yolved financially aud his liabilities will
exceed his assets by several thousand
dollars, should he not return to adjust
his affairs. The accounts at the post
office were found to bee correct. -Elkins

Kingwood defeated Oakland at basket.
ball by the one-sided score of AZ 8 on last
saturday evening at the armory The
game was very slow, most of the time
being wasted by the Oakland players in
kicking about their imagined grievances.
But for this the score would have been
considerably larger. This was the third
game OF the season between these two
teams, the fret going TO Oakland and the
second to Kingwood by very close scores.
The decisive drubbing administered to
the Marylanders in the third contest
leaves no doubt rs 70 where the supremacy
lies. The locals displayed good team
work and passed the ball all over and
around the visitors
