Miss Starr, one bullet taking effect
in her breast and the other in her
head, Immediately after shooting
her, he placed the gun against his
head and fred. Both died almost In
stantly. The girl was 81 years of age.
H, The couple were on the lower t1oor
Of the Zogg home during the evening,
and the rest Of the family had retired

awakened them and they rushed down
stairs, and upon entering the room in
which the couple were, found the two
bodies lying upon the floor. The
Brooke county coroner was called and

today are the discussions OF the ap.
preparation bill in the house and in
the senate, and the real fight, which is
destined to take place in the senate,
on the Pierce pipe line bill. Last night
the advocates OF the pipe line measure
claimed that they would have nine or
ten Republican votes on the measure.
and it is believed that nine Democrats
will support the bill. In the meantime
big oil lobby is at work trying TO
prevent the passage Of the measure.
| It seems likely that now that this bill
will have lot of support. The vote
on the bill has created great amount
of interest and a large gallery is antic-
ipated atstoday's sessions.
One Of the best tricks that has been
played on member of the senate In
many sessions was perpetrated on
Captain Hatfield, of Morgantown, last
Saturday night by one Of his political
friends. Shortly after supper some
one called up Senator Hatfield and fmt.
tated the governors voice. The speak
er told Senator Hatfield that the Dem.
.ocrats were double crossing the Re.
publicans on the pollution bill, and
that il the Democrats did not get to.
gether on the proposition and do what
was right that there would be no
money given to the university at Nor.
gantown. The speaker, however. did
not mention what he wanted the Dem
ocrats to do.
b Captain Hatfield called a meeting of
the Democrats in the upper chamber
OF the .Kanawha and there made long
speech on the subject that lasted until
llong after midnight, and at which
many OF the other Democrats also made
speeches. Then. someone asked. tho
senator from Morgantown what the
governor had said and how he wanted
| the Democrats to vote and what he
thad demanded. should be done.
Then It dawned upon the. senator
that some one had been strlnging him.
II don't know which side Of the cues:
tion the governor wanted us to take"
he declared. II only: know that he was
as mad as a wet hen and roared like a
lion.nn The senator was tipped of to
the joke which had been played on
him, and he paid for the ibrea kfasts all
the way round on Sundaysmorning. Il
