BROTHER AND SISTER
Married in Morgantown on Satur-
day Afternoon.
They Remained at the Home OF Their
Mother ON Saturday Night and Left
Tor Preston County on Sunday-Sweet
Scented Arrangement That will Kick
up n Smell In Preston.

from the Morgantown Dominion.
Major Minor S. Field is nothing
1t not original. He is also not great
shucks unless he is raising cain of
some brand or other. His latest
escapade has just come to light. 1t
will IN all probability result in his
being sequestered in the State In
stitution for incurable statute break
ers at Moundsyille.
He came here on Saturday and
obtained a license to wed his half
sister, Miss Martha Watts. The Ii
cense reads to Minor s. Field, "a,
of Preston county, son of David
Field, and Miss Martha Watts,
daughter of Barney Watts. They
were married on Saturday afternoon
when they went to the home of their
mother, in South Morgantown.
She is the wife of Barney Watts,
ana knew nothing of the marriage
until told of it by a newspaper man
on Monday. She says that they are
both her children. Field was adopt
ed by David Field when he was
small, but both he and the woman
in the case know that they have the
same mother.
1t will be remembered that a few
months ago Field had his wife and
her father arrested IN Morgantown
when they were on their way into
Pennsylvania. After holding the
couple here for day or so, it was
found that Field himself should
have been arrested, as the old man
had been treated rotten by the
young man.
What has caused him to make the
latest break is not known. However,
the couple have been living together
for several weeks, and then conclu-
ded to continue the arrangement
for life with benefit of clergy. The
result will be what both amply
merit.

The Parkersburg Sentinel of Mon
day contains the following interest
ing item -
Miss Lulu Lynch, the I8.year old
girl who shot and killed her sister
in-law, Mrs. John lynch, while
carelessly handling a revolver at
Newburg last Wednesday, was in
the city for a short time Yesterday
morning. She arrived here on the
Grafton accommodation and left
soon after for Ohio. She was un-
accompanied and it is said that she
was on her way to Ohio to escape
arrest. AS yet no warrant was
sworn out for her arrest, and as the
shooting is thought to have been
accidental, it is not likely that one
will be issued, but Miss Lynch
fears that she will find herself in
the clutches of the law, and has
taken this means to avoid it. Her
destination is unknown.

WILD AND MOOLLY
Are The Republican Papers just Now
Over The Low Price OF Wool.


We recently called on the Repub-
lican papers for wool quotations
and some explanations on the sub
ject. The Preston Republican
comes back at us with a lot of old
EAST years birds nests" to use one
of its own expressions) about the
low price of wool under the Cleve-
land administration and makes the
statement that it was down to II
cents per pound and was selling
now at IS cents. This we positively
deny and boldly state that wool was
never any lower under Cleveland
than ii is now and we dare the
Republican to prove to the contrary.
We call upon it in fact TO give us
the figures from reliable authority
and give the authority, when wool
sold in Preston county for IL cents
per pound. We also want the names
of the wool buyers who are now
paying rs cents in cash for wool,
not particularly for publication,
but for the benefit of our farmer
friends who are anxious TO sell.
The Republican gives away a big
snap when it says that one reason
for the low price this year is the
fact that there are two seasons clip
of wool on hand now, last year and
this year. This is true, for last
year the Republican administration
and papers and politicians generally,
did everything in their power to
keep wool up on account of the
campaign, and they got wool buy
ers to pay "a and IS cents per
pound for it and most of them have
that wool on hand yet, including
several merchants in Preston county
that we could name, and they will
hold it some time before they get
their money out of it. We would
like to ask them if they can't
answer the question of the Grafton
Sentinel about "who got the wool
pulled over their eyes ?"
1t is a good joke on these fellows,
but it was big help to Mark Hanna
and Repubhcanism generally, and
the shouters and whoopers up
bleated like sheep at the Democrats
and threw it up to us at every
opportunity and now our turn has
come and we propose to have an
inning on this wool business ami
poke some fun at the Republicans
even if it does make them squirm
and squeal. The Grafton Sentinel
also rushes into the fray and de-
Clares that the farmers in Preston
county are receiving is and 70
cents for their wool. Will some
one give us the names of buyers
who are paying these prices In good
hard cash ? What we want now is
names, facts and figures and no
cold last years bird nests" about
"soup-houses, Cleveland panic and
II cent wool" We dare the Repub-
lican or Sentinel either to find any
one who will prove by the records
that wool was only selling at II
cents per pound in Preston OF Tay-
Tor county, during Cleveland's ad-
ministration. This kind of lying
has got TO stop. Ever since the
last Democratic administration the
Republican papers have been get
ting wool down lower and lower,
during that time, as we get further
away and people less liable to re-
member just what the figures were,
and now we want the records and
this matter settled once for all.

The above article from the Daily

that he is in far more trouble this
time than his other marriage last
year, to Miss Cora Johnson, of
Pittsburg, which was full of trouble
from start to finish, winding up
with divorce at the December
term of Circuit Court. The Watts
girl, who is said to be his half sis
ter, has been working here at the
jenkins Hotel and other places, and
the Major claiming her all the time
as his sister; but it seems now, that
he was counting her and has really
married her.
They are both illegitimate chill
dren by the same m other and have
clearly violated the law. The pen
atty is six months in Jail and $500
fine, and it is said there is a war
rant out for them at Morgantown.
