NAN LAST MARCH 4
Woman Claims They We're Married
in Virginia Nine Years Ago
May Be Case of Bigamy For the
Grand Jury To Investigate.

Henrietta S. Thomas, colored, got
a warrant from Squire NJ. S. Riley
Monday night against her husband.
William Thomas, colored, who works
sat the Waldo, and Constable Guy
Merritt, arrested him. She charged
him with wilful neglect, failure and
refusal to provide her and their
child reasonable support the past
five months.
AT two O'Clock in the afternoon
Justice Riley heard the case and
convicted Thomas of the charge pre-
ferred against him, and fixed his
bond at 800 to support the woman
and child six months. In default
he was committed to jail.
The woman claimed they were
married in Virginia nine years ago
and that he left home about six
months ago, deserting her in a deli
cate condition; also that the child
was but five months old.
Thomas denied being the woman's
husband and stated that his only
lawful wife is Affie Oder, whom he
married here last March.
The one who made the complaint
"ontended that he lied about not be-
ing married to her, and that he mar
ried the Oder woman and ran off
with her the same night and did not
return until two or three months
ago.
Thomas acknowledged to having
lived with the complainant and did
not deny that he is the father of the
child. His story is that, when they
came out here from Virginia, they
we're strangers and that he thought
it a kindness to take care of the
woman.
If the woman's story be correct.
the grand jury will have case of
bigamy to investigate.

VIII Not Recede From the Sakha-

tocols Are Not Yet Completed
No Session Was Held Today.

BY Associated Press.
Portsmouth, n. H., Aug. 22-It
has been decided to postpone until
tomorrow at 8 80 o'clock a. m. the
meeting of the peace conference.
which was to have taken place this
afternoon. The failure of the sec
retaries to complete the protocol
was given as the reason.
Another reason for the postpone
ment of the peace conference is that
Witte had not received a reply from
the Emperor. 1t is understood that
at present he is without power to
consent to conceding Sahhalin.
The Japanese are willing to give
time for deliberation by the Emper-
or.
There is strong intimation that
the japanese are prepared to make
a proposition, when the conference
reassemble, but nothing to show
that they are ready to recede from
the Sakhalin and indemnity articles
A personal representative of
President Roosevelt is in conference
with the Russian peace ENJOYS at the

who he is.

MR.. BASEL
TELLS OF TRIP

Hon. John Basel has returned
from Europe, and, in response to a
question of the reporter as to his trip
says that he spent the principal part
of his tour abroad in France and
Switzerland in the Rhone Valley.
His travel was by automobile with
his host. Mr.. Watson, and that he
took in large number of the cities
and towns of Southeastern France
and the adjoining parts of Switzer-
land, having stayed over week at
the great watering place of AK les
Bains, which is wonderfully inter
eSting place, both by reason of its
natural features and from the fact
that it is the famous resort of many
of the nobility and wealthy classes
Of Europe, as well as the United
States, to the qualification of whose
wants and tastes large sums OF
money have been spent in the way
of splendid hotels, fine bath houses
and various forms of amusement.
Some of its medicinal waters are
very fine, and we're used by the Ro-
mans two thousand years ago, and
a splendid arch of solid masonry
still stands as relic of their former
occupancy of the place.
Mr.. Bassel also spent little over
4 week at Chamounix, at the foot OF
Mont Blanc, which has also become
Il favorite resort, some seventy or
eighty hotels being already built
there, and number of other fine
ones being in course of construction
He says that the roads of France
approach perfection, and that, es-
pecially through the Alpine region,
the highways have been constructed
plmost without regard to cost, and
shat the automobile in which he
Travelled assembled heights of five
thousand feet just as easily as the
motor would have run upon the
main street of Clarksburg. He says
that upon some of the roads they
Travelled in the mountain regions
they passed through tunnels cut
through solid rock of from three to
four hundred feet in length, and
that in other places side cuts had
been made through solid granite 30
to so feet in height.
Mr.. Basel says the people of the
part of France through which he
passed are wonderfully industrious,
thrifty and seem to be enjoying
reasonable degree of prosperity. and
that in this respect the condition of
the laboring element is better than
the same element in England. moro
particularly in the city of London
where he says there are thousands of
unemployed.

GAS COMP ANY WINS
in LATEST CONTEST
After Surveyors Located Lines and
Corners in Pipeline Controversy,
Company Finds Gate Of Alley Chain
ed And Locked Attorneys Go to
Scene and Bring about an Adjustment

The gates are not even ajar IN the
pipeline controversy at Wilsonburg
between Mrs. James II. Morrison
and the Hutton Gas Company, but
have been closed and chained and
locked. This is the phase that pre-
sented itself between 2 and 8 O'Clock
Monday evening Surveyors on
either side had been busy in the af-
ternoon locating corners and boun-
diaries of lots and an alley way. 1t
is stated that they agreed, or prac-
tically did so, and that Mrs. Nor
rison then took the matter into her
own hands. She got trace chains
and padlocks and chained and locked
the gate. While on the roadside
was the gas company's team with
one of the well contractors, barred
completely from entering upon the
alley grounds, and Mrs. Morrison
was sitting near the gate serenely
satisfied that there was to be no in
trusion that evening, and, from the
way Contractor J. v Carter had his
arms folded, patiently waiting for
directions from the company it was
evident that he had no cotton of try
ing to open the gate.
Tuesday morning the gate was
still locked and not until the fore
noon was we'll gone was 1t opened.
The contractors were there, members
of the gas company were on the
grounds and an array of lawyers
brought up the crowd.
After much parleying among
them all and some sage advise by
ounsel. an adjustment of the differ
noes was arrived at and the gate
was flung, wide open with an inyi-
lation of welcome.
The incident closed with pleas
amt smiles on every ones couRte-
nance, and it is asserted that the gas
company won out this time.
