SELLING TO BOYS.

Two young boys, not over sixteen
wears old, asked at the store of wei:
known merchant a day or so ago to
to sold some cigarettes. The mer-
chant knew the boys and their age &c;
Being under age he declined to sell
them. AT the same time he noticed
they were much under the influence
of iiouor. When he told them they
we're too Young to buy cigarettes, one
of them pulled out whiskey bottle
full of whislley and said they did not
know why. as they had bought
wbiskev. Now, this sort of business
night to stop, and, if the grand jurE
does its duty, it will stop it. Any
man of common sense ought to see
that bows are not men, especially boys
only sixteen years of age. Some
times it is hard to determine Just
how old a young man is, that is
when his age is bordering closely
round twenty-one years, but most
any one ought to have enough dis
eernment to appreciate five years IN
he age of a boy. The boys ought
TO be called upon to tell where they
bought the whiskey and then the
law should do the rest.

nsylum at Huntington, splendid in
stitution. The hayward have an
institution provided for them, where
they may reform. The incorriglble
have also institutions at which they
NAV reform. There may be a pos
sibie exception, namely, place Tor
the inebriate. All others are amply
provided for. The wholly deformed
often leave an impress of deplor-
able nature on posterity-not theirs.
but of those who see them. There
are many other reasons why the
laws of the state should cover al
such cases, the institutions have been
provided, and it would be better Tor
all concerned, if such laws were en-
forced to the letter. The question
is a very serious one and the leglsla--
tors and officers of the law should
not pass over the matter lightly. In
the meantime, however, until such
is attended to properly, the unfortu-
mates should be dealt with IN
charitable manner by the public.

So much regret having been ex-
pressed lately that Clarksburg did
not assist in the organization of 81
first-class baseball team here at the
beginning of the season will be test
ed as to its sincerity by the support
given the football team that pro-
poses to organize for the season this
fall. Now is the time to show what
can be done and whether or not
CIarksburg is so much inclined to
athletics as some of the fans pretend
There will have to be some money
Forthcoming, some moral Support
and a great big attendance at the
games. The chance is with us to
show the stuff we are made of. Foot
ball popularity is to be tested tins
year. Finances are good tests.
Liberal support along this line will
be an Indicator of what is to be done
as to baseball next year. 1t is urged
that this opportunity be not missed.

wITTE TO DEAL WITH.

A sensational dispatch issues
from Paris as to the Emperor of
RUSSIA, and yet it was not unlocked
for. Americans generally, who have
kept themselves posted on the trend
of affairs in Russia, as sent out by
the special correspondents, to say
nothing of the East war itself, are
not surprised at the. description
given in the cablegram about the
Car, and yet they can not reconcile
how the Car is so closely imprisoned
and at the some time throws off his
fear sufficiently to get away from
that strong prison known as the
Cars home to go and meet the En-
peror of Russia. Barricaded as h'
has been supposed to be-in a YER
liable fortress-how dare he venture
forth, and, if he be in the state this
cable says, why would he take the
risk?
The cable reads that French

thrifty and the future looks bright.
The hay crop is expected to be some

drought it is a matter of gratifica-

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE NOW
VIII Make Independent Investiga-
tion Of standard OIL Methods I'm
Kansas Field.

Topeka, Kan, April 1.-The de-
partment of justice at Washington Will
proceed independently Of Commission
er Garfield In making an investigation
Of the situation in the Kansas oil field.
II was learned Friday that the federal
officers in Kansas have been directed
to furnish the department with all
information they have Of the Stand
ard Oil company's methods in the Held.
In addition to this information the
department also will receive reports
from FIVE secret service men who are
now at work in the oil field. These
secret service men have been In the
field for more than a week and their
reports are expected to supplement the
information in the hands Of the fed
eral officers.

Columbus, Ohio, April 3.-The Rev.
DR.. Washington GLADDEN.. moderator
of the general council Of Congregation
al churches. preaching at the First Con-
gregational church on 1.-THE Christian
Of Today" said:
THE Christian of today Is beginning
to get q new idea Of what 1t means
to carry his religion into his business;
he has found out that II signifies an
earnest effort to make his business not
only q means Of gain, but an instru-
mentality Of help and service to all
his fellowmen.
Andrew Carnegie said some years
ago for instance, that a man might be
as selfish as he pleased in the accumu-
lation of a fortune, II he would only
be benevolent in the distribution OF
the fortune after 1t was made.
THAT 1t is not the best theory Of the
business mans responsibility. His
greatest opportunities of benevolence
are those which come to him in his
business. It is while he is making his
fortune, not after 1t is made, that he
must prove himself Christian.
Gifts, no matter how munificent,
which have been heaped up by extor-
ton and trickery are not Christian
benefactions. Some Of the most gi-
gantic robbers that the world has ever
known men who have accumulated
hundreds of millions by wicked
methods are by some persons prais-
ed and flattered for their liberal gifts
to churches, colleges and missions.
Such an estimate does not represent
the Christianity of today.
1.-THE Christianity Of today distinctly
sees that the Christianization Of the
great realm Of industry and traffic Is
the most urgent problem now before
them. Il Is q tremendous undertake
ing, but not too arduous for the all
conquering grace of Him who has
banished infanticide. abolished slavery
and lifted woman to an equality with
man.

COURT MUST DECIDE
Faulty Construction of New Ballot
Law Makes Meaning
Doubtful.

Topeka, Kas., March 31.-On &C
count of a bobble by the legislature
It will likely take decision Of the SUI
preme court to adjudicate one Of the
important sections in the new Aus
tralian ballot law. The old law made
4 machine out Of q voter. The slight
est false move resulted in having his
ballot thrown out. The legislature
Just closed tried to make II easier to
vote q ticket. In other words. the in
tention of the voter was to rule when
there was any question as to the ir-
regularity of his ballot. The old law
provided that II there was q mark In
the circle at the top Of the ticket. a
mark on any other part Of the ballot
would invalidate It. The new law
provides that voter can mark in the
circle and also mark in squares be-
hind candidates on other tickets, that
the marks in the squares shall be
counted for those candidates and the
mark in the circle count for the rest
of the ticket. But on account Of the
bobble referred to, almost any ballot
has to be counted, no matter how It
Is marked up.

DEMANDS OF OIL PRODUCERS.

Kensas City, Mo-, April 3.-As the
result of the conference between trai-
fic officials Of the Santa Fe railway and
the executive committee Of the Kansas
OIL Producers association, the railroad
officials agreed to make q formal re-

Kansas legislature to protect them O.
gainst discriminating freight rates
and to remove the restrictions imposed
by the railroads In reference to deiiv'

which have grown UP because OF the
close relations between the railroads
and the Standard Oil company.
It was brought out at the conference
that the producers wanted assurance
