meeting in The Gazette office. Seven
towns were represented and another
will be slected at a future meeting

mont and Clarksburg will play Sun

ssNfr. Travis acted as chairman Of
The meeting yesterday, and Seamop
secretary. The respective managers
and Representatives all reported
bright and encouraging prospects for
the season. One pleasing feature
was the announcement that James
Gronningcr, OF the West Virginia
university and former captain OF
that team, and Morgan Bowman, Of
Uniontown, the former Yale base
ball and football captain, would
manage the Uniontown team. Bust
ness men are raising the money, and
they win act as manager and cap
tain respectively. Bowman is AT
present teaching in the Fill school,
Pottstown, Pa, but he will return
home in time to start the champion
ship season.
esHarry Tate, who was spoken Of
as manager Of the East Liverpool
team. said Friday he had not yet
closed with that club. Manager
Stanton. Of the W. and J. college
baseball team, happened in on the
meeting. and he had a conversation
with Tate, and offered hin the posi-
ton as coach OF the candidates at
Washington and Jefferson this
spring"
GUYS account of the meeting that
the first reports reaching here were
in no wayexaggerated or overdrawn
and that the movement has taken
on certainty. But there yet re-
mains enough to be done. More
funds are the first essential; Fol
lowing this is the engaging of a
team, which will be looked . after
most efficiently under the direction
Of Mr.. Camden Sommdfs, who, by
the consensus of opinion, should be
selected as local manager, and who
it is believed, will consent to do this
for clarksburg's benefit.
There is scarcely any thing more
to be said for the movement except
what has been told by the Telegram,
and vet it feels that it has not done
its full duty without urging once
more that the stock required to as
sure naturalization of the move
| ment should be subscribed at once.

FATHER JEANMARD.
OOeS From the Cathedral to the
Archbishopric.
N. o. Picayune.

Rev. Jules B. Jeanmard, whom
Archbishop Blenk has selected
to fill the position of private Sec
rotary, has accepted the honor
most willingly and obediently,
while regretting in some wistful
manner to leave the historic pre-
cincts of the old St. Louis Cathe-
dral, where he has been as
sistant priest for the past two
years. Father Jeanmard had be-
gun to love the venerable edifice,
so rich in tradition and legend;
and he was satisfied with his
daily work as assistant to the
kind and paternal pastor, the
Very Rev. Father j. M. Laval;
but all such considerations
yielded before duty when the
Archbishop called, and he will
take charge of his secretaryship
today.
Father Jeanmard is a native of
Breaux Bridge, st. Marin par
ish. He belongs to one of the
old and respectable Creole fami-
lies of French descent in the At.
takapas Country. His father and
mother are residents of Lafa-
yette, and are highly-esteemed
by all. The elder Jeanmard was
a planter, but for some years he
has been living in retirement, en-.
joying the fruits of a long and
honorable career. Their whole
life was conferred on their son,
and when he showed in early
youth a disposition for pious pur-
suits. they encouraged him, and
gladly sent him to the Benedic-
tine College, at PonchatOula,
where he made his classical stud
les. He next studied philosophy
at Kenrick College, st. Louis,
and on his return entered the
Diocesan Seminary in this city,
to study theology. He graduated
in 1903 and soon after was or
dained by the late Archbishop
Chapelle. together with Rev. l..
j. Kavanagh, now pastor of the
Church of Our Lady of Lourdes;
Rev. VIM. j. Vincent, now as
sistant priest a. the Cathedral;
Rev. M. Francon, nov assistant
to Rev. Bouchet. at Plattonville.
They were the last prie>oS or
dained by Archbishop Cnapeile.

CONWCTS TOUCHING
PETITION.

In his lecture on ssThe Fiddle
and the Bow, Gov. Taylor, of
Tennessee, relates the following
pathetic incident:
One bright morning, just be-
fore Christmas day, an official
stood in the executive chamber in
my presence as Governor of Ten
nessee, and said:
"Governor, 1 have been i'm
plored by poor miserable wretch
in the penitentiary to bring you
this rude fiddle. 1t was made by
his own hands with penknife
during the hours allotted to HIM
for rest. 1t is absolutely value
less, it is true, but it is his petition
TO you for mercy. He begged me
to say that he has neither attor-
neys nor influential friends to
plead for him; that he is poor,
and all he asks is, that when the
Governor shall sit at his own hap
py fireside on Christmas eve, with
his own happy children around
him, he will play one tune on this
rough fiddle and think of a cabin
far away in the mountains whose
hearth-stone is cold and desolate
and surrounded by family of
poorlittle wretched, ragged child
rem, crying for bread and waiting,
and listening for the footsteps of
their father"
Who would not have been
touched by such an appeal? The
record was examined; Christmas
eve came; the Governor sat that
night at his own happy fireside,
surrounded by his own happy
children and he played one tune
to them on the rough fiddle. The
hearthstone of the cabin in the
mountains was bright and warm;
a pardoned prisoner sat with his
baby on his knee, surrounded by
his rejoicing children, and in the
presence ofhis wife, and although
there was naught but poverty
around him, his heart sang: BE
it ever SO humble, there's no place
like home," and then he reached
up and snatched his fiddle down
from the wall, and played "Jor

Hit. the Nail on the Head.

The following from the Okmul-
gee dnd, IT, Democrat, contains
about as much gospel truth as
could be crowded into that much
space and certainly voices the
sentiments of not few country
publishers:
GA man may use the mole on
the back of his neck for a collar
button; he may ride a freight
to save three cents mile; he may
light lamp with e splinter to
save matches; he may stop his
watch at night to save wear; use
a period for semicolon to save
ink, and pasture his grand-moth-
er's grave to save hay; but man
ofthis kind is scholar and gem
tleman compared to q man who
will take a newspaper and when
asked to,pay for it put it back in
the postofice, marked ssRefused. +"

SAME OLD BUzzARD.
Farmer Scott Thinks it Followed
Him From Florida to Ohio.

A dispatch from Marysville,
Ohio, says the same buzzard that
was seen in various parts of Union
county several years ago, with a
bell tied around Its neck, has
again put in its appearance in
Taylor township. Two years ago
Leroy Scott, a farmer of Lees
burg township, while at st. Pc
tersburg, Fla, saw what was be-
lleyed to be the same buzzard.
1t still remains mystery how the
bell came to be tied to the buz-
zard.
