Industrial army. Judge Sanborn also

that similar armies are located at eev-
eral towns on the line of the Northern

THE EUROPEAN SITUATION.
The Air Ia Full of War Talk, but In Eng
land There Is "A Fear of Weakness.

The Air Ia Full of War Talk, bat In Eng
land There Is IA Fear of Weakness.
While it is generally admitted that
1893 has been year of retrogression in
Great Britain, both in material pros
perity and national prestige, the year
1894 will be welcomed with strong hope
and confidence. Even those who fear
and expect war have this feeling in a
large measure. Even war would re-
move the curse of idleness, which, an
influential deputation told the prime
minister this week, is the greatest bur
den upon the nation.
1t is one of the significant signs OF
the hour that the present generation,
which knows nothing of war, has no
conception of its horrors. 1t is not 60
ing too far to say that if it were not for
the prevailing fear of the inadequacy
of the British armament considerable
portion of the English people would at
heart welcome the war which, nearly
all agree, is threatened by the present
conditions. The reason for this SAN
culinary sentiment is the fact that the
English people are poor, poorer than
ever before IN these latter days.
In spite of this still growing feeling
of threatened trouble, no fact of any de-
scription pointing to an international
quarrel has come to light recently. All
bellicose talk is still in the air only,
and while the popular dread is perhaps
little more deep and widespread than
in similar crises in recent years it will
be we'll to remember that the expected
seldom happens in such cases. 1t is re-
markable how undisguIsed some war
alarms have become. Even Mr.. Aston S
able journal has caught the fever. 1t
is only fair TO credit the Pail Mall Ga
zette with sincerity when 1t said in a
warning leader yesterday:
What we have to understand as a
nation is that for the present we stand
almost alone in Europe, and that the
future is black with uncertain men
aces.
The most significant recent utterance,
in the opinion of the London press, is
that of the pope when he said to the
cardinals and prelates offering Christ
mas greetings, IF peace and charity
have disappeared, we must not despair y
The tendency is, however, to give
these words both a broader and more
specific meaning than his holiness prob
ably intended to convey.-New York

CeXlOn Ten.

1t appears that some of the Ceylon
tea planters are making an organized
attempt to obtain a sale for their tea.
seed in the London market. A parcel
of seven bags of that article was offered
at the drug sales recently, but no one
seemed to know what to do with it. and
although the broker declared his belief
that the drug was "a favorite medi-
cine in China" the audience remained
unmoved Nevertheless the teaseed
might have been worth purchasing for
the sake of the bland oil which it con-
tains, to the extent of about 30 per cent
by weight, and which resembles olive
oil in color and somewhat in taste. The
seeds are about the size of a cherry
stone, subglobular in shape and of a
deep brown color. The oil would be
useful for burning OF lubrIcating. -

Branding Criminals In China.

Finding that long terms of imprison-
ment and hogging do not check robbery
and piracy and systematic practice of
imposition on strangers in the nature of
thievery in the Soochow district, the
authorities have resolved to try brand
ing. For the first offense the thief is
to be branded on the right cheek, and
for the second on the left cheek. The
brand is to be the Chinese sign for the
word thief. As the Chinese bave a su-
perstitious horror of all facial disfgure-
ment, the belief is entertained that the
new punishment will check the criminal
element -Sacramento Record Union.

LAW AGAINST SENTIMENT.
Lord HerscheII's Bill Eliminating Ro-
nance From Breach of Promise Suits.

Lord Herscheil's Bill Eliminating Ro-
nance From Breach of Promise Suits.
The lord chancellor. | hear, is cred
tied with the intention of preparing a
bill to do away with sentimental breach
of promise actions and to limit the
right of invoking the law in such mat
tiers to cases where it can be proved that
actual pecuniary loss has been incurred
by reason of the unfultilled promise.
If Lord HerscheIl's bill ever becomes
an act, every shred of romance will of
course be eliminated from such actions
as come before the courts after it has
passed, and breach of promise will lose
the fascination which it has so long ex-
ercised upon the public mind.
On the other hand, juries will be
spared the delicate and invldious task
of estimating the value of laCerated
heart in current coin of the realm, and
counsel will be relieved of the necessity
of talking a great deal of sentimental
nonsense that must be terribly trying
to their sense of humOr. -Lady's Pic

What S15 Did.

Last Wednesday night was Hal.
low'een. That's the night when a
pretty celebration of days agoue is
reversed into a time OF general de
structiveness by the reckless and
needless. Usually, that is. In Nor
gantown it was a grand excep.
ton to the general rule, due by the
nipping in the bud such lawlessness
as was contemplated.
That night there were ten extra
police officers here on duty They
cost the town the small sum of $I5
for the nights service. The amount
of damage done to property that
night was not a nickel. There was
none at all The officers were vigi-
liant. There was no chance for the
numerous providers around to get in
their work.
Usually the dana done here or
hallow cen nights runs up in the hun
dreds of dollars, which the agrieved
citizen has to pay. He pays taxes
for police protection, but as a rule
don't get it. With an extra SIS
worth of police protection this year
it is safe to say that several times
that amount was saved. II is
healthy sign to show holerevers thai
they don't own any more of the town
then than at other times.

