Bridge Whist, How to Play It--By Len.
nard Leigh. Cloth, 81. 90. Henry 7.
Coates & Company, Philadelphia $50
M. Leighs manual first appeared
last year, and having run through two
editions in that time, it now appears
In third, thoroughly, revised to keep
pace with the rapid development of
the new game. In its new form the
volume is considerably enlarged; its
scope has been extended, and it has
been modified in many particulars.
The section devoted to the declaration.
which is the most important feature
of Bridge strategy, has been amplified
and reinforced by the addition of nu-
merous illustrations and examples. The
deals are laid out by an entirely new
method which is original with the au-
thor, and distinct improvement on
the old system of setting forth the
play in horizontal lines.

MURPHY SENTENCED.
Ex-Treasurer Gets Five and n Half
Years In Prison.

Ex-Treasurer Gets Five and n Half
Years In Prison.
NEW YORK. Aug /. - Lawrence
Murphy, former treasurer of the Jour
neymen Stonecutters' union, who was
convicted a few days ago of the lar
ceny of $4,000 of the money of the I'M
ion, has been sentenced to serve five
years and six months in Sing Sing by
Justice Newburger.
The sentence followed an appeal for
Murphy on the part Of John F. Nc
Intyre, his counsel.
Judge Newburger in very temperate
manner pointed out that Murphy had
been guilty of more serious offenses
than had appeared during the trial.
While Judge Newburger was address
ing Murphy the latter broke out hyster-
ically and cried, It's Il put up job"
This outbreak followed the statement
by Judge Newburger that he had re-
ceived a letter from John Mitchell,
head of the miners union, in which
Mitchell stated that $1,000 voted for
the relief of the miners of Pennsyl-
vania by the S~tonecutters' union had
never been forwarded by Murphy.
The judge said further that Murphy
was guilty of stealing $2I. 600 in all.
which had been ~squandered in riotous
living.
Witness cold of other fines and
assessments that had been levied on
employers in Brooklyn and New York,
which in the aggregate amounted to
many thousands of dollars. This mon
ey was turned over to Murphy. and the
officers of the union said he kept ST.
900 of it, which resulted in the charge
Of larceny against him.
Members of the union called as wit
nesses admitted that the money re-
ceived from "assesSmcnts' and fines
was divided between them.
Mr.. Mcintyre set up the defense that
the money had been eXtorted from the
bosses, that the complainants had no
legal title to it and therefore Murphy
could not be prosecuted.
Judge Newburger took an opposite
view and so instructed the jury, which
rendered a verdict of guilty.

The SniIOrs, Psalm.

How many people-landsmen, at all
events-are aware that one of the
Psalms is often called the sailors
Psalm? Those who were at the open
ing of the East London 'Jack's Palace
by the prince of Wales will know it, for
the name was used there. 1t is, of
course, Psalm 107, wherein occur the
beautiful and familiar words, 'They
that go down to she sea in ships, that
do business in great waters-those see
the works of the Lord and His wonders
in the deep" The Psalm is usually
read as part of the simple services
which take place on Sunday on ships
at sea. For that reason it is known as
the sailors Psalm.-London Chronicle.

THE PRESTON COUNTY SUNDAY
SCHOOL CONVENTION.

The Preston County Sunday
School Convention held a very in
teresting and profitable convention
at Terra Alta last Wednesday and
Thursday. About fifty schools re-
ported and delegates were present
from different parts of the county.
Several prominent Sunday School
workers from outside the county
were present and took prominent
places on the program. Mrs. M. w.
Buck, of Wheeling, State Primary
superintendent had charge of the
Primary work Of the convention
which was perhaps the most inter-
esting feature of the entire program.
The people of the different churches
of Terra Alta were very hospitable
in entertaining the delegates present
and many comments were made re-
garding the cordial spirit extended
the visitors.
A commendable feature of the
work which does not seem to be
thoroughly understood is that It is
INSTRUMENTATION and not UNde-
nominational. All denominations
may come together aud plan for
Sunday School work and counsel as
to methods and plans.

