Big Mime Closed Down.

For the first time since the
mines of the Longdale Iron COM
pany in Fayette county were OPP
ened at Cliff Top thirty-two years
ago there will be an indefinite sus-
pension after this week. Satur-
day will be the last big pay day
and hundreds of old employees who
have been with the Longdale COM
pany for years will be laid off in
definitely. The mines at Cliff
Top will be closed up and the ov-
ems at Sewell allowed to become
cold for the first time. The shut
down is due to the low price of
coke and general decentralization
of the coal and iron market.

Taken to Moundsville.

New Martinsville, June 2.-Joe
Vastella and Harry Roberts, who
were convicted of burglary in the
Circuit court a few days ago, re-
ceived their sentence today, and
were taken to Moundsville. The
Judge sentenced them to eight
years in the pen, whereupon
young Vastella directed a volley
of demeaning terms to Judge Will
lis, calling him q name which re-
fected UPON his immediate ances-
try. The Judge increased his
term to ten years. He was taken
away hurting imprecations at the
Judge, attorneys and Sheriff and
swearing he would not be taken
to Moundsville alive.

Gas
Engines

How many people, when buy
ing gas engines stop to consider
complications There are few.
If they would only investigate
the different makes before decid
ing on the purchase there woulc
be fewer repair shops over the
land. A spring here and a gear
there, and loaded down with LOT
of inventions, most people say.
"That must be a good engine.
Well, they buy it. In a little
while, to keep it going, they com,
mence to tinker, and the more
time and money spent the more
she gets out of whack. Then
they realize that it takes an ex-
pert to do anything with it. Now
if they had only bought a simple
engine-one that would not run
because it did not have a lot OF
fixtures-they could have avoided
the expense and delay.
Our advice to you is not to
overlook the "Stoner" when you
are thinking of buying an engine,
as we can prove to you that it is
the simplest engine built, and we
feel satisfied that it will give you
but very little trouble. Repair
shops all hate the "Stoner," as it
gives them but little work.

AS Ash Wednesday ushers in the
prepares TO eschew the pomps and
vanities of this wicked world. Her
devotion may take the form of early
morning church and the Lenten sew
ing class, or she may choose to medi-
tate over her sins at some fashionable
health resort.
In either case, she puts aside her
frills and fiounces. and becomes a
strictly tailor-made creation. The
shirtwaists which she wears beneath
Der trim tailor suit is mannish in cut
and texture. while her stock is severe
enough to suit the standards set down
by the Pilgrim Fathers.
Her masculine admirer may be a
trifie bewildered by her sudden excess
of devotion, but he is keenly alive to
her change in dress. Lent is favorite
time for engagements, for it is then
that the young fellow with two or
three thousand a year is emboldened
to hope that the girl of his choice may
ont, after all, be too high above his
head.
Perhaps this Lenten simplicity is
a trife misleading. A visit to one of
would seem to point in that direction.
The correct shirtwaist is generally
a product of man tailors, and the
mems shirtmakers have been over
run this winter with orders for wom-
ems shirtwaists. This in spite of
the fact that one of their shirtwaists
commands very nearly as high a price
as one of the silk or cashmere matinee
waists turned out by the skillful fin
gers of a French dreSSmaker,
These manufactured shirtwaists are
handsome, although they owe their
distinction to fabric alone. The sheen
of their heavy linens rivals that of silk,
and they can compete in warmth and
durability with the wooden waistings.
AS to cut, there is little difference
between the fall and spring waists.
Both display the long shoulder seams,
slightly pouched fronts, plain backs
and sleeves a trihe bouffant over the
narrow cuffs. The spring designs
show greater eccentricity as to the
cut of the shallow yokes which deco
rate so many of the shirtwaists. The
front box-pleat is wider, and the but
tons less various.
The new mercerized waistingS show
a slight reaction against the all-white
rule which has held sway all winter.
Fine hair lines of black or color. tiny
heur de lis, horSeshoes, or other min
ute design promises to be as popular
as the dead whites. 1t is the first at

paralleled in other lines of feminine
wear. The between season hats are
mostly in a solid color-esthetic blues

waist is relieved by fancy stripe of
mixed brown and ecru. A snug fit
over the chest is insured by the mar
row Dleats which are laid on either
side of the middle pleat from the
shoulder seams down to the bust line.
The release of the goods below allows
for the slightly pointed French waist
line. The fullness of the moderately
full sleeves is fitted into the armhole
by a series of pleats which extend to
the elbow. Below this the sleeves puff
slightly over the plain cuff. The lat
ter is fastened by cuff links of white
ana brown enamel in a marquis pat
tern. The pleat down the front is at
least four inches wide and is trimmed
with four buttons of nacre.
These pearl buttons are extremely
fashionable for use on the spring shirt
waists. AS their behavior in the wash
tub is matter of some doubt they
are generally held in place by rings
and are removed before washing.
Round cuff buttons or links seem
out of favor. The more slender and
graceful marquis is the subject of the

are some particularly pleasing ones in
