WADE GRANT
Taken Back To Parkersburg from
the Wheeling Jail.

Wade Grant, the negro of Parkers-
Lurg who stands charged with an at
tempt at criminal assault upon Mrs. A.
j. Barry, of Macksburg, is again in the
Wood county Jail at Parkersburg, hav-
ing been taken there from Wheeling,
where he was taken for safe keeping af-
ter the demonstration of Parkersburg-
ers who wanted to lynch him.
Grant told the officers who returned
him to his old quarters in the Jail that
he was glad to get back, as he had
been nearly starved to death on bean
soup and other unpalatable food while
in Wheeling. No doubt a man who
has been used to the sumptuous fare
provided by the ladies of Parkersburg
would feel somewhat cast down at
having to live on bean soup and bread
1t is not thought that there will be
any trouble with the lynch law ele-
ment of Parkersburg's population now
and the trial may be held at this term
of the Criminal Court and he is sure
of fair and impartial hearing.

Macksburg.

One of the most exciting events that
has stirred this community for many
days is the unexpected resignation
and departure of Rev. D. S. Welch, of
the M. E. church. Rev. Welch was
serving his fifth year as pastor of the
Macksburg charge. He was recognized
as one of the leading preachers Of the
Cambridge district.
EARLY this week he went to Marietta
to have some dental work done. When
next heard from he was in Ottawa, o.,
from which place he sent his resigna-
ton and stated, as we understand, that
domestic troubles was the cause of his
leaving. He stated that he would pro-
vide for his children, and that he in
tended to pay all his debts as soon as
he could
1t is hoped, however, for the sake of
the three children that he will return
to the family. The children are two
boys, aged IA and 16, and little girl
aged 10.

Real Estate Boom in Parkersbure

1t is said that real estate agent of
Parkersburg was in the city and called
upon one of the .ocal real estate deal

red lots since the beginning of the year
Among these there have been twenty
seven sold in the new Fair Ground ad-

A BRIDGE
Will Be Asked for at the Next Meet
ing OF the County Commissioners.

Out in Barlow township there is a
creek known as the west branch of
Wolf Creek, and there is a certain
place where the public Is Obliged to
cross, but there is no bridge and the
ford is in such bad condition that 1t is
positively dangerous to cross there
when there is any ice or the water is
any higher than usual.
Only a few weeks ago Mrs. Wales
Wilson, who lives near there was rid
ing horse back and when she attempt
ed to cross the ford, the horse slipped
and fell throwing her off into the icy
waters of the creek where the water
was two or three feet in depth. She
managed to get out without any injur-
les except very uIsagreeable wetting,
and walked up to the top of the hill
near the scene of the occurrence, and
by that time her clothing was frozen
stiff.
A petition has been prepared to be
presented to the County Commission
ers at their next regular meeting, ask
ing that bridge be placed over the
stream at this point in order that the
danger may be reduced. The bridge
need not be very expensive one and
should be placed If it Is posslble.1

.Franklin's Religion,

The February instalment of Mr..
Paul l.. Ford's papers on "The Many
Sided Franklin" has for its subject the
philosophers attitude toward religion.
His life began in the most orthodox
fashion, though it did not long contin-
lie so. Trustworthy tradition says that
his mother took him through the
snow to the old South Church, Boston,
IN the very day he was born, believing
hat he would be damned IL he died un-
baptised. That either mother or child
'hould survive such exposure seems
Utmost miraculous to us degenerate
moderns. Franklin became disguised
with Calvinism in later life and turn
I'd to Eplscopalianism, but seldom at
tended service, less than six weeks be-
fore his death, he wrote thus to a
friend in response to n question as to
his religious beliefs:
You desire to know something OF my
religion. 1t is the first time l have
been questioned upon it, but l cannot
take your curiosity amiss and shall
endeavor in a few words to crafty it.
Here is my creed. | believe in one
God, the Creator of the Universe. That
ne governs it by his Providence. That
he ought to be worshipped. The most
acceptable service we render to him is
Ioing good to his other children. The
Ioul of man is immortal and will be
treated with justice in another life re-
Ipecting his conduct in this. These l
lake to be the fundamental points in
L. sound religion, and l regard them,
rs you do, in whatever sect 1 meet
hem.
AS to Jesus of Nazareth, my opinion
If whom you particularly desire, l
think his system of morals and his re-
ligion, as he left them to US, the best
The world ever saw, or is like to see;
but l apprehend it has received various
corrupting changes, and l have, with
most of the present Dissenters in Eng
land, some doubts as to his divinity;
though it is a question l do not dog
matize upon, having never studied it,
and think 1t needless to busy myself
with it now, when l expect soon an
opportunity Of knowing the truth with
less trouble. l see no harm, however,
in it's being believed, if that belief has
the good consequence, as probably it
has, of making his doctrines more re-
spected and more observed; especially
as l do not perceive that the Supreme
takes 1t amiss, by distinguishing the
unbelievers in his government of the
world with any peculiar mark of dis
pleasure.
| shall only add, respecting myself
that, having experienced the goodness
of that Being in conducting me pros
perously through long life, l have nc
doubt of its continuance in the next
though without the smallest conceit OF
meriting such goodness.
