WHY ANOTHER BIG CROP
Farmers Talk and Go on Preparing
For Wheat

NJ H. Warren from near Cheney was in
the city yesterday buying plows and max
ing preparations to put out big wheat
crop. He says there viii be sown this fall
three acres of wheat for every two that
was sown last fall. And the peculiar part
of 1T is that nearly every farmer who
expresses an opinion on the matter thinks
there is a probability that next year crops
will be next thing to failure.

CHARLESTON, w. VA, May ID
Captain Douglas Settle, the United
States mastering officer at Camp Lee,
was receiving the congratulations of
his comrades to-day upon his promo
tion from the rank of lieutenant,
which was reported from Washington
yesterday.
Captain Settle mustered in COM
pany d, of Clarksburg, this morning.
Company I, of Berkeley Springs, was
ordered up for muster, but when Cap
tain Householder counted his men he
found that he lacked twenty-five to
make up the required number, num-
Der of them having left the camp since
yesterday. Captain Settle is very
much worried over the difficulty of
getting the men ostick after agreeing
to volunteer. Be ides company |
there are two other companies that
remain to be mustered in. These are
X, Of Ansted, lacking eight men, and
L. of Petersburg, lacking ten. AS
there are
A NUMBER OF RECRUITS
on the road here from different points
in the state, it is expected that these
companies will be filled out by Mon
day next and mustered in. The regi-
mental officers will then be mustered
in and the regiment will be complete.
A few days ago the governor re-
quested the secretary Of war to permit
the regiment to be organized, under
the provisions Of the West Virginia
law, which provides for several off :
GERS not provided for by the United
States laws. An answer was received
to-day, stating the secretary Of war
refused to allow the change asked for
but allowing three additional bitallion
adjutants.
The officers were receiving their pay
at the adjutant generals office to-day
and the privateS will receive their pay
as soon as the pay rolls are made out.
A great many Of the officers and men
have been out Of money and their pay
at this time is very gladly received.

TRUE STORY OF TWO LOVERS.
nv EDWARD SIMON.

By EDwARp SIMON.
1t was nearly nine at eve. In
italy night is the day of life. AL
one in one of the pleasant groves
of the garden di Blanca Cspello
near Florence; 1 was dreaming OF
the destiny of that beautiful cele-
brated, and perhaps sinful woman,
whose name it bore. Youth, pow
er, wealth, love, all had vanished.
Oh! Blanca Capello what art thou
now? A handful of dust, did l
whisper! If you wish to pray for
her soul, come and you will be
blessed, was heard behind me.
Somewhat surprised, I turned and
beheld, young girl in religious
costume, who offers to lead me to
the altar dedicated 10 prayer by
the daughter of Bianee Cspello.
She was not yet q nun but q mo-
vice of an UPHOLSTERED monastery;
she might have been fourteen
years old, of a graceful physiog-
nomy owing to the charms of that
excessive freshness which belongs
! to infancy and gives promise Of
extreme beauty.
The novice preceded me q few
steps only and I was possessed ol
the irresistible inclination to fol

interview with great interest.
We had crossed the garden 81
tuated behind the cemetery; W
were walking along the wall OF
convent. At the extreme end
small door led into q spacious en-
. closure and I recognized the in

Penitents, an order which is j

large porticos, lamp was burr
