HE Also RAN.

Down in Tennessee Demo
crat who ran for Congress by thu
name of Taylor, and who was
beaten in the race good deal
worse than some of the Demo
cratic statesmen of West Virgin
ia who tried to break into Com
gress, felt it to be his duty TO
write a card to his constituents.
which he did, and published the
same in the newspapers.
"Be not cast down by your de-
feat. I would rather have your
position than the victor's. Any
honest man would. The white
plume of knightly purity and val
or that goes down to the'battle
shall wave again, Immaculate and
unsulIied. The Damascus blade
of truth that falls in the dust OF
conflict shall rise and flash again,
undimmed and incorruptible; it
may be on other helmets and in
other hands-but they shall rise
they were not made for dust.
The blood of battle, spilled from
the seed of the worlds redempt-
ion, which shall blossom and bear
fruit when the workers of iniqui-
ty shall rot in the grave of oblivi-
on, unhonored and unsung.
Truth may suffer its Leipsig to-
day, but it will have its Auster-
litz tomorrow; and in Times last
conflicts the armies of Satan shall
go down in ignominous over
throw in the worlds last Water
loo."
OF course man who can write
like that should never be defeat
ed for Congress.

Again that fine old Roman,
Henry Gassaway Davis, comes to
the assistance of West Virginia.
Nearly everybody favors the erec-
ton of a suitable state building at
the Jamestown Exposition, but
favorable action by the. Legisla-
ture would be too late as the Ex-
position begins May 1st. Mr.. Da-
Wis and Senator Elkins have
agreed to advance $780, 900 for the
building and take their chances
on an appropriation of this sum
by the Legislature. Should the
legislature fail to allow this mon
ey, they will pay it out of their
own pockets.

The Faithful Wife.

Oft times I have seen a tall ship
glide by against by against the
tide, as if drawn by some invisi-
BILE tow line with a hundred
strong arms pulling it. Her sails
hung untitled, her streamers were
dropping, she had neither side
wheel nor stern wheel; still she
moved on stately, IN serene tri-
'umph, as if with her own life.
But 1 knew that on the other
side of the ship, hidden beneath
that great hulk that swan SO ma
jestically there was a little, toll
ing steam tug, with heart of
fire and arms of iron, that was
hugging it close and dragging it
brayely on; and I-knew that if
the little steam tug untwined her
arms and left the tall ship, it
would wallow and roll about, and
1t would drift hither and thither,
and go off with refiuent tide, no
man knows where. And SO I
have known more than Ione gen.
ius, high-decked, full-treighted,
wide-sailed, gay-penonned, that,
but for the bare, toiling arms and
brave, warm beating heart of the
faithful little wife that nestled
close to him so that no wind or
wave could part them would soon
have gone down stream and been
heard of no more.-Oliver Wen
dell Holmes.

How Some Men
Court Success


Would you win sucoess? Then
you must WOO her with constanoy
that knows no relapse into indiffer-
ence. She is jealous and exacting,
but she is worth the winning.
Do you believe any young man
could win a wife if he said to the
young lady of his ohoice. Il shall
call on you every Thursday even
ing at $50 exactly and will leave
at just 10 by the watoh," the in
ference being that during that
time he would devote himself dill
gently to oonrtship.
If he was like the average young
man who seeks to conquer the
world of business. he would wan
der in at about e:45. and about
$50 he would tnrn che eye toward
the clook, and thereafter he would
note it's every stroke At FIVE
minutes to ten he would have his
hat on, and at the fret stroke of
the olcck he would be at the door,
and by the time last stroke of ten
resounded through the hall he
would be in the middle of the
next block. or probably headed for
the rear door of some nearby ga.
loon.
NV, could such a man under
such system win any self-respect-
ing girlf Certainly not. But the
same young man will WOO business
success under the same system and
then complain because he fails to
achieve it. / tell you the average
worker gets all he deserves and
frequently much more. The man
who wins deserves to win, and the
man who fails all too often gets his
just deserts.
Express your life in what you ito.
If your work is uncongenial either
cultivate love for it or do some.
thing you like to do. for less pay
if necessary. Achievements with
out fixed purpose is mere acci-
dent. Only that achievement with
out fixed purpose is mere acci.
dent. Only that achievement which
results from pertinaoious effort ia
worth while.

that pupils who have access to

Prayed for Fodder;
Got Carload Corn.

