Washington, Jan. 5.-Senator
Stephen B. Elkins of West Virginia
died at midnight last night. At his
bedside were his wife, his daughter,
Katherine, and four sons, David
Richard, stephen and Blaine, and
the physicians. Death was due to
blood poisoning. He was conscious
until half an hour before his death.
In the early evening there were
persistent rumors in Washington
that the senator's condition had be-
come grave, and fears were express,
ed that he might not live through
the night. The Elkins family how
ever, was hopeful to the last, and to
the numerous inquiries which pour
ed into the Elkins home encouras-
ing responses were given

Read the Beatitndeu.

II every man and woman OF fail
understanding and open mind should
read every Sunday morning the fifth
chapter of Matthew, which is the
sermon on the mount, containing
the beatitudes, this world would be
happier than it is, says the Ohio
State Journal. One need not stop to
discuss the doctrine of 1t, but Just
let the sweet spirit of it get into his
life, as he let's the view OF a fine
landscape, or glorious sunset, or
the heavens filled with stars, get
into his soul, and it will put him In
harmony with the all-pervadlng
truth that ruleth all things, and will
spread a vision before him that he
never saw before.
There is the best truth in the uni
verse; better than one will find in
the sciences, the arts, the philoso-
piles, the histories and a truth
that one does not have to struggle
to get, but which comes to him as
freely as the light goes into his eyes.
All he has to do is to open his eyes,
and there it is. If that fair Gospel
would get into the hearts of men,
this world would be transformed in
its culture, its religion, its politics,
its social service, and the nine bless
ings therein named would shed a
radiance over all human ex-
perience.

Controlling Hydropbobio.

Hydrophobia occurs almost en-
clusively in the domestic dog, but
also to small extent and in a few
localities in wild animals of the dog
family and in skunks. Human in
lection occurs directly from the
rabid dog through bites. Rabies is
an infectious disease, transmitted
by bites of infected animals. 1t
never originates spontaneously or
as result of starvation, bad food
or water, excitement, fear, or other
like causes. Statistics from the most
diverse parts of the world show
that rabies is not confined to, and
not even markedly prevalent dur
Ing, any particular season OF the
year. 1t may flourish at any season.
Under the present conditions of COM
municatioa in the United States,
physical barriers are insufficient "a

and their saliva may be virulent for

SALEM LADS
Taken into Custody at Park
ersburg for Beating
Way on Train.

Tuesday evenings Parkersburg
Sentinel gave the following account
of the recent experience of two Sa-
lem youths there:
When Lewis Mays and a compan-
ion, residents of Salem, both nice
looking young fellows, decided on
Sunday to jump aboard of passenger
train and come here for a few
hours stay and jump another train
and go home, missed their calcula-
tions. They were not aware that there
we're officers at this end of the line
on the watch for their kind, and
when the train arrived here they fell
right into the arms of one of the
officers as they were jumping off the
blind baggage.
When taken before Squire Rath-
bone yesterday afternoon they were
all broken up over the arrest.
Likewise they were hungry. Mays
said he had small deposit at the
bank at Salem, about eighteen dol
lars, and this was corroborated by
the cashier when he was called up.
A check was drawn for the payment
of the fine OF himself and friend and
enough to pay their transportation
home. The last quarter of the pro-
ceeds of the check was used for
something to eat. Both
are employed at the glass plant at
