ART CLUB.
The Members Held an Interesting
Newspaper Social.
THE VARIOUS SCOOPS.

A newspaper social is the latest de-
velopment of the reasonably intelligent
and sprightly Art club, and the new
and unconventional idea proved to be a
very interesting and amusing social
affair.
The social began with the lively
time usually in evidence in the edi-
torial rooms of a big sheet. The vivid
imaginations soon adapted themselves
to the fascinating life of knowing ev-
erything, from what the prisoner
whispered to the policeman to what
and how to feed babies.
The editor.in-chief, the promoter of
the unique social, accepted the posi-
ton for himself, because he never has
any work to do, but confines himself
to the pleasant task of making others
work.
Each member of the staff was as
signed to the department for which he
was best suited. A tall dignifed gen.
tleman, wearing glasses, was assigned
to the department Of fashion notes.
The young gentleman, whose artistic
taste is used in a clothing store, and
has a reputation for being a confirmed
bachelor, was given a column on
children. Musical notes were as
signed to a young business man, well
known for his lack of appreciation of
music. A tickle minded young sport
was made book reviewer, and the
most matter-of-fact gentleman of the
club was made the joke editor. Then
each a to get a sensational scoop.
An intermission of thirty minutes to
get in the copy was a genuine imita-
ton of a night in the office of the New
York Journal.
At the end of that period the editor
in-chief called his staff to 60 to press.
They all enjoy the evening press. Then
came ~thereading of the copy, criticized
by the other editors amid a tumult
Of shouts of laughter, turning sud-
denly to tears. The strong points of
the fashion editors copy were that
long trains are now the most fashion
able on the railroads. and the capes on
the east coast of Africa. The editor
of the children's corner stated that
the best way to raise children was to
grab hold of the hair, and the way to
keep them clean vas never to wash
them.
The musical editor assured the
critics that the most desirable notes
were bank notes, and the least desira-
BILE were t~hirty-day notes. He con-
cluded by adding that the .editor-in-
chief was a D-sharp. and If he kept
practicing he would be in Sing-Sing.
The book reviewer endorsed Jessie
James," Nick Carter and other cele-
brated authors as being suitable for
school books, especially night school.
The first scoop was how Columbus
discovered America, landing before
the reporters got next. A second was
on an interview with a celebrated ac-
tor in the Elks new theatre on Gold
avenue. The third on the capturing of
a runaway street a on Railroad,

instance of this kind occurred at Hol-

1t is not unreasonable to say that the
little trading post draws business from
both the north and the south of the
railroad, in a radius OF ITS miles. Not
only do the merchants sell large
quantities of groceries and other sup
plies, but they trade considerably in
Navajo blankets and Indian curios

these goods can be bought from most

DRY GOODS MERCHANTS.
A Few Pointers on Advertising for
Their. Benefit.

The first one in the field with an an
nouncement will probably get the
greatest share of the business in the
dry goods men handle linens. but the
store where they make the greatest
talk about the linens they carry will
probably have the greatest returns in
the way of linen sales. The same is
true in other lines. A dry goods man
advertised a special line of blankets,
and the weather turned warm just at
that time and he didn't sell one the
day following the announcement. He
had used a half a page of space to tell
about the blankets ne was Offering, and
the blankets prevented the selling OF
any of them. Three days later it grew
cold again and the day following the
cold snap he sold more blankets than
all the other dry goods men In town
Put together. If the advertisement
failed to pull the day after the adver-
tisement was issued there was reason
to expect that its greatest force might
be lost. But the advertisement was a
good one and remained in the minds
or the people who read 1t. and the
needs of the season made them buy the
goods advertised. The man who talk
ed blankets all the year would proba-
bly, be able to sell the most of the
blankets, for he would create the i'm
preston that his was the store at
which to buy blankets. Talking along
a given line gives the impression that
the advertiser is especially well post
ed and we'll stocked along thu. line
People like to buy where the merchant
has a knowledge of what he is Offering
and where they feel he has used his
knowledge of the goods for the benefit
OF his stock when he went to buy 1t
The persistent talker about certain ar
ticles reaps a benefit in this way.

