FIRST SHIPMENT MADE.

by Pierpont & Watson in July, 1854.

was associated with Mr.. Watson in
hIs carly mining ventures. Tile ef'
forts to market the product at once
met with opposition and man3 disap
pointmeats. losses and anaoyances
were due to the repeated attempts Of
wealthy operators In other and older
coal regions to belittle the Farmont
product and shut out the operators on
a small scale. That determination
Characteristic Of the early as well as
the modern West Yirginians, native
and adopted, asserted itself and the
Fairmont operators were able TO place
their product unon au equaly footing
with that of other regions as the quail

POWER OF CHARITIES.

| know no other church so entirely
a house of prayer. Everybody who
goes to it will tell you the same thing.
Charities has still the gift of a
unique power of impressing," Pater
says, stirred by the esthetic value of
religion in such a setting. Nowhere
does one pray SO well as at Charities"
Huysmans says, feeling its power
more intimately. 1t is not easy to
explain just why this should be, any
more than why, out of an endless gal
lery of Madonnas, a rare canvas by
Pierro della Francesca. or Bellini,
will catch the eye and haunt the
memory. Piety would have been as
poor an equipment for the builder of
cathedrals as for the painter of Ma
donnas. Nor is the fact that the ar
chitecture of Charities belongs to the
period of Gothic masterpieces a suffi-
cient explanation. Paris and Bourges
