A GOOD CHANCE TO TRAVEL.
A Cippled Brakeman Gets Big Lot of
Transportation.

PARKERsBURG, W. Va, August 3.
The famous case for $4,000 dam
ages of Cliff Oliver, brakeman.
against the Ohio River Railroad,
has been compromised. Oliver was
injured on the road here and lost
an arm, and the case was settled by
the company paying Oliver $4,000
and giving him pass during his
life over the road, and passes over
other lines whenever he desires
them. Oliver received a free pass
to California and left for there to
day. Geo. C. Neale, of the plain
tiff's attorneys, got $4,000, and it is
rumOred that the company will also
settle with Judge George Loomis,
his other attorney.

The Emperor ofJapan has ofici-
ally recognized the Christian reIig-
ion. That is, he recognizes that his
subjects have as much right to en-
brace that form of belief as the
Shintoism whose tenets he himself
accepts. The Emperor appreciates
what Christianity has done for his
country. He realizes that it would
not be what it is today but for the
belief that has established schools
and hospitals and introduced the
civilized customs that have made
occidental nations great. There are
1853 missionaries IN Japan and no.
$50 native Christians. Christianity
is the key to the mystery of the
country's wonderful development
and the Mikado is wise enough to
see it and honest enough to confess
it. By the way, the greatest obsta-
Gle that American and European
missionaries in Japan now encoun-
ter in preaching their faith, is the
atheistic literature sent there from
home. Humanity as whole, is the
greatest of all mysteries.-Kanawha
Gazette.
