Mr.. Rouss to Add TO His Store.

Visitors to New York have aften COM
mented upon the immense building of
granite and iron on Broadway monu-
ment tothegrit and will power of Charles
Broadway Rouss. This is undoubtedly
the largest building in New York occupied
entirely for the carrying on of one bust
ness. Notwithstanding this fact, how
ever, Mr.. Rouss some time ago realized
that the building was entirely too small,
that his business was increasing so rapid
ly he had to look for larger quarters.
Recently Mr.. Rouss purchased, at cost
of $500, 600. the large building adjoining
his store, and last Thursday plans were
filed with Building Commissioner Brady,
in New York City, by VIM. ]. Dielthy,
architect for Mr.. Rouss. for improvements
to cost 5000, 900 to the latter's stores at
SAG, 5sI, ss3 and SIS Broadway. The
interiors are to be enlarged and rear.
ranged, and the buildings will be made
twelve stories high, instead of ten, the
height of the old store.

Death of DR.. q. Is. MASON.

Just before going to press we learn of
the death of DIR. G. F. Mason. one of our
Oldest and most respected citizens. He
had been reasonably we'll since a severe
attack last fall, but confined to the house
by the winter weather. Sunday night
last he began to complain. Yesterday he
remained in bed all day and had DR..
Neill to visit him. During last night he
was taken worse, and died this morning
at 5;3o o'clock, in the eighty-fifth year of
his age. His mind continued clear until
the end, and he died quietly. without suf-
fer;ng, surrounded only by his family
and DR.. Neill He had practiced medi-
cine for great many years in this COM
munity. until the feebleness of advancing
years compelled him few years ago to
abandon practice. His health and vigor
were remarkable. His success in prac-
tice gave Kim much reputation, and his
great kindness and warmth of heart won
him many friends. who will sincerely
mourn his death.
Funeral arrangements have not vet
been concluded. but the interment. we
understand. will not take place until
Thursday.

Understanding.

AT 9 o'clock Wednesday evening Vim
ton. the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Francis
Jack Manning, near this place, was the
scene of a beautiful wedding, the occasion
being the marriage of their eldest daugh-
ter, Miss Alice Strother Manning. and
Mr.. Robert Earle Lee Pryor, of East
Bank. Kanawha county, w. Va. Bishop
WI. Gravatt, ofthe Protestant Episcopal
Church, performed the ceremony, which
took place in the large double parlors,
which had been deliberately decorated for
the occasion with ported plants and cut
flowers. Thesbridegroom was attended
by Mr.. Preston Smith, of Charleston. w.
Va, who acted as best man, and the maid
of homer was Miss Amelia Davenport
Manning, sister of the bride. She wore
white organdy, with a picture hat, and
carried carnations. The bridesmaids
were Miss Elizabeth Pryor, sister of the
groom; Misses Della and Antoinette Man
ming, sisters of the bride; Miss Willette
Eastman. of Harrisonburg. Va, and
Misses Grace and Jennie Lee Eddins, of
Baltimore.

Communicated.

Now that the time of our primary cleo.
tons are drawing nigh, think it would
be. well to give utterance to some wise
and timely words for members of all par
ties, as follows:
Too much attention cannot be given to
these meetings. They mean much TO,
the people and the parties. Good nomi.
nations will strengthen the parties, while
Indifferent or poor ones viii iniure them.
No incompetent or unfit man should be
placed on the ticket simply because he
wants place or has been good party
worker. Fitness and character SHOULD
be the first qualification. The demand OF
the times is for competent. honest and
good men for official places. The inter.
est of the community. as we'll as the wei.
fare of the parties. demand such-action
and the peopleaTe to blame if they dc
not get it. 1t should be the man, and not
the Office. S. ]. BOYD.

Great College Enterprise at Charles
Town.
Transactions have lately been made
which viii mean much for Charles Town
and community. 1t has for some time,
as announced in the Advocate, been the
desire. on the part of many of our cfti-
zens, to have at Charles Town college
of high grade for girls and young wo-
men. With this in view stock compa-
NY was formed and the magnificent prop
ertY known as Hotel Powhatan was pur-
chased. The stockholders at once placed
the work of organizing college in the
hands of a Board of Trustees consisting
of R. p. Chew. A. w. Mcdonald. G. r.
vending, r w. Alexander and L. Som
neborn. The first work of the Board was
to secure suitable man forthe presidency
and management of the institution. After
considerable negotiations ST. Hatton.
President of claremont College, Hickory.
N. c.. was invited here. After looking
over the field he was much pleased with
the outlook. accepted the presidency and
began at once to make arrangements to
open a school next September President
Hatton comes with the high est endorse
ments. Hesis5a graduate from MCGEE
College. and the University of Missouri,
and has had wide and successful expe-
rierce as a schoolman. having been atthe
head of some of the best colleges in the
East, South and West He bears the
reputation of being among thevery high
est and moss successful educators and
proposes to build up at Charles Town a
college for young women second to none
in the Virginias. The next work of the
Board of Trustees will be to make the
stock or shares in this college enterprise
not only safe investment but paying
one. 1t will be their object to distribute,
as widely as possible, over the county, the
shares. that the Institution and its great
work may be brought in direct touch
with the people of the town and county
whom it must necessarily serve and bene-
fit. On the whole this is an enterprise of
which our town. our county and our State
should justly feel proud. Then let all
who feel an interest in orr town and
county, who feel an interest in the great
cause of education of our young woman
hood, who feel an INTEREST," in the upbuild-
ing ofhumanity, encourage this enterprise
and bid it God speed.

The Democrats of Jefferson county
seem inclined to favor a compromise
ticket at their primary election the COM
ing summer between the old and new
shetiffalty elements of the party. 1t is
claimed that the gentlemen who have
had control of that Office in the county
for good many years should give way
to others just as worthy who have never
been connected with the office, but the
gentlemen who have had charge of the
Office have conducted the county affairs
in such a highly satisfactory manner to
the public, and have been so lenient and
kind to the people. and stand so high in
the public estimation that while some of
the best and most popular citizens of the
county have run against them they have
never been defeated. The primary is
usually holly contested and a compro-
mise might work to the advantage of the
party.-Martinsburg Statesman.
