Important Precedent.

A suit of some Importance was
tried before Squire Cheuvront here
last Saturday. While a guest at the
Columbia notel here more than two
years ago, George w. Hill, the Fhil-
adelphia horsebuyer, claimed to have
lost his poeketbook containing 1925,
which he left in his room with the
door unlocked. Recently he brought
suit against the landlady of the hotel
for $3.50, and the trial came off last
Saturday, and strange to say Mr..
Hill got judgment for the full
amount he claimed to have lost

MISSION FRUITLESS.
The Heater Question still Unsettled
Expert Refuses to decide the Scrap.

The trip of |. G. Lazzelle and
the representative of the rival heat
er men to Boston was without re-
suits. Chief Wade of the Massa-
chusetts sanitary police refused to
decide the matter, as he could not
afford to NEEDLE in an outside scrap
However he gave Mr.. Lazzelle con-
siderable information which will
prove of value in settling the fuss.
After it was found that no settle
ment could be reached it was pro-
posed to go to Ithaca, N. T., and lay
the matter before Prof. Roland Car
penter. In New York Mr.. Peck re-
fused to proceed saying that he had
information that Prof Carpenter
had been tempered with and would
give an adverse decision. Laz-
zelle then came home arriving this
morning.
A meeting Of the board will be
held within a few days and all infor-
nation obtained on the trip will be
laid before them and an attempt will
be made to decide what is to be done,

ACorrection.

Some of the state papers have
been publishing the statement that
Prof L. G. Atkeson, of the school Of
agriculture has resigned. OF course
this is mistake and it is due to the
fact that the Professor has resigned
as regent He will retain his con-
nection with the University as the
dean of the agricultural college and
no other course has been contem-
plated by any one interested.

ChaFees Fixed.

Edgar B. Stewart, acting as pros
cutting attorney Thursday morning
obtained from Judge Romeo Freer an
injunction which effectually dispos-
ed of the Chaffee joint on Beechurst.
The injunction forbids the keeping
OF anything for sale in the building,
or any liquor of any description, any
gambling tables and abates the build
ing as public and common nuisance.
The last proyiso is in accordance
with an act passed by the last legis-
lature, and this is the first time it has
been put into execution in this state.
Any further violation of law will
bring on the violators very salty
dose for contempt of Court.

Miss Mary Semans has returned
from Pittsburg where she went to
buy a stock of winter millinery.
While no regular opening will be
held she has most complete line of
these goods on exhibition at her
store and invites the beauty loving
public to inspect it. The line of
trimmed hats is especially fine and
will probably attract the greatest
attention.
The Point Pleasant Register claims
that that village is the oldest town
on the Ohio river south of Pittsburg
They claim that it is fourteen years
older than Marietta, twelve years older
than Charleston, fifteen years older
than Gallipolis, and twenty-five years
older than Harrodsburg, the oldest
town in Kentucky. In 1892 the as
sembly of Virginia established ferry
across the Ohio and Kanawha rivers
at that point and two years later for
mally recognized Point Pleasant as a
town.

Some time ago George Adkins
committed smart trick which has
resulted in his going behind the
bars. He went into the Baltimore
Bargain store to buy a suit of
clothes. After an inspection he
picked out one and said that he
wanted to go to the Franklin House
to try it on. Mr.. Wolf gave him
permission to do so. That was the
last seen of Adkins until to day
when he was brought here by a
Fairmont officer
Yesterday the chief of police at
Fairmont telephoned Tim Bennett
that Adkins was at that place. Ser
geant Bennett told him to arrest the
thief and accordingly it was done.
He was brought down this after
noon and committed to Jail. He will
be give hearing at once. Adkins
was employed in Hunts restaurant
for some time and is quite wei
known here.

NICARAGUA NOT PANAMA.

There is no need of jumping to the
conclusion that because Great Britain
has concluded to complete the Pana-
ma canal there is no need of the Unit
ed States going on with that Nicara-
guam project. Uncle Sam wants that
Nicaraguan canal for his own accom-
odation. He can afford to build and
keep it for his own use in facilitating
ocean travel between his eastern and
western seaports. 1t is only a ques-
ton of few more years, and Alaska
will be mighty realm, Hawaii will
have an immense commerce that will
not pay to break bulk on the Pacific
coast, that whole Pacific slope from
San Diego northward will want water
communication with the eastern sea-
board, other nations will need a high
way nearer than the tedious voyage
around the horn between the ports of
the oriental nations and our own At
lantic cities, and all these cOnsidera-
lions emphasize the need that there is
of cutting canal across the cOntin-
ent for the passage of ocean steamers
Panama has been tried and found
wanting. The immense resources of
the British government may construct
canal, although 1t is pronounced i'm
practicable by the best engineering
skill of the present to maintain a wa
terway across the Isthmus of Panama,
but At will not be as direct as that
in contemplation by the United States
at Nicaragua and will be hard If not
impracticable to maintain. But even
were it not, the commerce Of the Unit
ed States is not going to pay tribute
in canal tolls to a foreign nation on
the direct route between its own east
ern and western seaboard. Sensation
al rumOrs are the stock in trade of the
cable lines and the telegraph cOmpan-
les and the news distributors. This
rumor as to John Bull knocking the
Nicaraguan canal into the middle of
next week by pushing that Panama
canal abortion to a successful delivery
is all sensation. In any event, Uncle
Sam, like the McGregor in the tale
who run his own boat at the time of
the deluge and did not depend upon
the ark, is not going to depend on an
other nation for a waterway between
New York and Frisco.

The latest news from Cuba is of an
encouraging character. The Spaniards
are confined to the towns except when
out on marauding expeditions and
then they are frequently surprised by
the insurgents, their cattle driven on,
their supplies captured, their troops
dispersed and in many instances los
ing heavily in killed and wounded.
The Spanish supply trains are the spe-
cial subjects of attack and within two
weeks three heavily guarded trains
have been surprised, two of them
broken into and valuable supplies of
ammunition and food captured.
Large supplies of dynamite have also
been received within ten days, mu-
milton of war that the insurgents are
using to splendid advantage in min
ing against the advance of Weyier
whenever he attempts to assault any
of their established positions.
