Oor Band Concert.
The concert given on last
Thursday night by the First
Regiment Band was well attend
ed and enjoyed in the fullest
measure by those who were pres
ent. Many who knew the excel
lence of this body of musicians
were prepared for something
grand but even these were agree
ably disappointed when they
heard the many beautiful phases
of this program. Some of the
selections were immensely ex
citing and bordered closely on the
dramatic. Mr. E. B. Dolin who
is now managing these concerts
and instructing the band, has
shown his marvelous powers as
a musician to the satisfaction of
all. The concert was not all
confined to band music and the
vocal efforts of Mr. A. K.
Thorn and Misses Mollie.Hursey
and Lucy Steel were cer
tainly grand. Mr. Thos. Dolin's
soio was received with hearty
applause and Gus Smith with his
clarionet proved himself to be
one of the sweetest warblers. To
the marrlwi folks would be but a
feeble expression. During all
the solos, the piano was sending
forth its sweetest cadences under
the skillful and cultured touch 6f
Miss Gay Duncan. The rendition
of Verdi's 2Z lYowxtoreiti^Sfhlch
several additional young men
uniquely costumed, joined in with
anvils was certainly grand.
Mr. E. B. Dolin's Eupho
nium solo, The Volunteer, was well
rendered and received with
hearty applause. This apprecia
tion of his talent, as a musical
genius was fittingly appropri
ate. P. W. Dolin rendered a
very excellent cornet solo and
the climax came when the whole
coterie was turned on Bucalossi's
celebrated "Hunting Scene."
This was a genuine concatenation
of warlike demonstrations and
the sweeter' and holier serenities
of nature.
In Memorlam.
Died:?At his home near Quiet
Dell, Elk district, on Nov. 2d, '93,
JohnG. Rider, son of the late
Rev. Adam Rider. He was 46
years old, having been born Jan.
28d, 1847. He helped defend our
nation in the ranks of the 12th
W. Va. Infantry during the late
civil war. The deceased was
converted at old Horeb church
during the winter of 1867, since
which time he lived a consistent
christian life; this fact was shown
to the writer by his testimony
given about 48 hours before his
decease. In answer to the ques
tion, "How do you feel in regard
to your future welfare?'' he said
"I have no uneasiness whatever,
if it were not f<Sr the grief of my
family and friends I would con
sider the journey a pleasant one.
llis patient waiting for the com
ing glory of Immortality was
extremely peaceful; he lived a
peaceful christian life and died a
conqueror. As a christian he
was sweet in spirit, fervent in
devotion and promptin testimony
to the life and power of the gos
pel to save from sin, and was an
example in his last hours on earth
of the saving power of the gos
pel of Christ. His devoted wife
and four children survive him
and have the sympathy of the
community in which they live.

Should yon spill ink upon the
carpet or upon a woolen table
cloth, immediately sprinkle over
it a thick layer of common salt
When this has absorbed all the
ink that it can, carefully scrape
tt off and apply some more. If
your carpet has an ink spot upon
it that you didn't know how to
attack at the time of the accident,
moisten it with hot water. Be
careful not to use enough water
to make the ink spread. Then
apply the salt. Your success
will not be complete, but the
tspot will become dim and per
haps will not be noticable.
