HUNTINGTON, June 10.-Colonel j.
NJ. Fuller Of Wayne county, who for a
few months has been temporarily re-
siding in Huntington, was able to re-
turn here this morning from the SEN
atorial convention at WEIGH, Mellow
ell county He was accompanied by
a party of friends and at least forty
local republicans met his train at Ke-
nova Col. Fuller is yet in rather
serious condition. He received tw1
fearful blows across the back of his
head. One cash was nearly four inch
es long the other about two and a
half 1t required about q stitches TO
close the gaping wound. He Is yet
very weak from loss OF blood, but
physicians claim that there is no oc-
casion for his wounds resulting seri-
ously. Col. Fuller was chairman of
the Caldwell forces at the split con-
vention at Welch.
He says that when he mounted the
stand he realized there was going to
be trouble as the Scott followers in
Mcdowell during the morning had
thrown out numerous threats. He
had good gun in each hip pocket
and was nervy enough To have used
them, but he was slipped upon from
behind and struck twice while in the
judges stand.
Col. Fuller has luxuriant growth
of whiskers and he says he remembers
distinctly that Gen. Rucker seized
these and attempted to pull him from
the chairman's stand. He was seuf-
fling with the general when the two
blows were Inflicted from behind by
another party. All was confusion
from then on.

TWO CENTS
SEVERAL PARTIES.
Surveyors are Getting Busy on
Cheat River.

Speculation Rife as to Their Objects
and Employers Members Refuse TO
Talk Feigning Ignorance Maybe
the Wabash and then 1t May be an
Independent Line.
A gentleman who is well informed
says that there are four separate
corps of surveyors at work on tire
Cheat river from Rowlesburg to
Point Marion. They are also work
ing near Parsons on the extension
Northward.
He says that it is generally under
stood that these corps are sent out
by the Wabash and that this road
is trying to get through the valley
ahead of all competitors. However
this is mere speculation.
The members OF the parties will
not say for whom they are working
if they know.
They say that they are making
railroad survey but that il does not
concern them who is having it done
% iouS aS tuSy SC1 phIii AuohIJ tGS
ularly which they are doing.
1t is regarded as certain that
there will be road down the valley
before very long. There are several
reasons why the Wabash should
want to come. These have been Civ.
en- in detail in this paper several
times. The following about one of
the parties is contained in special
to this paper from Morris Cross.
Roads:
A corps of engineers came to
Cheat Haven recently and have since
been engaged IN making surveys
south of that point following the
east side of the river. Some think
that they are figuring on a route to
the Seaboard for the Wabash while
others think they represent the
Greenbrler, Monongahela and Pitts
burg which has recently secured a
charter to build a road from Poca-
hontas county to Point Marion.

ACTED ROTTEN.
Waynesburg Gave the Indians a Very
Dirty Deal on Monday.

There was quite good deal OF
interest locally in the out come of
the game with the Indians which
was played at Waynesburg. The
manager of the Indians was called
over phone and stated that he had
received the rankest treatment there
that he had ever seen on ball field.
He said the decisions were robber-
les and the team was treated in the
usual Waynesburg style until the
limit was reached and he took his
team from the field duri6g the sew
enth inning when the score was To
2.
People here who saw the Indians
play know that they would not kick
unless they were getting the worst
of it badly and they know that when
the team quits the field that the
treatment that caused them to do it
must have been very rotten. However
it surprises no one here To see how
Waynesburg acts when she has
chance to play with gentlemen. She
did not appreciate the situation and
OF course did not rise to it.

STILL AT SEA.
Autopsy of Earl Harris Not
Very Conclusive.

Wound on the Head Did Not Pro.
duce Madness Attack May
Have Been Caused by Other Things
Than Hydrophobia- Mothers Wound
Has Been Given Best of Treatment.
The post norton he'd on the re-
mains Of Earl Harris OF the West
Side on Monday developed the fact
that his mental condition did not re-
suit from the blow received on the
head sometime ago Just what did
cause the attack was not cleared up
and it will take some DAYS before it
can be certainly determined whether
or not it was hydrophobia.
It was found that no obstruction
existed in the abdomen although it
was thought that did on account
of the conditions prevailing. The
heart was found to adhere in several
places to the pericardium and in The
lungs a number of nodules had form
ed showing that the tissues were
ready to break down shortly with
tuberculosis.
The wound on the head did not
produce any fracture and examina,
tion Of this proved concluslvely that
it could not have caused him to lose
his mind. 1t eliminated one factor
which might have produced the dis
turbance
The wound which was given by
him to his mother was bad one but
as her arm was protected by dress
sleeve and other heavy clothing it is
not thought that there IL much dan.
ger of infection even if he had been
suffering from hydrophobia.
The skin was badly bruised by the
bite but it was not torn much. Time
will develop the nature of the bite
and the only thing that can be done
Is to await developments Every
thing has been done to ward of the
danger of infection from the bite.

Juuday was Children's Day at the
M. P. church and special programs
were rendered by the children
both morning and evening. La the
morning a short service OF songs and
recitations was rendered the choir
assisting with the music. In the
evening more elaborate program
was rendered which is ADMITTED to
have been the best ever seen in the
church. The children and those who
trained them for the services deserve
great credit for these excellent servic-
es. The church was tastefully and
beautifully decorated with cut and
potted flowers. At the evening SER
vices the church was crowded and a
large number were turned away from
the door. An offering of $33. was
made for foreign missions.

The society occupied the building
