NAME YOUR MAN.

The Daily Telegraph this morn
Ing seeks to bolster up the mon
strous statement of its reporter, Mr..
Morgan, in regard to the Bennett
matter by saying:
The Daily Telegraph gives space
to the foregoing letter-not because
1T believes 1t erred in any way in
the report of Mr.. Benefits speech
to which the signers take excep-
tions, but rather because it has al
ways been, and will continue to be,
the policy of this paper to allow
both sides an opportunity to be
heard. In the matter of whether or
not Mr.. Bennett referred to the peo-
pie of the suburbs OF Weston as
the ,riffraff of the population"
question of veracity is involved, and
we take it that the word of the
Daily Telegraph's reporter who was
assigned to the Bennett meeting,
supported as it Is by others who
heard the speech, among them sew
habit of uttering falsehoods, is as
good as the word of any signer of
the letter that introduces this arti-
Gle"
The editor and manager of the
Daily Leader knows that Mr.. Ben
nett did not use the language at
tributed to him, or anything that
could have been perverted or con-
strued into anything like such lam
suage. and we defy the Telegraph
20 name a single Democrat or re-
spectacle Republican who will say
that Mr.. Bennett used the language
attributed to him. Mr.. Benefits
hearers were shocked when they
read the report in the Telegraph,
and when it was shown 10 Mr.. Ben
nett he denounced 1T in most pos
tive language as a falsehood. 1t
would be utterly unnecessary to no.
tice the statement here where Nor
gan is known, but the statement
was never intended for the peo-
pie of Mercer county but for use
in other section of the state and for
that reason we call attention to T..
Will the Telegraph deny that the
Bluefield-G Graham Chamber Of Com
merce, a non-partisan business or
ganization, requested the Telegraph
not to send this same Morgan 20
report it's proceedings because his
statements were unreliable? IS

AN AMUSING INCIDENT

An amusing and disconcerting in
cident of the Taft meeting a. Wheel
Ing is told in the following extract
from the Registers report of the
meeting:
THE EMPTY DINNER PAIL.
Undoubtedly the hit Of the even
ing was made by an island boy, who
marched through the crowds on
Market street, accompanied by a
number of his young friends, carry
ing a long pole, to which was sus-
pended an empty dilner pail. There
was no placard, it was not needed.
The crowds on the sidewalk under.
stood the siEni icance Of the island
lads device. and he was en4husi-
astically applauded. This was ten
minutes before the head Of the col
umn swung irto the street.
The boy was accorded an almost
continuous ovation from sixteenth
street to a point on Market street,
south of Eleventh, where Officer
Walker rushed. out through the
crowd and placed him under arrest,
over the protests of many Of the
crowd, who listed that he had
committed no violation OF the law.
He will proba bly, be arraigled I'm
police court this morning. and asked
to show cause ff any, why he should
carry an empty dinner pail

a Pair of Poets,

Hearing a noise in the street before
his house one morning, Robert Brown
ing, the poet, went to his window and
saw great crowd gazing at some
Cinnamon in gorgeous costumes who
were just leaving their carriages to
mount his steps. Presently they were
announced as the Chinese minister at
the court Of st. James and his suit.
A solemn presentation having taken
place, Browning said to the interpreter,
MAY l ask to what l am indebted for
the honor of his excellency's visit:"
The interpreter replied, His excellen-
cy is poet in his own country"
Thereupon he two poets shook hands
heartily. Browning then said, May |
ask to what branch Of poetry his ex-
cellency devotes himself?" To which
the interpreter answered, His excel
lency devotes himself to poetical enig-
mas" At this Browning, recognizing
fully the comic element in the situa-
ton, extended his hand most cordially,
saying: His excellency is thrice wei
come. He is brother indeedn'

When the Sun Grows Cold.

