eral Office for the management Of the

some new departments. namely, the
ready-to-wear, carpet and wall paper
departments. These last named are
new features of the store and they

ANOTHER FAKE
IS EXPOSED
Contractor White Refutes the False
Story Published by
the Fakirs.

Building Contractor ]. E. White
called at the Telegram Office Thurs
day morning and refuted emphatical-
ly the article in the News the day
before in reference to him and his
men. He denounces as false that
his carpenters are employed with the
understanding that they are to vote
for Mr.. Grille. Mr.. White says his
carpenters have been working for
him quite long time and that he
has no new men, nor has he made
any recent contract or agreement
with his men. Some of them have
been in his employ five years ano
none less than year. He states
that he never tells any of his men

chant Has Transformed
His Store.

N. Baker has converted his cloth
ing store on Main street into a large
department store. The building has
been thoroughly remodeled and i'm
proved until it is uptodate in every
particular. New floors, new walls,
new ceilings. new stairways, new fix-
lures, handsome new front, new
counters, in fact every thing needed
at big store, have been installed,
making a complete transformation
most pleasing to the eye.
Mr.. Baker spared no cost, no pains
to make his store one of the leading
ones in the city, and has succeeded
admirably as all the many who pat
ronize his store now know. Before
and while the improvements were
being made he ran or his old stock
entirely and installed a large and
complete new stock, which also adds
materfa1Iy &c the attractiveness OF
the store.
On the first door are found large
lines Of clothing. dry goods and mo-
tions Of every kind and description,
all latest In character ana design,
and these departments are arranged

In Afttdayits Presented to Court for
the Arguments for appointment
OF Lunacy Commission.
[By Associated Press


NEW YORK, March 21-Seven
alienists employed by District At
torney Jerome this morning gave af-
fidavits for presentation to Justice
Fitzgerald in the argument this af-
ternoon for the appointment of
commission in lunacy to examine
Harry x. Thaw.
They declared in the affidavits that
Thaw is suffering from a form of
paranoia and that if he is discharged
he would be dangerous to the public
peace and safety. and that it is rea-
sonably certain he will not recover.
Thaw had conference with coun-
sci Peabody today over the question
as to whether he will be permitted
to hear the arguments this after
noon. Thaw wanted to attend the
hearing but Peabody did not prom
Use him the desired permission.
Thaw's counsel is of the opinion that
he ought not to hear the arguments.

SONS OF BOONE
ARE ORGANIZED
BY Number of Young Boys Here
With Very conmendabIe OBJ
iect and Purpose.

This is the name of spirited club
organized at Clarksburg in the past
month. It consists of small boys un-
der the age of thirteen years, and
its object is to keep very fresh the
memory and example of the great
pioneer hero after whom it is named
incidentally the following arts, vir-
tues and reforms are pushed prom
inently into practice, viz: throwing
the. tomahawk. shooting with bow
and arrows. living in a wigwam,
hunting and fishing, collecting Indian
relics, preserving the forests and
game, studying natural history and
wearing buckskin breeches.
The following names are now on
the roll Of membership: Mac Brady,
Hugh starkey. Carlton Wood, James
Weese, Port Reichard, Lyal Powell,
Harold Goodman and also the name
of Mr.. H. T. Houston, with the title
OF Honorary President, in conse-
quence Of his sympathy with the SEN
Aments and purposes of the organ
fzation.
A large round, red badge is worn
by the members, which is ornament
ed with the picture Of hatchet, log
cabin. coon skin, arrow head, wig
wan. bark canoe, Indian pipe and
other designs of like nature. The
club meets each Wednesday night at
the home of some member. On last
night It was entertained at the home
OF Mr.. Houston where a pleasant
evening was spent with Indian stor-
les, music, sweet cakes and much
talk over the aims and possibilities
OF the order. Candidates for mem
bership are elected by the unani-
mons vote OF active members. and
the club will probably grow TO the
number of twenty or twenty-five in
the near future. oncers are known
by such names as Daniel Boone Kit
Carson, Lewis wetzel, Davie Crockett,
Beidon and other scouts and heroes
Of pioneer days. Lodge entertain
ment and many useful and beneficial
results are expected and as long as
the boys eliminate the scalping feat
ure and some few other Indian pro-
pensities there is nothing objection
able about such an organization a.
they have created.

