Alexander Adams was taken 10 inc
county Jail last night on a warrant IS
sued upon a complaint sworn TO by Her-
bert Bacon, alleging an assault with
deadly weapon. Adams was arrested
by Marshal Slater and taken before JUS
tice Rossiter, who fixed bonds at $l5oO,
in default Of which Adams went over to
Jail.
Bacon is a baker by occupation and
was friend of Adams and his wire.
Some three months ago Bacon came to
room with the AdamSeS and 1t was OW-
ing to his attentions to Mrs. Adams that
the trouble arose. Adams reproached
his wife with caring too much for Ba-
con and the latter finally left the house.
Two weeks later Mrs. Adams left her
husband and took service with the fam
lily of Mr.. Acres on Illinois street. She
took with her their little 3-year-old
daughter and has since refused her hus-
band access to the little one.
Sunday night about o'clock Adams
followed Bacon, thinking the latter was
going to call on his wife and dogsed him
to the door of the Acres residence. There
he jumped on him and beat him over
the head with q broom handle, knock
ing him down and afterward kicking
him. Bacon yelled for assistance, and
after satisfying his wrath Adams left
him. Bacon was taken into the Acres
residence and has since been cared Tor
there. He swore to the complaint as
stated and Adams arrest ensued.
Adams was seen in the county jail
last night and said that the whole diff
ficulty arose over the attentions paid to
his wife by Bacon, who had been taken
into his home and had alienated his
wife's affections. Bacon is an asthmat-
ic and came here from British Columbia
for his health. Adams had repeatedly
warned him to keep away from his wife
or he would thrash him, but Bacon paid
no heed. Mr.. Acres, her employer, had
also warned Bacon to keep away. but
to no purpose. When the latter was ly-
ing on the ground he threatened to kill
Adams on sight when he was able to
get out hence the trouble between the
parties is probably not yet at an end

HUMAN REMAINS.
They Are Found Under an Old Log
House in Wayne County, West
Virginia.

HUNTINGTON, w. Va. Aug. 49,
The bones of two, and possibly three,
human skeletons were found yesterday
in Wayne county, twenty miles south
of this city, under the floor of an old
log house Part of them are supposed
to be those of Miss Bessie Clark, a
young woman who disappeared about
five years ago. Another part is thought
to be those of a peddlar, who disap-
peared in the same locality afterwards,
The house, which is now deserted,
was until recently occupied by Cove
Jordan and the girl was living in the
house when she disappeared. Jordan
now lives in Kentucky and is dying
of consumption. The bones were found
packed away in lime and charwood
about six feet beneath the surface.
Experts say that there is no doubt
that some of the bones, especially of
the skull, are those of a young woman.
