Secret try of Slaty Dawson was elected to ropresent Preston Lodge of tins place. New pspors keep starting up all over tiie State. The latest venture in newapaperdom is The Doddridge County bun, published ever}’ Thursday at West Union, by Miller & Dee. No. 1 of volume 1, was issued last week. The paper is a seven column folio, neatly printed snd independent in politics. The University foot bail team lias been winning some great games of lute. 1 hey defeated the famous club from Washington-Lee Uni versity at Charleston last week by u scoro of 11) to 0. At Athens they lost a game by a score of 12 to 0, but at Parkersburg last Saturday they defeated the strong club from the Ohio State University by a score of 24 to 0. 1 ho Wheeling Register failed to find out about the annual meeting of the State liar Association held lust week at Morgantown. The In telligencer and other daily papers of the State published good accounts of the convention, but the esteemed Register ignored it entirely. This is not enterprise, nor is it the part of a paper that aspires to be the morning star of the journalistic firmament of this State. U" * '1 he Philippi pap. rs show a sur prising lack of enterprise in obtain ing and publishing the news. Last week they only gave a local men tion of the bloody tragedy enacted in that county, and about which the papers here and all over the State published long accounts, giv ing much more com plete particulars and details. One paper promised toget the facts and tell about it when the trial came off. Brethren, you must get a hnstfe on yon. i he Democratic victor; in New ^ ork is worth more tins election th»n ail the rest put together. It means the absolute control of that great city and State by tlie Deinoc raev for the next twenty years, and New York is the key to the whole situation. 1 his victory is greater and more Tar-reaching than mo3t people think. Tammany Hall has already raised the cry of “Bryan and Van Wyok for 1900,” and this is a ticket that will sweep the country. The following item is from the Monroe Wntcfnn/tn: Only eleven counties in West Vir ginia are reported as having lower oounty levies than .Monroe—Green brier, (25 cents on the #100) Dod dridge, Hancock, Hardy, Harrison, L pshur, Jt fferaon, Mineral, Mor gan, Pendleton and Hampshire. Monroe’s county levy ia 40 cents, Hummers’ 50 cents, Fayette’s and Raleigh’s 70 cents, Nicholas’ and Kauawha'a 80cent?, while Mc Dowell's l< vy is the highest of all, being #1.25 on the % 100. One of the most shocking crimes ever committed in this State oc eurred Wednesday morning of las’ week down in Jaek-on county. A human fiend n *med John F. Baines aged 27 yean, went to the home of Mrs. Kdwsrd Greene, about day light, andjWith a hatchet, murdered the old lady, her -on James and daughter Matilda, and alrnoet killed uuolhbr daughter named Alice, who managed to escape with a bro ken skull and is expected to die yet. 'I'be three vi( tirns were bur ned in one grave Thun tay r ven irg. A large crowd attended li e funeral and feeling is very strong against the murderer who com rnitted i he brutni deed to secure t that was in the house, frorn the sain of a horse. The wre»cl» wit promptly arrested and taken to jail \Yt dnrsdsy, indicted by the Grand Jurv, Thursday.tried by the i’otit Jury, Friday and found guilty of murder in tin* superlative degree and Fit unlay sentenced to be hanged. 'i his swift w.rk was necessary to keep him from being lynched, and even then it whs bard work to save hi® from the mob. AN X-IiAY experiment on a I’romlneut Kim: wood Citizen. \\ lien Hon. .1. (}. MoGrew was in Morgantown recently, h« was persuaded by Ur. Har'igin. of the University, to submit to no X Uiy ex peri hi out in order to eg'nldisli u disputed point 111 medical science Us to Whether the bones of rt fx-rson of his nge would knit together nil right or not. Our readers will re member tho accident that Mr. Mc Grow met with in Florida some years since, in which ho had bath legs broken in u runaway mush up. l’wo or three piotntnout phy-ieims rendered surgiod uni at the time, but tin* first effort w.h « failnri and bo had to have the limbs bro ken over and re-set. In spite of ihi fears of ftiends and ordinary events of that kind, Mr. Me Grew recov ered, and has been able now for some time to get about as well as before the accident, and with only a nano. It was considered a re markable case for one of his years, over