Cfies Executive Threatens the Po-
lice Officers With His
Official Club.
aEANTs no DISMISS THEM
Fer Voting the Ticket of Their
Choice But Fails to Reach
Them for Himself

Harvey w. Harmer, mayor of this
city. Is trying to use his Office to In
timidate the voters OF Clarksburg.
The Telegram makes this declaration
without fear of successful contradic-
tion and can back it up good and
stropg, indeed, convincingly and
xonSictingly strong.
Mayor Harmer in his hunger for
public Office wants to succeed him
self and has set out to drive every
nossible city official to his support.
The methods he employees are vari-
ous, but among the most dastardly
that have yet come to the attention
of fiae Telegram is his attempt to
dntimidate Policeman John Nelson,
eosoted. A few highs ago, accord
ang 70 the positive and indignant
statement made by Nelson, Mayor
HaEmer approached him and asked
what his position and attitude were
san the present campaign and what
they would be election day.
Nelson replied that he was Re
aHlsllcan. but that did not satisfy the
aagpr who then insisted that he
should define his position. officer
Nelson replied that he was Repub-
aicau and intended to vote the Re
publican ticket.
Il
Mayor Harmer then proceeded to
mold club over his head. He ut
sered the threat against him that
there would be some changes on the
police force after the election.
This threat had very different ef-
aeet from what Mayor Harmer in
tended. 1t did not frighten Nelson.
10 the contrary it made him right
eousIy indignant and mountains
could not move him from his deter
mination to vote the Republican
aielSet.
It is said that other members OF
the police forme have been asked
ahe same question by the mayor.

CHILD BURWEDEXPERTS Say I
QUITE BADL YI'TFzANI'S CRAZY
Little Mabel Maysc at Adamston and
Several Others Are Ter
ribIy Burned.

Mabel, the ten-year-old daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Michael Mayse, of
Adamston. was fearfully burned at.
their home at 8 O'Clock Thursday
morning. and her great grandmother,
grandmother and mother were also
painfully burned in extinguishing the
blaze and rescuing the child from
burning to death.
The little girl arose from her bed
at that hour and in passing the CRATE
fire ner nigntgown fgntted from the
fire in the CRATE. Her screams
brought her great grandmother, Mrs.
Kidd. her grandmother, Mrs. j. e.
Boyles. and her mother to her aid.
They tore the burning garment off
of her but in doing so their hands
were burned to crisp. The child
was burned from feet to her elbows
and her hair was badly burned, too,
but the blaze did not strike her face.
Her body was horribly burned.
A physician was summoned from
Clarksburg and medical attention
was given to all those who received
burns. Her condition is critical

PRISONERS ESCAPE
HARMER'S FAULT
aiayor Provided a Way for a Sick
and Unruly Prisoner to Escape
From Punishment.

The unjust attack made by the
Harmer paper on oficer John Nell
son yesterday now goes to Mayor
Harmer himself and the only one
that suffers by it is Mr.. Harmer
himself. for the blame, If there Is
any, in the case attaches to him and
him alone. The fellow spoken of
was arrested and sent. to jail three
days. Officer Nelson was instructed
by the mayor to work him on the
streets. He did SO one day. The
next day the fellow stated that he
was sick and declined to go to work.
The mayor then resorted to the
barbarous practice of having the
ball and chain put on him and COM
PEELED the officers to take him to
work. This ball and chain were nut
on to torture sick human being
and at the mayors command. The
mayor also instructed Officers Nell
son and Joyce to leave him on the
street at the noon hour, II he re-
fused to work. They carried out his
Instructions and when they retur lcd
from dinner, the prisoner and bali
and chain were gone. If the mayor
had not told them to leave him there
at the noon hour, he would not hsv /,
escaped. So, after all it was Mayor
Harmer's fault.
