oAMxACK SUSPENDED.
Baptist Education al Society Suspect
Crookedness.

PARKERsBURe, w. Va, Jan. A.
The annual meeting of the West
Virginia Educational Society of the
Baptist church, which adjourned
here to-day, developed quite SEN
satim and has caused no end Of
comment both in and out of the
church. The action was taken in
secret session, but enough has come
out to warrant the following state
ment, which is official:
The duties of corresponding or
field secretary have been taken out
of the hands of L. III. Cammack, of
Huntington, and Rev. r. B. Smith,
of the First Baptist Church Of this
city, has been put in charg g 70 the
remainder of the fiscal year. The
accounts of Cammack, who has, up
to January l, held the position Of
editor of the Baptist Banner, pub
lished at Huntington, are, it is al
legged, in such condition that the
management of the society deemed it
imperative to transfer the business
to other hands until an investiga-
ton can be made and the. exact
status of affairs discovered.
The Baptist denomination is the
largest in point of membership in
West Virginia and the educational
society outranks any similar demon
national institution. The financial
affairs of the society are large. Cam
mack is one of the best known and
most popular men in the State, and
his friends assert that nothing more
serious than unintentional errors
can be found against him.

THE LEGISLATURE ORGANIZES.
Who the Different Officers are and the
County They are from.

The first business that engaged
the attention Of the legislature on
converting last week was the election
of officers. The senate chose as its
President after lively scrap, Sena-
tor Whitaker, of Ohio county.
Hon. Brice w. Catlett, of
Morgan county, was the Democratic
nominee, John Il. Harris, of Wood,
was reelected clerk being opposed
by Holly G. Armstrong, of jackson,
(Dem. DIR. Devore, of jackson, was
elected Sergeant-at-Arms, Henry T..
Baker, of Grant, was the Democratic
nominee.
For Door Keeper C. c Hamrick,
of Webster, defeated A. J. Criswell,
Of Berkeley. All these officers were
elected by strict party vote.
IN THE HOUSE
For Speaker of The House, Sam'l
r. Hanen, of Marshal, and W. III.
McClung, of Greenbrier, (Dem J,
were nominated. Mr.. Hanen was
elected.
Elmer E. Hood and j. b. Peyton,
(Dem. were nominated for clerk and
Mr.. Hood was chosen.
Cyrus w. Crislip, of Roane, de-
feated Thos. d. Walsh, Dem. of
Calhoun, for Sergeant-at-arms.
j. N. Allen, of Taylor, was chosen
over w. T. Booten, Dem. of Wayne
as deer-keeper. These officers were
also chosen on strict party vote.

THE TITAN OF CHASMS.
A Mile Deep, ID Miles Wide, 217 Miles
Long, and Painted Like Flower.

The Grand Canon of the Colorado
River, in Arizona, is now for the first
time easily accessible to tourists. A
regular stage line has been establish
ed from Flagstaff, Arizona, on the
Atlantic & Pacific Railroad, making
the trip from Flagstaff to the most
imposing part of the Canon in less
than IL hours. The stage fare for the
round trip is only $1,000, and meals
and comfortable lodgings are provid-
ed throughout the trip at a reasona-
BILE price. The view of the Grand
Canon afforded at the terminus of the
stage route is the most stupendous
panorama known in nature. There
Is also trail at this point leading
down the Canon wall, more than 5000
feet vertically, to the river below.
The descent of the trail is grander
experience than climbing the Alps,
for in the bottom of this terrific and
sublime chasm are hundreds of noun
tains greater than any of the Alpine
range.
A book decribing the trip to the
Grand Canon, illustrated by many
full-page photographs, from especial
cngravings and furnishing all needful
information, may be obtained free
upon application to Jno. J. Byrne,

A BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE
Paid to Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan and
Their


happy nome Lille ny AhureN tSfHtEtes
Andrew Carnegie in the North
American Review after a terrific ar
raignment of the platform of Mr..
Bryan In the late campaign comes to
estimate the leader himself and pays
Il beautiful tribute to himself and
wife.
The article. AMn Bryan the Con
jurer," closes as follows. ~ need
not be assumed that with the pass
ing of Mr.. Bryan's new platform
there comes also the passing of Mr..
Bryan himself; on the contrary, it is
fer from improbable that he may yet
play 4 great part.
He is evidently earnest and SYM
pathetic, with thorough belief that
he has mission. OF his powers ii
is unnecessary to speak. He is an
interesting individuality, whom one
cannot help wishing to follow and
study.
The discovery of such couple,
and such home as that Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Bryan--for she seems almost
equally remarkable with her hus-
band-is something at which our
country may well be pleased and
may be pointed to as models of Tri
umphant Democracy. Both models
of purity in their simple lives, Who'll
ly free from ostentation, kind neigh
bors, ana earnest in their desire to
do their part toward making the
world little better; and, to crown
all, ardent lovers, devoted heart and
soul to each other, the wife standing
nobly at her husbands side through
out all his trials. 1t is beauti-
full picture, difficult to equal, imposs-
ible to excel in other lands. That
they are previously at fault in re
gard to human society and its COM
pick problems-not as to its ills, but
as to their cure, or what is far better
than cure, their prevention-is only
what we should expect. What young
inexperienced, generous heart has
not begun by being indignant at the
contrasts, and imagined wrongs Of
humanity, and lent itself to the adj
vocacy of nostrums for their cure,
the adoption of which would only
spread and aggravate the very ills
it would so fondly extirpate. Yet
these are the characters which in af-
ter life often learn to substitute eyo
luton for revolution, and do most
good, because, upon investigation,
they find that human society is not,
as they at first supposed of warning
elements, but that each of its parts
is mutually dependent upon the per
manent prosperity of all. The coun-
try cannot cease to retain kindly in
terest in Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan, nor to
expect to hear of them in the future;
nor can the American people as a
whole. without regard to party, fail
to be deeply touched by the sweet,
humble, loving home-the true pal
ace of all the yirtues-which the
political campaign has revealed to
the world, nor to pray that for many
long, happy years to come it may be
preserved,

