A Judges Opinion of Saloonkeepers

PARKERsBURG, w. VA, January IS
Especial correspondence To-day Judge
Alton G. Dayton, in the federal court
in session in this city, made startling
statement regarding the character of
saloonkeepers. He said:
II have said and | again proclaim it,
that no man can be engaged in the sale
of liquor and be honest. He will take
the last dollar of a drunken young
man, kick him out and send him to
drunkard's grave. They study dishon-
esty, and come into court and perjure
themselves to avoid punishment"

OLD TURTLE
 WAS FOUND
By Tommy Barker With a Name Or --Amazlah GookIn Claims His Father Lost t. Blgs Barker
 & Amaziah Fit & Fit

Little Tommy Barker, while fishing up Snake Criek tother day came acrosst turtle which was about foot acrosst the back, and must of weighed in the naborhood of IS lbs. Tommy, he thought he would like to have the tur- tie for a pet, so he lugged it home, and it is a wonder he didn't get a leg or arm bit offen him while doing so, too. Bige Barker, Tommy's dad, discovered on the shell of the turtle the follering : "Amaziah Gookin, 1s4S," which had evil dently been cut on the turtle with a pen knife 60 years ago by old Amaziah Gookin, who has been dead and gone for 10 these many years. How old this turtle is nobody has no idee, but Bige says he calkilates it might be 400 years old like as not Bige says he reekons that if a person would live as long as a turtle, life would become all-hred tiresome.
 Amaziah Cookin, IT,, who is Amaziah Gookin, Sr.'s son, heared about Bige havin this old turtle with his fathers s name on 1t, so he called on Bige and said he guessed he'd lug that turtle home and keep it for eoorosity. Bige told Amaziah that he guessed he wouldn't do nothin of the kind, being as his son Tommy had found the turtle and he reckoned 1t belonged to him, being as 1t had been handed down from father to son as you might say. Amaziah started to pick up the turtle which was in the front yard, but Bige give him a push and then both men elinched and rassled around all over Mrs. Barker's flower bed. Finally Bige. he tripped Amaziah up, and then both fell down so hard it nearly knocked the wind outen 'em. The ridilIlus part of the affair was that they landed on top of the turtle, wich made a grab and caught Amaziah by the ankle and held on like grim death. Amaziah thot it was Bige who was bitin him and hol- lered "Enough"l as loud as he could holler. Then Bige let loose of him, but the turtle didn't and had to be pried loose
 Amaziah then started for home mad der than a wet hen. He told Bige to keep the dinged ole turtle, and he hoped it would take a couple of fingers of for Bige before he got through with it.

While driving home from Snake Bend last Tuesday during thundei shower, Jow Hines was nearly struck by Tightening.
