Boston, April 27.-The Horse market was
teady during last week. Values were
firm but the demand was shade less ac-
tive This spring the trade has been
more brisk from the country than from
the local consumption. which is unusual
Horses through the New England states
are rather scarce. and few find their way
to Boston for sale, being readily sold at
home at good values. The large supplies
of fresh Western horses received weekly
are bought at very high prices and deal.

disposals, specially in the sale of the
heavy draft horses, even at the high
prices obtained Second hand horses in
good condition sell readily at varying

BELL IS NO BELL

So Rules Judge Kimball, When
Harry Keeling Is Taken Into
Court.

When is q bell not a bell. was the
intricate question presented TO Judge
KimbaH in Police Court this morning.
when Harry Keeling was. ~aI1aigned FOR
riding a bicycle, which a4ording to the
allegation OF the policeman who arrest

warning pedestrians.
KEELING claimed that he had complied
with the law as ne had a bell attached
10 his bicycle, upon request OF his
honor, exhibited q Bell 20 the court.
why this is not a bell exclaimed his
honor, after a careful scrutiny. though
Il has the appearance Of that article. q

VOLUME XIV
H. ROY WAUGH
Has Been appointed Pardon AttOr.
neu Bu Governor GldssGOGk--
Mr.. Livelu 10 be Assistant At
tOrnSu General.

Two important changes were
made in the appointive offices of
the state last week. Pardon At
torney Frank Lively resign,ng to
accept the position of assistant
attorney general aud the appoint
ment by Governor Glasscock of
III. Roy Waugh of Buckhannon as
pardon attorney.
Mr.. Lively was rendered the
,poeition in the attorney generals
office by General Conley several
weeks ago and although he ac-
.cepted q short time afterward, he
did not make his forma! resigna
'tion as pardon attorney until
Governor Glasscock was ready to
anuouncs the appointment of his
successor.
The cffice that Mr.. Lively en-
'ters is a new one, created by the
isst Legislature in bill increas-
ing tho salary of the attorney gen
,eral and enlarging his dutiee.
The bill provides for two aesist
ants instead Of one. Judge D.
f. Matthews of Huntington hne
been assistant attorney for sew
eral years aud he will retain his
position.
The promotion of Mr.. Lively is
.merited. He is lawyer of great
ability and his new position will
enable him to make greater use
of his ability.
Mr.. Waugh, the new pardon at
toruey, will assume the duties of
his office on April /. He is a
young man Of great ability and it
is believed that the governors 8
choice will give general satlsfac-
tion. As member of the last
house Of delegates, Mr.. Waugh
proved himself to be a real lead
er.

The Payne Bill.

1t is evident that the Payne
tariff bill will not receive the cor
dial support of the West Virgin
ians in congress.
With the exception Of Gaines,
who is member of the commit
tee, and therefore in honor
bound 10 supp rt the bill, it is
likely every mem ber will aid IN
the effort to secure changes. AT
least two general features will
prove Objectionable in the senate,
the bond issue and the inherit
ance tax.
Regarding the bond Issue Sena.
tor Elklns and other leaders are
known to be opposed and point to
the history of the Cleveland ad.
ministrstlon as a result of this
method of providing revenue. AL.
ready there are indications that
this proposition will not be in
sisted upon.
Although President Taft has
adopted the idea of his predeces-
sor relative to the inheritance tax
and made it the only specific rec
ommendation relative to the
tariff-there is considerable sen
timent that this subject be left to
the states. Governor Glasscock
has strongly urged this view up
on the West Virginia delegation
and there is reason to believe il
will he adopted.
The coal, lumber and steel
schedules are not satisfactory to
this state. How seriously they
will affect the business interests
is not certain, but it is safe to
predict these matters will be the
subject of a determined effort to
bring about q greater measure of
protection.
While steel does not 80 directly
concern West Virginia, any Grip
pling of this great industry les.

About two O'Clock yesterday af-

west of the First National Bank

by j. u. Bowman as a lwelling
was discovered To be on fire. The
alarm was given and the lire ap
parstus was soon on the ground
and the blaze extinguished, but no,
before the struc ure wa. badly dam
aged. The building belonged 10
Hoard Bros. and as it was an old
structure was probably not worth
more than one hundred and fifty
dollars.
There was no one at home when
the tire was discovered and no
household goode were saved excep,
sewing machine, lounge, a
chair and \ few other articles Of lit.
tie value.
Mr.. Floyd Hoard, who was seen
by reporter of this paper Just af
ter the fire, did not know whether
the building was insured or not
Mr.. Bowman carried no insurance
on his household goods. His loss
is one hundred and fifty dollars. The
fire probably originated from de.
fective fue, as coal was used for
fuel, although this is only SUPPOSE
tion, as, before stated, no one wa.
in the building when the fire wa.
first discovered.
