doubIe-header, Ashland taking both
games, Friday we won from them by
a score of to l, with Dashner in
the box. Saturdays game should
have been chalked up to our credit,
had it not been for a couple of errors
at critical time. Keuhn pitched
this game and made good showing,
letting the Ashlanders down with
only four hits.
The team come home late Saturday
night and the game Sunday with
Ashland was called off on occount OF
rain.
Mondays game resulted in the
score of II to 9 in favor of Ashland,
and was the best exhibition of how
not to play base ball, ever witness
on the local grounds, 1t was very
evident to the spectators that there
was something radically wrong with
the team. For some time there has
been a feeling of jealousy among GER

have been knocking one another.
Itculminated Saturday in a slight
disagreement between two of the
players and should have been stop

not thought that it would in any

that it is impossible to play the game

CHARLESTON DRY
COUNTY COURT UNANIMOUSLY VOTED
AGAINST GRANTING LICENSES.

The county court has unanimously
voted to refuse to grant liquor licenses
in Charleston. This action was taken
yesterday, and while it was not a
surprise to people, who have been
following the political fight that ha,
led up to the present situation, the
announcement was the signal for great
rejoicing on the part of the people
who have been actively engaged in
the fight against the saloon.
The sincere, active, temperance
workers were happy in the knowledge
that they had accomplished a good
for which they have been long seek
ing, the paid agents of anti-saloons
league felt pleased that the action
had given them chance to point
to their work, and the men v no have
been hoping for an opportunity to re-
sumo their broken up business and
the business men who are of the opin-
ion that a dry town is an injury to
the city, received the verdict wtiI
gloom,
According to Judge Shepherd
action Of Sle coart was taken, or al
least his vote was cast for dry
Charleston, because of an editorialiE
the Gazette, which declared that an
investigation of the court house was
needed anb because there bad been
written letter from one saloon keep
er to another, declaring that if the
town was kept wet that Shepherd
would be impeached.
Grant P. Hall made an impass,On-
ed and outspoken address against the
granting of license. He told many
reasons for his position. Mr.. Hall
made the direct assertion that mem
Der of the court had been offered
$4,000 to vote wet. He declared
that member had been offered
farm to cast his vote for license.

CAUGHT IN A FROG.
HORRIBLE DEATH OF BRAKEMAN FRANK
BURNS, OF LEON.

A pitiful tragedy that occurred
early Friday evening at Lewis on the
c. < o.. short distance this side
of st. Albans, ended the life of Lafe
Burns, one of the youngest brake
men in the employ of the company.
Burns was trying to make coupling
when he got his right foot caught in
frog, and was run down by his
own train and instantly killed. His
right leg and arm were ground to
pieces but the remainder of his body
was unmarried.
The body was placed on No. IS
and brought to this city where it
was prepared for burial by the John
ton Undertaking company. 1t was
shipped to the home of the victim at
Leon, W. Va, this morning, where
the funeral will be held tomorrow.
The tragedy was one of marked
pathos because of the fact that the
victim was very young man. being
scarcely 81 years of age and single.
1t is said, he was engaged to a young
woman of Leon, to whom he was to
be married the latter part of this
month. He had been running out
of Russell for several months.
His brother, Walter, met with
same fate a few years ago. The
father, mother and family have our
deepest sympathies. Huntington
