TWO YEARS IN THE PENITEllIIlHl
TACKLED THE WRONG MAN.
Two Young Fellows Got Worst of It
at Hands Of Captain MauIsby.


at Hands Of Captain MauIsby.
On last Thursday evening Captain
T. A. Maulsby had a rather interest
ing experience with two young men
which one of them at least will like
" remember for while. They were
both drinking and one of them was
leaning against the Captains house
vomiting when the gallant old sol
dier appeared on the porch and order
ed them to leave there. Instead Of
doing that, however, the young fellow
proceeded to climb the steps to fight
Captain Maulsby. But the marks on
the young mans face indicate that a
crutch can do duty when properly
handled. This could be made a pret'
ty long story, but Captain Maulsby
doesn't want any special notoriety in
1t, but he does want the people to
know how he was treated by the young
fellows who afterwards proved to be
Aries Miller and Allen Morrison, who
were each fined $25 for their rowdy'
ism.

THE RICHEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD TO-DAY
BECAME BRIDE OF PENNILESS GERMAN NOBLE
Wheeling Mystery Was Cleared by
Identification Of Dead Man Yester-
day--Name Was Harry Mackley

WHEELING, Oct. 15.-Harry Bigler
Meckley is the name Of the man whose
body was found on the city wharf one
week ago last Friday morning.
This fact was positively proven Sun
day afternoon, when his sister, Mrs.
James Dawson of No. 37O5 Harrison
street, Bellaire. identified the body as
that Of her brother, after it has been
exhumed in Mt. Zion cemetery in the
presence of Mrs. Dawson, her husband,
and other relatives and friends. Prose-
cutting Attorney Chas. J Schuck, Chief
Clemans and Coroner Rogers were also
present at the time.
Before going to the cemetery, how
ever Mrs. Dawson identified the body
from a picture taken after II had been
placed in the casket, and which was
shown her at police headquarters.
This picture was taken at the instance
of the Bishops after the remains had
been prepared for burial at their
home at No. $3.50 Chapllne street last
Monday.
Mrs. Davidson is firm in the belief
that her brother committed suicide.
She states that he was au inveterate
cigarette smoker, despondent and
often given to drink when in such a
mood. On Saturday. as previously
published, Mrs. Davidson identified
the ring found on the dead man, say
ing that 1t was a present from Miss
Beatrice Frahr, a lady friend of Neck

ley, and whose home is in Apollo, Pa.
Other belongings Of the dead man were
also identified by Mrs. Dawson at the
Office of the coroner.
They Were Orphans.
The body of Meckley was exhumed
about $3.50 o'clock Sunday afternoon,
and at the first glance Mrs Dawson
said: Eyes, that is Harry" She then
broke down in weeping, and turned
away from the scene. After IT had
been viewed by Mr.. Dawson, and sew
eral other persans, who were personal
Iy acquainted with the deceased, it
was again lowered into the grave. The
procedure was not in the nature OF q
funeral, but simply an investigation
sulely for the purpose Of identifying
the body.
After leaving the cemetery, the Davi.
sons conferred with the Bishops to
see what could be done about leaving
the body purchased by the latter for
their son, Harry Bishop, who proved
to be alive. IL is also understood that
the Davisons will assume obligations
incurred both in the purchase of the
lot and the burial, and If matters can
be so arranged. and body Of the unfor-
tunate young man will remain in the
present grave. The inquest papers,
which had been changed to read "un-
known" will now be changed to the
real name of the deceased by the cor
oner.

 tating on the billboards and says he
 hung up handsome Autographs of prize
 cows and race horses wherever he could find a bare wall, from Dry Gulch to Jones' Hollow. If 10000 people
 don't come to the fair from the south country it will not be because they didn't hear about it. When he was not busy spreading paste he kept his human megaphone at work and if the | second annual fair does not prove to be the biggest show on earth MT DObbs will be recognized in the south i hereafter as the biggest liar on earth His reputation is at stake and he fully ! expects the fair management will re- deem it.
