Cut His Thumb OFT.

On last Saturday morning while
Mr. Andy Pufinbarger, who lives
near town, was splitting wood here,
he cut the thumb of his left hand
off clip and clean, on the bias, near
the first joint.
While the cut was very nicely
made it was not exactly according
to the principals of surgery so DR..
Fox had to remove little more Of
the bone to give the stub proper
shape.
y Andy said he had split cords and
cords of wood by setting his thumb
upon the stick TO make it stand
straight while he hit it with the
ak, and he never had cut his thumb
off before. This one time the ak
handle caught against something,
changing the course of the ak, and
off came the thumb.
Andy won't be able to work for
sometime. and its pity too, for he
has a large family depending on
his daily labor.
If a stick of wood will not stand
alone while you split it, don't take
YOUR thumb to the stick but take
both hands to the AK and hit it a
good enc along side.

A Sad Occurrence.

' The numerous Highland friends
Of Mr. and Mrs John Porter, OF the
Palmer House, at Staunton, are IN
deep sympathy with them because
of the tragic death of their little
daughter, Mary, four years DID,
which occurred last Sunday even
ing. =.
On Saturday at noon. while Mr.
and Mrs Porter, and most OF The
guests were at dinner, the sweet,
little girl, who had become a gener-
al favorite among the guests of the
hotel, was heard to scream, as II IN
great agony or fright, and upon be-
ing found in an adjoining room, it
was seen that her clothing was on
fire. As quickly as it could be done
her father smothered out the flames,
and in doing so badly burned his
hands; and at the time it was
thought that, although the injury
to the child was bad enough and
very painful, yet it was not consld-
cred as being of a decidedly danger
GUS character, and the grieved par
ents entertained hopes that in a
short while their little girl would
be we'll again. But these fond
hopes were not to be realized for
in a few hours the Little sufferer
grew rapidly worse and died.
Upon Investigation it was found
that little Mary and her brother
several years older, the only re-
naming child, were playing with
matches and a candle, i'll which
manner the little ones dress caught
fire and was the means OF bringing
so much sadness into this home,/

Harper Beverage Seriously kurt.

Harper Beverage Seriously hurt.
Harper Beverage, sober and in
dnstrious young man, of the Strait
Creek neighborhood, who has been
working as a woodsman for several
months, for Mr. Hoover, in the Dur
bin section. on last Friday, came
near losing his life by being caught
by a falling tree. Three or four
trees were being felled near HIM at
the same time, and one OK them
which would have naturally gone
in another direction had it's course
changed by another tree and, with
out warning, came down upon him.
= One of his legs was caught un-
der it causing badly fractured
and splntered break at the thigh,
the boue being so terribly mashed
that it was thought at FIRST, by the
three physicians who attended him.
that the leg would have to be am
putated.
We are Informed that Harper's
earnest protest against any such
action deferred the matter until
Saturday, when it was found by
more thorough examination that
there was a chance to save the
limb without amputation. Accord
ingly the necessary surgical treat
ment was given it, and latest re-
ports from the physicians who
have the case in charge are quite
favorable indeed, and it is hoped
that he will yet, before many
months have passed, stand again
upon two practically sound legs.
Harper is being kindly cared for
ard every attention possible is be-
ing given him. Mr. Hoover, for
whom he was working. had him re.
moved from the camp III the woods
to his own home near Durbin.

FAVOR GOLD STANDARD
Report OF the French Com
mission on Question

PARIS, August 2S.-The report OF
the French commission appointed tc
confer with the United STATES None
tary Exchange commissioners has
been delivered to Embassador Porter.
1t contains a note from foreign Min
lister Del Case saying France is not
prepared to express binding conclu-
sicns until she has consulted with the
powers.
The report indorscs the principle
Of a gold standard for China and
ether silver-using countries, but ii
points out that the plan is positive
only under judicious control of the
coinage by the government and the
creation of an adequate gold reserve.
1t fayors a coinage ratio for the
Orient, fixing the face value OF silver
slightly above its bullion value, SINH
Lar to the American system in the
Philippines. The French commission
makes reservations upon the proposed
regular purchases of silver. on the
ground that it is impossible to forsac
the country's need for subsidiary and
colonial coinage.
Semi-official advices from Russia in
dictate that the commission appointed
by Finance Minister White has made
a similar conclusion.
The French and Russians considered
it preferable to establish a uniform
system in China by beginning on {.
silver basis and afterward raising it
to a fixed gold value, than to begin
on a gold standard Immediately.

EDUCATION IS IMPERATIVE
Prof. Moses OF Philippine
Commission, So Thinks

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA,
August 2S.-Our position in the Phil
ippines is such that if education
brings rebellion and war, we are oblig-
eli to insist on education. We have TO
alternative. AS Americans we are
committed by cur form Of government
and the traditional purposes of our
society to stand for education not
only here between the shores cf the
Atlantic and Pacific, but on every
shore that lies under the authority of
this nation, If war comes as a con-
sequence of education, we are obliged
20 accept it, and by the grace of God,
and the devotion of the army, to make
the best of it. Even wal is better
than peace that can be maintained
only by ignorance.
This was the keynote of the address
made by Bernard Moses at a large uni
gersity meeting here today.
In lucid terms Mr.. Moses who, as
secretary of the public educational sys-
1em for the new possessions, gave
4 graphic description of what had
Deen accomplished and outlined a
pTophesy of what the future mas in
store for the islands as far as the
enlightenment of inhabitants is con-
cerned.
The meeting was in honor of Prof.
Moses, who has not appeared before
the students since his departure for
the PHILIPPINES just after his appoint
ment as a member Of the Philippine
Commission in April, 1900.

THE GIROUX CONSOLIDATED
Big Property Being Develoded
by d Big Company

The properties which have passed
into the hands Of the big Giroux Con
solidated Mines company in this camp
include some that have an interesting
history, and in congratIlating them
saves upon the fact that another rich
corporation, with a capitalization OF
$3.50. GOO, has cast its lot with uz,
and by its efforts will hep to advertise
Ely's mineral riches over the world.
the people of this camp should not fail
to give due credit to r. A. Riepe. who.
instead of playing the part of a dog
in the Manager, gave freely of bis hold
iHgs to the men who inaugurated this
enterprise, and at their W price
conveyed to them the ground they
wanted at a time when the infantile
enterprise needed encouragement.
That ground is now the scene of the
greatest activity in the giant COM
pany's large holdings and on it has
been expended large sums of money
ia development work, machinery. etc.
the result being a splendid testimon-
ial to the intelligence and ability Of
the men who planned the undertaking.
For in the deepest working in the
camp ore is being taken out that
proves beyond question all the claims
which have been made regarding EIy's
vast copper deposits.
Another thing for which the camp
has reason to be thankful is the fact
that tEe organization of the new COM
1env has given US a man to give his
personal attention to the develop
e7t Of these great properties, who
sta@ds second to none in point OF
ability and experience in p D min
ing. If, indeed, he has an equal among

Mines company. fully satisfied that at
