches and then hit the sleeper
"Thekla" a glancing but powerful
blow. The steamchest and other out
side appliances on the engine were
demolished, and as a result The dense
cloud of live steam poured into the
sleeper, permeating to every portion
of the car.
Most Of the passengers were in their
berths, but Messrs. Garden and Ohley,
Mrs. Fortney and Miss Downtain, who
had gotten on the train at Tunnelton,
were in the vestibule and smoking
room, not having been assigned to
berths. The shock of the collision
hurled several from their berths, and
threw Messrs. Garden and Ohley and
the two ladies to the car floor, where
they were at once enveloped in the
scalding steam. The uninjured pas
sengers and those but slightly hurt
soon made their escape from the car,
but Ohley, Garden, Miss Downtain,
Miss Taylor and Mrs. Fortney were
compelled to inhale the hot air and
steam and to lie exposed to the scald-
ing vapor for some minutes, this fact
largely accounting for the more serious
injuries they sustained.
As soon as possible the injured were
removed to nearby buildings and ply
sicians summoned. 1t was at first
feared Messrs. Ohley and Garden were
fatally injured but they are now be-
ieved to be out Of danger. They
suffered intensely.

WEST VIRGINIA ITEMS.

Davis Memorial Presbyterian Church,
at Elkins, was dedicated Sunday, Rev,
DR.. NJ. D Hoge, Of Richmond, preach
ing the dedicatory sermon.
For week or more fires have been
raging in the forests in the valleys OF
Beaver Creek, Blackwater and Tygarts
in Tucker county. Millions of feet of
hard wood has been burned. The on
ly hope for relief is rain, which has
not fallen for nearly month.
Smyrna, small town on the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad, few miles
west of Piedmont, was partly destroyed
by fire last Saturday. Scarcity of
water and wind added to the difficulty
of fighting the flames and ten build
ings were destroyed, being one-fOurth
of the entire village.
Pont Kidwell, about twenty-five
years old, was found dead near Green
spring, Saturday evening. The top Of
his head was blown off. His gun was
living across him. He was a farmers
son living at South Branch bridge and
had good home. 1t is thought his
death was accidental as no reason can
be advanced for his killing himself.
Paul Fleshler, postmaster at Elk
horn, this State, was killed last Sun
day afternoon by falling over Pinnacle
Rock, near Bramwell. He went to
view this wonderful scene with some
friends and climbed to the top of the
pinnacle. No one saw him fall, but
his friends, noticing that he had dis
appeared, began search for him, and
found his mangled remains. He fell
over a precipice l25 feet high. He
was a popular young man, of good
family.
Near Benson, in Lewis county,
party of Mormon elders, representing
the church at Salt Lake City, have
been at work PROSECUTING among the
woodmen and coal miners. There are
five of them, and they are said to have
been quite successful during the sum-
mer months in propagating their creed.
Their methods have been contrary to
the customs of the region, and in
some instances they have outraged
public decency, so the neighbors say.
On Saturday night a masked man
called at the house where they were
staying, and delivered to one of them
bunch of hickory switches, with the
information that to prevent that sort
of weapons being used it would be
well to get out of the neighborhood.
Later, half hundred shots were fired
in the house as still further warning.
Monday the evangelists packed up
and left the country.

Savage Fight With a Thief.

One night last week, between II
and clock, a burglar was discovered
ransacking a trunk in the house Of Eli
Yourtee, Brownsville, Washington
county, Nd, by Mr.. Yourtees eight
een-year-old son George. The young
man quietly left the room, descending
to the ground by the porch post, and
ran to the barn to secure a gun. Up
on his return he met the man at the
meat-house and snapped the gun twice
at him, but it refused to 80 off. The
man turned on the boy, tearing the
gun from his grasp. He then drew a
razor and, with an oath, exclaimed :
I'll fix you" Young Yourtee, who
had been sick all summer, was no
match for his burly assailant and was
slashed across the side and breast to
the ribs and across both arms. The
villain tried to get at the young man S
throat, but the victim huddled his
arms together in such manner as to
protect himself. His cries for help
caused his assailant to flee through
the cornfelds to the mountain and
brought out the members of young
Yourtee's family, who found him lying
in a pool of blood, entirely exhausted.
DR.. J. T. Yourtee was summoned and
spent the remainder of the night in
dressing the wounds, which are of a
serious character. The burglar OBJ
tanned no booty, leaving two suits Of
clothes, tied together with tar rope,
near the scene Of the assault. The
neighborhood is much excited over the
affair, and no pains will be spared to
capture the criminal.

Going into decline" How often do
we hear this expression. What does it
mean 1t means that people are losing
flesh, growing thin, wasting.
The way to correct this condition is to
improve the digestion. The condition
arises from an inability to eat and di-
gest food. In fact food does more harm
than good because it ferments and put
rifles in the stomach, developing pois-
onous substances which when absorbed
cause various disorders.
What is required is that the stomach
be made to perform its duties. The
Shaker Digestive Cordial is food al
ready digested and a digester of foods
as well. 1t will make the stomach
healthy. Get book from the druggist
and read about it.
A California chemist has robbed Cas-
tor Oil of its bad taste. Laxol is its

The Bones of the John Brown Raiders.

The Harper's Ferry Sentinel of last
week SAYS that DR.. Thomas Feather
stonbaugh, medical referee of the Pen
sion Bureau, is gathering material for
history of John Browns raid. Stuart
Taylor, jeremiah Anderson, W. H.
Lehman, 'Dolph Thompson, Wilson,
Dangerfeld Newly (colored), and
Lewis S. Leary (colored), seven of
Browns men who were killed at Har-
per's Ferry in the raid, were put into
two large dry goods boxes and carted
over the Shenandoah and buried near
the river. Mr.. James Foreman, who
assisted i'll burying these mea, still lives
on the other side of the river. Last
week DR.. Feather stonbaugh went over
and had Mr. Foreman point out the
graves of these men. The Doctor and
his assistants opened one of the graves.
An eye witness of the proceedings
says: Shovels and picks were set to
work, and with his own hands DR..
Featherstonbaugh pulled off the rotten
cover of the huge dry goods box. In
it, mingled with clay and silt which
had seeped through from the over
flowing river, were the ragged gar
ments and the skeletons of four of the
principals of the tragedy. Then the
boards were replaced and the soil was
again thrown over them. The site of
the other grave was marked by DR..
Featherstonbaugh with few lunches
of wild flowers.
1t is said that when Kate Field can
get piece of ground large enough on
which to replace the Old engine-house
these bodies will be reinterred near
the fort and monument erected above
them, bearing their names and the in
cidents of their death.