The officials of a Wheeling chew
ing tobacco factory have received a
communication from "scrap" con
sumner which they will probably
treasure until their dying moments.
1t is unique testimonial, as will be
seen by the following copy:
Dear Gentlemen:

sideration in substantial way at
your hands for the elegant testimo-
NAL / can give you. For Is years
/ abstained from tobacco. / am a
married man, but for ten years the
joys of children never blessed our
union. l thought | would try tobac-
co, and I commenced about a year
ago and have been chewing it ever
since. Yesterday may wife present
ed me with a l2-pound bouncing ba-
by boy. Your tobacco has certainly
great virtues and l give you permits

G. w. Kramer, Sheldon, Iowa,
writes as follows: II had been troubled
with catarrh for over two years: so
bad at last that / could not work but
two or three days in week. tried
two doctors without any relief At
times / was so bad that could not

in an elevator for three years (among
the dirt and dust.)
No greater test could be made Of
any cure, than three years exposure
to the dust and dirt of grain eleya-
tor. This letter is sample Of those
we receive daily. They come unsolic-
tied and unrewarded. They express
the sentiments of the writer in words
direct and forcible.
A book on catarrh will be sent to

THE NEW COUNTY.
Reasons for Its Formation MaisIy Po-
litical.

One of the most important meas
ures that win come up before the
legislature is bill to create new
county-the fifty sixth. 1t is pro
posed to take slices off of Wetzel,
Marion and Monongalia counties to
form the new one which will have
10000 population ard cover an area
OF 400 square miles. 1t will include
such towns as Warrington and
Smithfield. II takes in great oil
producing territory and for that rea-
son will be wealthy. Warrington
will be the county seat, being situa-
ted near the center and the only rail-
road town of Importance within the
limits. One reason for the creation
Of the county is that it is too costly
and inconvenient for Warrington
and nearby residents to go to Fair
mont when they have any litigation
on hands. Again, for the people
who reside in that section of Wetzel
which will be embraced in the new
county it is equally as expensive
and more inconvenient for them to
be compelled TO cross to New Mar
tinsville for business that has to be
transacted at the county seat.
There are political reasons, however,
that hold forth more promise of the
the bills passing than any yet men
toned. The new county will be
strongly republican, and at the same
time will take a goodly number of
democrats from Wetzel. 1t will
have two delegates to the legisla-
ture whom the republicans can de
pend upon In addition to largely in
fluencing their way the two state
senators OF the district to which it
will belong. Mass meetings have
been held at Warrington and oJher
places in the proposed county and
strong resolutions passed recon-
mending the passing of the bill ere
ating 1t. In the lobby the bills in
terests VIII be properly cared for
Attorney Barrett, of Warrington, is

Sold the SherifraIty.

Keyser Tribune: We are inform
ed through reliable Republicans that
Mr.. Heskett has sold the sheriffalty,
to which the people elected him, to
Floyd Knight in consideration of
Knight furnishing all sureties and
paying him $500 per year. If Mr..
Heskett couldn't give bond, or didn't
want or couldn't accept the Office, he
had no right to ask forit, and should
have let some one else come before
the people. AS it is he has been
guilty of practicing deception on
the voters. The people not only
want to know who they are voting
tor in name, but in fact as well, and
there are many who would not have
voted for him had they known that
there was any possibility Of the deal
that has been made.

Arbitration Treaty Signed.

A grand historic event took place
at the state department at Wash
ington last week in the signing of
the general arbitration treaty be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain on behalf of the two govern
ments by the British minister and
the American secretary of state, 1t
remains only for the senate to rati-
fly the treaty, and it will have full
force and effect. The arbitrator
are to be named from the highest ju-
dietary of the two countries, and in
case they disagree King Oscar of
Sweden is named as umpire. All
questions Of difference between the
two countries are to 90 to this tri-
bunal, ordinary negotiations failing,
except those relating to national
honor and sovereignty. This treaty
is the outcome Of the Venezuelan
trouble, which at one time threaten
ed to involve Great Britain and the
United States in war, and singular
to relate has brought the two coun-
tries by this arbitration treaty in
closer accord than ever before. 1t
may be too much to expect, but
some sanguine statesmen have hopes
that this general arbitration treaty
between the United States and Eng
land may influence all civilized ma
.tions of the world to adopt the same
peaceful policy Of adjusting differ
ences.

Things are again running smooth
ly at the University and every de-
partment feels the impetus gained
by two weeks rest. Quite a num-
Der of new students have entered
bringing the total enrolment up to
422, this being an increase over last
year of "a and it is confidently ex-
pected that it will be 450 by June.
Although there are a great many Of
the old students back quite con-
siderable number have not returned
but for the most part they are of
class that are not particularly re-
nowned for brilliancy of intellect or
scholarly attachments. This term
bids fair to witness great deal Of
hard work as there is nothing to de-
tract attention and nothing to do
but to work.
