.oLEy NUTTER, TRIES TO END HIS

UNTlMELY END OF II. J. NUT.

+ As the result OF a self,inflitcl bullet
wound, Obey Nuttcr, aged about twen
Ity.one years lies in the Miners Hos
pltal In this city In SERIOUS condI.
tion and will probably succumb to his
injuries.
The unfortunate young man is a
son Of the late Mr.. T. ]. Nntter of En-,
terprise whose funeral took place this
afternoon from his residence at
that place.
The elder Mr.. Nuttpr was injured
in a fall OF slate at the Enterprise
Mines, where he had been employed
for number Of years on Tuesday OF
this week and was brought to the
Miners hospital on that afternoon and
passed away the following afternoon
Wednesday.
Tho remains were prepared for bur
ial by Undertaken r. d. Cunningham
aud taken to his home. Las,
night about eleven O'Clock the young
man walked into the room, where lay
the corpse of his father and seemed
very much affected. After viewing
the remains for several minutes, he
suddenly turned and pulled u 32.cali
Der lyer-Johnson revolver from his
pocket and fired it into his right
breast inaicting a deadly wound.
Relatives rushed to, the young
mans assistance and he was given
! medical attention and this morning al
ten o'clock was brought TO this city
on the Fairmont and Clarksburg inter
urban and rushed to the Miners Hos
Ipital. No trace of the bullet could be
found. The bullet entered the right
breast and no further trace could be
found and the attending physician al
the Miners hospital stated that the
man was In a serious condition
though the outcome could hardly be
told at this time.
The young, man Was married and
his wife Is now on a visit to relatives
In Bower. Randolph county, W. Va
The young man has wife, mothe,
and two brothers, Andrew and Luther
and three sisters, Hazel, Bertha and
Stella. He is the eldest child Of the
family.
The tragedy following SO closely on
the heels of the terrible accident
which resulted in the death of the
husband and father has almost pros
tratcd the family.
No other motive than grief over his
ldther's death can be assigned for
the rash act, which will probably re.
suit in death.

The stepson that recovered was =
the opinion that he had been. poisoned
by some coffee he drank. He did
not drink all his coffee, while his
brothers did.
Suspicious of poison were strong at
the time, but the coroner did not con
duct an investigation, on the belief Of
a physician that the two boys had
died Of ptomaine poison.
Romie, who was the older Of the
three boys, thought other attempts
had been made on his life, and left
home. aS
For some time a local detective

Following is the report OF the Good

body last night.
To the President, Board OF Directors
and members OF the Chamber Of
Commerce Of the City Of Fairmont:
Gentlemen:
The Good Roads committee OF tho
Chamber of Commerce OF the City o..

In the rooms Of the First National

organizing.
There were presnt, Wm. D. ice.

was attended by Mr. Showalter and

After full discussion of the sub.
ject, 1t was the ccucensus Of opinion.
at the Mt. Lake park5meeting, that
the most practical and substantial
way Of improving country roads, In
a section Of country like, West Va,
was by vitrided brick paving. This
kind OF work insures durability and
is the least expensive TO maintain.

men Vst' 2inloinotl tp ttc subject.
During the discussibnit was stated
that In some sections of the country
1t was thought that brick paving of
country roads was too expensive to bc
undertaken by the, outlaylng country
districts; however, It Is the belief Of
your committee that this would not
be true when considered u connection
with the heavy hauling done in this
country. -
We believe that the outlaylng dis.
tricts in this county in few years
pay out uselcssly, and for which the
tax payer receives little or no return
for his money, sufficient money in
Improving dirt roads, which, II prop.
erly expended, would in q short time,
prove the principal thoroughfares lead
ing to and from the county seat and
other principal towns in this county.
Az the question OF good roads is
becoming one OF the leading issues OF
Inc present age, We submit that there
should be applied TO 1t modern bust.
ness principles. When the Federal
Government desires TO raise a large
amount OF money II does SO by issuing
Government bonds. If a coal com.
pSnE' manufacturing industry, rail.
ROAD company or other corporations
ana public utilities can be SUCCESS.
iuiiy financed on a bonding plan so
as 10 insure efficiency and economy,
Se SC no reason why such business
methcds should not be applied to and
adopted by the public when dealing

Pigs During Winter.

Fave you ever observed how
subject your pigs are to cold?
Hoy they shiver and seek shelter
in fence corners against the cold
wiAds Of winter? And do you
know that the food that ought to
go to make pigs grow, must in
such cases be used to produce
bodily heat for the little fellows?
No farmer who is engaged in
hog-raising can afford to leave
filters of young pigs exposed to
the rigors Of our Wintery days,
particularly when it rains and
the wind blows chill from the
north.
1t is easy and costs little to
provide clean shelter for the
hogs. If the hog-house has no
floor, raise the dirt floor by filling
in, and supply clean bedding.
Good shelter and clean bedding
pay; they pay by the saving on
the feed bill; they pay by the
quicker growth in the weight of
the animals. Dept. Agricultural
