Father Wilson will spend the month
of July visiting among his relatives
and friends in his native country This
is his first visit to the Emerald Isle
since he left it in 1872, shortly after
his "rdination to the priesthood. That
he will thoroughly enjoy revisiting the
scenes of his youth after an absence
of SO years may well be taken for
granted.
On June "a Father Wilson will at
tend an ordination in the city of Dub
lin, which date is the seth anniversary
of his own ordination there and which
viii recall scenes of happy days of
yore.
Leaving Ireland about the first OF

ranean and expects to reach here
about September goth.
This is not only Father Wilson's
first visit to his native land but his
first vacation of any consequence
since he came to America &c years
ago; therefore he has we'll earned
this vacation and respite from the
arduous labors of his pastorate. That
he may have a pleasant visit abroad
and safe return home will be the
fond hope of his devoted parishioners
and the wish of the people generally
of Martinsburg.

WARMERS BODY CLAIMED
Disinterred and Taken To. r4is Home
In Scranton For EurisI-Reward
Offered.

The first news of the death Of John,
| Warner, who was found dead in the.
C. & O. canal near Weyerton. ON
Monday and is supposed to have been,
murdered was conveyed to the broth
er OF the dead man, David Warner. of
Scranton, through a newspaper ac-.
count. Mr.. Warner Immediately left
for Weverton arriving there on Thurs
day accompanied by a friend of John
Warner, with whom he worked at
boiler making. Mr.. Warner had the
body of his brother disinterred in the.
cemetery at Knoxville, where ii was
buried by the county, and shipped to.
Scranton for interment in the family
lot. The body was taken to Hagers-
town on the b. & o. train at night
accompanied by Mr.. Warner and his
friend and taken north
Mr.. Warner felt positive that his
brother had been murdered and offei-
ed reward Of $500 for the arrest an.
conviction of the guilty parties. He
stated that his brother owned real
estate in Scranton to the value OF
$4,000 and has wife and mother
living there. He said his brother had
been out of employment and had left
home in search of work though he
had not seen him for two years The,
man who accompanied Mr.. Warner
had worked with the dead man in the
shops about two months ago.
After losing his job Warner start
ed out to seek work elsewhere. Both
men stated that Warner was physic-
al giant and that he could cope with
a half dozen men in fair encounter.
They felt sure that he had been struck
down unawares and had no chance to
defend himself They both identified
the body, the brother being visibly az
fected. Mr.. Warner betrayed the ex-
pense Of burial of the body by the
county.
While there are no direct clews to
the death of Warner suspicion is
strong and several men are under sur.
Vigilance. 1t is asserted that the case
will be thoroughly sifted.
A. B. Bingham, of Weverton, on
Thursday, found pair of cuffs and
collar bearing the initials 81. W." in
his haymow. They are believed to
have belonged to Warner, but it is
not known how they got in the stable.
The collar was II 1-2 in size showing
that the owner was a large man. The
articles may develop clew of i'm
portance.
Justice Younkins turned over to
Mr.. Warner the papers and other ar
ticles found in the pockets of his
brothers clothing. Mr.. Warner has a
brother in,law living in Scranton who

POTATO GUM ON sTAMP5.
Uncle Sam Tries to Guard the Heath
of Stamp Lickers.

Every time a person ticks a u. S.
postage stamp he gets taste of
sweet potato. The gum with which
the stamps are backed is made from
that succulent vegetable because
Uncle Sans lieutenants consider it
the most harmless preparation of the
sort.
While Uncle Sam tries to make the
lot of the stamp Ticker as innocuous
as possible, he does not advise MAX
ing meal of his sweet potato gum.
The whole process of gum making
and applying is made as clean as pos
sible, but there is yet another item
to be considered.
"A sheet of postage stamps is hand
led good many times before it even
leaves the bureau where it is made.
If you must lick any of your stamps
pick out those from the middle of the
sheet. The corner ones have gone
through the fingers of half a dozen
or more counters, not to mention the
perforators and the separators and
the rest.

SCHERR GAINS ON SWISHER
Secured Majority of the Delegates
Selected at Conventions Held
Last Week.

AS a result OF the republican mass
conventions and primaries held the
past week, Arnold G. Scherr has made
net gain Of SO votes and c. w.
Swisher OF II.
Scherr has practically swept all the
counties in the interior OF the state,
but he suffered severe blow in
Wayne county on Saturday, where the
county convention instructed the six
teen delegates OF that county for
Swisher. Wayne had been counted on
with absolute confidence by the Scherr
people. In fact, as result OF the pri-
maries held two weeks ago, 1t was
considered certain that the county
convention would instruct for Scherr,
and the 16 votes of Wayne were
counted in the Scherr column.
Charges OF fraud and bribery are free
~ made by the Scherr people as to
the result in Wayne, but however
brought about, the vote of that county
it appears will be in the Swisher
column.
Seherr made a full day Saturday in
Hancock and Braxton, carrying both
of those counties solidly, thereby
gaining % votes. Other results Of the
week We're: Webster, six for Scherr;
Pocahontas, seven for Scherr and one
for Swisher; and Richie II for
Scherr. The following table gives as
nearly as can be estimated, the
strength of the candidates:

Architect George Hancock takes
occasion to attack Mr.. Little, the
Slope candidate for the senate,
thru a communication in the Grand
Forks Herald. People through the
state generally will remember Mr..
Hancock as a choleric individual,
given to using bad words, and who
was very angry when some very sim
pie and innocent inquiries were made
with regard to architecture of certain
buildings in Fargo. Mr.. Hancock's
line Of argument consists of limit
ed assortment of cuss words and q
torrent of billingsgate, in the stencil
and filth of which. his enemy is sup
posed to leave the field, for the same
reason that the judicious pedestrian
gets out of the way of polecat.

After the Minot convention has
been held, and the stalwart control
of that convention has been proven
by vote of two Or more to one, the
Grand Forks Herald will have to ex-
plain to those of it's subscribers who
take the paper to get the news, and
not advise as to how to conduct
themselves, their businesses and
their politics, why it deliberately and
Wilfully misrepresented to them the
facts with reference to the political
situation. It is eminently proper
for the Herald to take any view of
the political situation that will graft
fly its own desires and harmonic
with its own conscience, but it is
eminently unfair for the Herald to
deliberately, and solely for political
effect, to deceive it's readers as to
the status Of the delegates to Minot
1t must be extremely distasteful fol
the Herald force with the instincts
of the newspaper world well develop
ed, to be forced deliberately to falsi
fly the record for the sake of seekins
to obtain some political advantage
The real truth will be made to ap
pear at the Minot convention and i
might as well be admitted now, ever
with a wry face.
