CHANGES N School BOOKS
DO NOT MEET WITH THE APPROVAL
OF PATRONS or THE
SCHOOLS.
PETITIONS WERE IGNORED
BY the Ohio County School Book
Bonrd-HOw the Poor People Are
Affected by the Change In Text
B0oKs-The Uniformity Book Bill
Was a Poor Acknowledgement ON
Recent Legislature.

The action of the Ohio County School
Book Board, at its meeting last Satur-
day. in adopting a virtually new set Of
books for the schools in the county
districts, does not meet with the APP
prevail of citizens of Ohio county, judy
ing by the expire .sions Of opinion
which are heard. flom representative
farmers and others who are more or
less interested in educational matters.
The old schedule of books was adopted
about five years ago, and the books
have all been changed with the excep-
ton OF the old arithmetic.
Gentlemen who are interested in the
matter say the present deplorable situ-
alton might have been prevented if the
recent Legislature had adopted the uni
formfty school book bill, which aimed
a blow at the perEiclous system of
changing books at the whim OF the
boards in the respective counties. The
bill was held up by lobbyists in the
State Senate. A promanent Ohio coun-
ty farmer stated yesterday that he re-
garded the uniformity book bill as the
most important cas- under consid-
Grafton by the recent Legislature.
The Ohio county Scnool Book Board
is charged WITT absolutely ignoring the
petitions OF the people whom it serves,
and thereby isrepresenting them.
The Board adopted a substitute for
Hyde's Language Lessons, notwith-
standing that book was recommended
by the faculty Of the West Liberty Nor
NAL School.
A petition asalnsC tie change in text
books was signed by a majority of the
teachers of Chic county, and similar
petitions. n~umerously signed. were pre-
scented by patrons OF the schools in
Liberty, Triadelphia and Richland dis
tricts. Notwithstanding the strong
sentiment against the change in the
books, the Board adopted an entire
new schedule, with n exception.
A we'll known citizen of Ohio coun-
ty, who is interested in the education
of the youth, said yesterday:
"The Ohio county Board cannot give
a good reason for making the changes.
lit cannot be shown that the new
books are superior to the old. The
change requires teachers to familiar
ize themselves with new text books,
but that is by no means the most SER
ious result. Everybody knows that it
is the custom in families of moderate

pnrdons arrived at tho prison yester-
day afternoon and ID & short time At
terward the Two men walked out the
gate, free men.
McConaughy, who Is q well known
wheeling character. was convicted OF
burglary in the Criminal Court about
a year 6 and sentenced to serve six
years In the p~enitentiary. It was
charged that McConaughy feloniously
entered the poker room run by Bob
Clark in the Second ward. The place
is a well known g resort and Nc
Conaughy was convicted solely upon
the evidence Of colored people. It was
said that he climbed up the outside
Of the building in the glare OF an cleo
trio light and broke open a window.
It was claimed by the defense that
McConaughy knew that the room con-
tanned nothing Of value and that there
was no incentive to enter the place in
the above manner. However, his con-

viction was secured and De entered
upon his sentence In the ~penitentiary.
Since then his friends and his attorney,
Mr.. s. @. Boyce, have worked dill
gently to secure q pardon for him and
at last they have been successful.
w. A. BurWell was sent up from
Fayette county about seven years ago
to serve a life sentence for murder.
BurWell was at the time q mere boy,
and that fact perhaps saved him from
the gallows. Burwell, who was of a
respectable Virginia family, and two
companions planned to rob an aged
resident of Fayette county, but the
old gentleman objected, and to sue
coed in their purpose the trio brutal
ly murdered him. The crime was dis
covered and the three boys were arrest
ed and duly tried in the Criminal
Court. They were found guilty of
first degree murder. One of them re-
ceived the death sentence and was
hanged while Burwell and Charles
Bays were sent to the penitentiary for
life. Bays was rec0Innsended for exec
utive clemency by the Board OF Par
dons at a recent session, but he died
before the pardon could De issued by
the Governor.
The devotion of Bprwell's sisters to
their efring brother has been the sub
ject OF much comment by those ac-
quainted with the facts Of the case and
it was doubtless due to the ceaseless
efforts OF his sister, Miss Lucy Burwell,
that a pardon wal secured for him.
Abnut tW0 wears ago She came to
Moundsville from Washington, D. c.,
and has remained there ever since and
as often as permitted by the rules OF
the institution, she visited her brother
and kept him well supplied with liter
ature, fruit and various things that
tend to relieve tn, harshness of prison
life. She was employed as a nurse
at the Reynolds Memorial Hospital.
Burwells aged father is lying dam
.gerously i'll and as soon as he received
his discharge yesterday he left for his
home.

CONTRACTOR n INFECTION.
La Grippe u Infections but Not Con
taxfOua.

- grippe II 1n1ectt0un but Not Cor
taxfOua.
Contagious diseases are COM
municated from one person to an
other: infectious diseases are con-
veyed through the air.
Smallpox is a contagious disease:
La Grippe is infectious. When an
epidemic OF the grip is prevailing
it is in the air we breathe and no
one is safe.
The only safeguard is to keep the
system in the highest possible Con-
dition of health and one the first
appearance of a cold in the head
to use some safe a~ntiSeptic like
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets freely. a
tablet taken every hour or two for
a couple of days win be sufficient
to break up the attack.
La Grippe attacks the weakest
part OF the system. it may be the
lungs, heart, liver, stomach or kid
neys but wherever it finally locates
it almost invariably starts with
cold in the head and throat or in
other words, the disease at the be-
ginning is acute eatarrh.
This is the reason Stuarts Ca
tarrh Tablets have been SO success
full in breaking up attacks of grip.
The %antiseptic properties of the
remedy destroy the germs before
the whole system is thoroughly in
fected.
DIR. Admission says: Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets being free from CO.
caine and harmful drugs should be
freely used at this time of year on
the first appearance of grip symp-
toms.
They check the excessive catarr-
hal secretions. stop the fever and
prevent pneumonia.
They are composed of antisep-
tics and may be used by little
children as freely as by adults and
with great benefit.
DR.. Lewiston says: My usual
prescription for the grip is Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets which can be
found at all drug stores. Keep
to the house for a day or two and
use the tablets freely, and have
never heard any complaint of fail
ure to cure.
