HUNTINGTON, w. Va, October 30
Word reached here this morning from
a timber camp at Baileysville, in wy
oming county, to the effect that Charley
Waits, a prominent young man of Cat
letsburg, son of Coon Waits, the travel
ing man, and who is prominently
known in Huntington, had been prob
ably fatally stabbed yesterday by a
man named Sweeney, who was la
borer in the timber camp. No particu-
lars could be secured, owing to the
isolated locality, but physicians were
asked to be sent from Catlettsburg.
The telegram also stated that Sweeney
had escaped and would likely come in
this direction and for officers to be on
the lookout for him. Waits has been
a time-keeper for the Cole-Crane Lum-
her Company at that point. Young
Waits mother in Catlettsburg left at
once for the scene of the tragedy.

OPEN AIR CURE FOR CONSUMPTION.

1t is asserted by competent authoit-

tendency to contract 1t is. This tend.
ency may be fought off simply with
proper food and pure air.
The New York World publishes some
remarkable results of the open
air treatment in Germany. In the
Black Forest POS cases out of $40 were
cured; in Saxony, 60 out of SO; in Han