eighty. mo doctors generally Deneve that tho limbs of a parson that uhl will not knit together, so Dr. 11 ir tigun insisted on having an X Ray photograph for the use of medical science in tho matter. Mr. MeOrew has one of the pictures in hi3 pos | session, and the experiment devcl oped the fact that the job w is bun gled the second time by tho physi cians down in Florida, as it shows very plainly that the fiactaros of one leg were set crooked and the small hone in the other is lapped over about an inch, and grew to gether that way, as did the bones that were set wrong. Of course it is too late to remedy tho matte*’ now, as Mr. McGrew suffers no in convenience from it, and the wounds havo entirely healed long ago, but he is indignant that the physicians, who claimed to be ex perts aud charged him accordingly, should botch tho job up in that way. Ho paid several bundled dollars for treatment and should have received first class service. ECHOES OF THE ELECTION. The Journal had no roosters last week on tho election, and some of its read. is kicked so over it that they had to run in soino poultry pictures this week to satisfy the faithful and keep them in lino. Tho paper is not out yet, but when it does appear the first pago will be decorated, and what for ? Where the Republicans can expect any comfort from the late election is more tliau wo can understand. We published our roosUrs last week and we don’t take back a rooster nor a crow. J lie Democrats have every reason in the world to rejoice, but there is no comfort for the Rads. They holler for Maryland and claim a big victory because they carried it by 5,000 majority, a big slump in their vote of last fall. The Legis lature is probably Republican by a close share and Gorman beat for the Senate, but Democrats re member how he fought the Wil son Bill and they are shedding no tears over the defeat of this high protection gold-bug. In Ohio the Republicans made a desperate fight and spent a mint of money and saved McKiuley and Hanna’s own State by the hardest matter in the world. The majority is only half what it was last yerr and thoy only . claim a majority of four on joint ( ballot in the Legi slature. This in ; sure* Hanna's defeat for the Senate, as thero are tweivo Republican m riiLi-rs openly opposed to Hanna. Look at the difference between Bryan ’ s Srate and Me Kin ley’a. I bis year Nebraska's majority fur free silver is nearly twice what it wislastf .il. Dors (biit look like Bryani m w ® dead ? What is the matter with Kentucky, dear .four wo/? Is that 25,000 Democratic j majority down there what, you are j crowing over ? !’< rhsps your rocs ; tcra are for New York snd that 80,(K)0 Democratic majority ? Lnst fall McK inle? carried the Empire .State by 208,000. What a fall win there my countrymen! Hnre'y the Republican papers arc not crowing over glorious old Vir ginia »nd her old time majority of 5,t,000 ? Possibly the Rida are jubilant over earrv .rig Pennsylvania by a loss of 200,0* 0 majority, com pared with last fall ^ Yes, and they carried Iowa inis year by a f illing olf of 50,000 majority and Mas achuMetts by half the in ijority they had 1 *»l fall. Is that any thing to br..g about, dc «r Journal ? j Jf ihere is any place where the Ho publicans made guns or any place where the Democrats didn't make guns, will sumo Republican eu lighteu ui ? ST A IK iiAK ASSOCIATION. A tut ii ul Session Held ut tforgantowii 1 M»t \>vek. Tin* HiinrKtl meeting of the 1 *1 w \t is of tile .Slate, held at Morgan town I >81 week, was tins best st-nsion held jut, and was largely utteadvd and a pleasant uni profitable nf f'.ir. Thu annual address by tin* I’runiduiit, lion. 1*. J. C'rogan, of this pi »<v, js highly sp .ken of by those fortuunto enough to hear it md Tin; AltOUS Wants to publish it m the near future, if we can get i' from the Secretary. Mr. (’rogan discussed the laws paired by the L gtslaCtiro last winter and tho decisions of the Supremo Court • ince the list session of tho Bar AosoeiiHen. This w is very perti 1 nent and proper, and brought out considerable animated discussion from some of tho ablest attorneys present, till of them agreeing with tho President in tho main, except one, who reserved his speech of criticism for the banquet, instead of delivering it ut the regular ses sion of tho Association. Other wise the banquet was a pleasant affair. It was held at the Wallace j House and whs strictly n