Prophet OF Sazareth had not promulga-

that David was to become the head Of
the nation.
When the test was applied to Saul,
David's worst fears were confirmed,

In evry fibre of his noble young man

presence, and In due time, by the use
of the pre-arranged signals, informed
David Of the result Of the test And
then at great personal risk to both,
they had one more interview. They
parted in tears, but with the sweet
consciousness that Jehovah stood be-
tween them and their descendants for
ever. David went away, fugitive
and an outlaw, guilty of no crime, and
with never thought of disloyalty In
his heart. 1t is doubtful if he saw
his young wife at all during this visit
Years elapsed before he saw her again
and then 1t was after she had long
been the wife of another man.
/ Once again in their lives, in the
wood at Ziph, the two friends met

NEW DOG TAX LAW
THE ASSESSOR is LOOKING AF.
TER CANNES.
The Year Promises To Be a Siren
uous One for the Unfortunate
cur

The busy assessor is now about
placing a value on your dog in &C,
cordance with the new dog and sheep
law, which becomes operative this
year. Under the law the assessor
fixes the value Of the dogs of the
county. The owners are taxed ac-
cording to the value which they may
list themselves. Many are placed as
high as 500 The tax of these is
rather high but the high tax is an in
surance against violence. Should any
one poison or kill your dog, you can
recover against them at law for the
amount at which the dog was listed.
There are also many flea bitten
onery looking ours which are listed
at an exceedingly low figure, and
which judging from the returns can
be bought for bargain prices.
Next year the dogs Oh which no
taxes have been paid, which are de-
linquent, have little show. The sher-
if either collects on every dog or
signs the dogs death warrant, and a
dog killer win be appointed by the
county court. 1t is early of course,
but as yet no applicants have been
heard from who desire this job.

added to the long list, at Berryville

picture show was being given in the
opera house. The machine exploded
setting fire to the draperies.
Men, women and children rushed to
the doors and windows and many car
ried window sashes with them. Cooler
heads stopped the panic and no one
was seriously injured.
After the excitement was over it
was declared that a Young man had
deserted the young lady he had es-
corted to the performance, having
rushed down the long stairway to the
street, leaving the girl to take care OF
herself. he was assisted by others.

GAME WARDENS LOSE
JUDGE ERANNoN's OPINION IN
MoNoNGALIA CASE.
sustains Judge Masons-Warden
Get No Fines and Very Little
Pay For Services.

Charleston, w va, Jan 23.-in an
opinion written by Judge Henry
Brannon and concurred in BY the
other members OF the supreme court
Of appeals. section 1914 OF the ammo
tated code on 1901, providing that
fines accruing from prosecutions IN
sfituted by deputy fish and game war
dens shall go to these officials, is de-
clared unconstitutional because OF its
glaring confiction with the constitu-
ton Of West Virginia
The opinion of the court was hand
ed down in the case of the state
against Robert Parkins, from Monon-
gala county, and the judgment Of the
lower court was affirmed. Bennett s.
White, as a deputy game and fish
warden. caused the indictment and
conviction of Robert Parkins In the
courts Of Monongalia county sor I'M
lawfully killing Virginia quail, and
caused the fines to .be paid into the
circuit court OF that county.
White then fled an application in
the circuit court claiming the fines for
his services as deputy warden, but
the court denied his right to the fine
money and declared the fines should
be paid to the sheriff to be accounted
for to the state treasury.
The effect Of this decision will be
to seriously cripple effective enforce
ment Of the laws for the protection of
game and fish, The wardens will re-
ceiye only the fees usually allowed to
officers, and few of them can afford
to give their time to active prosecu-
tons. The law should be amended,
giving the wardens small salaries
with the usual fees.

We understand there is a move
ment on foot looking to the appoint
ment of Senators Elkins and Scott as
delegates at large TO the republican
national convention. 1t is doubtful
whether West Virginia could send to
the convention stronger men. If the
object aimed at in the naming Of dele
gates is not simply to honor certain
men of the party. but men who would
have commanding influence in the
convention and secure for the state
recognition such as she deserves. then
the selection Of just such men as Sen
ators Elkins and Scott are the men to
appoint. The honor OF the state is
more than the honor Of men.
Kentucky Is still deadlocked in the
election of a o. S. senator.
