WOULDN'T THAT JAR you?
Funny Man Of the Observer Tells How
Much lie Don't Know.

The following taken from the
Washington Observer will be read
with amusement by every one here
who knows anything about the facts
of the case:
1t is iflcant fact that this year
no game has heen arranged with The
West Virginia University team. The
relations now existing between the
two institutions are not the best and
the local people believe they have re.
ceived the worst of it.
In base ball last year w. & j. sent
team to the southern Institution and
snatched victory in the face OF terri
BILE odds, the character OF which is
known and which does not need re-
peating. Then In foot ball the West
Virginia University played a trick
which was denounced the country over
and the details in this case do not re-
quire repetition.
1t is well according to the opinions Of
the majority OF base ball fans in
Washington that West Virginia has
been barred and much cleaner sport
and sport that that will prove much
more satisfactory will be the result.
Washington and jefferson would be
anything but wise il they agreed to
play the southern collegians 10 any
kind Of sport until some explanation
of previous tactics is made. The To-
cal baseball schedule without this
university will be much stronger and
more gratifying 10 every respect.

BRESHELL DISMISSED.
State Failed to Establish Case
for Breaking Quarantine.
Facts Brought Ont Before Justice
Hayes at Hearing Yesterday Bres-
hell's Admission After Evidence Was
CIosed-Pecnliar Situation.

From Wednesdays Daily
Adam Breshell, who was arrested
several days ago on warrant charg-
ing him with breaking quarantine,
was given a preliminary hearing be-
fore Squire Hayes yesterday afternoon
and dismissed for lack of evidence
against him.
1t was charged that Breshell, whose
home is on Grant avenue, had been
going In and out of bis house and
mingling with people, while his chill
dren were Ill Of scarlet fever, and the
house was under quarantine. 1t seems
that the family had been guaranteed
for some time, when physician in
formed Breshell that there was no
longer any danger OF spreading the
contagion. The health officers bad
not raised the quarantine or disin-
fected the house Some one tore the
scarlet fever placard down. When
this was brought TO the attention of
the health officers, a guard was pre-
[cured and the quarantine maintained.
Information was made against Rres-
hell by several parties, and the health
officer had the warrant issued The
parties who made the information
either failed to appear before the jus
tice, or failed to recall any specific in
stance In which Breshell broke quar-
antlne. There was no evidence to
warrant holding him for the grand
jury, Squire Hayes ruling that he did
not have flual jurisdiction.
Breshell was not put on the stand.
No evidence was introduced By the de-
Tense. Ia reviewing the case, States
Attorney Goodwin said be had no
doubt Breshell had been In aud out OF
his house many times during the quar-
antine, but admitted that the state
had failed to prove II. Breshell here
Interrupted, "Yes, l have been, but
not since the guard was stationed
there,'
This, OF course, was virtually
confession, and while made 10 hearing
OF the Court, could not be used against
him, not being introduced as evil
dence.

TWELVE BILLS APPROVED.
Blizzard and Dayton Actually
Admit Merit Exists

ted by the Tax Commission
They Fall Out About Which will
Make Corporations Pay Their Share
of Burdens.
1t is probable that the harmony
committee recently appointed to
agree on some form of tax reform
may get together amicably. There
are 81 bills in the report of the tax
commission. At first all of these
were condemned by the sdherelts OF
the corporations OF the state. Now
events have SO shaped themselves
that Dayton and Blizzard who re-
present the opponents of tax reform
have agreed to allow IL OF them TO
stand as drafted.
There are but two noints OF differ
ence between these two members and
Sturgiss and Hubbard. The con
ference at Wheeling showed that
the two wings of the committee are
about ready to flop together. There
are but two things on which there
is much divergence of opinion. This
is in regard to the state tax and
about taxing corporations for oil,
gas and coal productions.
Sturgiss and Hubbard are for the
bill doing away with the entire state
tax. Their opponents want to re
duce it from 35 to 25 cents on the
hundred. There is a difference of
opinion as to the amount of license
TO be imposed on liquor dealers and
it is probable that this bill will be
submitted in blank. Sturgiss and
Hubbard want it fixed at $500 and
the others want it at $500. 1t is
now $3.50.
Another matter for disagreement
is in regard to that taxing the pro-
duction Of coal, oil and gas and tax
ing certain other professions. This
is opposed with as much vehhmence
by Blizzard and Dayton and advc-
Gated with as much enthusiasm by
the other members of the committee
Another item over which there is a
dispute is in the matter of assess
ments. Sturgiss aud Hubbard want
these made every year The others
want to make it every five wears.
The whole correspondence be-,
tween the two factions viii be made
public in day or so. 1t is claimed
by Mr.. Sturgiss that Dayton and
Blizzard have not submitted any
definite suggestions nor have they
drafted a single bill in which their
ideas are.incorporated. They have
dealt in vague and evasive terms
and the onus of the whole thing has
fallen on himself and Hubbard
They say that they will come out of
the contest with the tax commission
bills practically intacs.
