Warrants Not Served.

Charleston, w. Va, Sept. 3.-Sher- if Walker of Kanawha county of which Charleston is a part, has not yet been able to serve warrants upon District Presiden- C. F. Keeney and District Secretary Fred Mooney of the United Mine Workers who were indicted in Mingo county for alleged connection with the shooting in that county several months ago. Neither official has been at the miners head quarters since the sheriff received the warrants on Wednesday.
 It was said here that members of the orga niza ton know where they can be found and that the accused men will surrender themselves as soon as they have satisfactory assurances their lives will be protected. It is also said they want assurance they will be ad mitted to bail. A representative of the miners said it was believed the state would fight any movement to release the men on bonds. A change of venue from Mingo county would be asked if Keeney and Mooney are placed on trial in Mingo county, 1t was said.

OF our synod it was solemnIy re-

our church members for this most
holy sacrament, because a decline
IN attendance had been noticed in
the record for the past year. May
the Lords Table ever be the most
attractive place where his brethren
rejoice to meet with him. 1t is a
toretaste of the heavenly commu-
mon. Let US now remember, that
every first Sunday in the month
we have Holy Communion during
the morning service at Extra, and
the following Sunday morning at
Hamlln. Last Sunday the teachers
staff of the Hamlin Sunday school
entertained their pupils pupils at a
picnic in the woods southeast Of
town. Wednesday evening the
Y. T. society of Hamlin have a
lawn social at the Niels Ratten-
borg place. In spite of the hot
weather and the busy season the
Extra Ladies' Aid had we'll
attended meeting out with Mrs.
Hans K. Petersen, south of town.
Next Sunday morning we will
have no service in Extra but we
will attend the union service at
Chautauqua. Afternoon service at

Roasting by Mail

Anon | write a lay inspired,
that l believe will hit the spot;
alas, it makes some readers tired
they call it balderdash and rot.
They write to me in bitter tones,
and say am a false alarm; they
cannot see how | draw bones for
verse that has so little charm.
Then on the willow tree | hang
my Tyre that brought me such dis
grace, and go and join the weep
ing gang around the we'll known
walling place. The savage letter
is a sign that someone's liver's out
of plumb; no misfit madrigal of
mine should make the harsh epis-
ties come. Some fellows lift my
hide by mail, and that a safe and
pleasant stunt; if face to face
they'd doubtless quail before my
fierce and Mars-like front. Some
times write such screeds myself.
-halr-lifting letters bold and
stern; but then place them on
the shelf, or put them in the stove
to burn. When | feel sad and
tired and sore, it does me good to
take pen, and write ten thous-
and words or more, denouncing all
my fellowmen. | rake my foes
and cook them brown, and strive
to do them wordy harm; but when
the stuff is written down | would
not mail it for a farm. When one
has mailed a bitter note, he gasps
to see how small he's grown; he
hoped to get another's goat, and
finds that he has got his own.
