Bow Run Over.

Master Eddie HOltsworth had
the misfortune to get run over
by the Gates Tranfer company s
bus. on Wells street, about 6
o clock last evening. The acci-
dent happened directly in front
of the Eureka Pipe Line office
The lad was attempting to climb
into the vehicle when he fell un-
der it, one wheel passing over
his body at the waist. Aside from
a few bruises the child was unin-
iured. This should be a lesson
to other boys who are in the habit
of indulging in this dangerous
practise. 1t is almost a miracle
that young Holtsworth escaped
serious injury.

was one of the largest that has
been witnessed in the city for
many months. AS the procession
slowly wended it's way to the
cemetery the streets were lined
on either side with people, who, in
silent reverence, paid their last
tribute of respect to the memory
Of this good and noble young

LICENSE NIGHT
Council in an Adjourned Session Last Evening
Granted Large Batch Of Licenses and
Considered Other Business.

Council met in adjourned ses-
sion last evening.
Present-Mayor Kirkland, City
Clerk Hilliard; Councilmen Bell
and Ryan, First ward; Loughney,
lSecond ward; Frame, Third
ward; Brown and Kerr, Fourth
ward.
The Central Banking and Sc
curity company of West Virginia
made application for the substi-
tuition of certain city bonds in
place of others held by that com

at the recent bond drawing of
council. Application granted.
The City Clerk was instructed
to cancel a quantity of bond cou-
pons that have been paid by the
city in years past without cancel.
lation. This delinquency was re-
ported to Council by John j, Nc
Kay, one of the auditors.
The matter Of street gas lamps
was taken up by Council under
head of Street committee, and af-
ter discussion left with the City
Attorney for investigation. The
Mountain State Gas company
proposes to sell gas to the city for
street lighting purposes by meter
after June l, and this change, un-
less different and more economi-
cal burners are used, will increase
the monthly cost of each lamp
from the present fiat rate Of 81
per month to over 81. .
Council does not take kindly
to the proposition, and will look
into the franchise and bond of the
company, which do not appear on
the minutes, and have not yet
been found on file, and ascertain
the conditions of the grant. If
the proposed increase in rates
can be properly made under the
franchise it is likely that another
lighting system will be substitu-
ted. ...
Under Health committee,
Chairman Kerr reported progress
in improved plans for the dispo-
sition of garbage.

received and ordered accepted
and spread upon the minutes and

recommendation of the auditors
as to city bookkeeping be adopted

the city from former officers as
shown by the report.
1t was ordered that Water
Commissioner Cutler be reimburs-
ed the sum of $6.70, which he had
overpaid to the collector and trea-
surer as shown by the Auditors s
report.
The matter of licenses was tax
en- up and the Clerk read a peti-
ton from the Reymann Brewing
company to the effect that it had
valid lease after May l to the
premises now occupied by the
Clendenning company, at No. I'll

represented by counsel in the per-
sons Of A. B. Hunt and Lawrence

vote of 5 to l granted the appli-
cation of the applicant in posses

of the other applicant.

Wonderful Peanut,

THE peanut is about the best food that
man can eat said a physician last night.
''While l would not like to make the ex-
pertinent 1t is possible for a person to
subsist comfortably on peanuts for
months at time They contain every
essential for sustaining the body, and
will do so admirably. Five cents worth
of peanuts often have most salutary
effect on a persons health, and are bet
ter than medicine in many cases, as they
not only nourish the system, but act on
the bowels.
while 1 have seen some persons who
were made very i'll by eating peanuts, 1
am inclined to think that the state of
their health was more to blame than the
peanuts. OF course If you MUNICH the nuts
continually for half a day or eat them
hurriedly, they are apt to cause discom-
fort but thoroughly masticated and eaten
in reasonable quantities I don't see how
peanuts can injure the most delicate con-
stitution. If people would eat more pea
nuts and less lobster they--would not
complain so much of indigestion"

SOME TIMELY REMARKS
ON MARRIAGE FOR TITLE

chronique scandaleuse of the day. Per-
haps he has not yet satisfied the civil
authorities touching the authenticity of
those signatures on certain notes of hand
purporting to represent financial transac-
lions by M Max Lebaudy. We may be
quite sure, however, that the concentrat-
ed nobility of the aileyrand-Perigord
connection are in arms against the pie
beian American who has enriched them,
and that Is all we need to know
1t is no part of our purpose to decry
international marriages Against the de-
ftestable and sir lister features of this In
cident we could easily set dozen uniops
which have been as happy as the dearest
friends and relatives could wish. Cen
tlemen are the differing, perhaps,
as to details of customs, IDEAS standards,
and observances. but nevertheless the
same in all essential things-whether we
find them in England Germany, France,
Italy or Spain. The suggestion we wish
to make is that wealthy Americans will
be wise to inquire into the personal char
acter and repute of foreign suitors much
more anxiously than into the nobiiary
titles they may parade. And this relates
especially to France, where one may as
sumo any title-from comte to prince
which happens to suit his fancy, without
provoking the smallest interference by the
government

OutIawry in Colorado.

