- The method pursued Of counting
pencils in the factories where they are
made is by means Of board containing
a number of grooves. A workman takes
a handful of pencils and rolls them along
the board, filling the grooves. AS the
number in each board is known, no diff
ficulty is met with in counting.

patients rushing through the streets
Screaming and yelling, and shuddering
at the sight of certain objects which pro-
woke the paroxySmS. Madness gives
way to high fever and severe prostration,
not infrequently ending in death. In
sanity sometimes accompanies the dis
ease in this country, but not in the early
stage. A remarkable feature Of this eX-
traordinary disease is the fact that it is
almost universal in its character, and af-
fects all classes, rich and poor, alike,
while most ofthe dreaded epidemics, like
cholera. yellow fever, smallpox, ETC., are
generally confined to limited sections of
even one country. The grip breaks out
everywhere, is no respecter ofpersons,
no sanitary precaution can ward it off,
and it keeps coming.
MIR. H. w. Knight, leading Metho-
dist layman of Brooklyn, startled his
church Conference the other day by some
of his progressive ideas. He suggested
that pool and billiard tables, bowling
alleys, etc., be put into the easements Of
the churches, to induce young men to
frequent the churches and thus come
under Christian influence. In the course Of
his argument to the Conference, Mr..
Knight said: "Now, brethren, want
to say that owe allegiance first to God,
second to my family, and third to the
Methodist Church, which I believe was
ordained to work among the poor and
down-trodden, and | stand here this

cuss the political situation with n

and we found that Mr.. Whelan s
chances were very good. In fact it
is generally agreed that he would
make first class Sheriff. lie is
energetic, full Of business and a
great hustler and if nominated will
make a strong fight. Hon. Andrew
Whelan and Ex-Sheriff Horror are
also II the race. If both the WHEEL

too, so that the Democracy Of Lewis

Clarksburg now has three daily
papers and there is talk of more.
The latest is the Daily Enquirer
and the Sunday addition is i'm
mense. MIR. II. Williams, the cele-
brated Clarksburg correspondent to
the city papers, is the editor.
There is the NewS for the Enquirer
and the Sun for both, so that alto
gether the people of that borough
do not want for record of passing
events. We suggest that all these
beacon lights of civilization quit
fighting each other long enough to
tackle the Baltimore & Ohio rail-
road for new passenger depot, as
the old one would be disgrace as
mule stable on a tram road. If
the papers Of the town will fight for
1t, they can get new depot.
