TO Insure Registered Mail.

Hitherto the government has otfer-
ed only partial guarantee for the Sc
curity of articles sent through the
mail as registered matter. If the re-
sponsibility for the loss could be fixed
and an idemnity be collected, the loser
was reimbursed to that amount, but
the postotfice department had no
funds of its own to draw upon for
this purpose. BY an act of congress
Sc, 600 is now available to pay losses,
but the indemnity to be paid on any
one piece of registered mail must not
exceed $40.
Considering the business done, the
appropriation Of $4,000 for years
losses seems a small sum. But as the
percentage Of loss is low, and the year
ly appropriation is evidently intended
to meet only the losses which might
otherwise fall on comparatively poor
people, part of the So 600 may be COW
cred into the treasury at the end of
the fiscal year. The total number of
registered pieces of mail last year was
IA, $50, 083. OF these only 149 were
lost on account of carelessness on the
part of postal employees: 1877 failed of
prompt delivery because of depreda-
tions by men employed in the post
offices; 227 losses were due to depreda-
tions by outside parties, and 823
pieces were destroyed by fire in post
offices, wrecks of railroad trains, and
and steamboats,.
AS many of the postal employees
held responsible for registered mail
are under bond. it is an easy matter
for the government to recover from
them for losses charged against them,
and those who do not furnish bonds
will as a rule pay for the losses rather
than be discharged from the service,
which is their only alternative. OF
the losses last year recoyeries were
made amounting to more than 10
per cent.

Coming The Andrews Opera Co.

The management of the Opera
House is greatly encouraged by the
subscription list for the Andrews
Opera company. The public generally
have taken very kindly to this organ
ization, and its appearance here on
Wednesday next is now an assured
fact. A few more names on
the subscription list at Madera's
store is all that is needed. Manager
Somehow is fortunate In secur-
ing this splendid attraction on the
above dates, and the announcement
will be a most pleasant surprise to our
opera-loving people.
The cast includes the famous tenor
robusto, Mr.. Frank w. Walters. Mr..
Andrews has engaged the marvellous
soprano, Miss Myrta French, who for
the past two years was the soloiSt
With Sousa's band. This peerless
artist, who is unquestionably Ameri-
cas- greatest prima donna, will be
at her best in both productions to be
given here. The company consists
of forty talented singers, which in
cludes the same eloquent chorus.
Owing to the heavy expenses of this
organization they come only on guar
antee. All who desire to assist in
securing this splendid attraction
will please call or send name at once
to MADEIRA Bros. for the number OF
seats desired. Persons signing list
will have first choice of seats.

OUR JOLLY JACK TARS.
Better Glass of Men Enlist i'm the Navy
Now Than Formerly and They Have a
Trade When Discharged.

1.-THE triumphs of our fleets in the
late war and the experience of the ma
val reserves said Capt. John T. Ly
ons, a retired naval officer to a writer
of the Washington post the other
night, ''haye done great deal TO eIe
vate the personnel of the enlisted men
of the navy. The boys of good fami-
lies and of good education are enter
ing the navy, and it will no longer be
said that all sailors are toughs. His
service makes him high-class ma
chinist, and when discharged he has a
trade which he can follow with honor
and profit. 1t was not very many
years ago that our navy was made up
mostly Of foreigners, but SO per cent.
or more of the present force Of enlist
ed men are native-born Americans.
was speaking to IA officer of the
training station at Newport the other
day, and he told me that there had
been most remarkable improvement
in the intelligence and social standing
of their recruits. When the war be-
gan we had only 1000 men in the
navy. Now it numbers almost 81, 900
but we will never reduce the figure
lower than r. 900 again, and we have
fine lot of men to pick those 1000
from. We are going to have the fin
est navy in the world some Of these
days"

they are not afraid of the contest.

The arrangements have all been
made for the trip to Clarksburg to
morrow. The team and the rooters
will leave here at noon. They will
get a special at Fairmont and ar.
rive in Clarksburg at two IN the af-
ternoon. They will return sometime
that night
The team will be in poor condition
but they will win the game They
beat Marietta and several hundred
people when they were as badly used
up and will do the trick again when
they are in the same shape. Clarks-
burg is making great preparations
to show the boys good time and
they will enjoy the trip immensely.
A large crowd of people will go to
see the contest This will be com
posed in great measure of town peo-
pie who will by this means put the
students to blush. Never in the
history of the school has college
spirit been solow,or the boys so lack.
ing in enthusiasm.

In Memory.
Remember the Name and the bold gall
liant crew

Remember the Name and the bold gall
liant crew
Those near ones we'll ne 'er see again
They sleep their long sleep meath the
ocean blue,
Remember the Maine
Long years ago in tender embrace,
Fond mothers clasped in their bosom
each face,
Their footsteps were guarded, each path
was made plain.
They heard no sad cry Remember
the Maine.
But there came call from country, so
dear;
And the response came without doubt
or fear;
And good byes were spoken to loved
ones ut home.
Then soon they were speeding through
the oceans foam.
Did they think as they landed on Cuba s
fair shore,
That wives, sweethearts and mothers,
they meier would see more2
That by treacherous Spain, they were
soon to be slain?
Did no voice whisper, Remember
the Maine ?''
Brave gallant soldiers to your country
true;
Sleep, sweetly sleep, meath the
oceans blue
The waves sing thy requiem as they toss
to and fro,
And the nation is mourning in anguish
and woe
And mothers be silent in your anguish
and pain
Our country is Weakened. Well re-
member the Maine.p
From mountain and valley, from hill
and from plain,
Our loved ones are going to "Remem
Der the Maine
And we weep as they leave us and long
for the day,
When sorrows and tears shall all pass
away
When the song. sung by angels on Beth
ehem palm,
Shall echo in answer to, Remember
the Maine"
When cruel war with its horrors will
cease,
And men live as brothers in love and
in peace
When we clasp to our bosoms our dear
friends again,
Until that day Well Remember the
Maine
MRs. S. @. EvERLEY.

Spanish bullets, or succumbed to the

The poll of the counties above is
very fair, and in many places Nc
GraW's strength is probably underes-
timated. For this reason your CORE

Dayton is defeated
In Barbour county most of the
Democrats place MeGraw's majority
at 125 or 150, and the most conserva-
tive claim 100. A few Republicans
claim the Democratic majority will
be 80. It is placed in this table at
268, figure named by prominent
Republican interested in the poll.
Some Republicans make Dayton's
majority in Berkeley only so, instead
of 100
Both Democrats and Republicans

Republican estimates OF Randolph

Republicans claim 400 ii Taylor, but
will be lucky to get thd PCS here al
lowed.
The estimate for Marion gives Nc
Graw 10S majority. Prominent Dem
ocrats claim even more than this, and
some estimates give the Taylor coun-
tY man as much as 200. These gem
tlemen however, count too much on
the disatfection owing to Dayton's
unpopularity- His county poll has
