VS. WfttA4H , 4i0tE-
From The World of Saturday.
President McCrea, OF the PennsyE
vania railroad made his first trip over
the Cumberland Valley road today.
General Manager Atterbnry accom-
panied him. and General Manager M.
G. Kennedy of the Cumberland Valley
accompanied the party Of officials.
The party made the trip over the en-
tire main line. They went south,
passing through here at 11.55, and re-
turned at $50. They did not stop
here but a stop Of some time was
made at C~hambersburg.
Want to Lease Williams Grove,
1t is said the Cumberland Valley
railroad company contemplates maxi
ing some great Improvements to VIII
liams' Grove park in view of a twenty
five year lease which it is said the
company has secured on the grounds
from the Williams heirs at Williams
Mills, near the grove.
1t has been known that the Cum
berland Valley railroad company de-
sired to improve the park, which has
been the annual camping grounds OF
the PENNSYLVANIA Changers and where
daily from forty to fifty thousand peo-
pie from various parts of the state
gathered during he ummer
The railroad company plans to
build a number of new cottages, some
new pavillions and to wall the stream
there so that the water can be diver
ted to improve the picturesqueness of
the grove.
Big improvements Planned
President McCrea and the manage
ment OF the Pennsylvania railroad
yesterday gave additional evidence Of
faith of the return of more prosper
Gus times by following the action OF
Monday when orders for $4,000, 900
worth of electrical equipment for the
New York tunnels were given out by
distributing orders for II alI-steei
passenger coaches, involving an adj
ditional outlay of over S~1,250,O00.
Thirty-one of these cars will be built
by the Pressed Steel Car Co.. 20 by
the American Car and Foundry Co.
and II by the Standard Steel Car Co.
All OF these cars are to contain the
latest improvements. Aside from the
mahogany window sash and seat
frames, there is to be no wood what
ever in the cars. A feature of CON
s~truction to lessen the dangers OF
collision will be the central box Orders
extending throughout the length OF
each car, and to further insure them
against collapsing their frames will
be designed upon the principle OF the
cantilever bridge. with the trucks as
piers. The order for these n cars Is
in addition to orders for 200 previous

SENATOR SCOTT
TALKS ON PROSPERITY
Talks Of Recent Election and Tells
OF Growth Of West

Virginia.

Washington, NOV. 6.-"I am natur-
ally gratiied at the outcome in West
Virginia said Senator Scott at the
New Willard last night. 1T is what
/ expected, and yet the handsome ma
iority given Mr.. Glasscock is reassur-
ing. Our democratic friends must
have learned by this time that West
Virginia is no longer to be reckoned
among the doubtful states. 1t is no
more doubtful, in fact, population
considered, than Pennsylvania. i cali
ed up the state headquarters at IL
O'Clock, and they told me Mr.. Glass
cocks majority would be at least H.
900, and that possibly It might be 15,-
900.
I'm the meantime continued Sen
ator Scott, why don't the newspapers
make more of an effort to convince
my brethren of the South-of the so
called solid South-that it is to their
interest to study what West Virginia
has done. Afew years ago West Vir-
ginia was placed just as are many OF
the other states of the south, with
vast that could not be de
veloped for want of capital. We de-
cided that we would go out and try
to enlist this capital in our state
that we would make laws to encour-
age investments and insure the pro-
lection OF these industries after they
had been started The result has
been a great inprovemnt in the
wealth of the state and the prosperity
OF it's citizen.
"Now, there is vast u~ndeyeloped
wealth in, all the southern states
which only needs development to
make these states among the most
fi%ourishing in the nation. 1t they
only would not be quite so ~hidebouno
in their traditions, and would enact
fair and just laws for the encourage
ment of outside capital, inviting these
capitalists to come in, saying to them,
We will protect o and treat you
a $ one or u.s. they you'd see the re-
suit in the Increase OF the prosperity
of their citizens.
Fl do not mean to say that these
states should necessarily turn around
and elect republicans all the time,
but il the result Of the elections was
more uncertain there would be less
disposition on the part Of outsiders to
feel that a prejudice existed against
them which would affect them COM
merciaIly if they went to that part OF
the country.
with us in West Virginia it has
been a strenuous campaign" Senator
Scott said in conclusion, land ar
pretty we'll tired. | canvassed pra
tically the whole state, Travelled in a
automobile sometimes as much as l.
miles a day, and made as many
six speeches 70 one day. But the
suit was worth while. West VidgiI

ton. Those mountaineers are mol
fellows, hospitable and courageo
and the work, with all its physi{
strain, was really enjoyable"

BOYS ENLIsrlNe FOR SUNDAY.
High School Boys Arc Circulating 4
Petition for Evangeist's Support.

High School BOYS Arc Circulating a
Petition for EvangeIist's Support.
AS part of the work of organization
preparatory for the coming of W. A
Sunday to Marshalltown, a petition is
being circulated among high school
students pledging moral support tt
the BILLY" Sunday movement.
Regarding the attitude of high school
students pledging moral support to
state boys work secretary of the z.
M. C. A., writes to Dr. Wanberg as
follows:
Dear Sir: was in Ottumwa lately
where Rev. w. A. Sunday is just now
the chief event, and 1 must confess
that ], went there with some prejudice
against Mr.. Sunday, having heard and
read much about him, but not having
heard him, or met him. And I will
throw up my hands; he made me
change my mind.
II know he does not use the con-
ventional language of the ministry
any more than John the Baptist wore
the conventional clothes in his day.
but people come farther than from
Jerusalem to the fords of the Jordan
to hear Billy Sunday, and the same
Christ who was proclaimed there is
being pointed out to men at Ottumwa
in these days. Men are asking the
same questions. What shall we do?'
and the same old answer is being CIV
en- them: Repent; bring forth fruit
worthy of repentance
Il was surprised a hit at the way In
which Mr.. Sunday keeps himself SO
much in the background, and puts for
ward the more permanent LEADERS, the
local pastors. And I satisfied myself On
the point about which there was a
question in my mind when I went to
Ottumwa have learned that the keen
est critics and the most reliable judges
of character are the boys. They see
underneath and around shams of every
kind, and I will put my faith in any
man on whom the boyhood of a city
sets the stamp of approval.
'Mr. Sunday has captured the boys
and especially the high school boys
Perhaps their sense of justice helped
make them unanimous in his favor, on

account of what they considered the
unfair treatment Of the school board In
refusing to allow an address before
the school by Rev. Mr. Sunday.
But their attachment is deeper than
that. Each of the four high school
classes pledged S. toward the expense
of the meetings, as did also the foot
ball team, and the second team, and
when the thank offering Is made for
the evangelist I know several boys
who plan to make a real sacrifice to
give something. The Christian boys
are at work, quietly, bringing others
into the light; they are beginning to
see Christianity as something for men.
and of course they want 1t. ! hope you
may get Billy Sunday to Marshall
town. Sincerely,
