Kindness Killed Him.

Some two weeks since the Humane
Society took Timmons' '.hossn from
from him on the charge OF starving
and maltreating the brute says the
Grafton Leader. 1t was put in DR.
Leeds care and was doing nicely and
could get up with little assistance.
L. e. Ward contributed a considerable
bunch Of hay the latter part of last
week, and the whole being placed at
the convenience of the animal proved
too much for his weakened condition,
for after 20 hours Of ceaseless storing
away OF the wholesome diet, poor Bob
was takeu with an attack of acute in
digestion from which he never rallied
and ON Monday, the 4th council
of the leading members Of the society
declared that death by shooting was
the next step in order, which being
adopted ended the career OF Georges
"hoss." Some Of Timmons' neigh
bors suggested that an examination Of
TimmOns' household would reveal a
hear t-rending story.

Members, Who Are Not Reported ms

Some Witnesses Examined.

Cincinnati. Feb. Arguments and
testimony were heard before Judge
Hollister, of the common pleas court,
on an application for an injunction
against the Jeffries- Rubin prizefight
In this city, Feb. -.
There was first an attempt by the
defense to dismiss all members of the
Saengerfest board who are not mem
bers OF the athletic association. There
are II of the 81 included In this list.
Attorney General Sheets, who repre-
sents Governor Nash aud the state,
protested, and asked for temporary
injunction against the IL, who have
cided that an injunction later could
go out to these IL. After considerable
sparring among the attorneys 1t was
then decided that the case would
proceed on its merits for a permanent
injunction, rather than for a tempo
rary restraining order. but the de-
Tense reserved the right to appeal to
higher courts.
Judging from the slow progress
made Tuesday and the long list of
witnesses. 1t lis believed now that
the hearing will not be completed

Go on to Kingwood.

Contract Let for a Largn Trestle-I I'm
mense Amount Of Timber to be Used.
Expected to Reach Kingwood by next
Fall The Road is Now About Half
Way.
Mr. j. Ami Martin, one of the Of
ficials of the Morgantown d King
wood railroad company stated this
morning in response to question
that that road will be extended to
Kingwood during the coming Sum
mer provided the present plans are
carried out. 1t is now about hall
way between the two towns but it is
the intention to take it right through
to the capital Of the Buckwheat belt
during the coming months of Sum
mer.
The contract for the big trestle
over Coon Hollow will shortly be let.
The railroad company owns large
body of timber right at the trestle
and they have let the contract for
the getting out of the timber which
is to be used.
E. Burns is to do the logging and
f. II. Long, Of Morgantown, is to do
the saving. 1t is estimated that
|250,000 feet of timber is to be used.
This trestle is to be oyer 400 feet
long and in one place is over so feet
high. 1t will be one Of the longest
and highest on the road.
1t is located at the present termi
nus of the road and there is a ques-
ton as to the location of the county
line. Mr.. Martin states that the
road is to not only to cross the hollow
but it is to push on to Kingwood.
From that point on is matter Of
conjecture but he says that they
don't want to use the Tunnelton
route if it can be helped They have
plan on foot now but do not want
t0 give it out until it is ready to be
put into operation.
II The length of the road from its
present terminus to Kingwood will
be Ii miles.

LEGISLATIVE GOSSIP.
Some of the Things of Interest
at Charleston.

Evident that Ripper Bills are to be
Pushed Said to be Strong Oppose
ton to them-Mr. Sturgiss will Have
to go- Committee Pleased with Nor
gantawn.
The bills for the reorganization of
the boards of control of the various
State institutions were introduced in
both houses yesterday. Mr.. Scherr
presenting them in the House and
Senator Koran in the Senate says the
Charleston Gazette. They are about
what The Gazette has said all along
they would be. The University board
is to consist Of nine members, not
more than six OF whom shall be OF
the same political party. They are to
be appointed by March 18th, or as
soon thereafter as may be convenient,
and to take their seats June lst. The
Normal School board is to consist of
the State Superintendent and six 9th
ers; the Colored Institute board, of
the uperintendent ana five others;
the Bluetield Normal Of the superin-
tendent and five others; the State
Board of Health, OF two physicians
from each Of. the five Congressional
districts; the Board of Agriculture, of
seven members: the two insane asylum
boards, of nine members each; the
reformatory board. of seven members;
the Home for Incurables, of seven
members. All these are to be reap
pointed, and the terms are to begin
not later in any case than by the first
Of June, and the proportion of them
that may belong to one political party
is in no case less than two thirds.
In the House the rules were sus-
pended, reference to committees was
dispensed with and the bills read a
first time and ordered TO a second
reading, showing the fact chat they
have already been decided upon by the
caucus, and that all the Legislature
has to do is to pass them.
II anybody has doubted that Gov
erner-elect White is IN the saddle and
means to ride down all opposition, let
his mind be at once freed from such
unworthy misgivings. Governor White
will pass into history as the most
dictatorial, the most exacting, the
most arrogant Chief Executive West
Virginia has had up to the time Of
his induction into and deduction out
of office. This is a prediction.
Among other things sounded by
these reorganization measures is the
death knell Of the regency OF Hon.
George G. Sturgiss.
