WIFE ELOPED.
Takes $4o3 of Husbands Money
and a Revolver.

MIS-. Mike Dell UOne-WeHt tlSltlHg
ON West Side but Returned in Time
to Take the $40 Train NOrth-Se
quel to Long Series of Troubles.
Mike Bell, the Italian fruit dealer
reports that his wife has gone with
$403 OF his good money and his revolt
yer. He has nothing to show for it
but long letter to her from man
named Boyd with whom he thinks
she eloped
The domestic relations between
Mike and his wife have been strained
for some time. They have had num-
erous little troubles which have been
taken before Mikes attorney. The
latter tried to make peace ia the
troubled family but 1t never was per-
manent.
On July 4th Mrs. Bells stepfather
Frank Pulldown got drubbing from
her In which Mike seems to have been
mixed up. 1t is said that Pulldown
was little funny That he went
into the store and called Mrs. Bell
names, and she Immediately resented
it, using physical force TO punish him.
Mike reports that she has been in
innate for some time with the fellow
named Boyd, who labored on the west
side of the river. He had long let
ter from Boyd to her which is now In
the attorneys custody and which is a
good clue to their plans for getting
away with the money. When last
seen she was going toward the place
where Boyd lodges between 6 and I
O'Clock Monday morning. Mike has
had warrant sworn out for her ar
rest.
There is another side to the story,
which says that Mrs. Bell has been
mistreated by her husband and that
this harsh treatment is largely resIon-
sible for her leaving him.
She professed to be Christian and
attended church regularly for some
time sitting well up in front and APP
pearing to enjoy the services,
Mike Bell has been a prosperous
fruit dealer here for long time. He
was married two or three years ago
and lived in rooms above his store on
Peasants street.
Chief Price was given warrant for
her last night. He learned that she
left here on train 81 at $40 yesterday
but has not vet ascertained her pres
ent whereabouts.

TWO LADIES LEFT
In the Dark Far From Their
Homes.

Their Horse Dropped Dead While
Driving Prom Morgantown to Fair,
mont We're Compelled to Walk two
Miles Through the Darkn IS and mud
to a House.
Fairmont Times
Mrs. w j Connell of the First
ward, and Mrs W. H. Slower Of the
East End had an experience few
nights ago that is seldom equalled in
this country.
They secured a two-seated rig and
one horse and drove to Morgantown.
They stayed there during the day, and
in the evening started home via the
road on the east side of the river.
Two small children accompanied them
on the trip and as the day was warm
they drove very slowly.
Abig storm came up and the road from
Smtihtown to this place was badly
blocked by falling trees, and the ladies
were compelled to take a circuitous
route to reach the county road at
Forksburg.
Just at the time they drove out in
TO the main pike their horse dropped
dead.
There they were in strange coun-
try and it was perfectly dark. They
were two or three miles from Smith
town, but they decided the best thing
to do was to walk back there and call
up Fairmont by telephone, the chill
dren soon got tired, and owing to the
darkness they were over two hours In
getting back to place where they
could stay all night
The next morning they sent boy
on to Fairmont and he brought a
horse back, and the ladies and chill
dren finally reached home.

CITY PUMP STATION
1t Fairmont Destroyed by Fire
Yesterday.
Water Supply However was Cut Off but
a Short Time-Will be Replaced at
Once BY a Fireproof Building
$1,000 to 81 800.

