THE PRIDE OF THE KENNEL.

We once knew man who owned
a very large kennel Of dogs and his
pride was conferred in them, especi-
ally one very fine grey hound. This
dog was the apple Of his eye so to
speak and like all things which we
dearly love, something had to hap
pen which would cause the master
great sorrow. One day while in a
chase this grey hound ran into
piece of perpendicular barbed wire
fence and was split open from the
top of his head to the tip of his tail.
However the master did not give up
in total despair since he had some
knowledge of anatomy and medicine
Knowing the theory of osmosis he
slapped the two halves of his dog
together; but in his great haste he
put the head part of one half to the
tail part of the other. Nevertheless
the dog grew and was then the real
pride of the kennel for he could run
both ways and bark at both ends at
the same time. We are always re-
minded of this story after reading
Reed on the new tax laws. He GER
tainly is the pride of the Dawson
kennel.

DR.. c. R. SILVERWOOD DIES.
DEATH CAME AT 1880 TUESDAY
NIGHT.
People Of KlngWOOd Shocked at The Sad
News OF His Death.

This Wednesday, Morning the people
of Kingwood were shocked TO learn of
the sudden death of DIR. c. r. Silver
wood.
At the time of retiring last night,
but few of our people were aware of
his very serious condition and only a
few persons were at his bedside when
the spirit took its departure.
1t has been known for some days
that he was indisposed and had been
taken to the Strickler Hospital so he
could have the close attention of the
physicians. He had somewhat inn
proved and had been going out some
and only yesterday, Tuesday, he had
made long trip to the country with
DR.. Strickler and seemed TO be much
better, but it was known that he had
fits of dependency and expressed him
self as being dissatisfied with life, but
yet nothing was thought of this.
Last evening, after eating a hearty
supper at the Stricken Hospital he
remarked to DR.. Strickler that he felt
so good he believed he WOULD walk
out for an hour or so. He went to
his own Office and there secured, it is
supposed some morphine tablets, this
along with another we'll known drug
he is supposed to have taken an over
dose. He went from h i S
Office to his home and there
talked pleasantly with his wife for a
short time and was finally taken sick
and his wife ran to neighbor to go
for the doctor. Drs. Strickler and
Ross were called, but his condition
was at once pronounced beyond help,
but, however, the doctors worked
with him until the end came. He
died about IL 80. p M.
The deceased was born in Ohio "a
years ago and when a young man he
attended the Ohio Wesleyan Univer-
sity at Delaware, Ohio, for two years.
From 1891 to 1892 he served in Co.
X. 14th Ohio National Guard. After
leaving Ohio he attended Richmond
Medical and Dental College, gradu-
ating from the dental department
about 1896. He located in Kingwood
in 1897.
At the breaking out of the Spanish
American war in 1898 he was com
missioned LIST Lieutenant in the Sec
ond West Virginia Volunteer Infantry.
Resigning in February 1899. He was
commissioned 1st Lieutenant of Co.
G. West Virginia National Guard
First Regiment in April 1903 and on
June 2, 1905 he was commissioned a
captain of the same company.
He leaves a heartbroken wife and a
small son to mourn their loss.
Mrs. A. J. Sherwood mother of the Doc
tor and Mr.. and Mrs. {. A. Bengle brother
in-law and sister of the doctor, all from
Richmond, Va. arrived today and the re-
mans were taken to Ashley, Ohio where the
funeral will be held tomorrow at the old

There is one thing that we must
keep fresh in the memory of the
people and that is that the County
Courts that cut and slashed the new
assessment belong to the Republi-
can party and they supported Daw-
son and his tax laws enthusiastically
and Loyalty, because the Machine
promised them anything they want
ed. They are not, however, the
kind of men that can be held in
line on broken promises.

The Journal is terribly worked up
over THE ARGUS receiving half the
allowance for publishing the fnan-
cial statement of the county and
walls and pulls Its hair and CRASHES
its teeth, over the matter, claiming
that THE ARGUS got as much for
the job as all the Republican papers
in the county put together, but even
If 1t did it was no more than right
and was worth it, every cent Of it.
The fact of the matter IS that The
ARGUS has almost as many bonahde
subscribers as all the other papers
Of the county put together and does
more printing and has more reputa-
ton and influence and standing and
all the other things that go to make
up the rates for advertising.

For years the political Machines
in Ohio, New York and Pennsyl-
vania stood between the political
criminals and justice. The more
crimes they committed against the
ballJt the higher they stood In the
estimation of the Machines. If the
crime was too brszen aud nAgrant
they wcre probably arrested and
convicted, but they did not remain
behind the bars any length If time
as the Machine would have the
sentence suspended or the criminal

in West Virginia the record of par
dons will be investigated. They
are becoming too numerous.

To "Antique:" The ARGUS car
not blame you for admiring such
ancient publications as the Journal
and the Preston Republican. They
are supposed to reflect the ideas
and sentiments of those who inhabit-
ed this globe over one hundred years
ago. The rapid age of progress in
which we are passing through is too
swift for Bros. Whetsell and Reed
to grasp the dash board as the vehi-
Gle passes by. This is why they
keep in such close commune with
Ananias and Sapphira.

 VERT UNCOMFORTABLE

Coal Men Were Kept Busy Booking

 Christmas Shopping VIII Reach Its
 Climax TO-day.
 Winter weather reigne1 supreme all day yesterday. A sharp biting wind blew with considerable force and made things very uncomfortable for those whose duty made them face the chilly blast. It was a day when those who were not well protected against the ele- ments shivered and inwarily exclaimed, "Oh, for the good old summer time" While those who were more fortunate in the shape of having good warm wraps to keep them comfortable wish ed that they were where the chilly blast was not so keen. But, as Burns says, It's an i'll wind that blows no one gule." And so it was that while some were made uncomfortable and unhappy by the wintry atmosphere, there were others who profited thereby The coal men were made happy by numerous or ders for the black diamonds; the clothing stores were sought out by many who, owing to the mild weather had put off buying their heavy gar ments and overcoats, and heavy under wear had a large sale. Soda fountains were kept busy dispensing hot drinks The large stores suffered somewhat during the evening, as the cold had the effect of keeping the ladies at home The merchants, however, prophecy, that with little milder weather to-day the Christmas trade will be at it's height and the stores will be crowded from early morning until the closing hour at 10 p. m.

MAN-FAsHTON UNDERSTANDINGS.
 A number of young ladies and some matrons have braved public opinion by appearing on horseback a Ia clothespin. It looks a little queer and some may think immodest, but we can't see any immodesty in riding horse in the safest and what appears most natural. manner. Horseback riding is 6lecided- ly healthful exercise, and, with all due respect to the opinions of those who prefer the side saddle, we think the new way the most healthful and less dangerous. The street guys will rubber" for 8 time. Let them. If you prefer to ride with both l-l-lower extremities (pardon our stuttering) on one side. ride that way; the boys will rubber" just the same, for every man likes to see a graceful lady rider, and. that is what you will become with practice riding in either position.--Au- gusta (Kan.)
