DAYLIGHT ROBDER
 COVERS HIS TRACKS
SECURED FIFTEEN DOLLARS FROM O. X. THEATER AT 2 O'CLOCK YESTERDAY

One of the boldest robberies which has been perpetrated in some time occurred yesterday afternoon about o'clock. the 0. K. Theater being the victim to the extent of SIS. No clue has thus far been obtained.
 Yesterday was moving day for the manager of the theater and the money he usually keeps at home was in the box office.
 No count had been made. but it was about Sl5. The money was in the inside drawer of an upright desk, it being necessary to let down the front to get at the drawer. so that the thief was evidently ac- quainted with it's location.
 The proprietor of the theater open ed the desk at o'clock and knows that the money was there then. He stepped across the street for few minutes and when he returned the money was gone. An open back window with mar pried off told the story of how entrance was made. One quarter was left. prob ably as a nest egg.

PERTINENT FACTS.
lJa,. W. weir.l


In trying to allay the irritation
that exists in so many counties of.
the State where dissatisfaction exists
toward the State Republican Com
mittee which is largely responsible
for revolt against their palpable
unfairness. Governor William E.
Glasscock who has been designated
by the State Republican Committee
and who therefore becomes their
agent, is trying to cure appendicitis
with soothing syrup when nothing
but an operation in this present in
stance will suffice. The Republican
party polite is suffering with an
acute case of appendicitis with the
Republican State committee as the
rotting appendage. That part of
the Republican anatomy is diseased.
Soothing syrup will not cure the
trouble. Nothing but a knife will
and The knife should be used on the
State Republican Committee. DR..
Glasscock is wrong in his diagnosis
and it is little wonder that his tonic
failed to work in Marion. 1t is I'M
fair, according to the way many Re-
publicans view the matter, for the
Governor to go into Counties and
tell men they are in the wrong when
they are merely standing for what is
just and fair. Ring tactics employ.
ed by the State Republican Commit
tee are responsible for the differences
that exist in Marion. Wood, Fayet-
tee, Clay, Doddridge, ,Cabell, Kan
awha, Mason, Monroe and other
counties. Appeals taken to the
State Committee from some of these
counties have invariably been decid-
ed, not on the. merits, of the case
but with the object of .favoring Sem
ator Scott or some part of the ma
chine that seeks to perpesuate itself
and let the rank and file go hang.
The proper place for DR.. Glasscock
to have applied the remedy would
have been on the State Committee
yet that tribunal sits by complacent-
ly and chuckles at the methods en-
ployed and at the Governor forcing
down the screws that this committee
may continue to exist.

WHERE THE MONEY WENT.

No wonder the money for the Vir-
ginia debt suit is SO soon exhausted.
The way those fellows who are de-
Tending and have living at the ex-
pense of the State is enough to ex-
haust the resources of Guggenheim.
The expenses of the late Attorney
General May in Washington from
March 4, 1907 to March 10th were
Sl7s.5o and he went to Jamestown
in April it cost the state 800 beside
another $50 for his expenses in
Washington. On May 18th it cost
him sos to go to Berkeley Springs.
On June Goth it cost him S94 to 60
to Washington and stay there one
day. In November trip to Wash
ington and New York cost the State
S1le.so. On December leth trip
made by Mr.. May to Washington
and New York cost $500. These are
just few samples.

SUDDEN DEATH.

From time to time the shadow-of
sudden death falls with startling I'M
expectedness upon some happy home.
A member of the family, who, in
the morning, went forth, seemingly
strong and well, to discharge his dali
ly duties is at some fateful hour of
the day, brought back sadly and 81
lently to his bereaved family. Or,
it may be, the stroke falls on one of
the dear ones at home, from whom
he tenderly parted;in the morning.
Sudden death brings grievous sorrow
to the beloved survivors. 1t teaches
US the trailty and uncertainty of life.
But to those who have learnt the
lesson of life Alright and who find
themselves too quickly bereft of one
who faithfully strove to walk not aft
er the flesh, but after the spirit, the
dark cloud is not without silver
lining" The sharp pain of sorrow
is relieved by the remembrance Of
the faithful promise of Gods blessed
word and above all by the soothing
ministrations of the Comforter, whose
sustaining power is never more strong
i ~ felt than on such trying occasions.
The true manner of preparing for
the last moment" says Fenelon, is
to spend all the others well, and
ever to expect that. We dote upon
this world, as if it never were to
have an end; and we neglect the
next, as fit were never to have a
beginning
