times of state Importance to be cele

the 1lth to the 18th of October and
will attract many strangers to the
town. This meeting time and place
was selected last year at the annual
meeting.
The announcement of the meeting
was made sometime ago but it has
been over looked by the majority OF
the people who are not directly engag.
ed 10 church work but they will be
very glad to know that it is to take
place in this place. Morgantown In
the past few years has been entertain
ing more than her share ofstate meets
and she has done it in a way that has
added wonderfully to her reputation
as a hospitable city.
This fall we get the meeting of the
Juniors. Chadwick Day and the meet
ing of the State Baptists. Each of
these events is a notable one and the
the people of the town will see to II
that the visitors on each occasion are
taken care of in such way that they
will go away with praises Of the town
on their lips.
Many of the most prominent men
in the denomination will be here to
attend the church meet and the atten-
dance will be very large. Several
hundred people usually attending the
sessions of the association and they
will have no reason for remaining
away this fall.
The sessions will be held in the
Baptist church on Main street. This
is one of the handsomest little church
es in the state and the visitors will
be delighted with it.
The Baptist church is one of the
strongest organizations in the state
and it will send many representati
to this meeting. Everyone will have
enough welcome saved over from
Chadwick Day and the meeting of the
Juniors to insure that the church peo-
pie have warm reception when they
begin to arrive.

A gentleman who was interviewed
in relation to farming, said among
other things: But the farmer to
make money must study economy,
must make two blades of grass grow
where one grew before. Under pros
porous conditions money can be
made at farming, especially with
real estate at present prices. 1t
should be remembered, too, that all
crops are not low in price the SAME
year. There is great chance fol-
thought and study on the sub
ject of mixed farming, what crops to
raise and also when to sell and
when to hold. 1t is the same in
farming as in anything else. Unless
you put your whole time and mind
into your business you will have tc
remain at the foot of the ladder"

Still More Counterfeiting.

The Secret Service has just unearth-
ed another band Of counterfeiters in a
suburb of New York City, and secured
a large quantity of bogus SIS bills,
which are so cleverly executed that
the average person would never sus-
pect them Of being spurious. Things
of great value are always selected by
counterfeiters for imitation, notably
the celebrated Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which has many imitators
but no equals for common disorders
like fever, ague, malaria, indigestion,
dyspepsia, constipation, nervousness
and general debility. The Bitters set
things right in the stomach, and when
the stomach Is in good working order
it makes good blood and plenty of it.
In this manner the Bitters get at the
seat of strength and vitality, and re-
store vigor to the weak and debilita-
ted Beware of counterfeits when

OLD ADAGE
That Talk is Cheap Is Not True When
the Talking is over Tele-
phone.

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-The most
costly long distance telephone CONVEX
sation ever held was recorded by the
Bell Company last week. The man
at this end is resident Of Brooklyn.
His talk was with a friend in St.
Louis. When they were through they
had to pay for fifty hours of service
and the bill was SO, According
to the telephone company the bill was
paid without a murmur.
The rate to St. Louis is $40 by day
and SO by night for five minutes and
50 by day and 81 by night for each
minute Of additional time. They
talked ten hours a night for five
nights.
Every precaution was taken in the
office of the telephone company to
protect the takers from interruption.
No one was allowed to break in on
the wire, and at each end of the line
where the plug was inserted in the
switchboard a card was hung up warn
ing operators to keep Off.

The first chance that the voters
have had to express their sentiments
upon the Presidents imperialistic
policy, was in the election of sue
cessor to the late Congressman
Bland in the Eighth Missouri dis
trict. The Democratic platform de-
clared in favor of immediate with
drawal from the Philippines, the
Republican candidate said the Pres
dents course was all right. The
election resulted in an increased ma
jority for the Democrats, in spite OF
the fact that the populists put up
an independent ticket.

desire to kiss him. She was elderly

that IL she had been younger and

Testimony in the Case-Has Attract
ed Tremendous Interest-Summary
OF What has Been Done from Day to
Day-Parties Well Known Here.

UNIoNrowN, Pa, Sept. 5.-All of
the day was occupied in court to-day
selecting jury to try William G..
Mccormick for the murder of Mrs
Minerva Monaghan, and just before
adjouoning this evening the II men
were finally seated in the box, 10
having been added to the two Sc
cured yesterday The closest at
tention was paid to the work by
both sides, and the jurors were piled
with questions as to their acquain-
lance and BUSINESS or other relations
with the defendant or his brother,
Sheriff George A. Mccormick. They
were also closely examined as to at
tenn pts to influence their verdict in
case they were chosen to try the
case, but nothing of startling ma
ture was developed.
Patrick Locke, who lives in the
Fourth ward, close to the scene of
the tragedy, asked to be excused
from service on the case. He said
he was intimately acquainted with
all the parties in the case and it
would be very embarrassing for him
to sit in judgment on the tragedy.
Judge Reppert granted his requesG.
Following is the jury as finally COM
pleted. Samuel L. Baker, laborer,
Brownsville, Frank Gabler, laborer,
Brownsville, Solomon Meese, miner

was accepted. The selection OF this
jury took the longest time in the his
tory of the country.

examined. The same curious crowd
