TRAGEDY ENDS

Child Discovers Parents Lying Upon Floor
Covered With Blood

DELAWARE, June g. Level
Ign Johnson, aged 40, and Eva
Johnson aged SO, his wife were
found dead in their bedroom at
their home, at Ostrander, near
by one Of the children.
The appearance Of each was
such that it is thought murder and
suicide were the cause of their
death. They were found laying
in a pool of blood, and everything
pointed to the fact that Johnson
had killed his wife and then com
mitted suicide. Mrs. Johnson's
waist was torn and evidence of a
struggle for life was shown. The
couple had quarreled frequently.
Six children, ranging from two
to twelve years old survive them,
and they told of their father
spending an hour at noon, shapen-
ing his razor with which he later
committed the deed. Elk.

NEW TIME TABLE
ON W. M. RY.
Effective Sunday Morning June 18th

The Western Maryland Railway
Company have issued orders
changing their passenger sched-
ule effective Sunday June 18th at
1901 a. M, and will cease to
make connections with the B. q
O. passenger as formerly.
The west bound passenger will
arrive in Belington from Elkins
Sunday morning at 6:35, and
leave east at GAS a. m. via Ell
kins, Cumberland, Connellsville
to Pittsburgh. Will make con-
nections with Baltimore and other
eastern cities at Cumberland.
Train No 9 arrives in Belington
from Pittsburgh, Connellsville,
Cumberland and Elkins at $3.50
p. m. and will return to Elkins
at 1910 as No. Al.
Daily trains No. AZ and 43 will
be discontinued between Being
ton and Elkins.
This change will enable pass
engers from Belington to spend
the whole day in Elkins and in
termediate points, as we'll as part
of the night and return home by
bed time. The same rule will
apply to Elkins people.
B. & O. passengers who come
in here at II o'clock will have a
stop off in Belington until evening
at 1910, unless other arrange
ments are made. 1t is thought
that the C. & C. will take the B.
& O. train on to Elkins at noon,
altho this is problematic. How
ever, Mr.. Dye, General Freight
and Passenger Agent went to
Grafton Monday, and it is thought
will make some arrangements con-
corning the new schedule by
which the C. & C. will take
charge of a part of the passenger
traffic south toward Elkins.
The Western Maryland have
been delivering passengers to the
B. & O. at this point long enough,
and it is only a wonder why they
didn't make the change sooner.
This change will have some
bearing on the extension the B.
& N. r. r. (old Wabash) which
is probably owned by the same
interests as the Western Mary
land. on to Fairmont and thru to
Pittsburgh.
This change is just the begin
ming of the many changes which
will now take place. 1t is thought
by some of the inner circle,
that the Elkins Electric Railway
will be extended Immediately to
Belington and other points north.
Belington is now the battle
ground Of big interests, and are
long THE Hub of West Virginia
(Belington) as she is correctly
termed will not only have the
railroads leading in and out, but
will have highways, electric
lines, and improved roads leading
from all over the land, which
means city of no small caliber
in the near future.

For seventeen years" said the
governor. "the Republicans were in
control of the State government, had
broken their promises and pledges,
but with an honest, determined gov
ernor in charge the legislation you
had demanded for all these seventeen
years was granted to you in less than
three years. This legislation was
fought by the very men who now ask
you to return them to power They
are telling you that the legislation
passed in the last three years is in
need of a change and revision, and
they have the audaclty to ask you to
permit them to revise and change it.
If there are any changes to be made
in these laws let them be made by
the friends of the laws, rather than
the enemies.
Governor Stokes was in the As
sembly for two years; he served in
the Senate for nine years, and he was
governor for three years. During all
that time he never gave the slightest
indication of possessing the progress
sive spirit with which he would now
have you believe he is imbued"
The governor then quoted former
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1913-10-24

Senator Everett Colby as saying that
Stokes had never given any assist
ance toward the passage of the public
utilities bill, for which he is now
claiming the credit, and he quoted
former Governor Fort as saying that
Stokes was the worst reactionary In
the State. Governor Stokes is a
progressive at all times when he Is
out of Office" he said, and a re-
dictionary at all times while in office

best"
Prosecutor Silzer charged former
Governor Stokes with preventing the
reporting of a bill introduced by him
as senator, providing for the abolition
of the State Board of Arbitration,
which was characterized as a meas
ure designed solely to provide soft
berths for favored politicians. IF you
want to be on the band wagon this
year" he told his hearers, stay
where you are. Stokes knows now
that he is defeated. He is making
this run simply to get in line for cleo
ton to the United States Senate, and
he has no more idea that he will be
elected governor than have"

issued a statement today, replying
to the newspaper stories of yester-
day that minated that he. Stokes
had dealt lightly with the truth ir
saying that at the request of rep

be inserted in the Republican plat
form:
THE work of the Public Utility
Commission should be enlarged and
extended by the appointment Of prac-
teal railroad men to act as inspec-
tors and to report and advise with
the commission"
Three representatives of railroad
men, George Reed. John J. Costello
and Patrick F. Doyle, in public let
tiers took exceptions to the claims
attributed TO Mr.. Stokes.
The story as published is a Demo-
cratic campaign document" said Mr.
Stokes, land a deliberate misstate-
ment of fact, It is based upon g
falsity, and therefore the whole thing
falls fat. The article states thai
Mr.. Stokes wrote letter in which
he said that 1t (the plank was placed
there at the request of representa-.
tives of the railroad brotherhoods.
AS a matter of fact. I did not say
that. What / did say is a matter OF
record. 1t was contained in lettei
which I wrote on October to T. A

of Phillipsburg, all well-known rail
road employees. In that letter l said
in part: The only problem that car

Get a 10-cent box now.
Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condi-
ton is perfectly natural It is Just
as natural as il is for old people to
walk slowly. For age is never so ac-
tive as youth. The muscles are less
elastic. And the bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets.
One might as well refuse TO aid weak
eyes with glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The bow
els must be kept active. This is i'm
portant at all ages, but never so much
as at fifty.
Age is not time for harsh physics.
Youth may occasionally whip the
bowels into activity. But a lash can't
be used every day. What the bowels
of the old need is a gentle and natu-
raj tonic. One that can be constantly
used without harm. The only such
tonic is Cascarets, and they cost only
10 cents per box at any drug store
