REPORTED UNSAFE
Building Inspector Hess and Commit
tee Condemn Steeple on First
Methodist Church.

The City Council held a special
meeting Monday night.
The liquor license of B. Lipsic, of
to Philip Hack. the new proprietor.
Report on Church Steeple.
At former meeting of council at
tention was directed to what was re-
garded as the unsafe condition of the
steeple on the First Methodist church
corner of West Burke street and Ma
pie avenue. Accordingly Henry H.
Hess, Building Inspector. Architect
Chapman Kent and w. H. Franken-
berry and M. l.. Compton, contractors
and builders, were appointed COM
mittee to inspect said steeple and
make report of same to council. AT
the special meeting of council Mon
day night Mr.. Hess submitted the fol-
lowing report:
To the Honorable, the Mayor and
Council:
Martinsburg, w. Va.
Gentlemen:
In accordance with the instruction
of the Council directing the Building
Inspector to make an examination OF
the steeple on the First Methodist
Episcopal church on the corner of
West Burke street and Maple avenue,
in this city, l beg to say that made
the examination as directed.
Associated with me in making the
examination were Mr.. w. II. Franken-
berry, Chapman Kent and M. l..
Compton, the committee appointed by
the Council at your meeting on the
Bird day of October to act in conjunc-
ton with the Building Inspector.
We beg to report that your COM
mittee found that only three of the
four-by-six braces were tight that
were placed in this steeple several
years ago when repairs were made to
the steeple.
Three pieces at the bottom Of the
octagon-shaped base were badly rot
ted.
The top of the octagon-shaped base
upon which the steeple proper rests
appeared to have been wrenched from
right to left.
Where it now stands it is four in
ches out of plumb at its southeast
corner and three inches out of plumb
at it's northwest corner in a vertical
heighth of only twelve feet.
Indications show that there Is a
constant movement of the steeple dur
ing a wind storm.
All diagonal bracing on the side
were found loose, caused by the con-
slant swaying of the steple. the
base and steeple proper are OF light
and very poor construction and were
not securely anchored and properly
braced when constructed.
We beg to say that in the opinion
of your committee this steeple is dan
gerous and is liable to fall during
heavy storm.
Respectfully submitted,
H. H. HESS,
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1912-10-19
COLONIAL HOTEL
CHANGES HANDS

Mr.. Philip Hack the well known
merchant at the northeast corner of
Queen and Burke streets. has added
wet line to his dry goods business,
so to speak. He has bought the fur
nishings of the Colonial Hotel, for
many years known as the Valley
House, on North Queen street, from
Mr.. B. Lipsic, who recently purchased
the hotel outfit from Mr.. George L.
Baker.
Mr.. Hack has already taken posses
sion of the Colonial and will open up
the bar as soon as the law allows
him to, that is, thirty days from to-
day. The liquor license was trans
ferred from Mr.. Lipsic to Mr. Hack
at a special meeting OF the City Coun-
Gil last night. Mr.. Hacks brother-in-
law, Mr.. Bart Dormer, and wife will
manage the hotel for him, though he
will have personal supervision over
everything connected with it.
Some time ago Mr.. Hack was grant
ed saloon license for the old George
W. Schill place at 248 North Queen
street. with the expectation of buy
ing the property; but the negotiations
fell through and then Mr. Hack turn
ed his eye on the Colonial Hotel, a
business proposition that presented
greater possibilities of financial sue
cess to him, and the deal with Mr..
Lipsic is the sequel. So the saloon
license was Cancelled.
That Mr. Hack will make a success
of his latest venture none of his
friends have any doubts whatever

GEORGE FREVEL
IN JAIL CHARGED
WITH BAD CRIME
Alleged to Have criminally Assaulted
Mrs. Rose Walters.
CRIME COMMITTED
AT HER HOME MONDAY

Little Town of Marlowe Shocked over
the Affair and the Man Alleged to
be Guilty is Arrested and Held
Pending Developments - Husband
Arrived Home Shortly Afterwards.
George Freyel, who is employed by
the Western Maryland Railroad Com
pany near Marlowe, where the Pitts
burg Limestone Company is develop
ing territory on the West Virginia
side of the river, is in the county Jail
charged with committing criminal
assault upon Mrs. Rose Walters, wife
of A. Walters, of Marlowe, Monday
afternoon.
After the affair became known Mr..
George Keesecker, of Falling Waters
district, telephoned Justice Harry s.
Thompson of the occurrence and ask
ed that warrant be issued for the ar
rest of Frevel. The warrant was pre-
pared and Constable w. S. Wild and
Policeman Charles Riddle secured an
automobile and went to Marlowe.
Upon arriving there they were in
formed where their man could be To-
Gated Going to the railroad camp
they experienced no difficulty in find
ing him. He had been drinking heav-
lily and becoming drowsy had lain
down and gone to sleep. He was
aroused, placed in the automobile and
brought to jail where he will remain
until given preliminary hearing be-
fore justice Thompson.
But little could be learned of the
affair, as those who are in possession
of evidence have refused to divulge it.
But 1t appears, from what little is
known, that Frevel went ia the Wal
tiers home, while the husband was abb
sent, and committed the deed. 1t is
also known that the husband returned
while Frevel was there, and. upon
learning of the affair, severely beat
him before he could escape.
Frevel stoutly denied the charge,
and claims he can prove his inno-
eence.
Mrs. Walters is about IS years of
age, and it is said that her married
life has not been very happy. She
and her husband live in house own
ed by Mrs. Robinson, of Marlowe.
Frevel is o single man and lives with
his brother James near there at what
Is known as Broad Lane No date has
been fixed for the hearing.
