.HORSEMAN OF
THE WORLD
VIII Be Seen With Buffalo BiII's
Wild West snow Here
September IL.

With Buffalo Bilrs Wild West,
which Will exhibit in Clarksburg on
Tuesday, Sept. II, will be seen rep
resentative horsemen from the eques-
trian nations of the world and to
see all of them in their native land
one would be compelled to visit a
dozen nations of the earth. AS
sembled, therefore, in one entertain
ment, their various methods in the
saddle provided an object lesson
which one may we'll be glad to take
advantage of. Contrasted in one en-
tertainment will be the reckless dar-
ing of the Russian Cossack, the state.
ly grace of the Royal English Lane
ers, the careless, ease of the Ameri-
can cowboy and the native abandon
of the Indian in riding their fast
moving horses. Saddle methods of
Bedouin Arab, the South American
Gauchos, Mexican Vaqueros, German
Cuirassiers and the Japanese, will
be illustrated by genuine representa-
tives Of those classes and nationali-
ties. 1t would require months of
travel to witness these native horse
men. but Buralo Bill brings them
to America and presents them in in
teresting display, and offers them -
public view in single entertain
ment. In these automobile days i.
is thus interesting to note how
thoroughly and prominently the
horse plays his part in the various
nations of the earthh. In the Wild
West entertainment the horse is not
alone shown as burden-bearer; he
performs various feats of adeptness
in "high-school" displays, engages In
quadrille, jumps over tible where
diners are partaking of a meal and
does many other feats which show
how much he is admired as one OF
the noblest of animals. In the stir
ring battle scenes he is a most Inn
portant factor. showing in mimic
warfare how essential he was to the
success of our army in subduing' the
barbaric Redman and opening his
domain to the uses of civilization.

MAN DRAGGED
Several Blocks by Street Car But
Fortunately Escapes
Injury.

A passenger dragging all the way
down from the Merchants bank cor
ner to the Elk creek bridge on Main
street was the exciting scene pre-
sented to passengers on a street car
and to pedestrians last night about 10
o'clock. The man attempted to
board the car after it started, but
failed to get foothold. He clung
to the car with his hands and was
dragged all the way down to the
bridge before the car stopped. A
crowd of excited people gave chase,
looking for the man to be ground
to pieces, but he fortunately escaped
all injury. He climbed to "a seat,
when the car stopped. and thought
nothing more of the incident.

of the international police force. AL
though it is said such occupation
will be merely provisional. there is
a strong feeling that absolute an
archy is reigning in Morocco and
means this occupation of the ports
may be long drawn out, perhaps
lasting indefinitely and will culminate
in virtual military control of the
Morossan empire. Signatory powers
have all agreed that the situation
demanded that France and Spain po-
lice Morocco themselves.

HOLD Up BOY ~ STREET
OF THE CITY nv BROAD DAY LIGH
Young Hart is the Victim of Two
Highwaymcn, Who EIude the
Police and Escape.
HoLD-uP on HEwEs STREET.
Is ROBBED of Gold Watch and Money
After Highwaymen Hit
Him on Head.

George Hart. is years old, OF
Ocean Mines, was held up and rob,
bed of gold watch and all the
money he had in broad daylight in
Hewes street near the swager ho-
tel Saturday forenoon by two other
young men who succeeded in elud-
ing policemen.
teamster who saw the holdup
from his wagon some distance away
said that the two highwaymen hit
Hart over the head with a wagon
spoke taken from the Siers carri-
age factorypremises and one of them
held the boy until the other robbed
him. Giving the boy push che
two robbers took TO their heels ana
made for the Baltimore & Ohio
passenger station.
AS soon as he recovered Hart ran
for a policeman and found Lieuten-
ant Nicholos Wbyte, telling him
about the hold up. Lieutenant
White and Policeman Farmer imme-
diately went to the railroad station
with Hart for the purpose of ar
resting the two highwaymen but at
ter searching the premises there
and going through the coaches OF
the trains standing on the tracks,
they failed to find them. Hart was
, >9nsiderably excited and wanted Il
get home as soon as possible al.
would not remain with the officers
and aid them in Identifying the two
robbers. The boy took the accom-
mediation for his home.
All the description of the high
waymen Hart could furnish the po-
licemen was that one robber wore
a blue suit of clothes and black
hat while the other one had ON a
dark suit of clothes and dirty
Panama hat. They were young men
about 25 or 26 years old.
Hart was not injured to any ex-
tent by the blow from the wagon
wheel spoke but it dazed him at the
time and raised a painful bump on
his Uranium. The gold watch he
was robbed of cost Hart $17 and 81
was all the money he had with him.
The police force is on the outlook for
the two men who held Hart up and
they may nab them.
