The Hardwick Gazette comes out
for Carroll S. Page for next govern
or of Vermont. Some are SO unkind
as to say that it was for this very
purpose that John E. was raised
up" so to speak; while others see in
this a reason for his late attempt to
conceal his political prejudices. Both
these parties have cut their eye teeth.

THE Fox AT THE CAP Rock. -
From the time Of the first settlement
of the country the cliff known as Cap
Rock, pear Petersburg, w. Va. has
bore the gigantic representation OF
a common fox. The picture is upon
the sheer and inaccessible face of the
rock, some thirty feet from the top
and nearly 100 feet from the bottom,
and being colored dingy yellow, in
sharp contrast to the brown stone, has
been visible for a long distance. The
other day Glenn McGill, of Ohio, was
visiting Cell Beans, near Moorefield,
went out to view the fox, accompani-
ed Mr.. Beans. After an inspection
from the bottom of the cliff the men
assembled to the top, and making a
rope fast to a tree McGill lowered
himself down to the fox. Hedescribes
it as being about twelve feet long, and
pinned or plastered on the cliff with
substance resembling earthenware
glaze, which is as hard as the rock it
self. The surface of the rock is quite
rough, asthough the stuff was roughly
smeared on with the hands before It
hardened. There was "a high wind
blowing at the time McGill made his
venture and he ran considerable risk.
He took along mallet and chisel,
intending to cut his name on the fox,
but he was swung around at such an
alarming rate by the gale that he
found it impossible TO crafty his am
bition in that direction Cumberland

RANDALL, THE EVANGELIST
The Wheeling InteHigeneer thus
speaks of one whose exploits are we'll
known ia this city,
E. Randall, the Evangelist" is in
Wheeling after protracted absence.
He is clad in the regulation uniform
OF a Washington City policeman. and
was piped off by the boys last night
as a new cop. He says he wants to
establisha branch of his Central I'm
ion Mission here, and will preach out
doors till he can get a room. He is
anxious not to be confused with Sal
walton Army work an anxiety
doubtless shared by the army.
Randall is the man who some years
ago went overthe State painting texts
on rocks and walls. He decorated all
sorts of waste places with the text,
"What shall do to besaved ?'
IA patent medicine man came along
later and painted just below this,
wherever.Le could fad III nUse Piso's
cure for consumption"
The quaint combination got into
the papers, and Randall, seeing it,
went back over his route with his
paint pot, and added below the text /:
"And prepare to meet thy God!"
He has quit decorating rocks, and
now decorates his person with a gaudy
uniform. Haiaa ls3 $40 2

IAN ingenious machine was exhibit
ed to Postmaster General Dickinson
shortly before he retired from office,
and if it should strike his successor as
favorably as it did him may be in gen
eral use before long, remarked an Off
cial of the Baltimore postofice. 1T is
an adaptation of the put-a-nickel-in
the-slot machine to the sale of postage
stamps. A sheet of stamps is cut into
slips the width of two stamps, and
these slips are wound around a cylin-
der inside the machine A nickel is
placed in the slot, which drops down,
starts an electric current, which causes
the stamp cylinder to revolve, the slip
of stamps glides along and passes un-
der a row of needles, which drops
down and cuts off two stamps.
1.-THE owner of the nickel waits a few
seconds after his money disappears
and then shoves down a metallic but
ton, and two stamps make their appear
anceat an aperture in the lower part
Of the machine. 1t is proposed by the
inventors to place these machines in
stores and prominent places about a
city. If the department approves the
plan they will adopt the machine so
that two pennies or ten cent piece
can be used with the result that
one two cent stamp or five stamps can
be obtained. In case spurious coin
is used q magnet in the interior detects
the fraud and throws it to one side. y

Rev. w. M. Strayer has been elected
president of the M. E. Church, South,
Conference. The following sketch of his
life from the Sun will be read with in
terest by his many friends and acquain-
tances in this county:
The Rev. w. NJ. Strayer. the new
Neglected president, has been for the
past four years the pastor of Starr
Church on Poppleton street, and has
done good work there. He was born
May %, 1896. in Berkeley county,
Va, now West Virginia, and was
converted when seventeen years of
age. He united with the Methodist
Protestant Church and joined the con
ference when twenty years old.
Since that time he has been engaged
in the itiherant work, serving many
important charges, mainly on the
Eastern Shore of Maryland, where he
Is well known and highly esteemed.
He is positive man, but one of a
kind heart and tender sympathies.
| He Is very well read, and is consider
ed one of the ablest men in the con-
ference. His preaching is straight
and to the point. The Rev. Mr.. Stray
er was delegate to the last General
Conference OF his church held last
! year at Adrian, Mich.

1t has been fairly tested that this
weight of wool can furnish III fine
yarn 81, 900 yards, lacking bat eighty
yards to complete foity-eight miles:
This at the time-more than 100 years
ago-was regarded as a triumph of
skill, and it was said by score
of mistresses in the art of spin
ming that the worthy dame of East
Dereham, in Norfolk, could not be
beat. This was considered so great a
curiosity that the Royal society of
England did not hesitate to make hon
orable record of it. ..l
Since then, however, another lady
"has spun a pound OF combed wool
into o thread of los, 1000 yards; and
moro than this was her success of pro-
ducing q thread 2o3,0 yards long
from the same weight of cotton. Her
ball unroHed would measure lis miles.
Ii this ball OF cotton thread had been
woven it would have made twenty
