Reflections on Hr. Trfne.

Ralph Waldo Trine's book. 'In Tune
With the Infinite, " is said to be meeting
with HHrne success in England. The Eng
lish publishers were somewhat amused
at receiving a letter from q lady who
wished them TO send her a copy Of The
Tune Of the Irfants.' When Mr.. Trine
heard this story, he observed that per
haps she had already read the book. and
meant the phrase for a description.

After Hansbrough.

Senator Hansbrough. OF North Da-
kota. whose term expires on March 4. IS
not finding the return pathway strewn
altogether With thoTnless roses. He has
enjoyed a Senatorial career OF twelve
years. and for two years prior to that
time was a member CT the House OF
Representative, end there are people
up In that far north State who believe
that he is not entitled to enjoy a mo-
nopoly upon Senatorial honors. Chief
among these is the Hen. N. n. Johnson.
an erstwhile member OF the House. and
while so serving was a member Of the
Ways and Means Committee. for some
reason which TO many people has never
yet been satisfactorily explained. SIX
years ago Mr. johnson entertained no.
uon that a Senatorial tosa would be a
beautiful adornment for himself He
entered the race against Senator Hans
brough, and since that time only now
and then a returning traveller from
that section has been able to impart
any information in regard to Johnson.
Now il appears that he Is forcing his
way toward the political horizon again,
but the friends Of Senator Hansbrough
are confident that he viii fall with the
dull and sickCning thud long before
there is any chance Of his reaching the
zenith At any rate. however. be is caus-

son has a following among the swedes

but that after brief struggle he viii

THE WEATHER.
During October has Seldom if
ever been EquaIed in this Sec.
ton of Country.

y
This Is the last day OF October
and the weather, with bat very
slight exceptions, has been ideal
throughout the entire month. The
bright sunshine and balmy days
that have prevailed, almost unin-
terrupted, have made it the banner
month of 1902.
The present month has been de-
lightful beyond description, and In
no section of country is there a
month equal 10 beauty 10 that of
the West Virginia October. Ask
an individual who has had nothing
that has been dependent upon a
supply of rain, and he will read
lily agree with you that the weather
has been par excellence. Call his
attention, also, to the beautiful for.
ests and the exhilarating breezes
that gently fan them. making
combination that at once produces
health and happiness.
But without regard to Its utility
the autumn season throughout the
great Ohio Valley is certainly most
delightful. Whatever might be
the rest of the year, with
reference to the uncertainty of the
climate; about the heat and mois-
ture, the fact remains that nowhere
Is there a more enjoyable climate
than that of the month of October,
In the State of West Virginia, to be
found. The air Is always fresh aud
lnvigorating.
