rRy Telegraph TO The rribune.l

tBy Telegraph 10 The Trfbune.l
Cincinnati. Sept. 2e-United States Marshal
Vivian J. Fagin. appointed by President Mo
Kinley and reappointed by President Roosevelt,
had two indictments returned against him to-
day by the grand jury. for '1ntimidating an
election officer and the other for assault and
battery"
Marshal Tagin was evidently expecting some
thing of the kind. as he was at the courthouse
when the jury reported with General B. R.
Cowen the aged Clerk of the United States Dis
triot Court, who signed Fagin's bond as surety
for ST. 900. which covered both cases The al
legged offences were committed at the recent
Republican primaries.
Marshal Fagin split off from the George B.
Cox following in the campaign of last fall and
has antsgonized his old leader openly and ener-
getically ever since. The Department at Wash
ington has been considering other charges
against Fagin for several weeks. AS Fagin is
understood to have Secretary Taft's friendship
the fight for and against him has been especially
interesting

TO DISSOLVE STANDARD.
Proceedings against Oil Company
bg attorney General.
rBy Telegraph TO The Tribune

Cincinnati. Sept 2e.-Private advices received
here by independent OIL men to-day were to the
effect that Attorney General Moody is about TO
institute proceedings against the Standard on
Company.
The action will be based on information gath
cred by Commissioner Garfield IN this and other
states, and will be for the purpose of dissolving
the Standard company. The methods OF giving
rebates to favorite agents will be exposed and
the case promises to rival the Northern securt-
ties case, three years ago.
The news was a surprise TO the Independents
here. The Sherman Antitrust law is to be IN
voked as a ground for the dissolution OF the
Standard. based not only on the evidence that 1t
is guilty OF discrimination In the price OF oil.
but also on the allegations that other consti-
tutionaI laws have been violated In addition TO
the Interstate law.

On the other hand Hughes is not only popular with

the farmers AS class, rural Democrats will bolt
Hearst The feeling against him here is not con-
hned TO the conservatives. There are Democrats OF
ell kinds who say that the Buffalo convention put a
CUCKOO OF anarchism into the nest Of the Demo-
cratic BIRD 10 suck her eggs. and they openly state
that they feel duly bound to forsako their party az
the coming election.
There Is no evidence that Hears, will make in
roads on tho Republican vote. There is locally no
apparent source whore Hearst NAV mako nm th.

OF cohesion among the Democrats who refuse to nc

Long age the silly odium that at

bu. in the days when popular notion

old maid records show that there was
no age limit for matrimonial hopes.
For instance, so long ago as 1774
Miss Jane Hodgson, of Stepney, Eng
land, was welded to Henry Hutton, of
the same place. An account of the
affair continues:
"The bride, who had once been not
ed for her beauty, and had, SO it is
said, refused lovers by the score, had
reached her ninty-sccond summer, and
the Bridegroom, who had vanity Of
fered his hand and heart seventy years
earlier, was two years older"
More remarkable was the wedding
of John Jackson and Annie Bates ON
March %, 1876, the 101 birthday Of
the Bridegroom, who was three years
older than the birdie. 1t was in his
fourth marriage within two years, and
10000 persons escorted the couple to
the church.

Graves, of Balcock-on-Herts, married

Yorkshire belle who had so many
suitors she could not choose among
them, told one Of the most persistent
that if he would ask he fifty years
later she would marry him. He wait

her word.
A celebrated French artist who fell
in love III lis student days, was told
by the maiden that she would never

trees, carrying an AK on his shoulder,
and a small terrier dog following at
his heels, according to the Boston Her.

which the dog gave chase, and drove
him into a stone wall, where action
commenced at once. "Abe IS" sympa-
thies being with the dog, he decided to
take hand and help him. So, put
ting himself in position, with the AK
above the dog, he waited for the ex-
traction Of the chuck. Soon an oppor-
tunity offered, and "Abe" struck,
but at the same time the woodchuck
gathered himself up and pulled the
dog in far enough for him to receive
the blow, and the dog was killed. ..
For years after, in relating the story
"Abe" would always add: ."And

what thet woodchuck killed him.
