culturists who have visited through
out the entire county. report condi-
lions most unfavorable and claim that
the average farmer is several weeks
behind schedule.
Gardeners as well as farmers are
complaining 70 no little extent. With
the exception Of one or two days last
week the ground has been unfit for
tilling. Lateness of the cold weather
which is being followed, by heavy
rains. has practically caused a sus.
pension of work in the rural section
which under normal conditions. would
be well under way at this time.
Despite the fact that heretofore po
tatoes have been planted on an UNI
Der OF occasions on st Patrick's day
there has been few IL any planted az

such as experienced in the past few
DAYS continue II will be some time be-

pare the soil for planting.

TRAIN ROBBERS
At PARKERSbURG
They Will Be Turned Over TO Mar
shall Smith--Tried at Wheel
inq.

There Is considerable speculation
az the office OF T. S. Marshal smith
IN Parkersburg when the remainder
OF the train robbers, recently arrest
ed will be taken to Parkersburg, as
all will be delivered there on orders
of removal, the same a. IN the Chas
J. Harrison case. No word has yet
been received at the Office OF the mar
shal when II Is the intention To take
the men there. As IN the Harrison
case they will probably have their
preliminary hearing in the cities in
which they were arrested, and the
order Of removal to this district will
then be made. II Is also the belief
OF the officers that the prisoners will
be- taken there before the regular
term Of Federal court ar Wheeling In
about two weeks, and II has been in.
timated that the cases win be taken
before the grand jury at that term.
There have been various reports as
to the exact amount of the unsigned
currency that was obtained In the
holdup ut Central. II Is learned from
very reliabel source shat the exact
amount was $4,000 which Is eonsld.
erably less than the majority OF the
published reports have made IL. The
officers believe that the principal part
of the booty was split in three ways
and that the remaining $4,000 was
given to the fourth man, who was
with the party when the holdup oc-
Cured. Over $4,000 of this amount
has been recovered aGd Il Is the be.
lief that the greater part or IL will
soon be in the hands OF the officers
II Is said that both railroad and
government officials think that IN the
arrest of the ITarrisons they have
broken mp the most desperate gang
OF train robbers OF the present time.
Now it Is known that they have ter
rorized sections Of Alabama and Mis-.
sissippi. as well as being guilty OF the
local violation.
