THEIR FIRST TERMS L ' WEST VIRGINIA REPUBLICANS GIVE FUNCTION IN.JHEIB HONOR J ^ Speeches by Senator Scott, Representa tives Dayton, Dovener, Lacey and Others. An enjoyable occasion was the annual I banquet of the West Virginia Republican Association, held at the Riggs House last evening. About 150 persons, nearly all na tives of the "war state," renewed old ac quaintanceships, talked over old times and had a good time generally, it has been the custom of the association each year to give a reception in honor of new members or either branch of Congress from West Virginia. Last evening's function was in honor of Representatives Joseph H. Gaines and James A. Hughes, who are serving their first term in the House. Among the guests were some of the state officers of West Virginia and their wives, and Repre- k sentatlve Lacey of Iowa, who is a native of the state. Senator Dolliver of Iowa, also a native of the state, was detained by a previous engagement. Preceding the banquet was a reception to the new members in the parlors of the hotel. It was nearly 10 o'clock when the party gathered about the tables in the ban quet room, which was especially decorated for the occasion with plants, palms, flow ery and bunting. Mr. C. M. Shinn presided as toastmaster. The speeches were all fe licitous and brought forth much applause Senator Elkins. who was to have made the address of welcome, was unavoidably ab stnt. In his stead Representatives Dayton I and Dovener spoke briefly. The former ex- | tended a warm welcome to the new mem bers and wished them success and a long experience in their new positions. The lat ter added words of welcome and congratu lated the association on its large member ship and wished it prosperity. How He Broke Into Congress. ! "Mr. Gaines will now tell us hovibhe broke Into Congress," Mr. Shinn said, Introducing the next speaker. Mr. Gaines and Mr. Hughes were both down on the program to respond to the toast, "Thanks, Awfully." Mr. Gaines said he had wondered frequent ly of late not only how he broke into Con gress, but why he broke in. He said he felt flattered at the testimonial of esteem mil friendship tendered by the association, and closed by wishing the organization sue- I cess, and pledging himself to always do all In his power to promote the Interests of West Virginia. "Mr. Hughes will tell us why he doesn't represent two states," said the toastmaster, introducing the second new representative. Mr. Hughes was born in Canada, and re tided in Kentucky,, where he served a term in the legislature, before1 removing to West Virginia. /? "I do not feel called upon to reply to I the insinuation of our worthy toastmas ter," said Mr. Hughes, Z'so will pass over his little remark. I \will say, however, that there are some things I can do, and some I cannot?this is one of the latter. I thank you, though; for Uie honor I feel in being present this evening. My lateh strlng is supposed to be out always to tho citizens of West Virginia, and I want to I tell you it is also out to this association. I I will be most happy to <Jo all in my power I for any of you at any time." I Senator Scott's Tribute to His State, j Senator Nathan B. Scott spoke briefly to I his old friends. He said h: desired to ex- I tend the right hand of fellowship and best wishes to the new representatives, and he I wished them success in their careers, which I he hoped would be long. He then spoke I of the progress niado by West Virginia in all branches of industry and in wealth in the past decade. He gave some interesting (lata regarding die coal and coke industry I and the manufactures of the state, inter spersing his remarks with enjoyable anee- I dotes. Responds for Iowa. Representative Lacey responded to the I toast "Iowa," which has become such an I important factor in the present administra tion. His remarks were of a humorous na- I ture. He was successful in hedging on the J comparative merits of West Virginia, where I he was born, and the state where he now resides. "We have 50.000 square miles of land out in Iowa. ' said Mr. Lacey. "and It lies right flat on Its back and looks up at the sun. It doesn't stand on edge. And I want to I tell you that In the entire state there are I not forty acres in one piece on which a I West Virginia family cannot make a liv ing. Iowa has produced, and is still pro- I during, some great men, but I want you to I know that her last addition to the nation? I the new Secretary of the Treasury?is one of the brainiest, smartest, soundest, all around best qualified men in the country." I The Governor of the State. | Governor White of West Virginia followed Mr. Lacey. "We have a population of a million in West Virginia," he said, "and I thought 1 had provided all of them with I offices, yet 1 come here and see a great I many more holding government offices whom I didn't know anything about. I suppose all of you hold an office -of some I kind, and^ that you're looking for advance ment. Well, if you are. I don't blame you for toasting your congressman. It shows you've got an eye for business. And don't forget that your congressman can do more for you than your governor, for this civil service, you know, like Tennyson's brook, runs on and on forever. It has been a great pleasure and a great honor for me to be with you tonight, and 1 assure you I indorse all that has been said by those who have preceded me." The governor said the people back home are entirely satisfied with their new repre sentatives in Congress, and he for one hope*] to see them re-elee-ted. He said the fifth representative allowed the state by the last census will be a republican?like ail the rest of the delegation. Speeches were also made by Mr. John W. I-a tig ley, appointment clerk of the census bureau; Mr. T. W. Cridler, late assistant secretary of state, and Mr. Elliott Nortcott, assistant United States district attorney for West Virginia.

