Mr.. Plaster Fined S26.

At Leesburg last week the trial
of George +. Plaster, Jr., charged
with malicious assault on John
Chaplin, of Bluemont, resulted in
Il fine of $50 being imposed.
The case grew out of a personal
difficulty between Plaster and
Chaplin, but was afterward taken
up by the Commonwealth, in an
effort to score a conviction for a
felony.
The felony charge fell through.
and the fine was imposed for ordi-
nary assault.
Both Plaster and Chaplin are
well known in Berryville and
Clarke county.
In the trial Mr.. Plaster was
represented by Il, +. Byrd, of
Winchester, Marshall Mccormick
of Berryville. and John Alexander,
of I.eesburg.

CORRESPONDENCE
An Enjoyable Religious Revival.

we would be pleased 10 let the people
of clarke know through your columns
about the glorious revival we have had
at the Mountain Baptist Church. held
by Evangelist Wharton, and the strong
oid-time sermons be preached night
after night for two weeks at our church.
We feel that great good for the commn-
nifty will grow out Of this meeting. We
want to thank the young men for their
great interest and good behavior during
the season OF the meetings which have
been held for us this past year. We
especially remember the generosity OF
our old friend, Mr Richard Schaffer of
this community, who unsolicited gave 70
the Baptist Church very handsome
lamp. We hope Dick las he is best
known will continue to help such good
work by assisting in giving light on il.
and through your paper we speak for
the whole congregation in thanking him
very much.
We believe our church is financially
in as good condition as most country
q
well as many good voices amongst the
young people With little training we
would have good music on all occasions
Our community with a few exceptions.
is in good health
We can also boast Of the oldest inhab-
itsnts, we believe, in the county. II not
IN the State, who were born and raised
all OF them. in this immediate section.
We feel that during the wear now fast
leaving US forever, a great deal of good
has been done with Us. as well as At
many other places.
Mr.. Editor, while your paper is not a
religious one, I know that many Of nv
friends. like myself, always read the
COURIER first out of any other parcels
that may come
Very truly yours,
JOSEPH ELsEA.

How Elderly Women Should Dress.

The eternal fitness in clothing
for elderly ladies is discussed in
the New Idea Woman's Magazine
for January. The writer states
truly enough that amy failure on
the partofthe matron 20 observe the
boundary line between girlish and
matronly fashions will detract de-
cidedly from her dignity and the
effectiveness of her appearance,
unless she has preserved the grace
full figure of her girlhoOd and has
otherwise retained her youthful
charms. " As to what is the exact
boundary line, the writer is wisely
silent, remembering the adage
that "A women is as old as she
looks. In view Of this saving
provision, it is doubtless to be left
to the individual woman TO decide
how old she does look. although
dire penance may fall upon her
should she decide wrongly. 1t is
for the woman who decides that
she does look elderly that the ad-
vice in the New Idea Woman 5
Magazine is penned. In coats. "
1t Is said, probably the semi-fitting
mode is the most popular with older
women, as it is suited to any kind
of figure. Coats. rs part of suit.
are not worn by older women as a
rule, any shorter than a deep hip
length, and for a separate wrap
the three-quarter or seven-eighths
length Is given the preference. =
In regard to materials, the soft
fabrics, it is averred such as cash
meres, fine broadcloths, velvetS and
velveteens. will be used a great
deal by matronly wearers." Sew
eral cuts show street and house
gowns suitable for older women.

Reception at the ManSe.

Mr.. and Mrs. Scanlon are to
give an informal reception at the
Manse on Wednesday evening,
December 27, from Z to ii o'clock,
To the young people of the three
congregations of which Mr.. Scan
Ion is pastor. A similar social
evening was given last May by
Mr.. and Mrs. Scanlon at which
time about l25 persons enjoyed
the hospitality of their house. The
idea of these social evenings is that
the persons of these various
churches may have an opportunity
to meet with each other and be-
come more interested in the whole
work of these churches which are
united in this one field and under
the same pastor. \ delightful
evening is anticipated for all who
may attend.

No More Free Pass.

President l.. f. johnson, of the
Norfolk and Western, returned
this morning from Philadelphia, and
70 a representative of this paper
gave out the following statement
relative to the discontinuance of
passes:
Beginning with January 1, 1906.
the Norfolk and Western Railway
Company will discontinue the issu-
ance of free transportation to all
persons other than employees of the
company.
1t is not the intention to discon-
tlnue the issuance of free transpor-
tation to its employees, but the same
restrictions heretofore thrown
around the issuance of free trans
portation will be continued in the
future as in the past.
The Norfolk and Western rail
way will exchange transportation
with other railroads for persons
actually employed thereon upon
request Of proper officers for such
transportation.
The above outlines the policy of
the company outside of the State
of Virginia.
Ii affects the policy of the Nor
folk and Western railway in the
State of Virginia TO this extent:
Although it Is perfectly we'll kown
that this company has issued ne
free transportation To any State or
municipal officers of the State of
Virginia since the adoption Of the.
present constitution, yet it has
been customary for this company
TO issue free transportation in some
intances TO the officers of the fed
eral government. This last named
class of transportation will be dis
continued.
In this connection it may be pro-
per to state that the railway COM
pany will discontinue its policy of
advertisement on account of free
transportation, but that such adver-
tisement as the company sees fit to
place will be paid for.
Ii will be seen from the above
that SO far As the employees of the
road are concerned they will not
be affected, but the order i'm sub
stance means the discontinuance
of passes 10 every one else. The
policy of the railroad to issue
transportation TO the newspapers
in exchange for advertising will be
discontinued, and what advertising
they do will be paid for and news
paper men will be required to pay
their fare. Roanoke News,
