FAIRMONT ELOPEMENT.
Society People in the up River
Town Stirred up.

BIZ a Sensational AFFAIR In that city

~ of an interesting elenment Is be
ing told in Fairmont The parties
to the affair are prominent people.
The groom halls from Glarkshurg
and the BRIDE belongs to one OF the
most prominent families OF this city.
Another Fairmonter expected to act
in the role OF groom but fondness
of sweet spirits de vino prevented the
contamination OF his desires and BY
transferring his worship to Bacchus
he was given the icy nit BY Cupid
who felt aggrieved.
Pres Mckinney was to have led
Miss Sue Hongh To the altar one
night last week. On the evening of
the marriage he began to celebrate
in a hilarious fashion the event
which be expected TO occur. The
bride heard of his actions and was
very much disgruntled over it.
She took counsel OF no one but her
own heart and promptly accepted
the offer Of a Clarksburg swain to
! fly with him where booze does not
break in 70 steal away the brains.
Consequently they flew and left the
would be groom to his cups.
The present whereabouts Of the
young couple are unknown and all
efforts to locate them have proven
futile.
Mckinney was not only given the
go by By the young lady but he was
treated to first class humping by
her brother who became enraged at
a sighting remark made by Mckin
ney on Saturday hight.
The brother Tell on the femarker
and after punching his head left him
alone with his reflections. 1t is
thought that the young fellow will
recover but he is in bad shape. The
affair has created quite stir in the
/ up river town but the sentiment is
that the young woman did right in
not linking herself to a man who had
such poor idea of the relation into
which he expected TO enter with her.

Body Else at Buffalo Show He is
Much Taken with the Exposition
West Yirginian's Last Opportunity.
Dr. A. D. Hopkins of the Fxperi-
ment Station has been at Buffalo for
some time arranging and getting his
exhibits ready for the opening.
When his la5ors were finished and
the exhibits installed he found that
he was the very first one to have
complete exhibit installed. The
rest of the show was still to be
placed In position.
The exhibits collected by him are
IN two places. One of them is in
the government exhibit and consists
of the collections made by him
while in the Northwest and in
Maine acting under the department
of Agriculture. These are labelled
as having been prepared by DR..
Hopkins Entomologist of the West
Virginia Experiment Station.
Another one is the one on which
the DIR. took gold medal at Chica
go. Each of these exhibits are we'll
worth examination and the Morgan
town people who take in the big
show should hunt them up.
DR.. Hopkins spoke very modestly
about his share in the work but
those who know him know how val
liable and interesting it is is without
further comment.
He stated in reply to questions
that the Exposition was il very
unfinished condition but that it was
worth visit now The electrical
work is completed and this feature
of the show is worth the trip. There
are thousands and thousands Of
lights. Every building is covered
with them and when they are turned
on the effect is most beautiful
The power for these lights is OBJ
tanned from Niagara Falls as is all
the electrical power used IN the city.
The buildings are eorgeously col
lored, every color being used that
would add to the beauty of the
scene. When these are lighted up
with the innumerahle lights it pre-
sents scene of beauty never to be
forgotten.
Morgantown people are urged to
take the trip this summer and see
for themselves what is there. The
exhibits are on par with those of
Chicago. They are of course brought
up to date The Exposition itself
is the biggest thing that has ever
taken place in this country with the
exception of the Chicago fair
The Midway is one of the great
things. 1t takes $1175 to see all
the attractions in this. The Expo
sition grounds are laid off so that
the buildings are rather close to-
gether thus enabling one to see it
without walking himself to death.
One matter of regret in connec-
ton with it is that there is no ex,
hibit for this state. People outside
are beginning to be greatly impress
ed with the advancement of the
state and that we should fail to
make proper showing will not re
fleet any credit on us.
DR. Hopkins returned for short
visit and then went to Pittsburg
where he will be for several days.

Deadly Three Leaved Vine.

