SION VI hifeT as source Oh supply.
To the Editor Of the New DOMINION.
In view Of the general interest
manifested as result OF recent
reference in your columns to the
quality of Cheat river water, / VEN
ture brief statement concerning the
situation as it is at present
The only source Of pollution that
need be considered is that incident to
the pulp industry. Two factors of
vital Importance IN the manufacture
OF pulp and paper are. plentiful
supply of clean water for washing
purposes, aud ready means OF dis
poss.l of such wash water and OF the
large volumes of waste liquors incl-
dent to the processes employed. These
pulp liquofs are strongly impreguated
with sulphurous acid, lime salts and
dissolved wood products, and theis
rlddance has become very serious
problem 10 European countries, where
the discharge OF such into streams is
generally prohibited. In Germany,
the practice has been followed OF run
ming the waste liquors off into ponds,
where the water gradually seaks into
the earth However, on account OF
the residual sludge, the very disagree
able odors evolved, and the general
contamination OF wells, this pro
ceduIe does mol afford wholly satls-
factory solution Of the problem. In
the United States. until recently at
least, the custom OF discharging the
waste liquors into the water courses
has been inyariable. 1t is assumed
that such discharge does not involve
any very serious pollution when the
size Of the stream is sufficient to af-
ford a dilution of about fifteen I'M
dred times. That d much spaaller
diluton than this can prove destruc-
tive to Ssh life, there Is strong evil
dence 10 the present condition OF both
the Upper Cheat aad the Upper Potu-
mac, as sportsmen have recently
found to their sorrow.
II should not be inferred, however,
that the eon6ition' OF Cheat ,ter 10
the Vicinity Of Mt. Chateau is The
same or anything like as bad as 1t is
just below Parsons. Analyses Of sam
pies taken last summer from both To-
calities show the former TO he In
unitely superior in quality and quite
free FROM sulphurous acid, the expla
nation, 81 course, teing in the subse-
yuent dilutiOn and opportunities for
LIBERALIZATION and oxidation during
the flow from the latter point.
without further Investigation 1t
would not be proper 10 say that the
present deteriorated quality Of Lower

render rs use withouo treatment, as

WARM BAR MEETING.
Attorneys Wrangled Oyor Abstracting
Question for Three Hours.

A meeting of the Monongalia Bar
Association YVES held Saturday after
noon from two O'Clock until five. A
short meeting was held 10 the MORN
ing, but adjourned for dinner. The
question which caused practically all
OF the discussion was the price for
which the West Virginia AbstractiDg
Company does or will do work in th, ir
line. An agreement was finally reach
ed after the expenditure Of a great
deal Of time and energy In debate.
The result is ef no Interest to the pub
lie as the citizen will have to pay the
same price for his abstracting as be-
fore. The meeting itself was very
interesting because OF the lively tilts
which occurred between some OF the
attorneys NJ Pope TheodoroG was
made member of the association.

WEST VIRGINIA Won.
East Liberty Defeated in Game
Friday Night.

Too Mary Fouls to Please the Attend
ants-Score was 81 70 l2-yfsitorl
at Times Showed up Very strong
other Games Scheduled.
| A big crowd saw the basket bal
game on Friday evening in the Ar
mery. The score was announced al
the close OF the game was 80 to Il
in favor Of West Virginia. East
Liberty played what seemed to be
good game and their kicking was
at times as fine as usually done by
foot bail team.
Probably half of the people pres
ent knew nothing Of the game ex
cept the fact that .yhen the ball was
thrown into the basket it counted
one point. Then they yelled. The
Marilla Glass factory sent in a
bunch of rooters for the visiting
team. This made the students sore
and they tried to root down the
glass workers. This resulted in a
din of huge proportions.
At times the game resembled the
event taking place at Columbus last
in which the University was inter
tested. There was good natured
race between Printz and the umpire
Oh the other side as to which could
call the greater number of fouls.
AS a result they call simultaneously
several times and both sides had a
chance to make goal.
While the fouls were all right the
audience did not appreciate it as
they want action all the time. Taylor
and Gronniger played the best game
for the locals. The visitors at times
put up pretty game and their pass
ing was applauded.
The next game is with Allegheny
college at Meadsville John Purip-
ton is manager OF tire Varsity team.
Other games will be play ed at home
during the season. The line up last
night:

CURES WITHOUT STOMACH DOSING
Hyomei Cures Catarrh by Simple
Breathing. j. NJ. Reed Refunds
Money If IL Fails to Cure.

