The Ohio River Railroad
Changes Ownership
Goes NominaIly TO The
Baltimore 81 Ohio.

PARKERsBuRe, July 1O.--The
ontrollying interest of the o. r.
Railroad has been sold, the buy
81 being the e. g. o., though the
general control of the property
win be with the Pennsylvania.
The Pennsylvania being now the
practical owner of the b. & o., any
property coming into the possess
ion Of the latter naturally falls un-
aer the directing control of the
El6rmer.
Negotiations have been going on
FOR some time looking to this sale,
bout ten days ago the stock
was taken up by the buyers.
The purchase includes the West
Virginia Short Line, the Ripley &
Mill Creek Valley, the Ravens
wood, Spencer & Glenville and the
KenoYa extension, as we'll as any
other holdings of the o. r. r.
proper. The price paid for the
stock is not given, but it was in
the neighborhood of $50 share.
For two or three years, especi-
ally since the beginning of the
Short Line, there have been re-
peated efforts on the part of the b.
& o. te buy the o. r. r but the
efforts were unavailing, as it was
not contemplated by the owners
that the b & o. as an independent
organization should possess the
property. When, however, tho b.
& o passed into the hands of the
Pa, and the two roads became as
one the objections Heretofore ex-
isting we're no longer and obstacle.
While the B. e o. is the nominal
purchaser the road will be under
the ownership of the Pa. This re-
suit comes from the apportionment
of territory among the railroads in
the combine, w. Va. being appor-
toned the B. & o.
1t is net thought that the new
deal will have any effect on the adj
ministration of the affairs of the
o. r. r. nor that there will be any
changes in the official roster of the
road.
Among all the buying and sell
r l.
ing on in this country for long
time there never was one conducted
with SO much secrecy as this. No
one except the interested parties
suspected that such negotiations
were in progress, and the matter
was closed up and the transfers all
made ere the general public had an
inkling of what was going on.

KEYSTONE, July 9.-Sunday
night people living in the west end
of this town were awakened by
blood ourdling Screams that rent
the air and mado the night hideous
No ono could possibly sleep and
search was instituted to find the
cause. The cries and moans grad
ually grew fainter, but ere they
ceased they were discovered to be
in the house of Sylvester Green.
The building was entered and
stretched at full length upon the
floor the heart-rendering sight of
Mrs. Green bleeding profusely
from terrible gashes across her
breast. a few feet away was the
ghastly form of her little babe
beaten into pulp by stone.
Inter mingled with groans the
gasping woman told her story of
how in the dead of the night her
drunken husband awakened her by
savagely pounding on the door
with rock. When he entered
and demanded money with which
to gamble, she refused it, and bru-
tally he began beating the babe in
her arms with the stone. Scream
ing and fighting for her own and
her child's safety, he drew knife
and did the rest He then fled to
the mountains.

-Four years ago village youth
and his sweetheart visiting a
Michigan town noticed furniture
dealers advertisement offering a
drawing room suit to any couple
that consented to be married pub
licly in his shop. They secured
the suite. Going on their wedding
trip to an Ohio town they noticed
a similar advertisement there and
repeated the performance. Then
the idea struck the husband that
he might arrange these matters
himself, and in two weeks he had
persuaded six dealers in various
towns to emulate the others.
Nominally the couple won specifi-
ed prize at each place, but they
really received a cash considera-
ton arranged beforehand. So it
has gone on ever since. The
couple now claims to have been
married about 500 times.
