A MURDERESS
Gets 6 Years
Considered at the Time One Of the
most Horrible Crimes In the
History Of Logan County.
SENTIMENT CHANGED IN her FAVOR
She Marched the Object of her
jealousy to the Head of Big
Creek and Shot Her with q
Winchester Rifle.

Bluefield, May 21.-Maude Ballard
who murdered Miss Chambers on Big
creek last February, has been sentenc-
ed to six years in the penitentiary.
The murder occurred February 20,
and was considered at the time one OF
the most horrible crimes in the history
of Logan county.
The Ballard woman made confess
sion, and it is due to a change in pub
lie sentiment that her sentence was so
light.
The Ballard woman's husband, it
seems, was intimate with the Chambers
girl and had been living in open adul-
terry with her. The wife, driven to
madness with jealousy, went to the
house where the Chambers girl lived,
called her out and marched the object
of her jealousy to the head of Big creek
and shot her with WincheTer rifle.
The Chambers girl was aL3ut eight
cen years of age and very Sandstone.
and at the time the bullet was fired
which snapped in two the thread of
life she was on her knees praying for
mercy
The body lay in the woods two days
before it was found and buried.

VlRGINIANS ARE NOT FOR
CLEVELAND

Washington, May 21.-If Grover
Cleveland is to be the choice of the
Democracy for the presidency in 1904,
he will not be it at the hands of the
people of Virginia. if the opinions one
hears expressed by Virginians who fire.
quent the hotel Hobbies of Washington
may be taken as representing the views
of the people of the Old Dominion And
it is probable that they come more
nearly rejecting the sentiment of the
people than any other class of men one
will meet. They come from every sec
ton and of every vocation.
| Now and then one meets with some
| one who says that Cleveland is the
logical candidate and the strongest
man the party can put forward and
| the like, but the sentiment seems to be
overwhelmingly the other way. Very
few indeed, are the men, who followed
Bryan in his campaigns who have any
opinion at all of the Princeton states
man. Nearly all of them are as I'M
compromisingly opposed to him, and
as ready to pour out Vituperation upon
his head as they were in 1896 or in
1900.
The majority of them are ready to
| agree that Bryan killed himself and
| that he is not a suitable man to put
forth this time, but there are but few
| who have changed in the least as to
| their hatred of Cleveland
Congressman Jones verified this in
dication of public sentiment in the state
in talking to correspondent, when he
said:
Il do not know who my people are
for, but / am sure that they are not for
Cleveland. They have no warm blood
for him, and while | do not think they
are as strong either in enthusiasm or
in numbers for Bryan, it is certainty
that Bryan's loss has not resulted in
Clevelands gain
The majority of those who talk eth
er publicly or privately, seem to prefer
Senator German for the nomination,
and there is no doubt about it that if
he is in the race the politicians will be
for him even if the people are not.

SOCIETY WOMEN
DEFIED LAW

Richmond, Va, May 21.-A number
of society women of this city resisted
the decree of the city authorities to
readjust the curb line of the city by
cutting down a row of superb sycamore
trees which, by their great growth,
have appropriated much of the side
walk and portions of the gutter.
Men with axes were ready to lay on
when several women appeared and re-
monstrated with the foreman. Find
ing him obdurate, they surrounded the
trees and opened hot fire on the ak
men. A crowd of boys and men raj
lied to the rescue, and threats were
made of violence.
One well-known matron, bareheaded
and with fire in her eye, declared she
had played in her childhood under
that tree, and that it would take 100
years to grow another, and that it was
shame and disgrace upon the city to
cut it down. The foreman telephoned
his chief that the women at Fourth
and Franklin were about to hang him,
and that the city engineer had better
come and see about it. The city en-
gineer and district committeeman tried
to argue the case, but after two min
utes' debate were glad to agree to build
the cutters in circ,es around the tree.

