TIE STATE REFORM SCHOOL.
The Commission to locate the State Re
.orn school is at Parkersburg. Every
place that has strong hopes Of securing the
school, with the exception OF Wheeling,
has a committee on the glo1nd to look
after its interests. Wheeling is not 60
represented. This is a grave error.
Wheeling is the spot where tire Reform
School should he located beyond doubt.
Ohio county win have more use for such a
school than any olhes three counties in the
State. and probably as much as all the re-
nainder of tho State together Besides
our own large population there is
% constant influx Of boys to Wheel
iug from every portion Of the
State. and When one OF these gets into
mischief, or is incorrigibis, all that can

The Reform School should undoubtedly
be located IN Ohio county.

the additional fact that Ohio county can

ORE HILL.

John Barnett and wife are visiting with their son, George F. Barnett.
 The grading for the new route of the railroad is progressing slowly. The teams have nearly all been discharged and dump-cars are used in their stead. When the work is completed the rail- Toad bridge at Ore Hill, which is now dreaded by some, will be thing of the past. The depot is getting crazy, but Agent Fenn is trying to make himself and the public as comfortable as possible. I think he has the pluck to stick to the chip until she goes down.
 The new office of the Brook Pit Mining Go is to Ore Hill what the new passenger depot is to Lakeville, quite an elegant affair, w. w. Raynsford, architect.
 We think Ore Hill Sunday-school had it's full share of Christmas cheer. Gu Christmas night teams being pro- vided, all went to Lakeville and joined with the Lakeville Sunday school in their festivities. The following evening they assem bled at the school-house and after an interesting and pleasing service of singing, recitations, etc., presents were distributed to all from beautiful Christmas tree. Rev D. Phillips and wife, who were present, were presented with an elegant hanging lamp. At the close of the service Santa made his appearance, to the surprise of nearly all, having seen the old fellow so loaded down the night before at Lakeville and for us too, we did not think he could or would be out the day after Christmas.