PARKERsBuRG, Feb, ga sad &C.
cident occurred last midnight at the
Jennings Hotel, headquarters for
railroad men, in the East End, when
George Holly was shot aud killed by
his intimate friend, Lawrence O'Neil.
The two, with other friends, were
standing in the hotel and had been
joking. Holly remarked that he was
going to commit suicide at IL o'clock.
1t was only few minutes before Il
aud some one suggested that he be
given revolver to see If he had the
nerve TO kill himself
1t was part of the joke that the car
tridges were TO be taken out before he
was given the weapon and while O Neil
was taking them out one OF them dis
charged, entering Holley's brain and
causing death in a few minutes, No
inquest was deemed necessary, but at
0'Neil's request Il hearing was given
him this afternoon and he was dis
missed after the Justice had heard

when he found that he had killed his

to share in the pleasant welcome
and most interesting program at
Mrs. A. w. Browns last night. Mrs.
d. G. Howard, Mrs. Plumb, Miss
Sarah w. Johnson aid Mr. and Mrs.
Snee were elected members. The
membership of the club has now
reached one hundred and it was de
cided that no more members shall
be added until the membership shall
have fallen below ninety and that
then the membership shall not ex
coed ninety. 1t was announced that
the programs have been arranged
for every meeting of the club from
now to the end of 1902. The new
system of programs whereby a lit
erary person will be considered goes
into effect at the next meeting when
Prof. Barbe will give survey of
contemporary writer's and Professor
FL B. Clark will discuss contempor-
airy social conditions.
Miss Julia Aileen Clark delighted
the club with two songs; and neces
sarily, two more. Mrs. Snee accom-
panied her.
Mr.. D. W. Ohern's paper on
Greek Myths in English Litera
ture' was even more pleasing than the
subject had suggested The Greek
Myths are nothing, if not beautiful
Mr. Ohern told them admirably
with a loving appreciation of their
charm. He traced the stories OF
Venus and Adonis, Pyrannus and
Thisbe, Cupid and Psyche, Hero
and Leander and Orpheus and Fury
dice, through our English poets and
read freely to show what treasure
house these myths had been tol
poets. He did not confne himself tC
serious selections but especially
pleased the club with Shakespeare
rendering of Pyrannus and Thisbt
in midsummer Nights Dream.
Mr. Ohern had done his work in 6
most scholarly way. The paper in
deed was thesis. From Chaucel
to Lewis Morris every treatment O
the stories worth noting was re
ferred to- Perhaps the one that most
interested the club was that of Or
pheus and Eurydice.
The next meeting will be at Mrs
Cook on March 7.

Cold Makes Boating Expensive.

The conditions under which Mon
ongahela riyermen are at present
boating are the worst that were ever
known. The Monongahela River
Consolidated Coal & Coke Company
have been compelled to keep a large
force of men at work at Elizabeth
marine ways rebuilding wheels. The
steamers are compelled TO back down
the Monongahela with theirstows of
coal and break channel way with
their wheels. This makes kindling
wood of wheel buckets and arm
braces and as fast as a vessel strips
her wheel in this fashion she is sent
to the boat yard for repairs. This
causes loss of time as well as great
expense. The company must de-
liver coal to the mills in the Pitts
burg district, for with the supply of
fuel out the mills might have to
close and this would throw thous
auds OF men out Of employment.

INTERESTING REPORT.
Tremendous Advancement to be shown
in Forth Coming Labor Report.

Eloquent and convincing figures in
the forthcoming biennial report of
the West Virginia Bureau of Labor
will tell of West ViIginia's marvellous
industrial advancement. The report,
which will deal with new Industries.
will be ready for distribution about
the end of the month. 1t Will cover
the years 1900 and 1901.
Some idea of the States develop
ment along this line may be gained by
the fact that the increase of capital
invested at the end of 1901 over that
shown at the end of 1899 will be just
$40, 900, 900. The biennial report,
ending with 1899 showed an increase
of $25, 900, 600 over the report of the
previous two years. In other words
there is S65. 900, 600 more invested in
dustrially now than there was few
years ago
The greatest percentage of increase
is shown in the glass business. There
are now seven window glass factories
and two more in prospect. This in
dustry was unknown in West Virginia
few years back. The prolific supply
of natural gas and very cheap rates, as
low as cents thousand feet account,
for the glass factory impetus. But
West Virginia's gain is really Indl-
ana's loss, for with the playing out of
the Indiana gas belt has come the
movement West Virginiaward.
The increased number of employees
shows that practically all Of them
have come from three Shakespeare
sylvania, Ohio and Indiana, for which
the growth Of the glass business is
responsible. The report in detail,
compiled by State Labor Commits
sioner |. V. Barton will be awaited
with interest.
