pet of the camp was injured, perhaps
dead.
The doctor, dark, thick-browed and
unshaven, proceeded with professional
instinct first of all to find a possible
pulsation. "Yes, there's life," he said,
''but dreadful little"
With q tenderness astonishing In so
burly a practitioner, the child was I'M
dressed without jolt, his hand dressed,
and directions given for the night. Then
the doctor went his way.
Several months previously consump-
tive looking man with sweet-faced boy
had Joined the miners company, but
only to die. He explsined briefly that
the boy was all he had in the world.
"Look cut for him, pards, ]" he said, 1.-The
little chap'n freeze TO you more lovingly
n any dog you ever saw" The man
put OUT within 48 hours, and little Joe
forthwith became the darling OF the
camp. When or where the little lad had
imbibed his ideas no. one knew or ever
Inquired. But his whole heart was as
full of Christ and all things heavenly az
though he had known personally the
Savior Of mankind.
Midst the tireless ministratIons that
followed it was difficult to tell whether
OF not partial consciousness had return
ed. Joe did not appear to suffer. and
hope was strong In the hearts OF the
men that eventually he would rally.
The doctor never encouraged it. The
boy had inhaled the fame. and his ma
turally weak heart was only struggling
on, perhaps to permit the utterance of
few parting words.
It was Christmas eve. The men were
disposed about the long room, in which
cheerful fire blazed briakly. Little
Joe's comfortable couch was against
the wall at one side, carefully screened
from the light. All at once, sweet, low
and tremulous, q note sounded through
the ungarnished place.
There is. a happy land
Instantly, one by ONE, the men tiptoed
TO the little couch. Their little lad was
awake, and smiled at the faces grouped
about. He repeated -
"There 10 q happy land, but 'tisn't
far away" he added, in weak, thin
voice. 81 never sing 1t that way. t
can't. | always sing it''-and the voice,
clear but thready, rose again -
There isa happy land.
Not. far Skxgav
The delicate little noaeeils Clilated with
the exertion OF singing, and Joe lay
quiet for minute. Then he asked sim

but such as related to the care OF the

Joe reposed on his own cot upstairs, as

An Honest Statement.

There is one thing in particular that
even the enemies of Hugh Gormley,
late Democratic candidate for State
Senator, give him credit for, and that
is his honesty.
His statement of expenses incurred
during the late campaign has been re-
ceived by Clerk Richards and the
amount and manner in which 1t was
spent are set forth in plain terms. 1t
is as follows:
paid to various persons at various
times for hotel bills, postage, livery
hire, railway fare, cigars and other re-
freshments, assessments to different
counties for the getting out of vote
and for work done on election day, the
sum total of nine hundred and twelve
and 72-100 dollars This includes ex-
penses incident to my nomination"
Nine hundred and twelve dollars and
seventy-two cents! 1t will take far
more than that to secure the election
of Democrat to the Senate from this
district. Hugh's honesty is equalled by
his earneslness in seeking after Sena-
torial honors.

The Meteors.

The search for the shower of Leon
ids began at the Gurley Observatory
Monday at IL a. m. From that hour
until a. m. thirty meteors were seen,
fifteen of which were Leonids. Tues
day morning the sky was so cloudy as
to completely hide the stars. Wednes-
day morning between the hour of two
and three-thirty the sky was perfectly
clear. Three cameras were directed to-
ward Leo, but no meteors were photo
graphed; however twenty-five were
seen and their paths located. Fifteen
of these were Leonids. Wednesday
night the sky was obscured by clouds
throughout the whole night Thurs
day night the watch began again at
midnight and notwithstanding the ex-
ceedingly brilliant moonlight, thirty
seven meteors We're seen, twenty-four
being Leonids, making a total of SO
meteors, 81 being Leonids. Compar-
ing these results with those obtained
at some of the larger observatories we
think we have reason to feel very well
satisfied with our work.

A Travelled Letter.

This is the story Of the travels and
vicissitudes OF letter:
1t was written July 81, last by Col
lector A. B. White, of this city, and
sent to Miss Peterson, of Charleston, by
mail. 1t was mailed by her in turn on
Aug. 2, to her father, Maj. ]. ]. Peter
son, who. as is well known, is in the
Philippines acting as official interpre-
ter to Gen. Otis.
The letter was sent via San Fran
cisco. 1t sailed from that port in COM
pany with other mail matter on the
transport Morgan City. That vessel
was wrecked off the coast of Japan in
september. The letter lay in the water
several days, was ultimately fished out
and forwarded to Maj. Peterson. That
official, thinking that the letter ought
to be allowed to complete its tour
around the world, remailed it to Mr..
White via Hong Kong and the Suez
Canal, and lie latter received it at
2:30 a. M, Nov. 16, after 1t had entire
ly clrcumnavigated the globe-water-
soiled and travel stained, but still leg
ible.
1t had made the round in just 10S
days-not quite such fast time as that
made by Jules kernes hero or Nellie
BLY,, but still pretty fair for letter
and with such tough luck in the way
Mr.. White will keep the letter as an
interesting relic.-Parkersburg Sentinel

Close to the Eve.

Mr.. w. P. Dye has had his eye band
aged for the past week as the result OF
an accident about week ago on the
Clark lease in the Chesterhill field
MIR. Dye was standing near the forge
when heavy bit standing near, fell
over and struck a poker which was
thrown upward and the point struck
Mr.. Dye just below the eye. 1t was
lucky for Mr.. Dye that the point struck
him as it did,as it would have destroy
ed his sight had it struck him in the
eye. AS it was, however, it inflicted a
very ugly wound.
