Hadley was the most discussed
around headquarters
lust before the convention open
ed for the second day. On every
hand II was agreed that this de-
yelopment was certain to follow
approval OF the national commit
tees action. II was also express
ed as another certainty that
Roosevelt could not take from the
convention some OF his pledged del
egates.
Before the convention went into
session there were conferences
among Roosevelt members. con-
sidering the question whether to
permit the Hadley resolution to he
sent TO the credentials committee
or whether to make this the point
OF departure. 1t was the opinion
OF many that II would be better to
let the resolutions 60 to the COM
mittee and keep up the fight.
Some wanted to stand or fall by
the Hadley motion to substitute
the Roosevelt delegates for the
Taft men seated by the national
committee while others wanted
that fight TO mark the beginning
of hostiliities.
They conferred in whispers and
II was plain from their attitude
that the difference of opinion was

The first attempt by the Bulgar-
ian Army, reinforced with troops
relieved by the Servians at Adrla-
nople, to break through the Tcha
Italia lines, not far from CONSTANT
nople, has failed, and the Turks
hope, by holding out, to obtain
more favorable peace terms than
could be secured with CONSTANT
nople in the hands of the allies.
The Servians have forced the
surrender of Monastlr, with $4,000
Turkish soldiers and three generals.
The attacking army had captured
the heights commanding the city
and out off the retreat, making the
position of the defenders untenable:
A fresh appeal for cessation OF
hostilities has been made by the

Aliens get Respite.

Richmond, Va Vow. l9.--Gov-
enor Mann of Virginia today rcSpi-
ted until December Is, Floyd Allen
and his son. Claude Swanson Allen
both condemned to die on Friday
for their completely in the murders
at Judge Massie's court room in
Hillsville, Va. The stay was unex-
pected.
Governor Mann issued state
ment explaining that he issued the
stay at the request of Judge Staples
who presided at the ira of the
mountaineers. Judge Staples and
counsel for Claud Allen, the
son, desired to appeal to the Unite
States Supreme Court, and would
not have time to perfect his writ If
the execution was not stayed.
The Rev George w Daniel, one
of the Aliens spiritual advisers, had
a long conference with the governor
today, earnestly pleading for elem
ency.
Although no request was made OF
the governor for time in which to
appeal Floyd Aliens case to- the
Supream Court, the executive
thought it would be only an act OF
compassion to give the father q
stay of execution at the same time
that he held u p the electrocution
of the son.

OBITUARY.

The gentle spirit of Mrs Margaret
Anne Hildebrand entered into rest
on the morning CT the 18th day of
November 1912, having been in I'M
usually poor health for some months
5ut only confined to her bed for a
week before her death.
Mrs Hildebranh was a daug liter
of Jacob and Melinda Newman,
we'll XII. Wa in Crabb ,ttom in for
mar wears. She was born March
20, 1885, she married Rev Thomas
Hildebrand in the early seventies.
For at least 35 years Mrs Hide
brand was a resident of Mcdowell,
having come here with her husband
who served the Methodist church
here for three years. Mr. Hildebrands
health gave way and he bought q
home, living here until he died.
After his death Mrs Hildebrand
made her home with her daughter
Lillian and son Marvin.
Mrs Hildebrand was most con-
secrated Christian, always interest
ed in any church work and devoted
to her own church being connected
with it from early child hood. She
taught the Bible class for years un-
til failing health caused her to give
up active work. She was always
very frail of body but full of energy
and zeal for the Masters service.
She always had good word for the
absent one and wise counsel for
those in her presence. Physically
unable to visit among her neighbors
for several years a warm welcome
always greeted them in her home
and it was an inspiration to come in
contact with such a lovely charac-
ter. Though she has passed from
this earth she left fragrant memo
ry whose influence will remain in
this community for good in time to
come. Some one remarked "she
didn't see Mrs Hildebrand often,
but it was like a benediction to pass
the home of such a sanity charac-
ter"
She left one son and one daugh-
ter who miss her loving voice and
six etep sons, Robert, Blake, Gil
ham, Simpson, William and Philip
Hildebrand who love her as a
mother. But her death is only one
more link to draw us closer to
Heaven, reminding us that sooner
or later the summons will come to
each of US and we must give an ac-
count to our Heavenly Father of
how we have made use of our tai
ents in this world.

Owes Life to He Horse.

Frank Tracy, of Wallingford, Conn.
claims that his life was saved by mis-
horse Starlight. He went to OAK
dale tavern, three miles away with
load Of baggage and was 30 badly
chilled on the return that he fell In
an unconscious condition Into MS
wagon. His horse, turning corners
with unerring accuracy, brought
Tracy to his place of business, where
aid was promptly afforded. After
working over him for two hours the
doctors pronounced him out of dam
ger Tracy says the horse will never
have to haul another load. The horse
had the home instinct so many AMI
mails have, and this led to the relief
Of his master.-The Christian Herald.

Humor In Music.

AS to the possibility Of humor IN
music. the London Telegraph says: IF
composers and performers had more
of the sense of humor. music's ap-
neal would be immensely wider. The
truth is that musical performers are
far too apt to take themselves too
seriously" The solemn attitude of
some musicians toward their art was
humorously rebuked recently by a
we'll known New York pianist, who
remarked to his gifted wife, also a
pianist, at the conclusion Of per-
Torrance by the latter: my dear,
don't look so doleful! Music isn't a
funeral; music Is joke"

Women Pearl Divers,

Many pearl divers in Japan are
women. Along the coasts of the bays
OF Ago and Kokasho the. small school
girls are taught to dive for pearls.
Most Of them are swimmers from
early childhood, but instruction I'M
the art of pearl diving Is necessary
nevertheless. The women divers
wear special dress when engaged
In their work, and twist their hair In
to hard knot. Glasses are worn to
protect their eyes. When the women
Jump into the water they have around
their waists small tubs, into which
they drop the oysters they gather OF
the bottom of the sea. When the tubs
are filled men stationed in rowboats
hoist them to the surface. The wom-
en- can dive to depth Of from five to
thirty fathoms and can hold their
breath for three minutes at a time.
Those women between twenty-five and
thirty-fve years old are considered to
be in their prime as pearl divers.

Monterey.

:: Clifton Forge held a big meeting
Thursday night, which enthusiastic
allv endorsed movement looking
to the building of a rail road from
Clifton Forge through the rich min
eral lands between Clifton Forge
and Monterey in Highland county
The road would pass through a body
of lands amounting to about one
hundred thousand acres belonging
to the Hon. Peter McLaren of Can
ada, who seems to be back of the
movement to build the road.
The mayor presided at the meet,
ing and addresses we're made by a
number of citizens, all of whom
heartily endorsed the project
Staunton Leader.
The little city of Clifton Forge,
in agitating and booming this i'm
portant feeder shows excellant fore
sight and business sagacity. The
section to be traversed is a rich.
virgin field, inviting development
and, very recently, and repeatedly
the Recorder has maintained that
such development is sure to come
and at no distant day. AS an out,
let, it means much to Highland; as
feeder, it stands for as much OF
more to the nearby city that sue,
ceeds in pulling it that way.

Public PAPER Adulterated.

The committee on printing discov-
ers that the paper used in govern
ment work has been 80 adulterated
that the durability Of public records
is seriously imperiled. The adultera'
ton consists in substituting clay for
the more substantial wood or rag
fiber. Hence the paper is likely to
crumble in less than a century. Ev-
cry year the government spends for
paper s1,OO0O,00O. The public printer
has advertised for bids on $4,000
pounds of paper, but the use Of clay
and mineral filters for the future will
be closely watched and restricted.
