Wolfe is Trying to Prove an Abb.
Native of This County.

Robert Wolfe, of Quiet Dell, this

vigorously on both sides, there being
large army of witnesses. Wolfe is a
young man about 25 years of age and
is coal miner.
"The government has made out a
pretty strong case the evidence to a
large degree being circumstantial.
The state rested Tuesday afternoon
but has great deal of evidence in
rebuttal. wolfe's witnesses were ex,
amined today, and they areaattempt-
ing to establish an alibl for him"

LICENSE
REFUSED
To Fellow Because Bride Does not
Reside in County.

A man giving his name as John An
drew McElhaney and mailing from
Doddridge county applied to County
Clerk Charles f. Holden yesterday
for license to mary Florence Jane
Workman. He stated that she was a
resident of Taylor county and then
said she resides in Doddridge county.
he insisted that she does not live in
this county. The clerk refused to
issue the license upon such informa-
tion and especially since she is not a
resident of the county. The fellow
promised to return with an atidavit
from her to the effect that she is a
resident of this county but has not
done so as yet. He appeared to be some
what under the influence of intoxi-
cants. The clerk did not feel quite
sure that the lady had any intention
of becoming the fellows bride.

The Fatal Wedding


"a play straight from the heart, a
story of love and laughter, hate and
tears, " is the way one critic describes
''The Fatal Wedding, the play that
will hold the boards at the Grand jan
aary %.
The scenes are all laid in New York
and are all particularly well mounted,
especially "The Palisades" where a
sensational feature is INTRODUCED
that of the villain and others swing
ing rayine on rope which is strung
across the stage and from which the
villain is hurled to death when the
rope is cut. The cast is an especially
good one.

A Successful MeIodrama.

~
Gypsy Jack, a melodramatic story
deity woven into a play, viii be seen
at the Grand opera house on Jan. 2srd.
There is nothing more enjoyable in a
theatrical sense than.a good stirring
melodrama, well played, and there is
no character that lends itself with SO
much facility to romance as that of
the gypsy. In Gypsy Jack, !" the au.
thor has endeayored to weave story.
that's filled with exciting episodes
into a stage production, and that he
has succeeded is evident from the opin-
ions of the press wherever the play
has been given. Jack is a boy whose
gypsy grandmother has stolen him
from his titled father, out of revenge
on the death of her daughter, Jacks
mother. This grandmother, who be-
comes queen of the tribe when her
daughter dies, informs Jack of his alb
duction and his parentage. Jack.
starts in to claim his own. He has, a
struggle against the machinations Of
pair of villains, who make it interest
ing for him and the audience. lie d.
nally triumphs, and not only wins a
fortune but captures the heroine of
the play as we'll. Gypsy Jack" is
handsomely mounted, and the pictur.
esque element Of the gypsy is taken
advantage of to the greatest extent in
the costuming. There is fine cast,
at the head of which is the well-known
actor, Willis Granger.
