Mrs. LaogtY's Jewels Stolen.

During the absence of Mrs. Lang
try. the celebrated English beauty
from her home in London a forged
order was presented at her bank for
her level box, which contained $780,
600 worth of Jewels. The box was de-
livered to the bearer of the order.
Mrs. Langtry returned home a few
days ago, and when she sent to the
bank for her Jewels she learned that
the box had been delivered under the
circumstances above indicated on Au-
gust a. Mrs. Langtry Immediately
drove to the Office of Sir George Lewis,
@. c., her legal adviser, and informed
him of what had taken place. Scot
land Yard was at once notified of the
robbery. Up to the present time no
trace has been found of the missing
Jewels.
There is reason to believe that the
value placed upon the jewels, which
have so mysteriously disappeared, is
not exaggerated, as they have long
been famous, and included three tiaras,
one being of diamonds and pearls, an
other of diamonds and rubies and a
third of diamonds and turquoises, be-
sides several necklaces and revieres
The box, in fact, contained nearly all
the gems and precious stones that Mrs
Langtry possessed. The order upon
which it was delivered was written on
paper marked with Mrs. Langtry {
town address.

which Stonewall Jackson was born, and
over which he was carried on his first
visit to the outer world. 1t is need
less to say that it is relic that we
prize very highly.
Take it all in all, the meeting was
certainly one of the most pleasant and
profitable in the history of the Asso-
citation. Some plans were set aAoat
that we hope will lead to the material
advantage of the editorial fraternity.
And the courtesy of the people of
Clarksburg will long be a fragrant
memory in the hearts of those who
were SO fortunate as to be the recip-
tents of their many kindnesses.

No mystery about it. When the Shak-
ers offered some time ago to give away
a bottle of their Digestive Cordial 20 any
one who might call at their New York
Office, there was great rush and great
many people thought they were crazy.
Subsequent events prove il 10 have
been very clever advertising transac-
ton, for although they gave away thous-
ands of bottles, it was in the end prof.
table; nearly everyone that took a free
bottle came back for more and paid for
it with pleasure, saying they had derived
better results from its use than from any
other medicine they had ever used.
There is nothing so uniformly success
full in the treatment of stomach troubles
as the Shaker Digestive Cordial, and
what is better than all, il relieves at once.

The editors are under lasting debt
of gratitude to President Stuart F.
Reed, the local newspaper men and the
good people of Clarksburg generally for
unbounded hospitality and unceasing
efforts to make their visit an enjoyable
one. From the time they landed un-
til they took their reluctant departure
they were the recipients Of the great
est kindness, and they enjoyed every
minute of their stay. About one hum
dred newspaper men, "a number of whom
were accompanied by their wives or
sisters, were present, and all Of them
were entertained free at the Traders
Hotel, whose doors were first thrown
open to receive the editors. We think
the Traders Hotel is decidedly the
finest hostelry in the State. The build
ing is handsome structure of red and
buff brick three stories in height, COW
ering half a square. 1t cost about
$4,000, and is complete and up-to-
date in all its appointments, with every
comfort and convenience for its guests.
The lobby is handsome apartment
with tiled floor and handsomely carved
oak fittings; the parlOrs are luxurious
ly furnished and beautifully decorated;
the dining-room is model of good taste
and convenience; and every chamber
in the house is well-lghted and venti-
lated and costly furnished. Soft car
pets cover all the floors, and the fres-
Going is most beautiful throughout,
The fare was, like the other features
of the house, all that could be desired
indeed every detail of the place was
that of a frst-class modern hotel. Mr..
w. T. Barbour, hotel man of much
experience, is the manager, and under
his skillful direction everything moved
smoothly and satisfactorily.
Under the same roof with the hotel
and a part of the building, is the new
opera house, perfect gem OF play
house that has just been finished
Tuesday night the editors were enter
tanned there by company composed
of local talent, which played 1.-THE
Fakir," comic opera. "The Fakir'
words and music-was composed by
Mr.. Gus Smith, musical genius o
Clarksburg, who also took a prominent
part in its rendition. 1t was not only
well-written but charmingly acted by
the young ladies and gentlemen who
made up the cast, all of whom were
from Clarksburg. 1t made great hi
and called forth many deserved com
pliments for its clever author and tai
ented performers.
Wednesday night the Association
held its final meeting in the opera
house. After an eloquent introduc
tory address by President Reed, Gov
ernor VIM. A. MacCorkle made
speech on "The Future Of West Vir
GINA, in which he showed the won
derful possibilities of our State wher
our natural products shall have beer

OUR good neighbor, the Charlestown
Free Press, has just begun its eighty
fifth annual volume. Ifthere is a clean

siderate of all things entitled to con-
sideration, we do not know Of it, No
paper in our State has as witty and
sparkling an editorial column, and no
editor has more of our personal and
professional respect. We wish for the
Free Press yet many years of useful
ness and its full share of the good things
of life.
