Revival Notes.

The lecture room of the Methodist
Episcopal church was full of auditors
last night. The pastor preached from
the words "Behold DOW is the accept
ed time, behold now is the day of Sal
yation.n He spoke of the chief mis-
sion Of an individual life, the attain
ment of personal salvation through
Christ. The sublimity of present OPP
portunities may be conspicuouslY seen
when we remember that Gods offers
are all in the present tense and are
conditioned on immediate acceptance.
Divine mercy is not promised to-mor-
row. The offices of the Holy Spirit
are not pledged for next summer. The
majesty and importance of the work
of obtaining purity of heart and peace
with God may never impress us so
profoundly as tonight. Habits of
sin and moral apathy normally in
tensify in power rather than decrease
in strength. Daily illustrations pub
lish the uncertainty of life and oppor-
tunities. Mac Ian delayed day too
long in his submission to his king and
paid for it with his ruin. Temporal
and external interests emphasize the
mono-syllabie of the text NOW"
The services were solemn and i'm
pressive, and will be continued each
night.

SOME WAR NOTES.
Week OF Prayer 0bseryed-Coi. Smiths
Christmas Dinner-New Record
for Paymasters.

The week of prayer was observed at
Camp Conrad by services conducted
in the chapel tent Of the First West
Virginia, by Chaplain Arbuthnot, and
the chaplain of the l60th Indiana and
the Third Kentucky. The men from
Indiana and Kentucky were allowed
TO pass over the guard lines of the
First West Virginia for the purpose
of attending the services.
Col. G. L. Smith, in his last letter
to the Faigmont Index. says: Christ
mas at Camp Conrad was celebrated,
but not In the good old fashioned way.
Not stocking was hung up. and
nearly every man received some token
of remembrance from absent friends.
An extra dinner was served in each
mess, in which turkeys and pork pre-
dominated, but egg-nog and the old
Virginia apple toddy were conspicu-
Gus by their absence. Firecrackers
were in abundance, but by a strict en-
forcement of orders thescamp was not
disturbed to any extent.
Major w. j. w. Cowden, paymaster
appointed from West Virginia in the

of Georgia give the palm to the

pertinent and general efficiency, and
that no regiment holds dearer spot
in the hearts Of the Georgia people.

regiments in sixteen days, record in

NO REsPECTOR OF PERSONS.
Grip victims, owing to weather, have
but little encouragement.

Grip and its kindred form, pneu-
monia, is no respector of persons, and
during the past month has carried
away many persons In this as well as
other sections OF the State who were
high in business and social life.
The weather Of the past few weeks
is viewed by the physicians as very
alarming, and there is but very little
encouragement for grip victims. In
some instances whole families are

WILL CUT IT.
The old way of dealing with
Gordiap Knots may be
followed


! Fleming Senator-Will get some
votes from each side-Many republic
cans would rather see him elected
than any et their men-McGraw cant
land all the democrats--A peculiar
situation may come to pass.
Ex-Governor A B. Fleming may
be the solution OF the senatorial
muddle and the chances are that he
may go to the senate with the votes
OF some democrats combined with
those OF some republicans. He has
] not openly announced himself as a
candidate buthe has gone to Charles
ton to look after the legislature and
if he thinks that the time is ripe he
will come out
1 He told several friends in Fair.
mont of his intentions before he left
there and they profess to think that
he has almost shown his hand in the
caucus nominations. The McGraw
forces were hard at work and had
set up the pins for the men they
wanted in the various offices. How
ever when the caucus voted only one
of these, O. S. Mckinney Of Mar
ion, was chosen. or course McKin,
ney was satisfactory to the Fleming
forces. This is said to be the rea.
son that he was the only one taken
while the others were left.
Fleming is very strong with the
party and he can probably get them
together better than any other man
At the same time he can capture
some votes from the republican side.
There are men on that side who
would rather see him go to the sen
ate than any republican who has
been mentioned. They will give
him their votes after the deadlock
has continued for some time. Nc
Graw has opposition in the party
while it has been quiet it has been
powerful and he cannot land all the
votes in the patty. This being the
case he will have to pull out as he
can get no republican votes.
This sounds very much like fairy
tale but it is vouched for by very
shrewd men and many republicans
in Morgantown think that stranger
things have happened. To see a
democrat take the election with some
republican votes to aid HIM will be
a peculiar occurrence but we may
see it before the legislature solves the
problem.

STANDARD OIL co. CASES.
Alleged Attempt to Bride the At
torney General of Ohio.

COLUMBUS (O.), April 15.-Attorney
General Monnett to-day filed with the
supreme Court information regarding
the attempt said to have been made to
bride him, and while he asks an order
from the court for an investigation of
the entire matter, he does not name the
man who made the alleged propositions
on behalf of the Standard Oil Com
pany.
In his information he says six at
tempts are said to have been made to
prloe former Attorney General D. X.
watson to drop the cases which were
pending. The first attempt was made
IN columbus by an alleged agent of the
standard Oil Company, who asked Hon.
). u Ryan to approach the Attorney
General and offer $4,000 in cash. which
Ryan refused to do. The second was
made in New York directly to Watson.
Inc third by a New Yorker involved
cash offer of 100000, In the fourth
attempt 100000 was again the amount
named. The fifth and sixth were
through Dewitt Jones of Columbus. who
was requested to offer the Attorney
General Federal mission or a Federal
Judgeship. Mr.. Jones refused to make
the offer. In these offers Mr.. Watson
was to resign.
Attorney General Monnett then told
Oh ms own case. He says that on jan
uary 10. 1899. he was called by tele-
phone from Cleveland, and was asked
10 GO nothing until the Cleveland man
saw him, and afterward he received the
same message by telegraph, while in

ecution OF the cases pending in court
against the company.
Inc Attorney General does not give
the name of the Cleveland man. but
asks the court to issue rule recurring

agents and officers to appear to show
