The n. Y. world Thrice a,Wssk Edition.

Time has demonstrated that the
Thrice.a-week World, the most wide
ly read newspaper in America, stands
alone in its class. Other papers have
initiated its form but not its success.
This is because it tells all the news all
the time and tells it impartially,
whether that news be political or
otherwise. Its in fact almost daily
at the price of weekly and you can
not afford to be without it.
Republican and democrat alike can
read the Thrice-a-Week World with
absolute confidence in its truth.

DR.. sWARTz TALKS COAL Oil.
Imparting Useful knowledge upon that
subject TO teachers.

DR.. S. E. Swartz, returned Friday
night from New Martinsyille where
he and Prof. o. S. Fleming held an
institute for teachers.
I'm one of his talks Prof. Swartz
took up the subject OF Coal on says
the Wetzel Republican. This was not
one OF the subjects in the program for
the institute, but Prof Swartz stated
that he thought it would be OF inter
est to the teachers OF Wetzel county
Judging from the number Of oil der
ricks he saw along the Short Line r.
r. while on his way to this place.
"Prof. Swartz is a chemist of unusal
ability and made the subject quite in
teresting by giving some OF the useful
material made from oil and also gave
an elaborate descriptionof the method
Of refining. etc. The three theories
OF the origin or formation Of oil were
given and the last which sounds the
most practical made the people Of
Wetzel feel jubilant as 1t holds out the
idea that oil and gas is being formed
constantly and therefore we need have
10 uneasiness that we win ever return
to coal as fuel.
A resolution was unanimously
adopted instructing the county super
lntendent TO use all his powers to Sc
cure Or. Swartz and Prof. Fleming as
instructors next year.

Enterprise Parties are Suspected
of Killing the Child to Hide
their sin, and Concealed it
in the cellar.
Nellie Jackson SaidtO be Mother
ofthe Dead Infant and coroner's
Jury Accuses her Of Killing it.
Young man seriously Inn
pIicated.

A dead baby's body was found in
the cellar Of a house occupied by Lewis
Jackson at Enterprise last Saturday
morning at 1920 O'Clock. The house
lisa double one and one end is occupied
by G. NJ. Garner. The latter COM
planned to the assistant superintend-
emf OF the mines there Of very bad
tdar, hich had existed aC the house
Tor 1 week ..ud asked that the >twer
pipe be examined. II. w. Kinsey, a
plumber, was sent to make the ex-
animation and found the dead body Of
child under the portion occupied by
Jackson.
An inquisition was ordered by Squire
J.W. Sanders and G. w. Martin, j..
L. Heldreth, w. E. Tetrick, j. J..
Sturm, A. 5. Parish and James Laulis
were empanelled as a jury.
The taking of evidence began Satur-
day afternoon and was concluded sun,
day. The jury brought in a verdict
10 the effect that the child had come
to its DEATH criminally and unlawfully
at the hands of Nellie Jackson, aged
about l6 years, daughter Of Lewis
Jackson.
Kinsey told of his going under the
houses and finding the child partially
covered with dirt. He gave the alarm
and the child was exhumed.
Lewis Jackson testified that his
daughter, Nellie, had told him that
ULYSSES Armour had entered her room
during her parents absence, thrown
her upon the bed and outraged her,
that he threatened to shoot her il she
ever told it. Mr.. Lewis further stated
that the girl told him about giving
the newly born child to Armour on the
front porch about July II,
DIR. T. L. Nutter examined the body
and said it seemed to have been natur'
ally born and was fully developed.
Part Of the skull was missing and he
thought that was caused by rats hav-
ing eaten it away. He said it was a
female child.
Mrs. Lewis said Nellie told her that
Armour said give it to him and the
facts would never be known. She said
the girl told her July 18th or 10th that
the child was born dead.
Mrs. E, NJ. Garner had heard the
girl crying and talking to her mother
the last OF April or the first Of May
about the disgrace and often heard
Mrs. Lewis reproving her daughter
! about Armour. She had also no. iced
physical changes in the girl.
The child when found by Kinsey
was naked except that small cloth
had been thrown over 1t.
Armour had been braking on the
Monon division trains and boarded at
Gamers part Of the time. At pres.
emit he is driver at the mines.
Miss Jackson and Armour were ar
rested Monday night and placed under
bond of $500 and $3.50 respectively to
answer indictments.

Construction Of Factotes

The construction Of factories, store
and Office buildings, involve a great
many different considerations. Some
of them depend upon the nature OF
the ground on which the building is
to be erected; some upon the amount
to be expended; and others upon the
purpose for which it is to be used. All
require careful thought, and thor
ough knowledge of the various build
ing materials; an accurate understand.
ing Of the different methods Of con
struction: and precise knowledge Of
the cost of both.
Not the least important point is the
character and plan Of the building as
a whole. In It's external appearance
IL should appear to be what it really
is. II an office building, 1t should not
look like factory; il church il
should not look like a theatre, Its
external appearance should avoid both
over.elaboration, and unique plain
ness.
Within 1t should make the most Of
its opportunities, wasting no floor
space whatever. The stairways and
elevators, the windows and light-wells,
the heating, plumbing, and yentilat-
ing apparatus all require thoughtful
planning, that the maximum Of utili-
ty may be obtained at the minimum OF
expense.
Our services are at the disposal Of
intending builders. Sketches and es-
Inmates aie cheerfully rendered.

be stopped. The two engines came to-
gether in the middle Of the bridge, the
bridge cOlapsing. and both engines
fell into the river. The two trains
caught fire after the engines went into
the river, and burned up the bridge as
well as the cars.

The local freight was to have side
tracked at Wymark to let the other
fire light pass, but the conductor made a
mistake in reading his orders.
