During the past spring and summer our
Southern brethren have thrOnged into
Colorado, and after climbing our peaks,
exploring our canyons and snowballing In
midsummer to their hearts content, re-
turned delighted with our scenic attrac-
tons, and charmed by the spirit of hearty
hospitality with which they were wei
coined. Now it should be our duty, and
a pleasant one, to return these visits.
The Fort Worth railroad has given us the
opportunity. Their advertising depart.
ment has Just issued a pamphlet entitled
Winter Tourist Routes and Rates from
the Summit to the Sea-" giving reduced
excursion rates for this winter season and
a number of different outes through the
South.
Uoloradoans cannot Justly plead the
necessity of escaping from a severe winter,
but many of them would be pleased with
the change to a semi-tropical climate
where the flowers ~perpetually bloom, and
a visit to places of such historic interest
as Houston, Austin, Galveston, San An
tonic or New Orleans. Or, if they should
wish stranger or more tropical chimes,
these routes include a trip to such interest
ing old places as Monterey, Saltillo and
the City of Mexico. Full particulars may
be obtained by addressing Geo. Ady, gem
eral passenger and ticket agent of the

Speak Well Of the Teacher.

Here is a sensible suggestion from
an exchange. Parents should be
extremely careful about any unwar-
ranted language about the teachers
of the schools. 1t poisons the minds
of the young and their success in
school is destroyed to some extent.
The teachers should be upheld and
encouraged and then the children
will respect and obey them, but let
the parents begin talking to or in
the presence of their children in a
disrespectful way, the usefulness OF
that teacher is destroyed and the
young led at least a step in the
wrong direction. Parents, be care
full of what you say of others, lest
you set an example before your chill
dren that will cause them to appear
ill bred and mean,

Deputy U. S. Marshall VanBuren
to-day arrested Col. j. S. Mcdonald,
a prominent worker in the Republi-

aid, together with Dick Hardwick,
Dute" Hicks and L. Rarick, who
have been summoned as witnesses,
will leave tomorrow morning for
Parkersburg to appear in the U. S.

From what we can learn Melon

DIR. TOM PRICE In A FOG.
Pulling For the Shore and the Marriage
Altar.
PHILADELPHIA Record Jan 10.

The road to the marriage altar is
often dark but Is 10 seldom the path
way is so clouded in fog that those
who seek the place become lost.
Such was the experience of DR..
Thomas Ii. Price, of Bridesburg,
and Miss Margerie NJ. Morris, of
Newark, N. j. They had a thrilling
experience in trying to find the mar
riage altar on Thursday night.
DIR. Price and Miss Morris took a
Pennsylvania railroad train, rode to
Bristol, walked down to the wharf
and secured boatman to row them
across the Delaware river to Burling
ton, where no horrid marriage licenses
trouble hearts that long to beat in
unison. The dense fog that hung
over the water upon that night might
have deferred project of less i'm
portance, but the determined couple
had we;ghty purpose in view.
The boatman pulled hard on his
oars and shot out into the uncertain
mist. He kept on pulling but the
Jersey shore seemed to come no
nearer. Moments fled as the oars
dipped and the boatmah tugged.
Eyes were strained for glimpse of
the shore that persistently declined
to loom up. Matters were getting
desperate. Two hours elapsed, but
still the boatman pulled Blisters
were on his hands, perspiration rolled
down his back in a stream and drop
ped from the rim of his hat. A faint
round disc, far off in space, repre-
scented the mist-obscured moon.
Miss Morris was brave, patient, but
a little nervous. and DR.. Price COM
forted her as best he could. The
dampness was pervading their cloth
ing, and the chill night air made
them SILVER All at once a puff of
wind sent the mist-cloud flying, the
moon shone out clear and beautiful,
the welcome Jersey shore was dis
covered, and the boatman made a
vigorous pull and reached it just as
the clocks were tolling midnight.
Rev. Eli Clifford was aroused from
stumble q few moments after that,
and the couple on the front stoop
saw real white cap poked out of
second story front window. Few
words were necessary to explain mat
tiers. A few seconds later the par
sonage door was opened, and the
dominic appeared slightly the worse
for a hasty toilet The ceremony
was performed, and DR.. and Mrs.
Price found quartars in a hotel in
Burlington.
The Philadelphia Pgess's Burling
ton reporter says of the above roman
tic episode:
REV. Eli Clifford, pastor of the
Union street Methodist Church, had
somewhat novel experience last
night. He was awakened about
midnight by the violent ringing of
his front doorbell. On descending
the stairs and opening the door to
ascertain the cause he was confronted
by man and woman, who announc-
ed their names as Dr. Thomas II.
Price, of Philadelphia, and Miss
Margerie M. Morris, of Newark, and
stated that they had come to get
married
"The marriage ceremony was hasti-
ly performed when the couple de-
parted for the town wharf, where
they engaged boatman to row them
across the river to Bristol to take
the train for Philadelphia"

Death Of a Furmer Fairmont Lawyer.
West Virginian.

