OFFICIAL STATEMENT.
Prof Willis Moore Makes Report on
Quake.

An official statement concerning the
Kingston earthquake issued by the
weather bureau this afternoon, and signed
by Prof. Willis L. Moore. states:
Judging from the magnitude Of the mo-
ton recorded at Washington, we regard the
present disturbance as of relatively slight
intensity as compared with other recent
great earthquakes. as, for example, those at
San Francisco and Valparaiso. and the great
earthquake reported in the Indian ocean
on October /. 1906 This is especially true
in view of the fact that the distance of
Kingston from Washington is only about
1,420 miles, while San Francisco Is at a
distance Of 2. 435 miles. and Valparaiso Is
about 1900 miles; that is, nearly three and
half times as far away as Kingston. both
lying almost exactly south of Washington.
The amplitude of the motion at Washing
ton in the present case is distinctly less
than in each off the other great earth
quakes, and we may therefore conclude
that the violence Of the motion at King
ston was also less.

of swftchmen on the Buffalo Creek railroad
was settled yesterday and the men returned
to work last night. The state board of

AN osLlelNe PATRON.


On yesterday evening we reminded
our subscribers in very modest way
that we could use very easily during
the dull summer months all the circu-
lation money that could be collected,
and drew a picture Of the handsome
pile of money that as much as $1.0O
from each Of our many subscribers
would make. Mr.. ]. D. Radford, Of the
First ward, was the first to respond TO
our request, as he was at the Office
bright and early this morning, and
suspectlng that he had read our re-
quest and that he appreciated our
needs as well as the needs Of all news
paper offices, he was asked the fol-
lowing question: "Mr. Radford, how
did It happen that you came around
so early this morning?" WELL" he
replied, II saw your article in yester.
days paper and as l had been intend.
ing to come in for some time thought
| would accommodate you now by
complying with your request" Now
don't You know that this little incident
was greatly Appreciated by, the West
virginla1P.- We are well pleased with
Mr.. Radford and Mr.. Radford is well
pleased with his paper. 1t is indeed
a pleasure to do business of this kind
when satisfaction is given by both
parties. We want more Mr.. Radfords
and We expect to see many of them
before the end of the present week. If
it is not convenient to come into the
Office the mails will bring your remit,
lance to US just as well and while we
like to meet all our patrons face to
face occasionally, we will appreciate
the remittance by mail equally as
much.

SILL LONGING FoR THE Jupeg

STILL LONGING FOR THE JUDGE.
The Wheeling Intelligencer talks
very nicely about Ex-Governor White
but its first love seems to be Judge
Mason for Governor according to the
following in to-day's paper:
despite the fact that Governor
White would be in many respects, an
ideal candidate for governor, and what
is more important, an ideal governor,
the Intelligencer still clings to the
hope that Judge John W. Mason will
yet consent to make the race for the
nomination. The large majority Of
the people who would support Gov
ernor White would be satisfied with
the nomination Of Judge Mason. Mr..
White, the Intelligencer has every rea.
son to believe, is not a willing candi-
date. He will be candidate il he be.
lleves that his candidacy will best
serve the popular REFORMS which he
has advocated. In Judge Mason's
hands these reforms will be safe;
there will at least be no backward
step. The policy which the Republi.
can party has adopted will be main.
tanned and developed to its legitimate
conclusions. To avert a bitter politi-
cal battle, which no one seeks, but
which under certain candidates, it is
better to seek than to avoid, Judge
Mason Is the man of the hour"

CRY OF ROBBERY"
Florida Growers Say They are Cheated
BY Dishonest Commission Men.

IL has been suggested by a prorni-
nent local orange grower that it would
be a good idea if the growers and
shippers of the state could get to-
gether and form blacklist of the dis
honest commission merchants. 1t is
said that every season the shippers
of fruit are swindled out of consid-
cradle portion of their profits by those
sharks. who through fair promises and
catchy circulars and advertisements,
secure shipments of fruit, and then,
through one pretext or another vir-
tually steal the whole shipment. If
the growers and shippers could get
together in some way at the end of
each season and compare notes, these
v-ltures could be eliminated entirely
and il would tend TO make the COM
mission merchants who are honest,
out careless, more careful in making
their returns.-Kissimee (Fla.) Val

Il am going TO take my vacation
next week" said the bartender. as he
tried to dry the bar with a wet cloth.
I'll take mine then too" said a
clerk in a cigar store.
Strange time for a vacation, said
the skate salesman.
Nit; it's the best time. It's the
best time in the year." said the bar
tender.
Drink mixers and tobacconists and
club attendants are in no demand at
all the first two weeks of January. It's

days that most bartenders and cigar
store clerks and club servants take
their vacation. "-Philadelphia Bulle'
