THEY TnUsED-A MAN KNOCKED
SENsELEss. - Last night about s
O'Clock telegram was received stst-
ing that the bottom had fallen ons Of
the whole country and that every.
thing had broken loose and RUIZ Oh
to the Republican camp. Thereapon
the Philistines raised mighty war;
whoop and painted the town y color
approaching vermilion. They burnt
barrels and boxes enough to supply
the whole town with kindling wood
from now till June. They rang the
court house bell and George jackson
Sr. made speech. Some drums
were procured and procession was
organized. "Candy" Widows was
master Of ceremonies. Late in the
evening. Eliza Hennen, of Wades-
town. was hit on the back Of the
head and knocked senseless. He
was in town ON business, and was
standing at Caracas corner as a
small procession passed down the
street, when some one hit him blow
on the back Of the head with hand
ibilly knocking him senseless to the
ground. Student White picked him
up and and he soon gathered himself
together. 1t is not known certainly
who did the cowardly deed nor for
what cause. Hennen had followed
for Cleveland few times during the
evening and it has been thought it
was for that that he was assaulted,
though we hope this is mistake.
However the night seemed to be-
long to the Republicans and verify
they Unused.

BEHIND THE CURTAINS.
Echoes Heard and Shadow
Seen.

There is young lady in Morgan
town. There is a young man in the
country. The young man in the
country comes to see tue young lady
in town. Some time since there was
u church festival in the country and
the couple went. The young mans
mother happened to be there. Dur
ing the evening the young man took
the young lady by the arm, led her
gently to his mother and in tones ten
der and touching introduced her by
saying: Mother, this is my girl"
just then the curtains fell, with ap-
plause from the gallery. (The Whit
tier was in the gallery.)
Nv
interviewed the Gossip this morn
ing. She told me enough to ill ut
least As volumes, quarto, 500 pages
each. The stock OF acknowledge which
she keeps constantly on hand is w"n-
derful. She ought TO have been Sol
onions wife. Both political parties
are already negotiating witt her for
services in the next campaign. Well.
she told me she never talked about
her ncighbors like some people did.
Nov there 5 Mrs. -" ~h.. said,
"who does nothing but table from
morning till night. She has hardly
any friends. Look here" al CON
tinucd. .do you know there are just
lots of people in town who won't
speak to one another? It's shame.
Just think, now there's - and
- on - street who live right
there together and yet won't look at
each other. And they say its all
about nothing too. They are not the
only ones, either. The towns full Of
'em. Somebody is always quarreling.
If everybody were like me there
wouldn't be anything Of the kind.
Now, just the other day ! heard Of
two ladies becoming unified" at each
other just because one Of them re
marked to friend that the other
never kept her house clean. or some
thing of that kind. Too bad"
The Gossip seemed very much in
terested in another matter. She
wanted to know who composed the
Senior class at the University. She
had heard that as class they 60 in
to society very little and wondered
why it was that the underclassmen
and the preps had a monopoly Of
that kind of business. l suggested
that perhaps the Seniors had great
deal Of work to do and that public
performances are coming on, this ex
PLANTATION seemed to satisfy the old
lady somewhat but she put ques-
ton to me which have not been able
to answer up to this hour. She
wanted to know if the Seniors have
more work to do than is usual with
the Senior class of other years. Then
all was silent and l retired to pri-
vate life. VISITOR.

Queens Opinion.

What a peculiar feeling is exper-
fenced by Americans the first time
they gaze upon royalty. Here, in
this free country. where every citi
zen is king and every mother a
queen, peep at royalty or titled
princes and potcntates does not come
very often. Morbid curiosity often
leads our citizens to act IN n manner
unbecoming to their high estate. Pc
runa is fast making its way through.
out the land and is becoming known.
Everywhere that it is used by the
sick and afflicted, it makes wonderful
cures, and is given all the praise for
its good work.
j. NJ. Queen writes from Johnstown,
w. Va, that he has been sorely af-
flicted for several years, but he was
urged to try Peruna, which he did,
and he now feels that he is about
over his trouble, and considers it the
greatest medicine in the world. He
says he has to go or send distance
Of fifteen miles to obtain Peruna,
but it will repay him for this. Ask
for it at the nearest drug store.

We notice by the election returns
from Monongalia and Richie coun.
ties, that the Democratic candidate
for State Superintendent Of Schools
ran far ahead of his ticket in his
own county, whilst the Republican
candidate ran behind his. This is a
very suggestive fact, and shows the
opinion entertained Of the respective
qualifications of the two nominees
for this important office by those
Who knew them best. In Monongalia
county, the home Of the Democratic
candidate, Prof. Morgan, the Repub-
lican majority for Governor was S6l.
but for Superindent only 1926; while
IN Richie, the home Of Mr.. Kendall,
the Republican majority on Governor
wax 5O8, and on Superintendent 272.
In other words, the Republican ma
jority on Governor In these two coan-
ties was 1863, while Mr.. Kcndalrs
was only sos, so that in his own and
in his opponents county Mr.. Morgan
ran III votes ahead Of his ticket

