SATURDAY. morning at 6:1a o'clock

CONCERNING FOOT BALL
Mr.. Bassnel, of Weston, has Some Very
Decided Opinions Denounces the
Great College Game.

Foot ball is a game about which
most people have very decided opin-
ions. They either get enthusiastic
over it in the highest degree OF de-
nounce it in strong terms.
A few days ago Mr.. James Basel.
of Weston, w. Va, graduate of
West Point, class OF 1867, received a
communication from Captain Smith
soliciting funds for the support and
maintenance of foot ball. Mr.. Bassell
promptly replied, and judging from
the letter we infer that the great coll
lege pastime is not as popular with
him as it might be.
Mr.. Basel wastes no time in de-
ciining aid for such cause and then
proceeds to score the game as s'barbar-
oas and vicious, more demoralizing
than prize lighting, and more savage
and brutal than the much-denounced
bull fighting, so popular in the semi
civilized bailiwicks OF Mexico and
Spain " So far as the commanders Of
the prospective armies of this country
are concerned Mr.. Baesel holds that
iuCIl CT uIdbtOu duI u dlntbA ohO01d
be conducted 'along the lines Of hui
man feeling and sentiment" which
in his Judgment would bar football
right at the outset. In conclusion
he adds:
81 don't believe in making human
nature any more deprayed than 1T rs,
and when we teach young and ambi-
tious yonths that It is right and prop
er for them to train in game which
causes them to injure their fellow
creatures and 'sput them out" to bow
their necks like infuriated beasts aud
prepare for the desperate rushes, it is
the ne plus ultra of heathenism, bru-
tally and cruelty. We may as well
look to hades for saints as to expert
elevation and morality from the bru-
tai game you are asking me TO con-
tribute funds to support"

FOG CAUSED COLLISION.

Furlaer Particulars of wreck Of Wes-
ton Miraculous Escape Of En-
glnemen - Fireman Rolled Down
Bank Damage Done By Collision.

Further particulars have been
learned in regard to the Weston flyer
yesterday morning. The list OF In
iured given by the New DOMINION
Yesterday was accurate, All OF the
victims are doing well. No. 3 arrived
in Morgantown shortly after this pa
per had gone to press.
About Ills engine 1901 brought q
load of empty coal cars to Highland TO
run them into switch. There was
some delay in this and the train stood
on the main track for some time.
The morning was so foggy that it was
difficult to see any distance at all, and
the fiagman sent out by the freight TO
check No. 3. was unable TO attract
the engineers attention, and the pas
senger train going at rate OF nearly
thirty miles an hour crashed into the
freight train.
The englnemen on both trains had
merely time to jump before the crash
came. The crew on the freight got
out of it without injury, but Engineer
Stanhagen slipped when he jumped
and fell, breaking his arm, the fire.
man also fell and rolled fifty feet
down hill on the ice 10 the river.
His was most miraculous escape, for
he had no sooner jumped than the
crash came and the trucks from under
one Of the coal cars rolled down the
hill after him, but fortunately they
crashed into tree, saving him from
death.
Number had r-baggage and mail
and express cars, smoker, the lady's
coach and Pullman chair car. There
were very few passengers in the
smoker and they all escaped injury.
The lady's coach was crowded, and
when the engines went together the
passengers were all thrown in heap.
Several were injured by the fall, but
most of them received cuts from bro
ken window glass, and the little fire
extinguishers. An hour after the
wreck the lady's coach looked like an
operating room Of a hospital. The floors
were covered with blood, and the win
dows and seats were smeared. One of
the injured, whose identity could not
be learned, had several teeth knocked
out, one of which, a large jaw TOOTH,
was found in seat.
Engine 1901 had its cowcatcher,
smekestack and cab torn of and her
front trucks derailed. The end of the
boiler was smashed in, ard the tender
was almost totally demolished.
Number 237 had the passenger
train, and her boiler was bent In and
stack knocked Of. The cowcatcher
smashed and the front truck derailed
The tender escaped serious injury.
Out OF the sixteen coal cars in the
train three of them we're smashed into
splinters, and were thrown oyer the
hill by the wrecking train, which ar
rived about 10 O'Clock.
Outside of few windows broken,
and toilet rooms smashed up, the pas
senger cars were not damaged. The
ladY's coach was derailed but was put
back on the track without the aid Of
the wrecker.
Railroad men say the accident was
a very lucky one, Tor it is really won
derful that large number were not
either killed or badly injured.

of Conspiracy to Defraud

MOTION MADE FOR NEW TRIAL
Methods Of postoffice Department Sc.
vereiy Criticised by Counsel for De.