Sppi-ial Currtspowlonce of The Kvonlng Star. ROCKVILLE, Md.. March 5, 1902. Mr. Charles Joseph McCarthy and Miss Mary Hickey, both of Washington, were married yesterday afternoon by Rev. Charles O. Rosensteel, pastor of St. John s Catholic Church, at Forest Glen. The young folks visited Rockville earlier in the day for the purpose, and, after securing the necessary license, proceeded to St. Mary's Catholic Church, where, according to ar rangement, a Washington priest was to meet them and make them man and wife. It seems there was a misunderstanding as to the hour, and when the young Washing tonians arrived at the church they were in formed that the minister, after waiting an hour or more, had returned to the city, thinking something had prevented them from keeping the engagement. The resi dent priest was out of town, so there was nothing for them to do but depart. They left on an electric car, but instead of stop ping in Washington proceeded to Forest Glen, where they found Father Rosensteel, who performed the all-important ceremony. Mr. Franklin Lloyd Dement of Washing ton and Miss Mollie Stewart Kneas of Brightwood, who visited Rockville in the afternoon, had less trouble. They came out by an electric car, and fifteen minutes after their, arrival were pronounced man and wife by Rev. S. R. White of the Baptist Church. The ceremony was performed in the office of the board of county public school commissioners in the court house, and was witnessed by quite a number of persons, including nearly all of the court house officials. The age of the groom was given as twenty-one years and eleven months and that of the bride as eighteen. It is understood it was a runaway match. he board of county school commissioners at a meeting held here yesterday confirmed the appointments of Miss Sarah G. Soper as principal of the school at SpencerviHe, vice C. M. Burdette, resigned, and of Millie M. Jenkins as principal of the colored school at Poolesville, in place of Rachel D. Wall, resigned. The resignations of C. D. El dredge as principal of the Barnesvllle school and of Mr. J. E. Briggs, as trustee of the school at Oakmont, were accepted. Secretary White reported the enrollment for the winter term as follows: White schools, 3,667; colored schools, 2,086; total, 5,753. Average daily attendance?White schools, 2,280; colored schools, 1,280; total average daily attendance, 8,560. Messrs. Edward C. Peter and Alexander Kilgour, as trustees, yesterday sold to Mr. William F. Garber of Washington the farm of the late William Peerce, situated near Wheaton, and containing 140 acres, for <12,062.30. ? s The Rockville base ball team has organis ed for the season. Mr. W. Russell Brewer will be the manager, and the team will be selected from the following candidates: W. Russell Brewer, Brooke Edmondston, Ed ward Dawson, Emory Bagley, Albert Rab bitt, R. J.

Manager Brewer is arranging a schedule, and will be glad to hear from teams in and near Wash ington. Roads Rendered Impassable. Special CV'irespciudence of The BVenlng Star. LAUREL, Md.f March 6, 1002. Not in the memory of many of the oldest residents have the county roads in this sec tion been in such a condition as they pre sent at this time. The recent thaw, com ing as it did after a protracted freeze, the influence of which extended several feet below the surface level of the ground, has made of the roads veritable quagmires. Heavy traffic of all sorts is impossible. Broken vehicles have resulted where the effort was made to extricate them from the muddy embrace of the roads. Some of the streets of the town are axle deep in places. The rural free de livery is meeting with almost insurmount able obstacles, and. indeed, in some places the delivery has had to be abandoned, al though two carriers have been employed where in the past only one was necessary. The storm of snow, rain and sleet which visited this section yesterday lias wrought a great deal of damage to the trees of the town. In some instances branches six inches in diameter were broken by the weight of sleet with which th<jy wen coated. The local municipal electric light plant has also suffered severely. The wires are down in all sections of the town, and it is stated that the town will be in darkness for more than a week while the repairs are being made. Mrs. Klizabeth Shipley Fisher, the wife 'of Mr. Nimrod Fisher, died suddenly Tues day morning at her home in Savage. Md. Mrs. Fisher attained the ripe age of sev enty-three years. She was the mother of Mr. James M. Fisher and Mr. Elwood H. Fisher, both of this town. Snow Storm Impedes Travel. Special < ui respondenoe uf Tbe Evening Star. BOYD S. Md., March 5, 1902. Snow began falling here last night and continued several hours. This morning early snow again began to fall, which sub sequently changed to rain and hail. About 7 o'clock there was an electrical display over the telegraph wires and the switch board in the telegraph office here, which was repeated at intervals for almost an hour. Snow fell here to a depth of about seven inches. At Washington Junction, thirteen miles west of here, snow fell to a depth o? a foot or more, and at Weverton and between there aim llagerstown it fell to a depth of eighteen inches or more, a high wind getting under it and drifting the roads and railroad tracks to a depth of three to four and: five feet in places, delay ing train? on that branch of the railway. The Maryland legislature's refusal to ap propriate $100,000 for a suitable exhibit of the state's resources at St. Louis is being severely criticised by people in this section of the county. It Is understood that local Insurance agents in this county and Frederick county have received notices from their respective companies to increase the ccst of all insur ance 25 per cent on all classes of property, except farm property, dwellings and churches. The coal barge Cardenas was towed into Newport News Wednesday after having been helplessly adrift for twenty-nine days. The city of Seattle elected Mr. Humes, republican, mayor. 4?
