this number 6,312, 73l were sent ia

FIGHTING BOB EVANS.
A Naval Captains Experience in a
Strange Church.

Fighting Bob Evans, dressed in
citizens clothes, went to church on
a Sunday not long ago. Upon en-
tering the house of worship he seat
ed himself in vacant pew about
midway up The aisle. Soon after
wards gentleman and lady walk
ed in and seated themselves in the
same pew. The gentleman looked
ugly at Bob and the lady partly
turned her back on him. The gen
tleman stood it as long as he could
and then passed a card over to Bob,
which read as follows: Il pay 3d.
500 annually for this pew" Bob
glanced at the card and then passed
it back with the following written
on the other side: You pay too
damned much The preacher then
announced his text: Its Blessed

Be Patient With the Little Folks.

As school days are close at hand,
we want to make a request for pa
tience-patienc on the part of the
mothers who will soon be settling
their little brood in school again, and
who will probably wonder what ails
Jack or Sue when they come home
fretful and peeyish, ready to turn the
house upside down and evincing many
little forms Of temper that have been
hidden during the long vacation
months. Remember that the first
few days at school to the active boy
and girl are what the cage is to the
bird, which has scared aloft unfetter-
ed and happy, the great wide expanse
OF earth and sky its own particular
domain, until suddenly it finds itself
within the narrow confines Of wire
bars, with limited peep at sea and
sky TO replace the gigantic panorama
owned by it before. The rules of the
school room, the getting down to the
regular routine, the endeayor to ac
custom active, healthy little bodies to
the necessary decorum of educational
discipline CRATE on childish nerves and
childish tempers so that it Is no won
der that they are little fractions
when they reach home those first days
before they have once more grown ac-
fcustomed to the yoke. Take this in
to consideration, we mothers of frac-
tious little people, and think back on
your own girlhood, when you, too,
hated to begin work after play as
much as they do.

N Camden, who has organized a syn

the Fairmont region, not already held

are watched with interest. The Davis
Coal & Coke Company has prepared to
erect a battery OF so new coke ovens
in Randolph county. where new OPP
ening has been made. About 1900
miners in the Elkhorn and Flat Top
regions have received an advance OF
10 per cent for mining. The Davis

week ending August 18th, 1854 tons
of coke over the b. & O. aud 944 tons

FRANCE is QUIET,

No Serious Disorder Occurs a Resu of
the Verdict in the Dreyfus Case.
PARIS, Sept. 1.-THE day has been
one OF absolute quiet, with no public
excitement, not even in the Rue de
Chabrot. There was rainfall during
the afternoon and the streets were
practically deserted.
Slight disturbances occurred Satur-
day at Marseilles and Belfort. when the
verdict of the Dreyfus courtmartial
was published. The demonstrators
stoned the residence of Jacques Drey-
fus, brother Of the condemned, at Bel
fort, breaking the windows and other
wise damaging the structure. Many
persons We're arrested in both places.
The premier, M. Waldeck-Rosseau,
was visited during the morning by
most Of his colleagues. The date Of the
next cabinet council has not yet been
fixed. President Loubet will probably
not return to Ramboulett for several
days.
So far as can be ascertained military
men are perfectly satisfied with the ver-
dict which they interpret a. safeguard
ing the honor of the army and at the
same time doing an act of mercy to
Dreyfus, who, they say. has sufficiently
expiated his crime in the awful exist
ence he passed on Devils island. They
point out that even if he is sent to Fort
Corte, it will be to receive henceforth
the humane treatment ne has expe-
rienced since his return to France.
