DOPE JOINTS.

Clarksburg has a much better
class of saloons than Petersburg,
if what the Parkersburg papers say
about the latter is true. The past
few months some very sensational
robberies have occurredo in Parkers-
burg saloons. The victims were first
given knockout drops, dope and so
forth. Now it is stated the authori-
ties there have become aroused to the
extent of resolving to break up dope
selling and giving. They will go
after the saloons and drug stores.
In Clarksburg so far as is known
dope is not sold in any saloon; but
1t is obtained at some of the drug
stores by the fends. It is suggested
and ought to be insisted upon that
the city officials here go after these
drug stores and compel them to stop
the sale of this deadly stuff. The
public should not lay the blame at
the doors of the saloon but should
rightly inform themselves on the
subject and give some of the drug
stores the credit or diseredit.
The Parkersburg situation in this
respect is given as follows by one of
the papers there:
"The movement against the wine
rooms, liquor violators, and particu-
iarly against several "dope joints
known by the authorities to exist
will be given an impetus as the re-
suit of a conference held by Mayor
Leonard. Prosecutor Laird, and
Chief of Police Oliver. Drastic
measures will be resorted to in or
der to prevent a recurrence of the
sensational occurrences of the past
few months.
at was determined by the author
tiles that in all cases where a rob-
berry has been committed and where
it is found that drugs were admin
istered the propritetors of the saloon
where such unlawful acts occurred
will be summoned and will be COM
PEELED to tell what he knows about
the transaction.
"There are two places said one
of the officers, where we now have
evidence that dope is administered.
We will get the evidence and will
send those people over. If there is
a recurrence of the offense they will
be brought into court and will be
compelled to testify. If they re-
fuse we will make them defendants
and will prosecute them to the eX-
tent of the law"
s'It is also stated that the officers
will attempt to round up several
drug stores which have been selling
drugs, it is said, to the gang which
has been pulling off the shady trans
actions. The prosecutor for the
county and the city authorities will
proceed together and every effort
will be made to rid the city Of the
nuisance"

The dog poisoner seems to be
abroad in the land again. 1t Is our
candid opinion that he ought to
have dog button himself. he Is
more dangerous than his victims and
much more offensive. Again, he is
mean and low enough not to get
caught. but, if he ever is caught.
there will certainly be something in
teresting doing. 1t is gently sug-
gcsted that he refrain from further
meanness of this sort, else he may
get into trouble.

The work of the deaconess, Miss
Jones at Golf Methodist church, is
commendable and she and the church
should be given hearty support. 1t
NAV be that the nature of the work
is not altogether understood by the
public. The church through this
department is helping the poor and
destitute and Miss Jones has charge
of the work. She receives clothing
frri+s iellies and other articles at
tbe church every Wednesday even
inc and at any othr time convenient
to the donor, and she familiarizes
herself with the field and gives these
to the needy and worthy. 1t is a
good work and promises to accomP-

many a person, who would otherwise
be miserable. The Telegram hopes

voices and at a time, when persons

the zeal and effort they show. They

RoBS AND STAYS ON TRAIN
Drunken Hold-Up Kills, Wounds and
Plumbers in Excursion
Coaches.

Louisiana, Mo-, Aug. 7.-While a
Chicago & Alton excursion train, from
Bloomington, ILL.,, to Kansas City, was
crossing the Mississippi river here
Saturday, man on board shot and
killed Marion Warner, of Secor, ILL.,;
shot and wounded woman, and
robbed third passenger. After a
hard fight the man was arrested and
placed in Jail here. He refused to
give his name. Warner was asleep
when the man came through the train
asking people if they were armed. He
awoke Warner and asked him if he
had a revolver. Receiving a negative
reply, it is stated, he Immediately shot
Warner dead. The passengers were
panic stricken, and when the hold-up
demanded Of passenger, whose name
has not been learned. that he empty
his satchel, emphasizing his order with
flourish of his revolver, the passen-
ger hastily poured out the contents of
his satchel and the hold-up took pos
session. The robber then fired at
random in the car, and one woman
was shot through the arm.
Sunday the murderer was identified
as Eugene Pikeman, of Hopedale, Ill.
Pikeman says that he recently re-
turned from the Philippines, where he
served in the army, and that he was
on his way to join the army again
when the tragedy occurred.

with Theft in Grand Jury
True Bill,

Milwaukee, Aug. 5.-Charles F. Pfis-
ter, one of the wealthiest and most
prominent citizens of Milwaukee, was
indicted by the grand jury of Milwau-
kee county here, charged with steal
ing $4,000 belonging to the Wisconsin
Rendering company of this city. At the
same time indictments were returned
against four others, the charge Lf

Milwaukee. Aug. 7.-Charles F. Pts
ter. who was indicted by the grand jury
Friday, charged with larceny as bailee
Of $4,000, has issued defiance to his
accusers. which was practically an in
vitation to come forward at once and
prove their case. His action took the
shape of civil suit commenced against
the Wisconsin Rendering company. Fred
S. Gross. Joseph Schaaf, R. Schoyer
Charles Friedrich and Henry ]. Kiflilea
These defendants were members of the
rendering company, or guarantors of
the company's notes, and Mr.. Pfister
demands the return of $6,542 said to
be due him.
The suit was followed almost imme-
diately by voluntary statement from
Fred G. Gross, president of the render
ing company, emphatically denying
that Mr.. Pfister owes the company any
money, and also denying ever having
made any charges against Mr.. Pfister
before the grand jury of having any
knowledge of information on which
such an indictment could be based.

terminated, in obedience to procla-

lowed the receipt form DR.. White dur
ing the day Of several kilograms which
showed that the citizens of New Orleans
had promised their hearty and unre-
stricted cooperation in the work to be
undertaken by the federal government,
and would meet certain financial require
ments imposed by the marine hospital
service as preliminary to assuming the
responsibility.

10 friend the president expressed
his fear that the ENJOYS might find in
superable obstacles at Portsmouth, i'm

belligerents. The failure of his plan
for an armistice has brought discour-
agement, but there was nothing to
cloud for an instant the success of this
particular day.
The actual meeting of the represen-
tatives of the two enemies in the ori-
ent was singularly dramatic scene.
Fearing the strain Of formal speech,
Mr.. Roosevelt at once began introduce
ing the visitors in all impromptu man
ner, moving from one to the other.
There was no holding back on either
side. Baron komura and Mr. Takahira
had prepared short speeches. Just

Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 8.-M. Witte,

country. arrived here at 11:15 O'Clock
Monday night from Boston. M. Witte
was taken at once to the Hotel Went
worth in one of the state department S
big red automobiles. He retired soon
after he had arrived, saying he had
spent busy day sightseeing in Bos-
ton, and desired to get good rest be-
fore the beginning of the conference to-
