ENDEAvORER's CONVENTION
Closed Very Successfully mt Bethany
Yesterday-The Next Convention
VIII BE Held at MoundsyiiIe.

The district convention of the Chris
tian Endeavorers, which was held this
week in Bethany, was one of the most
successful conventions ever held in the
Wheeling district. The meeting was a
success from the start and the interest
manifested by all the divisions re-
markable. The impetus given by this
great interest shown has given the
society much life and inspired the
workers. The excellent programme
provided for was carried out in full
and proved very interesting. This con-
vention has been of great benefit to
the society and il is expected that
from now on the Endeavorers will work
and secure many new members.
A large number from this city were
in attendance, including many minis
tiers. Yesterday was the last day OF
the meeting. The next annual conven-
ton will be held at Moundsville.

Rev. VIM. Lambert was born January
p, 1927, in Washington county. Pa,
and was therefore IS years of age.
His father, VIM. Lambert. came TO
America from County Wexford. Ire
land, in 1872, with his uncle, DR.. Lam
bert, second Bishop of St Johns, New
foundland. He was a schoolmate of
the late James G. Blaine, and at the
time of the controversy about the re-
ligion of Mr.. Blaine's parents, it was
stated that Father Lambert was con-
firmed in the same class with the boy
who afterward became one of the ma
tons most eminent statesmen.
When about fourteen years of age
William Lambert, Jr., was sent TO
Philadelphia to school. He was in the
seminary there when the native Amer
lean riots took place in 1874. The stu
dents were dispersed. He and a fellow
student, John Jennings, left the city
disguised as Quakers, and on foot.
When passing through a village not
far from the city they went into lit
tie church on the wayside, and there,
on his knees at the railing, they found
Bishop Kenrick, who had also left the
city. Jennings, the follow student.
gave up studying for the ministry and
became lawyer.
When the diocese of Pittsburg was
created Father Lambert was assign
to the diocese. Subsequently he spent
several years in Illinois, and finally
returned to make his permanent home
in West Virginia. Father Lambert
was spared to celebrate his golden
jubilee, the fiftieth anniversary OF his
ordination as Roman Catholic
priest, which took place on November
25th of last year, that event rounding
out life of zeal ana usefulness in
the cause to which he devoted all his
energies and talents.
Father Lambert was a deep scholar,
and an accomplished linguist. His
brother, Rev. l.. A. Lambert, is edi-
tor of the New York Freemans Jour
nal, and has distinguished himself by
his attacks upon Ingersoll and his
school of infidelity.
Father Lambert was in charge of
the mission churches along the b. &
o. road for some years, making his
home In Parkersburg. Later he was
appointed rector OF the Catholic
Church at Mason City. The death
will be deeply deplored by all who
know him. No definite arrangements
have yet been made for the funeral,
but It will probably take place Mon
day, and requiem mass will be cello
brated at St Joseph's Cathedral. A
large number Of visiting clergy will
be present.

An Unpardonnhle omission.

To the Editor of the Register
Sir:-In an editorial in the Intelli-
gencer of the Sd inst, on the death of
ex-senator Wiley, the writer states
that: With the passing away of ex-
Senator Foreman and Ex-Governor
Pierpont there was left but one man
who was prominent in the erection of
West Virginia into free and sovereign
State" From the foregoing it would
appear that the writer was not very
familiar with the early history of the
movement that resulted in the creation
OF the State Of West Virginia. mas
much as he failed to mention the
name Of A. w. Campbell, formerly the
editor of that paper. who is recognized
by all parties as one OF the most con-
spicuous promoters and actors in the
drama that resulted in the disruption
of the Old Dominion and the birth Of a
new Virginia.
As editor of the leading Republican
paper in the State, he wrote constant
", foTcefully and eloquently in behalf
OF a separation. and did as much if not
more than any one man to attain that
end. 1t, therefore, seems strange that
one who worked so increasingly with
such ability and integrity and without
desire for political preferment. should
be so soon forgot. x.

On Wednesday Jennie Howe, Of
North Wheeling, swore out warrant
against William Blinko, charging him
with assault and battery. The papers
were issued, but Blinko could not be
found. w. w. Echols, of the Humane
Society, then swore out warrants
against Blinko and a woman named
Pearl Wiley, of the North End, charg-
ing them with adultery and fornica-
ton. The Wiley woman was arrest
ed on that warrant Wednesday night
and committed to Jail in default of
bond for a hearing. The case came
up in the office of the Jail yesterday
morning. Attorneys Robinson and
Sawtelle appeared for the defense
and Attorney Dobbs for the State.
The attorneys for the defense de-
manded trial by jury. A number
of witnesses were examined upon both
sides, Miss Howe being the only
one that swore positively to the
CIdi &c. uSl Z W do liOL Sf luCACC
to sustain it, The jury arrived
at an unanimous verdict of acquittal
without even examining the instruc-
tons. Mr.. Echols was not put on the
stand.
The Howe woman Immediately
went to the Office of Justice D. q.
Phillips and swore out a warrant
against Miss Wiley, charging her with
a breach of the peace Miss Wiley
was arrested and taken before Justice
Phillips. Attorney Robinson was
called and he was in turn called into
consultation with Mr.. Echols and
Miss Howe. Miss Howe stated that
she had no grievance against Miss
Wiley but that it was at the instiga-
ton of Mr.. Echols that she made the
complaint. She also stated that Miss
Wiley had never threatened her. The
warrant was withdrawn.
Miss Howe then made affidavit be-
fore Notary Sawtelle that she would
not have brought any ac.lon against
Miss Wiley if she had not been told
to do SO by Humane officer Echols.
Proceedings for damages may result.
