The Prospect Held Out by the
Weather Bureau.
THEN 4 THAW AND RAIN
Better Conditions Have Prevailed
Today. Than Heretofore.
ALL FROM THE SOUTH

Look out! Hold on to your gum boots
and don't take your fan and linen duster
out of soak just yet. True, this is a de-
lightful day, calculated to lure the butter
fly from the chrysalis and to coax. the prim-
rose to peep from under his coverlid OF
moss, but remember the morrow. One ray
of sunshine does not make summer. The
man who puts on canvas slippers and takes
off his coat does it contrary to the advice
Of the weather bureau.
A storm Is developing in the central gulf.
Our experience this winter has shown what
intimate relationship exists between
Washington and the gulf. Every storm
that has come into being down there has
made the trip to Washington. The distance
between us seems to make no difference to
the average gulf storm. Just as soon as 1t
begins to rustic the foliage Of the banana
plants and to blow the snowy blossom
from off the coffee trees, and to lash the
genial waters of the gulf into froth. that
storm becomes seized with a hankering to
get to Washington. And it usually gets.
Several visitors from the gulf region have
recently come to Washington, and now the
information comes over the wires that an
other one Is preparing to make us shfver.
Today at noon this same gulf storm had
reached Louisiana and Alabama, and at
New Orleans there was a precipitation In
inches of 1.96, and at Mobile of 1.22.
Rain has fallen throughout the middle
and western gulf states and light snow in
the Missouri valley and the lower lake
region. The temperature has risen in the
northwest and Atlantic states, and has re-
mained nearly stationary elsewhere.

The Com mmIttce Praised.


On the motion of Mr.. Warner the re-
port was adopted Mr.. Warner remarkng:
II cannot allow this opportunity to pass of
expressing my surprise and qualification
no less at the work of this committee than
at the great sacrifice of the members in
giving up their entire time to the work.
The first two members named (Mr. Wight
and Mrs. H. B. F. Macfarlandl have GER
tainly accomplished wonderful piece of
work.
Judge Cole also spoke in similar strain,
saying: Il can add my own testimony to
that of Mr.. Warner as to the efficient
work of this committee. 1 should say from
personal observation during the past three
weeks that if they attended to any of their
own personal affairs they must have done
so at night, they certainly gave up ev-
cry day and all day to the work of the can
vass.'
At the suggestion of Mrs. Macfarland
vote of thanks was rendered the board of
trade for use of their rooms in the Ames
building, and she also explained that the
$40 of the $40 appropriated for paid can
vassers had been used, the results of the
collections made by those paid canvasserS
netting between $500 and $500.
Other Business.
Mr.. Warner stated that the soup houses
were in a very fourishing condition and
were doing great good. AS he expected to
be absent from the city about month, he
suggested that Col Tracey look after the
Louisiana avenue kitchen and DR.. Ritchie
after the one in Georgetown. Those gen.
tlemen agreed to do that. Then Judge Cole
laid before the committee letter from
Policeman Samuel l.. Browne offering to
establish a soup house at Trinidad provided
the committee supplied him with materials.
The letter was referred to Maj Moore of
the police department.
Judge Cole also laid before the commit
tee letter from Mrs. A. 7. Stewart of the
Deacone5s Home. asking that the COM
mittee place that institution on the list of
distributing agencies.
Col Tracey stated that the home was al
ready one of the agencies of the commit
tee, although nothing had been heard from
them. Last year they had done much
good. AMI he was glad to learn that they
intended participating in the work again.
On his motion the communication was re-
ferred to the distributing committee.
The committee then adjourned, to meet

Stnbhed i'm the Back,

A young man named Long, work
ing at the Fuller Hutsinpiller fac
tory, and some fellow workmen
were having q pitched battle with
corn cobs at the noon hour Wed,
nesday, when Long in running
from the missels came in contact
with Eli Hicks, who was strolling
along with an open knife in his
hand.
Hicks warned Long against COM
ing closer to him in an apparently
testing manner and Long paid no
heed. For several moments Hicks
hourished his knife in Longs face
and dared him to intrude, when the
latter made a frantic rush at him
and received a cash in the thoracic
cavity two and one half inches in
depth and over an inch in length.
The wounded man was taken to
DIR. Claude Parker's office and the
ugly stab dressed. No arrest has
been made.-GaIlipolis Journal.