The Pittsburg Times Tour of the Holy
Land.

Some months ago the Pittsburg
Times arranged to send five minis
tiers who should receive the greatest
number of votes among its readers
on trip to the Holy Land. The
itinerary has been extended and the
gentlemen will also visit the Bermu-
das, the Azores, Southern Spain and
the Alhambra, Algiers, Malta, Con
stantinople, Athens and Rome.
The five clergymen who are chos-
en- by the readers of The Times will /
be accompanied by F, G. Clark, of
New York, and Alfred A. Guthrie,
of Albany. Mr. Clark is ex- United
States Vice Consul at Jerusalem, a
thorough linguist, and resident of
Palestine for 20 years. With Mr..
Guthrie he accompanied the grand
Knight Templar pilgrimage to Eu-
rope in 1891. Messrs. Clark and
Guthrie have chartered the palatial
new American Line steamer, Fries
land (7,500 tons), for the voyage.
When trips are to be made inland
the Friesland will anchor in the
nearest port and await the return of
the tourists. There will be none of
the shifting of quarters and careless
service which are usual incidents of
foreign travel From the time state
rooms are assigned in New York I'M
til The Times tourists reach Rome
they will have permanent place for
their belongings, and be in every
particular as comfortable as if they
were at home. Their travelling com
panions will include representative
men and women from all over the
country. Several well known Pitts
burgers have arranged to make the
tour with Messrs. Clark and Guth-
rie. The members of the leading
Knights Templar commandery of AL
bany, N. T., will also be passengers
on the Friesland. At each stopping
point thereswill be a sufficient num-
Der of guides to enable the different
members of the party to see what
particularly interests them. There
will be all the advantages Of 'going
it alone" in the matter of sight see
ing, and experienced conductorshi p

A restaurant is conceded to have
the right to an every day and Sun
day too business.
The one question in Morgantown
{ and this is one between restaurants
themselves is whether it is in good
taste to light up and hang out their
signs on Sunday.
We think everybody who respects
the Sabbath as il ought to be, will
agree that if place must do bust
ness on Sunday, it ought to have as
little of the show and hustle of bus
mess as possible.
We believe that the good taste
and Sabbath sentiment of the town
would commend The restaurant that
takes in its sign on Sunday, even il
its doors are wide open.
Out of respect to this sentiment
one of the restaurant keepers of the
town has made a proposition to his
competitors to take down signs on
Sunday, but he says they wont con
sent
Nevertheless we think tho public
will observe this respect for Sunday
and will prefer to patronize the res
taurant where the Sunday sign is
taken in. We venture to say that
when it is known that certain res
taurant has taken down its sign out
of respect for Sunday, it will have
two customers to where the Sunday
sign draws one.

The directors of the Morgantown
creamery have decided to not oper-
ate this winter. They may open up
for business again next spring, but
this is not certain. Assurance OF
the patronage of larger number OF
farmers will have to be made before
it will go again. The reason the di-
rectors have ceaaed the operations
of the creamery is that the concern
was not supplied with sufficient
quantity of milk daily to pay to OPP
crate. The farmers seemed to not
care to go into dairying. The testi-
mony of the farmers who did bring
milk to the creamery is that it was
profitable to them. But there were
not enough of them to make it pro
fitable to the Company. For the
present, therefore, the big dashel
dashes not.

The crop bulletin for the season
past has been issued. In regard to
West Virginia crops it says:
The average yield of wheat, as es
timated for this season, is II Is 81.
The quantity in most of the larger
wheat raising counties is up to OF
above the average. In some places
on low, wet ground the crop was
damaged to some extent by rust.
The yield of ryeis good, but it is not
raised in more than half the eoun
ties of the State. Oats promised a
good yield earlier in the season, but
the severe drought cut them shorter
than was expected. The drought
has lessened the yield of buckwheat,
but the quality seems to be fair.
The late rains have caused corn to
fill out and the percentage is higher
than it was thirty days ago.

GREAT OIL STRIKE.
Lab Tenant Wen Doing 90 Barrels
an Hour.

The infusion of oil excitement
has become general among the PEG
pie Of Clay district, and those of the
surrounding country. Last week the
well being drilled on the Lab Ten
nant farm, which lies to the west of
Dunkard about a mile and half,
came in, and it is a mighty produc-
er, doing about 20 barrels an hour.
1t is the biggest well that has been
struck in all the district for years,
and has tendency to increase the
excitement. All the territory adj
jacent being leased, farm owners are
in great hope that development will
spread and increase with great ra-
pidity since this big well has come
in, following, as it does, so close up
on the big well drilled in on the
Warner farm. The Tenant well
came in Thursday. just one week
previous the Warner well came in.
The well on the Warner farm, close
to the Tenants doing aboutl0 bar
rels an hour now. Both wells were
drilled in by the South Penn com
pany.
A prominent operator who makes
Morgantown his headquarters, says
that LESS is reported about the Clay
district development than of any
place in the country. The number
of good wells that have come in there
is great, but the outside world has
heard but little about it. The ac-
tiyity there is equal to anything
ever seen at Mt. Morris or Doll S
run in there flushest days of oil
boom and when wells like the Ten
nant come in the people will then
begin to realize that the develop
ment there is on a grand scale
