tracing the attention of everybody.
JOHN WELLS and Peter Wells are

RUSSELL Huston caught the, big
gest pike of the season yesterday.
1t was forty inches long and weighed
fifteen pounds. 1t was caught about
mile up the river on troll.
THE plasterers have finished their
work on the Baptist church, getting
done this morning. The pointers
and carpenters are still busy on it.
The church is very beautiful on the
inside.
A. w. JONES to-day finished paper
ing and painting the interior of the
residence occupied to DIR. Ray
mond. The work done is the finest
in town and speaks volumes for his
ability in this line.
The dry weather is having a
damaging effect on the chestnut
crop, and the mountaineers say it
will be almost failure. Two weeks
ago the prospects were bright for a
yield. The burs were large and heal
thy and abundant also. Since then
they have become parched and
shriveled up and it is doubtful II
rain at this time would do much in
nourishing them back to vigorous
growth.

Down Bank Hill went Little Guy Utter
back on his runaway Vel0cfpede--
Strikes Pole and Is thrown but
not badly Hurt.

This morning about II o'clock Guy
Utterback and some other small boys
were playing in the street near the
postoffiee. During their play Guy
jumped on his velocipede and started
down the pavement on the north side
Of the street. A companion pursued
him. He made his machine go as
rapidly as possible. He soon lost
control of it and it went down the hill
like shot. Opposite the centre OF
the B. & l. block the wheel struck a
telephone pole throwing him to the
sidewalk. He was bruised up consid
erably. He will hardly try this route
again for coast. Had he gone cleal
to the bottom of the hill the conse
quences would likely have been very
serious. AS it was he was scared
worse than he was hurt.

THE TURN vEREIN EXCURSION.
A Most Delightful Affair-Fyerythine
Passes of Smoothly.

The Turn Verein Concordia gave
yesterday to their friends most
enjoyable excursion on the Mason.
The day was spent on the river and
the return made in good time. The
boat landed its passengers in Pool
No. for dinner. The return was
made before dark. Over three hun
dred went on the excursion. No
disorder of any kind occurred to
mar the pleasure of the occasion.
Everything passed off smoothly,
nothing unusual occurring. Over
800 was cleared by the society from
the proceeds of the excursion.
Probably no excursion has ever gone
down the river from here which re-
suited in nicer time to the partici-
pants. We congratulate the Turner's
on the success which attended their
efforts.

Yesterdays DAILY New DOMINION
contained very important news item.
1t stated thatF. M. Protzman's assessor
books were finished and were ready to
be turned over. Uncle Raymond
Griggs, of Clinton district, has
for his whole life as taxpayer
tried to be the first to pay his taxes
each year. This year was no exception
to the rule. He appeared in town be-
fore breakfast and paid his taxes for
this year receiving the first receipt
issued by Sheriff Garrison. He was
very much delighted over his success
again and chuckled over it.
He has been beaten but once in his
career and that was due to no fault of
his but to mistake about the time
the books were completed. This hap
pened two or three years ago and will
never happen again If he can help it..
II all our tax payers were as prompt
as Uncle Raymond the life Of the
sheriff of the county would be one
glad sweet song. AS it is he has to
continually harp, but his theme Is the
cussedness OF the average taxpayer
rather than his virtues.

Valuable Horse Dies.

George Vance lost a valuable
horse yesterday morning. The ami
NAL was taken sick Sunday evening
and died between 3 and 6 o'clock
yesterday morning. The cause of
his death was probably collie. Mr..
Vance after working with him from
5 P. NJ. until 3 A. NJ. took him over to
the farm and left him. On going
back at 6, the horse was found dead.
1t was valuable one just in his
prime. One hundred and seventy
five dollars had been offered and re
fused for him. For the present Mr..
Vance is driving mule belonging
to Captain Gilmore.

Hon. Frank Cox returned from
Charles Town this morning. He had
been there to look after some impor-

He was seen by representative
of this paper on his arrival and
asked about the Musgrave case. at

said. 81 have this on the authority
of the judges of the Court of APP

Everyone will be glad to hear OF
this, as it is time to decide this one
way OF another. If he should have
new trial, it should be given him
as speedily as possible. If not, the
county should be relieved of the ex-
pense attached to such a long incar-
ceration.

