square, very stiff, and dead white. Your

a great deal to you, and all because you
did not think II worth while to notice the

Last night fat man, wearing q low

No one saw the incident. The obese

The complete novel In Lippincotfs
Magazine for November is entitled
"A Belated Revenge" 1t is pow
erful story, full of stirring adven-
lures, the scene of which is laid in
Virginia in precautionary times.
The late DIR. Robert Montgomery
Bird, known to fame as the author
of "The Gladiator" mick Of the
Woods" and other we'll known tales
and dramas, was engaged upon this
novel at the time of his death. The
manuscript fell into the hands of his
son, Frederic M. Bird, who has re-
vived and completed the story in a
manner which shows that he has in
herited his famous fathers literary
skill. Dr. Birds wide and ripe
knowledge of colonial manners and
customs has borne fruit in "A Be-
lated Revenge" and the outcome is
story which is not only highly en-
tertaining in itself, but also gives "a
graphic picture of the times closely
preceding the Revolutionary War,
and brings that epoch before us in u
way which no history can.

served, and after 81 informal recep-
ton 70 the leading capitalists of the
party. the return journey was taken
up. 1t was accomplished without
incident, and just At Eightfsll the
passengers on the first train into the
Great West Fork valley alighted and
marched to their homes with feelings
of untold pride and satisfaction.
ANOTHER COKE WORKS.
1t was the original intention of
the inspecting party to extend its
trip to point four miles above
Shinnston where Simpsons Greek
empties into the West Fork. Here
they have located another coke plant.
They have about 1000 acres of fine
coal land in the vicinity and will
build five hundred ovens to consume
the product, which they propose to
begin mining Immediately.
The line of the railroad is graded
almost to the limits of Clarksburg,
and work is being puzzled at a rapid
rate. In few days the track-layers
will begin work above Shinnston,
and the road will be extended into
Clarksburg, as fast as the rails can
be put down. At Clarksburg the
new road will connect with the
Clarksburg and Weston road which
will be broadened, and pushed on to
Braxton C. II. When this work is
done, the road will have cut through
the very heart Of the State and pierre
ed its richest territory. The ulti-
mate terminus of such q line must
be Charleston, and when completed,
no enterprise ever undertaken will
have done more for the development
and industrial growth of West Vir-
ginia.

West Virginia is truly State Of
wonderful and varied resources. We
have coal, natural gas, iron, timber
in abundance, and now the people
of the central part of the State are
going wild over the discovery Of
splendid oil wells At Warrington,
and several other places widely
separated, test wells have been sunk
under the direction of Prof |. c.
White, which have met with success
and indicate oil fields as rich and as
vast as those of Pennsylvania were
in their best days. The effect has
already been magical: real estate
doubled in value in forty-eight
hours; capitalists focking in; and
altogether giving promise of another
oil craze. If future developments
are up to the present promises,
West Virginia, is truly the most
wonderful section of the world

THE MINNESOTA DROUGHT.
Farmers Compelled to Haul Water Over
Six Miles.

CHICAGO, October ga dispatch
from Waterville, Mimi, says: 1t is
almost impossible to state the sever
ity of the drought in this region,
and the evil effects If it should freeze
without rain. All the creeks and
rivers are dry and have been for
some time, and the lakes were never
SO low in the history of the country.
Only the best of the wells furnish
any water, and many think that it
is unfit for use. Certain it is that
there is much sickness, but whether
this is the cause or not it is impos-
sible to say. Farmers southeast of
here, in Blooming Grove, have been
hauling water for some time for do
nestle use and for watering stock
from a distance of over six miles.
