 The Pony team were minus Davis when the game began and for time things looked squally, the extra man gtv- ing the Reds a decided advantage. Davis arrived before the close of the first hali however, and the half ended to iT favor of the Blacks. This narrow lead was slightly increased in the second period though the game was much closer thar in the first half and the game ended | to 12 in the Blacks favors

An address by Mir. Sheppard, who is the Grand Junior Conductor of the Order of Railway Conductors. was the most en- joyable number on the program. MT. Sheppard spoke entertainingly of the work being done by the divisions of the o. R. C.. and their auxiliaries all over this country, he being in a position to know of the growth and activity of the orders. as he is now making tour of the Southern and Western States, and to
 the interested Order people among Mont

 MT. Sheppard will be remembered pleas-

 Grand Division of the O. R. c. at the Montgomery-Pensaco union meeting. The K. of P. hall, which Is one of the handsomest in Montgomery. was elabo-

 were white carnations. the flower em-

Steamer Ruth Out in May.

The new steamer Ruth now be-
ing completed at the Marietta
boat yard, will be out in the trade
about the middle of May. She is
one of the finest boats on the rlv-
er, and by far the lightest draught
drawing only fifteen inches of wa
ter. Her machinery is of the lat
est Swayne cross-compounded
make, and will enable the boat
to be one Of the most speedy as
well as light running. The boat
is about two feet wider than the
old Ruth and the hull is built of
Fir wood. She will be especially
adaptable for the excursion trade
and it is likely that she will be IN
demand this summer. While the
name has not been definitely de-
cided as yet, it is believed that
the Bay Brothers will decide to
christen her Ruth No. 2. Captain
Davis, who for so many years has
been in the command Of the Ruth,
will assume full charge of the new
craft.

TYLER Solid for Gregory.

Tyler county seems to be solid
for R. L. Gregory for State Sem
ator in this district, and as Tyler
county is entitled to it, the
chances for his nomination look
very good. Mr.. Gregory is a
brainy young man, well schooled
in politics and a staunch Repub-
lican, full of vim and progress
slveness. He has a corps OF
strong supporters at his home in
Sistersville. He has been a VIC
tim of many untruths as all can
didates are subject to, but on In
vestigation we find that they are
without foundation. The Wetzel
Republican says this county will
not stand for Gregory, but any
other Tyler county candidate will
do. Possibly Brother Smith has
got a touch of vivid magma
ton" in this matter. We can t
have it all, you know.-Smith-

Church Fairs and Bazaars.

Robert Pearson is only a grocer
with some idea of the eternal fit
ness of things. He lives in Terre
Haute, Ind, where he belongs to
church that had the notion-as
most churches have-that a
church fair, or a bazaar, or a sup
per, every day or so, was entirely
necessary to it's existence. But
Mr.. Pearson did not like the idea.
He wouldn't go to the suppers
and the fairs and the bazaars and
he lost no ccasion for telling the
other members that there was al
together too much religion in
modern methods of conducting
churches. But as he was only one
against all the rest, the festivities
went on, and the church contin-
ued to save everything belonging
to the sinners of Terre Haute eX-
cept their souls. Finally Mr..
Pearson became imbued with the
Justice of his cause to such an ex-
tent that he went to the church
with a proposition to give 2 per
cent of all his sales if the practise
were discontinued. The proposal
was accepted, and the tired fair
committees and supper commit
tees and bazaar committees are
having such sweet rest as they
never expected to have this side
of the pearly gates. But, while
Mr.. Pearson philanthropy is de-
cidedly commendable, we do not
look for lasting results, for the
reason that there never yet was
church that could stand it any
great length of time without Civ
ing a fair. In ancient days, the
height of church dissipation was
reached in the preachers annual
donation, when the members
reached down into their pork and
potato barrels and gave the good
man enough fodder to last him
through a long, cold winter, but
late years the donation goes the
other way. The church fair opens
it's capacious mouth and calls fol-
more, more, and we don't believe
it will be satisfied to lie still fol-
2 per cent. Keep your eye on
Terre Haute and you will see a
church fair there when Mr.. Pear
sons fellow members get rested
up that will be a corker.

Leases Held To Be Valid.

In 1901 G. D. Martin secured an
oil and gas lease on the farm of
j. w. Cole, near Chanute, Kansas,
and later transferred it to the
Coffeyville Vitrifed Brick and
Tile company. Later on w. S.
Dickey bought the Cole farm for
$4,000, subject TO the lease. Then
Dickey filed suit to termi-
nate the lease which was
to remain in force $50 long
as gas or oil may be found in pay
ing qualities, asserting it was
too indefinite and void, and was
against public policy. The Su-
preme court held GA gas and oil
lease is not void for uncertainty
because it's duration extends so
long as gas or oil may be found in
paying quantities. The lease is
not terminable at the lessee's OPP
ton after the production of gas
or oil, on his assertion that a we'll
is improbable when the contrary
is true. Gas and oil leases are in
a class by themselves. They are
not leases by the ordinary sense.
They are in the nature of Ii
censes, with conditional grant,
conveying the grantor's interest
in the gas or oil well, conditioned
that gas or oil is found in paying
quantities. When gas or oil is
found, the right to produce it be-
comes vested right and the les
see will be protected in exercising
it agreeably to the terms OF the
contract.

COMMENCEMENT GOWNS.
Will Not Be Long Before Some
thing of the Kind Is Needed.

Interest secondary only to the
wedding gown is displayed in the
choice of a commencement gown,
and at this time suggestions in
regard to styles and materials
may not be amiss.
The sheer fabrics, such as mtll,
dotted Swiss, organdy, batiste,
fine lawn and India linen, Paris
muslin and point d'esprit make
dainty frocks and not necessarily
expensive ones. While simplicity
characterizes the new modes, it
is in the lines only, as laces, rib
bons, founces and quantities Of
handwork appear upon all these
dresses.
Flounced and ruf1ed skirts, as
well as the straight full models
are extremely becoming to youth
full figures, and waists must have
deep berthas of trimming applied
to produce the fashionable long
shouldered effect, and there must
be a slightly dropping blouse both
back and front. The skirt is
made with a graceful sweep ex-
cept for the young miss, when it is
in the length that is most becom-
ing. White slippers and stock
ings are usually worn with the
commencement gown, although
black suede or patent leather
slippers and black silk or Isle
hose are admissible. There. will
be fourteen to graduate from our
High school next month.

Contestants then moved for rehear-
ing, their principal contention being
that the court in holding that there
was not sufficient evidence of undue In
fuence to go to the jury, did SO on the
erroneous theory that in order that
indirect or circumstantial evidence OF
undue influence (that being the char
acter of the evidence relied on) should
be submitted to the jury, IL should be
Of nature clear and convincing to the
court. whereas the court should have
proceeded on the theory that the jury
were the sole judges as to whether the
evidence was clear and convincing and
that the court should have acted on
the theory that any evidence more
than a scintilla would be sufficient.
The contestants now move a second
time for a rehearing.
II remains true. as was stated In the
decision on the first motion. that this
matter was presented with unusual
fhoroughness and earnestness Mt the
original rehearing and that to grant a
rehearlng would be to do so merely
that the case might be presented again
substantially as at that hearing In the
hope that the court might be induced
to come to different conclusion. and
We may add now that no sufficient
showing has been made that the origi'
nal decision was ''palpable error and
grievous wrong"--which is the chief
claim relied on to justify this second
motion for rehearing.
The motion Is denied.
