Woman Killed by Explosion.

Mrs. Thomas f. Barnes was killed
Yesterday in her home in Detroit, Mich,
BY the explosion of a zone FOUNDER
rapid-6re guu cartridge, which, it is sup
posed, she was using for hammer in the
Christmas preparations for her two baby
girls. How the explosion occurred IS
not definitely known, as she was alone
With the children, but tits said by friends
Of Mrs. Barnes that she had used the
cartridge for hammer at other times.
The cartridge had been in the possession
of the Barnes family for some time, and
is said to have been given to Mrs. Barnes
by her brother, William Mayhem, gun
ner in the United States navy. who is
thought to be attached to the United
States torpedo station at Newport News.
The woman's right hand was torn away
at the wrist, her lett hand was mut'lat'
ed, part of the cartridge penetrated her
breast and cut her heart aud lungs, and
Ser back was also cut by part OF the
she'll. Mrs. Barnes had left the children
ia the Kitchen, 50 that they would not
see her preparing Tor the Christmas tree,
which was to be set up in the archway
between the parlor and sitting-room.
Evidently she had been rearranglng the
curtains of the archway so that the can
dies of the tree would not set the cur
tains on fire. Using the cartridge for
tack-hammer she was instantly killed by
the explosion that resulted.

Tho Iondnn Fog.

A dispatch from London says that
such complete disorganization OF rail
road traffic and shipping as has resulted
from the present fog has been unknown
for many years. A dismal pail is
spread over the greater part of the king
dom, causing enormous business losses
and threatening TO deprive thousands Of
their Christmas parcels. Statisticisns
estimate that the losses in a single day
of such a fogin London alone amount
to fully 5000, 600. Only two vessels
entered the port Of London Thursd,y, a
condition OF affairs such as has not oc-
CURED for 90 years. The mouth Of be
river is crammed with vessels loaded
with perishable foodstufls. The streets
of London present remarkable scenes.
Nothing is visible except link boys
torches and The occasional fare OF big
creosote lights, which the authorities are
beginning to employ to assist traffic.
Phantom voices mingle with the uaceas'
ing whistling of omnibus and tramway
drivers, whilst at points like Trafalgar
Square and the Hyde Park corner are
agglomerations of vehicles Of every de-
scriptiou held up by the police and close
locked for hours. Nearly everybody !:
suffering from headache, which the
doctors attribute to the fog.

Ivncbers Ancr stratton.

Erod S,ra,top alias Floyd Stolling,
was taken from the Jail at Logan, W..
Va Yesterday morning before daylight
and conducted 10 Huntington on a
special car under heavy guard to pre-
vent lyncbing. 1t was reported that a
mob was forming at Capmansvllle Tor
the purpose of going to Logan to hang
him. Ballard Stolling, hslf-broiher
of the accused man. has also been locked
up. While it is not thought the latter
is guilty of assisting in the murder, u IS
supposed that he knows something OF
the crime. and the authorities will keep
him in Jail awaiting developments.
At CapmansyilIe a mob Of probably
50 people was at the station, but the
engineer went through the little town at
full speed. while those aboard gol under
the seats for fear that volley OF bullets
might be fred into the car. Neither OF
the prisoners will talk OF the murder
further than to say that they are inno-
cent. but it if believed that Ballard
StoliDg, the half-brOthcr OF the alleged
murderer, will make confession soon
of what he knows Of the case. The
authorities are still searching for an un-
known man believed to be Implicated,
who boarded the train at Capmansvlile
the morning after the murder, having
purchased tickel for Huntington. The
trial OF the accused will begin at Logan
about the middle Of January.

Probably a Fatal Blow.

As the result CT quarrel at Berry
vile Tuesday night about 10 o'clock,

of that place, lies unconscious at his
home with wound in his head, and
Rein Carlisle, youth nineteen years of
age, is in the Berryvillc Jail, where he
will be held to wait the outcome OF
KrombliDg's injuries. Carlisle, 1t Is
said, picked up brick and without
warning hurled it at Mr.. Krombling.
1t struck the old man on the head and
he fell unconscious. Yesterday afternoon
the injured man was still unconscious
and the attending physician stated that
there is little chance of his recovery.
Carlisle was arrested yesterday morning
bv Sheriff SmallwOod and several dep
uties and taken TO the Berryville Jail.
The officers were walking by the pris-
oner's side with the arm of each linked
in his, when Carlisle asked to be re-
leased, saying he would accompany the
officers without trouble. No sooner had
they let 90 their hold when he made a
bold dash for liberty. Sheriff Smallwood
and his deputies fred at the retreating
figure. and with bullets whistling about
his head Carlisle came to stop. The
throwing of the brick was theoutcome OF
a quarrel the two had early Tuesday,
when Kromblng put Carlisle out of his
shoe shop. This is said to have angered
the Young man and Tuesday night be
Law in wait for the old shoemaker and
made the attack on him with the brick

that he is safe.

necessary by the fact that streams

tically destroyed by the placing in the

catching fish, at or near the mouth
of the respective streams. Section
$40 Of the criminal code permits the
use of such dams, traps, nets, seines,
Or other devices for catching fish,
provided one-third Of the channel of
the creek at low water is left unob-

to be afforded by that section would
be more effective if the use Of dams,
nets, traps, seines and other devices
was absolutely prohibited, and the
catching of fish limited to hook and

petition that the law be amended in
