WASHINGTON, Nov. 26-Nearly
1000 American troops are expected
to arrive in New York before the

forces to be returned home. The
7o00 now en- route home will be

TYPHOID N ELKENs.

A large number of Typhoid
cases are reported in our sister
town Of Elkins and citizens of that
town are being warned to boil all
drinking water. If any part Of
their water supply comes from the
Tygarts Valley River-then the
waters of this stream must be con-
sidered dangerous. Citizens of Be-
lington are liable to the same dan
ger if our water supply comes from
the same source True we do not
always get river water-But it
would seem to me that at such
times when water is used from this
stream the Water Company should
give due notice of same so as to
safeguard the health of the COM
munity.

WOMAN. ZIG, HAS DAUGHTER
OF 30.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Nov %
Probably the oldest living person in
America is Mrs Sarah Link, 1l6
years old, who is pleasantly passing
her declining days at the home Of
her gradson, Frank Smith, near
Ironsburg, Monroe county, Team.
Family records preserved for more
than century thoroughly anthem
ticate the date Of her birth.
She was born in Cherokee county
NJ c., December 16, 1902. In the
early years of her life she married
man named Smith, and after his
death she was married to Link.
All other members of her family
are deceased, except one daughter,
according to S. V. Long, travel
ling man Of Heiskell, Tenn, who
recently saw Mrs. Link.
Mr.. Long says the venerable
woman enjoys the distinction Of
having never taken dose Of med
icine her life. About nine years
ago her eyes failed and she is now
unable to see. Her hearing Also
became affected and she is almost
deaf. Otherwise she is said to be
in good physical condition, consider
ing her age. She eats three meals
every day and can walk with some
ease but most Of the time she neess
assistance in walking any distance.
While travelling in Monroe Coun-
ty Mr.. Long heard of Mrs. Limk
and travelled several miles out Of
his course to meet her. Mrs. Link
is known ii most people in the com
munity where she lives as aunt
Sallie Smith" She was the moth
err Of several children, but all have
passed away except the daughter,
who is now nearly 90 years Of age.
Owing to defective hearing, Mr..
Long said, he could not ask the
aged woman copcering the early
events Of her remarkable life.

A HANDSOME VICTORY

Early reports did an INJUSTICE to
the Republicans of the Thirteenth
Senatorial District Of West Virginia
as well as to the very able and pop
ular candidate who was elected to
the State Senate from that distri-
ct. The Thirteenth District has
been in the habit of going Demo-
cratic for so long that the wiseacres
concluded that it had gone Demo-
cratic again without taking the
trouble to find out the facts. Her
man G. Johnson was elected to the
State Senate by a majority Of a.
bout $50, Debating Senator Talbot,
who was the Democratic candidate
for the State Senate. Among the
Democratic members of the State
Senate, Mr.. Talbot has had very
enviable reputation, and made a
very worthy opponent to Mr.. john
SON Mr.. Johnson carried Barbour
county by 179, Upshur by 1,427, and
lost Pendleton mad Randolph by
less than 1000 leading the Repub-
hcan ticket in the entire district
Mr.. Johnson is one of the ablest
and most popular young newspaper
men of the state. He is student
of public questions, and, the Intel
ligencer believes, will be a valuable
addition to the Republican major
ity in the State Senate. Wheel

1000 AMERICAN SOLDIERS
ARE NOW ON THEIR WAY HOME
NEW UPRISING HITS GERMANY
REBELS SPLIT.

LONDON, Nov. 22.-The German
revolution has entered its second
stage, that of a death grapple be-
tween the radical and moderate ell
ements of the revolutionaries,
New outbreaks are reported from
Kiel, Hamburg and other coast
towns. That is precisely where the
original upheaval began. Radical
Soivets are said to have replaced
the safe ad sane" Councils.
The position of DR.. Ebert, the
Socialist Chancellor, in the new up
heaval strikingly resembles that of
Kerensky in his losing struggle
with the Soviets of Russia.
There has appeared on the scene
man who may well play the role
of German Korniloff, and that is
Field Marshal Korniloff, who lit
orally hewed his way from Ruman-
ia through Hungary to German
soil and has arrived in Berlin. In
the many military crises in the
west this year the question has
been frequent: why don't they
call Mackensen? 2"
The great cavalry general has a
magnetic hold on the popular mag
nation and also has strong infu-
eneea on a large section of the army.
In any attempted coup d'etat he
might be expected to play leading
part.
The new rebel movement reported
from Germany is believed merely the
continuation of the Bolshevst rising
which was temporarily checked by
the Moderate Socialists Selling con
troll But like the Kernesky Gov
eminent, the Socialist chieftians
at Berlin won their victory mainly
by promises and appeals to love
Of fatherland.
CHARLESTON, W. Va, Nov. 10
191S.-The Baptist laymen of West
Virginia will hold convention in
the Baptist Temple, in Charleston
Dec. 2, 8, and 4. Plans for the con
vention are in the hands of COM
mittee headed by Fred 0. Blue, for
mer state tax commissioner, and
the states first prohibition com
missioner
The program for the convention
has been arranged about the slogan
"A New Church for a New World. :
Speakers of nationwide repute in
the Baptist denomination have been
secured to handle the topics of up
to-dates interest in the religious
world.
Among the speakers will be the
Rev. w. H. Main, D. D., pastor Of
the First Baptist church of Chicago
4 the Rev. J. c. Robbins, secretary
of the Baptist Foreign Missionary
Society; who has just returned
from visit to the far east; the
Rev. A. B. DeRoos, who recently
came back to the United States
from mission work in Mexico City
Mex; and the Rev. F. A. Agar, D
D., the church efficiency expert Of
the denomination.
A state wide appeal to pastors
and leading laymen is being sent
out. The purpose of the movement
is to bring man to the realization
that the church needs their pecu
liar powers in this day of recon
struction and that they, themselves
need the ministry of the things Of
the spirit for which the church
stands.

The season Of the year is here
when people buy their winter sup
plies Of meat Ii the consumers
continues to meet the demand of
farmers for high prices where will
prices stop? When butter reaches
the half dollar mark they will then
demand 60 cents. Pork starts at
90 cents and has mounted in some
cases to &c cts Legitimate profits
are just until they take the form
of greed and t becomes the duty of
the consumers to reduce prices to
the point where it ceases to be a
game of profteering. A glance at
the daily market prices of meats,
butter, etc. in such cities as Pitts
burg are convincing arguments that
small towns are suffering from the
injustice Of high prices which n
many instances are unwarranted.
A few weeks ago a merchant was
over heard to say "He had made
more money during the last twelve
months than ever before" If that
be true nd no doubt s, some one
has been wronged.
