OF fog off Sandy Hook the steel
freighter George of the White Star
line rammed and sank the Panama
line steamer Finance, outward bound

OF the passengers lost, one was a
woman, Miss Irene Campbell of Pan
ANA, who chung practically to the rail
of the sinking vessel and could not
be persuaded to release her hold, nor
were the men who manned the small
boats able forcibly to remove her.
She was seen clinging determinedly
as the vessel was engulfed, William
H. Todd, third assistant engineer,
Jumped overheard and was lost. When
a roll call of the passengers of the
Finance was called it was found that

so inclined. The court convicted him

primary election as issued by the
county committee. =
The secretary of the Kanawha
county committee filed a brief his
tory of the action of his committee
from January 20 to date. !,
1t was agreed that either side
should have an hour for presenting
the claims of Mr.. scherr and the
county committee.
j. w. vandervort and Judge
Thomas Brown. of Parkersburg;.
Frank Reynolds, of Keyser; and
Grant Hall, OF Charleston, made adj
dresses in behalf of Mr.. scherr, while
Attorney T. G. Townsend appeared
for the county committee. The for.
mer. attempted to point out the IL
legality of the call, because it showed
preference for Kanawha county
candidates for state offices other than
governor. They also objected to the
amount OF the assessment on candi-
dates for governor, as we'll as to the
date, claiming the latter was too
early. They preferred conventions
or other methods of choosing the
delegates rather than that the candi-
date who carried the county be ex-
tended the privilege of naming the
delegates.
To accomplish their end before the
committee the speakers for Mr..
scherr pictured thankfully probable
disaster to the party, II the call in
Kanawha county was not modified
so as to suit Mr.. scherr.
Attorney Townsend spoke to the
point in a concise manner showing
the case ought to be thrown out OF
court on demurrer as the complain
ant really had no case, since he had
shown no evidence of fraud, nor in
jury to himself or his chances, and
as no other state candidate had made
the slightest objection to the call.
Mr.. Scherr next made a brief ad-
dress asking for fairness only and
square deal, having the impression
that he had been in some manner
treated badly in Kanawha county.
The state committee then went in
to executive session and shortly after
decided by a vote of s to
4 to sustain the Kanawha county
In connection with the meeting it
is a matter of note that Chairman
woodward received a telegram from
w. H. Hearne, one of the candidates
for governor informing him he was
perfectly satisfied with the action Of
the Ksnawha county committee.

more of his wife. MAKES more of his

FIRST COUNTY FAIR
in TWENTY YEARS
Good Beginning for Permanent Annual
County Exhibition
People Turn Out and are Well Pleased With the
Exhibits and Grounds.
Automobile Racing a New Feature.

After lapse of many years Hand
county opened up her first annual
fair Tuesday under the auspices of
the new fair association, and to say
that it was a grand success is only
voicing a general sentiment. Of
course things were new and not fully
systematized, but details, rules, etc.
can be corrected. The prime fact
of success is sufficient for the first
time, and a generous public will eX-
cuse minor details.
A county fair was held south of
the city in the early days, beginning
in 1887, and it was a good exhibition
for a new country. After two or
three years, however, the hard times
and discouragements of pioneer days
cooled the ardor of even those won
derfully enterprising people who
placed Hand county on the map, the
ldlI was dDdlluOIlCu dllu CllS Slouluo
passed into private hands.
The new fair was started late this
year and 40 acres of ground pur-
chased off the Corbett farm between
Miller and st. Lawrence, where the
county association has begun the
building of a good and permanent
fair grounds. A fine regulation
half mile race track was built, and
one years time will make it as good
as the best. The best grand stand
for its size in the state was erected,
seating 600 people. A good start
was also made for barns, stalls, pens
fencing, ETC., to be added to as re-
quired. In fact the society has laid
a splendid foundation for the future
to build upon.
The grounds consist of 40 acres,
and cost sos per acre, the track cost
81 900 and the grand stand $1,000.
The location is close to the G. & N.
w. Ry track where thousands of
people passing on the through trains
will see and help advertise Hand
county.
