A Trick That Failed.

The story told is about a man who found
himself sitting behind two women who
wore extraordinarily large Gainsborough
hats The man lodged first one way and
then another, vSinly endeavoring to get a
peek at what was occurring on the stage,
but with little success Finally brilliant
idea struck him, and putting on his own
high hat he awaited developments. He
was not detained long, for dozen voices
called out: Take that hat off" The la
dies, thinking the shouts were given for
them, Immediately took their hats off, and
the man enjoyed the play without further
interruption.
Well, | found myself in the same pre-
dicamcnt one evening, so l thought would
follow the example of the man in the story.
It took heap of nerve, can assure you,
but ut last mustered ny courage, and put
ON my tile. Not word did hear from be-
hind me, but suddenly an old, white haired
man reached over and gave my hat the
most tremendous whack with his cane.
That settled it. | took the hat off and
laughed for fifteen minutes at the reversal
of the joke.-Interview in New York Trib-
uue.

in August, 1887. Until the clock run down

II is pleasant to turn back the leaves
of history for two centuries or more and
read that several preachers who tried
their prentice hand in America after
ward became famous in England, and 1t
should not be forgotten that John Wes-

Each day is an integral part of eternity

DEATH oELR. SMITH.
A Prominent Business Man of Hancock
County-well known Here.


The people throughout the Pan-Han-
die counties Of Hancock, Brooke and
Ohio will be shocked by the announce
ment Of the death Of Mr.. Lewis K.
Smith, of New Cumberland, whose de-
mise occurred at Q o'clock yesterday
morning. Mr.. Smith had been in poor
health for more than a year past, hav-
ing been confined to his room upon sew
eral occasions, but always rallied suffi-
GENTLY 10 resume active control OF his
business interests, aud was in Wheeling
about two weeks ago, the guest
of his daughter, Mrs. W. c. Young, on
the Island. About week or ten days
ago, however, he had recurrence of
his illness, and few days ago Mr.. and
Mrs. Young were summoned TO his bed
side as were others of his children.
Yesterday the news of his death came
as shock to his many friends and ac-
quaintances here. In his death Han
cock county loses one OF her foremost
citizens-a man full of business push
and energy, fully imbued with the spirit
OF the age, and genial, cheerful and
companionable to an unusual degree.
He will be sorely missed in his native
town.
Lewis R. Smith was born April 30,
1882. He was born in Cincinnati, where
his father, Thomas Smith, removed
from Pennsylvania in 1920, dying there
in 1899. The subject of this sketch re-
moved to New mberland in 1874, and
went to work in brickyard. This
business he followed until 1862, for sew
eral years of that time being one OF the
owners of large yard. He then en-
barked in merchandising, and retained
an interest in the brick business and
held large interests in the firms OF Por-
ter, Anderson & Co., Smith & Porter,
and Porter, Miner e. Co. He also became
an extensive holder of real estate,
utilizing fine farm of 200 acres. When
the oil excitement invaded Brooke Mr..
Smith put down a inductive well, and
became interested in others. He was
postmaster at New Cumberland under
the administration OF President Cleve-
land, and was Justice of the Peace for
nearly twenty years. In 1858 he mar
ried Sarah j., daughter Of II. w. Nor
row. His wife and five children sur
vive him. Deceased was consistent
member OF the M. e. Church and was
held in the highest esteem wherever
known. His loss will be keenly felt.

