WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY CAP. TAIN DIES, FOLLOWING
 BLOW ON HEAD.
MURDER CHARGE IS MADE
Umpire Tells of Affair as He Saw It. and Faculty Member Sheds Slight Side Light on
 Rough Game.

Wheeling, w. Va, Nov. 15.-A war rant charging Thomas Mccoy, right end of the Bethany college football team, with murder in connection with the death of Capt. Rudolph Munk of the West Virginia university team, has been issued. Munk suffered inju. rles in the game between the two teams here Saturday from which he died within five hours without regain. ing consciousness.
 The testimony on which the war. rant was issued was furnished by Homer N. Young, a Pittsburg attor- ney, who umpired the game. Young said the ball was on Bethany's 40. yard line when Munk started down the field for interference. He testi- fled:
 Munk Slugsed by Mccoy.
 He was not near the player with the ball Munk was met by Mccoy. who ran toward Munk as they both were running down the field. Ten yards behind the scrimmage line, when Munk was in front, Mccoy struck him in the 2ck of his head with his fist. Munk fell and McCoy fell also, but quickly regained his feet, looked at Munk and started off the field
 Umpire Young said the blow ap- peared to him as clearly intentional and he ordered Mccoy out of the game.
 Death Caused by Blood CIot.
 The autopsy disclosed the fact that Munks death was caused by blood clot at the base of his brain and could not have been the result of a former injury.
 Mccoy has gone to his home in Can ton, O. He had left college this fall without notifying the faculty and had not played on the team for two weeks.
 President Cramblett of Bethany, who saw the game, said that he was un- aware that Mccoy was to play Sat urday.
 The game was rough one," he said and several times our coaches asked the officials to stop the slug ging The Morgantown players were the chief offenders and the opinion is that Mccoy took a chance to get even.
 Football End Denies Murder.
 Canton, O., Nov. 15-'I am going back to Bethany to face whatever charges the state authorities may bring against me- declared Tommy Mccoy, the football player, when in formed that warrant for his arrest on the charge of murder had been is- sued in connection with the death of Rudolph Munk of the Wheeling (W. Val team.
 "I was playing end" said Mccoy. "I knew that the play was aimed to- ward my direction. had no grievance against Munk He headed the inter- ference l dumped it; that's all there was to it.

THE DUckING STOOL.
How "ScoId" Used to Be Punished In

How "Seold" Used to Be Punished In
Old England.
1t is interesting to conjure up pic
ture of a ''ducking" as practiaed in
England at the end of the eighteenth
century.
When the "scold" had been properly
tried and convicted, she was escorted
by crowd of her neighbors in fact,
by the whole village-to the nearest
pond, and the ygreener and Sinner the
pond the better. A long plank was
produced, at one end of which was the
ducking stool. and in this the scream
ing. struggling victim was securely pin
ioned
The chair end of the plank was then
pushed far over the edge of the pond
and at a signal 1t was tilted deep into
the green ooze until the scold was
completely immersed.
When the dripping, half drowned wo-
man was raised to the surface again
to the jeers and laughter of the on
lockers it can be imagined that her
tongue wagged to some purpose. Aft
er second dose she emerged more
subdued, and after third or fourth
she was as penitent a woman as the
village contained and was allowed to
proceed home a sadder and wiser wo-
man until the next time.-London Tit

Some of the Natives Have q Small
Arsenal Of Them.
Every Spaniard has stick, the we'll
to do own several, and the "gilded
youth" often has a small arsenal of
them. The term arsenal in this case
is used positively and not figuratively,
as the Porto Ricans, like the Spaniards,
have quite craze for sword canes and
dagger canes, and they make these
with remarkable skill.
The blades Of the finer specimens
come from famous smiths in Toledo
and other Spanish cities and are forged
from the finest steel. Some are dam
ascened and others are inlaid with sill
yer and gold some have worked upon
them the name of the owner and 9TH
ers the name of a patron saint. The
assortment Of walking sticks In the
shops in the larger towns is very
varied.
They have fashions in sticks and
canes suited to different ages and pro-
fessions. There are sedate mahogany,
ebony and rosewood sticks for clergy
men and physicians and fanciful bam-
boos with cleaning steel inside for
men about town. There are rough oak
en- sticks for the Spanish Anglomani-
acs and saucy little slaves for those
who ape the styles Of the boulevard.
For travellers there are coffee sticks,
thorns, tea sticks, leopard wood canes
and orange sttcks.-London Chronicle.

Let the dentist make change in the
