A KENTUCKY FEUD.

Mrs. Baker Declares She Win Teach Her
Sons to XIII White or n Howard
Barboursville, KY, June 14.-The.
troops with Jim and Wiley Baker ar
rived here from Manchester, delivering
the prisoners to the county jailer and
going into camp in the courthouse.
Mrs. Baker says she will train her
eleved sons that the height of their
ambition will be to kill White or a
Howard. Jim and Wiley are quiet and
refuse to talk. Many persons advocate
withdrawing the troops, allowing the
men to fight it out, saying this action
on the part of Governor Knott stopped
the Rowan county feud and the Pulaski
county feud. The killing Of Tom
Baker will doubtless increase the Clay
county feud.
Notwithstanding the captivity of his
three brothers and son, there are uu-
murous friends of the dead leader left
and scores of their people who have
heretofore not expressed themselves,
and they now declare the killing of
Tom Baker an outrage and say the
Bakers should shoulder their rifles and
never surrender alive.

BellAmy storer Received by tho Spanish
Queen Regent.
Madrid, June 1s.-The newely ap.
pointed minister to Spain, Mr.. Bellamy
Storer, was received in formal audi
ence by the queen regent Friday. There
were no speeches; only few cordial
phrases were exchanged.
Two state carriages from the royal
stables conveyed Mr.. Storer from the
Hotel de Rome to the palace and took
him back TO the hotel after the audi
ence. Premier Silvela presented Mr..
Storer to her majesty.
There were no crowds about the
palace, Mr.. Storer's reception being
unannounced in order to avoid disa-
agreeable incidents. The fact that
there were no speeches is not surpris-
ing, us this is the practice when min
listers are received. Speeches are only
made in the case of ambassadors.
Nevertheless, the queen regent was
very amiable and complimentary to-
wards Mr.. Storcr, and inquired cordi-
ally concerning the health of President
Mckinley.

DEDICATION.
Formal Services to be Held at Shady
Side M. E. Church.

The new church edifce erected by the
Methodist Episcopal congregation at
the residence villa known as Shady
Side, two miles below Bellaire, will be
dedicated to-day. rhe church is q
handsome frame structure, of plain but
substantial architecture, and is nicely
finished with steel ceiling, comfortable
pews, pulpit and choir box. The con-

frayed portion of the cost amounts to
but $500, and there is little doubt but
this will be subscribed to-day. Rev.
j. F. Rankin, the pastor, who has been
untiring in his efforts to rear the new
place Of worship, deserves much credit
for his zeal and effective work, as we'll
as the individual members of the con-
gregation, who have lent time, labor,
money and material to this end.
The dedicatory sermon will be
preached by Presiding Elder DR.. D. C.
Osborne, of the GAINESVILLE district, to-
day at 10 o'clock, and in the afternoon
other services will be held. Last even
ing the congregation listened to very
excellent sermon by Rev. ]. w. Powell,
of GAINESVILLE, which was preliminary
to the dedication to-day. The program
for this morning and afternoon is
given below. 1t may here be stated
that the church has been removed from
Wegee to it's present location.

FATALLY INJURED.
An Accident at BenWood Junction
Yesterday Morning.
MESSIAH CADY, AN AGED B. & O.
EMPLOYE, THE VICTIM-RUN
OVER BY AN ENGINE WHILE
AT WORK-HEAD CRUSHED AND
LEFT LIMB TAKEN OFF.

Yesterday morning about s: 80 o'clock
a fatal accident occurred at the Balti-
more & Ohio Railroad yards at Ben
siah Cady, track sweeper, and one OF
the Oldest employees of the company
At the time Mr.. Cady was standing
on one of the many tracks in the yard,
engaged in his usual work, when he
was struck by engine No. five hundred
and ninety-one, which was backing out
of the round house on its way to the
water pump, in charge of one of the
hostlers. The aged workman was
caught under the wheels and dragged
some distance before the engine could
be brought to a standstill. AS a result
he was frightfully injured, his head
being crushed, his lett foot cut off and
his chest badly bruised. He was at
once picked up by employees who We're
near and carried to the home of his son,
John Cady, the Junction store keeper,
where he was attended by DR.. Dowler,
of McMechen. In spite of the fact that
everything possible was done to allie
viate his suffering he passed away about
an hour after the mishap.
The deceased was seventy years of
age and was among the first employees
OF the B. & O. Company He was quite
an efficient workman, and was highly
esteemed by all who knew him. He
came to Benwood about eight years
ago from Martinsburg, where he helped
to build the road. He was residing
with his son, John, at the time of his
death. Two sons and daughter, all
of whom are married, survive to mourn
the loss. The arrangements for the
funeral will probably be made to-day.
