SHOT DEAD
DETECTIVE WAS KILLED WHILE
HELPING A MAN TO FIND A
RUNAWAY WIFE.

BOSTON, Mass, August George
L.. Fraser, 40 years old, private de
tective connected with a Boston agen
cy, was shot and instantly killed
Tuesday night by Joseph Evans, aged
80, while seeking evidence for Allen
]. Barber, whose wife, Gertrude c.
Barber, was said to be living with
Evans.
Yesterday, Barber, who lives in
Woonsocket, came to Boston in
search of his wife. who left her home
last September.
In company with three detectives
and couple of police officers, Barber
called at the Evans home in Somer
vile. The door was opened by Evans
and while he and Barber were con
versing Frazer forced his way into
the hall. A scufiie followed between
Fraser and Evans. The former was
getting the best of the argument when
Evans suddenly whipped a 32.calibre
revolver from his hip pocket, and
placing 1t against Fraser's breast
shot him dead. Evans was immediate
ly arrested.

The city of Warrington comes up
smiling with 20-cent reduction In
the levy for municipal purposes, the
common council having determined
upon such decrease at a meeting on
Monday night. This. in addition to
the reductions already made, makes
Warrington the banner locality In
the county In tax reduction, the saw.
ing being an even five dollars on the
thousand in the municipality, as
against $3.50 on the thousand in Lin.
coin district and $500 in the city Of
Fairmont. This is certainly a mag.
nificent showing. and that notwith.
standing the fact that Warrington
kept its levy for the teachers fund at
the high rate of co cents on the hun.
dred and made reduction of only
five cents in its building fund levy,
reducing 1t from 65 to GO cents. When
the Warrington people get their tax
tickets and find the amount to be paid
lower to the extent of five dollar
bill on the thousand, they will Ger.
tainly say the Democrats have been
wrong on this tax question and the
Republicans right. It Is all right to
theorize as to this or that after the
fashion of the anti-tax reformers, but
an absolute and material reduction in
taxes is what the reformers were aim.

AS found in news item in another
column, the farmer is faring best in
the matter Of reassessment under the
new law. The report Of the real es-
tate assessors in Braxton county
shows an increase Of 200 per cent. in
farm lands, 1913 per cent. in coal and
277 per cent. in town lots. To show
how that will benefit the masses the
total amount of realty valuation must
be taken into consideration. For In.
stance, in Braxton county, the valua.
ton of lands for next years books Is
S3,92S,5S7. on the basis Of the 200 per
cent. increase. while the valuation on
coal, with much larger proportion
ate increase, is only $432,141, and all
town properties amount to but $780,
165. Thus while the reduction in
taxes will be greater on the individ-
ual farmer, yet as class the tillers
OF the soil will pay vastly more in the
aggregate than the few coal owners
and city property holders, and there
fore the latter classes, being more
able to pay, ought not to object If
their taxes are not reduced as much
as those of the farmer. Counting the
practical elimination Of State taxes
and the great reductions in the rate OF
county, district and municipal levies,
owing to the vast increase in valua.
tons and the bringing to light of enor.
nous hidden wealth heretofore es.
Gaping taxation, we believe all prop
erty owners will share in the equita.
BILE distribution Of the burden to a
certain extent, but 1t is absolutely Ger.
tain that the farmer and small prop
erty owner will be relieved of much
of the heavy burden Of which he has
heretofore borne an undue share.

TRIED TO KILL
THREE WOMEN
DRUNKEN ENGINEER IN PITTS
BURG FIRED FIVE SHOTS AT
HIS WIFE YESTERDAY.

PITTSBURG. Pa, August 2.-"My
God! Don't kill mother, kill mel"
With this sacrificial offer from his
wife, Daniel Darling, an engineer,
withdrew revolver he was holding
over his mother-in-law's heart, and
holding his wife in a vise-lIke grip
against fence in the rear of their
home at 1912 River avenue, Alleghe-
ny, last evening. he poured the con-
tents of a 32-calibre revolver into her
body. The woman broke from her
husbands grasp several times, but
Darling succeeded in overtaking her
and held her around the neck while
he sent bullet to its mark. Five
shots were fired. One missed the fu-
gitive. Mrs. Darling is at the ALE.
sheny General Hospital in critical
condition and Darling is at Central
police station. The prisoner seems
TO be in drunken stupor, but Police
Superintendent John Glenn said he
was feigning., Jealousy is given as the
cause for the shooting.
The attempted killing seems to
have been deliberately planned, and
the plans seems to have comprehended
triple killing. That there were not
three victims was due to a defect in
loading the pistol and to the swift
ness with which one of the victims es.
capped by way of window from the
drunk-crazed man.

If the Fairmont West Virglnian sue
ceeds in driving out of the Republican
party the insurgents and all others
whom 1t does not like, the West vir.
ginian will be part of very weak
minority acknowledging Register.
The Register knows as well as we
do that the insurgents" do not have
to be driven out of the Republican
party, as they are already out. The
Register is no fool, and therefore
knows how loyal the insurgents"
have been and are still to John Corn
well and Ran Stalnaker-knows how
they tried to defeat Governor Dawson
and how they succeeded in defeating
Mr.. j. S. Lakin in the Second district.
The Register, being perfectly aware
of all this, should not forget itself

WEEKLY CROP
BULLETIN
For the Week Ending Monday, July
81, 1905.

Clear weather with moderately
warm days and rather cool nights
generally prevailed during the week.
The maximum temperatures ranged
from 70 to SO degrees, and the mini
mum temperatures, from 40 to 6S de.
grees. Light, scattered showers fell
on Saturday. The mean temperature
averaged about degrees per day be.
low the normal and the precipitation
was markedly deficient. The sun
shine was about normal.
The clear, cool weather was Just
what was needed for harvesting. and
this work has been pushed vigorously
during the week. Hay harvest is
about half done; the yield is only
fair. and considerable has been more
or less damaged by wet weather Dat
cutting is in full progress; oats were
damaged somewhat by lodging, but
promise 10 make a large yield. Wheat
and rye are in stack, and some thrash
ing is being done with fair yield and
fine quality. Corn is doing well, con-
sidering that considerable was not
properly cultivated. Potatoes are not
as good as expected. but will make a
good yield: digging has already be-
gun. Pastures are holding up we'll,
an stock are in fine condition. Gar
dens, buckwheat, millet and COW peas
are doing well. Turnips are being
sown. and some blowing is also being
done. Fruit is generally a failure; ap-
pies from present indications promise
to make less than half crop. A con-
tinuation of clear. cool weather is
needed for the completion of harvest
ing.
