Yesterday being legal holiday.
school was closed, and everybody acted
according to their own sweet will.
The usual weekly Assembly was held
on Tuesday and proved to be one of
the most interesting gatherings Of
that nature we have had this school
year. It was certainly not as weak
as Ii might have been bv any means.
As befitting the occasion 1t was a
distinctly memorial service in COM
memoration Of Washington and Lin
coin. After song by the choir, Sc
lections from the lives and letters Of
these great men were read by Howard
Sherwin and L. v. Brown, which were
much appreciated.
Rev. II. III. Youngman was the
speaker of the day and it is unneces-
sary to add more. The students are
always delighted to see our portly
pastor on the platform, because they
know that treat is in store for them.
They were not disappointed, the ad-
dress was very fine and the earnest
ness with Shich IL was presented was
only exceeded by its length. This
was followed by violin solo by Mr..
Hustled. Miss McNamee gave a dec
lamation which was heartily ap-
plauded.

Their Friends.
The public schools Of this city gave
two very interesting entertainments
In the G. A. r. hall. Owing to the
fact that the hall was not half large
enough to accommodate all, on Mon
day evening the grown people were
privileged to attend and they crowded
the hall to overflowing. The program
rendered was one of the best ever ar
ranged by the school and gave entire
satisfaction. IL would be difficult to
say which pleased the most, recita-
tions, songs, drills or instrumental
music, and we cannot begin to tell al |
about 10, but will leave the reader to

moment for the parents, and the
teachers cannot help feeling well re-
paid for their efforts. The entire
program went Off without hitch. 1t
was intended for a Washington s
Birthday entertainment, and nearly
every number contributed something
to bring out the noble character of
the Father of His Country"
On Tuesday night the entertain
ment was repeated foi the express
purpose Of affording the children an
opportunity to attend, but we noticed
a large number of older people pres
ent, and again the building was
crowded to the very doors with hu-
manity. The second night was a
repetition of the first night and with
few exceptions it was up to the same
standard of excellence.
On every hand the remark was
heard, "Who could wish to attend a
better entertainment" 1t is to be
hoped that before the winter closes
the schools will favor us with another
evenings enjoyment.

He Got Them.

A local preacher out in Garrett

reluctant about putting anything in
to the collection basket, had an unus-
ually good collection the other night.
He had grown tired of pleading
with, his audience to open their hearts
explaining 10 them the blessedness of
giving. Some one had stolen hog
from one of the members, and before
passing the basket the preacher said
"Now | want everybody in this con-
gregation tonight TO contribute some
thing, excepting the man who stole
Deacon Jones hogg." The basket
then went around and no one failed to
give.

Assassin Shuns The World.

KoKoMo, Ind, Aug 25.-George
w. Scoyille, the lawyer who defended
Charles J. Guiteau in his trial for the
assassination of President Garfield,
has been discovered living in a cabin
near Mud Lake. From an affable and
influential lawyer Scoville has grown
into a morose and unapproachable
hermit.
He feels that he would still be shun-
ned by everybody for trying to save
Guiteau. The loss of his wife and
other misfortunes added to his melan-
choly and confirmed him in his deter
animation to abandon the world.

A LONG TRIP
To Be Taken By Young Parkersbnrg-

Word has been received from
Lieut.. Bernie Camden, of the Il s.
Revenue Cutter, Nunivak, from st.
Michaels, that he has received or
ders to take out IA party from the
crew of the boat and completely ex-
plore and make survey of the
koyukuk river, one OF the northern
tributaries of the Yukon. The river
flows through one of the widest por
tions Of Alaska and has never been
explored The work will include
elaborate reports on vegetation, an
imals found, mineral deposits, etc.
The trip will take several months
and it is not probable that the work
can be finished this year as the riv
er will freeze and largely interfere
with travel.
When Lieut.. Camden's letter was
written the Nunivak was Just coal
ing preparatory to starting up the
Yukon river.

amined With Interest.
The bones Of large reptile recent
ly discovered by Prof Brown on Freeze
out mountain. Wyoming, have ar
rived and are now to be seen in the
geological rooms of the University
They are 20 ia number l3 of these
having belonged to one individual.
The yertebrae are from 30 to 30 inches
in circumference. The femur or thigh
bone is over yard in circumference.
Its tracks occupied not less than a
square yard.
Brontosaurus was about 10 feet
high 60 feet long and weighed about
20 tons.
But one complete skeleton Of this
extinct monster has ever been found
by naturalists and it was not com
pleted until 1896. 1t has only been
ten years since the discovery of the
bones Of such an animal and it has
been d source of much study for scien-
tiflc men Prof. Brown found this
on his recent.trip to the far West with
the party Of scientists who went at
the invitation of the Union Pacific
Railroad to investigate the Laramie
beds in Wyoming. The find is a very
valuable one and it would be we'll
worth the trouble to have Prof. Brown
spend a summer in attempting to find
more of the skeleton.
A party from the Carnegie museum
IN Pittsburg has been there for sever
al months and parties Of men from
Universities elsewhere have been
there all summer.

the Work so Far.
Grafton Leader.
The forty-fifth annual Conference
of the Methodist Protestant church of
this state Is now in session in our city
holding forth in the beautiful Nj. E.
church on st. John street. The Con-
ference commenced its labors Wednes-
day morning, though on Tuesday
night devotional exercises were con-
Quoted in the church by Rev. [. A.
Barnes OF Morgantown, who formerly
oecepied this pulpit. A large congre-
CATION OF ministers, lay delegates and
friends and members Of the church
took part in the exercises. After OPP
ening the meeting with the usual SER
vice on Wednesday morning the Con-
ference proceeded to business. The
standing committees were selected
and put To work. A message OF SYM
pathy to Rev. G.. NJ. Wade, of Tyrcon-
nell, who is lying at the point OF
death, was spread upon the records
and sent to the afflicted clergyman.
The question rs To whether or not
the President Of the Conference should
travel over the state all the time,
looking sitter the various charges, was
taken up and disposed Of after an in-
teresting discussion. A large per-
centage of those entitled TO vote. de-
cided that he should travel during the
year. The salary of the President
was set at 81 900. The election OF Of
fieefs was next disposed Of. and like
all other questions involving the right
TO the honor OF an Office, was matter
of considerable interest. Rev. NJ. ID.
Helmick was chosen President; Rev.
George r. Brown, Sec; Rev. NJ. L.
Smith, Conference Steward; Rev. G.
l.. Queen, Statistical Secretary.
Wednesday night Rev NJ l.. Jen-
nings, ID. D., Editor OF the Methodist
Recorder, Pittsburg. delivered an able
address on educational work among
the ministers, and the good of relig-
ious publications in the hands Of the
layity. DR. Jennings is one of the
ablest men In America and his address
was matter of extraordinary interest
10 the members OF the Conference.
The most important committee OF the
Conference was then selected, the
Stationing committee. In the hands
Of this COMMITTEE is the fate OF many
aspiring ministers, as III has the power
to send them wheresoever it may
choose. 1t is composed of Rev. ID. G.
Helmick, Congressman Romeo II.
Freer, John Linn, Rev. A.. l.. Nc
Keever and Rev. /. A. Barnes.
There are 80 ministers and so lay
delegates in attendance, with others
yet TO arrive, which fact evidences
the great strength of that growing de-
nomination in the State.
