ry Butler, former resident of Terra
Alta, died at Fayette City, Pa, Fri
day, April 20, 1900, of brain fever. His
sickness was caused by a brake
chain breaking which threw him from
the car to the track where he struck
his head. He was quite well known
in Terra Alta having lived here for a
number of years. The body was
brought here Saturday for burial and
interment was made Sunday at

The ancients believed that rheuma-
tism was the work of demon within
a man. Any one who has had an at
tack of sciatic or inflammatory rheu-
matism will agree that the infiiction
is demoniac enough to warrant the
belief 1t has never been claimed
that Chamberlain Pain Balm would
cast out demons, but it will cure rheu-
matism, and hundreds bear testimony
to the truth of this statement. One
application relieves the pain, and this
quick relief which it affords is alone
worth many times its cost. For sale by

A few years ago great deal of in
genuity was wasted in fooling people
into reading advertisements. The
commonest plan was to devise a news
paper article which, beginning as a
thrilling story, ended as fiat adver-
tisement. Few people, however, read
beyond the point where the adver-
tisement proper commenced. This
method of obtaining readers soon fell
into desuetude, and the ingenious ad-
vertiser now prints only the adver-
tisement; but he makes the ''ad'' SO
interesting that everybody wants to
read it,

For the past few days the sun has
been almost obscured owing to the
vast smoke rising from numerous
forest fires in the mountains along
the West Virginia Central Railway
on the east and along Cheat Noun
tain on the west.
In the vicinity of Bayard fires are
raging in every direction. A mile of
the Rumbarger Lumber Company's
railroad near Dobbin has been
burned.
Down at Brew's mill men have been
fighting the flames for several days
and it was only by hard work that
the mill and buildings were saved.
Word from Kingwood last night
was that the fires had burned over
5000 acres of valuable timber land in
that neighborhood. One school
house and barn were destroyed and
two horses cremated.

w. H. White of Fargo, returning
from a trip to Puerto Rico, in an inter-
view says with regard to matters Of
Interest there:
I'VE stopped at Puerto Rico the
night before Secretary Root arrived
and we were there when the natives
learned that they we're not to have
free trade but I think they will be sat
sisfed withsth fifteen per cent. It is
not the small farmer or sugar planter
that would complain but the middle
man of whom most all are Spaniards
that want free trade. i really believe
that they should have free trade but
they should not be given the right of
suffrage. I predict that as o as
we give Puerto Rico free trade all the
other principal islands will clamor for
admission to the United States. Sugar
there is similar to our wheat, as to
market and as to a medium of ex-
not needed. The natives are tickled
with our government but are intensely
surprised because they can trace no
system of stealing or a hand in the
same-then they are made to keep
themselves duQ uUIutS dnu p1SulIoSS
and streets clean--and this they think
is a funny thing for a government to
enforce. In Santiago they have cleaned
out all the accumulated debris Of years
and laid miles and miles of asphalt
paving and I believe the city today is
as healthy as in Washington. Al
though we hear very little Of them,
San Domingo and Hayti are very i'm
portant. But the latter island is ruled
entirely by negroes, and understand
that white man may not establish
himself there. They are superstitfous,
their religion being Voodoism They
sacrifice infants to their god by placing
the little %innocents on the top of a
volcano. Their government is nat
urally retrogressive and the white man
will have to take a hand there before
the best results are obtained. The
stories we hear of the discomfort
among The natives in the islands ln-
der the control Of our government are
not to be credited.
