favorite pattern around here for
long time.

be hustling under the direction OF
Mr. Harrison to get another section

Death of Mrs. Eyerly.

Mrs. Re5ecca Jolliffe EVERY died
at her home near Rosedale on the
morning of June 30th, aged 80 years,
months and 20 days. The de-
ceased was the wife of the late Jesse
EVERY and the mother of twelve
children, ten of whom survive.
In the family burying ground, by
the side of her departed hus band,
the remains were laid away, but be
yond the tomb thefe survives the
hope of the Christian that the i'm.
mortal spirit of her who lived shall
live again, and that those who mourn
her departure and lament the lost
love and tender kindness of mother
and friend may he with her once
more.
Her life was an example OF women
ly virtue and kindness and of Chris
tian fortitude Thus, while the
community has lost the benign in
fiuence of her association, we feel
that it has gained by her precept
and profited by her having lived.

FairmODt's Fourth.

Ed Carskadon. who is well known
in Morgantown won first prize at
the tournament at Fairmont Satnr-

Entire Stock Yards Threatened-Loss
Estimated at Million and Half, Gov.
cred by lnsurance-orisin Of Fire
Unknown.

St Joseph Mo-, July 6.-The main
building of the Hammond packing
plant was destroyed by fire Sunday.
The loss is estimated as high as
100000. 1t is entirely covered by
insurance. Two men lost their lives
In the flames One of them is report
ed to be Charles Miller, fire marshal
at the plant This could not be verl
fed. Three men were injured, one OF
them seriously.
For time the entire stock yards
district was threatened, BY hard
work the Nelson Morris plant, 300
feet north of the Hammond plant, was
saved, and this saved the Swift plant,
which Is north of the Nelson Morris
building.
The fire started a little after 2
o'clock. BY 8 o'clock most of tho
building was gone. The greater dan
ger was at 6 o'clock, when part of the
north wall fell and the fere6 flames
we're shot toward the Nelson Morris
building The carcasses of $500 hogs,
1900 cattle and SEQ sheep were burn.
ed. Nearly 100000 pounds of oleo-
margarine were destroyed. The con-
tents of the smokehouse were con
sumed.
The origin of the fire is a mystery.
There was no fire in the casing de-
partment in the eastern part of the
building, where the fire started.
Daniel Smalley, foreman of the car
department, fell from the car sheds
on the north of the building and suf-
fered serious injury.
The fatalities occurred about
o'clock. BY that time nearly the en-
tire building was on fire. A man with
hose. said to have been Miller, was
seen at one Of the windows on the
north side of the hog department He
walked back into the building and
few seconds later those ON the out
side heard terrible cries The man
did not appear again and is believed
to have been killed
Two young men who were in the
room and left a few minutes before
said that two failed to escape, but
they did not give the names of the
men, who were said to be employees
of the company.
The buildings and machinery were
covered by insurance to the amount
Of s550.000, and the stock was In
sured for about $500 900.

Monetary Loss Caused by Strike.

Denver, July 6.-James B. Grant,
chairman of the executive committee
Of the American Smelling and Rein
Ing company, estimates the damage
at the Grant and Globe smelters,
caused by the unexpected strike OF
the employees. at $4,000 to $4,000.
All but two OF the II furnaces in use
were frozen and the ore will have
to be cut out before the furnaces can
again be used. President Charles f.
Meyer. Of the Western Federation of
Miners. says that he does not think
1t will be necessary to call out the
miners of, the state In support of the
smelter men. The failure OF the leg
islature to pass an eight-hour law is
given by the strikers as the cause of
the trouble and the company Is ac-
cused OF using improper means to de-
feat legislation. A large force of po-
lice Is guarding the smelters in this
city and no serious disturbance has
occurred. though IL men have been
arrested for disorderly conduct and
making threats.

RACE WAR MAY BE PRECIPITATED
Mob Attempts to Batter in Jail at
Evansville to Lynch Negro
Murderer.

Evansville, Ind, July 6.-Twenty.
five policemen twice prevented a
lynching at the jail in this city, but
their bravery was not sufficient to
avert a bitter race war between ne
groes and the white mobs that sought
the life Of Lee Brown, the negro
slayer OF Patrolman Louis N. Massey.
The mobs smashed down iron gates
and were part way into the Jail be-
fore they were repulsed by the police
men. Their efforts to lynch Brown
aroused the enmity of the negroes of
the city, who gathered about the jail
and made threatening demonstra-
ton. The negroes were chased away
by crowd of white men, Mutterings
Of revenge are heard and clash may
be precipitated at any time

Hanna Disposes Of Business interests.

Cleveland, July 6.-According to a
story printed by the Leader Senator
M. A. Hanna has disposed of all his
business interests which necessitated
his personal oversight and is now
merely a stakeholder in but one or
two of the several large concerns in
which he was largely interested. The
reason for this, the Leader states, is
to give the senator more time to de-
vote to politics, having come to the
conclusion that he cannot do justice
to both business and politics at the
same time. Senator Hanna has left
for the east and will take an extended
trip on the private yacht of G. A. Girls
com, beginning within day or two.
Mrs. Hanna and Miss Phelps, the lat
ter a relative, accompanied him east.
