The many friends of DR.. j. E. Dow

he was notified this morning that he
had successfully passed the dental ex-
animation recently neld by the State
board. DR.. Dowden's name was not
included in the published list Of those
who had passed, because the clinic re-
port had not been sent to the State

the necessary equipment could not be
gotten at the time Of the examination,
SO his report had to be neld of.
DR.. Charles H. Bartlett, president
of the State Examining Board, in his
letter this morning, compliments DR..
Dowden, Jr.. very highly upon his ex-
animation, in that It was SO very ex-

CHARLESTON. July 90. Third dis
trict Republic yesterday gave Hon.
Joseph Holt Gaines magnificent en-.
dorsement when they nominated him
for fourth term by acclamatton in
one OF the most; enthusiastic and har-
monious conventions ever held In the
district. For his other three terms
Mr.. Gaines had hard fights, In regard
to Mr.. Gaines the. resolutions declare
that the session Of the ffty-ntnth con-
gress Is remarkable for number and
importance of public laws enacted by
it. and that it is a matter of peculiar
qualification that Representative
Gaines participated in the passage of
all these laws and in connection with
most important pure food law and
railroad rate law, aided in their pre-
.paration in the house committee OF in
terstate and foreign commerce.
The convention was called to order
at two o'clock by Hon. George G. Nc
Intosh, who named Hon. w. B. Gut
right, of Upshur, chairman; A. q. Cod
dard, association editor of the Fayette-
Vile Journal. e. e. Hood and Phil
Waters, of Charleston, secretaries OF
temporary organization, which was
made permanent.
Chairman Cutright's speech was re-
plete with wit and humor and intensi-
fed the good feeling prevailing. The
convention dispensed with committee
on rules and order and credentials:
Frank c. Burdette, of Kanawha,
made the nominating speech, seconded
by G. w. Dillon, of Fayette, and C. N.
Edgington. of Kanawha.
: Gaines accepted the nomination in

ground on present day issues, and
pledged himself to make as vigorous

= The resolutions say "this conven-
tfon heartily endorses the present Re.
publican state administration as
whole and also two United States SEN
ators, S. B. Elkins. N. B. Scott, and
four Representatives in Congress.
The President was endorsed as fol-
lows: 1--WE challenge the closest
scrutiny of the administration Of
President Roosevelt. 1t has been hon
est, fearless and able. Under it we
have enjoyed peace with all the world,
increased commerce abroad ami un-
paralleled happiness at home. Under
the leadership OF President Roosevelt
the Republican party taught powerful
combinations of capital that the law
had application to them as well as TO
the humblest person. If nothing else.
President Roosevelt would be entitled
at the coming election to public en-
dorsement because of what he has
done to enforce the American idea
that law knows neither r:ch nor pc
but applicable throughout the Iand.'
Few changes were made in the per-
sonnel Of the Congressional committee
which reorganized by the reelection
OF George G. Mcintosh, chairman, and

he would try his luck. He went down
stairs before every race, but didn't
ind any odds that suited him until
the last race. It was large gray
horse. I don't remember, it's name,
but 1t suited Pat all right, for 1t had

with a lively step to cash in his

1t was the last race Of the day and
the bookmaker was anxious to get
rid of. his silver, therefore Pat was
paid with silver dollars.
Pat stood there few minutes fum-
bling over his handful of silver dol
lars, when the bookmaker hollered:
whats the matter, Irish? Don't you
think they are good?"
Pat said: "They look all right, but
I am just trying to see If I can find

he could hardly go ON with his task:
Finally, handing the watch to the gro-

five feet long. In the other end of
the Irvine tie a large knot
Your siege gun will shoot queer
sort of ammunition, neither bullets
nor arrows, but long spear or lance!
For this you need straight stick
five feet long. You must scrape it's
edges carefully until it is perfectly
round all but about three inches from
one end, which. you may leave square
ifthe stick should happen to be four
sided instead of already round. To
the other end of the stick you may
fasten a regular barbed spear-head If
you care to make one from iron Or
sheet tin, or you may drive long
nail in this end for your spear point,
weighing it with strips of lead bound
around the end of the stick with cat
gut or light wire. In the square or
base end of your spear cut a notch
large enough to hold the Irvine, but
small enough so that the knot on the
twine will not pass through it.
The next and last thing you. will
need is an iron, brass Or wooden
ring like curtain ring, or, if you
have not one at hand, you can easily
make one. This is to take the place
Of the fork on your 12-foot pole. Take
a piece of whalebone, or piece of
heavy wire, or even strong flexible
stick, and, bending it around so as
to form a circle, lash the ends firmly
together. Now wrap this carefully
around two or three times with tape
or strips of leather, and then bind it
firmly to the upright pole by about
two-thirds of it's height from the
ground. In fastening it thus use light
wire or strong twine over which you
have rubbed piece of soap till it Is
thoroughly creased.
Now you are ready to fire your first
shot, says Good Literature. Put your
spear through the ring, place the knot
in the Irvine in the notch cut in the
butt of your spear, pull back the spear
until it's head is nearly to-. the ring,
as the illustration shows, and then
let it 60. If your pole is a good one
the heavy spear will be hurled 200
yards or even more.
The best kind of spears are made
from alder sticks or long reeds such
as grow in marshes. They are very
light and you can usually find dozen
or more growing together, so that
you can get a lot of spears at the
same time. With these for your am
munition, you will find that your
siege gun will outshoot anything your
friends may possess, except those who
may have regular powder and shot
firearms, and even those will have to
use something bigger than "22 cal.
shots to beat you.

at all likely. You will probably want
the. engine of warfare planted on your
own premises.
Cut a tough pole about IL feet cong
and three inches thick at the base,
and carefully trim of all the branch
es, leaving, however, a fork about four
feet from the top in case limb is
growing there. If not, never mind,
you can replace the fork with a per-
feet substitute. Dig a hole two feet
deep in. the place where you wish
your siege gun to be permanently
mounted. Place the pole, base down,
in this: hole and wedge around it ,as
many large stones as the hole. will
contain. These must be we'll ,wedged
against the base of the pole. Now
fill up the hole with earth, packing it
down hard every few inches until it
is flush withESthes rest of thesSground.
Now bend over the top of the pole.
and about two inches from the end
fasten, strong piece, Of Irvine about