elections. The decentralization
caused, no matter what the provo
cation and incentive, would have
proven as bad as submission TO the
rule of vice and ignorance. So the
law of suffrage was put on a per-
manent basis and defended by the
whites on the grounds of the pre-
servation Of society and the effici-
ency Of the local government. II
will work as we'll in the future as il
is working now. The southerner
thinks that political leads to social
equality, and that ne will never
submit to. AS for the attitude of
the negroes this remark is true. All
the blacks born in slavery times are
quiet, peaceable and industrious.
Some of them are helpless pensioners
on bounty of their former masters.
On my place there is an old couple
who do not work because they are
not able. They get food and cloth
ing from the "big house" and are
invited when they go there from
their cabins to sit down and make
themselves comfortable. These old
people were fully grown at the close
of the Civil War and did not 90
away. They said they could do
better for themselves by staying
with people who knew them and
would treat them kindly and fairly.
They have never left the premises
during all the long years since, and
now in their extreme old age and de-
crepitude they look 10 me and my
family to smooth the pathway of life
for them, clear to the end. The
old mans name is Pete, old woman's
Sal. They have some nephews who
belong to the stock born and grown
up since the Civil War and who are
as different from them as chalk diff
fers from cheese. Worthless and
unruly, whenever they pass through
the yard they are required by my
sons to lift their hats and move
quickly. The newer darkies are in
solent in manner and entirely un.
trustworthy except in some instances
where the older ones trained them.
There will be no trouble on large
scale so long as the older whites
and the negroes bred under slavery,
and those who brought up by them
live, but when the generation, white
and black, which knew slavery is
under the sod. and only those are
left who have grown up after the
war and who have become strangers
and enemies, apprehend there will
be serious difficulty. nevertheless
the white is the stronger race and
must prevail. The white people of
Alabama have nothing but kind
feelings for the negroes, and do all
thew can TO aid their personal adj
vancement making proper distinc-
tions between the mental and social
status of the two races.

Editorial Correspondence
PARKERSBURG, VIVA. Aug. II, 1908.
Dear Argus;-There are many
things here that would like to write
you, but owing to the annual Finan-
cial Statement you have on hand
this week, | know you do not have
room for it and will have to wait till
next week, but there are few things
want to say this week. We have
had splendid weather all the time
and only one day of rain, which
came at night and soon dried up
next morning. There has been but
very little sickness in camp and no.
thing serious. Our boys are all get
ting along well, with no one sick to
amount to anything. There are
about 1000 men here and it is by
far the best camp ever held in this
state. The two Companies of Re-
gulars from the famous Ninth Infan-
try, bave been of great service to US
and their fine appearance and per-
feet drill and discipline has been a
good example for our boys. Then
their officers have been drilling us
every day, separately and with their
Companies, and the result is very
apparent. The Companies of the
9th are and X and they were in the
fight at Samar where one Company
lost 4S men, and caused Gen. Jake
Smith, or "Hell Roaring Jake
Smith" as they called him; to give
his famous "kill and burn" order.
The Regiment was also in China
and saw hard service, and lost their
Colonel, Liscum, who was shot
down while trying to carry the colors
to the front himself. Lieut.. c. r.
Sherwood is acting as adjutant of
our Battalion, aud Capt Pierce
was acting Major one day. Both
are among the best officers here and
very popular. Tomorrow, Wednes-
day is Governors Day" and
large crowd is expected and a big
Review and Parade will be held.
Two Companies are ordered down
town to meet the Governor and es-
cort him to camp, and our Company
has been selected as one of the two
out of over twenty, so that we feel
highly complimented. We break
camp Friday morning, and will ar
rive at Kingwood that evening, and
as it will be late the Company will
probably be held together till next
morning and drill given about Q
O'Clock, that will be worth seeing.
We have about 81 men here and
have received the new Krag- Tor
geson guns for them. Well, more
anon. Taps are sounding and lights
out
