POISON.
w. v. U. Chemists find Arsenic and
Corrosive Sublimate In Fluid.

A sample Of the fluid drank by
Father Prendergast at Warrington by
mistake for mineral water and which
caused his death was sent here to the
State University chemical laboratory
for analysis. Dr.. F. L. Kortright
has completed this analysis and made
his report to Mr.. q. Powell the prose
cnting attorney Of Marion county. 1t
shows that the fluid contained large
percentages Of deadly poison; corro-
sive sublimate, white arsenic and
formaline. 1t is estimated that
Father Prendergast drank enough
poison to kill half dozen men.
The analysis will be reported TO the
Marion county grand jury and may
result IN trouble to some one. The
grand jury is now in session at Fair

Consumption is a human
weed fourishing best in weak

easily destroyed while young /;
when old, sometimes i'm

Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will son
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will

RAILROAD TALK.
Rumors and Speculations about
new Roads.

One to be Built from M0rgantoun to
Belington-A Barbour County View
of it "A new Road is to run Through
Greene County from the Wabash to
Brownsville.
The following special has been re
ceived from Philippi. 1t is of inter
est here in view Of the fact that IL
shows what the people up there are
| talkin about:
The report that the new railroad to
be built from Morgantown to Beling-
ton is no longer mere rumor but a
settled fact. Official surveyors have
been placed on the road and work will
be commenced before January 1st.
This road opens up one of the leading
districts 10 West Virginia, taking up
the territory underlaid with the IA
nous Ffeeport vein OF coal in Preston
and Barbour counties. The track has
been laid to Gladesyille, Preston
county, and the extension will be
made as soon as practicable. A short
inc will also be built, branch of the
new road extending from Nestorville
to Valley Furnace, In Barbour county.
At that place the valuable iron ore
will be developed and giant iron and
steel mills erected on the spot.
Freight and passenger traffic over the
line will be very extensive as the dis
tanee to Plttsburg and intermediate
towns will be lessened considerably.
Another matter of interest to Nor.
gantown people is that Of the charter
ing of a new line in Greene county.
This is TO run from Whitley creek
down the river to West Brownsville.
1t leaves the Wabash and goes down
the river to join the Pennsylvania.
The people who have Incorporated
this new line have every faith that
the Wabash will be built.
The road is to be % miles long and
it will open up 100, 900 acres of Pitts
burg coal. The capital stock is $780,
600 and it has all been subscribed.
The charter was issued by the state
Of Pennsylvania.
James Neale is President of the
company and all of the members of
the concern live in Pittsburg. They
are iron and steel men for the greater
part.
