Sensational Battle Narrowly Averted at
Little Hooking.
Special Constable Stowe went down
to Little Hooking Thursday with writs
of replevin for lot of lumber lost by
the Mountain State Manufacturing
Company during the recent flood. He
was accompanied by number of en-
ployes Of the company who expected
to take charge Of the property. When
they arrived at Little Hooking they
found the lumber guarded by ten or a
dozen men. who positively refused TO
give it up and would not recognize the
writs of repleyin. Both parties OF men
were very determined and for a time
trouble was imminent Many of the
men are said to have been armed with
clubs and stones and clash would
have been serious. The parties did not
come together, however, as the Con-
stable came back to Marietta without
the lumber.
On Friday warrants were issued by
Squire Guyton for the arrest of four of
the party at Little Hooking on the
charge Of resisting an officer. Three
of the men, George Alter, Frank
Glazier and David Gillen, were arrested
and brought to this city. All gave
bond for their appearance before
squire Guyton on Saturday.

anecdote of Mark Twain which we think
L. new. A young woman, totally mex
perienced, applied TO him for recon-
mendation as "A lecturer TO the lecture
bureau. In reply he said:
First, no occupation without appren-
ticcship
SECOND, no pay to an apprentice.
He advised her To give two years 10 APP
premiership in lecturing before she could
hope to be- paid living wages.
The editor of New York magazine,
while recounting the experience common
to all editors of the countless manuscripts
sent to him by eager writers who knew
nothing Of the authors craft, said These
essays and stories are often full of inter
esting facts and of wit and pathos, but
they are thrown together like scraps of
cloth in rag bag. III the writers would
only give n year TO the study OF the mas
ters of literature, they would learn insen-
sibly what not to say They do not know
