Fatal Accident.

PARKERsBURG, June 9.-An accident
happened this morning on a farm of
Judge John J. Jackson, which lies
about FIVE miles from town on the back
Williamstown road, whereby derrick
workman was killed and two others
were injured, but not very badly. An
oil derrick was being erected and it
was partly constructed. A builder
from the neighborhood of Warrington
by the name of e. G. Cordray, was at
work in the derrick about IS feet from
the floor with Will Headley and an
other workman whose name we do not
know assisting him. There was a
cross board in the derrick on which
two of the men were standing, when
Headley walked out onto the same
board and the weight of the tree was
more than the board would sustain
and it broke, participating them all to
the ground. Cordray fell on the out
side, striking on the back of his head
and producing concussioh of the brain
causing his death in about a half hour
afterwards Headley fell on the inside
of the derrick and was hurt pretty
badly, but not seriously. The un
known party received no injuries
| worth speaking of.

such treatment. Many women lie to the

doubtedly true. They know that if they
will inevitably insist on an examination.
They do not give him all the facts in the
case, and so he works in the dark. Quite
often the doctor is too busy and too hurried
to make the necessary effort to obtain the
facts. He frequently treats symptoms for
the real cause and theTeal sickness is deeper
and more dangerous. A arrangement of
the distinctly feminine organs will derange
the whole body. The woman herself may
not know exactly what is the matter with
her, but whenever she is sick, there are two

MRS. SUTTON TO PARIS.
Her Friends Seek Her Appointment
as Lady Commissioner From
Kansas

Kansas is to have a lady commission
er to the Paris exposition in 1900. and
already one wen known society lady on
this city has been proposed for the po-
sitfon by her numerous friends. This
is Mrs. c. S. Suteton. It is understood
that the friends of Mrs. Sutton mean TO
vigorously advocate her appointment to
this position.
The position of commissioner to the
Paris exposition is one of much prorni-
nence and high honor and perhaps no
one among the ladies of this city is bet
ter fitted for the place than Mrs. Sut-
ton Mrs Sutton is popular and that
she is energetic and has the best of eX-
ecutfve ability was demonstrated by
her efforts during Topeka's Fall FesI-
val Undoubtedly Mrs Sutton would
fiji the position of commissioner to the
Paris exposition with credit to the
state, and it is quite certain that the
state of Kansas would attract as much
if not more attention than any other
state in the Union with Mrs sutton in
charge of Kansas wOmen's interests at
Paris.

LAMBORNS' BIG MORTGAGE.
Attorneys Hook and Atwood Get $66

quiet the fling of mortgage on Tues
day in favor of ". c. Hook and ]. H
Atwood, for the sum of s4.0s6, on the
property of Charles and Annie Lam
born on the farm they inherited from
their murdered father
The mortgage is given to secure. six
notes. They are all made out to w
g. Hook and ]. H Atwood and are on
the OLD Lamborn homestead of 32O
acres of land in the Kaw bottoms. The
land is reported to be worth between
SIS and $40 an acre and it would not
bring over the latter amount at
forced sale.
This is all the property these two
Lamborn children inherited from their
fathers estate The estate was divid-
ed during the fail and the deeds and
transfers were all made at that time
Why this large sum of money was
taken from these two children is hard
to discover. There was no trial of
their case and very little time was de-
voted to it. The preliminary examin7
alton of the LambOrns lasted a little
over an hour one afternoon in a jus
tice court. This was at the rate of a
little over s66 a minute
The children are not considered very
