Singing to Keep Step.

Out the statutes or the Lord were
more than sacred memory OF the
scenes of David's boyhood. They were
the songs by which the young man
and the middle aged man kept step in
the journey of life. Just the same as
the German soldiers when on line of
march invariably start up one Of their
national airs and sing as they tramp
along and all in unison keep step to
the music, so this marvellous man OF

during his journey of life and sang

WANTS TO MARRY
BUT GAN NOT
Manuel Fogg Up Against Real OBJ
stacles in Procuring
Marriage License.

Cupid is not treating Manuel Fogg
to his liking. Manuel applied Sat.
urday morning for marriage Ii
cense, naming Mrs. Bertha Dalton
as 'hlsiintended bride. Deputy Clerk
Roy Byrd began to write the license,
glad to. accommodate him, but soon
threw up his hands in disappoint-
ment, for the questions propounded
were not satisfactorily answered by
Manuel. He had procured a license
prior to the present to marry Al
yernia NJ. Weaver, but stated that
he did not use it. He made an
AFFIDAVIT to this effect, but another
obstacle presented itself in that he
did not know whether Mrs. Dalton's
husband was dead or whether she
was divorced. except that she had
told him Dalton was dead. Until
he satisfies the clerk in this respect,
ne will have to remain in single
hlessedness or wretchedness, as one
chooses to call 1t.

hundred men are out and the SER
vice is now maintained in the Offices
Of both companies by the officials
including the chiefs together with
one or two men and women who re-

General Superintendent Jaynes Of

the statement that the companies
will hold no conferences with offic-

not come to an agreement with them
the operators in other cities may be
called out, thus tying up all com

JAIL NOW SIARES GAMBLERS IN THE FACE
MAYOR Grille PRoMULGATEs
AN ORDER 1sGzATIyE TO
GAMBLERS AND GAMB-
LING HOUSES.
JAIL SENTENCE THE PENALTY.
Gambling AND GAMBLING
HOUSES WILL NOT BE PER-
sIITTED HERE THIS
YEAR BY HIM.
N SENTENCE THE PENALTY.

The mayor called a half dozen
men into his ONCE yesterday after
noon and informed them Of his in
tention in reference to gambling and
the operation Of gambling rooms.
The inference is that he had rea-
son to believe that gambling is going
ON in the city as, his line Of talk
would so indicate.
An order was promulgated by him
TO them that all persons found
gambling or running gambling
houses after tonight at midnight
would be liable to the heaviest fine
he could impose and Jail sentence
of thirty days.
The mayor stated in effect that
this order would be observed the re-
mainder OF his year as mayor. There
is city ordinance prohibiting
gambling and the operation of gamb-
ling houses as every one knows and
Mayor Grille, 1t seems from the line
OF talk he gave out to those he sum
moned before him yesterday after
noon, has decided to enforce It just
as he stated he would do, when, in
his speech accepting the nomination
last spring, that he would enforce
the ordinances of the city.
There is also plenty Of law to rid
the streets Of Objectionable charac-
tiers both male and female and 1T is
sincerely hoped by all decent people
that he will see that this is done.
Last year SO little attention W Z paid
to this feature that it became motor.
iously obnoxious and there was a
general demand fer better conditions
and it is hoped that demand may be
needed this year.
The public will watch with consid-
cradle interest the result Of the or
der in reference to gambling.

resentatiye of the Nixon and Zim-
norman theatrical company, is in
Clarksburg looking into the theatre
situation with the view Of leasing
any new opera house that may be in
contemplation here. There is no
definite movement, so far as is
known, towards the construction or
4 new theatre in this city, although
the proposition has been talked of a
number of times by enterprising
citizens.
Mr.. Browns concern has now a
string Of fifty or sixty houses in this
part of the country. some of them
owned outright and others leased.
They have one in Washington, one
IN Baltimore. one In Cumberland and
TWO in Parkersburg and they are
anxious to secure the lease of
house here sufficient to stage their
larger productions so as to break
the long jump between Cumberland
and Parkersburg or between Park
ersburg and Pittsburg. Because Of
the inadequate size of the Traders
opera hour and its small seating
capacity, theatrical agents and own
ers do not like tot send their larger
attractions to this city and a new
opera house Of appropriate size
would get these productions. Mr..
Brown is conferring with local ipeo-

haps he may accomplish something

These are the salient points of an
intensely interesting address made
by Judge Nathan Cor before the
clarksburg Board of Trade at the
meeting held in the court house Fri
day night and which was listened to
with enthusiastic attention by some
of the leading business men OF the
city. With the members of the
board he had heart-to-heart dis
cussion concerning the welfare and
development of the community and
he made some very valuable and
helpful suggestions.
Besides the address of Judge Cor
there we're splendid talks by Presi-
dent c. s. Smiley. Secretary g. e.

Mr.. Lamberd said that last year
the board had eighty-seven MEM
bers and that the thirty-six received
within the last few days would be
big help and a valuable addition to
the board. He said there is no rea-
son why the board should not have
membership of 800 this year and
that all efforts should be put forth
to make the membership that num-
he" as soon as possible.
Lack Of space forbids mention of
the several speeches besides the one
by Judge Goff but they were all very
interesting and contained many
helpful points concerning the com
mercial and industrial development
of the city.