DR.. Fridjof hansen predicts the fate
of the earth in the far distant future,
when the sun grows cold. The SIM
pie, low organisms, he says, will prob
ably live longest, until even they dis
appear. Finally, he says, all water on
the earth's surface will freeze and the
oceans will be transformed into ice to
the bottom. Some time later the car
bonic acid of the atmosphere will be-
gin to fall on the surface of the earth
in the form of snow. Some time after
that the temperature on the surface
will have reached about $50 degrees
below zero F. New oceans will then
be formed by the atmosphere being
turned into liquid, and the atmosphere
of that future earth will be only n.y.
drogen and helium. The sun will go
through the same process. 1t will con-
| tinue in it's way as a dark star through
space, accompanied by the planets.

Mrs. s. was in a Richmond hospital,
and she was lonely, so welcomed the
advent of a very black and very Ian

The wagons of 1.-The greatest show

daybreak. Their incessant rumble
soon awakened ten-year-old Billie and
his five-year-old brother Robert. Their
mother feigned sleep as the two white
robed figures crept past her bed into the
hall on the way to investigate. Robert
struggled manfully with the unaccus-
toned task of putting on his clothes.
"Wait for me. Billie" his mother heard

NOW IS BEST
TIME TO TAKE
Directions To Prepare Simple, Yet
Remarkable Home Mixture.

A well-knovn authority on Rneu-
matism gives the following valuable
though simple and harmless pre-
scription, which any one can easily
prepai at home:
Fluid Extlact Ilandei'Un. one half
ounce; Compound Kargoi,. one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking well in a bottle.
and take a teaspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
He states that the ingredients can
be obtained from any good prescrip-
ton pharmacy at small cost, and.
being of vegetable extraction, are
harmless to take.
This pleasant mixture, if taken
regularly for a few days, is said to
overcome almost any case of Rheu-
matism. The pain and swelling, if
any, diminishes with each dose until
permanent results are obtained, and
without injuring the stomach. While
there are many so-called Rheuma-
tism remedies, patent medicines,
etc., some Of which do give relief,
few really give permanent results,
and the above will, no doubt, be
greatly appreciated by many suffer
ers here at this time.
Inquiry at the drug stores OF this
neighborhood elicits the information
that these drugs are harmless and
can be bought separately, or the
druggists here will mix the prescrip-
ton for our readers if asked
to. 17-3t.

ing day; the sundogs hung in the red
dawn; the wind hardly stirred over
the crisp grass; and though the sky
was cloudless yet the weather had that
queer. smoky, hazy look that it is most
apt to take on during the time Of the
Indian summer. From a high spur of
the table-land we looked out far and
wide over great stretch of broken
country, the brown of whose hills and
valleys was varied everywhere by
patches of dull red and vivid yellow,
tokens that the trees were already put
ting on the dress with which they
greet the mortal ripening of the year.
The deep and narrow bat smooth ra-
vines running up towards the edges
of the plateaus were heavily wooded.
the bright green tree tops rising to
height they rarely reach in the bar
rem plains-country; and the rocky
sides of the sheer gorges were clad
with thick growth of dwarfed cedars.
while here and there the trailing Vir-
ginia creepers burned crimson among
their som bre masses.
We hunted stealthily up-wind. across
the line Of the heavily timbered con
lies. We soon saw traces of our
quarry; old tracks at first. then the
fresh footprints of a single eliza bull,
judging by the size-which had come
down to drink at mirey alkali pool.
| it's feet slipping SO as to leave the
marks of the false hoofs in the soft
soil. We hunted with painstaking and
noiseless care for many hours; at last
| as l led old Manitou up to look over
the edge of a narrow ravine. there was
a crash and movement in the timber
below me. and Immediately afterwards
I caught a glimpse of a great bull elk
trotting up through the young trees as
he CALAMITY breasted the steep hillside
opposite. When clear of the woods.
and directly across the valley from me,
he stopped and turned half round,
throwing his head in the air to gaze
for moment at the intruder. My bull
let struck too far back, but, neverthe-
less, made deadly wound, and the elk
went over the crest Of the hill at a
wild, plunging gallop. We followed
the bloody trail for quarter Of a
mile, and found him dead In thicket.
Though of large size, he yet had but
small antlers, with few points.
