A Wedding Complication to Be Set.
tied bv Jewish Rabbis.

According to information received from
Baltimore the bride of Sam Oren, who left
her husband the day after their marriage,
stated in yesterdays Star, has not yet
been located. Joe Goldberg, who is alleged
to have married Miss Marie Roypen, acc I'd
ing to the laws of the Orthodox Hebrew
faith by placing ring on finger and put
ting a coin in her hand, is also missing.
Relatives of the parties are satisfied that
she is with Goldberg. whom she had known
and probably loved for several years. Oren.
the disappointed groom, wants to charge
the fair one with bigamy some other
offense hoping to place her in position to
make her repent and perhaps return to him.
The three orthodox rabbis of the Baltimore
synagogues will meet and set tie the ques-
ton whether Goldberg or Oren is the wo-
mans husband in the eyes of the Mosaic
law What the young woman will do when
their decision Is reached is matter of con-
lecture.

SPECIAL AUTHORITY
Necessary In City Charters TO Punish
for Carrying Concealed Weapons.

BY decision Of the Supreme Court
Of Appeals, rendered in the case of
Judy vs. Lashley, from Tucker coun-
ty, that court has established the
rule that unless there is a special
act of the Legislature in the charter
of cities empowering mayors to assess
penalty for the offense of carrying
concealed weapons, that it is an of
tense punishable in the criminal
courts of higher jurisdiction. In
other words, the court holds that the
crime of carrying concealed weapons
comes under the head oil those crimes
in which the constitution declares
that man shall not be tried twice
for the same offense, and hence is a
crime especially for the courts to
pass upon by Indictment and trial.

TWO CENTS
HOPE FOR LIFE.
Condemned Murderers Refuse
to Give up Fight.

They Contest Every inch OF the Ground
Before the state Pardon Board
Eight of Them Wait Final Decision
No Legal Execution Under Gov.
Whites Administration.
Eight murderers in the penitentia
~, at Moundsville, are hoping tor
their lives though they are in the
shadow OF the gallows. They have
all been placed in the death build
ing by order OF the Warden but they
have not given up hope. Under the
present state administration there
have been no legal executions in this
state although large number of
murders have been committed and
many men have been condemned to
die.
Much OF the delay is due to the
trials which are taken before the
Pardon Board. Men under sentence
go before the board with applications
for reprievo and they fight until the
last ditch to prevent the law from
being avenged
One OF the cases in which this
county is more interested than in
any other is that of j. w Beatty, OF
Pres ton county, who killed his
brother-in law David Mines. He has
been under sentence OF death for
some time but has petition before
the Pardon Board to have his SEN
tence committed to lite imprison-
ment.
Mooney and Friday, Of Wheeling,
are trying to show that they are CON
fined for murder done by other par
ties They claim that Col. w. w.
Arnett died with a secret that would
have released them Col. Arnett of
ten stated that his clients were in
nocent.
William Mitchell, the condemned
eolored man from Wheeling, bases
his hopes upon the strong case of
probable insanity which his attor-
neys have made. State Henry's case
is at present pending in the supre me
Court. Louis Young, from Mellow
ell county, ana Berry Christian, from
Fayette, will have their applications
before the board ut its next meeting.
The case of George Carter. from
hanawha county, appears to be the
most hopeless He has been reprieyed
but the Supreme Court has affirmed
the decision of the trial Land the
Governor has declined to commute
his sentence but he still hopes for
mercy.

PROPER RECEPTION.
accorded to Bryan In Morgaatown
Says Parkersburg News a Republican
Paper.


