Returned home.

D. E. Allen, B. III. Corlew and
w. B. Bleakmore have returned
from a twelve days hunt in the
Comanche nation. The moon was
not right at the particular time of
their leaving and they returned
somewhat disappointed. They
were, however, rewarded by the
capture of one deer and few tur-
keys. The rain came down in tor
rents before their departure for
home and they were five days on
the road on their return.
One hunter remarked that the
report of game in that nation was
all farce, while another acknowl-
edged that there was plenty of
game. but that they were not pro-
fsssional sports and did Lot have
their work well in hand.

envelope filed with brown paper.
1t was the same old story. The
young man had been in correspondence
with the green goods people off and

TO exchange $3.50 for s., 800. Before he
came to Wheeling, however, one Of the
two swindlers who were engineering

virginia where the victim lives, and
arranged for the meeting here.
The swindlers. who are two well
dressed individuals who have been
stopping at the Hotel Windsor for
about week, met their victim and
accompanied him TO the hotel, and the
deal was talked about at some length
Finally, the mans $3.50 was placed in
an envelope, which the pair took

they handed back the enveIope Tor

keep his money until he and one OF the

was done. and the two went to the

SUBSCRIPTIONS PRICE.
rs IT EXPEDIENT?

The annual worry incident to the
demands of graduation from the
high school is taxing the energies
and stralning the financial resources
OF score of families, more or less,
in this city at the present time, and
OF a multitude throughout the
country. A bevy of young women
educated in the main without the
slightest reference to the reasonable
requirements Of their future lives,
daughters of work. a-day parents who
are straining every nerve to bring
up their children intelligently and to
provide for their bodily comfort, are
being bedecked for the graduating
occasion In a style that lays heavy
tribute upon The domestic purse, and
perhaps foredooms the rest of the
family from the father down to the
nursling (and certainly the self-sac-
rificing mother) to go shabbily clad
Tor half year.
This is one Of a number of ways
in which our grand system of CON-
mon school education has grown into
heavy tax upon its supposed or IN
tended beneiciaries. It will be said,
of course, that judlcious parents, who
cannot afford to spend from $25 to
$50 in this way, should be independ-
ent enough to refuse to comply with
the demand of custom and dress the
daughter for the occasion simply and
in accordance with their means.
But this is shallow, being wholly at
variance with human nature. Talk
as we may about independence, the
fact remains that this principle is
not ruling force in the domain of
fash;on-that, IN fact, it has seldom
been introduced therein, and never
except to be quickly frowned down
and out.
The very spirit that urges parents
who cannot afford to spend the sum
OF money required by the present
graduating custom to enter and keep
up with the grand educational pro-
cession, often at the cost of the most
pitiful and pinching economy in the
essentials of life, is the basis of the
high school structure. The idea is to
give the children of the poor the sad
vanta9es" Of a more or less ornate
education, equal in all respects to
those which the wealthy may buy for
their children; to bridge, so to speak,
the channel between two distinct
stations in life and merge them into
one.
Having been encouraged to do
this, is it reasonable to expect par
ents to fail at The last moment to
meet the requirements of the sltua-
ton? Is 1t any wonder that it is
decided in family council that Mat
tie, or Mamie, or Jennie, must have
an overdress of organdie and lace,
over white satin petticoat, though
mothers rusty serge must again be
darned and turned; that she must
have white kid slippers, though john
ny cannot go to Sunday school be-
cause he Is barefoot; that fathers
battered old hat will shave to do,''
bat "class PIN must be bought
These are homelv, commonplace
things, but they represent conditions