FAIRMoNT, w. Va, July S.-The
pumping station of the water
works system of the city caught fire
yesterday morning at four o'clock
and before the department could ar
rive on the scene it had burned con-
siderable in the building, but the
pumps and boilers were not dam
aged sufficiently to cause any delays
in the supply of water for the city.
The water was shut off from the
mains in the morning but was turn
ed on again Sunday evening.
At the hour named, Henry Ripple,
the night engineer, went to the up
per story of the building and lit
some gas jets. He then returned to
the pump room and spent some lit
tie time in oiling up the machinery
When he returned to the upper floor
he found all the wood work there to
be in flames and his efforts could
not extinguish the fire He then re-
membered hearing an explosion and
hasty investigation showed that a
gas pipe had let 90 causing the
flames to spread. The explosion
must have been loud one for it was
heard by persons living next door
to the station.
Mr. Ripple seeing that he could
do nothing towards saving the build
ing, sounded his whistle and at the
same time notified the day man,
Knight Passenger train No. en-
tering the yard saw the fire and the
whistle gave the alarm. Other To-
comotives helped and the fire whistle
began to chime in.
Owing to the distance in which the
station is located from the hose house
it took the boys some little time to
reach the place but they soon had a
stream playing on the building from a
fire plug about four hundred feet
away.
Seeing that it was no use to try to
save the main structure of the house,
Chief Reed directed his attention to
the lower floor on which were the
pumps and to the boilers. Thanks to
his and his mems service neither the
boilers or pumps were greatly damag-
ed, although the upper part of the
i building burned around them,
The big stack fell and lodged against
chimney and thus was prevented
from crashing into the delicate ma
chinery below
The department kept stream play
ing ON the building for several hours
after the biggest part Of the fire was
out and Immediately after this, Water
Commissioner Howard Swisher had a
large force of men at work clearing
away the debris and rearranging
things so the pumps could again be
started.
/ Fearing another fire in town, the
water was shut off from the city un-
I til about three in the afternoon when
| the pumps were started.
The station was built a few years
ago and was considered to be one OF
the best Ia the states. There was a
great deal Of wood used in construc-
tion and this was the cause of the in
tense heat. The damage is estimated
TO be about ST, 600 $1,000 and there
was mn Insurance.

THE PATENT SIDE.

The Memphis Commercial Ap- peal truthfully says:
 "A part of the country editors individuality was lost when the ready print companies began fur nishing him with paper printed on one side. 1t was a great piece of economy, and it enabled him to furnish his patrons il much larger paper than when the type was all act by hand in his own office. But as the matter on the patent side was selected tor genera! q, e by d large number of newspapers he had no control over ii. end it did not represent his views or taste. Part of his paper still cx- pressed his sentiment and con taincd his views; the foreign printed part of it was filled up with matter much of which he would have rejected had it been possible for him 10 do so"
 One prominent objection that can be had to tbe patent slde is the editor who uses 1t has next to no control of the matter 1t con tains, and some times, perhaps often, something appears on the patent side which the editor would net use at all if he could prevent it. We remember but Il few months ago to have seen on the patent slde of Il North Arkansas paper an article which dil Al kan sas and the people of the state a grave injustice. Some Yankee ealoot had written d lengthy sketch slanderin9 Arkansas, and 1t found its way into the Arkan- sas patent sides. N hat Il feeling must have come over the Arkan- sas editors who used 1t. An all home-brint county paper suits the people best. Besides this fact, an all home-print office proclaims is ability to attend to It's own business and run it's own boat, -Sha.p County Record

GOOD FOR CUBA.

The Cuhans may be somewhat behind hand in many things and have antiquated notions on many subjects. They may be slow to see the necessity for streets and sewers and sanitary measures aud they may cling to the ancient wooden blow in agriculture and the cane knife as an implement of war, but they certainly know how to treat criminals and scoun- drels, and they are not slow to visit condign punishment upon thieves. The conviction of Nicely, Reeves and Rathbone and sentence to ten years each in the penitentiary and the imposition of fines on the trio aggregaling $l27 ,lSl is an evidence that ln the island thieves are unpopular. These scOundrelS not only robbed the government ot it's revenue, but they disgraced the people of bis country and filled the land with slckening humiliation. Their punishment is justly due and the pubic will rejoice over the announcement of their conyIc- tim.

state for another. Heretofore 1t has been the custom for a CandI- date to look only to his own affair and let others do the aame. Governor Davis, contrary to GUS tom, took the stump f9r Clarke, and by letter and wIle appealed to his friends to vote for his flv- oritc. Two weeks before the election he scattered broadcast throughout the state thousands of cards containing, over his sig nature, this request: vote for James P. Clarke for United States senator. He is against the trusts Without doubt this changed a great number of votes from Jones to Clan ke. The man who managed the Clarke campaign did as much to achieve the vic tory as any one who took a lead ing part in the contest. This was Judge W. NJ. kavanaug1.
 Night and day he was at the Clarke headquarters, doing the work of d general in command of an army i'll action. Two weeks before the election he said he was pretty sure that Clarke would win. A week before ;he election he announced that Clarke was sure of victory.
 His organization had been com pleted. He knew every man that was working fDr Clarke, how he was working and what his influence amounted to. The cay before the election Judge Kavanaugh said that Clarke would carry not less than forty five counties, and perhaps more, and that he could not be defeated. His management of the Clarke campaign was supetb and fault less. This Is how it happened Arkansas Gazette.
