STRENUOUS TIMES AHEAZ

The Presidents accommodation to on
gress will receive but little attention .he
hands of the Republican leaders. as, the 10
not approve his ideas, though they d 9i
openly oppose them. An open breal
tween the President and the Repub can
leaders can only be prevented by the most
careful political management. Wher ihe
committees of Congress are announced 1t
will be noticed that Speaker Cannon has
taken care to keep the control Of legislation
in his own hands. His program Is to leave
we'll enough alone, pass the appropriation
bills and go home. If President Roosevelt
determines to force legislation on some of
his pet projects, there may be clash and a
conflict that will have far-reachlng political
consequences. The President Is said to have
more faith in the success Of his "policies" as
vote getter, than all the stand. pat argu-
ments that can be offered. As Speaker Can.
non Is a candidate for President, he must
defeat the Presidents plans and show his
absolute power over Congress, or the Ma
tional Convention will not consider him.
What with panics and politics, these be
strenuous times for our Republican brethren.

The Board 81 Trade,s Banauet.

A1S$hSS Va AAaNN AASAAAAA|NS
From the preparations that are
being made and the interest that is
being taken by those concerned, the
banqut to be given by the Clarksburg
Board of Trade at the Waldo next
Tuesday night will be highly sue
cessful and profitable affair.
There are about one hundred mem
bers of the Board Of Trade and ar
rangements have been made to have
places reserved for an additional one
hundred guests to be composed of
business men OF the city who are in
terested in the city's welfare, growth
and prosperity. Every business man,
merchant and manufacturer, whole
safer and retailer, who does not
now hold membership in the organ
ization should procure tickets,
which may be had of the secretary,
Mr.. Charles f. Lamberd, and attend
this meeting, not for the mere pur-
pose of the pleasure to be afforded
nor with the idea of helping the af-
fair along financially, but for the
general good towards the business
interests OF the community that will
be derived from the addresses and
the discussions OF the occasion.
The idea Of the business men of
the city assembling in such pleas
ing manner for discussion of their
community OF interests is a splendid
one. 1t will tend to bind the bonds
OF business friendship and co-opera-
ton closer together. 1t will fur
ther enable the business men of the
city to work intelligently and in
unity toward the development OF
their commercial and industrial in
terests. 1t will strengthen social
ties and in minor other ways pro-
mote be ter relationship among our
business men.
A wide-awake, active, board of
trade is a great help to any city; and
the good work that has already been
done by the Clarksburg board in It's
comparatively snort existence is
sufficient encouragement for the pro-
/ motion Of any enterprising move
ment that it may undertake. Those
who should and have not put hand
to the wheel ought to grab a spoke
now.

Abont Frnit skins.

Complaint is heard from various
persons against the throwing Of
banana, orange and other fruit skins
on the sidewalks Of the city. There
seems to be an excessive Indulgence
in this careless and reprehensible
habit on the part of a considerable
number of people.
Some time ago the Telegram call
ed the attention Of parents Of
school children to the duty OF in
structing their youngsters about
throwing fruit skins on the pave
pent as It appeared that these pain
making and manning things were
more numerous on the sidewalks
leading towards the public schools,
There is room yet for further in
struction along this line and parents
reading this should give their hope
fuls another reminder. But while
the school children are responsible
for considerable number of banana
skins and other Feelings on the
pavements. there are lot Of grown
ups, who ought to have better com
mon sense and higher regard for
the welfare and safety of their fell
low men, that are guilty of this care

they will unconselously step on a

sidewalk in front of them and get

behalf of a suffering and indignant
public, respectfully and prayerfully
asks that they please stop throwing
fruit skins on the sidewalk.

State Educational Work.

State Superintendent Of Schools
Miller is devoting much time to the
educational campaign he has in
augurated throughout the State.
He is of the opinion that the plan
will create desired interest towards
placing the condition Of the young
to a plane of equal rank with the de-
.velopment' of the State
Of the $4,000 youths enumerated
in 1906 the average attendance was
but 1873, or about 81 per cent of
The children of school age were in
school. The failure to get schools
taught during the regular school
period doubtless had much to do with
the low percentage, and here the
question of salary enters which is
giving the educators of the State so
much concern. The average per
capita per population in the United
States is $3.49 and in West Vir-
ginia $3.,23, but the average salary
paid to teachers in this State is only
$3.50 against s47.OS for the whole
country. In Massachusetts it is al
most three times the amount paid

Victim OF cod.

