laundryman, when asked about. the

The seevral machines he has installed
certainly are doing perfect work, and
they are Of the very latest, the 1911 S
model. In several respects the new

found more modern. Moreover some

FIRST PERIOD OF CAMPAIGN
TOE DANCING
Is Not a Modern Invention But
Was Indulged in 1000
Years Ago.

LONDON, July 25.-Toe dancing is
not comparatively modern French
invention, as is popularly supposed,
since piece of Egyptian pottery over
1000 years old, now exhibited by the
Institute Of Archaeology, shows girl
taking such steps In modern ballet
style.
che antiquity of toe dancing is only
one Of the things revealed by the
Egyptian collection brought from
Meroe in the Sudan by Prof. John
Garstang. Stones of astronomical
buildings there show considerable
knowledge of the heavens. On one
stone was sketched an instrument
for measuring angles and taking ele-
vations, while another drawing tends
to show that an effort was made to
measure the circumference Of the
moon. Certain marks measuring the
shadows Of the sun indicate an effort
to get the latitude and longitude of
Meroe.
An entirely new language, which
is at present a mystery, was also dis
covered by archeologists here, in GER
tain inscriptions.

PARIS. July 25-A challenge to
2 duel was sent today by Judge AL
banel. presiding judge of the court
trying Nine. Caillaux for the murder
of CASTOR Calmette, to Judge De
goury. one of the three other judges
sitting on the bench with him.
The quarrel between the two
judges arose out of an incident which
occurred at the Palace Of Justice late
last night but the nature of which
could not be ascertained.
The seconds appointed by Judge
Albanel are General Dalstein, for.
mer military governor Of Paris. and
Emile Laborie.
When the discussion concerning
the reading of Mute. Gleydan's ~
ters seemed to be going unfavorable
for the defense during yesterdays
hearing, Judge Alhanel announced
that there would be a recess. The
Figaro affirms today that Judge Da-
goury then said in low tones, you
dishonor us, sir"
The two judges after going into
their private rooms during the recess
engaged in a heated discussion, II

admitted that he had said more than
he had meant to say and apologized

closed. This morning, however, a re.
port Of 1t was made public on the
front page of Figaro. which lerl

KILGO
And the Rev. Dr.. Darlington
Are to Preach at ST. Paui's
NJ. e. Church, South.

The pastor and members of st.
Paul's Methodist Episcopal church,
South, are to be congratulated ON
having in their progressive little
church Sunday and Monday two
prominent clergymen Of that denom-
ination.
The Rev. U. v. w. Darlington, D.
D.. of Huntington. will be the
speaker Sunday morning at II
o'clock. DIR. Darlington was a dele
gate to the late general conference
which met at Oklahoma City. and
was recognized as one Of the strong
men Of that great body. He served
in the same capacity in 1910 and re-
ceiyed number of votes for bishop.
He has been pastor of the best
churches of his denomination in the
state, having been four years pastor
of st. Paul's Methodist Episcopal
church, South. at Parkersburg, and
four years at Johnston Memorial,
Huntington. The beautiful new
church at Huntington was built as a
result Of his indefatigable energy.
1t is one Of the most beautiful and
commodious churches In the state.
At the present time DR.. Darlington is
financial agent for Morris Harvey
College located at Barboursyille,
having refused some tempting offers
to large pastorates to remain with
his West Virginia brethren where he
was SO much needed.
On Monday evening. July 81.
Bishop John c. Kilgo, D. D.. OF Dur
ham, N. c., will preach. For num-
ber Of years before his election to
the episcopacy, which occurred in
1910, DR.. Kilgo was a leading edu-
Gator in the South. He was for a
number Of years president of Trinity
College. where he did work which
will tell in the years to come. Since
his election to the episcopacy Bishop
Kilgo has become one of the most
popular bishops in the cabinet. AS
a preacher he has but few equals.
He is great believer in experiment
tai religion and breaches the old
time Bible doctrines with the old
time Methodist fire, and his preach
ing always finds responsive chord
in the hungry hearts of the present
day congregation. Bishop Kilgo has
held several reviyals recently. and
while in Atlanta engaged in evangel-
istic work preached on the street cor
ners.
Bishop Kilgo will hold the sixty
first session Of the Western Virginia
conference which will convene at st.
Albans, September 8, and will spend
considerable time looking over his
episcopal district before that time.
The public Is cordially invited to
these services.
