OF PICkENS

GRAFTON, August 14,-Dr. A. r..
Warder, oil this city, member of the
state board of health, acting upon the
specific orders of his board, spent Sat
urday at Plckens with George Rashid,
the Syrian leper. and the following re-
port, being possibly the only report
ever made in an official manner con-
cerning the condition OF the man, has
been forwarded by DIR. Warden to DR..
Hugh s. Barbee. secretary and execu-
tive officer of the board.
GRAFTON. w. Va, August II.
DR.. H. $. Barbee, Point Pleasant. w.
Va.
Dear Mr. Barbee-I went to Picksns
last night, August 10. and found the
facts concerning the leper, as given
to me by himself, under oath, and in
the presence of witnesses, to be as
follows: NJ. George Raschtd was born
in Beirut Syria. twenty-five years ago.
Came to America, landing in New
York. Went Immediately to Water
ville, Maine, where he lived nine
months, moving to Michigan City, IN
diana, and staying one month. He
then moved to Uniontown, Pa, re-
naming six or seven months. then
went to CIarksburg, w. Va, where he
lived one year and spent three months
Of that time in ons If the hospitals
there. From Clarksburg he drifted to
Redwood Nicholas county, staying
six months, and thence to Confluence,
Pa, for four months; to Philippi, Bar
bour county, where he lived one
month. When living in Uniontown he
first became aware of the symptoms
OF his disease, but did not get sick
until he got to CIarksburg and as been
unable to do any work since leaving
Uniontown. Before leaving his ma
tive country he saw two men afficted
as he Is, but very much worse. He
thinks this is the source OF his trou'
BILE. The disease is OF the tubercu.
losis form not yet far advanced. he
is surrounded by every comfort that
hospltabe, charitable people, such
as are found at Ptckens, can procure
for him: The newspaper reports CON
cerning him are fabrications pure and
simple, created and devised by an oy-
er.fertile Imagination. He says he has
more thanhe can possibly eat chick
en-. corn, vatermeIons, beans, pies
cake, etc His one absorbing desire
Is to get back to his native land IN
stead ot three thousand dollars the

order of County Health Officer DR.. /.
"a. Boswortf. of Huttonsyille, Is look
ing after him in very gratifying man
ner. The Baltimore 6, Ohio has been
providing everything needed, SO you
see he has had all the attention his
fellow men can give him. The news
papers report of his taking bath in
the river is untrue, for he has a de-
cided aversion to water, and the
guards have some trouble in getting
him to wash his face and hands. I
hope this case can be returned to
Syria, since it is not quite three and
a half years since he came here, and
evidently he had contracted the trou-
Bile before he came Let me hear
from you on this matter.
Very respectfully,

The contract for the brick work Of

fifteen brick houses, and the chimneys
in all of the buildings. The work is to
be begun at once.
To complete the work, there will

Hammond fire brick will be used in
the foundations, white bricks on the

IA planning mill will be placed With
in the next few days at the site Of
the new buildings. 1t will be most
complete plant, and will be used by
the Nicola Building Company in cut

this way, great time will be saved in
getting the lumber ready for the car;

for the mill, which will be here in
day OF SO. In addition to the mill
which is on the way, five car loads Of
lumber are also on the way here:
This is an exceedingly small number
of cars which will be required, yet it
is enough to show the great rush with
which the many details of the new
buildings are being handled.
Local Concerns Favored.
The architects and builders of the
City are loud in their praise OF the
methods which are being pursued by
the Nicola Building Company, of Pitts
burg, which was the successful firm
in securing the contract for building
the houses. Whenever local business
men can be patronized, it is done. So
far the Pittsburgers have found the
local people perfectly satisfactory in
every way. Nothing has yet been

TURN TRAITORS
10 THE ! PEOPLE.

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE Brook
lsn Rapid Transit still continues Its
reign ok violence in its efforts to col
lest the additional Scent fare tc
cohey Island, which Justice Gaynor
declared illegal, and patrons of the
road are subject to violence and bru
tallty. The police instead Of protect
ing passengers from insult are nov
aiding the hired bouncers Of the road
to- collect the extra fares. One girl
IS dead and another badly injured as
d result of assaults and ejectment from
the company's cars and Coney Island
isspfacticaIly marooned today because
! the company has suspended its sum
ner5 Schedule, in order to wiring the
eYtra fares from the public. More
than q thousand people were held up
alis night night between the city and
the island on cars which the com
spany stalled. when the additional 8
cents could not be collected.
Innnmerable damage suits are Ger.
tain follow. The body of Miss Fan.
nile Rodinski, daughter Of a rabbi OF
Brooklyn was found under a culvert
route trestle over coney Island creek
with her badly injured, was Miss
Emma slninger. both Of whom were
thrown from car by the inspectors.
Notwithstanding they had paid the
double fare demanded.
Frightened by threats from various
sciyil bodies, that unless there is full
resumption Of traffic on the Coney
Island lines moves will be made to
have the charter the Brooklyn Rap.
i'd Transit annulled, the company to-
day resumed trolley service to the
island. AS ON previous occasions,
however, passengers who refused ex-
|stra fare were thrown from tae cars
There is much conflict between the
city, police and railroad authorities
and governor Higgins will probably be
appealed to.

contract for building the new glass

Grading for Car Barn.
The grading for the new car barn
for the traction company is being
rushed as much as ever. A large num-

site of the car barn had to be graded
something near forty feet before it
would be on level with Virginia ave

The Buttoned Boots.

Annie Amelia was happy. She did
not know why. She opened one brown
eye to see if day had really come. A
streak of sunshine lay across the foot
of her bed. Then she remembered why
she was so very happy. Papa had gone
to the city, miles away, the day before,
and had promised to bring her pres
ent when he came home.
Annie Amelia opened her eyes Wild
er, and looked sharply about to see II
she could see her present. A chair
stood close by her bed. 1t had not
been there when she went to sleep. She
gave little gasp of pleasure, and
raised herself on one elbow. On the
chair stood a brand-new pair Of shiny
black buttoned boots! Soft, pretty kid
boots they were, with silk-worked but
tonholes.
This all happened many years ago,
when buttoned boots were only just
beginning to be made, and they cost
more than common boots that laced.
Annie Amelia's mamma was i'll, and
there were so many things for papa to
buy that everything had to be made
to last as long as possible. New boots

The list of soft and appropriate silk
is long one, and there are also great
many lovely wool and silk and wool
fabrics that are equally in vogue.
When yoke and long sleeves are added
1t becomes, of course, much simpler

These last are exceedingly handsome
made of lace, but can be of the material
trimmed or of embroidery or tucked

material that may please the fancy.
The waist is made with fitted lin
ing, which is faced to form the yoke,
and on which the full fronts and back
are arranged. The bertha is shaped
In becoming points and is gathered
to form q little frill at the back edge.
The short puffs also are mounted over

shlrrings at their lower edges.
