A Long Trip Overland.

Yesterday rather odd genius
struck Morgantown. He was en-
route to Virginia from South Dako-
ia where he had lived for the past
eleven years. His name was w. H.
Wright and he and his wife had
driven from South Dakota since the
first of March in wagon, Wright
was an intelligent man could talk OF
his trip in satisfactory manner.
He bought quarter section of land
in the west but succession of crop
failures had caused him to lose his
property. He has married daughter
who is well to do living at Swansbo-
ro, Virginia, and he was going to
that place. He estimated that it
would require ten days yet to com
plete the journey.

A few nights ago a terrible muir

issued an order that all dogs must

on the streets without muzzle will
be killed on sight. The town is
greatly alarmed
A country store in Braxton COZ

ward of $50 for their capture
Our snake story is from Wood
county this week, and according to
the Parkersburg Sentinel, its truth
fulness is vouched for by reliable
man. Here it goes: Mr.. Van Bibbee
set "a eggs under hen. A five-foot
blacksnake tackled the nest and
swallowed the whole IA, after which,
realizing that they would not digest
readily with the shells intact, he
wound himself around the trunk of
a tree tightly, until he crushed the
hen fruit into digestible mass. Mr..
Bibbee, who witnessed the entire
performance, promptly dispatched
him. When this truthful tale has
gone the rounds of the press, it will
be reported that the snake not only
swallowed the eggs, but the hen,
nest, box and all, saying nothing Of
the seven large leads already in his
stomach at the time.

The use of coke on the B. d. o.
royal blue trains is proving great
success, and it is said that all the
through passenger trains will even
tually be hauled by coke burning
engines. The absence of smoke and
cinders is great advantage; but it
is also said that the coke makes
steam more regularly.

The Arkansas Democrat refers to
the fact that there are over four
hundred thousand dollars in the
State Treasury and argues that
the legislature should provide for
loaning the State funds and not let
them lie idle. The News does not
agree with its able contemporary.
1t does not fancy the plan of the
State going into the market as a
money lender. If the revenues of
the State are such that large sums
lie idle in her treasury, the better
plan, we should think, would be to
reduce taxation and leave this mo
ney where it belongs in the pockets
of the people, and collect only
enough to meet the requirements

Elegance is one thing and strength

WHEN cotton was ten cents per
pound, the best -four was SO per 100
pounds. While cotton has fallen
half in price, flour has come down
more than half, And 1t is the same
with most articles worn and eaten.
SO the low price of cotton is not
such a calamity when duly consid-
cred, However, the farmer in
debt and depending upon that to
get out, feels the low price more