lAe concentration OF the minister,
who oficiated at the corey-Gilman
nuptials is most severe by many Of
the leading ministers of the country
but none too severe. And yet while
they are condemning him they seem
to overlook one of the most salient
points, as 1t appears from this dis
lance, SO far as the condemned and
transgresstng minister is concerned,
that of pelt. mere IS every reason
to believe that the man who perform
ed the cermony was well paid for it,
and, doubtless he was prompted by
a pecuniary consideration. What
other motive he had none know, but
all do feel that he recognized the
wrong he was about to do, and, thus,
what else could have moved him
from the right? Certainly, not COM
passion for the couple? Assuredly
not the notoriety? Certainly not
oversight? The only thing that the
Telegram can see that did induce
him to undertake to give divine
blessing to this wicked alliance was
the glitter of gold. The minister
paid the money hack after repent
ance, which shows money was the
influence that led him into error.
AS to the moral and religious eff
fects and the national disgrace his
act has brought the Telegram leaves
It to three we'll known ministers of
Pittsbdrg, as well as all other true
pastors, to tell.
Before a. congregation that filled
every seat in the North Avenue
Methodist Episcopal church, the Rev.
DR.. c. w Blodgett delivered SER
mon on Crime and Criminals" and
ended with an eloquent plea for the
purity of the home. DR.. Blodgett's
most significant reference was:
Men of wealth and influence are
not only untrue to their marital
VOWS, but they flaunt their iniquity
and shame in the face of the public
and seem to glory in it. They be-
come enamored OF chorus girls and
forget the pit from which they have
been dug. They run after strange
gods and seem only to remember the
grinning faces OF the girls with
whom they live in sin. Their do
ings are Haunted before the public,
to the torture of those they have
wronged."
Likening Mr.. Corey to modern
Dives, the Rev. U. S. Greves preach
ed sermon at the Forty-third Street
Presbyterian church, in which he
said:
We need not go farther than the
sSSxes Of France to find one, out Of
many examples our country is nm
fortunately furnishing the world,
whose greatest service TO the coun-
try would be to remain out Of it; a
man who deserves to be condemned
to wear the scarlet letter that shall
proclaim TO all the world his in
fanny by that flaming symbol. God
pity the Judge who granted him his
divorce! God pity the minister who
sealed the contract, which no human
law can ever make truly legal,
But what mercy or pity can he
expect who, in order to clasp hands
with painted actress, aad because
he had the wealth to secure man
made dispensation, sacrificed the
wife of his youth and the mother Of
his children?
The fault Of his predecessor,
which is said 10 have cost him his
position, was triaing in comparison
and less fraught with danger to the
great corporation which he directed,

CHAPTER XVIII.
In the Desert.

A grim, silent desert-a great level
horizon, lifeless, waterless, hopeless.
The sun, scorching ball of fire, was
now almost touching the unbroken
line of sand, and yet the heat he gave
forth was so strong, as parching, and
terribly merciless as that of the hot
test autumn noon in England.
Over the trackless plain traveller
was plodding painfully. One hand
held the bride of limping horse,
and on the poor brute's back was
huddled human form. This sorry
calcavade was steering toward the
setting sun little to the northward
of it,
The man who led the horse was
slightly above the medium height; a
brown oval face all caked with sand
and dirt; his short pointed beard
was dull and dusty. The huge tur-
ban on his head overshadowed the
upper part of his face, and from be-
meath it's shade there looked forth a
pair of eyes dark with sullen despair.
The man on horseback was of
slighter build. He was all huddled
up on the saddle, while his chin lit
orally rested on his breast His tur-
ban had come partly unrolled, and
the end of it hung down over his face.
Both hands grasped the high pommel
of the Tartar saddle; his legs swung
helplessly with each movement of the
horse.
Since sunrise they had been on the
| march, and the horse-a mere skel-
eton with Tapping ears and ungainly
neck-showed fatigue more than the
man walking at its side. Every now
and then the poor brute stumbled
forward as if about to drop from
sheer WEAKNESS, and on each occa-
sion the rider would slightly raise his
head. For some hours perfect ST.
lence had fallen over the two men;
their blackened lips were so hard
and dry as to render articulation
nearly impossible. Suddenly the
horse gave a great lurch forward,
and failing to recover himself, coll
lapsad sideways with piteous groan.
The man at its head dropped the
bride and with marvellous rapidity
slipped his arm round his compan-
ions dropping body.
Look out, PAUL" he exclaimed,
hoarsely, in Russian
The rider made no attempt to as
sist himself, and as the horse fell,
his full weight came upon his COM
panions who, however, managed to
