to let the Club suffer again from my
absence. AS he made this rather
significant remark, he glanced at
Vice-President Woodbridge. The
latter, however, was busy figuring
up the value of Col. Green Champ
ln's new pearl and didn't see the
remark or hear the glance.
While the minutes were being
read, several members who came in

Among the new members were Coils.
Gus Breathitt, Dave Wiley, Sol

ler and John Prowse, who explain
ed that they had been detained to
learn the result of the Republican
primary election, in which some of
them felt an interest. 1t was noticed
that Col. Cansler was not laughing
when he came in.
Col. Breathitt, who happened to
be smoking green cigarette, was
called up to the Presidents desk
after he had paid the fines of all
the whole crowd in a burst of gen
erosity, and was given little lee

President Cooper, "that you are
taking your life in your own hands
by smoking that thing? Don't you
know that cigarettes are poisonous
aud that their sale has been for
hidden in Tennessee and Indiana,
and that a Wisconsin judge has de-
cided that cigarette smoking is a
good ground for divorce? Do you
think the invitation to the Chinese
Boxers to commit suicide was in

Col. Breathitt said quietly that
he had heard these things before,
but it was a well-known fact that
the poison in cigarette was in the
paper wrapper. ''Now have
found substitute for the cheap
tissue wrapper as you will see,
he continued holding the cigarette
in his fingers. "The paper used
by the government for money is of
the very highest grade, chemically
tested and guaranteed of the best

As soon as Col. Breathitt took his

HILARITY CAMP.
Decree for Sale of This Noted
Summer Resort, Jan. g.
Suit Brought In Chancery to Close mp
the Affairs of the Stockholders Some
Disaffectien Among the Members.


| The camping grounds of the Hi
larity Club so well and favorably
known in Morgantown, and over the
state, by friends who have been en-
tertainea BY it, are ordered to be
sold at public auction January 9th.
The reason for the sale is some
disaffection among the stockholders
of the grounds, and a desire to settle
up their business, which has been
somewhat neglected tor time. E.
b. Stewart has been appointed com
missioner to settle the accounts, and
Frank Cox special commissioners to
make sale of the beautiful camping
grounds, which are the finest on
| Cheat River
Suit was brought in chancery by
r. Z. Fast, one of the stockholders.
and others for settlement of the az
fairs of the company and the court
entered a decree for sale.
The stockholders in the club are

Anderson, Prof j. :. Johnston, Col.

DR.. S. S. Wade, and the estate OF
Cbas. A. Hayes, deceased 1t is
said that there are two factions
among the stockholders, and that
each one will be bidder for the
camping grounds. This fact, taken
with the great popularity of the
camp as a summer resort, points to
spirited bidding when the sale comes
up.
This club, has been organized in
Morgantown for good many years,
and has had some of the best times
"Oyer Cheat that any party OF peos
| pie ever had. Many people from
other parts of the state, and from
Pennsylvania have been entertained
by this organization and remember
with much pleasure the grand old
times at the Hilarity camping
grounds.
They are situated about "a half
mile above Mt Chateau Hotel, and
the grounds include 81 acres on

grounds at the mouth of this crystal

ONLY ONE HALF.
Football Crowd Pushed off the
Field.

Crowd Snrged in and Blocked the
Game Both Teams Hot at the Con-
duet Of Visitors Score 5 to o.


The foot ball boys returned Friday
morning considerably ehagrined at the
result of the Thanksgiving day game
at Petersburg, though the only score
made was by the w. V. ". boys.
Thee were about 1000 visitors
present, manager Lardin said. and
they ahmed and surged upon the
teams till the game had to be aban-
doaea at the close of the second half
There were no ropes up to keep the
SPECTATORS back, and they simply took
possession OF the field.
The Parkersburg team was mad as
was the w. V. u. team, but could
mot stem the tide. The first half was
played in little circle with hardly
room to make rush, and our team
would made much larger score. if
therehad been room to play. Our boys
clearly out classed the Athletic CLUB,
and would have liked a chance to play
the game out.
Next time Parkersburg is dying for
game with US, she had better plant
posts in the ground, and put up a
picket fence around the field.
The teams came out all right flnan-
cially, our team making little more
than expenses this time. This game
closes the football season for this
year.

Tennessee is all Right-so is the Pard.

There are few authors who possess
the faculty Of blending the elements
Of huInor and pathos sd happily as
Bret Harte, and few TO whom The art
Of expression comes so easily and
spontaneously. Rret Harte's romances
Of the mining camp have made his
name household word with the En-
speaking race. "Tennessee's
Pardner' is one Of his most popular
stories. The conedy-drama OF the
same name, which was suggested to
the dramatist by Harte's celebrated
sketch, will be presented Monday
December End
One need only witness the produe
ton Of this charming play to be as
sured that the drama does not depend
upon the popularity Of the novel for
its success. 1t is strongly written
comegy-drama and one that possesses
sufficient merit to enable it 20 be its
own champion.
The Story Of the play is interesting
and is told 10 pleasing manner, the
characters are drawn from real life
and the language in which it is told
is good idi0matic English with here
and there touches Of poetic beauty
The love Of good man for woman
with past that Is possibly not With
cut fepfoach, ii strongly set forth,
and not less effective Is her love for
nina love that awakens in her a
de ire TO atone for her past by an hon
e life Ia years to come Equally
feiicitous is the portrayal OF the
friendship that had existed for a long
time between two men and into which
she brought the first discordant note.
There Is happy feature introduced
in the naive artlessness of the orphan,
Little Tennessee, her love for her
daddy" and for the man she chooses
for her ''pard. The comedy element
is quite pronounced, and the produc-
tion has so many good things about il
that it is no exaggeration to declare
it one OF the best comedy-dramas
recently produced. The company
comprises fourteen players, and a
male quartet Of rich quality all OF
whom were especially engaged for
their respective characters without
regard to expense. The play will be
staged with magnificent scenic effects.

CHRISTMAS TREE TRADE.
How one Man Began Large Indus


A writer in Country Life In Amer
lea retells the story OF one Mark Carr
jolly, sturdy woodman living among
the foothills OF the Catskilis, who,
about fifty years ago originally con-
ceiyed the idea OF sending Christmas
trees TO the New York market
Then the Christmas tree was a Gus
tom mostly celebrated by foreigners.
He had heard or read Of celebrations
In the metropolis, when churches and
houses were adorned with pine, hem
lock and holly. It occurred to him
that the stately young fir trees cover
ing the mountainside about his
modest home, might be made profit
able. The chopping and transporta-
ton would comprise the whole cost OF
the enterprise and it could be done at
a season when he had little else to DO.
So, early In December 1851 Mark and
his boys drove two OK sleds, loaded
with young trees, through the deep
snow to the river at Catskill, whence
the father started with them for the
city.
One old fashioned silver dollar Sc
cured strip Of sidewalk on the cor
ner Of Greenwich and vesey streets,
and there the long sighted noun
taineer set forth his forest novelties.
Customers speedily appeared, soon
buying all his wares at prices that
seemed to him positively exorbitant.
Highly elated Mark enjoyed few
days Of town life aud returned home,
but the next year he came again with
a much larger stock, and from that
time TO this the business has continu
ed TO increase until now hundreds Of
thousands Of trees are yearly sold from
Mark Carr's old corner.
