THE HOSPITAL BOARD
At Weston r eady to Transact Business
The Candidates.

WESTON, w. Va, January 5-The
various committees composed Of the

ed upon two other members of the
board who were present to verify this
statement, that ''the Board as a whole

the excellent condition, and the order
and good management that pre-
vailed"
The following applications for the

DR.. W. S. Jones, OF Warrington: Dr.

ture.

The FORTNIGHTLY.
Regular Meeting Held Last night
at School of Music.
Robert Browning the Subject OF Dis
custom Main Paper BY Prof. Rob-
crt A. Armstrong Discussion by Il
Number OF these Present. Very
Successful Meeting.

In spite OF the inelement weather
fair sized audience assembled last
evening at the School OF Music TO lis
ten to Professor Armstrong; paper
on "Browning's View OF Life. The
paper was a scholarly one and showed
the able treatment aud the familiari-
ty with the subject matter that we
are accustomed TO expect from Pro-
fessor Armstrong.
After some general remarks on the
mission of poets and the value of their
work, Professor Armstrong discussed
at length the fundamental principles
in Bfownings view of life. Two
points especially were elaborated: first
the problem of evil; second. the ques :
ton of Immortality, for these two
subjects are the golden thread running
through all Browning's works they
are the themes that occupied his
mind during the whole period of his
literary activsty.
In the general discussion which fol-
lowed the reading of the paper the
question was debated, whether any
poet has the right to so express his
thoughts that they cannot be readily
understood W educated, intelligent
people. Browning has been criticised
for this fault more than any other
poet of the century and he has even
been accused OF having Intentionally
obscured the meaning of his poems.
On this point Browning's own state
ment is of value. He saws. 81 have
not written for those who read for
pastime-yet / have never been will
fully obscure. | have failed to reach
the hearts Of many men TO whom |
would gladly have conveyed mess
age.
When the discussion closed the
opinion seemed to be gaining ground
that those who criticise Browning
most are those who have read him
least and that the great truths in his
poems can be enjoyed only after dill
gent study.

ANOTHER COLOR.
People Who Howl Over Our Loss Of a
Glass Plant do not Work Very Hard
to Get one that Wants to Come Here.

Point Marion is on big boom due
to the location of the new glass fac
tory down there. When this factory
went to that place there was howl
from number of people in Morgan
town. They said that it should have
been brought here and were inclined
to make uncompiimentary remarks
about the people who were supposed
to have influenced the removal.
Recently there was similar prop
osition from plate glass factory to
come TO Morgantown but the people
who were complaining SO loudly over
not being afforded a chance to get the
Point Marion factory have not yet
thawed out to any alarming extent.
1t is generally very much easier to
growl over what some one does than
1t is to do better yourself. Those
who have been kicking over the lost
opportunity which has proven so val
liable to Point Marion will do well to
get together and try to get the fac
tory that wants to come here to locate.

Not a Leap Year.

Let it not be forgotten that there
is no 10Th OF February this year. Ac-
cording to the ordinary calculation,
this would be leap year, but the sci
entists whose self imposed duty it is
to make the calendar year keep in har-
mony with the solar year have drop
ped the extra day this time. So there
will be no formal license for maidens
and widows to ''pop the question" in
1900, and timid lovers must do their
own proposing, unless they are willing
to wait until 1904.

Special Order For To-day.

WESTON, w. Va, January 6.-The
routine business before the hospital
board at this sessions has been exceed
ingly heavy. Col. Hugh Sterling was
appointed committee to look afterthe
insurance which expires April lst. The
purchase OF number Of sewing ma
chimes for the various wards was or
dered made. The motion Of election
Of new superintendent was made a
special for to-day. Upon this subject
the members Of the board are noncom-
initial. There is a prevailing idea,
however, that the matter will be Ia
bled, as there is division, and a
spirited and stubborn contest is looked
for.
