Tc play them like the Watsons' has long
been considered the best that could be done in the
great national game Of draw. The term will here.
after take on business significance as we'll, for
the Watsons are now in the industrial game almost
without limit. The new coal company organized
at Fairmont and owned almost exclusively by the
Watsops, is the largest bituminous coal organiza-
tic n in the country save one, the Pittsburg Coal
Company 1t owns sixty thousand acres of coal
land, has forty operations and will put out some
five millions of tons annually. The Watsons are
right in it-Charleston Gazette

The Democratic press of this state abandons
the idea that to the victors belong the spoils aud
is raising great howl about politics in the normal
schools They never thought to abandon the idea
until they found themselves hopelessly and help
lessly out OF power and until after that did
they ever realize that politics could poss bly, creep
into the schools. They have been profoundly ig
norant along these lines. In fact they never even
knew that state normal faculties were largely the
dominant influence in democratic conventions. But
since these things were SO, the points they raise
now are not we'll taken and their demurrers are
overruled, and as they have answers to file the
republican State OF West Virginia.hands down an
opinion in favor of higher and better education.

Nervous Depression.

The month of July is peculiarly the
month of nervous diseases, especially
nervous prostration and other depressed
states Of the nervous system. People
who arc at all inclined to BIO nervous or
suffer from weak nerves find this month
especially trying. Sultry heat and
electrical disturbances Of the atmos-
phere is probably the cause Of this.
Invalids need to be particularly care
full during the month Of July to fortify
tho nervous sy $ tenn by the use Of Peruna.

Whether the Short Line and Ohio River rail.
roads have been absorbed by the Pennsylvania or
the Baltimore and Ohio is but of little Importance
IS the former has practical control of the latter
and even if that were not true the community of
interests" into which these and other railroads
Gently entered would have the same effects on the
lines reported to have been absorbed Whether
the possibility of competition be destroyed not
by this movement, we can and do congratulate our.
selves upon the fact that the Short Line has been
built and will prove the means of developing one
OF the richest and most rosourceful sections the
globe.

The Ohio republicans held their state conven-
vention and endorsed the course of the National
Administration and re affirmed the national plat
form, showing themselves steadfast and immova-
BILE in their faith and goods works. The democrats
of that state held their state convention, but failed
to either endorse Bryan or re-afirm the national
platform of their party thereby repudiating Bryan
and showing lack OF faith in themselves and prn-
cpes they so zeaously protested to hold less than
year ago. Ohio republicans and Ohio democrats
are fair examples Of the two political parties of
the nation and the lesson to be learned from their
course this year is that the republican party has
confidence in itself, is loyal to its principles and
executes them in the highest and best interests Of
the nation while the democratic party has no faith
in ITSELF knows no fixed principles AID is conscious
of the fact that it can not be trusted to execute the
principles that it even processes TO have.

The editor of the Wheeling News who is a
member of the board of regents of the state normal
schools is evidently greatly worried over his ina
bi,y to dominate the board in the selection of fac
uties, or else he has become chronic GROWER, such
as the democratic faint of protested independent
newspaper is likely to make its editor. The thing
is done, however and all the bowling he can do
from this time until Doom's day will not change
matters or bring things his way.

The Siege of the Legations in Pekin
"a Comparatively Trivial Thing"
Interview with DIR. Nevin in New York
Sun.
Really, I was astonished to find
what a comparatively trivial thing that
Siege of the legations was. Staying
as 1 was at the British legation, was
in the place in which all the foreign
ers took refuge. l got up one morning
before breakfast and looked around the
place. 1t is large square Enclosure of
about thirty acres. At diagonally OPP
posite corners / found some traces of
bombardment. But there was no sign
of any attack upon the old temple in
which most of the people were, nor was
there anywhere about the legation
buildings. ] asked the minister how he
had managed to have the place SO sue
cessfully repaired. No one would dream
! told him, that the place had ever been
bombarded To my utter establishment
found that none of the buildings / had
been examining had been hit at ALL
they had not been fired on. The Chinese
had every opportunity to fire on them,
but did not.
Take into consideration then the
fact that no nom combatant was killed
or wounded and that no one died of
disease during the Siege and I think
we have a new and less romantic view
of the whole proceeding. I had women
who did not know what exceptional OPP
portunities ! had for confidential con-
versations with the authorities-tell me

ROLLER BOAT CROSSES RIVER.
But Misses the Channel and is stuck
Fast in the Mud.

Ogdensburg. n. z. Nov. 25.-Knapp's
roller boat to-day demonstrated it's
ability to roll.
In a binding snowstorm, with a stiff
north wind. it rolled from Prescott
across the st. Lawrence river to Og-
densburg, but missed the channel to
the upper harbor and rolled to the
soft mud on bar abreast the city
and settled hard, surrounded by snow
and ice. Efforts to tow the boat by
long hawsers into the deep water were
unsuccessful and she may not be re-
leased until spring. The inventor and
a stockholder. who were.on board, were
taken off in small boats. The inventor
claims success.
The boat is 10 feet long and % feet
in diameter. An engine is suspended
in a car in the center The motive
power is applied in the form of a
climbing engine. Mr.. Knapp says he
will now build an ocean roller boat,
800 feet long and 200 feet in diameter.
with a capacity of 100000 bushels of
wheat and a speed of II knots an hour.

Editor Morning News: I noticed in
the Weekly News where the swindler
Gay had been arrested by A. F. Pea
cock. I, too, was one of his victims.
About the middle of September last
man came into my commissary and
introduced himself as Gay of Gay &
Ellerbe, naval stores operators" He
said he had gotten into a difficulty
killing two negroes in Charleston, S.
c., and wanting assistance to get back
to his family in Florida. He showed
me a receipt to the effect that $3.50 was
in the Hotel Calhoun of Charles
ton, having been deposited by him,
saying he had to leave before getting
it. He also showed me his June state
ments from Peacock, Hunt & Co. of his
two places of business in Georgia and
Florida, showing a neat balance to
their credit; Offering or promising to
refund the money when he reached
home. However, nothing has been
heard until 1 saw this notice in your
paper. ~
From every appearance he seemed to
be in dire Distress He was six feet
from 200 to 225 pounds, blue or grey
eyes, clean shaved and a large face.

LITTLE ALBERT CONVERSE DEAD
NaIdosta MOurns the Death of a
Bright Little Child.

Valdosts. Ga. Nov. 27.-One of the
saddest deaths that has occurred here
in a long time was that of little Albert
Converse, the 3-year-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. Albert Converse. He was an
exceptionally bright and handsome
child and was a perfect picture of
health UP to a week ago when he was
taken with membraneous Group. The
best medical skill of this city and Ma
con administered to him, but were I'M
able to check the progress of the dis
case. Little Albert was known to every
body in Valdosta and his exceedingly
happy hearted disposition made him a
great favorite. His death causes sor-
row to large circle of friends of the
family throughout this section.
The severe weather for the past two
weeks has made the cane growers get
move on EN-" and the consequence
is that the cane crop is being convert
ed into syrup about as fast as the
kettles can boil the juice. The demand
for syrup barrels is. said to be greater
than ever before. Much of the cane
which was caught by the freeze would
have been ruined and the only way to
save it was to use At promptly in max
ing syrup.
