Sacred to the Memory Oh NrS.
j. q. ParkersOn.
Good lent her all good things that mortals
And I'D her steps through pleasant ways
and gave
With lavish hand all gifts with pleasure
rife.
And with loves prism, her snowy brow He
touched,'
On the bright, glorious morn
ing of the hallowed day of All
Saints, her beautiful soul re-
turned again to it's Maker. Sur
rounded by her Borrowing fam
lily, she passed through the dark
valley, and as her loved ones babe
goodbye, angels joyously led
her to the pearly portals that
stood ajar to receive one of Gods
own children, and methinks we
heard the Masters voice saying,
well done, good and faithful
servant, enter thou into eternal
life."
Hers was life of unselfish
devotion to her children and her
home. She reared a large family
to useful wOmanhOod and man.
hood, and they, in return, lavished
all their love on her and soothed
her declining years, and truly do
we believe that cher children
will arise and call her blest.''
To the aged husband, who is
thus left to mourn the loss of a
devoted companion, do we in
mingled pain and grief, extend
the sincerest sympathy, and
pray that God will give to him
the peace that passeth all under
standing. This world is better
for her having lived in it, for she
was a woman of superior judg-
ment, giving good counsel, a
cheering word, and a bright
smile to all who passed her way.
Those who knew her best, loved
her most, and many are the
friends who will miss her from
her accustomed place. Her
death was the close of a noble
Christian life-a life of devotion
to her God, and as she lay beauti
full in death, we realized that she
had not lived in vain, but that
her sweet presence would be
felt in her home in after years,
and that the influence of her
Christian life would go down
through the ages, a beacon-light
to guide the faltering footsteps
as memorial of her saintliness,
the little church which was so
dear to her heart, and which, but
for her beneticence, we would
not enjoy. 1t bespeaks her
great desire to influence others
to follow in the paths her steps
had trod. Truly, they were
paths of peace and righteous
ness, leading to a beautiful home
beyond the skies, where wife,
mother, and friend awaits the
loved ones for whom she never
ceased to pray. God grant that
as the golden chain is severed on
earth, so may it be joined again
in heaven.
Farewell, dear one,
Thy work is done,
To God we leave the rest
A LOVING FRIEND.

FIRST UP-RIvEK WRECK.
The "fsessie" Got Mixed up With a
Crosstie and Broke her Propeller.
Story of the Times.


Slackwater will yet be Il death
of somebody at Fairmont. The
Times, with somewhat remarkable
command of nautical terms, has the
following story:
"Ihe first steamboat wreck on the
Monongahela river since the coming
of slackwater, occurred at Hoult
Thursday afternoon when the Bessie,
Captain Henry Hsger's smart little
craft, ran afoul of crosstie and
broke her propeller. A dozen pas
sengers were on the boat and for q
moment there was almost panic
but Captain Hager, with great pres
ence of mind, smiled a full round
smile and drove fear out Of all their
hearts. He also put an easy stor
on the machinery, which was NOV
ing off at Lou Dillon clip after the
screw shaft snapped, caught an oar
which. was kept on board for such
emergencies, and soon put the ex-
cursionists off on shore.
captain Hager mas been naullng
a great mar y passengers to Hoult in
bis boat. Thursday business was
particularly good, and the vessel was
loaded to the nozzle. The machin-
cry was given every encouragement
to go down in hurry and come back
in rush, so that another load
might be put aboard. When the
last trip was half over the Bessie's
rudder was pulled with hard jerk
to the haw side. The PROV of the
boat wheeled in response and the
propeller was working with alacrity
when suddenly crosstie inserted
itself in the orbit of the screw. The
passengers did not get even little
wet, but they got nice cool walk
up the river road to the city"

WEST VIRGINIA NON.
Defeated Marietta in a Brilliant
Contest.