MORGANTowN, w. VA, Nov. I'll
The new Odd Fellows temple OF
Monongalia lodge, which is the ban
ner lodge of the State, was dedica-
ted to-day with pomp and ceremony.
Rain fell last night and snow all
day. and these clements interfered
materially with the occasion, as
marching was bad and the hundreds
of devices and banners presented a
sickly appearance, but the enthusi-
asm was not lacking, and the dem
onstration was the largest in the
history of the organization in West
Virginia. There were about three
thousand visitors here to-day, in
Guiding splendid representations
from every lodge in the State, and
visiting lodges from Western Penn
sylvania, with three bands of music.
Mayor Poster, in behalf of the
citizens, and Frank Cox on behalf of
Monongalia Lodge No. IS, welcom-
ed the visitors, and a competent
committee found them quarters.
The big parade came off at ? o'clock,
and consisted ola thousand members
of the order, several bands of music
and the sixty University cadets
The parade was under the direction
of Col. R. E. Fast. The dedicatory
exercises were public and were held
in the Opera House, which is part
of the temple. One fourth of the
crowd could not get in.
After a prayer by President
Goodnight and a song by the High
school pupils, the temple was dedi-
Gated by the Wheeling team with
beautiful ceremonies. Hon. G. W,
Atkinson, of Wheeling, delivered
an eloquent grafton, which was
roundly appIauded. Grand Master
Book made a short address, the ban
quets tonight at the Peabody and
Wallace hotels to the grand officers
and representatives, formed q hap
Ply part of the day. The grand
lodge met in session this morning
and organized, but adjourned to as
sist in dedicating the temple. a
busy session is looked for Friday.

AhaI Ida.

We find the following in the Pom
eroy Leader of Thursday. The
parties to whom reference is made
are known here, especially DR..
Williams:
Last spring Harry Williams, of
Point Pleasant, came up with a
woman who gave her name as Ida
Lewis. and procuring a marriage
license were married by Rev. Clark,
late one night. They stayed a day
at Mrs. Bradfeld's boarding house.
1t afterward developed that the
groom was Or Williams, a man
who had been ministering to the
ills of horse flesh at the Point, and
for a while played a high hand till
he married this woman, who, it
seems, did not enjoy as good a rep
utation as he did at that time. She
claimed TO be originally from Spen-
Ger, West Virginia.
Nothing more was thought of it
till a day or two ago, Mrs. Brad
field got a letter inquiring about
them. 1t was from H. De LAGRANGE,
of Athens, and he says the woman
has husband living, from whom
she has never been divorced, and a
child about I years old. Her real
name is De LaGrange. The where
abouts Of the couple is not known

Congress and the Monroe Doctrine.


There is good reason to believe
that at the coming session of Con-
gress a resolution will be introduce
ed and carried, setting forth, in
tones unmistakable, the adhesion of
the American people to the Monroe
doctrine.
Perhaps to this may be added an
expression OF the opinion of Con-
gress regarding the Guina bound
airy dispute. Last winter that body
recommended arbitration as the
proper mode of settling the contro-
versy; but Great Britain imposed
conditions upon arbitration which
would give her at the outset a large
part of the territory in dispute. 1t
was known beforehand that Ven
ezuela would not submit to those
conditions, and that the retention
by Great Britain of lands which
Venezuela believes to be hers would
be retention by force. The nom
inal assent of Lord Salisbury to ar
bitration was therefore a practical
rejection of it.
But whether a-more emphatic de.
claration on the boundary dispute
is or is not made by Congress in
specific terms we may expect to
find that body setting forth in the
plainest and most forcible words
that the Monroe doctrine is held by
this country and must be respected
by foreign nations.
We have been favored of late by
various views of the British press
regarding the Monroe doctrine.
Some of the critics have suggested
that it plays no part IN practical in,
ternational politics, or that it is
superanuated and obsolete. Some
times it is made the subject of pleas
ant banter, sometimes of denuncia-
ton, as being preposterous; and
one British commentator seems to
think that it might be supported by
England herself, perhaps meaning
as an abstract proposition, or when
England would not be troubled by
its application.
We think that after the coming
session of Congress not even the
most skeptical European critic will
doubt that the Monroe doctrine is
very much alive.-New York Sun.

A Horse Trading Record.


William Zias, of Lincoln county,
has State reputation as horse
trader. Last Saturday morning he
left home with a small 10 year old
bay mare valued at s65. He re-
turned home at 6 o'clock in the
evening, having traded eight times,
and the last trade he fell in possess
ion of the same little mare he start
ed out with in the morning. He
received S6S in money to boot dur
ing the day.
