Wheeling, May IL The annual
state convention of the Ancient Or
lder Of Hibernians will be held in the
city this June. No definite arrange
Iments for the big event have YET
been made, but announcement Is
made that preparations win be com.
menced at once. Fully four hund-
red Hibernians are expected to con-
gregate here. They win all be the
guests of the two locals, Park and
Mullen divisions.
The exact date for the great
gathering has not been fixed up till
the present time. However. ii il
understood that the conclavc viii be
held between the FIRST and the mid
die OF the month. Each Of the
divisions throughout tile state will
be represented by at least two dele
gates, and it is certain that from a
large number of the divisions
throngs will flock here.
In the state there are at present
about thirty divisions, all in a most
flourishing condition. Though mo-
tices for the comm affair have not
yet been issued, each of these diyis-
ions will appoint their delegates
within the coming two weeks. R.
+. Murphy, of Parkersburg, the
state president, T. +. Clarkson, Of
Littleton, the state secretary, and
the state treasurer will all be in at
tendance.
The convention viii last three or
four days. Noted speakers from all
parts o fthe state will be present and
discourse. One of the, features Of
the event will be the grand street
parade in which several hundred
Hibernians will march with flying
colors. A sumptYous banquet will.
be the fitting windup of the affair.
Wheeling park seems to be the
only place in the vicinity capable Of
accommodating the large gathering
and this fine resort will in all prob
ability be chosen. Preparations will
be put on foot at the meetings of
both the local divisions to be held in
the close future.

.ARMER'S
DECISION
APPEALED

Last night in the Metropolitan
hotel little trouble occurred that
was aired before Mayor Hariner at
p o'clock this afternoon, a man
named Shaffer, employed in the tin
mill, together with visitor in the
CITY. was arrested for drunkenness in
front of the place.
Shaifer was bleeding from a dam
aged eye that he claimed was given
him in the saloon. The other man
put up but Shaffer was held. The
mayor decided that he santed to
hear all the evidence and had the
bartender, Joe Mcnamara, appear
Mcnamara testified that he was
called to the basement last night to
protect man who was stopping at
the house. This man claimed that
Shaffer or his partner was trying 10
go through his pockets. In the
melee that followed when the at
taches Of the house reached the base
ment, shaffer was hit in the eve.
Shaffer testified that Mcnamara
hit him. He denied trying to touch
the other man. Mcnamara was
called and told of how Shaffer and
another man had King in the base
ment when he went down, but de-
MED striking Shaffer, although he
acknowledged slapping the other
man.
{ King, the man on whom the rob-
berry is alleged to have been tried,
was brought in and he swore that
some one tried to get in his pockets
but was not sure who. He said it
might have been McNemara who hit
the fellow Shaffer, but wouldn't
swear to it.
Mcnamara claims to have known
Shaffer for some time and says he
is full of tricks like the one he at
tempted last night. The mayor af-
ter hearing the evidence said that
there was not sufficient evidence to
hold, shaffr, but that ,shaffer had
sworn that Mcnamara had hit him
and the fact that he was hit iusti-
fled him in fining the latter $500
and costs.
Three witnesses told the mayor
who did strike Shaffer, but he clung
to his decision to fine Mcnamara.
However, an appeal win be made
Immediately and bond was given.
