70 HARD and FAST RULE
Rev. Mr.. Walters Gave Practical Talk
on Right Living to Young Men
of Mars Club.

At the regular Mars club meeting
at the Methodist church yesterday,
Rev. Mr.. Walters, the popular speaker
Of h club, talked on the teachings of
Jesus in regard to the great problem
of pleasure Ind amusement in our So
cial life, an apropos subject for a class
Of young college and business men.
There is nothing in the new testa-
ment," said Rev. Mr.. Walters, lin re-
gard to the sinfulness of dancing
card playing and such amusements.
There is no hard and fast rule for a
young man to go by. However, Jesus
himself said Live as / live a minister
unto mankind.
Per Sc many amusements are not
harmful, but some people overestimate
their importance, resulting in waste
Of time and energy, which might be
well spent in more profitable things.
The question of dancing is per-
picking to many people who see moth
ing wrong in the amusement itself,
but it is not altogether the dance that
must be considered, 1t is the things
connected with it,
Rev. Mr.. Walters concluded by say
ing Young men, take Jesus into your
hearts. Settle your own problems of
amusements, and visit no places where
you would not be proud to take your
mother or % sister"
Next Sunday at the IL o'clock meet
ing of the club Rev. Mr.. Walters will
talk to the members on Jesus teach
ings in regard to wealth.

SEVERAL ECLIPSES
DURING The YEAR
TWO OF SUN AND TWO OF THE
MOON ARE SCHEDULED FOR
1s12-NuMRER or COMETS WILL
ALSO APPEAR-WlLL BE VERY
INTERESTING.

Astronomical phenomena for the in
coming year, 1912, will embrace four
ecilpses, two of the sun and two of
the moon. Those of the moon are
only partial, and that of the sun. April
IL, will have too short a duration Of
totally to permit of valuable observa-
tions.
The total eclipse of Oct. 10 will at
tract more attention, since the path of
totality passes across South America
from Quito to Rio de Janeiro. which
makes practicable many eclipse exp4-
d%itions, especially from observatories
in the United States, the duration of
totally being nearly two minutes
which will permit much work of value
being done.
Partial eclipses of the moon, April
l, invisible at Fargo, the beginning
visible generally in Europe, Africa and
Asia, with the ending in South AM
erica.
A central eclipse Of the sun, April
1917, visible at Fargo as a partial
eclipse, the sun rising eclipsed; the
central eclipse will be total for about
thirty-two minutes at the middle of
its duration.
There will be a partial eclipse of
the moon, Sept. 1926, the moon set
ting at Fargo as the eclipse begins
the beginning visible in North Amer
lea, the ending visible in central and
western North America, the Pacific
ocean, Australia and central and east
ern Asia.
The total eclipse of the moon will
occur Oct. $40 and will be invisible
at Fargo.
Several periodic comets are due to
return to perihelion in 1912. WooIfs
comet, which has already been photo
graphed coming into out system, will
reach us some time in February.
Barnard's comet, 1892 ", is due at.
perihelion in the middle of the sum
mer, but, as it has not yet been
seen, it is not likely to be discovered
this year.
Bela's "lost comet so famous in
astronomical history, is due the conn
ing year, provided its orbit has re-
NAMED unchanged, and there is, it is
thought, a possibility that the earth
may encounter some of the particles
or fragments of this lost comet when
the earth crosses its path next au-
tumn.
Holmes comet is due at perihelion
on its third return early in 1918, but
is more likely to be observed the COM
ing summer.
Besides periodic comets several
new comets discovered in 1911 viii re-
main visible throughout a part OF the
year, notably Brooks Quemisset's
and Schaumona's.
OCCUPATIONS of stars by the moor
are frequent phenomena, vet interest
ing and valuable as observed through
a telescope, especially valuable astro-
nomically IL the times are accurately
noted. Ninety-six OF these OCCUPATIONS
will be visible to the astronomers OF
the country during the year 1912.

that railroad, in which it was charged
with having violated interstate laws,
which prohibits the working of crews

H. Roy Waugh at the instance of At
torney General Wickersham, the pa
pers being made out in Washington

The dismissal OF the case was with
out prejudice. The charges against
the railroad We're that it had worked
two crews, numbering seven men
over the allotted time and the fines
that would have been imposed in case
Of a verdict of guilty would have
amounted to $500, The suit will now

BULL DOG AGAIN
TO Sc REGISTERED
Mcdonnell County Republicans Ready

istration Books

Parkersburg, w Va, Sept. 10-Bob
Buskirks bull dog win be registered
again as a voter if the plans of the re
publicans in Mcdowell county are
carried out in Mingo county. So far
as has been learned at the Democra-
tic State headquarters in Parkersburg
the bull dog has not yet been regis
tered but a policy, which if carried
out would result in his registration
has been started in Mcdowell county.
Under the State Law in regard 10
the registration of voters, the regis
trars are required to transfer to the
registration list the names Of all vo
tiers upon the list at the previous cleo
ton who are qualified voters. When
the new registration is made word has
come from Mcdowell county that the
republican registrars in that county
are insisting upon transferring to the
new registration list the names of all
persons who were on the registration
list before the last election, whether
the are qualified voters at the present
time CT not. Efforts of the Democra-
tic registrars TO prevent this from be-
ing done have been made in vain
This means that if this plan is carried
out every one CT the Illegal votes
which were polled in the famous cleo
ton of two years ago, which was so
utterly denounced by republicans and
democrats alike in the House of Re-
representatives. will he repeated this
year unless some means are taken to
prevent the padding of the registra-
ton list in this way.

in front of her home, The train gave
a sudden start while she was thus en-
gagged with the result described; but
this time she lost her life by again
on the railroad.
