mains of Henry Oder, father of the
editor hereof, lie on the summit of the
Blue Ridge, at Linden. in Manassas
gap, Va, whence the family removed
ten or twelve years ago. A recent
suggestion by distant member took
shape and has been perfected in
memorial designed partly to show that
though in most instances far removed
from the grave, the final resting-place Of
the dead parent has neither been aban.
doned nor forgotten. Accordingly the
work was placed in the hands of ]. B.
Williams, of this place--but we will
let Contributor" writing from Lin
den, Va, Aug. %, to the Front Royal
(Va.) Sentinel tell the story:
The surviving children of the late Henry
Oder have recently erected a very pretty mon
ument over his remains at this place. 1t is
an Italian marble structure of unpretentious
design, consisting of base. sub-base, die,
plllltIl anu ~ HtISut, Nd-
ken altogether feet inches. The sub-base
bears upon its western face in raised block
letters the name, Oder while the die, neat
ly moulded and paneled by the artists clsel,
carries on its eastern face the inscription:
TO the memory of Henry Oder this monu-
ment is erected by his children.
The dates of birth and death appear respect
lively on the southern and northern sides of
the die.
The grave and monument are enclosed by
substantial iron fence and are within the
bounds of the lot set apart by our Methodist
friends as the site of their proposed new
church.
The builder of the monument, Mr. John B.
Williams, of Frostburg, Md, was here Au-
gust 1lth to 18th to superntend its erection
but it not arriving in time he was compelled
toreturn home and leave it for others to COM
plete, but he had prepared his work with such
precision that those whom he left to erect it
had no difficulty. Mr.. Williams may well be
proud of his work for it shows the builder is
a master in his line.
The gentleman to whom Mr.. vii
liams left the completion of his work
was E. J. Hotchkiss, father of DR..
George E. Hotchkiss. popular young
physician of Barton. this county.

THEY WILL DANCE.

Elder Harrison Will smile on the Iuau-
. gural Ball.
INDIANAPOLIS, December 30.-The
Journal will tomorrow devote a column
editorial to the coming inaugural, especial
ly with regard to the inaugural ball and the
clamor that certain ministers of the Gospel
are making through the press over the
''sin" of dancing. AfGer reciting with
what pomp and circu xstance General
Washington was insugurated one hundred
years Bgo, the Journal concludes:
but the ball; there's the rub. The
preaCheis-tbat is, some sort OF preachers
are in dreadful distress about that, and
are urging General Harrison to rise to the
occasion, and place the seal of his dissp-
proval upon the dance, the awful, the
wicked, the demoralizipg dance, by either
forbidding it or not grazing it with his
presence. Geaeral Harrison ia a pronoun.
ced Christian man. His Christian charac.
ter is ola fibre strong and sturdy, and yet,
We believe entirely courteous and Christ
like. We DO not believe that General
Harrison will lead the german, or march
with some leader of fashion in q stately
in-nuet, as did Ger erGl WashiagtoB, whose
meme;y is not mathematical because
ne did - But General Harrison il not
likely 10 repeat the folly of attempting, ss
President of the Uai,ei States, to dictate
or to regulate the social alasners and Gus
toms Of Lixty.fvs millions Of people. His
official and psrScaAl influence will be on
the side of good morals, of n sound life
conducted on sound principles. The evils
of the dance and the ball loom, whatever
they may be, would not be lessened by any
action on the part Of General Harrison or
Of sby one slse, which would smack more
Of boorishness than of morality.

Special Telegram to Tie Register.
PARKERsBURe, W. Va, December 30
Tonight DR.. J. W. Carter preached his
farewell sermon in the Baptist church of
TINS city. For quarter of a century DR..
Carter has preached to the people he is now
about to leave, and during this period has
placed himself in the very front ranks Of
Baptist clergyman. An exceptionally large
audience wac present Tonight to hear the
last words of the reverend gentleman.
Much feeling was manifested oa the part
OF the pastor and people. DR.. Carter out
side Of the pulpit has been q distinguished
cirizsD. In all public matters he was ag-
gressive and fearless. Though in many re-
spects an eccentric mar, the earnestness
and sincerity Of his efforts, coupled with
his dominant will power and high intel
lectual standing attained for him universal
respect.
His new field Of labor to vchich with
bis family he departs on Tuesday is at
Raleigh, N. G. The church is said to be
one Of much prominence in the. South. In
the departure Of Mr.. Carter, the regret
that is felt is shared in no small part by
the general public, who wish for him
abundant success in his new home. 1t is
not yet known who will occupy the pulpit
now made vacsnt, though the church
authorities will fill the vacancy az soon as
practicable.

Witnesses Summoned Before the Federal
Grand jury.
PARKERsBURG, W. VA, December 80
I have Information that United States Dis
triCt Attorney General Watts, CT the Dis
trics of West Virginia, is actively engaged
in investigating the frauds of this district
in the late Federal election. As result q
that investigation he has directed the sum-
moning before the Federal Grand Jury
of a large number of witnesses. The
Grand Jury will sit in this city January
10. The evidence will develop that q
large amount of Doodle was distributed
in West Virginia, and it is fully believed
that the jury will be able TO trace it in
such 8 way as to compromise some of the
leading politicians not only OF this State,
but outside Of it. II is also alleged and
will doubtless be proved that large num-
Der of illegal and fraudulent votes were
polled in some of the mining regions of the
State by the importation of colored people,
as well IS the importation OF people from
the State of Pennsylvania into the Wheel
ing district, who were said to have been
sent by leading Republican of the city Of
Pittsburg Pa. As to how these things
may turn ont no one outside of the official
circles can safely venture an opinion, but
one thing is certain, that the frauds upon
the Fedsial election will be fully investi-
gated, without reference to party convic-
tions, rae or color.

4 STARTLING STORY.
Report ofs Great Uprising In the City of
Mexico

| IA hsaaS AZ tho WY "
Mexico.
FL PAsO, TEXAS, December 3O.-E
Paso is greatly excited Of the details of the
news that have just been received of the
clerical rising in the City of Mexico and
the utter and bloody defeat of the clericals
that took place yesterday.
At seven o'clock Thursday night, it
seems, Father Jose Casper, a well-known
priest, hurried to the National palace and
asked an immediate and secret conferer ce
with President Disz.
What he disclosed is rot known, but O
few minutes afterwsrd warrants of arrest
we're made out for o large namber of prom
inent people, but when the officers went
after them not one of them could be found.
At eleven o'clock that night an i'm
mense mob attacked tie National Palace,
Joined and reinforced by the gsrrisors of
at least three barracks and some parks of
artillery. The conflict was fierce and
bloody, but the Government held its own
aud gained the victory.
Three Generals and several high officers
were killed. The Government took over
two thousand prisoners at the first fight
ing. Seveny-two priests were among the
slain, which numbered during the first on
slaught two hundred and fifty.
Next day two hundred additional priests
were arrested and ordered to be shot,
among them the Archbishop A number
Of women got petitions to have them re-
proved, but it is not thought that they
met with success.
Great excitement prevails in Chihuahus,
where Governor Laura Carrsllo called at
once the State Legislature together and or
dered sill priests to be arrested. 1t seems
TO have been the last effort OF the clerical
party against the Government.
