FATAL SHOOTING.
Esquire Gilbert BsniIy, Of Pixies.
Vile. Shot and AImest Killed
By Riley Ramsy An Old
6rudgs the Cause.

catiettsburg, tKy.l Press.
A fatal shooting occurred near
Pikeville last Sunday evening in
which the life of one of Pike county's
most respected and influential citi-
zens was shifted out in a twinkling.
The participants in the fatal affray
were Esquire Gilbert Bently and
Riley Ramey, both we'll known and
respected citizens of that county.
Last Sunday evening as Esquire
Bently was coming down the Elk
horn road he met Riley Ramey
about three miles below Elkhorn
city and the trouble of an old grudpe
was renewed. About two years ago
Bently shot and wounded Ramey's
son in difficulty, The origin of
which we are not informed. The
younger Ramey recovered from the
wound, but that trouble led to the
murder of Bently as told above.
Ramey shot Bently with 3s cali
ber Colts revolver and he survived
about one hour. Bently returned
the fire after he was shot but his
aim was wild. Ramey is still at
large but promises to give himself
up if assured of protection and a
fair trial.
Esquire Bently was an old timber
man and was well known here where
he frequently came on business. His
name is familiar one on the Alger
House register, of this city, and his
many friends will read this report
with profound regret.

GUSHING GUyANDOTTs WATERS.
Boom Broken and a Great Loss Of
Timber Results Thereirom.
Huntington Herald, Jan. d.

Huntington Herald, Jan. -.
One of the most damaging floods
that has occurred in the Guyan-
dotte river since 1891, was that
of last night. The torrential show.
ers that fell on Saturday and Sun
day Dights, so swelled the water
of the river that a tremendous our
rent soon followed, carrying float
ing before IL with a great force.
The boom at Russell's creek, reach
ing to Everett's Landing, was
broken by the strong pressure of
logs, and from $1,000 to 1900
were hurriedly carried into the
Ohio river. Some were caught.
hut the weather being intensely
cold, many, of course, went down
to lower points. The loss is esti-
mated by Mr.. Wilson, of Guyan-
dotte, who suffered with others, to
be not less than $4,000.
In Mud river, where was also an
unexpected rise, about 5000 logs
went out and the Howells bridge
wac carried away.
The immense run of loose logs,
with drift, large trees having been
pulled out by the roots, some two
feet in diameter, causing the
breaking of the water company's
eight inch service pipe that cross
ed the river, and Decessitating
the immediate laying of two
inch pipe across the suspension
bridge for temporary use. Men
were engaged all last night push
ing the work, and it is expected,
superintendent Adams says, that
water will be turned on sometime
tonight. AS 1t is, Guyandotte, in
case of a fire of magnitude, would
he almost at the mercy of the
flames.
The cause of the strong current
of the Guyandotte was ewing to
the fact that tho Ohio river was
sufficiently low to prevent "back-
water" from restraining the "mad
rush of water"

Marshall Business College Fulfill
Ing Q Highly Profitable
mlsslon.

The Marshall Business College is
one of the local institutions of which
every huntingtonian should feel
proud. During it's history of about
six years, since it was founded, it
has certainly accomplished very
highly salts actory results. But it's
usefulness is only beginning. 1t has
become one of che indispensable en-
terprises which is destined to be-
come more and more important, and
while there have been some changes
recently made in the management
and faculty it will be n pleasure to
all we'll wishers of it TO learn that il
has at its head, as principal, a gen.
tleman of thorough qualifications.
Prof. w. A. Ripley, who has been
connected with it for several years
and whose work as principal of the
Huntington Business College several
years ago demonstrated his fitness
to head this splendid school.
Another important teacher in the
teaching force, Is the addition of
Mr.. o. r. Neff, who will assume a
portion of Prof. Ripley's work in
the commercial department. Mr..
Neff is n highly successful Ohio
teacher of experience and is certain
to render satisfaction.
Prof. Profit will travel, to some
extent for the school and in the, in
terest of other business with which
he is connected.
The greatly increased attendance
at Marshall Business College has
necessitated the addition, also, of an
extra teacher in the Shorthand De
partment and several new machines
for the Typewriter Department.

Extraordinary activity prevails

brought to the field and work upon

"A contract has been entered into tor

been awarded another three miles of
the grading which will take the road

up Tug River These contracts re-
quire the completion of the work

takes the company into the field of

the work and they will be ready for
the grading to begin by the middle
of next week. There are four corps
of engineers at work an the location.
by the first of July, it is thought
the company will be ready for ship

has been somewhat changed and the
road will be built Oh the west side
of Tug River mostly on the hill side.
A survey has also been made two.
miles up the Sand Lick. 1t is need
less to say that thousands OF dollars
will be expended in this territory
soon and now Is the time for bust,

ADVERSE TO COL. SMITH
Gossip Among. the Military Men
as to the Opinion of the
Court of Errors.

Both sides in the dispute about General
P. F.. Wanser's order concerning the cleo
ton OF brigadied general are eagerly wait
ing the result of the conference between
the Justices of the Court of Errors and
Appeals. Military men are almost unani-
nous that the decision viii be adverse to
Colonel r. G. Smith.
The passage of Colonel Hainesfs bill
yesterday in the House giving the Gov
ernor power to appoint a brigadier gen.
eral in case there is no election gave rise
in some quarters to the belief that it
virtually disposes of Colonel Smiths s
case. That, however, is not SO; 1t does
not affect the controversy in the least.
One who is an authority on these ques-
tions said today
THE Governor, you know, appoints
ma jcr general inspector general. quarter
m master general, general of rife practice,
adjutant general. and so forth. and where
there is no election he has also the power
to appoint lieutenants, captains, majors
lieutenant colons and colonies. Now the
object of the bin over which there have
been so many groundless fears is simply
to include a brigadier general in that
the States officers in two groups-one
solely appointed by the Executive and the
other elective. but in case of no e-ect1on
then they are appointive.
'.It would work like this" he continued.
'Supposing the election is held with or
cavalry and A gets the same number Of
votes as B., or anything occurs and lots
ea n. Won know why then the Governor
will appoint the brfgadier general.
