THE SPORTING CRAZE
Merchant Tailor Misfits.

A chance of a life time to our Gus
toners. While we were in New
York we were lucky enough to buy
from one Of the finest tailoring firms
sixty seven suits made to order for
$4,000 $4,000 and $4,000 each. These
failed to fit the parties they were
made for. We bought them at our
own price. You can buy them at
nearly the price of ready made suits.
Don't delay and miss your chance.

Another of the interesting series OF
lectures being delivered by DR.. P. B.

interest in these is rapidly growing.
He still has several more to deliver
and no doubt will make these an in.

cordially invited to attend by the Y.

We Told You So.

Republican newspapers have poked
jibes at Democratic Legislatures in
the past at what seemed out-of-date
legislation and such as was apparently
unfriendly to the newspaper press.
But it must be said in frankness that
all the legislation so far had In this
State that benefited the newspaper has
come from Democratic Legislatures.
And it has remained to the everlast-
ing stigma of Republican Legisla-
ture in the year 1897, to repeal much
of law passed by democratic pre-
decessor that was benefit not only
to the newspapers but to the people
at large. We hope to see other Re-
publican Legislatures in West Wiz
ginia, but for the good name of the
party let the quality be improved. 1t
must be If the good things in store
for the state about which Governor
Atkinson speaks SO eloquently are to
be realized. We do not believe Tay-
lor county has contributed any OF the
class of legislators, however, that we
speak of above, and we say it to its
credit.-TGrafton Sentinel (Rep.)

Finger Broken.

C. S. Elliott received the first ac-
cident of the opening ball season
Saturday afternoon. He caught a
hot one and one of his fingers was
knocked out of place. He will not
be able to play any more this year.
The wound was very painful one
and will require some time to heal.

occasion on which the company has h. Id
its ball in the Twelfih-street hall, which
was formerly the gymnasium of the Acme

very prominent by the committee OF ar
rangements and decorations there was
nothing to suggest the large, bare armory

From ;the entrance at the foot OF the
stairway 10 the extreme end OF the ball
room were decorations, most OF which
were so arranged as TO convey some
specific idea. The finest effect was that at
the south end OF the hall. Here a large

I great war regarding the provement>'
of Clinton Park. A few days ago J. W.
Watson stated that J. w. Evans ex-presi-
dent of the Board OF Z ucation. had
neither poetry nor art in his makeup
and, consequently, could not admire any
thing poetic or artistic when be saw it.
This challenge seems to have animated
the opponents to the past and proposed
''improvements," for K. B Yelland signed
a petition, which was presented to the
Board of Works this morning, and il
surely cannot be charged that Mr.. YeIland
is not an artjs'.
Tue petition to the board is rather sar-
castle. IL says: we, the undersi ned
citizen, residing in that portion of the
clty commonly known as Clinton 90
hereby most vigorously protect against
the erection of a conservatory or no :
house in Clinton Park for the reason that
the park is not only too small for such an
affair, but that ii now contains more than
is desirable, and also we respectfully
