Charles A. Dana, the famous
editor of the New York Sun, died
last Sunday, October II, 1897, at a
ripe old age. He was the oldest
and ablest American journalist and
used to Be recognized as power in
the land, but in the last few years
he acted cratic and lost much of
his popularity and power for good.

Elk Senator ID. w. Gall, of Phil
ippi, one of the Democratic chiefs
of Division in the Postoifioe at
Washington, has been reduced from
a $4,000 per year position to a
$1,000 clerkship. This was done
to try and force him out of the
service and make room for some
good Republican. AS he is under
the Civil Service he could not be
discharged without good cause, but
they hope to drive him out by re-
ducing him in pay and position.

With a view to assisting West
Virginia school teachers who have
only the summer season for study,
and hoping to attract students in
large numbers from other States,
the regents Of the State University
have adopted the plan of the uni.
versity of Chicago, the only one IN
this country run on this plan, and
will not close the State University
at all this year. The year will be
divided into four terms, and all of
the departments will be open in the
summer, as wOll as during the regu-
lar school months. A system of
teaching by correspondence will
also be introduced for the great
majority who can not attend col
lege, and want some regular and
systematic instruction. Degrees
are not given for such work, but
under certain conditions, credit
will be made if such students
should ever enter the university.

This eliminating ceremony Of the
descent of the Holy Fire occurs OF
Easter eve; though the excitement be
gins on the preceding evening. Al
about two o'clock in the afternoon OF
Saturday, a grand procession of Greek
priests and monks move around the
Holy Sepulchre, the lamps of the
church being extinguished, one by one,
in sight of the vast, palpitating crowd.
Finally the patriarch enters the chapel
of the sepulchre, the priests intone
prayers, and the immense throne
sways to and fro with religious fervor.
The supreme moment arrives. The
patriarch energies, bearing aloft the
cleaning flame which is devoutly be.
lieved to have miraculously descended
from Heaven; priests come forth with
punches of lighted tapers, and an in.
describable tumult follows, each one
striving to light his own candle at one
of those borne by the priests. Every
where there is struggling and surging
and shouting, until the scene becomes
a veritable pandemonium. In the
struggle fierce fights are common, and
serious accidents sometimes occur
Even the occupants of the gallery make
efforts TO get their candles lighted, low.

beseeching their more fortunately To-
Gated brethren below TO "show benevo-
lence," by lighting their tapers fol-
them. The Mohammedan soldiers en-,
JOY the scandalous scene hugely, but
it is a source of shame to the truly
pious Christian. Much later in the
evening a really solemn service takes
place Priests and monks move around
the Holy Sepulchre singing divinely
while the pilgrims, each bearing a
lighted torch, shout: 'Halleluiah!"
1t is an impressive ending TO an other
wise painful spectacle.
