she stated that the money was given
her by a man whom she said she
did not know, aud the description
she gave of the man was closely
aoted by the officers, and search
Tor the unknown has been going en-

DEATH.

Written for THE ARous.
We all know that we must die
And pass from earth away,
How short the longest life indeed
It's just a feeting day.
Death we find in every home
To lay our friends SO low.
Some of us live for many years
Then 20 the grave we go.
Dying none can miss the call
However wise or great.
The summons is for all;
1t may be soon or late.
Death is in the blooming flowers
And every blade OF grass.
rything dow Ii here OF ours
Must soon decay at last.
Thus monster death we dread il TO
With all its pains and sighs,
We ask sometimes, oh. is il true,
That every mortal dies ?
Death, where'rall our friends that's gone
You've moved them all away,
o, then on Us do stay thy hand
We every moment pray.
o, where are all those warriors great
Who fought the battle brave,
That monster death has come TO take
And they are in the grave.
o, where are all those christians dear,
Who for their Savior died?
Death has taken and they're gone
With Christ the crucfied.
Stephen too, sad death did meet
And on his knees did cry,
o, Jesus do my soul receive
For / 80 soon must die.
Our Savior met this monster death
And on the cross did cry.
O, Father let this passing breath
Though for man must die.

Returns 20 West Virginia.

He Sells His New York Beanery and
Returns TO West Virginia
The following concerning Colo.
mel n. w. Fitz- Gerald's New York
experience is from the Morning
Adcertiser, of that city. Colonel
Fitz Gerald's West Virginia home
is at Terra Alta. He is Populist
leader and ran on that ticket for
Congress in the Second district in
1892, receiving only GOO votes out
of total vote of AZ, 900. The Id.
vertiser says:
Colonel N. w. Fitz Gerald, who
rose to fame IN New York because
he was proprietor of restaurant
IN Nassau street, called the Climax,
sold his business on Wednesday
night and left rather suddenly yes.
terday morning "for his old home
in West Virginia." but no one
could tell exactly where.
When Mr.. Fita-Gerald's selling
out and departure became kaewn
several men who said they were his
creditors called at the Climax aud
made ANXIOUS inquiries regarding
his whereabouts and the condition
Of his affairs.
superintendent Chapman an.
swered all inquiries as best he
could. lie said he had boon in Mr..
Fitz-Gerald's employ for a year and
a half, and that ne did not believe
that there WAS more honorable
man in the world; that he was more
than able to pay all his debts, and
he was positive he would return and
do so.
"In fact" said Mr.. Chapman,
81 believe he can pay $40 for every
81 he owes. Here is a letter re.
ceiyed from him at 2 o'clock this
afternoon, in which he says he will
return IN few days and settle all
bis obligations.
superintendent Chapman would
not state If Mr.. Fitz.Gerald owed
much money. Nor would he di.
vulge the names Of the purchasers
beyond saying "a new company
would take hold in a few days"
The Climax has had a rather
romantic and sensational career.
So has its former owner. First OF
all, 1t employed girls as waitresses.
They soon became popular with the
patrons Of the place because OF
their attractive appearance and
democratic ways.
But when the novelty had worn
out, Mr. Fltz.Gerald conjured up
smother attraction. lie fitted out
his girls with bloomers. This drew
such crowds in front Of tho house
that il took several policemen to
prevent the street from becoming
impossible. The police practically
placed Fitz Gerald under arrest.
lie was taken to court and tho
charge OF "maintaiRing nuisance"
was preferred against him. lie
was discharged on promise Of doing
away with The boomers. lie had
announced bis intention Of suing
The city for 500, 900 damages for
interfering With his business.
Mr.. Fitz Gerald ran FOR Congress
in West Virginia against Mr. Wi
son, Of Wilson bill fame. lie was
rendered another nomination,
but declined aud came here to start
the restaurant
The Climax was doing business
as usual yesterday and The girls
wore their uuwoutcd smile, which
Iiadicsted that they At least we're not
