Have You Read the Dictionary?
(HARPER's BAZAAR.)

(HARPERS BAZAAR.)
How many people are there who
pronounce any proportion Of their
words correctly, not merely by
reason of clipping and mounting,
but ignorance of good usage? We
find them everywhere, and they
lay the accent on the fist, instead
of on the second syllable of accli-
mate, for example; they pronounce
the second syllable of acous tics,
coo, instead of COW; they do not
put the accent on the last syllable
adept, as they should do; they
leave the u sound out of buoy
theypronounce duke with the sound
90, instead Of the simple long u;
emphasize the first, instead of the
second syllable of enervatlve; and
sound the town often. They are
astonished to know that pre-
cedence has the accent on the sec
ond syllable, and placard on the
last that quay is called key; that
sough is suf; that the z, instead of
the sound, is to be given in
sacrifice, and the reverse in rise !;
that subtitle and subtle are two
different words; that the last syl.
liable of tortoise is pronounced
"tis" not tus; and that it is not
the $780," but the geological
gardens where one goes to see the
chimpanzee, and not the chin
pane. 1t is quite time, we think,
when we hear one Of these takers,
for fancy work, and fancy studies
to be dropped, and little hard
work on the dictionary put in
their place.

John Billings Advice to the Choir
Singers.

DEAR Miss: This is an impor-
tant epoch in your life. The 1st
thing to make good quire singer
is to giggle little.
Put up your hair in kirl papers
every Friday mite, so ez to have it
in good shape Sunday MOI ming.
If your daddy is rich you can
buy some store hair; if he is very
rich, buy some more, and build it
high up onto your head; then git a
high priced bunnit, that runs up
very high at the high part of it,
and git the milliner to plant some
hlghgrown artifshals into the high
er part of it. This will help you to
sing high, as soprano is the high
est part.
When the tune is give out, don t
pay attenshon to it, but ask the
nearest young man what it is, and
then giggle. Giggle good eel.
Whisper to the girl next to you
that EN- Jones, which sits on the
Bird sect from the front, on the
left hand side, has her bunnit
trimmed with the same color exact
as she had last year, and then put
up yore book to your face and
giggle.
Object to every tune unless
there is solow into it for the
soprano. Golf and hem a good eel
before you begin to sing.
When you sing a solow, shake
your he'd like you was trying to
shake the artifshals off yore bun
nit, and when you come to a high
tone brace yore self back little,
twist yore he'd on one side, and
open yore mout widest on that
side, shet the eye on the same side
jest a triphel, and then put in fol
deer life.
When the preacher gifts under
hedway with his preechin, write {
note onto the blank leaf into the
fore part of yorc note book
That's what the blank leef was
made for. Git sumbodv to pass
the note to sumbody else, and yor
watch them while they read it, and
then giggle.
If anybody talks or laffs in tn,
congregation, and the preechel
takes any notice of it, that's a goot
chance for you to giggle, and 70,
ort to glggle a good eel. TIL
preacher darsent say ennything t.
you becoz you are in the quire, ant
he can't run the lneetinhouse t,
both ends without the quire. |
| you had a DO before you went t,
the quire give him the mitten
You ort to have sumbody bette
now, Don't forgit to giggle.

WATER
Was Turned Off and Glass Factory
Shut Down.
About 200 Men Thrown Out Of
Work Temporarily.

Owing to the water supply being
shut off, the Atlas Glass and Metal
Company's plant at the Junction was
compelled to cease operations yester-
day. The city water was turned on
again towards evening yesterday and
the hands resumed work. The force
was kept at work last night, but to-
day again the water was shut off and
the olant was compelled to shut down
until the water is supplied.
This throws about two hundred
hands out of work temporarily, but as
soon as it is possible for the factory to
resu me operations, the men will go to
work.
The report was current upon the
streets today that the employees of the
factory bad gone out on strike. This
report probably gained circulation
from some one who did not know the
true condition Of afraiIs.

Prefers Rather to Meet the Great
Judge Than Justice Riley and
Drinks Muriatic Acid.
There is No Hope For His Recovery-Step-
daughter Swore Out Warrant Against Him.

w. A. Rawson, residing on Cain
street, concluded last night that
he would rather meet the Great
Judge that Justice Riley and when
Constable Mitchell arrested him on a
warrant sworn out by his step.daugh-
ter, charging him with contending
with angry words to the disturbance
of the peace of the state of West vlr-
gInia, he pulled out vial of muratic
acid and drained it. 1t was no time
until he was unconscious. The con.
stable managed to get him to the jail
and later he was taken to Kessler hos
pital.
The incident happened about 6
o'clock. 1t appears that Rawson is in
fatuated with his step-daughter. He
follows her around and will n6r-allow
her to have company. The woman
folk gave him s15 yesterday to leave,
he having agreed to leave for that
amount but after he received the
money he would not go. In the after
noon he cursed the girl on the street
and stood in front of the Clarksburg
Produce company's store, waiting for
her to to come out. The authorities
were notified and she was taken to
Squire Riley's office, where she swore
out the warrant.
his condition today was about the
same as that of last evening. He lies
in a comatose state and the doctors at
the hospital say there is absolutely no
hope for his recovery and his death is
expected at any moment.

After Lengthy Confab They Leave

Street Superintendent and
Committee.
City Attorney Reports UnfavorabIy Upon prof
fered Deeds to Streets and Alleys
Other City Matters

At Friday nights meeting of the
City Council, the members present
were Mayor Grille, Clerk Alexander,
and Councllmen keenan,, Hurst, VIII.
liams, Moore, Hart, Lewis and Long.
The minutes of the previous meet
ing were read and approved.
Chairman Moore of the street COM
mittee reported that he had arranged
with Mr.. Leonard, manager of the
street car company, to go over the en-
tire line, when the weather opens, for
the purpose of making all necessary
street repairs.
Councilman Hart moved that the
Clarkshurg Gas Company be notified
to take out the lights at the Mayors
Office and council chamber and that
the Electric Light Company be re-
quested to put in 10 electric lights un-
der the meter system. The motion
carried.
A petition, signed by thirteen busi-
ness citizens on Pike and Third streets
asking for the removal of the temper
ary structure recently built on the
pavement along the Lippincott prop
erty, where building is being erected,
was presented to the council. Coun-
Gilman Williams moved it be laid on
the table. Councilman Moore moved
to amend the motion by declaring it a
nuisance and ordering 1t abated.
Councilman Hart suggested that the
Mayor be instructed to notify the
superintendent of the building to
build a board sidewalk around the
temporary structure. He called at
tention to the several distractions Of
similar kind in the city and asked
for the same treatment to all.
Councilman Moore called attention
to the fact that there was to be no
basement, and, therefore, they would
not need the space. He called atten-
tion also to the fact that the parties
had plenty Of property to dress the
stone. Besides he deemed it viola.
tion of the fire ordinance.
Councilman Williams spoke In favor
of letting the building remain.
Councilman Hurst favored removal
of the building.
Mr.. keenan, thought 1t would be
better to move the building in little.
Mr.. Williams Withdrew his motion
to lay the petition on the table. He
agreed with Mr.. Hart that it would
be,proper TO move the building in
some and build board pavement
around it. The matter was finally re.
ferred to the street commissioner and
street committee.
