Doing Italy.
ROME, ITALY, August 7th, 1906.
EDITOR TINES, Butler, No.


DEAR SIR:-From Chamonix,
France, we travelled several days
over the highest Mountainsin In Swits
erland and known as the "Alps."
For hundreds OF miles our carriage
road was q shelf cut In the rock
mountain sides passing over the
edges OF many terrible abysses and
extending through the most awe In.
spring and magnificent Alpine
scenery.
We would zig sag to the right and
then to the left but always climbing
toward the snow covered summit
above. A.tor travelling for halt a
day We could look back and below
thousands OF feet and see our road
to the bottom.
This mountain road from France
through Switzerland to Italy wes
built by Napolean's army 100 years
ago, over which he moved his troops
and threatened the thrones OF all
Europe.
The grade over each mile Of this
road, up and down both mountain
sides for hundreds OF miles is exactly
the same. 1t is a most wonderful
piece of engineering.
From the mountain top We saw
snow covered mountain peaks and
glaciers Tor so miles with beautiful
green valleys and winding rivers
with here and there cities and vii
lages set in between with mountain
sides terraced and covered By vine
yards, fruit iarms and houses.
We remained one night. 1t hap.
pened to be the Anniversary ol
Switserland's Independence day and
they were celebrating just as Ameri
cans do on July 4. After dark VI
saw electric lights and fire works
iron dozen or more cities down II
the valleys twenty or more mile'
away.
Remained at Milan, Italy, twt
days. Population five hundred
thousand. Visited q Catholic church
three hundred by Eve hundred feet
In size, supported by nfty.two granit'
columns, each forty eight feet in cir
cumierence and built 600 years ago
Our next stop was Genoa, th'
birth place Of Columbus. A carriag'
driver showed US the old stone walll
fifty feet high extending around th'
city, with Catholic churches, hun
Areds OF old tombs and statuarJ
covering many acres.
Then to Pisa, or the MEDITERRANEAN
Sea, population 10000 Here visit
ed many churches, "The Leaninl
Tower" q very old cemetery and th'
Baptistery, which is q round marbl
building 100 feet in diameter snt
800 feet high and built 600 year
ago. In this building the children
OF Catholics have been baptized iol
centuries. Its accoustics are botl
beautiful and peculiar. A song, O
music rendered by a musical instru
ment is echoed and re echoed bacl
and forth from It's dome again ant
again finally dying gradually away
Mrs. Walton, by request, sang th
"Holy City" which sounded beautl
iul while the sweet toned echoes re
turned again and again.
Now In Rome for 5 days. There Ii
much to see In this historic old cit!
which is the headquarters Tor tn
Roman Catholic church for the who'll
world. Il is the home OF the Pope.
From here 60 to Naples, Florenc'
and Venice, thence to Butler.
Yours Truly,

Strip Stephen B. Elkins of his i'm
mense riches, and who would even
think of him as suitable person TO
represent West Virginia into the United
States Senate.
Were it publicly stated today that
Senator ElkiLs is bankrupt and I'M
able to contribute dollar with which
to corrupt the voters of this State and
members of the Legislature, the Re
publican newspapers and boodling po-
Iitical leaders would desert him as rap
idly as rats desert burning ship.
While wealth alone should not bar
man from political perferment, yet
there should be other qualifications
for the high office Of United States
Senator than riches alone.
Had it not been for his money, whs
in all West Virginia would even have
thought of N. b. Scott as United
States Senator?
These are matters well worth the
consideration of all thinking people,
no matter to " hat political party they
may belong-Charleston Gazette.

The Ashes OF a Hero.

The remains of Gen. l.. A. Armi-
stead who fell at Gettysburg, are to be
removed from their present resting
place in Baltimore to Hollywood Cer2-
etery at Richmond. This is eminent
Nv proper for no more glorious spirit
perished on that historic battlefield
than this noble Virginian. Gen. Arm
istead commanded the central bridage
Of the three which composed Picketts
Division, and, hat on the point OF his
sword. led his men across the Federal
works on the heights Of Cemetery
ridge. He progressed far within the
Federal lines, his men capturing bat
terry of artillery, and he was killed just
as he laid his hand upon captured
gun-probably the proudest death on
all that awful field of carnage, because
he must have believed the victory won,
the cause of the South established, the
recognition of England and france OBJ
tanned and the independence OF the
Confederate States assured by the
charge which he led and which he
then had reason to believe was success
full.
