aland Chief

THIS celebrated stallion will make the
i season of 1888 at his stable near the
mouth of crooked creek, upon the fol-
lowing terms: Ten dollars for each SER
vice; twenty dollars for the season with
no privilege of return, or thirty dollars
to insure. Persons wishing to avail
themselves of the service of this horse
should signify their intention to breed
at an early date, as he win be limited
this season tn less number of mares
than he has heretofore served in aiiy,sea-
son for the last three years. During the
season of 1897, Highland Chief became
standard, through the performance of
his colts, and is now registered as a
standard Horse No. 1927, in Wallace
Trotting Register. Upon information
derived from the same source it can be
asserted of Highland Chief that he is
the first Horse in West Virginia to make
himself standard through his COILS
This fact alone will be sufficient recom-
inendation to horscmen, and is an ac-
complishlnentw which does not require
any comment to establish the reputa-
ton of any Horse who performs it.
Mares kept at $500 per week Accidents

Power of .Guarantee Companies

''The guarantee companies WELD an
enormous power. For instance, we bond
every man on the Gould system of rail-
roads. We had to look up the record of
every n of them. Our investigation is
very searching rs to a mans record and
habits. We will not bond one who can
be called u drinking man. 1t isn't a
question of total abstinence, but If a man
is known to get under the influence of
liquor he is toe bad arisk for us. II he
has stolen in n place we will not bond
him in another. Once a thief, always a
thief is our principle, and though it
seems o little severe we cannot escape it.
The wedding out process was carried on
with vigor, and man whom we wouldn't
bond had to go. 1t was a great respon-
sibility, and sometimes no doubt we
made mistakes. A mans personal enc
mics would sometimes traduce him and
deceive us. When we found that such
an injustice had been done we bestirred
ourselves in earnest, and you can he sure
that the injured man got a place on the
road at least as good as the one he had
lost. Through this investigation the per-
centage of stealing has been greatly re.

Pyrogravure is a new method OF en-.

upon paper.