The Hon. Charles j. Faulkner,
whose death, at his home in Martins
burg, is announced, was, perhaps,
the most distinguished citizen of the
New State. His public career. which
extended through long period Of
years, was not only brilliant but EN-
inently successful. He was states
man Of whom the commonwealth
might indeed feel proud, gentleman
whose learning gave him rank among
the most accomplished scholars of
the time, and patriot than whom
there was no truer one in all the land.
Mr.. Faulkner was honored, not only
at home, but abroad. As a citizen
he exemplified the immortal utter
ance Of Lincoln by .practicing the
rule of "malice toward none, but
charity for ALL" and as a politician,
whether before the people or in the
halls oflcgislation, whether by tongue
or pen, he labored honestly and ear.
estly for those principles of govern
ment which the illustrious founders
of his party proclaimed in the infancy
Of tho republic. There are few, in
deed, worthy to wear the mantle
which he has laid aside to enter that
mysterious land which lies beyond
the brittle lines Of lie, BY his death
the State has lost one Of its worthiest
citizens and the nation wise states-
man T'iynes.

FIRST RETURNS!
Democratic Prospects Assuring.
But Later News Spoil 1t All.

ION office on Tuesday night. They
were full Of promise and hence We
smiled. When later returns came in
they didn't look so promising:
New YORK, Nov. 4.-The vote in
this city is very heavy, and there is
great deal of scratching in this
city on city and county tickets.
The vote will probably be about
222, 900.
The Herald bulletins say both sides
claim New Hampshire.
The indications are that Cleveland's
majority in the city will be from 35,-
900 to 10000.
The Sun bulletin says indications
are that Cleveland has carried New
York State.
The Herald says the Republicans
claim that the State outside of New
York and Brooklyn has gone Repub-
lican by $4,000 majority.
One hundred and seventy seven
election districts in Brooklyn out Of
two hundred and eighteen districts
show Cleveland's majority to be
ll,135.
The Mail and Express says Rob-
inson, Republican, Governor of Mas
sachusetts, is reelected, and says
Grant is elected Mayor Of New York
City by 10000.
The World claims the State for
Cleveland by 10000 and the Mail
and Express claims it for Blaine by
1000.
The Sun says Cleveland has car
ried the State by 10000 to 10000.
Cleveland carries Kings county by
10000 majority. Blaine carried but
one ward in Brooklyn.
The Times bulletin of 298 election
districts in the State gives Blaine
39,664; Cleveland 54'196.
New YORK, Nov. 1.-Two hundred
and fifty-four election districts out
of 1894 in New York State outside
of New. York and Brooklyn give
Blaine 50, 1856; Cleveland, 1900; But
Ter, 1917; St. John, 1905, net Dem
ocratic gain of 1928. Returns from
most of the Republican districts in
the City of New York show gains for
the Democratic national ticket, while
returns from the Democratic portions
of the city show Democratic losses,
Hewitt is undoubtedly elected to
Congress from the Tenth district by
5000 majority. In the Eleventh as
sembly district Garfield's majority of
1882 is reduced to 222. In the Sew
enth assembly district Garfield's ma
jority of l,440 disappears and Cleve-
land has majority of ST. In the
Sixteenth assembly district Han
cocks majority of 1880 is reduced to
2,70O Pulitzer is elected from the
Ninth Congressional district by an
immense majority.
Three hundred and nine districts
in the State out of one thousand nine
hundred and ninety six give Blaine
78,2O2; Cleveland 1864; Butler g.
1893; St. John 4,482, a gain for Cleve-
land of 1880 over 1880. If this con.
tinues his gain in the State will be
$4,000 to 100000
The Herald says three hundred
and eighty districts give Cleveland
2S,657 majority, and at present the
outlook gives him New York State by
$4,000 majority.
The Herald says Mueller, Viele,
Cox, Adams, Pulitzer, Hewitt and
Dowaney, all Democrats, are surely
elected to Congress.
Four hundred and thirty election
districts out Of 7l2 give Blaine S.
949; Cleveland 1851; Butler 1876;
st. John II.

and the political problem solved for
the next four years let the citizens Of

need improved streets. buildings re-

didate, was the prlncipal OF the
defeated candidates of I848, when
Zachary Taylor was elected. Cass
had been distinguished in both the
military and civil service of his
country, had been Senator, Secre-
tary of War and Minister to France.
and returned to the Senate after his
defeat for the Presidency, winding
up his career as Buchanan's Secre-
tary of State.
In 1852 the Wings again put up
a military hero, Winfield Scott.
The leading parties were anxious
to avoid the slavery question, which
was then tugging at the bonds Of
Union, and the Wings were afraid
to nominate the man of their hearts,
Daniel Webster, while Lewis Cass
would have been the Democratic
nominee but for his former defeat.
The gallant Scott was defeated and
Franklin Pierce, whose mediocre
talents made him perhaps safer
ruler for those agitated times, was
chosen. John p. Hale was the
Free Soil candidate. and received
about half the popular vote that
had been given to Van Buren,.
Scott was every inch soldier, the
son of a Revolutionary Captain.
His letters gave his friends as much
trouble almost as Blaine's now give
his supporters, although, unlike
Blaine's, they were not written
to be burned. Scott claimed to
be greatly relieved BY his defeat.
