THE TALEBEARER.

If there is one particular brand OF
nuisance that should be kicked of
the face of the earth it is that person
who under the guise of friendly in
terest in your welfare, makes it his
business to bring to you every I'M
pleasant thing he ever hears about
you, and tells it to you with the
name of the person who said it and
all its nastiness, littleness, spite or
worse it's truth.
There are so many pettinesses
mixed up with the great sweetnesses
of this good old world of ours that
the man who champions them or
helps them to spread should be con-
demned to eaveSdrop and hear him.

HELD FOR MURDER.
WOOD COUNTY FARMER MUST ANSWER
Staying OF HIS WIFE.

Parkersburg, W. Va, June 49,
At the conclusion last evening of a
preliminary hearing lasting two days,
during which fifty witnesses were ex-
amined, John Finn was held to await
the action of the grand jury on the
charge of numbering his wife. Finn
denied committing the murder,
claiming that his wife killed herself,
and attempted to prove an abb.
Justice of the Peace Rathbone in
holding Finn on the first degree
murder charge, stated that in his
opinion the defendant was response
bic for his wife's death, whether he
murdered her or not, because of his
brutal actions toward her.

The GOOD WIFE MAKES THE HOME.

Apropos of the above it may be
said that the good wife makes the
home. A good wife to a man is
wisdom, strength, and courage; a
bad one is confusion, weakness and
despair. No condition is hopeless
to man where the wife possesses
frmness, decision and economy.
There is no outward propriety
which can courtenact Incidence,
extravaganza and folly at home.
No spirit can endure bad influence
long. Man is strong, but his heart
is not adamant. He needs tran
quill mind, and if he is an intelligent
man, especially, with whole head,
he needs moral force in the conflict
with life. Torecover his composure,
home must be place of peace and
comfort. There his heart renews its
strength and opens forth, with re-
newed vigor, to encounter the labor
and troubles of life; but if at home
he finds only darkness and gloom,
is assailed with complaints and CEN
sure, hope vaniShes and he sinks into
despair and ruin. How beautiful is
that thought above that home is the
fathers kingdom the mother world,
the children's paradise, the jewel
casket containing the most precious
of all jewels, domestic happiness;
the world of strife shut in; the bios
som of which heaven is the fruit

A LUCKY STRIKE.
JOE SHERRY, A CIRCUS CLOWN BE-
COMES RICH IN WEST VIRGINIA.

A few years ago, Joe Sherry, a
clown with wagon circus that was
touring the mountain towns ofwest
Virginia, took his scant savings and
bought land in Preston county where
he intended to settle with his family
when the time came that he could
no longer stand the hardships ofcir-
Gus life. Now Sperry is a rich man,
and can quit the sawdust ring and
live in ease and luxury the balance
of his days. You see, there are a
million tons of coal underneath the
surface of Sherry's lands, and there
are a host of capitalists bidding for
it. The late Johnson n. Camden
once advised young men to save their
money and buy lands in West Vir-
GINA. 1t doesn't matter much
where you buy, he said, they will
make you rich" That advice is as
good now as it was then, and it will
be good for some years to come.

me of a neiShbor of mine, down in
Mississippi, who went to prayer
meeting one night. After the spirit

CURIOUS
AND RARE ARE THESE BIRD SPECIMENS
FOUND ON MEALS ISLAND.

Parkersburg, W. Va, June H.
One of the rarest finds in the animal
kingdom made in these parts for a
number of years is in the possession
of Henry MOTT, who resides a short
ways below Williamstown. While
hunting on Meals island last week,
Mr.. MOTT encountered three large
animals, which he captured and took
to his home. Two of them died, but
one of them is still living. The
owner has termed the animal a mon
key-faced owl, inasmuch as it has a
head which resembles greatly that of
a monkey, while the body is feath-
cred out and the shape of an owl,
This freak of nature weighs forty
pounds and has wings three feet in
length. About its face the animal
has hair and low down on its neck
are brown feathers. It's eyes are
large and the face is wrinkled like
that of monkey.
Several Mariettans say it is one of
the most peculiar looking wild crea-
lures they have ever seen. The own
er is taking good care of the freak
and expects to sell it to a menagerie.

Dan Cunningham, of the southern
West Virginia district, has laid aside

COMMISSION PLAN DISCUSSED
pes Moines Man Tells Of Its Success

Columbus. o., Nov l2.--John Mac.
Vicar of Des Moines. Ia, secretary Of
the American League of Munlcipali-
ties, contributed a paper before the
state board Of commerce on the sue
cess q the commission plan ofmunici-
pal government. In contrast to his
exposition were addresses by Mayor
II. II. Wayt and Business Manager
e. +. Ashburner Of Staunton, Va. on
the so-called Staunton plan of gov
ernment, which Is quite similar to
the federal form which is to prevail
In Ohio after Jan. 1, 1910.
The first year of the systems oper-
alton in Des Moines resulted in a
saving of S1sO,OOO in operating ex.
penses. Mr. MacVicar said that while
the plan did not eliminate politics, It
did much to curb the domination OF
ward and municipal machines.
The state board devoted consider.
able time to discussion of the canals,
In which II. X. Probasco of Cincin.
