SKULL CRUSHED.

Jas. Gibson Probably Fatally Injured.
Parrish Adkins and Jas. Gibson
are two farmers who liveanear
neighbors on Madison creek, in the
Southern part of the county. They
have not been on the best of terms
for some time, and late Saturday
evening the two men met just across
the line in Lincoln county. a
quarrel was the result, and after a
few words Adkins picked up a
boulder and hurled it at Gibson
with much force. The rock struck
Gibson on the side of the head
crushing the skull. Adkins then
attempted to make his escape but
was overtaken, and is having his
preliminary hearing this afternoon.
Gibson was still alive late yester.
day evening, but there are no hopes
Of his recovery. Both parties were
men of families and were favorblv
known throughout the county,

The cut worms have ceased their
depredations, and left a great many
farmers behind with their work.
Harvest will soon be here, with
but scant J crop. There will be
very little grass worth cutting, and
to sum up the profits for farmers,
there is none; in fact, they will
have to economic to meet current
expenses, and live. Oh, God! is
there no relief? 1t seems that the
chain of bondage is getting tighter
and tighter, with nothing in the
dim distance 10 hope for. a great

There ought to be an ordinance
passed prohibiting persons from
dumping all the rubbish off their
premises along the river front over
the bank. 1t collects along the
river shore and is constantly filing
up along by and below the wharf
boat, and is filling in SO greatly that
in few years it will destroy the
usefulness of the present ferry land
ing on the Ohio. There is all sorts
of rubbish thrown over the bank
that could as well be burned. The
boys complain after going in swim
ming, too, that the river bottom is
covered with broken glass, SO that
it is even dangerous for them to go
in bathing anywhere along the river
front. From a business standpoint,
however, it is worth looking iuto so
that the usefulness OF our river
landing be not in any way impaired.
1t presents very bad appearance
also to visitors coming into our city.
Let it be looked to that our river
front is cleaned up of all rubbish,
etc and beautified.

THE EXTENSION.
The Paridise of the Town.

Have you been up in the Exten
sion lately? Well, if not take walk
or drive up that way it will do you
good. What but a few years ago
constituted nothing moro or less
than a COW pasture is now entirely
built up with handsome residences
built of modern style, making beau
tiful homes, surrounded by wide
spread lawns, dotted with numer
Gus flower beds and shade trees
Our city is assuming large and
splendid proportions, and the Ex-
tension is one of the most interest
ing and picturesque parts of the
town. Living up there is like liv-
ing by the sea shore, where you get
nice breeze of pure air all the
time even under the hottest ofnoon
day suns. You have from there q
clear view of the great Ohio for
miles up and down the river, which
from there presents tie view of a
beautiful inland lake, spanned by
one of the largest and most nagnifi
cent bridges in the worId-the X
& NJ. Facing the river you are
looking into the great State of Ohio
whose hills at this point are cover
cd with forest trees and whose fer
tile valleys make the best of farms
The people in the Extension are all
good citizens, frugal and industri
GUS and happy. Nearly every one
has garden which refreshed by the
recent rains promise a bountiful
yield. We drove through there yes
terday evening and we found the
house wives busy with household
duties, men all engaged in some EN-
ployment, and at many homes
children all hearty and healthy, hap
py and playing with toys upon the
lawns. It's good place to live up
there in the Extension. There are
many beautiful sites for residences
there yet, all the way from the o.
r. R. r. depot up. Much of the
ground is naturally terraced, adding
beauty to the location. Nature has
placed an amphitheater about the
base ball park and provided splen
did drainage for the entire eommu
nifty. They have up there a flour
ing mill, with a capacity of one
hundred barrels per day, a post
Office, dry goods and grocery stores,
and now also street railway in
view. You can go thousand miles
and not find better and happier
people than in the Extension.
The Daily will publish all the
news and happenings up there in
its every day issue, aud deliver the
paper to every door for % cents per
month.

Good judges say that frat class

The demand for bicycles is far

Orders for wheels for Point Pleasant
parties have been standing for

George Bidwell. the manufacturer,
thinks that, at the present rate OF
progress in electricity and bicycles,
the next fifty years will witness the
disappearance of the horse, except
stuffed ones in museums.
The American Cyclist advises
"standing in the stirrups' largely in
going over rough place, thus dis
tributing the weight on both wheels,
instead of sitting solidIy in the sad
die, shortening the life of the tire OF
the "wheel horse"
"a bicycle is better than a horse

HORSE SHOERS.

You can get anything from the slowest
draft horse to the fastest cracker-jack
that flies the turf shod at our shop. We
always shoe in accordance with the wish
Of the man who holds the ribbons, as he
is supposed to know what he wants.
Thanking the public in general for their
patronage we hope to merit a Just and
fair share of it in the future as in the
past. Also in connection with the
above is J. w. Wilkinson. a practical
wagon maker, who can be found always
ready to accommodate the public.

1t is something to the credit of the
above that every horse shod by them
last season was a winner.