"The freedom of speech of the
press" shall not, says the first amend
ment of the Federal constitution, be
abridged In the amendment In ques-
ton Colorado is not excluded and vet
a score of men armed with shotguns,
rifles and sledge hammers, entered the
plant of the Record newspaper at Vic
tor, Colorado, on Wednesday of this
week and utterly destroyed it. The
newspaper men present were then. told
to get out of the district as fast as
they could
The Record is, or rather was, the or
gan of the union miners in the Crip1
pie Creek district, and it has never
been an extremist in strike problems.
It's last issue contained an editorial APP
peal in favor OF the ending of the
strike, on the ground that its long con
tinuance was leading to dynamite out
RACES. and to great hardships for the
miners. It voiced the belief that the
strike could not become winning and
successful movement.
The destruction of the Record plant
should be treasured up for future in
vestigation and compensation. The
courts are now powerless, and the re-
publican state officials are using
troops to crush or drive out the union
strikers. Justice will, however, secure
an inning after & while, and when she
does then the destruction of the
Record plant should be brought up,
and all the facts brought out.
If the constitutional guarantees can
be trampled underfeet in Colorado,
they can be in any other state when
ever or wherever it. suits dominating
interests to ignore them. Freedom of
the press certainly does not exist in
the Record plant at Victor, Colorado.
The silence of destruction and deporta-
tion reigns there, and Theodore Roose-
welt is president of the United States,
and Joseph H. Peabody, also repub-
lican, is governor of Colorado.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
The Old Camp MEETING.


THE warm June days remind me that
the camp meeting season approaches"
said gentleman at the Morris last night.
Summer is the most monentous sea-
son of the year IN the rural district where
the old time camp meeting is Of annual
recurrence. Families camp on the grounds
and sometimes the revival continues a
number of days. The young people look
forward TO the occasion with pleasant
anticipation. as aside from the religious
side, the social life is a feature. Several
ministers are present and the preaching
continues through the day. dinner being
served on the grounds. The camp meet
ing preachers are generally magnetic,
and much interest is manifested Num-
bers of conversions are made and though
some of the brethren have to be converted
annually, the preaching produces good
fruit
The old style camp meeting has almost
entirely passed away. Modern conditions
have effected the church along with all
other institutions. The old fashioned min
lister belong to the past and some would
disparage his worth, but though the bees
had not always alighted on his lips, he
preached the ten commandments, and car
ried a message Of peace to weary lives
and he who carries contentment into any
life has accomplished much"

Steam Turbines.

The old time power plant will soon
be a memory. The steam turbine is
supplanting 1t as rapidly as the con
struction plants can fill contracts.
What is a steam turbine? Stripped
of shop verbiage and the still more
confusing lingo of technical schools, It
may be described as a spindle or rotor
fitted with graduated rings of project
Ing blades, which, under the impact
of steam, revolve within a close-ftting
cylinder or stator. Steam enters the
turbine through nozzles or stationary
guide-blades fixed to the inner surface
of the cylinder or stator. This steam Is
directed upon the spindle or rotor. The

the ring blades, causes the spindle to
revolve. Throughout the turbine these
actions are repeated, the pressure of
the steam increasing and decreasing
as 1t passes through the alternating
rings of blades, gradually lowering to

Briefly speaking, steam makes pad

these paddle wheels deliver at the

THE LITTLE COAT.

BY James Whitcomb Riley.

Turn the pocket inside out;
See; his penknife lost to use,
Rusted shut with apple juice;
Here, with marbles. top and string,
Is his deadly devil sling
With its rubber, limp at last
As the sparrows of the past:
Observation-Disclosures straps
Bullets, and a box of caps
Not thing at all, / guess,
But betrays some waywardness-
Fen these tickets, blue and red
For the Bible-verses said
Such as this his memory kept
Jesus wept."
Here's a fishing hoolx-and-line,
Tangled up with wire and Irvine.
And dead angle worms, and some
sugs of lead and chewing gum.
Blent with scents that can but come
From the oil of rhodium.
Here-a soiled yet dainty note.
That some little sweetheart wrote.
Dottfng-'Vine grows round the stump"
And-'.My sweetest sugar lumpr'
Wrapped in this-a paddock key
Where he's filed a touch-hole-seei
And some powder in a Quill,
Corlxed up with liver pill:
And spongy little chunk

Here's the little coat, but oh!
Where is he we've censured sol
Don't you hear us calling, dear?
Back, come back, and never fear.
You mey wander where you will
Over orchard, field and hill;
You may kill the birds or do
Anything that pleases youl

About the time New York expects to
