KingMood Takes Water.

When Morgantown defeated King.
wood recently the yanquished clamor.
ed loudly for another game saying that
the defeat was an accident and that
all was needed to demonstrate the
fact was for Morgantown to give them
another game. OF course this was
all bosh. The victory was won on its
merits and the manager OF the Local
team was not averse to playing the
buckwheat huskers again. So letter
was sent them saying that Morgan.
town would be pleased TO meet King
wood again in either place and at any
time Kingwood might designate. The
reply to this stated that the Preston
county lads had several hard games to
play that week but would be glad to
play us when these had been played.
Since then we have waited but moth.
ing further has been learned. 1t is
not at all likely that more games will
be played. Kingwood may be slow in
some respects but she evidently knows
when she has enough.

COMING OR GOING
John l.. Wilson Seems Bound to Win
His Suit.

A peculiar state of affairs exists
in the suit of the administrator OF
the estate of Stephen b. Wilson OF
near Ponetown. Mr. Wilson died
last January leaving no will. J. J.
Moore was appointed as administra-
tor. He brought suit to settle the
estate. John l.. Wilson the son OF
the deceased Stephen filed an answer
in the nature of a cross bill which is
a document harJ 10 get around. He
wins if he loses and either way it
goes he is all right He alleges that
he had contract with his parents
to the effect that for caring for them
during their lives he was to have the
farm. Also that for work done he
was to be paid certain wages. These
wages have not been paid. Should
he establish his right to the farm on
the first claim, all right. If not, he
has a claim against the estate which
will amount to more than the farm
is worth. The property is worth
about $4,000 There are eight heirs
beside John l.. The case will be tried
at the next term of court. Cox and
Baker are attorneys for the admin
istrator and oturgiss and Campbell
appear for John l.. Wilson.

Islander Case.

About six months ago at gath
ering in this county difficulty
arose. Some hard swearing was done
and during the course of the remarks
Granville Tenant alleges that MIN
rod Moore cast some severe asper-
sions on his ancestry particularly on
his mother. Moore denies this. Ten
nant has brought suit for SANDER,
as, under the code this offense is ac-
tionable as such. Under the com
mon law it is not SANDER. 1t will
probably be tried at the next term
of court. If it is decided that dam
ages may be collected for such offense
it may happen that many such suits
will be brought. There is too much
|of such insults and the practice
should be severely checked.

Seating Capacity.
A committee was recently appointed
by the Baptist congregation to select
seats for their new church. The com.
mittee was composed of Rev. Nc.
Cutcheon, DIR. p. B. Reynolds, REL.
Allen, Columbus Long and w. e.
Price. They placed the contracts last
week for the seats. Price Bros, OF
Morgantown, are to furnish those fol
the Sunday School room. These are
to be chairs and are furnished at
cost by these gentlemen. They will
be placed in the building within three
weeks and the congregation will then
use the room for place Of worship
until the church room proper can be
finished. The Sunday School room
will seat 800 people. The contract
for seating che church was given to a
Grand Rapids concern. Regular
church pews will be put in. The very
finest material and workmanship are
to be used in making them. They
will be decidedly the finest in town
and will give a seating capacity OF
600. Both rooms can be thrown to-
gether by means Of folding doors and
extra seats put in giving total ca.
pacity Of 1000. This is by far the
largest number which can be seated
in any similar building In town and
is exceeded only by the commencement

driving down Peasants street their
horse became frightened and ran
away. He turned up Front street
going at full speed. The efforts OF
Mr.. TAFT to stop the animal proved
ineffective. At Walnut street Mrs.
TAFT jumped from the buggy and
fell with great violence. She ESCAPED
without further injury than a severe
shaking up. The runaway turned
down Maiden Alley past the electric
light plant to the railroad. Here
Mr.. TAFT was thrown out and he too
was not injured to any extent. The
horse ran up the railroad and on to
the bridge. Here his legs went
through the timbers and some time
was required to extricatc him. The

An Immense Crowd Attends James
Teter's Funeral.

The funeral of Jas. w. Teter, at
Arnettseille, Sunday was by a great
deal the largest ever held in the
county, a crowd which was simply
immense attended. The funeral was
in charge of the Odd Fellows of
which Mr.. Teter was an honored
member. One hundred and forty
members of tn, order attended from
Morgantown and large delegation
was present from Fairmont. The
Cassville tent of Maccabees were
present in a body as well as mem
bers of several other adjacent tents.
The funeral was conducted by Rev.
Ash, of Grafton Short services
were held at the house and the flu
neral was preached at Oak Grove
church The interment was at the
Arnettsville cemetery. Conserva-
tive estimates place the crowd at
over two thousand. A count was
made of the vehicles and after more
than five hundred were enumerated
it was abandoned. The people took
this method of showing their respect
and admiration for the deceased who
was deservedly and universally re-
spected and esteemed.
