REV. A. l.. WADE in a letter to the
Wheeling Standard last week speaks
of our graded school and its teachers
in flattering terms. After speaking
of the school and the Principal he
says
Prof. Cox has had charge Of this
school SIX consecutive years. Each year
of his administration the school has
grown better, the discipline stricter, the
attendance more regular, the work of
the school room more thorough, and
the annual examinations more satisfac-
tory TO the patrons of the school. Prof,
Cox il native of Monongalia county
and a brother of Prot. L. S. Cox, Su,
perintendent of the Parkersburg city
schools, and is about 40 years T age.
He has an excellent farm near town, is
in easy circumstances, and has, fro IN
choice, been engaged in the educaton>
al work most of his life.
Bat | would not leave the impress
sion that the success which has attend
ed the Morgantown graded school un>
der Prof. Cox, is all due to his own
work. He has, each year, had a corps
of competent assistants. Miss Sadie Il,
Coyle has been employed in this school
from the time the free school system
went into operation here. Miss Coyle
is daughter of Rev. John Coyle, 'oi
the Pittsburgh Conference, NJ, L.
Churchr.
Miss Laura Shisler has been en-
ployed for five years in succession

ter of John ProtzmaN, Esq, of this

Miss Anna Campbell is dangh-
ter of the widow Campbell, of this
place.
The three last named have each
taught but one term.
Misses Hayes and Protzman arc

If you don't think business has re-
vived somewhat look at our advertis-
ing columns this week. And we de-
clined several too, and know of sever.

of town or community. We hope
there will be no abatement in this
direction soon.

The FRUM CASE AGAIN-"Bully'
Frum, who it will be remembered es-
capped from the custody of special
constable James johnson last week,
was retaken by Sheriff Hackney Sat
urday last, and refusing to allow his
friends to give bond for his care and
custody was committed to Jail. Sat
urday night about eight o'clock he
commenced loud harangue, which
soon attracted a large crowd of
roughs, both large and small, who in
dulged in making responses to the re
marks he made and in various ways
contributing to keep up perfect pan
demonium in the vicinity of the Jail
much to the annoyance of the citizens
of that neighborhood. While this was
going on the members of our very eff
ficient (?) police force were conspic-
uous for their absence. In our opin-
ion the carrying on in the ncighbor-
hood of the Jail Saturday night can
not but reflect disgrace and shame
upon our borough laws, either this or
their non execution is and should be
punished as crime. 1t is to be ho-
ped the Mayor will take prompt meas
ures to suppress such scandalously
disgraceful conduct, conduct which
bears upon its face the greatest i'm
morality and indecency.

WE would respectfully suggest to
the good lovers of fish at Grafton that
they must build ladders for the fish
to climb over at the Valley Falls before
they can expect the Fish Commits
sioner in the upper Tygarts Valley.
We want the fish commissioners here
at Morgantown, though, badly. Fish
are getting very scarce hereabouts.
