Letter to George Wchncr,

Uear !Sr-McsSrs. Leachman n Edelin,,
Grafton, W. Va, had been selling a paint,
which they thought well of; and tins had
occurred
They had sold customer Is gallons of it
to paint his house. \ few years later they
sold the same man Devoe lead-and-zinC the
same number of gallons to paint the same
house. He had gallons left.
The point of the tale is: II gallons Devoe
paints an lS-gallon house.
OF course that isn't all
Why does II gallons Dcvoc 20 so far as Is
gallons of other paint? Because 1t is all
paint, all true, no sham, and full measure
But that isn't all. Devoe lasts longer.
No. no you haven't got to wait ten years to
find that out. Ten thousand people know
it. We've got their names. Our agents
know them they think a heap of Devoe.
There's no difficulty in showing your towns
people what to expect of Devoe. so will
paint a SIS house and the paint II last twice
as long. Yours truly,
+. W. DEvoE Il Co.

Saturdays game was "a cracker Jack"
Up to the seventh the running was meek
and neck" as the score at that time was
tie of ,. Things were mighty warm and the
visitors were fighting every minute, deter
mined to win at least one game of the series.
The crowd, which was the largest of any,
barring the holidays, was enthusiastic in APP
prevail of good plays, whether made by the
locals or visitors, and made things hum and
the coaching of the visitors was the very
best seen here this season.
Kerr and kilgorc for the visitors, and
Shovel SpateS for Our Own did some
coaching that was truly artistic
William Spates was on the slab for Our
Own and was as wild as the proverbial
March hare" Had the home-plate been a
big diamond he could not have located it at
times. He gave six men passes to first, three
eventually scoring. His support at times
was erratic, as Metz, who had his hand IN
jured in Fridays game, was Off-color in his
throwing.
Capt. Gunnett, at third, was in sloppy
weather condition and his throwing-arm
slipped cog"
For the visitors Capt. Naylor was the
bright particular star, as he OBLIGATED on the
slab and threw a ball that was good.
Kerr, the rcceving-gcneral, played well
every minute.
The men behind Naylor made errors like
Joseph Bowen umpired Il very satisfactory
game.

The mayor very properly, at the last
meeting insisted that every committee
and town officer should bring in a writ
ten report of the years work in their
respective departments. There has not
been in the history of this city the sys-
tcmatic work that there should be. This
goes back from the first recollection of
the present generations. There should be
laid before the council at every meet
ing the actual condition of the finances,
the work upon the streets, the work or
dercd but not done, the amount yet to
be collected of the revenues of the city.
in fact, summing up of all the depart
mcnts such as will give clear insight
as to what has been done, what is to be
done and what there is to do it with.
There can be very beneficial reform in
the procedure. See that it is made. The
men in charge of the finances should in
form the council in open session at the
end of every month Just how the Il
nanees stand, how much has been col
lccted and how much remains to be col
Iected. The committees and officers
should know almost to the cent what
the work has cost and what proposed
work will cost. Let everything be done
on business basis.

PAUL GILMORE.

The Wheeling Register has the fol.
lowing to say of the Paul Gilmore com
pany, which fills an engagement at the
Traders Grand opera house on Wednes-
day, April Is:
paul Gilmore. who appeared at the
Court theatre last night in John Drew's
piece, @The Tyranny of Tears" will
next season star in another of John
Drew's plays. "The Mummy and the
Hummingbird.'
"All the stage settings, scenery and
paraphernalia which were necessary for
the production of The Mummy and the
Hummingbird' at the Empire theatre in
New York has been secured from Mr..
Charles Frohman and will be carried on
the tour Of the principal cities next sea
son by Mr.. Gilmore.
..Nir. Gilmore has been the recipient OF
the highest praise for his work in The
Tyranny Of Tears this season. The
story of the play is founded on actual
occurrences. Haddon Chambers wovc the
story about the experiences of mar
ried couple of his acquaintance in Lon
don. It is bundle of bright lines. It
has been rightly termed the comedy OF
temperament.
Mr.. Gilmore won his greatest success
in Under the Red Robe Don Caesar,
and The Three NIusketeers.' But now
the adventurous roles have been discard,
ed for work in the higher dramas

There is not city in West Virginia
more favored than Clarksburg, in fact.
none so well favored, and the future is
bright, industrially, commercially and
otherwise. Every citizen should feel
encouraged and lend his best efforts.
The assurance of the location of impor-
tant Industries here in the next twelve
months should stimulate every patriotic
citizen and discourage any disposition to
knock and retard the growth Of the city
If the people, irrespective Of political
affiation and personal preiudices viii
get together they can do much for the
promotion Of Clarksburg's best indus
tcrests. The Telegram. having only this
object in view. is ready TO do this and.
rs in the past, viii do this, but, at the
same time, will have no patience with
those who maliciously keep up strife and
contention. II every man will JOIN in
the movement to make this city what
It has the right to be and what the Tel
cgram believes 1t will be, it viii not BE-
long until it viii be tho metropolis Of
the state. The Telegram insists that
all the prciudiccs that govern certain
classes be eliminated from the conduct
Of business, whatever its nature, anu
that there be unity.

Mr.. Paul Gilmore in THE Tyranny d
Team"

Owing to the fact that Mr.. Gilmore,
who is this season starring in .sThc
Tyranny of Tears" is little known
through this section of the country, hay,
ing only played the larger cities, Mr..
Nlurry, his manager, and the local man.
agcr, Mr.. Farland, have deemed it ad.
visable to reduce the scale of prices
from Sl.5O to 81. Mr.. Gilmore has been
all season at the Sl:5O prices.
We have numerous letters, newspapers
1t cetera from all parts of the country
where the organization has appeared,
and we have yet to find an adverse
criticism. This attraction will be uu-
doubtedly one of the theatrical events
of the season, and seeing that tie prices
are reduced, the attendance will un.
doubtedly be large.

ALBERTA GALLATIN
IN @As YOU LIKE IT"

A spring tour of Shakespeare's de-
Iirhtful rustic comedy, AS You Like It.
with Alberta Gal!atin as Rosalind and .
select company of Shakcsperean players
has been arranged by Ernest Shipman
of New York. The tour is limited to
thirty special performances and already
since its first announcement in the dra-
matte papers, the demand for time has
greatly exceeded the number to be given.
Gigantic spring REVEALS of Shakespeare
have become quite "the thing of late
in the larger cities aud Mr.. shipman
who is usually first in the field in tho
the larger cities with the good things
has surrounded Miss Gallatin with near
" an all.star cast, as the names Will
show. The scenic embellishments are
said to be an exact reproduction OF the
famous $4,000 production which Julia
Arthur used in New York recently.
Our city is on the list, if the demand
for seats Will justify the organization
to stop here. We sincerely hope the
many students of literature. as well as
other theatre goers, will cooperate with
our local manager in securing this ut
traction. Grand opera house April 90