Mcesesor in Charge of US. Marshal.

Baltimore, Dec. 9.-Former Postal
Clerks Thomas w. McGregor and Co
lumbus Ellsworth Upton were convict.
ed in the United States district court
of conspiracy to defraud the govern
ment in connection with the purchase
of 10000 leather pouches for use in
the free delivery service. Charles e.
Smith, who received the order for the
pouches through the influence of Up
ton and MeGregor, was the principal
witness against the accused. Tho
case was given to the jury and after
celebrating As minutes verdict Of
guilty was returned.
Counsel for the convicted men i'm
mediately made motion for new trial
and Judge Morris agreed to hear ar
guments on the motion Saturday.
Bond In $4,000 was furnished by Up
tons friends and he was released
McGregor is in charge of United
States Marshal Langhammer pending
the arrival of friends from Washing.
ton to furnish a similar amount OF
bail for him.
The session of the court was taken
UP entirely by arguments of counsel
for the prosecution and defense Dis
triet Attorney John C. Rose and
Charles j. Bonaparte addressed the
jurors for the government and Messrs.
A. e. L. Leckie, of Washington, and
William S. Bryan, Jr., of this city, for
the defense
In the course of his remarks Mr.
Bryan took occasion to criticize the
methods of the postofffee department
He said in part:
First Assistant Postmaster General
Wynne is overpaid for merely signing
letters he doesn't read. The whole
postoffice department is incompetent
~ and shamelessly rum and the gov
eminent is bounding MeGregor and
Upton as scapegoats, because of gross
incompetency in conducting the af
fairs of the department"
He ridiculed Mr.. Wynne as a high
roller and man who lived on cham
payne, green peas and eanvas-bacl'
ducks, and didn't attend to his bust
ness, and called attention to the way
the government had sent special eoun
sci besides the district attorney &c
prosecute McGregor and Upton.
Speaking of Smith, Mr. Byrar
scored him roundly, saying that ever
the mention of his name gave a bad
taste in the mouth.

WHAT TO GET MAN FOX XMAS
Some suitable Thinss Where they may
be found.

One of the plzzling things that a
woman has to decide within the next
few days 1t is not so much that
men are unreasonable or hard to please
but women do not always know what
weuld be useful and acceptable to
men. There are some things that
would be appreciated by almost any
man. Fortunately or unfortunately
most men smoke and they appreciate
anything that is convenient or useful
in connection with this pastime.
Smoking sets are always acceptable
and at The Acme this year there will
be found a number of styles OF smok-
Ing sets ranging in price from $l.25 TO
SO. 90. There is one very handsome
set with stand that sells for $3.50.
Then shaving sets are convenient
and ornamental. They may be had
here from $3.50 to $500.
A really useful present that any
man would be glad to get is fountain
pen. Good fountain pens are con-
venience and help. Among the
best kinds of Fountain pens are Wat
erman's Ideal, Moore's Non Leakable
and the Paul E. Writ. All these are
sold at The Acme and vary in price
from $1.50 for plain pens up TO solid
gold mounted pens. Another useful
and acceptable gift is an umbrella.
A great many dealers charge fancy
prices for umbrellas as they are such
a saleable article, but The Acme asks
only reasonable margin Of profit.
Five dollars buys an umbrella here
that sells everywhere else at $3.50.
Umbrellas here at from $f.00 up.
Bill books and pocketbooks man
always carries with him and is con
stand reminder of the giver. AL
styles and prices at this popular store.
Collar and cuff boxes and travelling
cases for men are always good gifts.
A fancy inkwell is also useful and
makes nice present. The clerks
at The Acme have all been instructed
TO help the customers in every way
that they can In the selection Of gifts.
