No mail arrived here from Wheeling on account of it In the burning of the Fitz gerald Hotel, Terra Alta loses perhaps the greatest enterprise ever started in Preston county. The hotel once completed would have been the making of that town as a summer resort for the highest class of city guests. For | the past few years Mr. Fitzgerald has been one of Terra Alta's most pushing investors; has spent more money in the years since he located here than per haps any citizen of Preston county, and believed in the rule that mofcey is best kept at home, therefore he employs home labor whenever he can possibly do so. The loss to him caused by the fire of Tuesday night will exceed $8,000.?Ex. Hares as a Target Gen. Ruthford B. Hayes was at one time a target of a Georgia Confederate and it was only by a scratch that his life was saved. The scene was on Gaulev River, West Virginia. The Georgian who took aim at the General was William Phillips, of Marietta, and the time 1881. For several days Gen. Floyd had been skirmishing with Gen- Cox's Ohio troups at Hawk's Nest. One fine morning Gen. (then Col.) William Phillips heard a bugle blast; pear Hawk's Nest, across the river, and an Ohio colonel, at the - head of his regiment, road out into the river a good distance. Col. Phillips selected a long range rifle from his men and raising his weapon, took deliberate aim at the Union officer. The distance was great, but Phillips was a fine shot and at the crack of his rifle the plume from the Ohio colonel's high hat fluttered out into the water and the officer dashed up the bank and was out of range. In 1878 Gen. Philips was in Washington and saw the Presi dent. He said something about Hawk's Nest and his aim at an Ohio colonel. President Hayes brightened up and inquired the details. Then the President said he was ,the Ohio colonel whose hat was grazed by Phil lip's bullet. That night Gen. Phillips took tea at the priyate table of the Hayes family. It is not generally known, bui it is a fact, that general Long street was offered the portfolio! of Postmaster-General in Hayes" Cabinet. At the last moment it was discovered that Gen. Long street was an enthusiastic Blaine man, and as Hayes wanted John Sherman to be the nomi nee in 1S80 the Cabinet was re cast and Col.D.M. Key appointed to represent the ex Confeder ates. and i[Gen. Longstreet sent as minister to Turkey. Gen.' Longstreet tells this himself. DR.
