In the State Supreme Court OF APP
peals yesterday morning. Col. ". w.
Arnett made the closing argument in
the case Of State VS.. John Mooney and
Frank Friday. In his opening remarks
he quoted Carlyle Harris as saying that
more people fill felons graves through
poverty than from any other cause. it
was because Of tic poverty of his clients
that no record of the case. was before
the Supreme Court.
Continuing, Col. Arnett said 1t was
known that three persons would testify
in the trial that Mooney and Friday
were not in Elm Grove on the afternoon
of the day Of the murder; and these
persons were arrested, placed in Jail,
and brought from jail to the witness
stand. These were circumstances which
placed them in an unfavorable light, and
impeached them before the jury. They
were arrested without reason, he de-
clared, and thrown into jail.
Col. Arnett said an officer of the court
said to the men. I'll you swear that
they were not there l will have you ar
rested" He said the defense was de-
MED the time to get in new evidence.
Prosecuting Attorney Nesbitt inter-
rupted Col. Arnett, who asked If the
record showed that. An interesting col
loquy ensued, which did not settle the
point.
Col. Arnett said the fact that one OF
the defendants has a criminal record is
his misfortune, placing him in a posi-

doses when he does not deserve any Be-
cause a man sinned in former years,
courts are too prone to adjudge him
guilty of any crime alleged against him.
Col. Arnett said it was time to abolish
the Supreme Court if the implied con-
tention that the lower court does not
make errors be accepted. He said the
trial court could not know of the in
timidation of witnesses which the ap-
p~ellants charge. AS to the officers who
was guilty of an infractfon of the rules,
he thought any court in the world would
set aside a verdict given under such
circumstances.
Col. Arnett said the gentlemen on the
other side referred to two statutes which
do not affect the case at all. He insisted
that the prisoners were entitled to pre-
liminary examination. All the provis-
ions OF the law compel the conclusion
that the preliminary hearing must be
given when it is demanded. Col. Ar
nett next took up the point of Mr..
Towards invitation to Mooney to wear
the handkerchief mask He spoke about
~three-quarters of an hour.
In the case of Howard Thompson VS..
Carrie I. Brown, the cour, was informed
that a dismissal had been agreed upon
by the parties.
Monday the docket for the Eighth Ju-
dicial Circuit, Judge Doolittle, compris-
ing the counties of Cabell, Wayne, Lin
coin, Logan and Mingo, will be taken
up. There is but one case on the

THE GROUND QUESTION
Is Not Yet Settled, but Will Proba-
hJ~- no Tn-NIorro


1t is a remarkable fact that a communi-
ty of the size of Wheeling will show such
a lack Of appreciation of the ~cleanest of
all professional sports, as to not only not
assist in providing a base ball park, but
actually to embarrass the promoters in
their efforts. 1t is a distinctively Ameri-
can sport, and a big advertisement for
the city. If the people allow Wheeling to
surrender the Western Association fran
ehise because of having no place to play
the game, Wheeling deserves no more
professional base ball.
Wheeling Is to-day without a ball park,
largely because of the senseless opposition
of some Island people. Unless the ground
question is settled within a, few days,
something will drop. AS it is the games
scheduled for to-day and the early part of
the week have been transferred to Toledo.

Corinthians Is, l3-"The Greatest of
These Is Charity" In part the pastor
said: 1.-The principles fer which you
stand freedom, friendship and charity
are great principles, but the greatest
of these is the last. 1t is greater than
eloaunce, or martyrdom or prophecy,
or the understanding of the mysteries,
| or the knowledge Of all things, or aims
| giving. These things are all good and
| important, but greater than any Of
| them is that lore for which the world
seeks and which it SO a-uch needs.
Love is crown in which CLEANS seven
jewels.
Forgiveness is first. How many
hearts are estranged in this old world
How much there Ia Of hatred and ieal-
ousy aud unforpiveness: but the finest
gem in loves crown is the gem of for.
| giveness.' The second Is humility II
vaunteth not itself, is not pulled up.
The third is patience; it endureth al
things. The fourth is benevolence, ano
the fifth tenderness, the sixth un
envionsness, and the seventh sympathy.
"The brightest gem 10 the bosom o.
humanity ia the gem of human sym
pathy, and the brightest jewel In love'i
shining crown is the jewel Of love
This, my friends, is that Of which thu
world stands most In need, and let m,
congratulate you that in the threefolt
pripciples Of your order love is tn,
best. Remember the great love of God
Remember the great love of Christ
and in the spirit Of that love which
there set before you go forward in you

and cultivating that love of spirit O
which / have been speaking"

duces a condition of suffering for
wrongdoing that will continue until the
change for the better comes.
