A Progressive Newspaper.

The Times has larger circulation
by many thousand than any other
daily newspaper published in Pitts
burg. This is admitted even by it's
competitors. The reasons for it are
not hard to find. The Times is a
tireless newsgatherer, is edited with
extreme care, spares no expense to
entertain and inform its readers. 1t
prints all the news in a compact
shape, caring always more for quality
than quantity. 1t keeps it's columns
clean, but at the same time bright.
Nothing that is of human interest is
overlooked by it. 1t aims to be relia-
BILE rather than sensational. 1t be-
lieyes in the gospel Of get there, but
it gets there with due respect for the
facts. Test any department of it you
choose-political religious, markets.
sporting, editorial, society, near town
news-and you will find The Times
may be depended upon. So year, 6
cents week.

Resolutions of Regret Passed.

The faculty of the University at a
recent meeting held since the death
of Col. John A. Robinson who died
at his home in Mineral count on
Sunday passed resolutions of regret
on his death. Mr. Barbe, the tray
cling agent of the University was
appointed a committee on the part
of the faculty to attend the funeral
but on account of the lateness Of the
action he was unable to do so.
When the resolutions of regret were
passed several members of the facul-
ty spoke in feeling terms of their
affectionate remembrance of the
dead man. He was for years the
President of the Board of Regents
and was an intimate friend Of many
of the faculty who feel in his death
a deep sense of personal loss.

Good Prices for Farm Lands.

A B. Price has bought part of the
A. W. Tenant land which was sold
on order of the court in order to set
tie up the estate of the deceased
One hundred and fifty acres were
bought and the price paid was a
very good one. The land is not at
all valuable for farming purposes
but the fact that it is supposed to
contain oil is responsible for the
price which it brought, $6,651. The
land lies on Dunkard creek in this
county.
Another part of the same farm
consisting of 81 acres was bought by
Samuel Strosnider who paid for it
the sum of $1,215. These prices
were it not for the fact that the
oil was wanted would never have
been realized on the land.

the young artist, and the program in
return delighted the audience inn
measureably.
Enlarged experience and painful

last evening was an excellent test of
her versatility, Miss Gray has a
charming stage presence. There is
a refreshing naturalness in her work
She is entirely free from mannerisms.
Each number of the program was

ment brought sincere praises for the

WARREN HOSKINS BACK.
He Has Fully Investigated the
Death of His Brother Jerry.

H0skins Has Decided that the Death
Was Accidental Various Discrepan-
eies in the stories told by Various In
terested People-The Murder Theory
AbaDdoned.-Suic Proved lmpos-
sible = Accidental Drowning Some
Queer thing About the Affair The
truth May Never be Known.
Warren HosEins is back from Park
ersburg where he went to investigate
the death of his brother Jerry at the
instigation of several local parties who
were not satisfied with the number OF
stories that were in circulation about
the matter, nor with many of the cir
cumstances in connection with the
drowning. However his quest did
not reveal the fact that his brother
was murdered, as many people here
thought, nor that he committed sui
eide, but the fact seems to be estab-
lished that he was accidentally
drowned
Shortly after the arrival of Warren
in Parkersburg he found the bear-skin
overcoat which it was said Jerry had
filled with rocks and jumped into the
river, and refusing assistance had
drowned for the love a girl who had
rejected his advances This upset
the story and an interview with the
girl still further did away with it.
She said that there had nothing of
the kind occurred between them and
that she did not reject him. Sc this
story was knocked out. The murder
theory was then rejected by Warren,
after he he hal found several eye wit.
nesses to the drowning.
They averred that Jerry had fallen
out of boat while they were crossing
the river which was very high at the
time. The current was very swift
and he was sucked under a nearby
raft and was unable to help himself
or to take the assistance which they
sought to give him. He came up
once after he sank and was seen no
more after that and his body was
never recovered. The river was out
of lock and the body is supposed to
to have been carried down into the
Ohio and it will never be recovered in
all human probability. Warran was
fully satisfied that this was true
story of the death of his brother, and
he collected the effects left by the
dead man and came home.
While this story may be true, and
we are not here to say that it isn't,
yet il does seem queer how all those
different tales about the affair got
started, and why it was that the par
ties present when the accident took
place should act in such a suspicious
manner as they have acted. Be that
as it may, the chances are that if they
were not telling the truth that it will
never be found out and we will have
to believe that they had no hand in
the death Of the unfortunate boy.

