AN EMBARRASSING ERROR.
Awkward Mistake Made by the Man
Who Envied His Friends
Good Luck.

Cleveland man made a sad mis-.
take the other day, and it taught him
a lesson that he will long remember.
He was in Detroit and went down to
the railway station to take the train
for Cleveland in company with q
friend-also Cleveland man. The
man who made the mistake called the
attention of his friend to the fact that
comic opera troupe was going by
the same train, says the Cleveland
Plain Dealer.
There are lot of pretty girls in
the company" he said.
"All right laughed the friend. "I'l
stroll through the train and have q
look at them"
The friend entered the chair car
and the man who made the mistake
strolled forward into the smoker. He
stayed there for some little time and
then thought he'd go back and look
up his friend. He found him Present
ly. He was seated beside handsome
ly-dressed lady of attractive appear
ance, and the pair were engaged in
an animated conversation.
The man who made the mistake
was a good deal astonished. He
paused in the aisle and extended his
hand.
"Well," he said, 81 may not see YOU
when we reach Cleveland-so good
by"
"Good-by," said the friend.
"You seem to be booked for o
pleasant Journey" said the man who
made the mistake, and he slyly
smiled.
"Oh, yes" said the friend.
The man who made the mistake felt
a little nettled. His friend might at
least have introduced him to the lady.
So he reached over as he turned to re-
tire, and, patting the friend on the
shoulder said: "Well, you are lucky
dog!"
He noticed that the friend frowned
and the lady looked surprised. Then
he hurried up the aisle with a broad
smile on his face.
A day or two later he met the friend
on the street.
Say" the friend remarked, 81 sup.
pose you thought that lady who hap
pened to be on the Detroit train with
us was member of the comic opera
troupe to which you called my atten-
tion?"
"Why, yes-wasn't she?"
Thunder, no! She's my next-door
neighbor and my wife's most intimate
acquaintance"
The jaw of the man who made the
mistake suddenly dropped.
"Holy smoke!" he murmured; what
did she think of me?"
"Well," said the friend, 81 explained
it to her, and she thought it was
quite too good joke to keep.
think so, too"
And this accounts for the fact that
the story is in circulation.

Office holders are getting their "bumps' in grand style. The other day we heard man say that Judge Cowen would soon occupy the mayor $ chair. The answer came back, He Il sit in an electric chair first" But we're happy to note the judge has fooled both of them; he probably will occupy a chair far more easy. But did you read about the doings of the aldermen the other night! They cut the Hamilton park appropriation just in two, which virtually leaves the amount hardly large enough to pay the overseer of the work. That Is. not all they did; they refused to improve upper Baldwin street: they also re- fused to open a street between Bank and South Main street, which is an absolute necessity.

John S. Barlow and Hood Philips,
prominent young Democrats, have pur-
chased the Grafton Leader, the Dem
ocratic organ of Taylor county, this
State.
The State of West Virginia has col
lected this year from licenses on liquor
saloons, hotels, ETC., $250,650.60. Of
this amount Jefferson county sent in
$4,59719.
George Mccoy, the talented young
lawyer from Sistersville who was a
Democratic candidate for Attorney
General of West Virginia last year,
died of consumption few days ago.
A fire at Hinton at an early hour
Tuesday morning caused loss estimated
at from $4,000 to $4,000. The prop
erty destroyed included several resi-
dences, twelve law Offices, two large
furniture stores and one grocery.
While Mrs. c. Hays was feeding
her chickens at Parkersburg a few
days ago a game rooster attacked her
viciously. She defended herself the
best she could, and fierce battle be.
tween the woman and the rooster en-
sued. The rooster sank his spur an
inch into her knee. Blood poisoning
set in and her physician says it may
be necessary to amputate the limb.
Governor White has granted re-
spite of 90 days to Lud Madison, who
was to have been hanged last Monday
for murder. The respite is to allow
Madison to appeal his case to the Uni
ted States SupremeCourt on the ground
that he is already legally dead and
that there is no law by which dead
man may be hanged. Two years ago
Madison was sentenced to be hanged,
and by an error Of the clerk the rec
ords of the court in which he was con-
victed show that he was executed in
stead of showing a stay of execution
and an appeal. He claims that under
the law he is now dead and will
contend that he cannot be hanged
twice for the same offense.
Bellew Summerton, a youth 10
years old, met with a fatal accident
few days ago is Roane county, while
experimenting with flying machine.
Bellew has always been an expert
kite flyer. So well could he fly kites
that all the boys in that section were
envious. A few weeks ago he began
work on flying machine, onein which
he thought he could make airy flights.
He perfected it Wednesday night and
early Thursday morning climbed into
a large oak tree and prepared himself
for flight. Getting far out on a pro-
jecting limb he made leap into the
air to give the machine a start. He
fell to the ground and was picked up
unconscious. Besides bruises all over
his body both arms are broken and
internal injuries will cause his death.