stag party. There is one matter we | cannot refrain from mentioning, and we do it entirely on our own responsibility and unbeknown to any members of the Association or of tl*o legal fraternity. Tho re ports sent out to the daily papers from Morgantown, speak of the banquet being “given by the local bar association,” when aa a matter of fact, the whole layout was paid out of the treasury of tho State Association, and the visiting mem bers paid for what they got while in Morgantown. At Wheeling and other places whero the meetings have beon held, tho local bar paid for the banquet and did it up handsomely. We do not belong to tho Association and wo have no kick to make, but since tho reports of tho affair sent out from Morgan town credit tho bar there with the banquet, and by tlicir silenco they seem tc accept it, we can not re frain from correcting tho matter and placing tho credit where it be longs. The association and an immense audienco, composed of the town people, liste ned to a splendid ad dress before the convention in com mencement hall, by Judge Seymour D. Thompson, of St. Louis, editor of the American Law Review, on the subject, “Judicial Supremacy.” At its conclusion, a banquet was held by tho association, where good things to eat and drink and witty toasts taken iu until tho small hours.

After tho banquet a special trnin left Morgantown about 1 a. m., for Fairmont, bearing tho visiting at tarneys away. D. G. Westcnhaver, of Murtins burg, was unanimously chosen president, and will be the youngest man who bus been given this honor in 1 he nssoci ition. James W.

Pickpocket Captured by W. .1. Bryan at Atchison Pleads Uuilty. Atchison, Kan., November 3.— James Lewie, the pickpocket who was captured by Wm. J. Bryan at hie meeting here September 10. to day entered a plea of guilty in tho district court and was sentenced to two years iu the State peuitcu tiary, the full extent of the law. Lewis is supposed to be tho lea der of a gang of pickpockets who had bceu following Mr. Bryan around the country. Mr. Bryan detected him with his hand in tho pocket of a gentleman and in an instant cellared the big muscular thief and held him at loast ten minutes, despite his strug gled and until tho otHoors could force themselves through the crowd and come to his assistance. Here is an interesting statement from the Fairmont Index. Under a recent decision of the Supremo Court of California, it has been established that a woman may he compelled to support her husband. This ruling of the court was confirmed by the host legal authority of the State, and was bised upon peculiar circumstances in the case. It was that of an elderly couple living iu Los Angeles county. The husband is so aged and infirm as to be unable to pro vide for himself, and not long ago was deserted altogether by his wif*. He brought suit against her for maintenance beforo the Supreme Court of the county, aiwl obtained a judgment, ordering the payment to himseif. of a monthly allowance of $24. Further than that, after an appeal, tho judgment has been affirmed by tho Supreme Court of tho State. THE COM'.BANK - BOLYAKI) FEUD. Tlw trial of Chris Bolyard for shoot ing John Colebnnk over in tlie edge of Barbour county recently, begins at Philippi to-day. It was reported that B >lj ard was dead also, but this was a mistake, as he is now rapidly recover ing and able to stand trial and expects to get clear on the ground of self de fease. Ho claims that Cole bank had sworn to kill him and tried hard to do it anti would have succeeded had he not shot, him in self defense. He has been conllned in the Philippi jail since the fight, and wns indicted last week by the Barbour county (Irnnd Jury for murder in first degree. The friends and relatives of John Colebnnk, the dead man, are very bitter against Bol yard and it is the general opinion that if he gets out, his life will not he worth much. Pat Colebnnk swears he will kill Bolyard and makes no secret of it, but openly boasts of it, and Pat i, considered a bad man to fool with, and it is lwiit ved that Bolyard will he found dead some time with a bullet in him, if he ever got a free, and no one will know who fired the shot. People will have their opinion, but no proof of it. Col ebank li.is not been back from the W'est vory long, where he went several years ago to escape prose cution for nearly killing a man over at the Old Dnnkard church, one night with a club.
