Yesterday morning a United States
marshal, whose name could not be
learned, came to Martins Ferry for
the purpose of arresting Robert Rich
ardson, on a charge of offering to Sc
cure pensions at ridiculously low
price. Richardson was arrested about
two weeks ago, after he had secured
three dollars from Leonard Fisher on
a promise that he would secure a pen
sion for him.
The United States marshal asked
Officer Tolbert to arrest Richardson.
Tolbert went up to Richardson S
home, on First street, near the blast
furnace, and attempted to arrest his
man. Richardson demanded that the
warrant for his arrest be read to him,
and Tolbert did not have the warrant,
but insisted upon taking Richardson.
At this point Richardson's wife and
another man and woman took a hand
in the matter.
Richardson's wife pulled 2 picture
down from the wall and beat Tolbert
over the head with it, breaking il into
number of pieces, and incidentally
doing considerable damage to Toll
bert's head
Tolbert managed to get word TO the
officers and it was not long before the
Mayor and Marshal went up with the
proper warrant, secured the man, and
placed him in the lookup. Richardson
will be taken to Steubenville to-day
to answer to the charges made against
him.

There was no further outbreak OF
trouble between the non-uniOn en-
ployes of the Bellaire steel works and

Fourteen Of them were in Wheeling,
and returned to Bellaire on train No.

disorderly manner that Brannen arrest

members of his party reached for their
revolvers, but Brannen took his pris-

Rev. R. R. Bigger, pastor of the Third
Presbyterian Church, has been preach
ing a series of special sermons, which
have been greatly interesting. The SER
mons are characterized by deep
thought and carry conviction with them
Last night he preached upon THE
Atheistic Fool" who denies the exist
ence of God. The subject Eas han
died in mastery manner and deserves
wide reading. The following is the SER
mon in part:
The fool hath said in his heart,
There is no God "-Ps. Ii. 1.
The Biblical use of the word fool
does not make it signify man who is
destitute of mind, an idiot, but it re
fers to one who is lacking in wisdom,
and hence guilty of folly. Men very
often regard as fools all who do not
believe as they do. A noted egotist
once made this statement: "All men are
fools except myself and my friends"
then, after little thought, he said, re-
fectively, and l am not quite sure
about my friends" The man who calls
another a fool lays himself open to the
charge Of egOtism. 1t is not the duty
of one man to judge another; rather
let the eye that can search all hearts,
pass judgment. He, the all-wise and
every holy One, has declared that the
man who says in his heart, there is
no God. is a fool. In referring to the
atheistic fool, we simply take him with
the label which the Almighty has al
ready fixed upon him. Now, l am 60
ing to lay down three self-evident
truths, the denial of which makes a
man a self-confessed fool; the accept
ance of them makes atheism Well-nigh
impossible.
Whoever is not willing to accept
well authenticated facts is foolish
man.
Now what fact is more fully authenti-
Gated than the existence of God? The
heavens declare the glory of God and
the armament shows His handiWOrk.
Nature is vocal testifying To Him with
