WHERE MAS MOSES?

IeopR tot wen Acquainted Talks
by The Ministers Interrupted Pleas
ant Affair Otherwise.
Last saturday night the members Of
the Y. NJ. G. A., of the University
gave reception in honor of the new
students. Ii was given in the spa
cious Gymnasium and great crowd
of students, instructors and friends
We're present. Every thing started Off
auspiciously. The reception COM
mittee Introduced the new students
TO President and Mrs. Raymond, Mrs.
Sturgiss and the others In the line,
and at the proper time Mr.. w. w.
Smith, President of the Y. Nj. 9. A.,
asked the crowd TO be still while an
informal programme was given. An
interesting two.minute talk by Rev.
DR.. Buchanan opened the programme
and then Miss. Sitter delighted every
body with a violin solo. She was
greeted with the most cordial applause
and second number by her was de-
manded but the programme was gone
on with.
Rev. Mr. Barnes spoke entertain
ingly for couple OF minutes and
then the electric lights went out
They stayed out too for an hour or 50.
The town plant has been in abomina-
BILE order for some time and the
lights have been going out nearly
every night. 1t was impossible to do
much more with the programme
though the Mems Glee Club rendered
an excellent number or two under
great difficulties. Fortunately there
was gas jet or two In one end OF the
gymnasium which kept the crowd
from being in utter darkness.
The other ministers Of the town
were to have added their words OF
welcome to the new students and
there were other excellent numbers on
the programme but they could not be
given. Refreshments were served as
we'll as possible under the circum-
stances.
II the lights had not gone out the
affair would have been great sue
cess.

The naval officers left Washington
to-day and will be here sometime
early tomorrow morning They will
be met at the depot and escorted up
town by the University Cadet Corps
which will fire an Admiral's salute
in honor Of Admiral Sampson.
None of the plans have miscarried
very far and every effort that has
been made to do anything has been
crowned with success. It only re-
mains for the weather to give us it's
cooperation and we will have the
biggest day that we have ever had
The program contemplates a con
tinuous session from the start OF the
parade until after the sword is pre-.
sented. The house wives of town
will have to have dinner before noon
or they will have to have it after
given about eleven o'clock it will let
people out to see about everything
that is going on.
The sword presentation will take
place from the stand in trout of the
Court House and the parade will be
reviewed from this point also The
exercises of the presentation will be
attended by an immense crowd and
even standing room will be at pre-
MUM unless it is raining and even
then there will be lots of people out
to see it. The first thing of interest
after the arrival Of the distinguished
guests in the persons OF Governor
Atkinson and the naval officers par
ty will be the arrival of the special
trains with the excursionists They
will begin to come in about eight
thirty and will continue until eleven.
Several sections will be run in
from Fairmont and the Fairmont,
Piedmont and Terra Alta companies
with bands from a number of towns
will be in on that. Nearly every
body in Fairmont expects to here.
The Uniontown and Connellsville
companies will be here about nine
thirty They will be met at the de-
pot by everyone who can get down
there.
After their arrival the next thing
will be the formation OF the process
sion.
The parade is announced in the
official program to start at ten thir
ty 1t will hardly be able to get
started as soon as that but it will
not be very long afterwards before
it has begun the march around the
city. McKeesport company will be
the last In. 1t will come to Con-
nellsville on the regular accommo-
dation and will have special from
that place which will run right
through to Morgantown making no
stops and arriving here as soon as
possible.
The Connellsville and Uniontown
companies will be in on another
special arriving here about nine
thirty. They will have the cadet
rifles issued to them to be used dur
ing the parade and they will re-

Some of the new labor saving de-
vices are of the unexpected order.
Here. for instance. says London Tit
bits is the Grand Trunk Railway,
among other devices for reducing its
working expenses. doing its white
washing by steam. 1t has a regular
whitewash train-or rather two trains,
one for each division. The apparatus
consists essentially of an old engine
in which the boiler does duty as a re-
ceiver. Into this the whitewash is
sucked from barrels as required. and
there it is kept in agitation by a West
inghouse pump. From this it is eject
ed by another brake pump as a fine
spray. so that a man can lay the color
on as if he were watering a garden
with a hose. In this way he can white
wash two or tnree stations a day.

Devil W orsh u.

In Spain, Germany. France. Italy,
as well as in the northern countries
which had embraced the reformation,
devil worship was believed to be prac-
ticed, orgies celebrated, malevolent
tricks of revenge perpetrated by the
votaries of the evil one on their neigh
bors. If child was seized with ep-
ileptic fits of if a pig died suddenly,
if a toad were found under the bed
or cat jumped in at the window.
if a cross grained old woman cursed
a rude. ill mannered brat, and the child
afterward suffered with any complaint
the witchcraft which must undoubted-
ly be at the bottom of such occurrences
called for Immediate investigation.
Nor was it long before victim was
forthcoming. Denial was of no avail.
The longer such denial was persisted
in. the longer were the fortunes in
ficted. The accused was urged to con-
fess to the usual charges. and encour-
aged to accuse others. in turn to suffer
the same fate. And so the horrible
business spread. until. like prairie
fire. ii burned itself out for time. only
to start again from some fresh sparks
of suspicion. The crime itself was
held by all to be so enormous that no
punishment could be too great for it.

THE UNIUCkY DAYS.


be Feared
In ancient times the heather were
30 superstitious with regard to certain
days that they were pointed out in
their calendars with different colored
characters 10 mark the lucky ones and
| the unlucky. and all classes arranged
| the details of their daily life with
| reference to these marks
We of the present day claim to be
free from all this. but many there are
who viii not begin a journey nor q
piece OF work on Friday, nor cut the
hair In the last quarter of the moon.
and who are very much frightened if
the soft rays OF Luna chance TO fall
upon the face while they are asleep.
Friday is even under a ban: even
with regard TO the weather. there is
an old saying which declares that
Fridays moon.
Come when il will. comes too soon
In countries where capital punish
ment is in vogue Friday has nearly
always been '-hangman's day"
There are many superstirions con-
nected with New Years day; one that
is still firmly believed by many of
the devout is that of opening the Bible
at random and putting the finger on
any chapter contained in the two
open pages. II is believed that the
luck or unluck of the coming year will

Again, others believe that il is very
unlucky to take anything out of the
house on New Years morning before
taking something in: the old rhyme
which expresses this belief runs as
follows:
Take out. then take in,
Bad luck will begin:
Take in, then take out,
Good luck comes about
