BrcEHAyNoy, May 2G.-Local interest is
being manifested in the State Teachers
Association which convenes here in July.
Committees have been appointed to pro-
vide for the entertainment Of the peds-
gogues. A pleasant and profitable time is
anticipated. Buckhannon is becoming an
educational centre. Professor Stevens is
doing a fine work here, and we hope his
college will reach an early completion.
The Latest Enterprise
is the opening up of Hughes & Landin's
wood manufacturing mill, which footed
its first blast last Tuesday. The wood tac-
tory is under way and machinery for the
chair factory on hand. 1t is expected that
a bent wood factory will be established at
an early day. A number OF enterprlslng
gentlemen of this place including MAJOR
Hevner, EN NGovernOr Farnsworth, pr:
Newlin, Captain Moffett Levi Leonard
and Mr.. Hadkins. of the bank, are nego-
tiating with parties IN New YORK looking
10 a reorganization OF the Boone Company
and the erection of machinery for the man
ufacture of bent woods. II the enterprise
proves a success il will be the means OF
bringing from 75 to 100 additional families
TO our town.
Church News.
The contract for completion OF the new
Methodist church was let yesterday TO
Hughes 4 LOndin. Ii Is expected 10 be
ready for dedication by the 25th OF Sep
tember, and will be one of the handsomest
church structures in the State The pres
ent pastor, Rev. Lee, is one of the most
popular ministers in the conference.
Rev. A. d. Carlisle is supplying the pull
pit O: the Presbyterian church. He IS
SON of the late John s. Carlisle, OF Cisrks-
burg and inheriting the magic oratory CT
his DISTINGUISHED father, gives promise oil
being q star in the ministry.
The Railroad
makes haste slowly. 1t is gradually creep
ing this way, at q Snails gallop. 1t is
within three miles OF town and is expected
to be completed up 10 the city within the
next ten days. The break OF an engine on
the Western and Clarksburg division caus-
ed the withdraw of the locomotive from
this end OF the road and delay IN work
for several days. Its whistle was heard at
I.orentz this morning and the presumption
is that work has commenced.
Court Currency.
The County Court on Monday entered its
protest against the 80 per cent increase IN
valuation of real estate. Protests are fash
iOnable with County Courts about this
time. Excuse an anecdOte.
Judge Evermont Ward, while on the
bench, once fined McComas, an attorney
of celebrity in Logan for persistently rails
ing his boot heels over the bar and pre-
senting the soles to the view OF the Court
during its session. II protest against this
unwarranted assumption of judicial au'
thority," fiercely cried the attorney as he
sprung to his feet. =,
"Do you hear that, Mr.. Sheriff. yelled
the Judge. This Court is insulted with
protest. To the fine Of twenty dollars
add Imprisonment for thirty days in the
county Jail. Remove the offender, Mr..
Sheriff"
May it please your honor" and the
voice OF the protestant was as mild as
summer breeze, II withdraw my protest.
The Court. good naturedly, accepted the
disclaimer.
II may be that by the time the Board OF
Euuslization gets through there will be
some withdrawal OF protests.
The Women
throughout the country are raising pro-
test against the Auditors egg and chick
en-" assessment order. No yellow legged
chickens for the handsome official when he
trayerses the rural districts in his new
canvass.
! hear many encomiums on the REGISTER
and its enterprise. IF we had Ich pa.
per" remarked q Republican the other
day, I'VE could count on carrying the
State next year" As it is they dent
count on IT.
