The TYLER County Star gives two

The Tyler County Star gives two
reasons why our people should sup
port Mr.. Hill for Safe Senator. Rea
son No TITS none of the Reviews
business. 2ndly: Hill always
represents the whole county"
It's our business to prevent the
nominations of a man to any office
who will oppose any legislation,
good or bad, the people of Sister
Vile want. We live In Sis'ersville
and always expect to do so, there
fore 1t Is our business to use our
best efforts and whatever influence
we may have to have men elected
who will treat as fairly and do what
we want done.
The fact that the Star favors
Hills election is all the evidence
we want to sustain the charge that
Hill, If elected, will oppose every
thing our people want done. The
Star bolted r. L, Gregory's noml-
nation the last election simply be-
cause he lives here. The Star Will
oppose any and everything from or
Sistersville. This Is so well
known 1t requires no evidence to
sustain our charges.
We do know as matter OF his
tory that Mr.. Hill was In the legis-
lature and would do nothing for
Slstersville. In fact he did not do
anything for anybody. His seat
might as we'll have been vacant, II
he did anything, good or bad. the
Star can na.ae 1t. We challenge
that paper to name a single thing
Hill did out side of drawing his
salaty. We want some legislation
the coming meeting of the legisla-
ture. Hill will oppose anything
we propose with all the power
that Is In him.
We challenge Mr.. Hill to 60 GU
record right now. Do you favor
and will you pledge your best et-
forts IL nominated and elected to
have Sistersvllle AM Garry Oven
made an independent school dis
trlci? We dare him to answer this
We know he will not do SO. We
know he would not vote for such
an act, the Star knows 1t or 1t
would bolt him as 1t did Gregory
and Dovenor or anybody else who
will treat our people fair and
square. Its time for the voters OF
this district to give such men as
Hill to understand If he wants an
Office in his county he will have to
treat US fair or he wont be elect.
ed. Hill Is against Sistersville
tooth and toe nail and that's all

The Star says Its none OF our
business If Long Is candidate and
and we are kindly requested to dry
up aud let the old, faded, dead and
decaying Star run politics In this
county all by Its sweet old self
Long has about as much chance OF
being elected sheriff as the editor
of Star has of getting harp for
being a truthful man. Long was
elected assessor of our county.
When he was sworn into Office, the
attorney for the Standard Oh Co,
came on from New York to Wis 1t
Mr.. Assessor. He did visit hi n.
Mr.. Assessor made his report of the
Standard OH company's property
In Tyler county.So we'll pleased was
the Standard OH Co.'S, attorney
with Mr.Long's valuation that com
pary gave him very nice position
and we understand he still holds
a fat job for the Standard. It's the
opinion of the taxpayers of Tyler
County that an assessor In the EN-
ployment of the Standard OH Com
pany Is not exactly the kind of a
man they want as an assesst or as
a sheriff. They think one term OF
an officer that will do such thing
Is enough for them, The whole as
sessmen! against the Standard on
Co. which includes the Carter on
Co., the South Penn Oil Co., the
Eureka Pipe Line Company and
the Mountain State Company, isn't
In the aggregate as much as the
Carter Oh Co., alone paid for prop
erty here 1t has made millions OF
dollars out of.
Does any sane man think for a
moment the Standard Oil Co. would
give fat position to an assessor OF
a county who was assessing Its
property at a fair valuation! If
there isany they are woefully ig,
uorant of the way the Standard
OIL Company does business. l.
Is not rewarding men who
make 1t pay Its just taxes, 1t has
no use for such officers. Mr.. Long
may be doing what he believes is
absolutely honest, but 1t Is a bad
thing for politician to do. PEG
pie who know the Standard Oh Co.
know Mr.. Long holds his position
with that company because he has
made small assessment for taxs-
ton In this county. A man who
can be Influenced by the Standard
as Long has been Is not a fit man
to be elected sheriff. Its asking
the people to endorse this action In
their assessor aud the people will
not do 1t. Mr.. Long may think he
is cutting a wide swath but be will
find out the voters of Tyler County
will not endorse his actions as
County assessor. Think of man
stopping work for the Standard on
Co., to assess Its property. Loug
does that very thing and has all
his term. Do you want him for
Sheriff?

TIE SOCIAL WORLD
Mrs. Roosevelt's Guests at
the White House.
HOME WEDDINGS TODAY
MISS GILMAN AND MISS CLARK
WERE MARRIED.
Noon Ceremonies at Which Only Small
Companies Were Present
Personals.

