OF CIarksburg to Join in the

to Be Held Here.

G. w. Dudderar, secretary of the

general committee in charge of the
Fourth of July celebration to be on
the fair grounds here, makes the
following signed appeal to the citi-
zens of Clarksburg:
To every loyal citizen OF Clarks-
burg:
Plans for the biggest Fourth OF
July picnic ever held in the history of
Harrison county are progressing fine
ly and some of our committees are
preparing to put over some surprises
that day. Through some possible
misunderstanding of committee dut-
les the matter of circulating a petit
tlon for closing of stores and places
Of business has not been attended to-
A special committee, however, has
been appointed and petition will be
circulated beginning Monday morn
ing and we want to appeal to the
patriotism of our merchants and bus
mess men in recognition of this ma
tional holiday and to their loyalty to
Clarksburg, the greatest little city in
the United States, to close their
places Of business on that day and
boost for this movement in every pos
sible way. The work of circulating
this petition is considerable and is
being done by busy men. 1t is quite
probable. therefore, that the COM
mittee will not be able to see every
one. The list will be published in
the papers several times between now

the vessel, the upper deck remaining
above the surface and to this the per-

IN JUSTICES. COURT
Tries to Fell Fellow Member Of

A. Judson Findley. prosecuting at

L. shinn. well known young lawyer,
came near coming to blows in Justice
T. G. Nlcewarner's court last evening
at the close of the hearing in the case
Of John Stevens and Ella Allen,
charged with living together unlaw-
fully as husband and wife.
From what could be learned Of the
case Mr.. Shinn was representing Mrs.
Stevens, wife of the accused man in
the case, and had effected peaceful
settlement between Mr.. and Mrs.
Stevens, and Mrs. Stevens wished to
withdraw the warrant against her
husband. Mr.. Findley objected to this
and he and Mr.. Shinn had words. II
is alleged that Mr.. Shinn called
Findley a bad name and that Findley
seized chair and would have struck
Mr.. Shinn If persons in the court
room had not interfered.
1t is alleged that after peace had
been restored to certain degree Mr..
Shinn invited Mr.. Findley outside to
settle the dispute, but Findley declined
to go.
The case against Stevens and Ella
Allen will be decided later.
