HIS MASTERPIECE.

There was once Tuscan painter named Spag-
hettl MacchcEoni.
Who gave his life unto the art he loved all
else above.
And his masterpiece he painted one bright win
ter in Mentone,
'Tw S sweet and life-iike portrait Of his
blue-eyed lady-love.
But the lips so warm and crimson, and the eyes
so soft and dewy,
And the hair so rich and glossy. and the feat
ures honey-sweet
Couldn't sell il 10 native OF C1icago or St.
Louis,
Or dealer down in Liberty or Pine or Cedar
street.
But one DAY into the workshop OF Spaghetti
Maccheroni.
As the latter made luncheon Of piece Of
apple pie.
Stepped a dapper man of business named Rod
erick Maloney.
And the portrait of lady in a ji-y caught
his eye.
And his ardent admiration for the same he
could not smother
He bought il 1T the artists price and with il
did depart.
Maccheroni knew he easily could paint himself
another
her all by heart.
Row is Maccheroni famous, for his Iady's ever
smiling,
On palace wall suspended by dainty Grim
son rope:
And she's likewise in the papers, and the maya
zines beguiling.
AS she there exto!s the virtues of Maloney's
toilette soap

The following letter was received
Mt this Office yesterday:
TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMEs-Sir:
Has The TINES n travelling agent
authorized 10y 10 TO collect funds i'm

man representing himself rs an
agent for THE TIMES was i'm this

whatever funds he could. He said
he was authorized to take but 10
cents, but if anyone insisted on
giving more he would receive it.
lie was of genteel appearance;
height, about 8 feet 10 inches;
weight, about 225 pounds and dark
compleXioned. He visited several
other towns in this section.
RowLEsBURG, w. Va. June 21, 80.
The man is swindler, akin
to those who robbed the pockets of
the dead at Johnstown, and cut off
the fingers of woman for the rings
they wore. Arrest and prosecute
him wherever he is found working
his contemplate fraud, and Of the
police object to lynching him)
The TIMES will cheerfully pay the
expenses of his conviction. A sheep
thief ought to wear q halo alongside
Of such a creature.
THE TINES has no travelling
agents authorized to collect mon
ey in its name for the flood sufferers
or for any other purpose. It's name
was used TO assist in this swindle
poroblbly because its check for
$500, drawn upon the night Of the
disaster, was generally known to
have been the first subscription to
the now magnificent fund for the
relief Of these stricken people. Ev-
cry dollar, every 10 cent piece, of
the $4,000 and more which has
been given through this Office to the
Johnstown sufferers has been given
without solicitation. 1t is free

w. VA. AND PENN. II. r.

The prospect for building the
West Virginia and Pennsylvania
railroad, which will run from
Rowlesburg through Grant and
Pleasant districts ON through to
Fairchance or Uniontown, Penn.
are very ilottoring indeed. The
men who arc at the head of this
enterprise arc going about i'm bu-
sinoss like way, and inspire conf
doncc that the road will be built i'm
the near future. The road will run
through rich territory and will do
more to develop Preston county
than any enterprise since the build
ing of the b. & o. 1t will give
Preston an excellent outlet to
Pittsburgh, something she is badly
in need of.
Mr.. George w. l.. Marsden, who
is the prime mover in this enter
prise, is deserving of the thanks of
every Prestonian, and if he should
succeed in his great undertaking,
nothing that he could ask for at the
hands of Preston would be too good
for him. AS the J0uraaI truthfully
says, owe shall bless Mr.. Marsden
for it if we get it, and we shall
bless him for his effort If we don't
get it." The ARGUS wishes the
gentlemen all manner of success and
hopes to be able TO chronicle the
early completion of the road.

On To Victory.

The function Cowhidc Boots arc
still seeking more base ball clubs TO
conquer. They "done up" the
Kingwood club short time since
which increasd their appetite for
more pudding" Last Saturday
they went to Rowlosburg and made
an afternoon meal off tie River
City boys. The Rowlesburp game
was holly contested from beginning
to end. Both clubs put up stiff
game, but the Cowhide battery was
too much for the Rowlesburg slug
gers. Cool and Rugglcs are "holy
terrors" when they let themselves
loose. They occupied the points
for the Cowhides while Ayersman
and Wheeler did like service for the
Rowlesburgers. A return game
will be played at TunneltOn shortly.
If we can only persuade Billy Prince
and Ham Gray to stifien the back
bone Of the Grafton "CFampions"
we will take the Cowhide Boots no
to Grafton and mop the earth up
with them. What do you say BOYS?
