jamestown Exposition. Sept. is

Radford, has been a most Interested
visitor to the jamestown ter-centen-
nial After spending several DAYS
here and making a critical review OF
the exposition In full the governor
expressed himself a. being well
pleased. In fact he was so favora-
bly, impressed that he gave out the
following signed statement 10 your
correspondent:
The jamestown exposition should
be OF especial interest 10 South west
Nirginians for, aside from IT'S artis-
tic and industrial exhibitions. n has
the great naval displays and water
scenes which make n so attractive TO
people from mountainous sections
"a feature which has been wanting
in all other fairs.
owing to the fact that other ex-
positions had more acreage and so
much larger cities TO give patron
age. 1t has been my fear that our
exposition would have to depend
chiefly on its great feature ana that
this alone would be our pride and
boast; but grand and magnificent as
this is, there are numerous other at
fractions of which any Virglnian
may well be proud
with its buildings of unusual
beauty OF architecture. holding their
vast display of exhibits of our gov
eminent and common country shown
IN a most artistic and interesting
manner; its long line Of state build
ing patterned principally on the
homes of almost every state in the
Union and its wealth OF otbor ,t-
fractions. there is store of profit
and pleasure TO anyone who goes
within the honeysuckle-and-cr
rambler-covered walls of the Colon

BAUMGARTEN AFTER RENT.
Sues Thomas Matthews in District
Court for Sf.O53.

Joseph Baumgarten has brought suit in
the district court against Thomas
Matthews of Salt Lake. who several
months ago operated a candy store on
Mr.. Baumgarten's property at 122 Main
street. for S1.053 as part of the rent due
on the store for five years at 500 per
month. according to the terms of the
lease taken on the property by Matthews.
The trial Of the suit will probably re-
suit in opening up the controversy which
arose between Matthews and the insur-
ance companies with whom he had taken
policies on his store upon the refusal of
the latter to pay up on the burning down
of the store last July. The insurance
men claimed at the time that the fire was
of incendiary origin and refused to pay
the policy. The complaint filed by Mr.
Baumgarten alleges that the store was
rented to Matt Jews on Feb. Is. 1906. for
five years at $500 per month That under
the lease Matthews was 10 keep the
building and premises in good condition
and make all necessary repairs Mr.

Mrs. Celia McGready-Nelson, wife Of

her divorce and let her out of that

Judge Henderson is member of the
school board The other person re-
ferred TO by Attorney Burton is be-
Heved TO be William Newman. also a
member of the school board, who il was
expected during the trial would be
called to testify as to Principal Mel
sons good character.
Former Judge Burton opened the
final arguments in behalf of Mrs Nell
son. He reviewed the evidence in the
case and endeavored to show that
Principal Nelson's behavior toward his
wife has been such as to make living
with him practically impossible.
Judge H. P. Henderson argued for
Principal Nelson. and he was followed
by Attorney A J. Weber for the plain
tiff. Former Judge Burton closed the
arguments for Mrs. Nelson.
The announcement that Mrs. Nelson
would waive her claim to alimony i'm
case she is granted a divorce, came as
a complete surprise to those who have
followed the Nelson case. as in her
complaint Mrs. Nelson asks for $1,000
alimony.
