GEORGE DUNCAN
CHARGED WITH MURDER
Accused of Having DisSect-
ed a Virginian in Hobo
Cave.

George w. Duncan. formerly 3
resident of Huntington, was arrest
ed by Constable F. b. Plymale as he
stepped from the doors of the Ohio
penitentiary at Columbus Wednes-
day morning, and brought back to
Wayne county.
Duncan, it is alleged, was present
and took part in the murder of a
Virginian in Hobo Cave, back of
Kenova, in the fall of 1910, follow
ing game of cards.
The arrest of Duncan was caused
by Percy Blackwell, a convict now
serving time in the Moundsville
penitentiarv. Blackwell alleges he
and Duncan, together with man
named Frank johnson, engaged in
a game of cards with a Virginian,
who was a stranger to them; that
the game resulted in a row during
which the stranger was stabbed
TO death and his body dissected.
1t will be remembered that at
about the time this crime is alleged
to have taken place we published an
exclusive accountof the finding by
Jesse Cyrus of human bone in a
fodder shock. There was much
speculation at the time as to where
the bone came from, but the matter
was finally forgotten by many unit
few weeks since when Blackwell
wrote to Huntington officer, sup
posedIy dieting the skeleton out of
the closet"
Mr.. Brown accompanied Con-
stable Plymale to Columbus after
the prisoner.
Owing to the absence of import
ant witnesses a hearing has been de-
layed, but it has been set for Friday
at Wayne.
Duncan was sent to the county
Jail for safe-keeping last Saturday

JARIUS NEWTON
or Haynie Branch, Shot
and Instantly Killed
Last Friday Morning.

Jarius Newton, aged about 80,
OF Haynie Branch, about four miles
south of this place, was shot and in
stantlv killed about niue O'Clock
Last F'iiay morning. Newton, with
his wife, lived with Martin Turner.
the la,ter's father. 1t seems that in
a family row Newton secured a re.
volver and threatened TO shoot
Turner, who was taking the part of
HE daughter, and that they all three
bad hold of the weapon and in the
struggle 1t was discharged. The
bullet entered Newton's back, four
inches from armpit, under left
shoulder blade, causing instant
death.
All the parties are well.known in
this county and az far as we know
have good regulations. Martin
Turner was veteran of the civil
war, having fought on the Ade of
the South. immediately after the
var he located on Haynie Branch
and has since lived there, always en-
gagged IN ferming.
When notified Of the shooting
Squire A. @. Brown went to the
scene of the conflict and bad coro-
ner's jury summoned. After hear
ing the evidence the jury returned a
verdict that Jarius Newton came to
his death from a bullet from an
lVers ~ johnson revolver in the
hands ot a person or persons un
known to them.
There was no one present at the
time of the shooting but the three
persons named above and in the
scuffie the two now living probably
could not tell whose finger touched
the trigger Of the weapon and
caused the bullet to be discharged.

electrical POWER IN
BIC overland PLANT

An Improvement of much import
ance to the automobile industry has
been installed at the big Overland
factory The Willys-Overland Co..
which ranks as leader in manufac
turing efficiency. recently closed what
is probably the largest industrial
contract for electric power ever given
to a central station.
The contract calls for the electri-
fication of sixteen large enamelling
furnaces having a volume of $4,000
cubic feet and a capacity of 140 tons
of enamelled product every ten hours.
The work put through the oven con-
sists of various sizes and shapes of
steel parts. With the $500 horse
power previously required from the
same station, the new furnaces will
make the total now used by the over
land Company approximately 10000
horsepower load. According 20 cleo
trical engineers. this is fully as great
as the total power required for light
ing a city larger than Toledo.