A certain little city in Illinois has suf-
fered so much from the poison ivy that
its city council has empowered one OF
it's officials to hire a force Of men, whose
special duty IL shall be to rid the COM
munity OF the pest. Ii is said that at one
time there were ovO cases of ivy-poison-
ing I'm the place. IL seems strange that
any community should suffer TO such an
extent from a cause that may be so cas-
lily avoided 1t il, of course, the poison
Gus vines resemblance TO the Virginia
creeper that makes the trouble, and yet
mere glance at IL ought to show the
difference. for the creeper has clusters
OF five leaves, while the ivy has clusters
OF three. Besides. the creeper bears pur-
pie berries, while those of the ivy are
white. The best way 10 get rid OF the
ivy--which grows and runs rapidly, and
is very tenacious OF life--is to pull IL UP
by the roots and burn IL In a field. There
are some people that are not poisoned
by it. and the work should be done by
them; and even they should handle the
plant as little as possible, and avoid In
haling the smoke when they burn IL.
They should wear special clothing for
the work and wash the hands several
times n day In a solution OF sugar OF lead
in a weak grade OF alcohol, say. 80 70 rs
per cent. proof. This solution may also
be used with good effect by those that
have been poisoned by the vine.-Phila-
delphia Record.

Eagle and Rabbit,

While riding up some steep bluffs on the
plains of Colorado near the foothills of
the Rocky mountains. one day a few
years ago, my attention was attracted by
the unusual behavior of a golden eagle
which suddenly pounced down from the
sky and disappeared, says the Youths s
Companion. Almost Immediately II reap
peared, only to sweep downward and van
ism as before.
Spurring my horse TO the top of the
bluff, | saw before me a level tableland
several hundred yards in extent, fianked
upon it's farther side by deep or tortu-
oUs rayne. The tableland was entirely
devoid OF vegetation or cover of any sort;
not so much as chump OF cactus or a
bunch of soapweed relieved the monotony
OF its level.
About fifty yards away toward the ra-
vine lay an object, almost the color OF the
prarie itself, which at first L thought was
a stone, but which on second look dis
covered TO be a jack rabbit. He was
squatting down, his long ears folded back
along his body. motionless. The mystery
of the eagles queer movements was re-
vealed--it intended TO dine on rabbit meat
My horse had hardly come TO a stop
when tho eagle. apparently obvious Of
my presence, swooped fiercely down upon
its prey. The rabbit passively awaited
the onslaught. Straight as a falling shell
the great bird pounced down. 1t was al
most on the rabbit and seemed 10 seize
him, when suddenly the long ears un-
folded and a streak of gray flashed up
ward into the air. 1t was tremen-
dous leap-five feet at the very least--and
so correctly timed that the huge bulk OF
the eagle swept beneath him, and he
dropped back unharmned. The rabbit in
stantly dartcd at full speed toward the
ravne. lie ran twenty-five or thirty
yards before the eagle was able TO turn
and renew his attack.
The rabbit was apparently watching
every move OF his enemy. for at the very
instant the eagle made toward him he
stopped. and squatting down as before,
again awaited the foe.
AS the eagle swept downward for the
second time | saw that it would pass FAR
enough above the rabbit TO seize him
should he attempt to leap forward as be-
fore. But the rabbit instantly divined the
eagles purpose. and this time merely fat
tening himself against the earth. the bird
passed above him; again the rabbit darted
toward the ravine; and again at the prop
er moment, stopped TO await the on
slaught.
Time after time this was repeated. AL
ways with the result that the rabbit kept
unharmed and graually approached the
ravine. At last with one final dash he
sprung over the preclpitous side OF the
ravine and disappeared
The great bird baked OF its prey. hung
disappointed over the ravine for a mo-
ment. and then circled majestically sky-
ward.
The contest had lasted for nearly half
an hour. During that time had tho rabbit
once yielded 20 panic. or had he I'm one in
stance failed 10 forsee the eagles method
OF attack elwould have paid tho penalty
with his life
