JUDGE ROBINSON
When He Goes into His Native
County to Speak for
George M. Bowers.

BELINGToN, April 29.-The two
greatest political gatherings held in
Barbour county for many years was
the occasion of the visit of Judge Ira
T.. Robinson who spoke at Philippi at
9 o'clock this afternoon and at Bel
ington ut 6 o'clock tonight. The
large court room at Philippi would
not seat the great throng of people
that gathered from every part of the
county to greet Judge Robinson, who
is native son of Barbour county and
to assure him of their loyal support
in his race for governor Of the state
of West Virginia.
County Chairman A. F. Bennett
called the meeting to order and
named DR.. Weekley, who is TO be the
new county chairman of Barbour
county, to preside over the meeting.
Judge Robinson, after paying a
touching tribute to the stalwart cit
izenship of Barbour county and re-
lating many "reminiscences of his boy
hood days spent upon the old farm
and his struggles as a young lawyer
in the town of Philippi, launched into
a discussion OF national conditions
confronting the voters of the Second
congressional district and telling why
George NJ. Bowers should be elected
to represent this district in Congress
at the special election to be held on
the ninth day of May.
No mention was made during the
whole Of his speech relative to the
gubernatorial contest but the scholar
ly discussion and the dignified de-
meanor Of Judge Robinson seemed to
convince the entire audience that he
was the only one in West Virginia
qualified to be governor, and many
pledges were given him of loyal sup
port.
The meeting at Belington was held
in the Grand theater, which was filled
to overlooking. A crowd estimated a.
two hundred was unable to get into
the building. ]. H. FELTON,, former
clerk of the circuit court OF Barbour
county, and life long friend OF
Judge Robinson, presided at this
melting and in introducing him, said:
1T is great pleasure to be hon.
ored with the privilege of introducing

Judge Robinson being accompanied
by his wife on this trip, seemed to
be in happy frame of mind and
with a wonderful command of elo.

to the ladies. After discussing ma.

GRAB HIM QUICK GIRLS
 HE WON'T TRY TO RUN

To all daughters of Eve who have leap year intentions, the vocational guide and well known bachelor Willis J. Kibby, today offers advice concern ing the habits, characteristics and dis positions of various sorts of men, which is intended to help girls win their hearts desires without suffering rebuff in the process. A good deal of what Kibby says is based upon phre- nology. A man who has thin, straight lips is branded a cold blooded, stony hearted creature upon whom the dear est girls appeal would have no effect This sort of man will do his own pro- posing, run his own wedding and rule his household; and he'll do it more with his head than his heart.
 But if the man of your choice has full, well-formed lips, Kibby says you may depend upon his capacity for and inclination to, love. He is also suscept- holS No liS IlShI Soit VI ltHllHiIle dp- proach. Kibby says the way to tell whether the one you love, loves you, is by the coloring of the under lip when he is with you. Every human emotion gives some physical demon stration when it is aroused. The evi- dence that love has been aroused is given by the deep crimsoning of the under lip. If his under lip is perpe- tually pale when he is with you, he doesn't love you. If it is crimson and you want him, grab him quick; he won't run. All these things are as ap- plicable to women as to men, in the experts opinion.

Geronimo's Son Dead

The historic burial ground near the San Xavier mission is the resting place of Michael Geronimo, the son of the famous Apache chief who was once the scourge of southern Arizona. The remains of the young man, who died at St. Mary's hospital Sunday, were taken to the mission and inter- red with simple services in the bury ing ground.
 The father of the young man, dur ing his life in Arizona, was faithful to his native Indian religion, but later in life it is said he accepted Christian ity. Michael Geronimo, however, ac- cepted the Christian religion and died in the faith, it is said.
 The arrangements for the burial were made by Supt. Henry McQuigg of the San Xavier mission, who took a special interest in the young man.