Editor Bryan, of the Commoner,
visited Morganeown on Saturday
and leetured before the University
students and the people of the town.
He was treated in manner befit-
ting his prominence as a leading
American citizen says the Park ers
burg News Rep.) His reception
was hospitable and cordial and Nor
gantown is to be congratulated upon
the fact that it did the honors OF en-
tertainment harmonious with w est
Virginias reputation for hospitality
and cordiality.
Whilst this State could not stand
for Mr.. Bryan's political principles,
it esteems him as leading citizen,
sincere politician who has the
courage Of his convictions and typi
cally American in his home life and
his ideals and associations. We are
sure that he will remember his visit
to Morgantown and TO West Virgin
la soil made this year with far great
err pleasure than former visits when
his mission was Of a political ma.
ture. And for this we are most
heartily glad,

A WESTERN EDITOR
Gives a Unique But Truthful Write Up
OF Wedding ia His Neighb0rhood.

A Western editor, who believed
in giving exact facts in all cases,
and who abominated the practice so
common among all newspaper men,
of soldering over people in orded to
curry favor and tickle their vanity,
recently wrote up wedding in the
following manner:
willie Shortlike and Annie
Boomers were married at the NJ
f. church last evening. The church
was very prettily decorated with
flowers and potted plants, borrowed
promiscuously from the people who
didn't want to lend them. The dec
Grating was done under protest by
some members of the church who
were asked to do SO by the bride, and
couldn't well refuse. The ladies
were of the opinion that if the cou-
pie were so bent on having a stylish
wedding to pay some one to chase all
over town for day getting flowers
together aud then taking them home
again.
sThe bride wore a handsome sill
yer stein gown, made at home, and
the gown was decked out in $40
hand-me- down suit. The ushers
wore cutaway coats borrowed for the
occasion. Sallie Potts was maid of
honor and the concensus of opinion
was two to one better looking than
the bride. The young couple took
the morning train for St. Louis,
where they will spend more money
in few days than Willie can earn in
three months.
Willie SAYS now that he is married
he's going to settle down. Some of
our merchants think it would have
been better If he had settled up first.
The groom gets salary of $27 a
month, which is about the allowance
Annie has been used to for pin mon
ey. We wish for Willies sake that
the old saying that it takes no more
TO support two than one wants a
tie
"The bride sent us a shoe box full
Of conglomeration Of stuff supposed
to be cake IF this is sample Of
Annie's cooking we feel sorrow for
Willie. Our janitors's dog fell heir
to the cake and now he's living in
the cold, cold ground. But this
wedding is none of our funeral. If
Willie and Annie are satisfied, we
have no kick coming.

1T is perfectly natural for condem-
ned murders to cling to life but they
ought not to be allowed to cling in
definitely. After they are found
guilty and condemnded the most
merciful thing is to give them a
short shift.
The two Davis boys from Hunt
ington went home to-day. The
younger one has had scarlet fever.
He will not return to school until
next Fall while his brother will be
back at the beginning Of next term.

POSTMASTER j. p Fitch has been
notified by the postoffice department
that the pay of rural mail carriers
after the first of March will be six
hundred dollars a year instead OF
five hundred dollars as at present.
The raise is one that is in every way
iustifiable. The men didn't get
money enough for the work that they
did.

which was set for Tuesday evening

TERRIBLE CONDITIONS.
Commencement Hall death trap
Dreadful Calamity Constantly threat
ems people who go there.

Dreadful Calamity Constantly threat
ems people who go there.
People are just recovering from
their fear of consequences which
threatened the crowds in Commence
ment Hall Saturday night during
organs lecture. Many people re-
manned away from the hall because
they were afraid to take the desper.
ate chances involved in going.
The Hall has several exits besides
the regular ones but these have not
been fixed SO that in panic people
could get out through them.
The regular doors are full of peril.
Besides, the doors down the stairs
which are not any too wide, outside
doors have been placed ia the stone
arches and with a curious stupidity
these have been fastened TO swing In
instead OF outward
To clap the climax two of these doors
remained locked. But one was open.
In case OF fire or panic scores of peo-
pie would have been killed If the whole
audience had not been destroyed be-
cause Of jam Of dead preventing an
exit.
In any other town severe penalties
would be visited on the people respon-
sible for such state of affairs. What
is going to be done about it in Nor
gantown.
