i'r. Charles 4. Wade Dead.

The sudden death of DR.. Charles
A. Wade which occurred on Saturday
evening June 18th at about o'clock,
was shock from which the community
has not yet recovered. Few knew that
he was complaining and he had been
unwell for only three days. On We'd
neSday night he made professional
call at Granville about midnight and
on Thursday morning went to his
breakfast as usual but later in the
day spoke of being sick and of very
severe pains in his head He was
never out again but on Saturday
evening seemed better, when about
supper time he tainted and despite
every effort never rallied. His death
was from heart failure very much of
the character Of death from paralysis,
though from what cause the physi-
clans have been unable to determine.
DR.. Wade graduated from Jefferson
Medical College, Philadelphia, in
March 1895, and has for more than
two years past been practicing here
with Drs. Brock s. Wade He was
quite popular both as ii man and a
physician and was rapidly gaining the
confidence of every one. Many kind
words are heard of him on every hand.
He was 30 years of age on January
both last; April 22nd 1898 he was
married TO Miss May Lawhead. a
daughter of A. r. Lawhead, of South
Morgantown. who is one Of our best
known and most respected citizens.
DIR. Wade was the youngest son of
Prof. A. l. Wade one of the most
widely known citizens of the state,
and brother of Dr. S. S. Wade one
OF our leading physicians. The funer-
al will take place from the home Of
Prof. A. L. Wade in South Morgan
town on Wednesday afternoon.
Few deaths ever occurred here that
made a more profound impression
upon the community.
To the widow and the afflicted
family every one extends their sympa-
thy.

Mr.. Patton was well pleased with the
prospects of mineral found along the
line Of the prospective new railroad
of which there is an abundance OF
coal, limestone and fire clay. The
grade is very satisfactory and the
prospects for the road in the near
future are good. Those along the
line, if they care for this road, should
offer the company some inducements
in the matter Of right CT way. This
new road will connect with the B. &

MAY BE DIFFERENT
But this is the Song that the Exp0sitor
Sings About the Paving Brick.

Dan Morrow has been at Morgan
town with bid for furnishing the
brick for the street paving at that
place. There was but one lower bid
der, the local company down there,
and it has no plant to make the brick
but said that Ii 1t were to secure the
contract that 1T would put up plant
to turn out some sort of fire blocks
that would be acceptable for paving.
In this way the local company had
none of its product to show so that
the council might determine the diff
ference between its brick and that of
the company represented by Mr.. Nor
row. II the people there accept the
bid Of the local company they will
have no paving this year. They
would have to wait until the people
who are bidding would erect a plant,
and that would not be for months
and besides they would not know
what sort of brick the new company
would turn out. The council there
should know Of the reputation of Mr..
Morrow's glade brick. 1t took his
people years to make the brick of the
excellent quality they are now turn
ing cut, and in accepting the bid Of
the Morgantown people they would
have to accept inferior brick while
the experiments were In progress to
get the product up to the required or
desired quality. The difference in
price is but IS cents a thousand.
What they want to do down there is
take Glade brick and then they will
know what they are getting.

Unless Controyerted is very Strong
and will be very hard to PalIiate.
Camden Somers of the County
Mail has begun the publication of
evidence in the case of the forgeries
which are charged against Mrs. At
kinson. From the first letters sub
mitted there seems to be a very
strong case against the accused. She
may however be justified by eircum-
stances which are not given in the
article. One of the facts given Is
most convincing A series Of receipts
five in number which purport to ex-
tend over a series Of several years
are all torn from the same sheet of
note paper and the edges fit exactly
when they are placed together. 1t
is very doubtful indeed if sheet of
paper would be saved up and used
for giving receipts for that length of
time TO the same man.

have not been suspected as having
any connection with the case will be
exposed. The publication of the ev-
idence will be continued from week
to week until it is all published. The
series will be most interesting and
will be eagerly read
Should what he has published be
true and there seems to be no reason
to doubt it the criticisms which
have been made of his course do him
great injustice. OF course we all
feel inclined to the side of the WON
an in the case but if she is guilty
she should be made to suffer the
penalty for her misdeeds. Her sta
ton should not be made shield to
cover her wrong doing. That course
would be to place premium on
wrong doing and to invite
law breakers to still further
offences against society.
On the other hand il she is limo
cent she should welcome the chance
70 clear her name and to stand be-
fore the people of the state vindi-
Gated from the terrible charge which
at present stands against her. This
latter task will be a very hard one
from the evidence which has al
ready been adduced against her.

Our War Letters.

Scarcely anything is so interesting
in the newspapers to-day as the let
tiers that are being written from camp,
field and boat. Every paper one
takes up has an interesting letter
from some one away from that papers
locality, writing home Of things that
instruct, amuse, and surprise. These
letters are written with all the sim
plicity of the newcomer to this field
of experience, and run along in rich
vein of inquiry and observation that
tell the writers are using their time
well, keeping open both the eye and
the ear. This is good reading. 1t
brings us all into close relationship
with the events of the day. 1t broad
ems out our conception of the great
ness of our country 1t makes US all
one in the struggle going on, and it
develops on the part of those young
men the opportunity to make progress
for themselves. The letters that are
being written from the newspaper
dispatch boats are perhaps the most
unique pieces of work in that line that
this country has ever seen. They are
full and minute. Descriptions read
very realistic. They supplement the
kilograms, messages, and reports that
are being made to wonderful ex-
tent. They are real commentaries
on the text Of the official records.
They will be priced highly.
