place them with entirely new ones.

CURRENCE D0DGEs TRIAL.
Man Accused of Swindling Old Soldiers
Claims he is Legally a Lunatic.

PARKERsBURG, w. V, June %.
In the United States Court to-day The
case OF Charles Wesley Currence, who
is charged with defrauding pensioners
out of money by representing himself
to be be a son Of the Pension Commits
soner and offering for a fee to have
their pensions raised, was continued
till next term. One of bis attorneys
stated that Cnrrence had intended to
plead guilty, and he had witnesses
for that reason
To-day Gurrence changed his mind
and refused to plead guilty, so his at
torney dropped the case, and another
took it. He held that as Currenee
had escaped from the insane asylum
and has never been discharged as cur
ed he is therefore legally luantic yet,
and the Court had no right to try
him.

The Charleston Mail says:
1t is developing at the adjutant gen.
erals Office that there is going to be
a hot contest pulled off between Park
ersburg and Huntington people in the
effort for the location OF the next en-
campment of the West Virginia Ma
tional guard Just at present Hunt

most effective ticks for the big event,
but Parkersburg is preparing to make
a strong bid for the encampment and
will be on hand very soon with what
they believe will be an upset bid which
will knock the persimmon. The gen.
eral impression is that the order for
the encampment this year will contain
the name of one of these cities as the
rendezvous, and the two towns are
making a vigorous struggle for the
performance.

A Memorable Event.

Union Valley district does not boast
OF its learned citizens. musical arts,etc,
1t simply wishes to be remembered as
a community that appreciates earnest
persevering work In schoolroom. For
the last week there has been an unu-
sual stir in the pantries of the good
ladies' in our vicinity. The mystery,
however, which developed this activity
was not cleared away until the noon
hour, Friday, March 2S, when host
of the neighbors entered the school
room aud took the teacher and pupils
by storm. The tables were soon groan-
Ing under the delicacies which only our
worthy matrons know how to prepare.
After dinner program that reflec-
ted much credit on teacher and stu
dent was rendered. Complimentary
remarks pertaining to the teachers
work were spoken by patrons OF the
district. Then good Dyes were said, a
four-sack of tears shed, when neigh
bors departed for their homes feeling
that one more link connecting home
and school had been welded In our
community. Patrons Of the district
join in extending their thanks to Miss
Julia Daley for the three years OF sue
cessful and untiriDg effort spent In
our midst and congratulate boards OF
education fortunate enough to secure
her future services.

500, 900, 900 year more than she
sells to us and give it to another
country which sells to us S., 900, 900
more than she buys of us; and, not
getting a satisfactory reply, will
probably proceed to get even on
the producers of our gram, meats
and fruit-on the producers of
everything, in fact, which she
can get anywhere else. This mush
about starving Cubans" is likely
to get us into pretty mess in the
end if followed up. 1t will neces
sarlly lead to concessions to other
countries, the driving of our sugar
growing farmers out of business, and
the reduction of Our laboring men
to a diet of black bread. San
