nATFIELD'S BAD RELATIVE.
On the eve of Soaps Trial Charles
Stratt0n Fatally Wounds two
Officers.

LOGAN, w. Va, October The
trial of the notorious Gap" Hatfield
for murder will be begun to-day if a
jury can be secured. Last night
while a number of the witnesses
were assembled in barber shop
here fight ensued between Charles
Stratton and Joseph Blackburn, the
former a near relative of the Hat
fields. Town Marshal William Huff
attempted to quell the fight, when
Stratton shot and fatally wounded
him. Stratton attempted to escape
but Deputy Sheriff Mitchell Hender-
son and citizens went in pursuit
When he was about to be captured
he turned and fired all his ammu-
milton at his pursuers, one of the
bullets penetrating Deputy Sheriff
Henderson's left breast, and ne will
die also Stratton then surrendered
and is in Jail. Many threats of
lynching are heard tonight. This
outbreak will have a great bearing
in the trial of Hatfield, for the citi-
zens are now thoroughly aroused,
and are determined to put stop to
so much lawlessness

NOT THE SAME CHER :"
An Inattentive Student Surprised, But
Answered According to His Own No
ton.

A class at the University the other
day was discussing the character and
fate of Marie Antoinette. Every
member of the class was showing a
deep interest in the subject except a
handsome young fellow, sitting on one
of the back seats.
On his face the professor noticed a
sweet and far-away look that showed
his thoughts were with fair woman
of rather more recent date than the
one under discussion. After num-
Der Of the students had given their
opinions concerning the unfortunate
queen, seeing his opportunity to catch
student mapping, the professor sud-
denly wheeled his chair and looked
straight at the dreamer.
"And now, Mr.. will you please
tell us what you think about her?n
The young man suddenly awakened
from his dream with start.
"Her? Why" he instantly replied,
"she's the dearest. sweetest little girl

Explosion.

AsHrABULA, Ohio, October "a
During the war of 1872 a British
warship fired several shells ashore
at this point and some have been
preserved as relics. Yesterday one
accidentally got into some scrap iron
at the Phoenix iron works and went
into the furnace with the rest of the
scrap. The furnace doors were
blown to atoms. The workmen were
in another part of the foundry and

How He Got Customers.

A Western farmer who had been
selling his milk for two cents quart
thought he would try for part Of the
trade of small town near him when
the retail price was five cents. He
invited the people to come out to his
farm upon certain day, and he
showed them over the farm, exhibited
his stock and explained his system of
feeding and general management.
Then came the milking. The milk
men came out with clean shirts and
snow white aprons, bringing pals of
hot and cold water. They thoroughly
washed their hands, and then the I'D
ders ana teats of the COWS with warm
water and CASTLE soap, rinsing them
carefully and wiping dry. The YES
sells for holding the milk were bright
and clean, the stables and stalls
were clean. The milk was strained,
aerated, quickly cooled and placed in
a cool, clean cellar. All the details
were explained to the visitors as the
work progressed, and they went home
satisfied that there they could obtain
clean and wholesome milk. The next
day he sought customers and found a
market for all he could supply at six
cents quart, or cent above the mar
ket rate in the town, and it was but
little more trouble to deliver it than
to have carried it to the railroad sta
ton and send it to Chicago for two
cents . quart American Cultivator.

anxious and wearisome ones for
Barney. Aggie went to the very
threshold of death, but she did not
cross it, and the loving brother had
the infinite satisfaction Of believing
though more likely than not he was
wrong in his belief-that the happy
issue was entirely due to the skill of
the physician his money had made
possible.
After the little sister had recovered
and the doctor had been paid, Barney
began again to set aside the dimes and
nickels for the purpose which he still
kept in mind; but things are always
going at cross purposes in the Rollins
household. There have been overdue
wood and coal bills, butchers and
grocers' accounts to pay, and shoes to
buy for the children. There are many,
many imperative demands where a
family is large, the father drunkard
and the income small.
Nearly two years have passed since
Barney Rollins began saving money
for wig. His head is still just as
smooth and shiny; and his sensitive
ness just as keen as at the beginning.
The boys still call!him Badly" Mamie
O'Rourke still treats him with pity
ing condescension harder to bear than
downright abuse. He is working and
saving still, just as if nothing had hap
pened; always hopeful, sustained in
his disheartening efforts by the vision
of himself as he will appear, once the
coveted wig is in its place.
He earns more now, and the time is
sure to come, if he keeps on, when he
will be able to purchase something in
the way Of head-gear far more suitable
than the paltry ten-dollar scratch
wig" he has set his heart on, beautiful
as that seems to him now.
In the meantime, though he does
not suspect it, Barney Rollins's bald
head is a veritable crown of glory; and
to those Of us who know his simple
history the light Of the lamps in the
bowling ALLEY where he works, makes,
as it is reflected from That shining bald
head, a halo of which no saint need
be ashamed. Youths Companion.

'BARNEY ROLLINS
! CROWN OF GLORY.

T the time Barney
Rollins was fifteen
years old he lost
every spear Of his
hair as the result of
sickness; thereby he
became the laughing
stock of his own
family and Of all the
other families in his
alley.

"gang." Mamie O'Rourke, whose
esteem Barney held above all price,
and who had singled him out, before
his illness, for her smiles and favors,
pitied where form erly she had adj
mired, and was kind but condescend-
ing.
Even the tiniest street urchin hooted
him, as the children in the Bible story
hooted the prophet, Elisha. Though
they did not use the precise words of
those children, $50 up, thou bald
head" they used words just as un-
pleasant to hear, and Barney, unlike
the Hebrew prophet, had no she-bears
at his command. At fifteen boy sets
great storeby his personal appearance;
and it must not be imagined that, be-
cause he lived at the end Of a grimy,
cluttered, six-foot-wide alley, in
rickety tenement on which the sun
shone not more than fifteen minutes a
day, Barney Rollins did not have as
much pride as boys of the same age
who are better housed.
On the contrary, Barney felt his
misfortune quite as keenly as many a
pampered little aristocrat would have
done, for, be was a boy Of an excep-
tionally fne-grained nature, and his
very soul was embittered by this dis
fgurement which coarser-fbred boy
would not have minded.
Down town, one day, Barney saw,
in the show. window of q theatrical
supply-shop, fine array Of wigs, and
among them one that in color and tex
ture seemed so exact copy Of his own
departed hair that his heart was IN
his mouth in an instant. The sight
thrilled him through and through.
Drawing certain ridicule, he entered
the shop andinquired the price. "Ten
dollars!" For him, at that moment it
might as we'll have been ten thousand.
Never mind; he must and would have
that wig!
Easy enough to resolve, but how to
achieve, with his slender resources?
The place he had held before his ILL.,
ness, as errand-boy for a large dry
goods firm, had been given back to
him, and was worth three dollars and
fifty cents week. But every cent of
this had to be given up for the sup
port of the family, and Barney knew
we'll enough it would be no use to try
to divert any Of it to himself. He was
not inclined to cheat his parents, and
had he been he could not by any
chance have done it; they were too
vigilant for that.
To get the wig he must earn more
money, and to earn more money he
must have more work. The extra in
come from the extra work would be
all his own; for to this his parents
so at least it seemed to Barney-could
have no righteous claim.
As nothing better suggested itself,
Barney put his resolution into effect
by returning to the early morning
boot cleaning and paper selling he
had been glad to give up when he had
attained to he dignity of a position in
+ dry goods house. He also found
chances to deliver goods for fish
markets and meat markets on Thurs
day and Saturday nights respectively.
Later on he bargained with one of
his boy friends, who was employed
