LAW SUITS GALORE.
Sale of Coal Lands in Grant and
Cass Causes Trouble.

William and Harry Hess Claim that
They Have Not Received Money com.
ing to Them for Taking Options
Lawyer Wants His Fee-Taylor's
Flight Leaves Complicatfons-Baker
and Herd Litigation.
A suit has been brought by Will
liam b. Hess and Harry G. Hess
against Jonas w. Emory, Parker S.
johnson and the Cochran Coal and
Coke Company The declaration in
in the suit has not yet been filed.
The amount sued for is $4,000.
1t is understood that the suit is
The outgrowth of coal sales made in
Grant and Cass districts this coun-
~. Options were taken by Hess
and Son and transferred to johnson
and Emory. The coal sold was
DISPOSED of to the Cochrans and
Hess and Son allege that they have
never received the money which is
coming to them for having taken
certain options.
All the coal in question has been
attached by them. This is owned
by the Cochran Coal and Coke
Company and lies in Grant and Cass
districts, The answer of the de
PENDANTS has not yet been made
public. The suit will probably not
be heard until October
Pope Theodorof has brought suit
against a client of his, an Italian
who was recently injured in the M.
q K wreck above town. The client
settled the case and did not settle
with Pope. The latter wants his fee
and has sued for $500 The suit is
to be decided by Justice Shoemaker.
Since B. j. Taylor went away so
hurriedly leaving hiscreditors in the
lurch other claims have been pre-
scented against him One of the
latest to come to light is on the part
OF Jos. Speidell and Company of
Wheeling for $40. 1t is stated
that the residence of Taylor has
81 600 against it in the form of a
mortgage.
A very interesting suit is also
started in connection with raylor's
flight. He bought pair of mules
from Preston county man named
Weaver. He had not paid for the
mules and in the meantime traded
one OF them to Win Gilmore. The
latter wants to retain the mule and
Weaver wants it and not the one for
which Taylor traded. A suit will
result from this.
There was lots of oratofy in con-
nection with the suit of Baker
against Herd for possession of the
store room on High street occupied
by Herd. This case began before
Squire Hayes. A jury was en-
paneled to sit in the case the argu-
mept is still in progress.

Morgantown. W. Va, April 7, 1908.

The enormous proportions to which
the mail order business of the large
city stores has grown within the past
few years is chiefly due to to the ef-
ticient advertising campaigns conduct
ed by the leaders In this line. The
only way TO combat these conditions
is for the local merchant to advertise
his wares. Let his possible patrons
know that he is In business and that
he has the goods to sell and can give
them the advantage OF buying at
home.

Property Owners to have it Widened.

City council has agreed to pave

SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP.
Cured w One Bottle Of Chamberlain's

Cured w One Bottle of Chamberlain's

"When I had an attack of the grip
last winter 1.-THE second one) actually
cured myself with one bottle of Cham
berlain's Congh Remedy, says Frank
w. Perry, Editor OF the Enterprise,
Shortsville, n. Y. "This is the hon
est truth, at times kept from cough
ing myself to pieces by taking tea
spoonful of this remedy, and when the
coughing spell would come on
at night | would take dose
and it seemed that in the brief.
est interval the cough would pass off
and would 60 to sleep perfectly free
from cough and its accompanying
pains; To say that the remedy acted
as a most agreeable surprise is put
ting it very mildly. I had no idea
that it would or could knock out the
grip, simply because I had never tried
1t for such purpose, but it did, and
it seemed with the second attack of
coughing the remedy caused it to not
only be Of less duration, but the pains
were far less severe, and I had not
used the the contents of one bottle
before Mr.. Grip had bid me adieu."

Danger OF Colds and Grip.

The greatest danger from colds and
grip is their resulting in pneumonia.
II reasonable care is used, however,
and Chamberlain s Cough Remedy ia
ken, all danger will be avoided. Among
the tens of thousands who have used
this remedy for these diseases we have
yet to learn of single case having
resulted in pneumonia, whicn shows
conclusively that it is certain pre-
tentative of that dangerous disease.
1t will cure cold or an attack of the
grip in less time than any other treat
ment. 1t is pleasant and safe to take.