JLTT SAYS He
Is INNOCENT

Lexington, KY, May 21.-The ques-
ton uppermost in the minds of all
abiding Kentuckians is: "Will the
assassins of James B. Marcum ever be
punished?" When Curtis Jett was ar
rested in Madison county at the home
of his mother people who read of the
capture felt that the end was near.
They thought Jett would tell the whole
plot and the whole gang would soon
be behind the bars. Jett has asked for
release on habeas corpus writ, and
if this fails he must be taken back to,
Jackson, where the crime was COM
mitted, for trial. He will not ask for
change of venue, preferring to risk
his chances among those who have
stood by him in the past.
Governor Beckham cannot send
troops or disqualify the officers I'M
less the prisoner asks that it be done.
The feud feeling is SO intense and the
situation so dangerous in the face OF
the three assassinations just recorded
that the people will not testify tossthe
killing. They tell one story in Lex
ington and an entirely different story
in jackson. Already several have
made affidavits denying statements at
tributed to them.
Jet receives many callers in his
cell at the Clark county jail. He was
the centre of attraction yesterday af-
ternoon, and shook hands with every
one with his left hand, his right being
hurt from catching his thumb under
the hammer of his revolver
He declared he was innocent of the
crime, and that he cares nothing about
the trouble.
when l get back to Jackson he
said, II will prove that l was not in the
courthouse"
Jett's stepfather denied that Jett had
run him away from home on Saturday
night.
Jett employed w. w. Stevenson as
his attorney, and habeas corpus pro-
ceedings were begun before Judge J.
M. Benton.
The Cockrill people wired to Jack
son for witnesses, but were informed
that they would not come

DRY As A BONE

Lynchburg, May 21.-Campbell coun-
ty court was last Monday and Tues
day occupied in the hearing of the APP
plications for liquor license in Brook
Vile district which lies around the
city of Lynchburg in Campbell county
Heretofore there have been thirteen or
fourteen barrooms in Brookville dis
trict, three at the Watering Branch,
two at the Quaker Westinghouse, one
just outside of West Lynchburg, two
at the Presbyterian graveyard, four at
Sandy Hook, one at Tyreeanna, and
one near Bococks. Most of these made
application at the April term of the
court, but as the Mann bill had not
passed, the judge adjourned the cases
to this term of court. Only two of
the applicants were heard, to-wit: w
l.. Christ, near the Watering Branch
There two cases were heard by the
court Monday The applicants were
represented by Mr.. Volney E. Howard
land the contestants by Messrs Aubrey
3. Strobe and ]. w. Harvey. After the
hearing of the evidence and argumen
of the counsel, the court delivered 1t.
opinion Tuesday morning, holding tina

that the community in which the bar
rooms were situated had "police pro

GOULD'S EYES ON THE SOUTH

The New York Commercial pub
fishes the following as from Chicago:
sIf conclusions prompted by the
Could interests acquisition OF the 81.
Louis Valley are correct, the deal is the
first of a series of moves designed 10
result in an occupation OF Morgan Ter
ritory south of the Ohio river. While
the small line taken over is OF Nttle
Importance when considered by ltself,
it is an important link in the chain
which it is evidently the Intention OF
the Goulds to weld between the pres
ent lines of their system and the lower
valley and gulf ports. 1t will also pc
a part of the line connecting ST Louis
with New Orleans through Memphis.
at was recently announced that the
Gould lines contemplated building TO
point ON the Ohio river nearly opposite
Paducah. What the real object OF
move down to the north bank OF that
stream might be is left to conjecture,
but the Interpretation put on 1t was
that the Goulds intended to get out to
the manufacturing and commercial
centres of the southeastern section
through that gateway.
ut has also been said Gould intends
to build into Birmingham from Mem
phs and get a close connection with
that territory through the FSeaboard
Air Line This is declared to be on
account of deliberate plan to invade
the territory which the Southern has
taken possession of as its own.
1.-THE men at the head of the Sea-
board Air Line are said to, be in the
proper frame of mind to enter into a
close alliance, offensive and defensive,
with Gould as against the Morgan in
terests. The connections to be made
will open the way for Gould to the ter
ritory which he covets, and it will
serve the double pntpose of the Air
Line people by giving them an outlet
and enabling them to get even with
Morgan on an old score which has been
unsettled since the Louisville and
Nashville deal.
s"rhe completion of the plans for
reaching the Atlantic and Pacific coast
cities over Gould lines seem to be now
in fair way of accomplishment as
soon as a few hundred miles OF track
can be constructed The glgantlc
Gould system will not only be line
from ocean to ocean, but it will have
its tentacles extending into the soutn-
east section of the northwest and Its
main stem in the heart OF the region
between the lakes and the eastern
coast.
"The close connection between the
Clark and Gould interests on the west
ern end of this big system and the sea
board Air Line and the Goulds on tht
southeastern will become more eVlueh'
as the plans are developed.