At the Opera House Next Week.

The Macauley- Patton Company,
supporting Miss Ida Florence Camp
bell, has been secured by the mana
ger for the attraction, opening their
engagement Monday evening with
the beautiful moral, instructive and
interesting Pastoral Comedy Drama,
1.-THE Minister'S Son. This attrac-
tion is far superior to the regular run
Of repertoire companies, giving a
double show in the same evening"
comedy or drama and a vaudeville
show, having no waits between the
acts. In other words, a continuous
performance, and numerous special
ties will be introduced both during
the play and between the acts,
among them being the latest fads.
This troupe plays the larger cities
at much higher prices. We have
persuaded the manager Of the attrac-
tion TO reduce his prices owing to the
size of our town, and can be congrat-
ulated for securing such large com
pany for a whole week. The COM
pany consists of about eleven people
and they carry special scenery for
their scenic productions.
There will be an entire change Of
bill nightly, including a complete
change Of specialties.

BASKET BALL GAME.
Match Game Tomorrow in the Gym.
The Boys are Improving Very Fast.
There are some Fine Players Here.
Coach Well Pleased.

Murray Watt of the d. G. and a. G.
has been hard at work training the
University in basket ball and is very
well pleased with the showing some
of them are making. He is especially
commendatory Of the playing of Yea
ger who he says is the best man at
the game he ever saw. That is he
gives promise of making the best
player. OF course the game is nearly
new to him and he has not yet struck
his gait. Mr.. Watt thinks that the
school can turn out splendid team
and one that can go against the best
of them. The boys are taking a more
lively interest in the sport and they
are becoming very proficient. A
match game will be played tomorrow
afternoon in the gymnasium. Prac-
tice has been held every night this
week and there are number of first
class players among the boys. From
the number of good players two teams
will be selected and these two will
play tomorrow. The contest is bound
to be hot one. A small admission
fee will be charged and it is hoped to
raise enough money by this means to
pay the expenses of the coach. Fiji
teen cents will be charged.
The lineup of the teams is fol-
lows:
McWhorter Guards Miller and
and Barbe Whitman

HELPED UP.
Dayton's Bill to Make Judicial Dis
tricts of West Virginia, Goes to a
Special Committee.

WASHINGTON, D. c., February g.
Congressman Dayton hoped that his
bill to divide West Virginia into two
judicial districts would be favorably
reported from the judiciary committee
to the House to-day. Instead of
that the bill with four or five others
of a similar character, was referred
to special subcommittee for invest
igation as to the need of the creation
of the new offices called for by them.
A petition signed by 100 West
Virginia lawyers, protesting against
the Dayton bill, which clerk of the
United States Court Delliker, Of
Parkersburg, laid before the judiciary
committee to-day, probably had
something to do with to-day's unfav-
orable action of the committee.

GOUrf

to submit the Case to the supreme
Court
Judge Okey johnson has gone to
Charleston where he will to morrow
submit the case of Elvira b. Archer
VS.. Baltimore Building and Loan
Association. This case interests all
who are members or are interested
in any way in the numerous building
and loan associations in the state.
The matter of usury is to be decided.
Can a building and loan association
collect more than the legal rate of
interest of six per cent. They as "a
well known fact do collect very
much higher rate than that and the
court will be called upon to decide
whether they can lawfully do So
Should the decision of the court 90
against the association very great
amount of property in the state will
be involved in law suits as the
amount of building and loan bust
ness that is transacted in the state is
enormous. The brief which has been
prepared by the Judge for submits
sion to the court is pronounced by
those competent to judge as a most
able and comprehensive document.
