Common Sense and Common sleep.


FofiRigAlv RevieF
Fxcitsmsnt, worry and anxiety, which
have their seat in the brain, interfere with
the functions Of the stomach, and IN IKE
manner anything that untuly taxes the
power Of OF iTritates the stomach disorders
the circulation and nutrition Of the brain.
The sleeplessness often complained OF by
gouty persons Is due 10 the poisonous
effects Of the morbid material upon the
nervous system. Excessive smoking, too
much alcohol, tea and coffee, often re-
sorted to by overworked persons, are
frequent causes Of sleepleesness. In
all these cases the cause ia remoy-
able, while the effect may be count
erscted by appropriate treatment. Moth

than 10 continue the habits and TO have
recourse to drugs to combat the effects,
A due amount Of exercise tends to induce
normal sleep, and such exercise need not
be OF violent character, A walk OF two
or three miles daily is sufficient and ts,
perhaps, as much as busy man can ind
time Tor. A ride on horseback, the Pal
merston cure for govt, Is probably the best
form Of exercise for those whose minds
are constantly at work, 1t has been well
said that man must come out Of himself
when in the saddle; he Is forced to attend
to his horse and to notice the objects he
meets, Walking may be merely auto

Commencement Exercises of the Graded
sChOOi-A Highly Successful AFFAIR.
Correspondence Of he. inttlltqaIeer.
CLAREsBURo, June 14.-There has been
a round OF college and seminary COM
mencements in Clarksburg during the
past week, but none so successful or SO
highly applauded as that Of the graded
school, which took place on Wednesday
In the new Music Hall. Long before the
exercises commenced the house was
denssly packed and the crowd in and
about the entrances was SO great that the
doors were closed and policemen stationed
at them. In fact, although. every com.
menCement is but q repetition OF the one
Of the year before, the public interest in
them never fails, but rather expands with
each new one.
The rendition Of the programme OF ex-
erCises cannot be commended too highly
and spoke volumes for faithful work on
the part OF both teachers and pupils. The
frat part OF the programme was devoted
To the juniors who gave the charming lit
tie Cantata Quarrel among the Flowers"

As on every similar occasion, however,
the main interest conferred In the gradu.
ates. These were three In number, Miss
Alice Goodwin, Miss Minnie Biggs and
Charlie Bennett. The first essay read was
that Of Miss Biggs on Ambition Her
subject though lacking lovelty, was grace
fully handled.
Miss Goodwin's essay, "Despise Not the
Day Of Small Things," was both original
and effective. She was followed by Mr..
Bennett In his mastery Grafton, IA Mod.

ever, being interlarded with Rotations
and Choruses.
Colonel Harry Raymond, one Of the
board delivered the diplomas, with few
well chosen and graceful remarks on the
occasion and the progress Of the school.
The school has always maintained high
standard In every respect. The credit Of
this Is almost entirely due TO Mrs. Everett
the accomplished haad Of the classical
department. Mrs. Everet's reputation "a
an educator is not local one.

At this junCture there seems to have
been some bitterness Of feeling, Tor Arthur
brought suit To recover the alleged iewelfy.
He Get Up the plea that he had not given
the loCket 10 Martha. She was going to
have her photograph taken and he lent
her the bauble to adotn herself withal.

A Desperado,s Fate.

OMAHA, Neb., March 23.-The Burt Coun-
~ tragedy was ended during the night by
setting fire to the barn and shooting the
desperate. who had killed two men, wound.
ed several Others, and held at bay an
armed crowd of about two hundred
men for over forty hours. During
the darkness of the night some one in
the crowd crept up to shed adjoining the
barn and set fire to it. The caged murder
er, seeing that he was doomed, fired
twenty shots into the crowd in rapid sue
cession, but hitting no one. The crowd re-
turned the fire from Winchester
rifles from all sides OF the barn,
and the supposition is that the
murderer was killed before he could attempt
to make his escape. After the fire had
subsidized his dead body was found in a pile
of oats. Both arms and part of both
legs were burned off Part OF his head had
been shot away. and his body was COM
pletely riddled with bullets. The SUPPOSE
ton is that he was wounded in the leg
before he ran into the barn, and hence he
dfd not attempt to escape. The desperado's
right name was Allen Wright, aged about
twenty-eight years. His remains were
buried in a corn-field.