Ohio Lads scored Two Touehdawns b,
Fast Werk-Mest Virginia Out.
clsssed Buckeye Boys In Every De
partment Of Game Big Crowd Saw
I Contest.
From A staff Correspondent
MARIETTA, Ohio, October IL
Thirty-six seconds after the game
began at Marietta yesterday after
noon, Magoffin crossed West vir-
giria's goal line for touchdown
ard repeated the performance one
minute and fifty seconds after the
second halt began. Theru making
the scores were brilliant but aside
from this, the Buckeye boys were
never in the game and their heavier
opponents gained at will.
West Virginia depended on line
plunges and carried the ball down
the field by steady gains. Their
scores were made by straight foot
ball. Mutton, Martin, Core, Hay
mond and Seamon played the best
game for the Varsity, while there
was nothing to the Marietta end OF
of it but Magoffin.
Every inch that the Morgantown
boys made was 5y straight foot ball,
while Marietta could do nothing
aside from wide end runs, when
Magoffin skirted the ends, and aided
by splendid interference, crossed
the line.
The score should have been 800,
and but for the weakness OF Want,
who was suffering from old injuries,
this score would have resulted. He
played plucky game, nevertheless.
Parkersburg sent up more than a
hundred rooters and many old stu
dents we're to be seen on the side
lines. They we're enthusiastic over
the showing made and are full of
praise for Coach Trouts men, who,
not discouraged by scores that turn
ed the game against them at two
stages, snatched victory from defeat.
The first touchdown for West
Virginia was made ten minutes after
play started, when Martin carried
the ball over. Nullton kicked a
pretty goal. After that, there was
nothing doing, until the half ended,
with the score &C.
Less than two minutes after play
began in the second half, Magoffin
went around the end for another
touchdown, and Chadwick failed to
kick goal. Then it was that West
Virginia began to pound the line.
Nine minutes later, Mutton broke
through the line for another touch
down, which he later turned into a
goal. After four minutes more of
play, Lefty Core again carried the
pig skin across Mariatta's goal line,
and Mutton kicked the ball between
the posts. When the last half ended
w. v. U. was within five yards of a
fourth touchdown, and would have
scored with another play, having
rushed the ball down the field for
repeated gains Of from 3 to s yards
at clip.
Marietta is in gloom today, hav-
ing had supreme confidence in
their team, and believed that the
'snake-huaters' could never win
against their prize team.
Noll, who officieted tor Marietta
was the best player they had on the
field and his decisions had much to
with keeping the score down.
There was very little fumbling,
and Marietta was the chiet offender
in this respect. The line up:

three days and in that time 305 indict-

view of the fact that the judge of

Mysterious Parsonage, Contributes
S400- Pastor is Looking for Others
Of His Stripe-Corner Stone Laying
This Evening.
Sunday was a very successful
day, financially, for the local NJ. E.
church. Something over So, 500 was
subscribed to the fund for the new
church at the morning and evening
eryices. This came in sums from
$500 down to SIS, and a great num-
Der of people therefore had part in
raising it.
Rev. w. B. King, of Moundsville,
preached strong sermon in the
morning in which he took the Meth
odists sorely to task for worshipping
God from afar off. They went by
fits and starts, he said-about forty
fits to one start. The music at the
morning session was exceptionally
fine.
Following the services. the move
ment to raise money for the new
church was started. Several promi-
nent members went among the con-
gregation and secured su descriptions.
Mrs. I. Pickenpaugh gave $500 and
Clark Pickenpaugh $500.
A mysterious contributor with
whom no one seemed to nave even a
speaking acquaintance, and who
signed himself plain John Smith,
gave $500, Nothing could be learned
about him except that he is the son
of old man Smith, and IS very mod
est. Anyway he gave his check for
$400 this morning and retired into
obscurity. DR.. Compton would like
to make the acquaintance of some
more of the Smith family of his
stripe.
When the good work was stopped
about 1890, $1,000 had been sub
scribed, all Of which was gilt edge.
In the evening, after fine sermon
by the presiding eioer, Rey. S. j.
Robinson, and notable musical fea-
lures, the subscription was started
again, and over $4,000 was secured.
The church hopes to add to this
materially at the corner stone lay
ing this evening.
The funds in hand now amount to
about $4,000. The church has
real estate valued at about $4,000
and subscriptions to the amount of
$4,000. There is still considerable
money to be raised to pay for the
structure.
The services at the corner stone
laying this afternoon will begin
promptly at four o'clock. Ali the
details for the services have been
arranged, and large crowd is ex-
pected TO participate. Several
prominent divines are in attendance
from out of town and will take part,
as stated in the program given in
detail by this paper Saturday.