SATURDAY was payday at the
Seneca Glass Works, and business
in town in consequence was triae
brisker than ordinarily.
THE Connellsville Courier speaks OF
one firm in that city taking mail tc
the postofiice by the cart load. One
establishment in Morgantown sent
out forty two tons of mail last year.
Our hustling little neighbor. Con-
nellsville, is to have free delivery be.

SECRETARY Brown, of the State
Board of Agriculture, says that
there will be an extra good grape
yield this season, that the peach crop
will not be more than half the aver
age yield, and apples only about
sixty or seventy per cent. of a full
crop.
THE Morgantown papers have ex-
cellent portraits OF the new president,
DR.. Raymond and Director Stewart of
! the Experiment Station, in the last
issues. The University, as has here
tofore been said by The Journal,
opens this year under unusually favor
able circumstances. DIR. Raymond, we
predict, will be popular with all par
ties, sects and people. -KingwoodJour.
ONE business firm of this place
bought ten thousand one cent postage
stamps last week. The receipts of
the postoffice at the money order win
dow last week were $90150. This Of
fee will go into the second class at the
end of the year. That will make the
postmaster's salary $1,000, with all
the clerk hire he needs added, together
with an allowance for rent, lights and
numerous other perquisites.
THE consolidated report of the lock
keepers on the Monongahela river for
the month of August, as compiled in
the Office Of Major Chas. Powell, corps
of U. S. engineers, is as follows;
Number of lockages made by up
steamboats,, $3.50; down steamboats,,
2, 238; number passengers carried up
stream, SO, 865; down stream, $500.
The total amount of coal passing up
was SO, 127 tons; passing down, 1885,
600 tons. The shipping of coal up
the river is an unusual occurrence.
SEVERAL persons went over Cheat
last evening to witness the moon-rise
from the new club house. The view
xno n III
pressed themselves as highly pleased
with the trip which, aside from the
dusty roads, was most pleasant one.
Mr.. and Mrs. James II. Stewart, DIR.
and Mrs. A. ID. Hopkins, DR.. and Mrs.
Courtney, f. X. and Harry O'Kelly,
Mrs. Grove Chadwick and Sam, G. w.
Huston and Elmer Jacobs were among
those who spent the evening at the
club house.
The weather for the last week has
been a record-breaker. 1t has fur
nished several days which exceed
any September days for heat since
1884. They were nearly as hot as
the warm spell in July and were
certainly too hot for comfort. The
weather man promised to give us
cooler weather yesterday, but he
evidently failed to deliver the goods.
The cool nights are the only things
which make life endurable. At the
same time they give everybody colds
and nearly everyone has more or
less cold. No prostrations have oc-
Cured from the heat as yet, but the
suffering has been very great from
this source.

SAVED BY SALT WATER.
1t Is Injected Into the Veins of nm
Injured Man.

No case in the history Of Hahnemann
Hospital has ever interested the doctors
and nurses as much as the remarkable one
Of Charles Chatterton. who was struck in
the side by the shaft of a cab at Broad and
Fiber streets on the 7th inst, says the
Philadelphia Ledger. He was taken to the
hospital in grave condition land rapidly
became SO much worse that, fearing he had
been internally injured, Or. Ncrthrop made
an incision and found the spleen badly torn
in two places
While this was beig done the patient
was sinking rapidly and as a last resort,
although the case was regarded as almost
hopeless three and one-half quarts Of
warm salt water were injected into the
veins through the arm and leg to take the
place of the exceedingly large quantity Of
blood that was lost. This infusion has been
used before in such cases, where the loss
Of blood has been great, for, were 1t not
DONE the heart, having nothing to pump,
would soon cease beating.
The injured spleen was carefully and an
tiseptically packed In gauze to stop its
bleeding, and Chatterton was placed in bed,
with but little hope of his recovery. But
he lived through the night. ard. although
slightly stronger the next day, was sttll so
low that there was scarcely any hope that
he would survive the injury and shock.
AS Chatterton still continued to improve
in the face Of such odds. the doctors began
to take more interest in the case. He was
given blood making foods and two subse-
quent inf,lsions of salt water The treat
ment seemed to agree with him particular
ly well, for 1t is said he is now fairly on the
road to recovery.