Railroad Notes

Capt. James Cleary has resigned his
position on the Ravenswood & Spencer
road to become foreman in stone quarry
operated near Bridgeport, Conn.
Work is TO be pushed rapidly on the
tracklaying on the new railroad TO eau
lev river. +. II. Blodgett & Co., who
have the contract for laying the track,
have advertised for 800 hands.
The Ensign car works, at Hunting
ton. covers 4O1i acres Of ground, and
employs 1920 men, who receive $4,000
in wages every month. The property
of the Company is worth 81, 600, 900.
Upon measuring the distance from
the Norfolk & Western depot to the
post office, at Wayne c. H., 1t was
found to be 81 7-10th rods. II it had
been only so rods the railroad company
would have been required to deliver the
mail. As it is, the government will
have to do it.
The Monongahela River Railroad pro-
poses to have track of its own from
Fairmont to CASTOR Junction as soon as
il is possible to build it. The prelim-
inaries have been made and the work OF
grading will be commenced the moment
the weather settles, the intention being
to complete it by the first OF May.
Sub-contracts under Thompson Bros.
have been let Oh the line of the Norfolk
& Western, in Logan, as follows: A. w.
Watt & Co., for construction OF five
miles; Widen & johnson TO build three
miles: Waugh & Bailey for construc-
tion OF three miles; w. B. Merritt for
four miles and Carson Bros. TO con-
struct three miles.
Donald Mcdonald, train master Of
New River District, has been trans
ferred from this place 10 Kanawhs Dis
trict, with headquarters at Huntington,
vice w. 5. King, resigned. We under
stand that Mr.. Mcdonald will also have
charge of part of the n, n. & M. v.
system. which has lately come into the
possession of the c. IL o. Railway. Mr..
Mcdonald has been succeeded here by
I Rush Carey, the present yard master
at Sewell.-HiltOn Independent.
Track laying on the Gauley extension
was completed TO Elk river last week,
and the bridge builders are preparing
IN commence the construction OF the
bridge across the river. As Blodgett &
Co can do nothing further in the way
of laying track until the bridge Is COM
Melted. they have moved their entire
force of hands to the Newton extension
above Buckhannon. 1t is thought the
bridge will be completed by the first OF
Nav. and then track-laying will be re-
sumed with an increased force OF hands.

Planquette's new opera. captain
Therese," which will be given at the
Opera House tomorrow night, is COM

PRACTICAL RELIGION.
Presiding Elder Amick Discourses mt the
Zane street Church.


Last evening there was good-sized
congregation at the Zane Street Meth
odist Church. The regular pastor,
Rev. A. Moore, did not officiate except
as one OF the members of the choir,
Presiding Elder Amick conducting the
services. He commenced by saying
that too many people dwell upon the
theory. but don't know very much
about the practical side of religion.
Some people seem to regard the church
as kind OF hospital, where you are
taken, given certain spiritual doses
and you are all well. That Is not our
idea, nor is it the Masters idea. Our
work should be strong, earnest and true.
What is there in this world that
is of much value that don't
require effort. The Christian life is
practicable life, and one who gains
eminence along this line gains it by the
cost of great effort. Some look with
favor upon the church of wealth, the
church OF sociables, the church that Is
continually giving some kind OF an en-
tertainment; all this we can get any
where, and tell you that the church OF
to-day that tells in Christian work is
the church that saves souls. We are
co-laborers together with God. God
Himself labors, and IN fact there is no
one mure active and energetic. Some
people seem TO 'frown upon labor as
mental and degrading, but tell you
the ideal of the eternal God and the life
God is labor.
The Infinite God cannot save us I'M
less we help so save ourselves. A gen.
tleman once asked the great statesman,
Daniel Webster, what had ever been his
greatest thought, aud he replied, my
accountability to God 1t is indeed a
great thought.
There is great deal OF effort made in
saving sinners, but not enough effort
made in keeping them saved. Again,
mems souls are saved and kept saved
through others working for the bodies
of the men, like the charitable acts Of
clothing and feeding. But, alas, how
few real workers there are! A large per-
centage of men are earnest workers,
but a still larger percentage are indus
triously doing nothing. Why, / believe
IT, the entire s,0O0,O 900 Methodists on
earth were at work with heart and soul
they could soon win the world.
Presiding Elder Amick talks with
great deal of force and earnestuess,
and carried conviction to many heart
last night as was evidenced in the COM
munion services that followed.
