Our Lewis County Letter.


WESTON, April It'll, 1s86.-0ur
stream, the West Fork of the Monon-
gala river, has been full, flooding
the lower parts of the town. An
immense quantity of logs have gone
out to market, and the return of
money value for fall and winter la
Dor must make many families happy.
In this wilderness region the lumber
is the greatest harvest. 1t is not
unusual to find individuals holding
from one to ten thousand acres of
land with but little if any cleared.
AT the rate, however, at which it is
being removed, many now living will
see West Yirginia's mountains and
hills Invested of its values in that
respect, and much of it brought into
cultivation or utilized in raising and
feeding stock. Almost every por-
ton of this high region produces
blue grass. The other perennial
grasses, such as clover and timothy,
grow to perfection, and farmers are
beginning to sow Hungarian and
millet for winter forage. Our state
and county authorities should en-
deavor to secure emigration and set
Elements of a good class of foreign
ers, Swiss or German, if possible, as
they are as class, thrifty and do
nestle, and our State would become
the vineyard of the country. Helve-
tia, in Upshur county, which few
years ago was wilderness, is now
blooming and blossoming with hap
ply, contented and thriving settle
ment of Swiss and German citizens.
Operations in erection of new an
mex building, collection of material
and preparations for completion is
making some progress, and in a short
time it is supposed work of construc-
ton will commence. This building
is now full, and as one patient goes
out another is brought in. Yester-
day one gentleman was brought in
from Point Pleasant, who was very
insane. He had been former resi-
dent of Parkersburg, and although
not having seen an acquaintance for
a number of years, he at once recog-
nized and spoke to him. That is
something about insanity that most
ssxsFrwarEvsnz eassefs faisc-
individuals may be very insane and
to some extent unable to speak
lucid word, yet will retain know
ledge Of individuals and circumstan-
ces very wildly Patients from
Berkeley and adjoining counties are
in fair state Of health.
One lady patient escaped from the
End story by breaking the bars in
window and making swing out of
bed clothes. She went into the town
and stopping at the house of Father
Tracy, was cared for and returned
to the asylum, being very much dis
appointed, as she supposed she would
go off on the cars in the morning. 1t
appears that while out walking she
secured rock which she used in
breaking the bars Of the window.
Spring cleaning is now the order
of the day. All are engaged in clean
ing up and embarrassing the base
ment departments, it being too wet
for outside employment, and some
engaged oiling hall floors and wash
ing off walls of rooms.
Our dairyman, Mr.. Davis, reports
favorable increase in quantity OF
milk supply; also improvement in
stock. From Is cows, the yield for
March was $50 gallons.

THE OLD, OLD STORY.

To church the two together went.
Both doubtless on devotion bent;
The parson preached with fluent ease
On Pharisees and Sadducees,
And as they homeward slowly walked,
The lovers on the sermon talked
And he-he deeply loved the maid
In soft and tender accents said:
"Darling, do you think that we
Are Pharisees and Saddccees y
She flashed on him her bright black eyes
In one swift look of vexed surprise,
And thus he hastens to aver
He was her constant worshippef;
"But, darling, / insist, said be,
."That you are very fair-I-see.
/ know you don't care much for me.
And that makes me so sad-yon-see.

Monster Skull and Bones.

Gainesville, Ga, April THE
water has receded from the Tumlin
mound field, and has left uncovered
acres of skulls and bones. Some of
these are gigantic. If the whole
frame is in proportion to two thigh
bones that were found, their owner
must have stood fourteen feet high.
Many curious ornaments of shell,
brass and stone have been found.
Some of the bodies were buried in
small vaults built of stones. The
whole makes mine of archaeological
wealth. A representative of the
Smithsonian institution is here in
yestigating the curious relics.

Speaking as lawyer and from
lawyers standpoint General Butler is
of the opinion that the President is
bound to give his reasons for remov
ais to the Senate. He holds that the
power of removal is only in the SEN
ate under the Tenure of Office act,
and therefore they have every right
to learn why they should remove an
officer who has shown himself to be
proper officer, and he rightly adds
that little common sense will stand
in the place OF a good deal Of argu-
ment in discussing the dispute be-
tween the President and the Senate.

WILD WATERS AND NERVE Many
were the trying positions in which the
railroad men were placed during the
past two weeks of floods and washonts,
but that of Capt. VIM. Blackwell of this
city, was exceedingly exciting and haz-
ardous Whilst sweeping over the iron
rails at rapid speed, the engine dash
ed into some four feet Of water, which
covered the track on this side of Oca
noko. The speed Of the train was slack
ened, until the water was safely passed
through. Then again the train went
laundering along in its course, only
to be stopped in like style at Sir Johns
and Cherry Run. Although the mad
dened river burst in wild rage over its
banks and swept Kissing along beneath,
Mr.. Blackwell's nerve never left him
once and he came into this city, wearing
his usual bland smile. Martinsburg
and the B. & o. r. r. have worthy
representative in him.

not tremble at it's name. You awake and
find your darling vainly struggling for
breath; the harsh rasping cough strikes
terror to your quivering nerves. Some
thing must be done quickly, as the deadly
membrane is fast cutting off the little ones
breath. Parents, provide yourself with a
bottle of DuLac's swiss BALsoM,o the
Great Cough Remedy for children, and its
use will cause the croupy cough to loosen,
the dangerous membrane that was form

and in few moments your child Will be

able remedy is sold by A. M.Gilbert, drug
gist, and country dealers, at % and 70

Should BE Done Here.

A few days ago Capt Smith issued
instructions to the officers to arrest
all street walkers found out after dark,
and in compliance with the order the
police force have beeu keeping q look
out for the depraved women who are
so often to be met with upon the
streets in the evening. Officer Wal
son arrested five women in the sec
ond ward Wheeling Register.
Such a law passed by the council
and enforced by our officers, would
be of great benefit to our town.
