Obituary Of Mrs. Bette Moore Wyatt.


Thirty i've years ago child of twelve years
was admitted to the Lords table. AS an in
FAINT she had been dedicated by her parents
TO the Lord, who speedily fulfilled His cove
nant promise, and so at this tender age she
confessed Christ before men and became
full member of His Church.
During the years that have passed since
then her character naturally pure, her dispo-
stion naturally bright, her temper naturally
sweet, have all been perfected by the grace OF
God. And so now, when she has scarcely
passed middle age, this saint by her constant
walk with God has been fully prepared for her
translation And she is not, for God has
taken her.
For nineteen years she was q member OF
the Presbyterian Church at Kearneysville, w.
Va, and only few months before her death
transferred her membership to the Prssbyte-
rian Church in Charlestown, w. Va, to which
place her husband had removed his residence.
Though part OF the time she lived four miles
from the church and though often her health
was not good, she was nevertheless even then
regular in attending on the services. She
dearly loved the church; her interest and ef-
forts we're always enlisted in It's behalf; and
in every way she did what she could for her
Master.
She was ever consistent in her Christian
life, faithful in her religious duties, careful 10
maintsi good works AS faithful wife, duti-
full daughter, kind mother, loving sister
warm friend, useful church member, she was
In her life an example and inspiration to all
who knew her.
At the time OF her death n house was build
ing in which she hoped to find permanent
home, but God decided otherwise. ain my
Fathers house are many mansions" The
handmaiden OF the Lord has been given a
heavenly home. precious in the sight ofthe
Lord is the death OF His saints" q.

HERE'S just about the way the two
parties stand on the tariff question:
In the Senate on Tuesday Mr.. Vest
made motion to take from the free
list ottar of roses, that luxury Of the
rich, and put in it's place salt, the ne
cessity Of the poor. The Republicans,
of course, opposed it, therefore ottar
OF roses will come in free while salt
will be taxed 40 per cent.

IN the consideration Of the Senate
tariff bill last week a vote was taken
on proposition to put coal on the
free list. Senator Faulkner voted
against it, and in the discussion pre-
ceding the vote made speech earn
estly approving of the duty of rs cents
a ton. We don't think Senator Faux
ner, would have very greatly displeased
his constituents, however, had he
voted to remove the tax-always ex-
cepting the mine owners, of course.
We believe it would be just as benefi-
cial to the people at large to knock
OF fifty cents ton now as it was to
reduce it the same amount a few
Years ago.
