Summer Sylvan Night Thoughts.
]. WILL JACKSON, d. d.

J. WILL JACKSON, D. d.
Softly fall the shades Of evening;
Twilight, fading, folds its rays;
Smiling stars thro ether beaming;
Sweetly means the dove her lays.
Limpid is the glow Of moonlight;
Zepher breezes fan the brow;
Calmly steals the hush Of midnight,
Passing joys no time heed now.
Slowly weave fond recollections,
Watching we the night depart
Cuttings from mute meditations,
Visions dear that touch the heart.
Whisper, as would lone lost echo,
Mem'ries Of those scenes gone by
Gllm'rings, like some far off halo,
Reach the soul and make it sigh.
Dreaming seem I as wander,
Ling'ring, blissful, with the past.
Sacred are its ties forever!
Hidden tears come forth at lastl
Lovely Night, roll on in splendor,
Until time shall be no more!
Thou to all the earth dost render
Precious thoughts that hearts adore!

1t is well-known principle Of (

cold contracts. This is caused by

pose that the same element VIII

The 200 bones of the body are
all held in place by muscles, liga-

tween these attachments and the
bones themselves lie the nerves,

agencies through which every or
gan, tissue and process of the
body is vitalized for performing
its normal functions. Let cold

Special to The Oil Review.
New Martinsyille. w. Va, Feb.
6.-The local branch of the West
Virginia Humane society at its
meeting Saturday night prepared
a bill which, will be presented in
the State Senate at Charleston to-
day or tomorrow. The bill pro
vides for the establishing and
maintenance of a West Virginia
Humane home, either in Wetzel or
Tyler county. The purpose OF the
home is for the giving Of care and
protection to children who are
made helpless by the death or
neglect of their parents. The bill
provides for the schooling of the
inmates over.6 years of age and
leaves it to the Board Of Dlrec-
tors or regents to hire teachers
and their salary is to be regulated
IN proportion to the salaries paid
under similar conditions and with
same qualifications as teachers IN
the public schools. While the bill
asks for the location to be made
either in Wetzel or Tyler county
it is not to be limited to the uses
of these counties, but is for the
use of the entire State. -
The bill carries with it an APP
preparation of an amount not to
exceed $4,000 for the erection OF
suitable building provided a
free site of 10 acres donated to
the State.
1t is a well known fact that the
children who are made destitute
and helpless in the manners men,
! toned could be better prepared
! for manhood and womanhoOd III
an institution Of this kind than at
county infrmary, where the
| keeper is under no obligation to
educate the pauper children left
in his charge. The people here
are very hopeful that the bill will
pass in the Senate. but are not sc
sure as to it's fate in the House.

In conjunction with the EPIPHANY
celebration, which will occur Thurs
day, the meeting of strikers will make
the day critical one for the police.
Resembles an Armed Camp.
Thus far, however, the strike has pre-
served a purely economic aspect. The
great industrial quarter of St. Peters
burg, which is the pride of modern
Russia, presents the appearance of an
armed camp. The lille factories are
surrounded by cordons of police and
patrols Of infantry march about the
snow-covered plains.
The strikers are led by a priest
named Gopon, who is idolized by the
workmen and who represents them in
negotiations with the employers.
This is the first great strike in
Northern Russia. The strike leaders
claim to have funds enough to hold
out for month; but this is doubted.
The strike has an important bear
ing on the war in the far East, as
every days delay in completing gov
eminent contracts with the iron works
means the loss of precious time in the
starting of the Third Pacific SQUAD
ron.

TELLS THE STORY OF HER LIFE.
Hannah Elias Relates Extraordinary
Tale in Court.

Hannah Elias Relates Extraordinary
Tale in Court.
New York, Jan. 19.-Hannah Elias,
the negress whom aged John r. Platt
is suing to compel her to return $685.
600 which he claims she extorted from
him during an acquaintance of twenty
years, Wednesday told the story of
her life before Justice O'Gorman in
the supreme court, where the suit is
on trial. 1t was an extraordinary tale
OF sudden elevation from the lowest
and most vicious surroundings to a
position of afiuence where money was
literally rained upon her and where
she had everything that great wealth
could provide She declared that she
had nothing to conceal and insisted
that every dollar that Piatt gave her
had been given voluntarily She be-
lieved, she said. that she was under
no obligations to return any part of
the money which she now possessed.
How much money Plat gave her she
could not say even approximately, as
she never kept any account of his
gifts which were made in large gins
at frequent intervals. during their en-
tire acquaintance. Mr.. Plat was very
generous, even from the first, she
said, but he became more so after the
death of his wife in 1893. He told her
at that time that he wanted to provide
for her handsomely and explained that
II ne mentioned her in his will a con-
test might result. He had decided
therefore to give her a great deal Of
money while he was yet alive.
