Hon. w. G. Bennitt For Governor.

To the Editor Of the Register.
1t has been the writer's privilege 10
take trip through Central West Vir-
ginia, and also through the western
part of the state. and we find in our
travels that the Democratic party is In
better shape than ever before. we
have heard different suggestions in re-
gard to the next Democratic nominee
for Governor, and judging from the
tenor of conversation Of some OF the
most prominent men Of Central West
Virginia; we can very solicitously say
that Judge w. G. Bennett, Of Weston,
w. Va, is the peoples choice to make
the gubernatorial race. Judge Bennett
would fill the gubernatorial chair with
high distinction. He is man that pos
sesses high intellectual and moral at
tainments, and is in every respect gen.
tleman of the strictest integrity. II the
Democracy of West Virginia deems 1t
expedient TO nominate Judge Bennett,
he will make the race with due respect
to himself and with soliciting candor to
his friends. T. M. Darrah, Of Wheel
ing, is also very favorably spoken OF
throughout the State for Auditor.

the TWO COMETS.
One TO occult Some Small Stars
early In September.

A very beautiful astronomical phenomenon
will occur on the evenings of September 4th
and 9TH. VOLTS comet, which Is now
family visible in the constellation Aries
will pass over or occult some Of the smaller
stars of the Pleiades. AT nearest the comet
will only be a few minutes north of Alcyone
the brightest star Of the group. Wolff's
comet is one Of the list of comets of very
short period. Its period being somewhat
less than seven years, the time of last peri
helion passage was about the LIST of October.
1884. The time Of the present perihelion
passage will be on the 9TH of September.
VOLTS comet is one of those comets which
never approaches very near to the sun, and
Is always outside of the orbit Of Mars, even
when nearest Its present distance from the
sun is in round numbers about one hundred
and forty-seven millions of miles, and from
the earth about one hundred and four mil
lions of miles. ANY one having access to
telescopes will have no trouble whatever In
identifying the comet on the two nights Of
its near approach to the Pleiades. The
Pleiades now cross the meridian between
5.3O:and in the morning, SO that by mid
night they are we'll situated Tor Observation.
There is another comet which is now well
situated for observations. 1t is Encke's ia
nous short period comet. with period Of
only three and ue-third years-the shortest
period of any known comet of the present
day. Encke's comet is now visible in the
northeast and is situated about ten degrees
south of the bright star Capella. the leading
brilliant in the constellation Aurlga. Encke's
comet is one of those comets rarely visible to
the naked eye. although on some occasions IL
has just been detected (as in October and
November. 1881 as faint light shining
as star of the fifth magnitude. In the
telescope the comet presents a fairly we'll
defined nucleus with hazy envelope, often
so thin that the faintest star can easily be
seen through it.

This ) ew Needs Regenera,Ine.

Last night telegraph messenger COM
planned at the station that he bought a
watch at Jew store on Fore street. near
Exchange, paying dollar and half for 1t.
the Jew telling him 1t was a good watch.
He couldn't make the watch 90 and took it
to Senter's and several other jewellers. all Of
whom told him the same story. namely, that
it would take 81 to fix 1t so that it would
run and then 1t wouldn't be worth anything
that 1t was worn out. Deputy Marshal
Sterling told the boy to take 1t back to the
Jew and to tell him to return the money.
The Jew, on the contrary, kicked the boy in
the side. This action was seen by another
boy. Then the messenger returned to the
deputy and informed him of what had hap
pened. Sterling sent Officer Norton down
and told him to bring back the money or the
Jew. The Jew preferred to send the money.
Now the Jew ought to be prosecuted for
trying to cheat the boy.
