Subscriptions Must Come in at Once.

New Haven, Feb 2S, 1897. To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 Sir-We are all concerned with the fate of the Gounod society. Much is being said in the newspapers about it, and one hears on every hand deep re- grets expressed that its affairs should be in so critical condition. But what is needed now-this week-are deeds, not regrets!
 Nobody disputes-at least I have nev CT heard a dissentient opinion--the very great stimulus this musical society has been to us It's artistic value and dig nifty are indisputabIe, and it's honorable and brilliant record is household word far beyond our borders. It will indeed be sad and incredible if the people of our cultivated city do not prove their loyalty and gratitude at this juncture The times are hard, it is true, and everything musical so far this season has been financial failure, and many of the choral societies of other cities also are in trouble. Nevertheless we ought to sustain the Gounod society, even at the cost of some personal self sacrifice The consequences of it's dis solution would be far-reaching, and many years must elapse before another chorus could be developed here. As Professor Parker truly remarks, there is no local artistic organization which New Haven cannot better afford to spare"
 Subscriptions for tickets to guarantee the forthcoming concert are called for To be available, we are told, they must be made this week. Subscription pa- pers may be found at all the music stores and at Judas. Let no one miss this opportunity to save our oldest and most distinguished musical society.

In the Little Buffalo Oil Fields, Wet

known Oil Driller Shot Dead.

SIsTERsVILLE, w. Va, Nov. "A
very sensational murder occurred on
Little Buffalo creek, North of Elk
Fork, in Wetzel county, last even
ing.
From the report received here it
seems that number of drillers in
the oil field in that section went out
to have a time, and in their rounds
ofpleasure stopped at a certain house
While there quarrel arose, and the
landlady being in bad humor, inn
mediately started trouble by getting
a revolver and commencing TO shoot.
She fred two shots, the first one
taking effect in the wall and the sec
ond hitting Louis Jones, well
known OIL driller, in the mouth, and
almost blowing his head off.
There is great excitement at the
scene of the murder, and if the
woman who committed it is found by
the frenzied mob of the oil people,
who are looking for her, she will be
lynched.
The sheriff Of Wetzel county is on
the scene and is making every effort
to keep the peace. The woman took
to the woods after she had fred the
shots.

West alright, But he is Coming Back
Home

The Hon. w. G. Brown, OF King
wood, late Democratic candidate for
Congress in the second district, is now
in the West and writes glowing
praise from Whatcomb, Washington,
Of that country:
OF all countries | have ever seen,
this truly Is a land of milk and honey.
The soil is fertile and the fields are
covered with blue grass, with clover,
(Which they tell me continues to grow
all winter) which must be true, as
they cut no hay and make no prepa-
rations for providing wintering for
them. Apples, pears and peaches
grow in profusion and can be had for
the asking. Everybody here, how
ever is running wild after gold now,
and the ordinary methods Of making
money are too slow for them Hun
dreds have gone to Klondike and
more are getting ready to Cd in the
spring. The recently discovered gold
fields Of this country may deter some
OF them. This find is unquestionably
rich, but to what extent has not been
ascertained. Groups of prospectors
are coming and going daily and they
all tell encouraging tales.
Mr.. Brown will be home in few
days.

The associated press has sent out

ball player and had been masquerade
ing under the name of Ross Fitcus,
of Greensburg well known in this
section
Few people recognized the fact
but Stevenson was formerly stu
dent here and was a member of the
foot ball team in "a. He was not
considered very good player being
merely sub and not playing regu-
larry on the team. He quit before
the season was out.
As stndent he was not much
better but no one thought that there
was anything vicious about him.
From here he went first to Wheeling
and then to Lebanon, Ohio, where
he praeticed law for while. His
success at this was not a particular
ly bright one and he drifted West
and secured an engagement to coach
a fo9t ball team at Kansas City as

left Lebanon the forgery was com
mitted.
When arrested Stevenson showed

Murderer Captured Red. handed.

Non hilied D. a Farm nanu-Ihe
Murderer Captured Red handed
PARKERsBURe, w. Va, Nov. s.
A report reached this place late to-
night that the entire population of
Jackson county were aroused and in a
high pitch of excitement over triple
murder occurring there last night, but
which was not known until this
morning. The details are given as
follows:
An aged widow, named Green, who
lived on farm on an isolated place
on Glass Lick, eight miles from Rip
ley, with two married daughters and
a son about Is years old, sold a horse
yesterday for which she received $58.
John Morgan, about 20 years of age,
whom the Green family adopted and
raised, who until recently worked on
their farm, was present when the sale
was made and appeared to be exceed
ingly interested in the transaction.
During the afternoon he made sew
eral inquiries as TO whether the money
had been paid, and when Mrs. Green
answered in the affirmative he seemed
pleased and returned to his work.
SAID HE WAS MORGAN.
Early in the night the family were
awakened by rap at the door, the
person desiring admission announcing
himself as Morgan. AS Mrs. Green
opened the door the young man struck
her with huge club and before the
| balance of the family had reached the
spot he had beaten her to death.
i He then turned to the daughters,
! killing the eldest with one blow, and
as he thought, killing the younger in
i the same manner AS the boy wit
/ messed the murder Of his mother and
sisters he rushed through rear door
and hid in the corn crib, where he
was soon found and beaten to death
t by the assassin.
While Morgan was searching for
the boy Mrs. Green's youngest daugh-
! ter revived and escaped to the woods,
where she was followed by Morgan,
whom she eluded in the darkness.
After committing the triple murder
Morgan ransacked the house, took
what money he found and fled.
ALARMED THE NEIGHBoRHooD.
The young girl, who was the only
survivor of the terrible tragedy, re-
manned in hiding until about o'clock
this morning, when she appeared at a
neighbours house in terrible condi-
tion and reported the murders, and
an investigation of the crime started.
The story spread like lightning and
soon thorough search for the MUIR
derer was progressing with the pur
pose of lynching him. By a strange
fate he was found by officers instead
of the citizens within few miles of
the place of the crime, covered with
blood and holding tightly to the money
he had secured.
The officers, knowing it would be
unsafe to take him to the county Jail,
hid him in the woods, where he still
was at q late hour tonight. The mob
is still after him, and it appears that
they will discover and lynch him by
daylight. Mrs. Green was a member
of a prominent family, having been
married twice, the name Of her first
husband being Post. She was the
mother OF II. +. Pfost, President Of
the Ripley Bank, and DR.. James
