A Pathetic Case.

Miss Rosalie Middleton, the blind
girl VINO lost her arm IN the wreck on
the Cumberland Valley Railroad near
Neville, January l, lett the hospital
At Chambersburg Monday and re-
turned to Overlook, near Philadel-
phia, where she Is student at a
school for the blind. The case OF
Miss Middleton has attracted more
attention than any case which has
been in the Chambersburg hospital
since It's foundation, says the Opinion.
Everywhere there was sympathy for
the unfortunate young lady, who, al
ready deprived of the very important
sense Of sight, was called upon TO lose
an arm, by the aid Of which she hoped
to be able to assume position IN life
as an instrumental musician. She is
particularly gifted in music and was,
before her accident, a skilled per-
former on the pipe organ. She is also
possessed OF beautifully sweet voice.
1t is said that Miss Middleton did
not know of the loss of her arm until
a week ago and it was left to her
teacher from Overlook to inform her
OF the result of her accident. 1t was
naturally expected that she would
view the loss as a calamity, but in
this she surprised all. 1t is said that
when she learned that her arm was off
she was silent for just moment, when
with specially sweet expression on
her pretty face, which is particularly
expressive for one that is without the
use of the eyes, she calmly remarked
Il will have my voice left"

A Marvellous Aerial Globe.

One of the attractions planned for the
ST. Louis Worlds Fair will be an aerial
globe, 700 feet high. Some idea of its
magnitude can be obtained after COM
pairing it with the popular Ferris wheel,
which is considered crude affair be-
side it. This statement is also appro-
pirate, after comparing the celebrated
Hostctter'S Stomach Bitters with the
other stomach remedies. It's so years
record of cures puts it so far in the lead
as family medicine that the others
are C nsldered crude affairs and hardly
worth a trial Then don I delay longer,
as delay is always dangerous, especially
in cases of indigestion, dyspepsia, con-
stipation, billiousness, insomnia, chills
colds or malaria, fever and ague. The
Bitters positively cures these ailments,
as thousands have voluntarily testified.
Try it and see for yourself.

He is an excellent man for the place.
DR.. D. B. Puriuton was in Wash

ment exercises of the West Virginia

A man entered the home of George

robber secured

Whilp at work in the mill Of the
West Virginia Sand Company, at

The residence of Thomas Hovermale
at Ungers Store, Morgan county, was
burned to the ground Monday night
and two year-old son WAS cremated
in the fire. The child, with four
ear.o!d brother, had been left locked
up in the house by the parents, who
were away from home. Men at a
nearby store saw flames bursting
through the house When they broke
in the doors they saw the half-con-
sumed body of the youngest child,

completely destroyed the house the
charred body of the child was recov-
cred.
A considerable sensation was caused
at Clarksburg on Tuesday by the
failure of the Traders National Bank,
whose doors were closed by order of
the Comptroller of the Currency. The
Traders was regarded as one OF the
most important banks in West Vir-
GINA, and a good deal of apprehen-
sion has been caused in financial cir
cles. The liabilities are probably 81
100000, and it is possible that the
assets will be sufficient to prevent loss
to depositors. T NJ Jackson is pres
ident of the bank, and was also presi-
dent of the Jackson Iron and Tin
plate Company, which recently went
into the hands of receivers. The
bank carried large amount Of the
paper of this company.

RAYNER FOR SENATOR.

Isador Rayner, of Baltimore, was
nominated by the Democrats Of the
Maryland Legislature last night to
be United States Senator to succeed
Hon. Louis E McComas. He receiv-
ed so votes, John Walter Smith 20 and
Bernard Carter 10. His nomination
means, of course, his election, as the
Legislature is safely Democratic. Mr..

ter fight. He is an able man and will
represent Maryland in the Senate
with credit, though he is disposed to
regard party lines rather indifferently.

One such fendish crime as that
perpetrated at Roanoke last Saturday
has more effect in forming public
opinion upon the negro question than
all the lectures and essays that can
be sent out from Boston in a year
Theories have no place in the minds
of men when they see happy home
invaded by such a black brute, a
little child cruelty stricken down, a
virtuous wife and mother subjected to
the foulest indignity than can be
placed upon womankind, and crime
committed that literally ruins human
lives.
1t is such occurrences as these that
make US feel as though the elevation
of the black race is almost hopeless
First, because it reveals the innate
savageness and shows what creatures
of unrestrained lust so many of these
negroes are; and secondly, because
by such fearful crimes they ALLEVIATE
the white race, and make of themselves
such outcasts that naturally they lose
the measure of respect that the de-
cent men of color have been so slowly
gathering.
In Roanoke and in Virginia Sat-
urdays crime gives the colored race a
setback, that it will not recover from
in years-and by that time, perhaps
there may be another similar horror