Silas Horsford, of New Haven,
Conn, whose farm abuts the DAN
bury branch of the New Haven
road, knows the ways of Provi-
dence are inscrutable. He has
been praying for corn for his hens
for the winter. A freight train of
twenty three cars was wrecked
by his place. twenty-five cars
were smashed. The twenty-third
oblingingly tumbled down into
Silas's back yard and dumped
several hundred bushels of corn
neatly against the back door.
"That'll tickle the hens-and
eggs at forty-five cents" was the
farmers joyous comment.
The other cars performed re-
markable stunts. They tore up
the embankmentan and at one point
RACED it to a level They tore up
tracks for a quarter of a mile.
They were loaded with produce,
and farmers have been uusy all
day gathering in stores of bounty
for the winter.
The damage to the road was so
serious that it will be days before
trains can be run. Meantime New
York trains will go by way of
Bridgeport.

Kindness Unspoken.

Do you know that the world is
full of kindness, that never was
spoken, and that is not much bet
ter than no kindness at all? The
fuel in the stove makes the room
warm, but there are piles of fall
ing trees lying on rocks and on
top of hill where nobody can get
them; these do not make any
body Iwarm. You might freeze
to death for want of wood in
plain sight of these fallen trees if
you had no means of getting the
wood home and making a fire of
it. Just SO in a family; love is
what makes parents and children,
the brothers and sisters happy.
But if they take care never to say
"a word about it, If they keep it a
profound secret as if it were a
crime, they will not be much hap
pier than if there was not any
love among them; the house will
seem cold even in summer, and if
you live there you will envy the
dog when you call him poor fell
low.

BANQUET, RECEPTIONS AND

with the red fezs of the ShEiaers;
the reception. banquet and ball at
the Hotel Fredfick under the aus
Hpices of the local members of BENZ
kedem temple. Mobiles of the Mys-
tho Shrine, was an event that will
long be remembered by those pres
ont.
About half past eight the guests
invited to the function began to
arrive, and by nine O'Clock there
weretwelve hundred people pres
emit SO that even the commodious
accommodations Of the Hotel
Frederick were taxed to their capa-
city.
The first part of the evening was
spent in general reception during
which time visiting Shriners re.
vived acquaintances with other
visiting Shriners or with members
of the local body.
At the reception last night six
different Shrines were represented,
With nearly three hundred delegates
and Ashland came next, with an
attendance CT about hundred.
The beautiful ball room of
the new hotel was most fittingly
dedicated to patrons of the light
fantastic, while to the accompaui.
ment of music rightfully timed,
the feature of the evening was
given place in the form of the drill
march of the Arab Patrol from
BENZ Kedem temple. Only long
practice in the intricate figures of
the march would have made it
possible for the Patrol to have ex-
ecuied the difficult steps. turnings
and figures which they went
through without hitch and with
a grace that elioited the most sim
cere applause.
Both those of the oity and the
visiting 6hrinars and their ladies
were delighted with the ball room,
both in its sizs and its general
finish. Many spent the greater
part of the evening in participation
in the various dances.
Due to the fact that the dining
room was filled to it's comfortable
capacity when one hundred and
fifty were admitted, the banquet
was necessarily made informal.
But the informality did in no wise
det-aot from the appreciation of
the hospitality rendered the men,
bers of the Shrine.
The stealthy slipping away of
time brought the hour, one, when
the special train of the Charleston
Shriners was scheduled to leave,
at hand much too soon. The de-
parture of the Charleston visitors
was the signal of the general break
ing up of the company and by two
O'Clock the apartments of the big
hotol were still. The music, the
simmer of silk, the hum of talk,
the gliding forms of dancers, the
blaze of the electric lights, were
gone and thus gone was the crown
ing ceremonial of the Masonic
Grand Lodge session in Hunting
ton.
