Not For Willie.

A country woman and her little
boy were visiting the city. and while
seeing sights of the place, the mo-
theirs eye was attracted by the
snowy display of stuffed animals in
a taxidermists' shop window.
Lets go In here and see what we
can get for you. Willie" said the
mother.
"Sure, ma, and" His eye fell
upon sign, over the shop door,
which read: LET US tan your hides"
ooh, no, no ma let's don't go in
there; get 'nuff of that at home"
he cried excitedly. and they passed
by the taxidermist's shop.

The West Virginia Legislature.

After week OF frllitless efforts to in
duce the Republican members OF the State
Senate to meet in constitutional session,
the Democrats organized the Senate Oh
Tuesday. 1t will be recalled that fifteen
Democrats and fifteen Republicans con-
stituted the new Senate. The Democrats
promptly presented themselves in the
Senate chamber Wednesday OF last week
at the time appointed for the assembling
OF the Legislature, but the Republicans
refused to meet with them unless the
Democrats would promise to elect a Re-
publican presiding officer. This the
Democrats very naturally refused to do.
Since that time the Republicans rad bar
ricaded themselves in the Governors Of
flee in the capitol building, while the
Democrats regularly presented them
selves in the Senate chamber for formal
organization. The Democrats having or
ganized temporarily, passed resolution
authorizing the proper officers to bring
the recalcitrant members into the Senate
chamber. Before this could be done, the
fifteen Republicans abSconded TO Cincin-
natl, taking train for that city at 3 O'Clock
Tuesday morning. They were afraid OF
arrest or defections in their own ranks,
and were also DESTROYS OF blocking the
election of United States Senators.
Tuesday the Democrats, having ex-
hausted every other means, seated Mr..
Caldwell, Democrat, of Wheeling, who
had contested the seat OF Mr.. Hearne,
Republican. and establisheda prima facie
right to a seat in the Senate Having thus
obtained a majority and quorum, the
Democrats proceeded to organize the
Senate by electing Senator r. F. Kidd
president, John T. Harris clerk, with a
corps OF necessary officials. The Senate
then proceeded regularly with business,
although it is said that Governor Glass
cock will refuse to recognize the legality
of the proceedings.

james McKelvey, farmer of Wash
ington Crossing, New Jersey, is trium-
plant because he trapped four thieves
on his farm, and he believes the neigh
borhood is free of these pests. The
prisoners were all negroes, and were
given a bad fright before being turned
over to the village constable. Workmen
completed new VINE coops on McKelvey's
farm, these being separated from each
other by distance of200 yards. In front
OF each he arranged trap, by which a
person who entered could not leave after
It had been "set." They resemble bear
traps. McKelvey set each trap before
he retired, and could scarcely sleep, so
impatient was he to see the result of the
new arrangement that cost him about
$500 When he arose he found culpritS
in four of the coops fighting to get out.
He summoned neighbors for miles around
and exhibited his prisoners in their cage.
He then bought one out and mock trial
was held. He was found guilty and sem
fenced to be burned. The negro imagin-
ed it was a case of Judge Lynch, and
howled in agony, while the others in the,
coops, who could view the proceedings,
prayed. Each was tried in turn and sem
fenced TO death by burning. To make
the situation more realistic, fire was
started and the prisoners were told to
prepare forthe end. Two OF them show
ed fight, but were subdued.

WHY HESITATE ?
An Offer That Involves No Risk For
Those Who Accept 1t.

We are so positive our remedy will
completely relieve constipation, no mat
ter how chronic it may be, that we offer
to furnish it free of all cost il it fails.
Constipation is caused by weakness Of
the nerves and muscles of the large in
tcstines or descending colon. To expect
a cure you must therefore tone up and
strengthen those organs and restore them
to healthier activity.
We want you to try Rexall Orderlies
on our guarantee. They are eaten like
candy, and are particularly ideal for chill
dren. They act directly on the nerves
and muscles of the bowels. They have a
neutral action on the other organs or
glands. They do not purge or cause any
Inconvenience whatever. They will posi-
lively overcome chrome or habitual con-
stipation and the myriads of associate or
dependent chronic ailments. Try Rexall
Orderlies at our risk. Two sizes, 10c.
and 25c. Sold only at our store-The
Rexall Store. Owens & Miller, Shep-
herdstowr, w. Va.

OUR good friend State Game Warden
J. A. Viquesney, in stating his purpose
to try to have the Legislature still further
add to the laws for game and fish protec-
ton, expresses the belief that in few
years West Virginia will be a paradise
for hunters and fishermen. We wish we
could have faith in this optimistic opin-
ion-but we cannot. II is the observa-
ton OF most persons that the more laws
we have, the scarcer become the game
and fish. The only result that we can
see from the present restrictions is that
real sportsmen are annoyed and harassed,
while the pot-hunterS get all the game.
There is practically no prosecution OF vi
olations OF the game laws, and until this
can De arranged for we see no necessity
for more law.
We think, however, that the Legisla-
tor would do well to cut out about half
the laws that now adorn our statute
books.

Chiffon and Watson for the Senate.


AT the Democratic caucus held in
Charleston last night VIM. E. Chiffon,
of Charleston, was nominated for the
long term in the United States Senate to
succeed Senator n. B. Scott, and Ciaf-
ence w. Watson, OF Fairmont, was cho-
sen for the short term made vacant by
the death of Senator Stephen B.. Elkins.
The balIoting for the short term came
first, and eleven ballots were required be-
fore the prize was won. Senator A. {.
-McIntire nominated Mr. Watson, whose
most formidable opponent was Judge
John H. Holt, of Huntington; others
nominated for the short term were L. N.
Tavenner, OF Parkersburg and Andrew
Edmiston, Of Weston.
Ex-Governor William A. Mac Corkle
nominated VIM. E. Chiffon for the long
term, and Senator Sam V. Woods placed
the name of Hon. John T. McGraw be-
fore the caucus. c. NJ. Wetzel, of Jef-
ferson county, seconded the nomination
OF Mr.. McGraw. On the fifth ballot
Chiffon received the 40 votes necessary
to nominate him.
VIM. E. Chiffon who gets the long
term in the Senate, has been actively
identified with West Virginia politics for
many years, being a very shrewd and dar-
ing leader. He was law partner OF the
late Senator John E. Kenna, and was
Secretary of State under Governor VIM
A. MacCorkle. He is now engaged in
the practice of law with the latter. He is
attorney for the railroad and other in
terests, owns coal and oil lands, and is
wealthy. He is very genial and COM
panionable man and has wide circle OF
friends throughout the State. He has
lived in Charleston all his life and has al
ways been loyal Democrat.
Clarence w. Watson, who will fill the
unexpired term Oft late Senator ElklnS,
is 46 years old and is native OF Fairmont.
He is president of the Consolidated Coal
Company, and with his brothers controls
the vast coal output OF the Fairmont re-
gion. He is known as the owner OF fine
horses, and has been prominent in the
horse shows held in New York and other
cities, usually winning many prizes with
his splendid Hackneys. He has never
taken much interest in politics, although
he was delegate to the Democratic ma
tional convention in 1908. HE'S expect
ed now to assume the position OF party
leader in West Virginia, and will un-
doubleday be candidate for reelection
two wears hence. He is married, but has
no children. He is enormously wealthy,
his coal property being worth many mil
lions.

George Parvel, a Roumanian, died
Tuesday near Wheeling, w. Va, after
drinking quart and a half of whiskey.
Parvel had made bet that he could drink
that amount of the intoxicant without any
serious effects. He lived only four hours.
Parvel and some other men were discuss
