A jury decided yesterday that local man was
guilty of bootlegging. This being the second con.
vlction it entails penitentiary sentence. The case
was hard fought. The sentence is not yet prom
ouncsd although term in the penitentiary is
inevitable. There is no doubt of this mans
guilt and his cowardly attempt to hide behind the
skirts Of woman points out the real depravity
ard lack of decent Instinct in the heart of this
man. This action, II other, should get the limit
in punishment. The free use of money in the case,
the array of expensive legal talent in making the
defense, leads to suspicion that bootleggers in
this community have mutual fund 10 be en-
ployed in of arrest. This is an admitted fact
In the larger cities and the particular case under
discussion points strongly to similar situation
here. There is one thing certain, no expense has
been spared to keep this bootlegser from the penl-
Tertiary In spite Of the fact that he was admitted
~ well known as botlegger both here and In
Clarksburg, that he had been convicted once be-
fore of this oHense and that his guilt was so evl.
dent that no legal subterfpse could suffice TO
save him.

 DESTROYED IN 13 MONTHS

New York, Feb. 22.-The dirigible Roma, which blew up yesterday over Hampton Roads, was the third big air ship to be destroyed in a spec taoular mishap in the last 13 months.
 On Aug. "A, 1921, the zR-2 built by the British for pur- chase by the United States at a cost of $2,0oo, 1000, explod- ed over Hull, England, killing 42, including 16 Americans.
 On Jan. l, 1921, the R-54, which flew from England to Long Island and back in tic summer of 1919, the first air ship to cross the Atlantci, was wrecked in a gale while teth- cred outside her airdrome in Hcwden, England.
 Before the ZR-2 disaster, the greatest number killed in an airship accident in peace times was 28, the toll of the German Zeppelin Ia over the Johannisthal airdr0me on Oct. IF, 1913.
 Some of the other airship &C., oidents in which heavy losses of life occurred follow:
 July 21, 1919-Ten lost when dirigiblc exploded at Chicago and fell i'll flames into the Illinois Trust and Savings Bank.
 July 9, 1912-Five killed at Atlantic City when balloon Akron, in which Melvin Vani- man hoped to cross the Allan tic, exploded shortly after leaving the ground.
 Sept. 9, l9I3-Fifteen lost in destruction of Zeppelin L-1 off Heligoland.
 July Is, 191g--Twelve lost when British airship N. S.-1l fell into North Sea after being struck by lightning.
 June 20, 1914-Nine lost ill collision of airship and air plane at Vienna.
 Six of the great peaoe-time dirigibles built by Count zep- pelin, the German aviator, were wrecked in accidents. They were zeppelins !, II, III and VI and Deatsehlands I and II.
 The Germans lost 66 of the 83 dirigibles sent out during the war, 34 of them being ao- counted for by the allies and the remainder 32 wrecked.

lFrom Wednesday,s Daily,

News reached the city yesterday evening from Bard stating that the large storage room at that place, belonging to House-Jonos Grain Company of this city, was totally destroyed by fire at 6 o'clock. A re- porter in conversation with MT. House last night was told that the origin of the fire was mystery, as no stove for the use of fire had been in stalled in the building. The building, 30 by 75 feet, had just been completed and quite q large amount of feed was stored there in. It was thought for a while that the residence of Med Donaldson would be burned, also, but for the timely work of a number of the neighbors who fought valiantly in q bucket brigade, kept the Donald son building from burning. This building in connection with a gen eral store at Bard is under the man. agement of George Spillman
 Trainmen arriving on the P. g. E.. 1tated that the train was compelled to stop beyond the fire until the building was burned down on &C., count of its proximity to the track Mir. House stated that the loss to the House-Jones Company would reach approximately $2,5O0 with no insurance.

Details of the Accident.

ACOoAiS Ol bliC 1ACSlQCII. Norfolk, Va, Feb. 22.-Flung
 earthward, presumably by a broken rudder, the giant army airship Ro- ma plunged 1000 feet or more yes terday to strike ground at the Hamp- ton Roads army base, capsize across a high-tension electric line and
 burst into roaring furnace of blaz-
 ing hydrogen gas, in which at least 30 of her army crew and passengers
 perished.
 Long after dark last night, many
 hours after her fall, the ship was still mass of flames from end to end of her 410-foot mass. The fire was feeding on the million cubic feet of gas that had distended the great bag for the flight.
 Barely dozen of the two score or men aboard had been picked up alive. One died enroute to a hos pital. All of those who survived the fire escaped by jumping as the ship struck. The others, penned in the hull beneath the fallen bag, were burned to death. Heat of the fire fought back the rescuers for hours.
 Three fire departments fought the flames with chemicals and by Fl o'clock last night the fire was out Derricks began picking up the wreckage as the flames were driven back. There was scarcely more than the aluminium framework and the six Liberty motors to move. Within the wreckage lay the bodies, many of them charred beyond direct recog- milton. Thirty had been taken out last night. Three or four more were thought to be still in the chawed mass that alone remained of what had been the. largest ship of her type in the world.
 Accounts of surviving officers as to what. happened were not avail able last night. Every man who es- or both. Eye-witnesses who saw the smash agreed, however, that the huge, kite-like structure of the stern rudder, itself as large as a bombing plane, had slipped to one side as the Roma drove along 1000 feet above the army base
 She was making trial flight with new battery of Liberty mo- tors. They were installed to re- place Italian engines bought with her in Italy, but which have not proved satisfactory. Installation was completed at Langley Field two weeks ago.
 It was just before ? D. m. when those below at the Hampton Roads base, their attention caught by the | thunder of the six looked up to see the Roma dip down from her straight flight
 The ship nosed down steeply. As she came closer it was seen that i her crew were hurling out sand ballast from the ports in the fragile . fabric that formed the covering of the space between her keel and f back, the living and operating quar- ters of the ship. The dipping blunt nose of the bag did not respond. On the ship came, unchecked in her glide earthward, head first.

Norfolk, Va, Feb. 22.-The army air service of the United States military arm expects to be- gin an immediate investigation to determine the cause of the disaster to the American airship Roma in which thirty four were killed and eleven were injured when the gi- gantic ship plunged to the earth yesterday afternoon. Stark and flame scared, the twisted steel skel- eton that has been the queen ship of American skies lay near Norfolk mud flats, its charred remains con- oealing many secrets which the air service will seek to probe.
 No one will ever know what caus- ed the collapse of the huge craft. Officers at Langley Field said practic- ally everyone Of the victims III the disaster was burned to death.
