We have it from reliable source
that the West Virginia & Pittsburg
railroad will be extended from Cam
den-on-Gauley to the mouth of Cherry
river, distance of about twenty
miles, this summer. Representatives
Of the company have been engaged
the past week in securing the right
of way and were successful, in all but
three instances, in securing reasona-
Bile terms. Condemnation proceed
ingS will be instituted in these, and
it is thought that work will COM
mence on the road at an early date.
This extension has become abso-
lutely necessary, as the supply of
timber to keep the big Gauley mills
going has become limited. The COM
pany owns an immense tract of fine
timber land along the route of the
proposed extension, enough to keep
their mills running for many years to
come. Webster Echo.

THE WAR PROGRESS.
A Few of the Things that have
been done in the last
twenty-four hours.

The Spanish minister of
foreign affairs has told the
newspapers that his country
has taken no step TO secure
peace and that it would not
do so very soon.
Having started an expedi
ton to Santiago the attention
ton of the war department
will be turned to getting one
ready for Porto Rico and it
will be sent as soon as it can
be gotten ready.
The threat of the United
States to send a fleet to bonn
bard the Spanish sea coast
cities has created the greatest
excitement in a number of
them and they are getting
ready for the worst.
The Cadiz fleet may sail
but the Spanish minister Of
marine is hopeless that it
will do anything as the ships
are absolutely worthless.
The marines who have
landed in Cuba spendanother
night in fighting the Spanish
off and are still on shore.
The Democrats of the
House hold a caucus and de-
eide to oppose Hawaiian an
nexation. The vote on the
question may be taken to-
day.
The second expedition to
the Philippines is on board
ship and it will sail to-day or
tomorrow.

The following letter from Frank

the Baltimore will be of very great
interest TO every one who knows him
here. This is the first letter that
has been received from him since
the battle, and has been eagerly
awaited by those who know him here.
1t was written five days after the
battle. The letter does not say very
much about what he did while the
fight was going on, but those who
know him will be ready to assert that
he is not the least brave of the host
of heroes who faced death in many
forms in the harbor SO far from friends
and home on that May morning which
shall ever live in the memory of an
admiring world.

The Small Pupil ON "War."

My pa has gone to fight the Span
iards, an they amt been no row at
our house since he left. Ma says
peace was declared when he went.
And pa-he wrote home and said he
thanks God for war, as now he'll have
a holiday, an he said he hopes the
war'll last ten years, and then end so
far from home he can't get back, an
when ma read that she said, "Amen. "
They goes on thes that way. But I
guess if pa was killed she'd put on
mournin' for him an make out like
she was sorry. Men is curious, but
women is curiouser, and neither one
knows more'n they orter know. At

have They had everything against
them. The time which had passed
since the case began. the removal
and death OF the witnesses and all
the circumstances which had so pow
erfully assisted them in the incep
tion of the case wsre lacking this
time They did the very best thing
that they could have done and that
is the feeling which is shared by ev,
cry one.
Had the case gone to trial the
county would have been put to an
enormous additional expense and
nothing more in the way of a SEN

cured
The wind up Of the case is salts
factory to every one Public opin-
ion which at the former trials was
so strong against Musgrave has
yeered around and the prevailing
opinion is now that no matter how
guilty he may be he has been pun
ished enough.
This term of Imprisonment will
end the most celebrated case in the
history of the county and it will
end as no one expected it to do a
very short time ago.

POLITICAL CHAT.

Several M0nOngalians Mentioned for
Various Offices Stewart and Fast
C0mplimented - As the Wheeling
News Sees 1t.
Allan b. Smith, writing from this
place to the Wheeling News says:
1t is believed here that Dayton will
get the majority of the delegates from
Marion, though Editor Powell is wag-
ing bitter war against the congress
man on account of butchered postoffice
ambitions. Powell was treated fairly
but the influence Of the Flemings
who begged the office is greater than
the journalists.
Monongalia will probably send Ed
gar Stewart, assistant prosecuting at
torney, to the legislature. Mr.. Stew
art is the leader among the younger
element of the Republican party here
and can have the nomination for the
asking. He is one of the brightest
young attorneys at the West Virginia
bar.
Col. Richard Ellsworth Fast may
possibly be groomed as dark horse
for the congressional nomination
should the tide turn against Dayton,
which, however, does not seem likely.
1t is only question of time when
Col. Fast will go to the senate, as he
has been rising in influence ever since
he so ably led the Republican major
ity in the state senate at the last
session.

We then proceeded on our way with

the bugler sounded general quarters,

$500 MORMoNS IN ONTARIO.
An Active Propaganda and Many
Converts Mada.

OTTAWA, July 20.-Considcrable alarm has
been recently excited in certain parts OF tho
province by the spread Of Mormonism. A re-
ligious body known as the Latter Day Saints
tho official designation OF the Mormons-have
for some time carried on a very active propa-
ganda in western Ontario. and made many
converts. Special attention has been drawn to
their success owing to their having held open
air baptismal services. at which. regardless Of
the season. converts hnve been immersed in
tile lake. although at times 1t was necessary TO
cut holes through the ice In order 10 perform
the ceremony.
This Is the only province in which any sus-
tanned Mormon, missionary effort has been
made. or IL. which there arc any organized
churches. The head Of the Church In Canada
is Elder II. c. Evans Of London, Ontario, who lie
one Of the twelve apostles constituting the gov
erning body Of the sect. There are ahoutlO0
congresations in the province, with total mem
beTship OF about $500. Fifteen missionaries
are at work in Ontario. There Is no paid min
lstry, the Eeliglous exercises being conducted.
as among Quakers. by men who earn their liy-
ing on week days in ordinary worldly calllnGs.
