following details of the suicide or
Frank, son OF Leeman Maxwell:
The entire community was
shocked Monday evening over Ind
news that Frank Maxwell. son .oS
iMr. and Mrs. Leeman Maxwell, had.
ended his life by sending a. Buliet
into his brain. The unfortunate Of
currence happened at the old Max
well homestead on Bluestone about
$3.50 Monday evening. From all aS-
pearances he had stood before the
mirror in his own room aud With d
repeating rife had sent buliet into
his brain. The bali entered the
forehead and perhaps lodged In the
iIbraln. Death was not Instantancs

No one was at the house at the
time except Mrs. Maxwell and the
hired girl. The alarm was given
and DR.. Wetzel was hastily sum
moned, and he reached the MAXWELL
home few moments before the.
end. Mr.. Maxwell, who had BEEN
at Clarksburg that day returned
here in the evening ana was here

His health failed him and he con-
suited a physician who pronounced
his case diabetes. He came home
Thanksgiving but did not return.
Physicians examined him and could
see no signs of the dreaded disease.
but his condition seemed to pray on
his mind. He began the reading OF
medical works and the longer he
read the more he seemed to brood
over his condition, imagining thathe
had other loathsome diseases.
1t is presumed that he studied
over his condition until his. minis

He left note in his room bidding

FORGED CHECK
Is Made Good by a Railroad
Man Stationed at
Lumberport.

Captain f. Doney, OF the Baltimore
and Ohio police at Parkersburg, has
received word from B. G. Williams,
of SINNERS Tavern, at Falrmont, to
the effect that he had recovered
s62.8O on a check which he cashed
for E. s. Limerick, of Lumberport,
to which the latter is alleged to have
forged the name of w Blair, fire.
man on the Short Line. limerick is
employed as plumber at Lumber
port.
The check was the monthly pay of
Blair, who lost 1t at the water sta
lion at Lumberport, and which was
found by boy and turned over to
limerick for quarter. The check
passed through a bank at Fairmont.
and one at Pittsburg, and finally
went to the headquarters Of the Bal
timore and Ohio at Baltimore, where
the signature to the check was de-
clared to be forgery, Blair having
reported his loss before it reached
Headquarters.
Upon investigation Captain Doney
traced the party who got the check,
and limerick was identified by VIII
liams as the man to whom he had
paid the money on the check. 1t de-
veioped that 1t was no. loss Of the
railroad. and Captain Doncy did not
push the prosecution. After he let
the case rest, limerick paid Williams
he full amount of the check.

CAssANlAY. April Specially
The foreign population of this
place is panic stricken over the
series of notices which have been
posted over the town during the last
few days notifying them to leave
the community. The Suslness peo-
pie are much alarmed over the sit
uation as some of them have been
threatened In anonymous letters FOR
having business dealing with and
encouraging the foreigners in stay-
ing about the town.
The most serious objection APP
pears to be made to the Italians. and
st has been to the population of this
nationality that the greater number
of the threatening letters have been
sent.
There is q number OF Italians in
business here in the various lines OF
trade and all of them are now
making an effort to dispose of their
business and leave. as they say that
they are inclined to believe that
their property will be destroyed in
the evnt of their remaining here.
The latest notice posted over the
city reads as follows:

Efforts have been made on the
part of the authorities to ascertain

the war on the foreigners, but it isl
claimed that they can not detect the
guilty ones. They have served re-
peated notices on the foreigners and
property owners through these type
written notices which are posted
about town at night and by sending
them through the mail direct.
Vt is claimed by some that it Isl
the work of number OF American
