pathetic in manner. he seldom failed
to convince the Judgment and move
the unpreju6iced heart to Christ"

to grammatical blunders, toothache,
typographical errors and lapses of

LIE CADET SbtfS l. hlf 10 ONlt'N-
TowN.--A few weeks ago it so hap
pcncd that the people of Uniontown
extended an invitation to the w. V.
u. G. &. to participate in the ecre-
monies Of Decoration Day. Permis-
sion was given by the Faculty to
accept the Invitation, and thereupon
the cadets began to assume more
erect carriage and SITTER upper lip,
and to make yarions other little prep
arations to display themselves. The
general opinion Of the corps was that
marching ms far as Fairchance would
be the only proper and soldicr-like
thing. So at A o'clock on the morn
ing Of the Goth the battalion reported
at the head of Main street, cantecns
and haversacks OH their backs, all
ready for the twenty mile tramp.
Scrg. Lawson, who was sick, was the
only man absent.
At 4:15 the command to march was
given and the column started out the
Uniontown road, colors flying and
music playing. MIN Protzman, Milt
Baker, John MADEIRA and John Gregg
went along TO help supply the latter
indispensable. Last and not least
in the procession was Harry Clark.
The march, cnlivened as it was by
singing, yelling, &c, produced some
startling effects on the Inhabitants
of the land. Cheat river was made
by o'clock. A halt was called at
Spring where dinner and a rest
were taken. Here Romine and Yost
threw up the sponge and piled into
Mr.. Franks carry-all. IS
Fairchancc greeted our eyes lit
tie after II. 2:45 saw us on the IN
iontown train. The corps was es-
corted from the depot to the Armofy
by squad from company G. 10th
Penna. N. G.
The cadets were assigned to var
ious hotels by a committee Of citizens.
Nine o'clock next morning saw the
bows drawn up in readiness to join
the procession to Oak Grove cemetery.
The long line OF soldiers, G. A. II.
posts, secret orders DC. left the court
house at 10 o'clock. On arriving at
the cemetery the procession marched
to that part or the ground set apart
for the soldiers and were drawn up
in several lines around the large and
imposing SOLDIERS Monument" AT.
ter few appropriate exercises had
been completed and the graves dec
grated, the orator Of the day, Hon. j.
M. Hagans, of this place, was intro
duced, and entertained the crowd in
a style too familiar to the citizens
of Morgantown to need description.
The speech over, the boys returned
to town and dinner. Drill and dress
parade for an hour in the afternoon
completed the days work.
The corps did itself credit. Every
body was pleased, especially the old
soldiers. Tue evening was employed
as each one thought best.
Capt. Fleming is said to have made
a very violent mash at the fair
ground dance.
On Saturday morning the TAB
train took the boys back to Fair
chance. That evening saw them
home again, foot sore and weary, but
well satisfied with their trip.
The affair was one of the best adj
vertisemcnts the University could
have had and will bear fruit next
fall. CADET.

An old man named Darling appeared

Our account of the capture of the two
horse thieves, Baker and Despane, at
Fort Washakie, did not go far enough.
The arrests were made as a matter of fact
by Arthur Sparhawk, of this city, who
is at present in the service of the Stock
association, in the capacity of detective,
and is also a special deputy sheriff. 1t was
true as stated hat Thomson worked the
case up and went to Fort Washable after
the prisoners, but Sparhawk had caught
and arrested them and they were in irons
at the Fort when Thomson reached that
place. Sparhawk, as we are informed, 6
entitled to, and receives much credit from
the association for the part he has played
in this matter.

This Evenings Performance.

Charlotte Thompson, supported by a
strong company, will this evening present
at the Opera House a revised Jane Eyre
which is said to have delighted every au-
dience before which it has been played.
The company comes here from Denver
where they played a very successful en-
gagement, The Denver Times says: In
this renowned play Charlotte Thompson
and her capable company re-opened the
Academy of Music last night. There was
a large audience composed of Denver's
best people. Miss Thompson's Jane
Eyre has won a deserving wide reputa-
ton, and all that can be said of it must
be in praise, AS the abused orphan she
captured the sympathy of the audience at
the outset, and she increased it step by
step to the happy end of her troubles.
She is one of the best actresses who have
visited Denver, and each appearance here
has made her a greater favorite. Her
company is an efficient me.

NoRToN,s CASE.
Ills Intended Victim on.y seven Year
of Acc.

In the case of James Norton, who was
the party alluded to in Sunday mornings
LEADER as having committed a felonious
assault upon some little girls, a complaint
was sworn to and filed before Judge Lee,
charging him with an assault with intent
to commit a rape, but the defendant was
MT arraigned. 1t was understood that
he was making arrangements to employ
counsel, and the prosecution did not care
to force him to take any step in the case
until he was prepared to do so and could
be represented by attorneys when he ap-
pears in court. 1t is stated that the lady
who swears to the complaint does so very
reluctantly, for the reason that she dis
likes to have the child who ii is claimed
was assaulted brought into court. 1t
transpires now that it was the youngest
child of the three, who is only seven years
Of age, who was Norton intended victim;
but whether there are not two sides to the
story in this case, as in most others, re-
mains to be seen. Norton's case will be
called up at 10 o'clock this morning.
