HAS RESTING PLACE Ar LAST.
Remarkable VIcissItudes Undergone
- by Stained Glass Window. g..

The east window at st. Mar garet's,
Westminster, England, wandered
about for more than 200 years before
reaching Its present position, and was
the subject Of seven years lawsuit
HG""y VII. for whom It was intended,
died before the window arrived from
Dordrecht and 1t came into the pos.
session first Of the abbot Of Waltham
and then Of General Monk. Stained
glass was anathema in Puritan, days,
so the window was buried until the
Restoration, when 1t was brought to
light. Refus d by Wadham college It
was bought for fifty guineas and erect.
ed In a private house and years later
was bought for 400 guineas by the
committee charged with the restora-
tion OF st. Margaret's, and placed in
position III the church. The lawsuit to
which we have referred was brought
by the registrar to the dean and
chapter on the ground that the win.
dow contained superstitious images,
but after seven years wranglIng the
church wardens proved victorious and
the beautiful window was suffered to
remain undisturbed.

I just PAINTED TO SEE MONEY.
SThen italian Woman Was Satisfied II
Was All Right.

A savings bank is never a very
cheerful place. To one smiling young
matron putting aside the proverbial
nest esg," or, still more, smiling
young mothers depositing in trust for
the first baby, there are ten sad-faced
women in black, many Of them with
widows wells.
This was especially true recently
when the panic sent anxious deposit
ors by the hundreds to draw out their
small savings, and it was therefore es.
peclallS refreshing to see in thar
croWding somber line not Lola from
Berlin" but Marguerite from Italy, a
trim, bright-eyed little woman with
scarlet handkerchief around her neck
and her uncovered, glossy, black locks
puffed and braided and curled as If
for an Inauguration bali.
o. She waited patiently-even cheer
fully-as slowly foot by foot she ap
preached the paying teller's desk, but
It was two o'clock before her turn
came. She began to ok weary, but
she gave the wearir man behind the
little window a confiding smile as
she handed him her bank book and
said:
Il want it ALL"
He glanced at the book and count
ed out 1912 in one-dollar bills.
THAT mine!" gasped the little
woman.
The teller nodded.
She fingered the bills, looking more
puzzled. The woman behind her was
almost crying with impatience. The
line swayed as If it had been q row of
bricks and some one had hit the last
brick in the row. Still Marguerite
folded and unfolded the bills; she had
all the repose of her native land.
"You sure" she said at last "You
sure these all mine"
"All yours" the man answered, Ia
conically.
Ordinarily he would have told her
she was blocking the line. but this
pday he saw no objection4 to the, delay.
She ventured one more question:
You sure these mine-these dollars?
thought put in fives and tenB'
These are all yours" he assured
her emphatically.
She flashed him a glimpse Of white
teeth.
All right, them" she said, idiomat.
ically. "Tony-my mamie tell me
my money not here. He say, take 1t
dll out | say: L 90 see.'"
Then untying the corner of a RED
handkerchief and taking from It
five-dollar gold piece and several
grimy bills she added them to the pile
in front Of her and pushed the whole
toward the astonished bank official.
You put them all back" she com.
manded. II see them, 80 know they
all here"

Mr.. Samuel T. McCown, who

noon, July %, 1908, was buried at
Bethesda Presbyterian church near
Rockbridge Baths Wednesday
afternoon, Rev. Leon Il. Presley,
Of the Associate Reformed Presby.
terrain church, officiating, y
Mr.. McCown's death was unex-
pected. A short time before his
death he was sitting on the porch
laughing and talking with friends.
Feeling unwell he went to his room
and his wife gave him some medi-
cine. He lay down on his bed,
and in a few minutes some of his
friends entered his room to make
inquiries of his condition. In at
tempting to rice from the bed he
expired suddenly. Heart trouble
is supposed to have been the cause
of his death.
Mr.. McCown was born near
Rockbridge Baths about 81 years
ago, and was the son of Mr.. James
G. McCown. He was an enter
prislng business man and accumu-
lated considerable property by
farming and cattle raising. His
wife, who was q Miss Sheltman Of
Rockbridge, survives, with four
sons and one daughter.

