"A WHITE WING"
Arrested Yestt rday on a Charge of
Obtaining Horse and Buggy I'm
der False Pretensss---Will Get His
Hearing Before Squire Fitzpatrick.

Last evening warrants for the arrest
of William Snyder one of the white
Wings" and William Young on the
charge Of obtaining a horse and buggy
under false pretenses, were sworn out
by S. B. Ullum, the Island liveryman,
before Squire Fitzpatrick. About $50
o'clock last night Snyder was arrested
by Officer McCausland and taken before
Squire Fitzpatrick and committed to
jail in default CT $500 bond He will
get his hearing this morning at ten
o'clock.
According to Mr.. Ullum's story Sny-
der and Young hired a horse and buggy
from his stable Thursday evening about
half-past six o'clock, saying that they
had been sent for the same by Frank
Miller. assistant street commissioner
that they intended goinging to point
east OF Elm Grove on some business and
would return with the team about ten
o'clock the same night. The men fail
ing to put in an appearance, Mr. u
lum says he became uneasy and started
out yesterday morning to look for his
property. He found that Mr.. Miller
knew nothing of the matter. Later he
found his buggy lying along side of the
street car barns and near the county
line mashed to pieces and minus the
horse Mr.. Ullum had his broken We
hicle hauled to his stable and then pro-
ceeded to search for his horse but at a
late hour had been unable to find a sub
stantial clue to its whereabouts.

SOME MUSICAL NOTES.

The concert given yesterday after
noon by the Woman's Musical Club was
a distinct success, as it well deserved TO
be- The attendance was very satisfac-
tory, and the interest in keeping with
the excellent programme and the man
ner of its rendition. Through no fault
OF the lady in charge of the programme
one number was omitted, the well
known Wedding March, which was
magnificently interpreted by Mrs. E. NJ.
Holiday and Mrs F. A. Milligan, as a
piano duet. Better treatment OF the
number could scarcely have been posi-
Bile
The programme was prefaced with
paper dealing succinctly and happily
with the life of the composer under con-
sideration. and it will be published IN
full in to-morrow's issue of the Sunday
Register.
The chorus surpassed itself, for which
credit is to be divided between Mrs.
Williams and the membership. The
opening and closing numbers were de-
voted to choral work, and each was
given with more than ordinary care and
effect. The "Ruy Bias" overture, by
Mrs Roemer Miss Amanda Spell, Mrs.
H. w. Ewalt and Miss Flora Stlfel. Is
entitled to unusual praise, and Miss
Blanche Laue, a pupil Of Mrs. c. P.
Flick, reflected the greatest credit both
upon her tutor and herself. Mrs. Lewis
Clement was the careful accompanies
throughout.
The ladies are to be congratulated
upon their latest artistic success.
Last evenings concert by Mr.. Paris
r. Meyers, assisted by Miss Zou Has
tings and Mr.. Charles Zulauf, at st.
Matthew's Church, attracted cultured
audience of music lovers. Mr.. Meyers
was at his best, and the rendition OF the
instrumental numbers was most salts
factory. Miss Zou Hastings OF
the rich and well cultivated voice
surpassed herself in the vocal number
assigned her, and decidedly added to
her reputation, while Mr.. Zulauf was
himself, which is just and sufficient
praise. The concert was decided mus
ical success.

THE DECORATIONS

AS was predicted in yesterday morn
ing's Register, the work of decorating
the city was commenced in
earnest, yesterday morning, and
was vigorously prosecuted all day and
well into the night. This morning
much additional work in this line will
be done, and by this afternoon it will
be we'll demonstrated that the city never
looked prettier in this regard. Flags
were hung out yesterday by the hun
dred, miles Of bunting was festooned
from buildings, pictures were displayed
and patriotic notices and paintings
were to be seen yesterday. The move
ment was general and spontaneous, and
showed a public determination to well
come the marching column in gala
manner as well as to do honor to the
great American victory on the other
side Of the world. AIT the City Hall and
Court House the work of decorating
was taken up early and carried on late,
and at nine o'clock last night Janitor
Sam Sloan was still putting out bunt-
ing and flags Almost without excep-
ton the business houses present a fine
appearance, while hundreds upon hun
dreds of private residences bear the
stars and stripes and the lone star Of
Cuba in almost all conceivable forms.
Some of the window decorations in
business houses are elaborate and strik-
ing, and tour of the central portion of
the city will be well worth the trouble
this afternoon and evening.
The good work did not stop last night,
but will be resumed this morning, and
carried on until noon at least. Every
available flag in the city should spread
its folds to the wind to-day. Hang out
the Star Spangled Banner, whatever
else you do.

CRUSHED 70 DEATH.
A Fatal Accident in Martins Ferry,
Yesterday.
Mable Wagner. Aged Seven Years,
Killed by Street Car No 80, on
the Wheeling Line--The Coroner's
Verdict Not Yet Rendered, But
mo One Appears to Be to Blame.

"A most sad and distressing fatality
afternoon, in which Mabel Wagner, the
seven-year-old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. George Wagner, was the victim,
she being knocked down and crushed
to death by a street car on the Wheel
ing street railway.
According to the statements OF those
who were eye witnesses to the sad af-
fair, and the testimony given at the
coroner's inquest, the details are about
as follows:
Car No. 38, on the Wheeling line,
with David Stewart as motorman and
Harry Ames conductor, was coming up
Fourth street on the one O'Clock trip.
The car was going at the usual rate OF
speed, but was slackened some as 1t
passed the Central school building, as
the school children are in the habit of
playing on the street, thus making it
dangerous to run very fast.
The car was just about past the
school building when the unfortunate
girl, who was on the east side Of the
street, ran out from behind a wagan
and directly in front of the car. Ac-
cording to the testimony of all the wit
nesses, the child appeared to be con-
fused and stopping, turned around and
started back. Motorman Stewart be-
gan to apply the brake with all his
power as soon as ne saw her, and at the
same time sounded his gong and call
ed to her, but to no avail. She appear
ed to be almost helpless in her fright
ened condition, and as the car came
upon her Stewart, according to the tes-
timony of Miss Verne Clark, reached
out over the vestibule and attempted to
push her away The child being so
small he was unable to reach her. and
moment later she lay in bruised and
bleeding heap with her head wedged
between the brake rod and the rail,
death being almost instantaneous.
The car was stopped before It had
dragged her over four or five feet and
had to be raised before the body could
be removed The remains were remov-
6u 10 NOUlG s uuuel ldhluS tSldbiiSi-
ment, where they were dressed. A deep
cash about one and a half inches long
was found over her left temple, her
head back of the left ear was crushed
and the frontal bone fractured, any of
which would have caused instant death.
Besides these fracture she sustained a
cash nearly four inches long below the
knee on the left leg, and her body was
terribly scratched and bruised.
Coroner Beetham held the inquest
yesterday afternoon, but did not give
his decision, but it is thought when he
does it will be accidental death, at
taching no blame On no one, for such
was the testimony The blow is hard
one for the parents to stand up against.
as the child was bright and promising.
Mrs. Wagner upon hearing Of it ran
to where the accident occurred only to
suffer that terrible silent grief that can
not be comforted, and then grow I'M
conscious. She laid in this condition
for about three hours.
