Halloween "Fun.,

To the Editor of the New DOMINION.
One year ago some Narauders took
Halloween license to commit depre-
dations on private property that were
a disgrace to civilization and the gov
ernment OF this town.
They destroyed valuable property
with a recklessness and relish of genu-
Inc highwaymen. hundreds of dol
lars worth of property was thus ruth
lessly made way with. There is hard
ly citizen who did not lose sume-
thing.
During this high handed and vic
ious proceeding there was not po-
liceman to be seen IN the town. There
was no secrecy on the part Of the dep
redators. They went at 1t openly,
and nCisily as though they had the
warrant of the police that they would
not be disturbed and they were not,
and not al arrest was made although
the town was virtually turned inside
out from one end to, the other. q
On the eve Of the recurring Hal
lowe'en we desire to enquire on be-
half of the law abiding part of this
city whether we will again be without
police protection from the hoodlum
element, and therefore whether citi-
zens will need to arm themselves and
stand guard over their property,
In lieu of the protection they have
paid for and have right to expect
from the officers of the law? To be
forewarned you know is to be fore
armed, and we know some people who
interd to shoot il they have to. X.

popular candidates spoken of for

DENIES THE STORIES.
President Weir of Conference
Seminary Heard.
Takes His Pen in Hand to Say That
jealousy Has Started Many Foolish
and False Stories - Some of the
Things Which Have Not Been Done.

The following letter from Presi-
dent Weir, of the Bucknannon Sem.
mary, has been received here by one
OF his friends who wrote to learn
the facts about the alleged row.
racket and rumpus which has been
kicked up there recently:
Some one for sensational purposes
sent from here q statement like the
one which you refer to, to one or two
other papers. The thing has alb
surdity on the face of it.
/. No appeal has been made to
to Conference. Conference adjudi-
Gates as rule Ladies Halla.!
,. No one has been burned in
effigy.
3. Miss Post did not retire as
stated in the clipping. She went by
permission of the faculty to teach a
school through the winter. A num-
Der do this every fall. Miss Post
has been for several years here and
went out every fall This is the
reason given and recorded.
4. No one has been summoned
before the faculty for such offence.
3. No one has been expelled from
the Seminary for two years.
6. The clipping says According
to the story. 1t is about so--a
story.
Now some objection was taken by
few girls and boys who want to
run together, to a rule made by me
mot the Preceptress limiting the
mingling of the sexes. To say that
the boys and girls are forbidden to
speak is simply ludicrous.
Some people are jealous OF the
great success of our Seminary and
will write with responsibility and
a great many foolish and false sto-
ries. But we go on forever
Cordially.
JOHN WEIR.
AS stated in the New DOMINION
at the time the story was published.
the statements denied by Dr. Weir
were gathered from letters written
by Seminary students to University
students. These statements were
not authoritative, and were not given
as such. They were not sent out
from the Seminary by persons zeal.
GUS of the institution. but by stu
dents who very probably exagger
ated their troubles and represented
wholesome rules as stringent and
unreasonable. They were certainly
not published here because any one
is jealous of the great success of
the Seminary" but because of the
sympathetic interest the people of
one school town have in the affairs
of another school town. They were
certainly not published to injure the
Seminary, which, after the Unlver-
sity, is probably the biggest and
best institution in the state.
No one was burned in effigv,
but it is fact that someone was
hanged in effigy from one OF the
windows, and that the figure re
manned there for several hours Mon
day morning.
Probably no appeal ever reached
Conference, but when DR.. Weir re
turned from that meeting, he inter
preted, the rules that had been
made in a way that seemed to the
students to place the situation in
an entirely different light.