Victims of Forest Fires

The forest fire which has been raging
in the Kootenal Valley, in British Co
lumbia, has assumed the proportions of
a great disaster. A number of towns
have been wiped out, many lives have
been lost and the value Of the property
destroyed has been estimated at many
million dollars. That there should be
a very great loss Of life in a very great
loss Of life in country Of space seems
amazing. In British Columbia the
advance of the flames appears to have
been so rapid that towns and isolated
dwellings were surrounded before the
unfortunate inhabitants were aware Of
it, and they persisted miserably in the
fires. Families have been separated 10
the mad rush for life, and it is believed
that many parties Of lumbermen have
persisted.

THE TWO PLATFORMS

1t makes good Democratic read
ing to contrast the platform adopt
ed by the Democratic Convention
at Denver with that adopted by
the Republican Convention at
Chicago. The CommOner, Mr..
Bryan's paper, published the two
platfCrmsiin recent issue of his
paper in parallel columns, and the
difference between the two docu-
ments was striking to degree.
The Denver platform represents
the many "interests." In a re-
cent issue of the Philadelphia
Record, a strong and influential
supporter of the Democratic tick
ct, the following clear and timely
contrast is made:
The contrast presented by the ele-
ments composing the Chicago and Dem
yer conventions Is not less great than
that between the platforms OF princl-
Piles enunciated by the two parties. In
the Chicago platform is the cautious
work of body Of bureaucrats repre-
sentatives of the trusts and monopo-
lies, anxious to conciliate the people
and at the same tine preserve all the
privileges they have wrested from the
people, This is conspicuously betrayed
by the evasive tariff resolution, with its
intent to maintain the existing sys-
tenn of spoilation aud to delude the ma
ton with q promise of reform. The
same spirit pervades the entire Chic
ago platform. AS a consequence the
Republican platform is already we'll
nigh dismissed from the public con-
sideration.
In coz structing the Democratic plat
form the convention at Denver has full
ly responded to the demands Of the
country. AS convention of the peo-
cle, by the people and for the people,
It could not have done else. The plat
form once more mirrors the great car
1inal principles Of the Democracy. and
thus will be acceptable to all genuine
conservative and radicals.

The Great Appointee

One of our exchanges calls at.
teDtion to the fact that Mr.. Roose
veIt's candidate, Taft, has never
throughout his career occupied an
important place OF trust to which
he was elected by the people. His
record insofar as it gives him pro-
minence, reflects selection by one
man. He is the great appointee
of American politics-appointed
as Governor of the Philippine
appointed as Secretary of the
Treasury, and finally virtually ap-
pointed by Mr.. Roosevelt as Presi.
Dental nominee Of the Republican
party.

PLANNING FOR CAMPAIGN

Norman +. Mack, chairman of
the Democratic National Commit
tee, announces that plans have
been adopted by the Democratic
leaders for an active campaign.
While the fight will be conferred in
the States of the Middle West, no
efforts will be spared to holo the
Eastern States in line.
The report that the Republicans
are laying elaine to Georgia,
chiefly on the ground that John
Temple Graves, formerly of that
State, is the nominee on the indie.
pendence League for Vice-Presi-
dent, are not seriously considered
by the Democratic leaders. 1t is
conceded now that Mr.. Hearst's
organization is an annex to the
Republican party. but the entrance
into the field of politics of that
organization will not cut much
figure.
While Mr.. Hearst has to some
extent exerted influence in New
York politics, he did so es a Dem
Ocrat, and as a member of that
party be had considerable follow
ing. Since he has cut loose from
the Democratic party and launched
his own party, his influence will
be small quantity.
