There is good prospect of estab-
fishing a Presbyterian church at
Salem. Services have been held
there occasionally some time and are
to be regular in the future with Rev.
Mr.. South, of Pennsboro, preaching.
A Sunday school will also be organ
lied. For the present the services
are in the Seventh Day BAPTIST
church, but it is hoped to build a
Presbyterian cdifce later. The
movement is commendable as there
are several Presbyterian families in
that city. and all the Presbyterians
of the state should be interested.
There ought to be no lack of ser
vices on account of any inability
of Mr.. South to hold them regular
" as other Presbyterian preachers
are within reach and will doubtless
be willing to lend helping hand.

CHEAP wHIsKEY.

An interesting bit of knowledge
comes from Fairmont as follows,
which promises to become war to
the teeth between the various fac
tons and classes of that places
citizenship:
.oPhe fight between the local bar
tenders union and II. T. Blair, OF
sthe Fountain saloon, still goes on.
The bartenders claim that union
men will not patronizc the saloon be-
cause Blair does not employ union
bartenders. Small cards and dodg-
ers were printed several days ago
and distributed by the union stat
ing that although it is against the
law to use the word boycott, union
men and their friends will not pat
ronize the Fountain saloon.
''Blair came back with a printed
dodger to the effect that beginning
on November is he would sell whis-
KEY at five cents per drink.
: eFThis is the day the promise goes
into effect, and for once in the his
tory of Fairmont the price of liquor
is cut.
The Telegram fails to see how
cheap whiskey helps the situation:
though it may in the end accomplish
the purpose of the seller. But while
the war lasts there will be plenty OF
cheap drunkards, which will GER
tainly not edify the morality of the
town.

GOOD ROADS coNYENTIoNs.

Good roads conventions are being
held in various places in this state.
presumably under the auspices of a
national organization, but SO. far
Clarksburg has not been thus favor
ed. The subject is onez+hat ought
to interest every one in the county
and especially farmers.
At some of these meetings there
has been a very poor representation
of farmers, fact that indicates that
class of our citizenship is indiffer-
ent. Why they are so. has not been
learned. Most assuredly good roads
are vital to the success of the farmer.
They furnish him easy methods OF
marketing his products, provide him
convenience in travel, increase the
value of his property and are adj
vantageous in many other ways.
City folk may well be interested in
the subject and very properly for
there is a community of interests be-
tween cities and the country dis
tricts, but at the same time railroad
transportation aids city folk and
may not materially help contiguous
country districts.
So far as possible roads should be
in their building and
much of the temporary repair work
should be abandoned. There should
be science in their building and
keeping and care.
Doubtless the object of these con
ventions are not only to arouse In
terest but also to impress on gov,
erning bodies the actual necessity OF
better methods of road-building
With these ends in view, it is Ger,
tainly urgent that there be a good at,
tendance upon these conventions
from every class of the population

DISREGARD GAME LAWS

Hunters ere supposed to be men
of honor and, if they are true sports
men are jealous and painstaking in
Observing the rules and the laws,

YES, but it seems that some have
thrown aside all observance of the
law and are violating it with i'm
pugnitv. as shown by the following
complaint by an old hunter through
the columns of the Webster Echo:
ssThe charges which have been
made that dogs are being used to
chase deer on Gauley are well found
ed, as every day this party was IN
the woods they heard the baying OF
hounds. with now and then the
crack of deadly rife. Just such
dastardlv work as this is driving all
the game to other sections, that IS.
what is not logged to death, and it
is safe to say that if kept up in only
a very few years, possibly not more
than two or three, there will not be
a deer in all tlTt vast expanse OF
forest stretching from Elk river to
Cranberry and Cherry. There are
n few small pieces of territory not
vet invaded by the merciless hunter
with dogs where a few deer may be
found. sometimes two or three to-
gether. but such places Hre few and
far between. Let the game wardens
of Webster, Randolph and Pocahon-
ttas counties do their sworn duties
and this unlawful hunting must
cease. We believe sufficient evil
dence to convict could be easily Sc
cured. and the effort should he made
without delay. Let no guilty man
escape"

THE5 FOOL HOUSE
FOOLED Them

The Grand. opera house was
crowded last night, the cause OF the
outpouring of play goers being'"I he
Fool House." billed as a musical
comedy. Harry Dull, which by the
way, is a misnomer, and The Fool
House, is as good name as any
that could have been selected. ne
Fool House makes no pretensIPn
other than it presents. 1t is pure
" slap, stick, go-as-you-please farce,
and rs such it serves its purpose.
Old seasoned play goers say that 1t
has been a long time since they
heard so much laughter in an even
inc at the opera house. In fact.
that is the mission of "Ihe Fool
House, to make you laugh, and 1t
surely succeeds.
There is only one statement that
might be questioned, and that is the
program states that it is play with
a blot. Maybe the plot was con
cealed some place last night, but the
actors didn't succeed in finding IT,
The real plot and the only one
necessary, is that it introduces 5he
four Huntings, and that IS plot
enough for the audience
The Huntings are easily led by
Lew. who is a replica, either by ac-
cident or design, of Geo. M. Conan

been told they look like that very bad
actor, Geo. NJ, ESQ.,?

TestInx wool nnd Linen.

1t often happens that wooden goods
will be doctored with cotton. TO dis
cover this there are several tests that
can be made. One is the match test.
BY applying lighted match to a sam
pie of the goods the manner in which it
burns Will be evidence of its genuine
ness.
Wool will burn slowly, while cotton
win go like train of gunpowder. An
other test Is to unravel the threads
and the cotton can then easily be de
tected. says Woman's Life.
To the experienced buyer the "feeI''
of linen Is sufficient Indication OF the
quality, but for those who lack this
knowledge there is an old fashioned
test which our grandmothers used
which Is unfailing to show II there is
cotton in the fax.
Dampen tho finger and apply to the
surface of the linen fabric. If the
moisture il seen on the other side you
may know at once 1t is linen. II 1t is
slow in coming through. without doubt
there is nm nGnlixture OF cotton. An
other method is to unravel the threads
