that 10 future he offer his services to the

Saturday evening and night re-
minded one of the holiday season so
far as throngs of people are con-
cerned. Every street car brought in
all the people it could carry. Every
one had money. too. Every one
came in to spend some of it. The
enterprising merchant who carries
an advertisement just as much up
to-date as during the holiday season
got most OF the trade. The lesson Is
to advertise constantly and do bust
ness every week as well as during
the holiday weeks. The people are
here. the work is here, the money Is
here, and they are always buying.
Meet them half way by letting them
know you are sti1l in business and
want their trade now Just as much
as in the past.

CHARLESTON, Jan. Ex-senator
A. K. Thorn. Of Clarksburg, is one
of the hard workers of the present
session and later a great deal is ex-
pected of him. He has already In
troduced number Of bills Of more
or less Importance and he has a
number of others in course Of prep
aration which will be introduced in
a short time. He is well posted on
the method of procedure and has a
good voice and commanding pres
ence, which stand him in good stead.
He promises to develop into one of
the important and most hard working
members in the senate and will dis
charge the duties of his office with
such satisfaction to his friends and
credit to himself, that he will be re-
turned the next election.

Memorial Services.

The solemn memorial services
that are held In Clarksburg from
time to time by the local secret and
fraternal organizations, while look
ed upon by many as perfunctory
ceremonial held for the purpose of
carrying out established rituals of
the orders to pay tributes to their
dead, mean more than this alone.
Besides recalling memories of the
departed, such occasions remind the
living members that death is likely
to come to them at any time. 1t
teaches them the necessity OF pre-
pairing to meet death. In order to
be so prepared they are persuaded
10 live clean, upright lives, further
the spirit Of fraternal love among
themselves and their fellowmen, to
do unto others as they would be
done by, to more keenly feel the
duties of home and family ties, to
remember their moral and civic OBJ
legations and to reflect upon their
spiritual condition. In the rush and
hustle of business life and in the
swiftly gliding hours OF entertain
ment and pleasure that follow neces-
sarily for relaxation, these things
are overlooked. The thought of
death and of the future life is for
gotten. These memorial services
held by number of men banded to-
gether for their mutual improve
ment and protection remind them Of
these important things.
So, whenever lodge or society
holds memorial services. they should
be looked upon by their friends as a
thing commendable and a thing for
good. And 1t will be no waste of
time for their friends to attend the
services for it will do them good,
too.

street car tracks. Women should
adorn themselves with anything that
will add to their beauty and at
tractiveness. In fact. any one ought
to exert efforts to make ones self
as presentable and attractive as the
circumstances warrant Many fool
ish things are done, however, in the
name OF fashion and 1t is no secret
information that many women make
fools OF themselves over prevailing
fads and notions.

such mania with proper applications

other Side Of Suit.

The newspapers generally have
been giving the independent coal
operators side OF the story in refer
ence to the suit recently instituted
against the Baltimore & Ohio Rail
road Company and a number Of coal
companies over the matter Of alleg-
ed discrimination. Now, 1t is but
fair TO state the other side Of the
suit. since that side itself has given
out information on the subject, ex-
planatory Of its claims.
, Here is what Mr.. John g. VIII
son, assistant general attorney for
the railroad, says on the subject:
Our records will show that when
the F'airmont Coal Company, which.
it is alleged, is being favored. was
formed, 1t bought up about 80 per
cent. Of the mines in the West vir-
ginia field. Therefore 1t controlled
so per cent. Of the output of that
region. and was entitled to 80 per
cent. of the cars. Now its output is
so per cent and 1t gets only about
60 per cent. of the cars"
On the private car question ne
says the Baltimore G Ohio is under
an injunction to handle private cars
of the Fairmont company. During
the receivership, when the road was
not in position to secure sufficient
equipment, the court decided that
the coal company could build its own
cars. and that the railroad should
handle them. When the road tried
to do away with all private cars
about three years ago. the Fairmont
company brought suit in West vir-
ginia to secure an injunction and
won the case. Two months ago, in
Columbus. o., Mr.. Wilson points out
Judge Thomson, of the United States
Circuit Court for that district, rem
dered decision which also obliges
the road to handle private cars. Suit
was brought by the Riverdale Coal
Company to prevent the road from
handling the private cars of the
Fairmont company, and 1t was de-
cided that 1t should continue to
handle them.

Charleston Walls.

The subject of removing the capi-
tai of The State is to the Charleston
papers what running sore is to a
dog. Every time the sore is touch
ed 1t breaks out afresh. Those

people know that violets bloom here
in midwinter. They simply can not

A French Fashion.

No doubt large number of hus-
bands and fathers read the latest
news from the French seat of fashion
about the sprinkling of gold and sill
yer upon gowns with feelings OF dis
may and disapproval.
A touch Of either gold or silver is
to be the thing, the news dispatches
relate, on nearly all the newest
French gowns, while in ribbon
rosettes or in large roses or other
flowers silver and gold cloth trim
any number of the smartest hats. In
embroidery, worked direct upon the
material or laid on as trimming, or
in fine textures as net and chiffon
woven in with the mesh itself.
gold or silver is always effective.
Needless to state, all new trimming
must be cleverly handled and not
used in too great profusion, else
they will lose at once the very
style for which they aim.
\ While a touch of silver or gold
might add to the effectiveness of
some womens gowns, it is to be
hoped that the idea will not he
come widely popular. Besides the
expensiyeness of the idea, too elab-
crate, ornamentation detracts from
beauty rather than adds to 1t. Elab-
crate simplicity is far better than
simple elaborateness. The caution
to handle gold and silver trimmings
with care as to profusion may we'll
be. and likely will be, adhered to.
Should the idea become popular
we may expect to see some women

The introduction of so many rail-
road rate bills In the legislature is
not good sign. Most of them ought
to be pigeonholed at once and a
single good bill settled upon and
passed. The people will not stand
to be fooled in this respect and 1t is
hoped no legislator will attempt to
fool them. Give us a two-cent rate
as proposed on all railroads over
twenty miles in length and two
cent rates on those. too. If 1T be
