BITTER FIGHT LIKELY
That Colonel Teter, Of Philippi, Pre-
Predicts in the Coming Scott
Hubbard Contest.

Charleston, w. Va, Jan. IL
Charles F. Teter, of Philippi, who
made hard fight for the republi-
can nomination for governor few
years ago and came within an ace OF
being governor, was prominent Wis
itor here. His destination being Bal
timore: but, OF course, he is not likely
to pass up Washington these inter
esting political days.
Col Teter declined to be inter-
viewed politically, although he man
ifested an eager interest in what he
termed the Scott-Hubbard contest
and made inquiries as to the situa-
ton in Harrison county in this par
ticular All Col Teter would say
was that he looked for a bitter fight
between Scott and Hubbard, taking
it as foregone conclusion that Mr..
Hubbard is really candidate for
the United States senatorship.
Concerning himself he preferred
not to talk, but it is evident he will
be in the thickest of the fight, when
the times comes, but he did not say

CHANGES HANDS
Former 6altimorean Secures Paper
Will Assume Directorship-others
Interested in the Deal.

Baltimore, January 17-Ownership
of majority interest in the Balti-
more Sun, hitherto entirely the prop
erty of the A. S. Abel estate, is now
held by Charles II. Grasty, managing
owner of The News prior to its pur-
chase two years ago by Frank A. Nun
sey.
Final arrangements for the transfer
of the majority interest in the Sun
to Mr. Grasty were made late Satur-
day afternoon, according to an author
itative statement made yesterday and
it IS expected that Mr. Grasty will as
sumo the management of the property
within the next few days, or just as
soon as the necessary papers can be
signed.
Mr.. Grasty refused to discuss his
plans in connection with the Sun. and
at the Sun Building representatives
of the Abells prcfessed themselves un-
able to say anything about the future
of the paper. An official announce
ment in connection with the change
in ownership is expected until Mr..
Grasty assumes charge.
In view of the fact that Mr.. Grasty
was also the successful bidder for
the World, which was recently sold
at auction, there is much speculation
as to what he intends to do with the
two papers; but on this point also he
is silent One rumor is to the effect
that he will issue the World as an af-
ternoon edition of the Sun, but anoth-
er is to the effect that he will dispose
of the World and ccnfine his atten-
ton for the time being at least, who'll
ly to his morning paper proposition,
with the possibility that some time in
the future he may issue an afternoon
edition of the Sun.
Mr.. Grasty, in line with his general
policy Of saying nothing in connection
with his plans, refuses to disclose the
identity of his bankers in the Sun deal
but rumors to the effect that he is be-
ing backed either by the Standard Oil
Company or the owners of the New
York Times are denied in well-inform-
ed quarters. 1t is reported that Julian
Leroy White. who was formerly in
terested with Mr.. Grasty in The News,
and Henry White, the former Ameri-
can Ambassador to France, are also
interested with him in the Sun deal.

CROSS TIES.

Virginia Now.

Virginia Now.
Because of the vast amount of rail
road building that is going on
throughout the country, the demand
fer railroad ties is far beyond the
supply and every source is being tax
ed to meet that demand, says the
Huntington Dispatch. The railroads
are paying from As to 80 cents, accord
ing to location, for ties of good grade
and the demand is so great that not
cne-half of the ties required for the
vast amount of construction now un-
der Roadway can be secured.
One firm from Parkersburg, with 20,
600 ties sawed, stacked at the rail-
road in Amelia county, Va, disposed
of the lot to the Louisville and Nash
vile company this week at As and 20
cents and was given an order fer as
many more as could be gotten out in
that section at the same price. Higher
prices are paid in the East, but by
selling at the point of loading more
money is made by the shipper.

enough to give pleasing tartness: IL it

off, carefully remove every bit from

before. Or you may need more; IL so,
take fresh piece and melt as before.
The once-dipped balls will be hard
enough to handle If your candy was
firm before you melted 1t. II you find
1t was rather soft and you had one
part harder, by using part of each
you get a medium degree.
Dip each ball over again; now you
see they are pure white, shine, and II
you have dropped them neatly, have
the queer little twist, or curl, where
the fork leaves them, seen on French
candies of the finest kind. You may,
IL desirable, color the outside orange
color. Add drop or two TO the cream
before you dip the balls.
Raspberry Creams.

berry jam, enough confectioner's SUI

enough to taste like the fruit, add a
speck of tartaric acid. Make into balls,

have in a cup in boiling water, stir
