Congregation Frozen out-The con-
gregation of the First Baptist church
was frozen out yesterday on account
of the shortage of gas. The Sunday
school was held about the heaters and
the regular morning church service
was abandoned. Last night brief
service was held followed by the ordi-
Z nance Of baptism.
Appointed constahIe-B. H. Humph.
Fey was named as constable for Paw
Paw district by the County court Sat
arday. There was no candidate for
the office of constable in that district
at the last general election and the
court appointed Humphrey to fill the
vacancy.
They All Looked Alike to Him-W.
d. Scott, colored, was arrested Satur-
day on a warrant issued by Justice
w. w. Conway charging him with
illegal selling. The complaint was
lodged by Howard Linn who charged
e.Scottie" with having sold him pint
Of whiskey, but was unable to identify
the accused when confronted by him
at the Justices court Saturday. "Scot.
tie" was released.
Trains Late-Depleted energy was
probably the cause of the morning
train from Pittsburgh being an hour
late and No. 81, due at 12:40, being
sighted in the Fairmont yards at 2:40,
since the local Baltimore and Ohio of.
ficia1s could think of no reason for
the trains being SO subsequent. No.
SO for Wheeling got away on time, as
did 40 for Grafton and 60 for Con.
nellsyille.
