The Hubbard Meeting.

AS stated yesterday. Fairmont was
in gay attire for the reception of the
great and gallant tax reform cham
pion of Ohio county, the Hon. w. P.
Hubbard. This brainy man of honest
conviction drove home the truth to
his hearers in such a way that they
realize the true situation in this State
as never before. He emphasized the
moral side of the tax question, plac-
ing the tax dodger in the same cate
CORY as the debt lodged. He showed
how little the Democrats deawith the
tax laws as whole and how much they
have to say around the edges and
fringes, evading the most beneficent
features altogether. He pointed out
quite clearly that the fight now made
on the new tax laws is exactly in
line with the record of Democrats
on every other public question, hence
Republican voters will not be de-
ceived. Taking the speech in its en-
tirety, it was the effort of states
man, while those of the Democratic
speakers here recently were utter
ances of the veriest demagogues

NORMAL SCHOOL.
HAS ADJOURNED UNTIL NEXT
WEDNES DAY-SEVERAL STU
DENTS WILL GO HOME
TO VOTE.

The Normal School closed yester.
day until next Wednesday,. Several
of the students wanted to go home 10
vote and the faculty decided to give
them plenty of time.
No literary meetings will be held
this evening and the building has a
deserted appearance.
What might have turned out TO be
a bad accident was averted at tie
Normal last night because of a leak
ing radiator. The valve which shuts
off the water from the boilers in the
basement is weak and last night the
pressure forced it open. The water
filed the boilers and rose through the
steam pipes and radiators to the
third story where radiator which
had burst at previous time allowed
it to flow out into the, building, The
paper in the Literature room was ru-
ined and the finish in couple of 9th
er rooms was slightly damaged. Had
the fire been large and more steam
had been in the chest an explosion
would have undoubtedly taken place.
In that case the building would have
been totally wrecked.
T1.e valve failed once before and
will no longer be trusted.

AMERICANS AND
ITALIANS FIGHT
4 SEVEN SHOOTER AND ST.
LETTOES PLAY HAVOC in
AN ARRAY
-(By Publishers' Press.l

ROCHESTER, N. Y, Nov. 4.-One
American armed with a seven shoot
er, fought bloody battle against a
score of frenzied Italian laborers in
swamp one mile east OF the village
of Egypt, three miles southeast of
Fairport at seven O'Clock this morn
ing The American, whose name is
Dean, of Tennessee, and who is fore
man of gang of laborers at work on
the tracks Of the New Rochester and
Syracuse electric railway, killed one
Italian and mortaI1y wounded another
before he sank back in his tracks,
bleeding from hundred or more cuts
inflicted by stilettoes and razors in
the hands of the blood-thirsty foreign
ers. Dean was fatally injured, and
his death is expected at any moment
In addition to the italian who was
killed and the one fatally injured, an
other of the laborers is missing. It
is thought he was shot and craw1ed
oft into the swamp, where he will be
found later.
News of the riot reached the Office
of Sheriff Bailey by telephone this
morning half an hour after a farmer
who witnessed the ARRAY. ran
breathlessly into the telephone Office
at sBushnells Basin and informed the
storekeeper of the affair.
Sheriff Bailey and Deputies Haw-
ley, Abbott and Birdsa1l, together
with Coroner T. A. killip and re-
porter, left at 500 on Rochester
and Eastern car for the scene of the
battle.
When the officers reached the
swamp where the fight occurred,
their gaze met terrible scene.

the middle of the track, his face and
soaked in his own blood. A

UNGRATEFUL
HUSBANDS ACT
LEAVES A DEVOTED WIFE IN A
STRANGE LAND AND PEN
NILESS.

AS the result of marrying an I'M
grateful husband, Mrs. Carl Pander is
alone in this city without money or
friends. He left this morning and
cannot be located.
The story goes that some months
ago the woman, who is said to be
quite beautiful, left her luxurious
home in Germany and ran away with
Pander. Her father was wealthy and
kept her in money even after she had
run away. They came to this city
about three months ago. Pander went
to the Citizens Dollar Savings Bank
some time ago and deposited 5000
This morning he went to the bank and
drew it out, his signature being recog-
ness with the bank and nothing was
thought of it.
Along toward noon to-day Mrs.
Pander went to the bank and learned
The truth. The money was hers but
had been put in the bank in his hume
and was drawn out likewise. Then
The woman started out to locate the
man. She wanted warrant but first
went to the local station to see If she
could learn where he had gone. AT
two O'Clock this afternoon she had not
returned and nothing more could be
learned. She told that it was likely
that he went to sPittsburg as they had
stayed there a few weeks before
coming here. ;;ss

ENDED HIS LIFE

John II. Banning, of No. S03 South
Broome street, Wilmington, teller in the
National Bank of Delaware, and son of
Henry G. Banning, president of the insti-
tuition, either accidentally or by design
killed himself Sunday night, by shooting
himself in the head.
Mr.. Banning was reclining on couch
in an upstairs room when his wife left
him few moments before. Before she
had reached any distance from his room
she was startled by the loud report of
revolver, and fastening back, she found
her husband writhing in the agonies OF
death. The PROSTATE form of the banker
was stretched on the couch and gaping
wound in the temple and smoking re-
volver told of the tragedy.
Mr.. Banning would have been Al years
old the last of this month, and has been
connected with the bank for fourteen
years. He is survived by his wife.
The excellence of his financial condition
and congenially of his home life causes
relatives to think the affair was purely
accidental.
The shooting occurred about o'clock
and shortly after that time DR.. Willard
Springer arrived. The latter did all he
could for the wounded man, who died
about half an hour after the shooting.

THE MOON

Whether or not there really is vegeta-
ton on the moons surface is a matter of
some dispute. Professor Pickering be-
lieves that there is, -basing his belief upon
observations OF what he has called "vari-
ale spots portions OF which exhibit a
rapid darkening, beginning shortly after
sunrise, followed by an eqnally rapid fad
ing towards sunset, accompanied by a
diniinution in size as they darken. From
the peculiar character of the variation OBJ
served Professor Pickering concludes
That organic life resembling vegetation is
lie cnIy simple explanation of the
changes which he has observed. Con-
sideraiing the long lunar day as minia-
tire terrestrial year the theory of such
life becomes colorado. he vegetation,
il there be any. shoots up, fourislies and
dies in lunar day just as it grows and
withers on the earth in terrestrial year.

THE TRUE INDIAN SUMMER

The true Indian summer season begins
in early November. 1t is the Summer
of All Saints" November 1st or Sum
mer of st. Martini" November 9Th. 1t is
most beautifully described in Longfellow's
"Eyangeline. The typical Indian Sum-
mer, say. the Springfield Mass Repub-
lican, comes when the leaves have all
fallen, and a lovely illusion possesses the
earth, as if 'twere enchanted. A delicate
haze folds the landscap; sound OF life come
fromfar away, muffled as if heard in
dream and charm rests on woodland and
meadow and marshes, like none other that
comes to the autumn. October is beauti-
full, truly, but it brings not the Indian
Summer. Too subtle, perhaps, is the diff
ference for every perception to grasp it.
Some years the Indian Summer lasts but
a day or few days; some years it may
stay a month, but these yisitations are
rare.
