If Mrs. Harry Thaw's story of her

ed, when he was killed. and Harry
Thaw himself ought to have been sent
to an asylum for idiots, when he pro,
posed 70 her. Better still, Mrs. Thaw's
mother ought to be serving time. The
girl should not have been sent out to
earn money to support the family, OF

her overheard the moment the verdict

A very important and remarkable
discovery" has been made relative
to the deficit in the postal receipts
of the United States government. Ac-
cording to a report recently made to
House Committee on Postofices and
Postroads the postage on matter sent
free by the government departments
and government officials amounts to
at least 100000 annually. Indeed
the committee suggests that the mail
ranked by government officials would
account for THE entire deficit of s1o,-
516.sse In 1906. 1nasmuch as a great
deal of the mail so ranked is of no
earthly good to anyone and is never
even opened by the persons to whom
1T is sent, there is certainly room for
reform in that branch OF the service.

this morning at II O'Clock, was taken
up for consideration in the Senate.
Senator White, Of Mingo county, In
troduced an amendment to strike out
the enaeting clause. In support OF
his amendment, he said that the Sen.
ator who was the author OF the bill
came from Grant county where condi-
tons were decidedly different from
what they were in the counties Of
Kanawha, Mingo and Mcdowell. I'm.
the county Of Grant the land settlers
have not changed In fifty years, while
in the majority of other counties OF
the State they have changed six AMI
seven times in the same number of
years. The salaries as allowed for
the sherfffs and county clerks It is
claimed are not sufficient for them TO
employ their deputies" concluded the
Senator. The bill was still being con-
sidered when a motion for adjourn
ment carried. Neither House will DE

SMITHFrELD, VI. va. Feb. o.
The people of smithield are neither

some correspondents have character

Justly so at the atdactous ISLANDERS
and libels which have been publish.
ed broadcast concerning the town and
It's residents. All these stories n
course, had their origin in the tncen.
diary and murderous acts of Harry
Howard. Y
The stories that systematic attempts
have recently been made to fire the
whole town are false. Aside from the
fire started by Howard there has been
only one co~nfaerat;o, Within tho ,.s,
three years. The fact that this was n
frame building. the origin of tho fire
accounted for. and the adjacent frame
building vas saved by the sniendta
work of the volunteer Are department
speaks for itself.
Not a single fire insurance po,;ev
has been cancelled within the nast
year, and the companies carrying risk.
here have taken no action in that al.
rection. The promptness. skill ami
efficiency of the local fire department
in q%uenching the fires mentioned and
saving adjacent frame buildings.
The local fire department and pump.

praised. The. water supply is annie

such that in a few minutes a sufficient
volume of water can be turned on any
