TIE two colored men confined in
Jail here for being engaged in the rob
berry at the Hough House few weeks
ago, made an attempt to escape last
Wednesday evening. They wrenched
the heavy iron hinge off the lid of
the sink and used it as a tool to force
an exit from the Jail. They succeed
ed in removing four or five bricks,
when the noise they made attracted
the attention of Tailor Camp, who
Immediately went to the cell, took
from them the hinge and handcuff-
ed the prisoners, which will prevent
another such attempt. Mr.. Camp,
while engaged in Handwriting them,
found another watch concealed up
on the person of one Of the men,
Vest Virginian.

uce, such as flour, bacon, butter, eggs

farmers will get or 10 cts. in money

As an evidence Of what q narrow
guage railroad can do in the way of
earning money, it is shown that the
receipts of the Waynesburg and
Washington Narrow Guage Railroad
for the month of February amounted
to $1,I00-$900 of which was from
passengers. The actual expenses of
running the train which earned the
money were less than S400.-Er.

MoRGANTowN GRADED School
The Morgantown Graded School will
close on Wednesday, May LIST, after a
session of eight months. From what
we know of its workings and of those
of neighboring towns we unqualified
ly pronounce it the most successful
school of its class within our knowl-
edge. For several years Prof H. L.
Cox has been its principal and as the
patrons of the school are unwilling
that he sever his connection with it;
we conclude that his labors are ap-
preciated. The influence of this
school upon our community is not
small by any means. Here year af-
ter year, its corps of female teachers
in conjunction with the principal,
work faithfully and patiently and
mould the characters of the men and
women who compose the greatest part
of the community. The majority of
orr mechanics and business men Of
the future will come from this insti-
tuition and it is the solemn duty of
each parent who sends child here to
give the instructors all the encourag-
mant they can. Cherish your schools
if you would have your children grow
up virtuous and useful members of
society.

IT is painful fact that for some
time past rowdyism has been reign
ing almost supreme in some parts Of
our peaceful village, especially after
night, when most of our citizens have
gone to bed. If our opinions are
good for anything, we are under the
impression it is high time that some
severe measures were taken to put a
stop to the night-howling along our
streets.

LAST Tuesday Mrs, j. X, Durr met
with quite an adventure while fordirg
the river at Collins Ferry. Getting a
little out of the track and into deep

pushed on to TT, Martin and returned
all right in the afternoon.
