RE.ARRANGEMENr OF DUTIES.
The Ohio River Railroad EmplOye
Changed About.

An official order of the Ohio
River railroad became opera ative at
this point last evening, and by it
there is quite change about among
the employees of the company. The
object of this decree from the" seats
of the mighty" is evidently to cur
tail In the expenses of the road, but
it would appear to a superficial
observer that the large volume OF
business transacted here would
warrant the numerical strength OF
the present focce.
Chris Henderson, the cashier,
will, in addition to the onerous du-
ties Of his position, have supervi
sion over the freight department.
Ed c. Taylor, the day operator,
will combine with his duties those
of ticket agent. c. E. Kelly, the
night operator, has been trans
ferred to MoundsvilIe and is
succeeded by D. H. Galbraith,
freight clerk.

generous to the needy and suffering.

Proved Innocent OF the Charge ea
HeinOus Assault.

George Melat, who was falsely
accused of the crime against little
Laura Shafen, had hearing yester-
day afternoon before Squire
Drennen He was completely ex-
onerated for all connection with the
affair and released from custody.
Mrs. Shafer stated to the court
that she was now very certain that
Melat was not the man whom she had
had reason to believe was her little
daughters assailant. Subsequent
developments had fully convinced
her that her charge against Melat
was unfounded and she wished to
withdrew her charge.
Little Laura was again confront
ed by Melat and stated emphatical-
ly that be was rot the man who had
assaulted her. There was nothing
left for the court to do but to dis
miss Melat, which was gladly done.
Melat was glad to get out and was
heartily congratulated upon his
success.
Bates was brought before Squire
Drennen this afternoon and was re-
c, mmitted to Jail until Monday at
ternoon. by the agreement OF both
sides, when he will have his pre-
liminary hearing.
The exonera-ion Of Melat has
caused much rejoicing in this city
among his many friends who had
implicit confidence in his limo"
cence. His arrest for such crime
was a lamentable thing, and the
ordeal he passed through terrible
one.

VISITED THE SCHOOLS,
And.were Delighted With thesa>Ondi-
tion OF Everything.

Mrs. Reynolds, Mrs. Armstrong
and Mrs. Bowden, made a tour OF
the schools in the high school
building, yesterday, in the interest
of scientific temperance, and were
delighted with their visit. The ap.
pearance and order of the various
rooms and scholars were highly
commendable. Surely the parents
of the children of Sistersville have
just cause for thankfulness for the
presence of Prof. Skinner and his
able corps of assistance, and for the
building. which is a model of clean
illness. Why do the parents not
oftener visit the schools, thus show
ing appreciation and encouraging
children and teachers?

KILLED BY TIE CARS.
A Prominent Farmer of Pleas
ants County.
PROSTRATE ON TRACK
Was the Victim When Seen BY
the Engineer.
Harvey Bradfeld, rich and in
huential farmer of Peasants county,

Harvey Bradfeld, a rich and in
huential farmer of Peasants county,
was killed by the late passenger
train Saturday evening at Grape
Island, three miles above st. Marys,
and opposite his h me. The rail.
road track curves near the scene OF
the fatality, and when the engineer
discovered the PROSTATE form of a
man on the track ahead it was too
late to bring the engine to stand
still. The train was running at
unusual speed at the time in the en-
deavor to make up twenty minutes
behind the scheduled time.
By some tortuitous circumstance
the body of the victim escaped the
mangling and decapitation which
usually attends such casualties.
When the train was stopped the
body was found close to the rails.
There was a deep abrasion in the
head which had caused instant
death and the for6nger and thumb
of the left hand were badly lacer-
ated. These were the only wounds.
The remains were taken on the
train and removed to this city, ac'
companied by G. w. Bradfeld, a
SON of the deceased. Our funeral
director, w. F. Rice, took charge of
the remains here, and the body was
returned to its late -home Sunday
morning. The funeral occurred
this afternoon and was largely at
tended. The interment was in the
Tuel cemetery on the Ohio side.
Bradfeld was in this city Satur-
day and left on tine afternoon train,
it is understood, ostensibly for his
home. The supposition is that he
alighted from the train at Perkers-
burg and took the steamer Barns
dali for home in the evening. In
any event, he was a passenger on
this boat and lett the landing at
Grape Island for the home he nev-
er reached. He was about fifty
years of age.
While laying out the remains for
burial, Undertaken Rice found a
roll of bills amounting to 1886. in
the pocket of an overcoat which
the deceased wore at the time OF his
death. This money had been over
looked when the search for identifi-
cation papers was made.
Brad6eld had a large acquaint-
ancce in this city, and formerly
owned the farm bearing his name,
two miles down the river. A mum.
Der of fine oil wells were drilled in
on the property while he owned it
and he amassed a small fortune
therefrom. After selling this farm
he purchased the property which
he was in possession of at the time
of death.
LATER A coroner's inquest
was held at St. Marys yesterday
afternoon and the verdict exonerat-
ed the railway company from all
blame in the matter, and ascribed
the death to an accidental cause.
1t is probable that Bradfeld was
seized with an attack of vertigo or
some other sudden illness, or else
stumbled on the rail and fell with
such force as to make him uncon-
scious.

A HORRIBLE DEATH.
A Man Well known In This City Fatal
ly Burned.

VIM. Sweeney, of Salamanca, N.
Y, tool dresser in the Henderson
Oil field, was fatally burned tc
death about O'Clock Saturday
morning by the bursting of a steam
pipe near Boaz. Sweeney retired
last night as usual, but woke up
shortly after midnight and went to
the boiler of the Walnut Tree Oil
company's Henderson No. 3 we'll,
crawled under the boiler and went
to sleep. He had been asleep but
a short time when a steam pipe
burst over him, and he was com :
pletely enveloped in the escaping
steam, which cooked him alive.
Sweeney had large acquaintance
IN this city.
