Tn. Custom of Collecting Peter Pence"

The Custom of Collecting Peter Pence"
The custom of collecting Peter pence"
or Rome SCOT" as it is sometimes
called, is of ancient origin. II the GUS
tom is fairly understood by the outside
world, it consists Of setting aside one
day out of each year for taking up coli
lection of money mot necessarily PEN
nies) to be sent to the pope at Rome, who
is supposed to use it in defraying the
expense Of the holy see. Chambers
Book of Days" and Brands Popular
Antiquities" neither mention the GUS
tom, but have succeeded in tracing it
back to the twelfth century for GER
tainty. One authority even goes 80 far
as to ascribe its origin to Ina, king of the
west Saxons, who went to Rome in the
year 721 and founded hospital for Eng
lish pilgrims to tho sacred city, the ex-
penses to be betrayed by leach maybe
adult giving one Small copper coyne
each yeare"
This mighty collection of pennies was
forwarded direct to the pope. Others
claim that the honor Of originating the
Peter pence scheme is due to Ethelwulf
At a very early date (the most laborious
research fails to locate these things as
far as the year, month and day are con-
cerned) the copper penny clause was
changed until the tribute was understood
to consist of "silver penny" to be con-
tributed by every family who possessed
land or cattle of a yearly value of 30
pence. This probably means upon which
yearly tax of 80 pence was levied

The monument is TO he granite mon

high, making an extreme elevation of 80
feet. Upon the rising ground where the
grave is situated this will be very con-
spicuous object. and it cannot any too

stone which is all that remains of the
marble monument begun half century
ago, which is today rather n monument
Of blasted hope and fruitless endeavor
than the memorial it was intended to be.
The ladies of the association have en-
tire faith in the women Of the country
and believe that they will contribute
what remains to be raised of the funds
necessary to carry out the designs of the
organization. These objects include, be-
sides the erection of the monolith, the
Identifying of the grounds about it and
the provision of fund for its perma-
nent maintenance Renewed interest
has been shown in the project since the
model has been placed ON exhibition, and
the sale of photographs and souvenirs at
the fair has augmented the funds.

ever. that the association principally re-
lies not only for the collection of money.

An Exciting Runaway.

Yesterday afternoon there was an ex-
citing runaway in North Wheeling. w.
S. Smith, OF House & Hermann's, was
driving a team down Main street. In
the buggy were Mrs. Smith and Mrs
Hobbs. The ponies were somewhat
wild, and near Sixth street trace be-
came loose and the team began wild
chase down street. They had not gone
far when the buggy pole dropped
10 the street. The horses were now
going at a furious rate, the buggy
jumping 10 and out Of the street car
tracks. People were on the street
screaming, and several persons made
brave attempts TO stop the team. Sew
eral wagons were passed with the mar
roweSt of margins. A little below
Seventh street the buggy crashed
agains telegraph pole, but little dam
age was done. Still the two women,
terribly frightened, chung to the buggy.
At the corner of Ninth and Main streets
the team ran into q treebox, smashing
IL. This stopped the horses. The wo-
men were taken from the buggy. They
had been too much terrified to jump
from the vehicle. The buggy tongue
was smashed and there were other
breaks. One of the horses got its foot
very badly cut Beyond this, that was
all the damage that resulted.

LAST NIGHT.
A Large Audience Prssent-Ths Contestants
Details OF an Unique COmpe-
tion.

The gymnastic exhibition, at the Y.
NJ. C. A. last night, was complete sue
cess. The entire exercises were inter-
esting 10 the large crowd Of young men
present, and quite large number OF Ia
dies were in attendance.
Last September there were three
prizes offered in the gymnasium depart
ment OF the Y. NJ. c. A. They were
elegant gold medals, bearing the name
OF the Wheeling association and the
reason for which the souvenir was
given. They were to be awarded for:
all round development, for form or
manner OF execution OF class drills, and
for the best attendance. A large class OF
young men at once entered the con-
test, and worked with will. Last
night was the time set for awarding the
medals. When the contest began, the
physical status Of each young man was
taken, and record preserved. Those
in the class for all-round development
were measured again last night, and re-
suits compared. The result was most
marked, showing great gains in physi-
cal proportions. DR.. j. f. Belleville
conducted the physical examination,
and G. H. Marshall was physical d.
rector.
The judges were DR.. j. L. Dickey,
Alfred PAUL and J. @. Riheldaffer. d.
A. Taylor and Z. w. Zinn were clerks.
The class OF young men, contestants,
made a pretty sight, as, rugged out
in their jaunty gymnasium suits OF
black, they made their appearance
before the audience, their faces were
rosy, and their muscles like rubber,
showing what exercise had done for
them. The names Of the class OF Is
follow: Frank Miller, Richard Meek,
VIM. Turner, Harry C. Prosser, Harry
Grade, Chas. w. White, Newton
Smith. Robert Erskins. Burt Otto,
Howard Shaier, Walter Vardy, Chas.
Evans, VIM. Vance, Jno. Carroll, and
Thomas Prosser.
The general class exercises OF the
gynasium were executed. Physical Di-
rector Marshall conducted these drills.
The boys were beautifully trained and
executed every motion with q precision
and exactnesS that was very noticeable.
NLuEI GANlNlcNSr NAOWAhR NANHNA ANSN -
the young men, evoked frequent rounds
OF applause.
When these drills were executed,
the elegant medals were brought for
ward. IL was with a happy smile that
Frank Miller advanced TO get the medal
for all round development. Richard
Meeks next stepped from the ranks aud
received the medal for form, or execu-
ton OF drills. Harry Prosser got the
medal for regular attendance. Mr..
Miller is as fine a specimen OF physical
manhood as could be found. MIR. Meek
had close contestant in Mr.. Vardy
for the medal. for form. Harry Prosser
was the most faithful in attendance
among the boys. though the race was
quite close.

Iy Postponed.
Miss Sophia Vierheller and Mr.. Bott
were to have been married at st. AL
phonsus church yesterday morning at
nine o'clock. The approaching nup-
tials were announced on three consecu-
tive Sundays, in accordance with the
custom of the Catholic church. The
bride prepared her wedding gown, and
her relatives made all arrangements for
a reception in honor OF the event.
At the appointed hour friends OF the
bride and groom gathered in the church,
and patiently awaited the arrival of the
wedding party. The priest was ready
to perform the ceremony, and when ten
o'clock arrived. and nothing was seen
or heard OF the groom. the ceremony
was declared off, and the we'll wishers OF
Mr.. Bott and Miss Vierheeler left the
church.
Inquiry at the Office OF Clerk Hook
developed the fact that no marriage IL
cense had been issued by that official.
II was learned later that the prospec-
tive groom left the city on Wednesday
night, without any explanation for his
conduct.
