one OF the urearloSt rains ever
known is upon us now, and every
one is wishing for clear weather.
Farmers will be very much re-
tarded in their farming. Our old
village looks quite desolate, and
it is no wonder. The little stream
running through ii has been SUBJ
ject to frequent rises and some-
times they are quite sudden. One
of the recent ones drowned an
army of chickens for one OF our
enterprising citizens. If he had
not been IA church member he
would have said cuss words some
say he did anyhow.
The week has witnessed the de-
parture of several from our midst
Mr.. II. Williams and sisters left
for the Empire State. Miss Nellie
Timberlake for the beautiful plains
of Illinois TO attend a seminary
there, and Miss Ida Likens en-
barked on the broad sea of matri-
mony. A Gerardstown gentleman
was the favored one. We extend
hearty congratulations and hope
full measure Of happiness may
be realized by both, that life's
pathway, as trod together, may be
strewn with bright flowers, and
that that peace and joy which IL
the reward of the true and faithful
may be there's in time and eter-
nifty. Some of the boys wear the
green willow now.
We notice among the arrivals
our old friend, DR.. A. b. thinner
man, who is looking quite well,
and seems to be meeting with the
success his talent and efforts merit.
Our old friend B. 3. Hollis sue
cumbed to the "dread monster"
and passed peacefully away Sab
bath afternoon, Sept. 18th. He
was a man of generous impulses,
and leaves behind him many
friends. We hear his widow will
leave her old village home and
take up her abode with her
daughter, Mrs. Foster, in Wash
Ington.
A great apathy is apparent in
the political world. Why we cam
not conceive, as the approaching
election is one of great interest to
the people at large. Probably by
the day of election we may get
fixed up. We hope sincerely good
and competentmen may be chosen
for the several positions. Our
young friend James w. MeKown
Is well endorsed here. Whilst
many would have been glad to see
the old war-horse, b. f, Brady,
succeed himself, they fully realize
that Mr.. McKoWn is gentleman
of more than ordinary ability, and
who will make us a representa-
tive Of whom we may well be
proud. We hope TO see him tri-
umphantly elected The Office of

The mills at Ironton, Ohio /;
Ashland. Ky, and Clifton, w.
Va, will be started on Monday, at
1915 for pudding, or twenty-five
cents more than is paid at Pitts
burg. This will leave only eight
mills in the Wheeling district
still idle. The difference in cost
to manufacturers between Pitts
burg prices and what puddlers at
Wheeling want is In favor of
Pittsburg, and Wheeling manu-
facturers say this difference must
be reduced to a Pittsburg basis be-
fore they will begin at Wheeling.
1t is estimated that five hundred
Wheeling millmen will seek work
in other factories before the mid
die of next week.
