been invited to sing on this particular
selection.
The army did not seem In the least

more than slight incident like that
to disturb the Salvation Army Of
Champion. At the conclusion of song
everybody on the platform kneeled
down.
Rhena Dwight was In the center of
the little group. The audience was as
quiet now as 1t had been noisy be,

lamp just over her head, and as she
kneeled there in the midst Of those
rough surroundings Stuart could not
crowd back the thought Of what this
girl had been and what she was now.

crowd and saw here and there tears
running over rough cheeks Of men
and women. Then he bowed his own
head, and when the prayer was finish

Immediately after Rhenas prayer

The people OF Clarksburg had such an inter
est and pride in the Clarksburg wooden mills re-
Gently burned and regarded it such a grand in
dustry That they are hopeful Mr. r. T. Lowndes,
ST.. the owner, will rebuild them. Father to the
thought. they are saying he has decided to do SO at
an early date The report is current that he has
already determined on such action and that hewlll
replace the buildings with fine brick structures at
a cost OF from 1875, 600 to $4,000; and will equip
them with more and better machinery than before
they burned This industry was one of the best
Clarksburg had and for many years it was the
leading enterprise in our midst. Among its beau
ties as an industrial feature of the city was that it
kept in operation the year round. There was no
shut.downs for certain seasons and when markets
we're low and dull. The mills were run on the
principle that the goods could be sold in The iu.
ture, If a market was not at hand when they ware
finished The half hundred employed anp"ec1 Hed
that fact and ever had the klnoees regard Tor lelr
employer. AS recommendation for Giar1- burg
the mills led. Their product was of The highest
and best quality and "ttrwte ~" alt"nt !" :"
many Of the iobbers OF the country. Lo"ndes'
woolens held their own in the markets and never
suffered for market. The mills afforded home
market for the wool grown by the farmers
of this country. The advantages this mag
nlhcent industry gave 10 OlaFhHourR were hulnet
GUS and of the best nature The loss is keeny felt
by all our citizens and there is general sympathy
tor Mr.. Lowndes in the destruction of such grand
monument to life time of devotion, energy and ex
peuditure of money. The fire meant more To the
employer than we can portray. In single night
they saw themselves thrown out of employment in
midw,nter and the future looked gloomy to them.
For their sake as well as the good of Clarksburg
and Harrison county, it Is hoped llr Lowndes will
rebuild the mills, and in the undertaking he will
have the good will and best wishes of every citi.
zen When asked about his intention he replied
that it was too early talk about it and would not
be interviewed bat the Telegram takes great
pleasure in the belief that he is seriously consid
ering the matter.

The fire.alarm system is most miserable. Iii,
almost impossible to tell where fire is. The
whistle makes continuous noise and no one can
distinguish the number of the ward by the signal
given. All the public learns is that there Is fire
and the people and fire fighters run around the
corners asking one another about it and wondering
If they will fnd out. When the new fire depart
ment is inaugurated in January, be sure and ar
range for alarm boxes and have the alarm sent 10
direct to headquarters. AS it is those who blow
the whistle would give much better service, il SO
much haste was not exercised after the first gen.
eral alarm is given. Stop long enough betweeo
sounds to take breath and give the public the
to count.
