DEATH CLAIMS
A FOREMOST
CITIZEN.
Judge Joseph R. PAUL Died at
$3.50 O'Clock This Morning, the
End Coming Unexpeetedly.
HE WAS AN UPRIGHT JUDGE
And Enjoyed the Respect Of the
People Of the Pan Handle
Where Known and Loved.


At ESQ O'Clock this morning Death
the grim reaper. before whom all that
IL mortal must Inevitably bow. claimed
as Its victim one OF wheellng's most
distinguished citizens, in the person Of
Judge Joseph Rogers PAUL, one OF the
Judges Of the First judicial district OF
West vlrginia-a man whose qualities
of mind and heart have endeared him
throughout this section OF the state,
where he was so well known.
Judge PAUL. has for several yeara
been in delicate health, his lungs be-
ing aRected. About year ago his
condition alarmed his wife and friends
and for time he vacated the bench
going, with Mrs. PAUL. to Pass Chris
tian, Mississippi, where It was hoped
the balmy Gulf breezes would restore
the sick man to state of good health,
Temporarily his stay in the south did
have this effect, for upon the Judges
return to Wheeling and resumption Of
judicial duties he showed some OF his
old time vigor OF body. Recently
however, the old trouble was again be-
coming serious. Only last week there
was a turn for the worse and a Few days
ago the Judge was compelled to take
to his rooms in the stamm house.
All that loving and devoted wife
with the kindly assistance of true
friends, could do was done, together
with unremitting attention at the hands
OF Drs. Reed and L. D. Wilson, yet II
was fated that their hopes and etiorts
were to prove frultless and unavalling,
Early last night, however, the patients
condition, althouh not encouraging, was
not considered at all critical, and the
end came most unexpectedly.
None who has worn the judicial err
mine has enjoyed more of respect than
Judge PAUL. BY bar and public alike
he was esteemed for the honesty, abIlI-
ty ana kindllness that were so largely
evident in his character. No word Of
reproech has ever been uttered on
any official act OF his; personally he
was kindly and consIderate to all, rich
or poor, lawyer or layman.
In his death West Virginia loses q
Judge whose place 1t will be difficult to
hll, and wheeling losss most estlma-
BILE gentleman.
Joseph Rogers PAUL. was born pecen-
ber Q. 1S4s, in Fayette county, Pennsyl-
vanla. He received in his youth and
early manhood liberal education, and
through life has been close student.
He read law, and making West Virginia
the state OF his adoption became prac-
tlcing attorney in this city. In No
yember, 1883, he was elected on the
Republican ticket Judge of the First
judicial district, comprising the coun-
ties Of Ohio, Hancock, Brooke and Mar
shall, and in 1895 he was re-elected for
a second term OF eight years. Some
wears ago he married Miss Lille HeIs-
kell, daughter of the late o. W. Heis-
kell who survives. Judge PAUL was a
member OF the First Presbyterian
church.
The funeral arrangements, OF course,
had not been made early this morning.

VENEZUELAN REVOLUTION

According TO Latest Advlces Is As

KINGSTON, Jamaica, Sept. t5.-Ad-
vices from In Guayra, the Port Of Car
acas, capital of Venezuela, dated Tues
day, report that the Venezuela revolu-
tlon under the leadership of General
cfprtano Castro, is assuming over
whelming proportions, In spite Of the
wholesale Imprisonment Of political per-
sonages known to be implicated in or
who are suspected of completely in the
movement against the government and
who have been unable to reach the In
surgent lines.
The government has tesn endeavorlng
to prevent the news from reaching the
ports, but It was understood at La
Guayra that President Andrade would
change the composition Of his cabinet
and proceed to take command OF the
government troops, which had sustaln-
ed two severe defeats, losing quantities
OF munitions OF war, camp equipments
and prisoners, suggesting the desertion
Of he government troops and collusion
upon the part of the government gem
erals with the lnSurgent forces.
The populace Of Caracas and La
Guayra Is apathetic, but the whole In
terior Is reported to be rising behind
the banner of the revolution.

Men have been busy for the past two
days cutting the grass. The servant
girls can be seen walking up and down
the long walk any fair day with small
children, who thoroughly enjoy an out
ing in the spacious playground Another
thing which is very noticeable when the
weather is warm is the large number of
people occupying the benches to enjoy
the breeze in the shade of the trees
which sweeps through the long pathways
Tne parks at Washington and Grand
streets are also in fine shape. The boys,
ranging from ten to fourteen years of
age, who trample upon the grass and play
ball and other games, should be stopped
or the grass will be ruined When
ball is hit it often bounds in the trees,
knocking branches from them and litter
ing the park with them. A man. should
be stationed at this park to stop such
nuisance, as some of the small chill
dren who played about the walks might
be accidentally struck by a flying ball
and be seriously injured.