Mrs. Roosevelt's guests yesterday after
noon thronged the east room, while q
thoroughly artistic performance by the
Arbos Quartet of Boston delighted all. The
mistress of the White House received at
the green parlor entrance Of the east room,
with Major McCauley in attendance to
make the presentations. She is looking
unusually well after her rest from social
duties, and was stylishly gowned in black
and white lace and silk. The arrival Of
Prince Pu Lun and the Chinese minister
with members of both the suite of the
former and of the legation created a
noticeable stir. The party was escorted by
Col Symons to places at the front row Of
chairs
President Roosevelt passed through the
east room before the music commenced,
chatting with acquaintance along the
route, and took chair near the orchestra.
He was also with Mrs Roosevelt when the
more intimate friends Of both came back
into the green room to make their adieus
Assisting Mrs. Roosevelt were: Mrs.
Hitchcock, Mrs. Cortelyou, Mrs. Loeb. the
Misses Hitchcock, Mrs. Cowles, Miss Hag-
ner and others. their duties really COM
mencing in the state dining room after the
music, where tea, punch and cakes were
passed and most sociable and informal
air prevailed
The display Of feminine finery was, as
might be expected, brilliantly satisfactory.
Countess Cassini contributed most in
teresting, even If a somber note, when
she arrived a trifle late, gowned in the be-
coming black of court mourning. Another
notable guest was Mrs. Mckee, daughter
of the late President Harrison, and for q
while most admired White House hostess.
Mrs. Mckee, who came in with Mrs. Ar
thur Lee, with whom she is staying. and
Mrs. Elkins, was handsomely gowned in
white lace, with which she wore a lace hat.
The following musical program was rem
dered:

At the beginning Of the nineteenth
century the Bible was current I'm some
forty languages-today in some 400.
1t In necessary to use sixty different
sets OF types to print In these many
tongues, while some fifty languages
require to be printed in more charac-
ters than one TO be legible to all races
and crceds in that particular country.
Again. to translate the Bible into one
foreign tongue is IN itself d work OF
more than n lifetime very often. What
must be then the labor required to
learn some barbarlc tongue which has
no writing. no characters or alphabet
OF its own and to supply all def
ciencies before the task of translation
can begin? Moreover. the Biblical
metaphors and SMILES have to be aI-
tered and made comprehensiblc to un-
tutored minds. One translator, Henry
Mott by name. spent twenty years In
Tahiti to learn the language, after
which he spent another twenty years
in translating the book into the Ia
hitnn tonguc.--London Chronicle.

THE LADIES, TAILOR.

He Flourished In France Three Gem
turtles Ago.
The ladies' tailor does not belong to
this century or to the last; 800 years
back he fiourlshed in France. The
court beauties employed him during
the reign of the last OF the valois.
Nine. de Sevigne gives an elaborate de-
scription In one OF her letters Of q
gown made for Nine. de Montespan
and mentions the name OF the tailor
Langlee, the son OF one Of the serv-
ants In the household OF Anne OF Aus
tria. Indeed, women were not allowed
In those days to enter into competition
with men In the production Of outer
garments, even for their own sex. It
was Louis XIV. who looked favorably
on woman's work for her own sex
and granted letters patent to the semp-
stresses to form themselves into cor
poration, though 1t was not made easy
for them, and they only, after all,
made up ladies' own materials, even
rs far back as that. BY the aid OF the
poupecs which went the round OF soci-

Roy found favor with the bellies In
the beginning OF the seventeenth CEN

A sinnulnr coincid ence.

HINooo fANATIcisM.


EGMhofm OF india
Self inflicted torture by Hindoo zeal
OTIS is common in India One man will
lie upon his back, place piece Of soil
upon his lower lip, plant In 1t mus
tard seed and not rise from his posi-
ton until the seed has become q plant
of size. Another will make his couch
upon spikes; third walk with his
boots filed with similar delights; yet
another keeps his hands clinched un-
til the nails grow through his palms
and out at the back of his hands, while
others distort their legs and arms into
atrophy. The extent to which Hindoo
fanaticism will go, or native belief ex-
tend. was shown by a case reported In
the Civil and Military Gazette Of La
hore year or so ago. The natives OF
Trevandrum were found worshiping as
q god come among men a man who
had taken up his residence under a
tree on the bank of a river. For the
first week or so he ate q piantain and
drank some milk twice or thrice
week. Then he gradually enlarged the
intervals. till after three or four
months he took no food at all, but
passed his time huddled before fire,
seeing no one, hearing no one. Ex-
posed to cold and wet, to heat and
dust. he sat thus without food for
three years. ''wrapt in divine con-
temptation" At the end Of the three
years he died. never having spoken to.
or needed, soul from the time he
first appeared until the spirit passed
from his body.
