Lieut.. E. r.. Stewart Takes Gold Medal
and 100 Prize at West Point.

Lieut.. f. r. Stewart who is now
an instructor at West Point was the
winner of one OF the capital prizes
offered there for the best essay last
winter. The subject assigned was
relating to the necessity tor disap
pearing guns in coast defenses.
Lieut.. Stewart entered the contest
but did not devote very much time
to it, and hardly hoped to win.
When the decisions were announced
he was gratified to find he was the
winner of a fine gold medal, 800 in
cash, and life memberhip IN one Of
the best societies at the Academy
He is bright fellow, and las made
himself very valuable in the govern
ment service.
After the close of the Spanish war
he invented plan for unloading
shells that were loaded with nitrogly-
cerine to protect the harbor at New
York and saved the government about
one hundred and fifty. thousand dol
lars by the device. Before that time
unloading such shells was such haZ-
ardous task that t cost Sixteen dollars
per she'll to get the work done. By
Mr.. Stewards invention it was done
at a cost of so cents per she'll
With all his successes and honors,
Mr.. Stewart is the same genial COM
panionable fellow as when he was on
his fathers farm.
Mr.. Stewart is son Of our worthy
fellow citizen Mr.. S. 9. Stewart of
Georgetown. He was reared ia this
county. He has taken the four years
course at West Point and is Il gradu-
ate OF the y. 5. Military Academy
at that place, having received his d.
ploma about the time Of the beginning
OF hostilities IN the Spa nsih Amer
lean war.
He was anxious to go to Cuba but
was not allowed to do so, because he
was the best man in the government
employ to superintend the Mining Of
New York barber He was kept at
New York against bis wishes. There
were only three men who could do the
work with which he was charged, and
he was the best of the three.

ion and the National Glass Company.
Advance of Five Per cent Granted.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Aug. 22-After
an all day conference between repre-
sentatiyes of the National Glass Com
pany and the American Flint Glass
w ,rker's Union, an agreement was
reached which will probably prevent
a strike in the table glassware facto-
ries of the country.
The conference was on the punch
tumbler branch OF the industry The
workers demand an increase OF 10 per
cent, but the manufacturers made
compromise proposition which Presi-
dent Voitle finally agreed to submit
to his members. Mr.. Voitle would
not tell the conditions of the PROPOSE
ton but said he considered it good
one and believed his union would ac-
cept 1t.
From D. c.. earle who represented
the National Glass Company it was
learned that the manufacturers offer
an advance Of per cent restoring the
wages which were in effect before the
panic Of 1893 when a general reduc-
tion took place.

his home near here yesterday his wife
set fire to both the house and barn.
They were entirely destroyed, with

mile into the mountains.
Murray arrived home an hour later.
He saw what had happened, and at
once started in search of his wife and
the little ones, after having made sure
that their remains were not in the
ruins. Purely by accident he started
up long ravine, and heard the little
ones screaming. Breathless he reach
ed the top of small plateau, just in
time to save them from cremation.
The crazed mother had built big
fire of brush and leaves, and was pre-.
pairing TO cast the babies into the
blaze She had one child in her arms
when the father reached them, and
snatched them away TO safety.
Mrs, Murray did not seem SIrpris-
ed to see her husband, and re- his fran
tic inquiries she said she had just
received a message from God which
told her to sacrifice her home, bel
children and then herself The home
was gone, her children were ready to
go. and she was willing to follow.
The children were taken from heI
and she is being closely watched. She
has never uatil now shown any symp-
toms of insanity.

FIGHT Is ON FOR

Water Front.
FAIRMoNT, Aug. 22- Which great
railroad will get the Water street
route-the Baltimore & Ohio or the
Wabash? This is the question that is
the sole topic of discussion here this
morning.
Last night at the meeting OF the
City Council Mr.. g. +. Conway rep
resenting the Buckhannon * North
ern in company with his chief engi-
neer, appeared before the body and
showed plans and maps of the route
that they wanted through the First
ward. They correspond exactly with
the route that will be asked for by the
Baltimore & Ohio In an application
for a franchise that will be handed in
little later.
1t is thoroughly believed here that
the Buekhannon & Northern officials
are working to block the Wabash
scheme, and for that reason the APP
pearanee of Mr.. Conway at Council
last night was matter of much in
terest. He took up about an hours
time and showed the members of the
body just what would be wanted by
the company.
A few months ago the matter was
considered by Council but met with
much opposition from the members OF
the First ward who claimed that the
property on Water street would be
greatly damaged by the road 1t is
now understood that whatever COM
pany gets the franchise it will first
have to buy all the property that will
be in any way damaged.
COLONEL WILLIAMS MUST CLOSE.
A peculiar case was brought to the
attention of the Council last night,
and the deciding of it will affect n ear
ly every whisKey dealer in the city.
A few weeks ago the heavy rains caus-
ed Colonel Williams of the Tavern to
open up bar on an upper floor and to
use it when the water was in the reg
ular place in the basement 1t proved
to be far more handy room than the
old bar, so it was kept running The
matter was referred to council and
last night that body decided that but
one place could be run on a city j.
cense and Colonel Williams was order.
ed to close up one of his rooms.
