He Leads Them ALL.

John w. MADEIRA, you hear great
many people say, is wonderfully sue
cessful in his news, confectionery
and notion and novelty store. OF
course he is and his business will
continue to thrive as long as he is
at the head of it. The reason that
Mr.. MADEIRA sells such quantities of
goods is because he is always on the
alert for something attractive to
bring customers into his place; be-
cause he is uniformly polite and ac-
commodating, thus making it a
pleasure to deal with him; because
his goods are displayed in good form
he having recently added four more
handsome show cases; because his
goods are always fresh, as he does
not buy in such great quantities,
knowing that the trade is best suit
ed when orders are sent out often.
which insures new goods two or
three times a week. He gets new
candies and fruits every day; gets
fresh cakes and crackers three times
a week; roast peanuts three times a
week, and so on could we enumerate
his entire large stock of specialties.
He sell any book or magazine pub
lished. The last works of fiction
are kept in large quantities, in fact,
if you read of late work you are
pretty certain to find it on sale at
Madera's.
John is, undoubtedly, very enter
prising. His store room is large
one well filed with goods and it is
seldom that we go into his place
that he and Bernie are not both
busy waiting on customers. The
sweet melody of music box lends
its enchanting strains to all who
now enter the store and to look at
all the beautiful articles and the
delicious eatibles which abound in
tempting array combined with the
music leads many to believe they
have come upon a veritable Eden.
Everything is attractive at Madera's
and it is with pleasure that the New
DOMINION notes the progress Of our
townsman. It would be disap-
pointment to lose John from our
business circles and we are simply
yoicing the sentiments Of his legion
Of patrons when We say "long may
be live and his business prosper. =

What An Ohio Paper Says of DIR. Pur.
intOn

The Granville Times speaking of
the election of Prof Purinton as
President of Denison University
says:
MIR. Purinton is forty-two years
old, an alumnus of West Virginia
University, and an energetic. student
of great popularity. Although a
Republican in politics, his merits as
teacher have secured him promo
ton at the hands of Democratic re-
gents, in a state where politics en-
tiers largely into the management of
the State University. Prof. Purin-
ton has been frequent contributor
to magazines and newspapers; and
has written a book or two, which
are highly praised. He will come to
Denison University with much of
his life before him, and there is every
reason to believe that he is just the
man needed to build up educational
interests here.
West Virginia has always been a
valuable feeder for Granville schools,
and this new tie should make more
certain the continuance of such pa
tronage."

"Among the Breakers"

The above popular drama viii
be given at Academy Hall on the
evening of December 49, The per
sons taking part will be from the
people of the Presbyterian church
and though the talent to produce il
is ''home," still it will be put on and
mounted in superb style and those
taking part are already well versed
in their parts, SO that the play will
lose none of it's charms in the pre-
sentation to be given here.
among the Breakers" is play Of
the highest order. Many of our peo-
pie remember HAVING seen it here
once before and the loud calls at
that time for second production OF
it is good evidence of its popularity.
Just three weeks from tomorrow
night all can again have an oppor-
tunity of witnessing it. The plot
of the piece is good with enough
comedy interspersed to make it just
laughable enough, the comedy char
acters being Scud, negro, and Lar
ry, an Irishman, though Biddy Bean
of the latter nationality, will con-
tribute largely to the mirth provok-
ing parts. In fact there is delight
full combination of tragedy and
comedy, with not too much of either.
The proceeds of the entertainment
will go into the treasury of the Pres
byterian church. The old folks have
all made up their minds to attend
and now the children should get the
promises that they may go and we
are certain that the young men are
saving up in order to take all their
lady friends.
Keep the date in your mind and
attend among the Breakers is
the very best of serio-comic produc-
tions and the chance to see it should
not be missed. At Academy Hall,
Thursday evening, Dec. 10.

They Responded to Our Call.

The New DoMINIoN's call for the
aid of Mrs. Lee Cooper and family
was generously responded to by our
people. When it become known
that Mrs. Cooper's youngest child
was but four weeks old people APP
preciated how straitened her circum-
stances were. Thursday a wagon
was sent around and clothes in
abundance, eatables of all kinds and
a liberal amount of money was sent
to the sufferers, and now the family
is cheered by the munificence of a
nd-hearted people and is showering
blessings upon them, The little son
was offered work in several different
places.
Mrs. Cooper is from one of the
best families in the county, her
name having been Stevens. Her on
ly fault seems to have been in link
ing her life to broken reed, who
left her at time when his minis
trations to her welfare were most
needed.

The Proposed Factory

The business men who are now
raising the money with which to
start the new planning mill, foundry
and machine shop have succeeded in
getting nearly $4,000 of the $4,000
necessary. The first of the week a
letter was received from Mr.. Perry
S. Tygard, who planned the project
ed works and who was to raise an
additional $4,000, making the entire
investment $4,000, that he desired
to invest $4,000 instead of the
amount first agreed upon if the peo-
pie having the matter in charge
here were agreeable to that PROPOSE
ton. The question now arises
whether or not Mr.. Tygard means
that the capital stock of the compa-
ny shall be $4,000 with half of the
amount to be raised here or that the
stock shall be according to the or.
iginal proposition, and in the latter
case that he shall put in $4,000
against our $4,000. If the former of
these propositions is meant there is
no chance at all Tor our folks,as xl0.-
600 could not be gathered at all, and
the hope for the factory would as
well be considered dead letter, but
if he means that he will invest in the
ratio as is to 10, why the matter is
a certainty and by the first zephyrs
of early spring the smoke from the
stacks will be waited heavenward.
Such at present is about the status
of the factory question. By the lat.
ter part of the present week Mr.. Ty-
gard will have ventilated his pro-
posal more definitely and we will
then know once and for all if the
factory is a go or no.
If the original scheme Of the &c.
500 were put in practical shape it
would prove as good as any that
could be designed. But let US again
hear from Mr.. Tygard.

Death Of George Lennon.

George Lennon, who had been
the oldest citizen in this community
for many years, died at his home in
South Morgantown Tuesday evening
Nov. 10. His death was sudden, re-
sulting from heart failure and sheer
exhaustion, and took place at time
in the evening which cannot be def
nitely settled, as he was found on
the floor the following morning by
son of John Madagan and his con-
dition at that time showed life had
been extinct for several hours. His
wife is a helpless invalid and did not
know of her husbands death the
long night through. An inquest was
held over the body, the verdict, in
substance, being as stated above.
His remains were laid to rest in Oak
Grove cemetery the following Fri
day.
Mr.. Lennon was native of Ire
land and was by occupation linen
weaver In 1888 he emigrated to
America, landing in Philadelphia,
where he worked at his trade for a
short time. He then came west as
far as Uniontown and in 1910 came
to Morgantown. Here he has been
ever since He took contracts for
grading roads and building sites,
worked hard and faithfully at this
business and saved considerable
money. Shortly after coming here
he married Susannah Kincaid, an
older sister of Joseph Kincaid. She
is three years his senior. Four chill
dren were born to this union, two
sons and two daughters, all now de-
ceased, but daughter, Mary, wife
of Peter Weinig.
He was 81 years of age at his
death and for over 20 years had not
been able to do hard work, but man
aged his small competency in such
way as to supply the few wants of
himself and wife. He was a man of
most exemplary and correct habits
and consistent member of the Pres
byterian church. No one knows of
single enemy he had or one who
bore him the least ill-will. He
leaves an estate of about $4,000 in
money and little real estate.
