After receiving three lessons from
an expert, Miss Nellie Welsh, an Aber-
deem school teacher, daughter of

attempted to run her new automobile
alone last week. After progressing
along Main street satisfactorily for
several blocks, the automobile sud-
denly declined to obey the guiding
hand of the driver and ran into store
front
The machine was rescued from its
position, and continued down the street
but when an attempt was made to
turn corner the automobile again ran
amuck leaped over curbing and
started across the lawn in front of the
Carnegie library.
Mrs. C. A. Russell, wife of the presi-
dent of the Citizens Trust and Law
ings bank. with her mother and a
little daughter, were on the sidewalk
when they saw the automobile dart
across the street. They sought safety
on the library lawn, but in vain, for
the machine pursued them and ran
down both Mrs. Russell and her little
daughter, injuring Mrs. Russell
slightly and the child more seriously,
but not dangerously. Several small
trees were also moved down by the
by the engine of destruction before il
could be stopped. Then Miss Welsh
telephoned for a chauffeur and con-
cluded to take more lessons before
attempting to again drive alone.
While testing rebuilt automobile
on country road, d. d. Bell, an
employee of an Aberdeen automobile
establishment and Geo. Dow a plumber
who accompanied him, were thrown
from the machine and slightly injured

Accidental Killing

After shooting and killing William
Ormiston, a sheep herder, north of

a felony. According to Elliott's story,
he was walking behind Omission, car
rying rifle on his arm, and the
weapon was discharged, Ormiston
dropping to the ground.

Preferred to Be a Quack.

A quack at a fair near Paris was
driving a roaring trade selling nos
trums, drawing teeth and beguiling
the crowd in the usual ways, says the
British Medical Journal. The letter
of the French law against unqualified
practice is very strong, though owing
to the Indifference Of the magistrates
it is not strictly carried out. This,
however, was a particularly fragrant
case, and the police felt compelled to
intervene. The quack was therefore
accosted by the guardians Of the law,
taken to a tent at the back Of his
stand and requested to show his diplo-
ma. To the stupefaction Of the gend-
armes he exhibited perfectly au.
thentic degree Of doctor Of medicine
of the University Of Paris. They werc
profuse in their apologies, which the
doctor cut short with an urgent en-
treaty that they should say nothing
about what they had seen, "for." he
said, 'if the people know that l am
qualified doctor l shall have no more
customers"

Bottomless Tarpon Springs.

The great body Of water which gave
the name to Tarpon Springs, Fla, Is
classed by all Of the old citizens as
bottomless. The center appears to be
hole curbed with Jagged rocks.
Sometimes the weight has lodged and
then dropped on to the extent Of the
sounding line afterward. Many cii-
zens say that they know the depth to
be in excess of TOO, 500 and 900 feet.
Once when a depth Of 200 feet was
reached an obstruction was encounter
ed; then it was dislodged, dropped on
farther, and the line broke. A very
heavy weight has to be used on ac-
count Of the depth, and when divers
are sent down in the springs, as they
have been recently, they report the
same great jagged hole, which, so far
as they can find ont, is without bot
tom. The spring is supposed to be
the principal outlet Of that beautiful
LaEe Butter wKsSh lies just mile
east Of the town. Tidewater comes up
into The spring, and it has acquired
the name because it was the play

Make 1t Unanimous.

With the Democratic nominee for
mayor praising the present city ad-
ministration in Democratic city
convention and with the Democratic
newspaper here singing the praises
OF almost every part Of the city
government the present council-
manic year, there is a general feel
inc that the election of the ticket
headed by Frank n. Moore should
he unanimous April A next. With
out adverse critics and with no fault
to find, why should any one believe
that the Moore. ticket is not a strong
and Winning one?
Especial attention is called 10 the
fact that within the year, the Expo
nent has strongly endorsed about
every department of the city govern
ment as its own words show and as
there is no laxity now in running
the city's affairs it has no Just or
reasonable grounds for change of
mind. 1t is to he congratulated ii
it shows courage and self-respect
enough to stand ny what it has said.
Note what the Exponent saws
about Mayor Moore as follows.
Mayor Moore is very punetual,
and he attends TO all affairs in his
court most expediiiously. Even tho
residents of the city who are not OF
the same political convictions cannot
help admiring the methods OF the
mayor, and it is unanimously con.
coded that he is the best mayor
Clarkdbuug ever had
In addition the Exponent says
Mayor Moore is high minded gen
tleman, and as matter of fac
wants all the ordinances OF the city
enforced. He is just TO the mos
minute detail, and never suffer.
himself to be Influenced ny hi,
friends or personal ideas"
And further praise of Mayor
Moore is made by the Exponent q:
follows:
"one attending The mayors cour
cannot help Ibut admire The dignit,
and the manly way in which he dis
penses with the citys perplexin;
problems"
Mayor Moore is certaialy described
as an ideal mayor by the Exponen
and what stronger enforcement q
a public official, if any, could h,
given than that by the ESponen. t,

Also the public finds the Exponca
giving similar praise to Harry /.

That is exactly what the Exponent
is thinking about and it thinks that
way so constantly and continually
that it can not get its mind off the
subject.

Taxpayers Satisfied.
eminent

The municipal ticket headed by
Mayor Frank r. Moore is so salts
factory not only to the Republicans
OF clarksburg and the Telegram but
also to such a large number of Dem
ocrats and others that it is not al all
strange that the Exponent is
grumibling about that fact. Even
the Exponen: itself as established
by its own declarations during the
year to be just with itself and not
to strain its conscience should
openly admit that it is an ideal
ticket.
The Exponent has declared this
year that Ciarksburg has splendid
municipal government. Ii has made
the assertion that every one says
Frank R. Moore is the best mayor
Clarksourg ever had. People do
not say such things as that unless
they actually believe what they say.
That the taxpayers are included in
the citizenship OF clarksburg. the
Exponent will not have the audacity
to deny, and when citizens generally
say Mayor Moore is fine official,
certainly the taxpayers are saying
i; too. Since the citizens are
pleased with Mayor Moore the tax
payers are also pleased with him
and there certainly was regard for
the interests of the citizens ana tax
payers Of the city, when he was re-
nominated Tuesday night,

remains undlmmed by the mists

The Exponent can not advance a
single reason why Mayo Moore
should not be. reelected. 4 has
given several reasons this year why
he should be reelected, among
which is one that he lis the best
mayor Clarksburg ever had. Has
the Exponent tired OF that kind of a
mayor?
