How a Kodak Made Trouble for Party
of Jolly bnt Harmless Girls.


Spsota, TSisSrGm 20 ne Rsclsssr.
MoRGANTowN, w. Va, February 2.
"A kodak belonging to q Morgantown
young gentleman has been the means OF
placing several very prominent and
pretty young ladies in an unlooked-for
but withal attractive position. The
Young gentleman has sister who is
quite an expert amateur photographer,
and some time ago several Of Der lively
friends, who have seen many pic
lures OF stage beauties as sent out
by cigarette firms, from wondering
how they would themselves look on
card board determined TO get the young
lady to take "peep" At them "just for
the fun OF the thing" never, OF course,
expecting the portraits TO fall into mas
culine hands or be contaminated by
masculine eyes, but 10 be treasured and
admired in secret among themselves.
With this end in view they all met az
the young amateurs room, and the
young lady's brother who next day ran
across the negatives, with several OF
his friends 10 whom he showed them,
one and all are now willing TO be quail
fed that the meeting OF the "frisky"
young ladies' was highly successful, and
that all the cigarette stage beauties
fade into insignitcance beside the six
Maids OF Athens"
A stand OF beautiful potted flowers
occupies position In the young ladies'
room and formed Background
for on, OF the pictures, which her
naught' brother has dubbed, "Six Ewes
of Eden" Another in which the sub
ject, stately blond, appears In q cos
tune suitable only for an extremely
warmer climate, holding palm leaf fan
in her hand and with her eyes turned
upward and her whole attitude one Of
expectancy. this ungrateful wretch OF a
brother has entitled Waiting for the
Annie TO Drop" The young ladies
called on the owner OF the kodack in 4
body and, as he says, flooded his room
with tears" as they plead for
the return OF the pictures.
He at last gave up the negatives aud
photographs n ade from them, but says
the girls still believe he has withheld
some OF the pictures, and come what
may he is sure of six faithful friends to
the day Of his death, even II each and
everyone Of them would enjoy hearing
OF him going to work In powder fac
tory.
The select few who have the conf
dence OF the young man say that, "as a
work of art from nature the Maids OF
Athens would give anything at the
Worlds Fair half way around the track
and then distance it,"

my letter Of January l, requesting him
'at his earliest convenience" TO give
me the specifications contained In

and has been deiveted too late to either
copy or reply TO in time for the steamer
leaving at 3 p. m. to-day.
There is one extract, however, TO
which l think your attention should be
called, wherein it is stated: This gov
ernment has been aud now is subjected
to the necessity of increased watchtUl-
ness and large additional expense,
which but for such attitude would have
been unnecessary.

to negative them. With this explRua-
tion l submit them to your consdera-
tion. The next steamer leaves here

and operators here to-day failed TO reach
an adjustment OF the wage question.
A step towards il, however, was taken.
When the joint meeting was called TO
order at 10 a. m. President Nugent an
nounced that the miners had not had
an opportunity to discuss the matter
among themselves and asked a
postponement CT the conference
to 2 D. m. for this purpose. At
that time a further postponement to
seven D. N. was made. Tonight the
operators were informed that the miners
had concluded that the wage scale
could not be changed except by state
meeting OF miners. II was agreed TO
call meeting OF delegates represent
ing all the miners OF the state here next
Friday. The call will be issued tO-mor-
row. The operators proposition was
not considered.

WASHINGTON, D c., February p
The great record Capt. A. p. Garden,
OF Wheeling, is making as the head Of
the Capital Police force, is matter Of
much pride and qualification to his
many Wheeling and West Virginia
friends. Promoted, without his solicit
tatlon and almost without warning from
the position of Messenger in the
marble room of the Senate to the COM
mand OF the whole force of forty-eight
men, Capt. Garden has shown from the
start that he was well qualified for the
position, and has repeatedly earned the
commentator of Col. Bright and others
above him as we'll as praise from many
members of both Senate and House.
The big crowd of Thursday was effec-
lively handled by Capt. Gardens men
"a severe test OF efficiency. A Oill is
now pending in the House to increase
the force under Capt. Garden from
fOrty-eight 20 sixty men.
