The death Of Pope Leo Kill. will
remove from earth one of the world s
most remarkable men and one of the
greatest characters Of the Roman
Catholic church.
Leo has lived far beyond the age
allotted to man: having celebrated bis
93rd birthday in March last.
As the head Of a great church and
the keeper Of sacred trusts coming
down through the ages. he has shown
himself the equal of any OF his Illus
tr;ous predecessors.
His wonderful physical endurance
has equaled his executive ability.
During the long heurs succeeding the
severe attack of pneumonia Friday,
he was fully conscious when awake
add made all preparations for his
death with calmness and clearness
that were truly remarkable. As the
soft light of dawn penetrated into
the room this morning the pontiff
whispered to his devoted physician
that he desired the shutters Of the
windows to be opened, saving:
Il wish to see once more, perhaps
for the last time, the rays Of the
sum-
Then with bis usual calmness and
though scarcely able to speak audibly
be said be knew bis time had come
and he was ready to appear before the
e1blime tribunal with full trust in
the divine mercy.

Eight persons lie dead and thirty
i've are wounded as the result of Sun
day nights tragedy at Louisville.
Several OF the injured will probably
die.
The roll of the killed and injured is
SO appalling that regret and COM
miSeration for the victims and their
families are the first feelings that it
evokes. But the first duty of every
law-abiding citizen in such a crisis is
to uphold the agents of government.
We may be sure that the members Of
the militia had no very great love of
their work when they we're called up
on to protect the Jail. They had far
less sympathy undoubtedly for the
terrified prisoners within than for the
raging mob without, but they recog-
nized the obligations of their Office,
and protected not the Jail and its in.
mates only but the law of the land,
whose maintenance is absolutely nee
tsary to the security Of every citizen.
Some question has been raised as to
which OF the contending forces was re-
sponsible for the first discharge of
arms. There can be no question, how
ever, but that the asSailants of the
militiamen were breaking the law and
engaging in a criminal enterprise.
They thus forfeited the right to act as
judges of the conduct Of their op-
ponentS, and if the latter made any
errors the blame must still rest with
the instlgators of riot and bloodshed.
On the other hand the state troops de-
serve the strongest commentator for
their resolution. Whatever may have
been done by individuals among them
We can only treat of the situation as
whole. and it must be remembered
that if nice questions of judgment are
proposed there was never serious riot
yet in which the representatives of
the law were not accused of mistakes
OF one kind or other. That is the un.
failing resort of anarchy, which pro-
ceeds itself from the grossesu error
and claims unlimited license even
while it demands from others a strict
observance of all laws and ordinances
and an infallible wisdom.
1t would be grave omission If in
this connection we should fail to rank
on the side of anarchv those persons
who have been justifying lynching,
and who can now see in this Evans
vile affair the full flower of their
perniciouS doctrine. Or shall we say
that the flower is not fully blown as
yet but only partly opened? That the
perfect bloom must wait till the race
war in its widest sense is a reality
and white men are sIaughtering
negroes in a wild campaign of EXTERN
ination? This is the end toward
which some of the apologies that we
have heard of late would lead. apollo
gies, we may add, which are derived
from the crudest conceptions of law,
of morals and of the duties of citizen

In a matter SO serious as the Evans
vile riot it is useless to conceal facts
or mince words. The plain truth is
that a comparatively few lawbreakers
and Law defilers brought disgrace
upon that city and the state of In
diana. and the good citizens are to
blame for not having made themselves
felt sooner and more effectively in
favor of law and order.

We desire in this way to extend our
heartfelt thanks to the many friends
and neighbors who so kindly assisted

thanks for the beautiful tribute pre-
sented by you, and say that your kind
ness shall not be forgotten.

There is more railroad excitement in

the Wabash company and the condition
Of things At Glcnville, where all work

given the people there renewed hope that
the road may yet be built through Wes-
ton. Unless the Glenville people recedc
from their present position the road win
likely leave the Little Kanawha at the
mouth of Leading Creek and in that
event it will pass through this town.

HOTEL
METROPOLITAN UNDERTAKING Ex-
TEHsIvE MODERN AND PRO
GRESSES IMPROVEMENTS.
Costly Facilities for the Convenience Of
the Patrons Of the Hotel Are Being
Installed by Manager Nc
Farland.

Manager Mcfarland has been making
some extensive improvements at the
Metropolitan hotel. The downstairs
room, in which the bowling alleys used
to be located. has undergone a complete
change, and it Is now used as 4 pool
and billiard room. Ten new pool and
billiard tables, of modern make, have
been installed. and the interior of the
room has been fitted up in an elaborate
manner for the deyotees Of the game.
Elegant furnishings, the completion of
new side windows which admit more
light, and myriads Of incandesccnt cleo
tric lights, transform the place into a
veritable palace Of its kind. This room
IS one Of the most complete and the
largest one Of its kind in the city.
Other Improvements are being made on
the ground floor of the hotel. Private
booths are being installed for the con.
,enience Of guests. In these booths will
be tables. chairs and desks. Electric
lights and individual telephones are to
be Installed. A private telephone sys-
TEN is being installed by the Consoli-
dated Telephone company. This system
viii connect each private booth with the
main line of the system, and the guests
Of the hotel crn transact private bust
ness with their friends and business as.
soeiates without fear OF interruption OF
any kind.
These additions will be much appre-
eiated By the patrons of this hostelry.
Manager Mcfarland certainly deserves
credit for the development OF his pro-
gessive ideas in this direction. It is
his intention to place the Metropolitan
in the front rank OF the states modern
hotels.

CLEAN THE CITY
and STOP DISEASE
Alarming Conditions Exist on Account of Filth and
Garbage, Which Should be Disposed of.
Officers Must Act at Once

There is an alarming amount Of ty-
phoid fever in Clarksburg. 1t promises
to become an epidemic, unless precau-
tionary measures are taken at once. 9th.
or diseases exist also. There are many
deaths. The physicians are doing all
they can to cope with the diseases, hut
their efforts viii be useless, unless the
people themselves help them.
Under the circumstances and condi-
tions it is the duty Of every citizen to
be CAUTIOUS in dispOsiug Of the garbage
and filth around his premises. Many
Of the back yards are flIed with poIlu-
tion. caused by decayed vegetation and
filth Of all kinds and descriptions. There
has been much carclessncss IN this re-
spect. While there is no public garbage
dumping ground or crematory, yet the
people themselves can burn this refuse
matter without danger to the city and
with but little outlay of labor.
Again, the creek banks. especially be-
tween the Elk creek bridges on Main and
Pike streets are literally covered with a
mass Of decayed matter. The banks, in
tact, from the corpening and Lowndcs
mills to the river are in the same dan
gcrous shape. There is where the dis
eases start. It is the duty of the city
authorities to see that these banks are
cleaned Of and kept clean. Too much
can not be exercised in the mat.
ter nor too much haste. It should be
done Immediately. no matter what the
cost.
The city health officer, assisted by thr
other executive officers Of the city.
should see that the central portion of
the city. especially, should be cleaned
by the citizens who are dumping all their
refuse matter in their back. yards. If
there is room enough to dump it there.
there ought to be room enough to burn
it there without danger from the FIRE.
! 50 Ear as hogs are concerned, if the
pens are kept clean, there is not half
the danger from them that there is from
these fearful cess pools and places Of
pollution Every person who has hog
pen. however, should see that it Is kept
clean.