A long stride toward solving the
mystery of curing catarrh was taken
with the discovery Of Hyomei. In
fact, the percentage of cures by this
treatment proves it equal to the tinal
tests.
The folly Of taking medicine into
the stomach to cure catarrh Of the
nose, throat and lungs has been real
ICED by physicians, but not until Hyo-
mel was known, had they practical
method that would obviate stomach
dragging.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs
but 81, and consists Of a neat pocket
inhaler that can be used anywhere
without attracting attention, a med
icine draper and bottle of Hyomei.
Breathing Hyomei through the in
haler, every particle of air that enters
the nose, throat and lungs, is charg
cd with healing balsam that soothes
and allays all irritation, kills the ca
tarrhal germs and enriches the blood
with additional ozone.
j. M. Reed has SO much faith In
the power OF Hyomei to cure catarrh,
that he is selling it under his persona
guarantee to refund the money II II
does not give positive relief.

STRA6ss LIKES SKAr.


He Has Written 400 Musical Compost
tions Siace lie Began to Compose
FIRST Public Performance : Other
Interesting Matters About Great
Composer.
The year 1880 when Strauss was
only l6 years OF age, witnessed the
first performance in public OF any of
bis compositions. They were three
songs interpreted by Fri. Meyenheim.
La the following year String Quar-
tet was performed by the Benno Wal
ter Quartet and shortly afterwards
Herman Levi produced his symphony
in ID. major. 1t was this work which
drew the attention OF the entire mu-
steal world to the l6 year old composer
aud the possibilities OF his future Gre
alive powers. 10 the winter OF 1885
an Overture In @ minor was produced
by the Berlin Philharmonic Orches-
ira and later the same winter Hans
Won Bulow who was then director OF
the Meiningen Orchestra produced his
Serenade, which was written for
wind instruments.
/ This work could hardly have been
produced under better auspices for the
main attributes of this orchestra has
always been found in the excellence of
its wind instruments. Ven Bulow
took great fancy to this Serenade
and showed his practical interest in
young Strauss by performing it at
many concerts during the tours Of the
Melningen Orchestra.
Since then Strauss has steadily pur-
sued his course till his compositions
number about four hundred, nearly
all Of which are published. They
include songs fo- male aud female
voices, piano pieces, Sonates, Con-
certos, Symphonies Tone Poems, On
eras and Overtures.
Richard Strauss makes sketches OF
his compositions while walking in the
little Peasant village Markworsteln in
the Bavarian Alps where he has fine
villa and there he spends his yaea-
ton.
His only and principal recreation is

chosen friends social game OF Skat.
+ Richard Strauss gives the impress
sion Of man OF might and yet ex-
tremely modest. He refrains from
speaking OF himself or his doings I'M
less indueed to do so, but goes aboat
his work with an aleftness and an
earnestness that Is eminently charac-
teristic of strength of purpose. He

Gently conducted fourteen different
concerts 10 as many days in the same
number of towns, with rehearsal for
each concert, which usually lasted
from three to four hours. AT one of
these fehearsals after going through
the score Of "Ein Heldenlenen' he
told a friend that the composition Of
this work, his latest great tone poem,
occupied him one year and one half
from start to finish and that the vio-
lin solo in IL is a portrait of bis wife.

Briefly, the situation was this;
Brock and Courtney purchased a
fifteen acre track ofcoal from Henry
Dusenberry for 1850. The track
was surrounded by the Cochran
field, and was important to Brock
and Courtney in securing an exit to

Cochran Company wanted it, and
through their attorney, Col. Frazer,
bought it of George Dusenberry for
$500.
Both Henry and George Dusenber-