James Neeson, ESQ.,, who once re-
sided in this place, having lived in
the house now owned and occupied by
Sylvanus w. Hall, Esq, on Monroe
street, died at his home In Richmond,
Va, at 6:15 a. m. last Saturday. Mr..
Neeson was born in Ireland Februa-
ry 2, 1922, but came to this country
with his parents settled in Western
Pennsylvania, and he was educated
there. He studied law in Morgan
town under Fox Alden, and began
the practice of it at Pruntytown,
whence he afterwards removed to
this place, where he resided until the
breaking out of the late war. Mr..
Nelson's talents soon drew public
attention to him. and he was for
years Prosecuting Attorney Of this
county. He was elected member
of the convention of 1850 that framed
the new State Constitution of that
year. About the year 1856 Mr.. Nee
son was elected to the Senate of Vir-
ginia, in which body he served up to
and (by elections in the army dur
ing the war. On his way to Rich
mond in June, 1861, he was captured
by the Federal troops and held a
prisoner at Prunty town until releas
ed by company of cavalry sent to
his rescue by Colonel Porterfield.
At the close of the war he resum-
ed the practice of his profession, but
did not return to West Virginia. He
made his home in Richmond. He
continued to practice law for per-
haps fifteen years after the war clos
ed, but for the last eight or ten years
of his life lived upon his income from
other sources.
Mr.. Neeson married Sarah Jane,
daughter of Matthew Gay, Esq, of
Morgantown. Mrs. Neeson died in
Richmond some years ago. Mr..
Neeson has at present number of
relatives living in the vicinity of
Fairmont. His surviving children
are Mrs. E. H. Smith, Jr., Mrs. Thorn
as L. Niche, Miss Matte and Miss
Julia Neeson. His son, William
Gay Neeson, died few years ago
For years past Mr.. Nelson's health
was anything but good, and since
last August he had been unable to
leave his room except on few occa-
sions. His disease was probably
consumption, but he was hurt at the
Capitol disaster-an injury to the
back-and from time to time there
was recurring trouble from this
source. A few days ago it became
apparent that he could not recover;
he realized the fact as well as any
one, for he was conscious almost to
the last and pressed the hands of
dear| ones an affectionate farewell.
His funeral took place from the resi-
dence of his son-iu-law, Mr. E. H.
Smith, jr., No, Ills East Clay street,
Richmond, where he died, last Mon
day afternoon at $3.50 o'clock.

Closing Incidents Of the Trial at Way

With Hearty APP
pr0yal.
Erenine Standard.

WAYNEsBURG, PA, Jan. 2S.-NeveT
was such interest manifested in a
criminal case as that which followed
the trial of Zach Taylor. When the
time arrived ON Saturday morning
for the counsel to make their adj
dresses to the jury, there was not
standing room left III the court house.
w. S. Anderson, the Youngstown
lawyer who aided in the prosecution,
said he never saw the like of it.
Women crowded in and occupied
their own chairs brought from home.
They were wedged in so closely
about Mr.. Anderson that he had
scarcely room to stand while
he made his powerful speech of p
hours.
Mr.. Sayers spoke about 3 hours,
and after Judge Inghram's charge
the jury retired at 7 p. m. 1t is
learned that on retiring to their
room they proceeded, without a word,
to ballot. Each wrote his verdict
on his ticket and dropped it into the
hat, and when taken out all read
guilty of murder in the first de-
gree"
This was all done inside of six
minutes from the time they went
out, though they did not come in UNI
til 9:10.
When the court house bell rang at
that hour people rushed into the
street and started on run for the
court house. The room was soon
damned, and Taylor was brought in
by the sheriff, looking very pale.
The foreman announced the verdict
and the prisoner controlled himself
well. The jury was then polled, and
as each man arose and answered
Guilty of murder in the first de-
gree" Taylor looked him square in
the face.
Judge Inghram had giving orders
that there be no demonstrations,
otherwise the verdict would have
been greeted with great shout of
applause,
The Masontown witnesses who
came to swear an alibi for Taylor
completely collapsed under Attorney
Anderson's whitening cross-fire. Ben
Clair offered to go ON the stand and
repeat his confession, OH condition
that he be shielded, but Anderson re-
piled that they had enough evidence
without him, and he will now take
his turn with the rest of the five
who are yet to be tried, at April
court.
Clark and Jim Neff, who are out
on bail, will probably be surrendered
by their bondsmen,
