Mrs. Walter L. Webb is IN Union

event is looked forward to with a
great deal of interest by The Episco-

The circumstances Of Dr.. Lloyd 8
calling to the Uniontown church are
rathe- peculiar He is a Welcnman,
man OF great magnetism and power
as an orator He came to UnionGown
last winter from Ohio to conduct a
mission. His influence for good was
so great, that the people became very
much attached to him. More out Of
curiosity than with earnest intentions
the church officers asked him one day
how much salary it would requIr to
persuade him TO resign his charge 10
an Ohio City and come to Uniontown
as their regular preacher He replied
rather lightly about S3000.n The
Uniontown people had been paying
their rector $1,000.
The bare possibility OF getting Dr..
Lloyd for their rector so pleased the
people at Uniontown that the Official
board set out at once to see If the
money could be raised. To the sur
PRISE Of both pastor and people the
money was raised, In very few
weeks arrangements were made for
the formal installation which occurs
this evening,

NEED OF TIRE PROTECTION
Emphasized by SUNDAY Night incident
Better Facilities Needed in the
City to Control Fires.

The absolute necessity for some sort
Of improvement in MorgantoWn's fire
fighting facilities was forcibly empha
sised the other night when fire brok-
out In the Meade house. 1t was not
late in the evening, but the number
Of men who responded to the alarm
was very small. OF those who turned
out, small per cent got hold of the
reels and ladder wagon, and started
off UP the High street hill at good
pace. Most Of the crowd, however,
followed leisurely along on the side
walks, many Of them graspipg the
luxury of street car which happened
to be going in the direction OF the
fire. Before Front street was reached,
the men who had lugged the reels up
the hill were completely tagged, aud
would have been about as much ac-
count at a flre as lot OF old women
with sprinkling- Luckily, in
this particular instance, there was no
fire to fight, but it will not always
happen that way
What the city needs is modern,
well-equipped fire department On a
small scale. A couple OF good horses
and few hired firemen would I'll the
present needs. The force and equip
ment could be increased as the con-
ditions demanded. Ofcourse it would
be unwse to do away with the volun-
teer company, which is good so far as
it goes, but its effectiveness would be
trebled if the things mentioned above
were provided. The peace and good
order OF the city could be left in the
hands of the county constables with
no less expediency than the fire pro-
lection In the hands of the volunteers.
A big police force has long since taken
the place OF the former: it is time a
substitution be made for the latter.
Another matter that should now
have more careful attention is the kind
of buildings allowed to be erected in
certain thicklY settled portions of the
city. Definite fire-limits should be
established and rlgidly adhered TO,
The outlying wards of the city are
sadly in need of some water plugs on
large and sufficient mains. In some
portions there is little or no protec-
tion whatever.
These matters should receive at
tentlon now before the big fire comes,
1t will cost no more now than it will
afterwards and somebody will have
more money to pay for it.

LET THE HEATHER RAGE
And Imagine vain thing-Rev. Sam
Bettes is Going TO the big show In
stead of to South America.

stead of to South America.
PARKERsBURG, July THE yacht,
West Virginia, belonging to Rev. Sam
Bettes arrived here Saturday night
from PIT. Pleasant, having been
towed from that place by the tow boat
Mary England The boat, which has
had several ups and downs, presents a
very good appearance. 1t is the in.
tention of Mr.. Bettes to do consider
able work on the boat here, as it is
nearing completion, he being unable
to secure many Of the things necessary
at the places where he has been. Up
to this time there are ten thousand
feet of oak timber in the boat, one
thousand feet of black Walnut, and
twenty-one hundred and fifty pounds
of nails, Three barrels of tar and
four barrels Of crude oil have been
used in soaking the timber.
Mr.. Bettes says this fall he expects
to start on a cruise around the West
Indies, and sailing up the Atlantic to
New York, and will sail from there on
the Hudson, going through
the Erie canal and the Great Lakes
and down the Mississippi to ST. Louis
in time to take ia the Worlds Fair at
that point.
The parties who expect to join him
in the South American missionary ex-
petition will assemble at that place
and will start on their cruise from
there. 1t was the intention to start
to South America from here over a
year ago, but the start has been delay
ed for various reasons. But the heath
en- can wait.

Not In Amateur Glass and Want
Money for Their Services.
The base -ball game between Sisters
vile and Morgantown scheduled to
take place here Saturday has been can
celled. The Morgantown Team failed
to organize and they are not prepared
to meet the Sisteryille nine.
1t seems that some of the players
who were looked upon as available
material have passed what they re-
gard as their amateur days, and want
money for the kind of ball they play.
There is no one here that cares to
support professional team, and un-
less some philanthropic enthusiast
comes forward with the cash, there
will be no games here at all this sum
mer. 1t is not at all likely that any
one will do this.
A proposition was made to the pros
pective members of the team that any
money made from the gate receipts
would be divided equally among them.
This would probably not amount to
the required salary of $50, per month
and so the team is not available at
