Hon. Frank NJ Chalfant and wife,
of Pt. Marion. were in town recently
en- route to Weston.
IT IS safe to predict that the f.,
NJ. d z. r. will be extended to Fair
chance next summer.
A HOST of witnesses were here from
Marion county to testify in the case
of the State vs. Walton.
THE masquerade ball to be given
at Armory Hall on the evening OF
the Both will be the swell affair OF
the season.
PRor. S. b. Brown and eighteen
members of the geology class Of the
University, spent Saturday in the
ravens, near Ellington, straddling
strattas
Our City Fathers have wisely de-
cided to enlarge the wharf. While
IL is the best one between here and
McKeesport it is too small to accom-
commodate the trade.
A LARGE force of men are at work
on the creamery building. This bust
ness will pay so we'll that before a
year great many more farmers will
tain int IT,
While attending court take
your meals, or lunch at Ross
Restaurant next to Wallace
House.
The surface drain which was put
down few days ago from the Post
office to Front street completes the
finishing touches of the improve
ments on Pleasant street. Thanks
gentlemen of the council.
PEOPLE who remember that the
gas was shut off several times last
winter for a few hours are laying in a
reserve supply of coal for the cold
season. 1t is not bad idea to keep
one coal fire for an emergency.
The Morgantown Building and
Investment Co.'S apartment house on
Pleasant street is under roof. 1t
makes fine showing, and aside from
the new court house attracts more
attention from strangers than any
building in town.
AN ocean of apple jack and cider
will be made this season in Monon-
gala. 1t will be a long time before
morning bitters will be scarce. The
vets are happy, and the bloom on
their proboscis' is taking on a deep
er, richer carmine hue.
AT regular meeting of the town
council the Board of Health presen-
ted list of about fifty hog pens,
water closets &C., that should be
cleaned out and dsinfected. No ac-
ton was taken in the matter which
was laid over till the next meet
ing. No business worthy of note
was transacted by council.
W. S. WELroN and fs mily left this
place on last Wednesday for Park
ersburg where they will reside.in the
future. Mr.. Welton has secured a
good position with the enterprising
firm Of Shattuck & jackson, of that
city. He is most excellent gentle
man and has made host Of friends
during his stay in this place who re-
greet his leaving. -Indec.
IT WOULD not cost great deal to
have Brewery effaced from the
Armory. The boys who defaced the
building by painting that word on
1t should be caught and punished.
It is possible, however, that the
University authorities consider that
the building, judging by the appear
ance, is well named, and that the
artist who did the lettering merits
praise.
HE wells from which Greensburg,
Pa, gets its gas are about exhausted
and the gas company has shut off the
street lamps. At the same time the
city water works were shut down and
there will be no water till it rains.
1t seems that Morgantown is the
chosen of Gods towns, for our gas
appears to be inexhaustible, and our
water comes from never failing noun
tain springs.
TYPHOID fever is raging in Nor
gantown.-Spigit of Jefferson. This
is not trne and has not been true
this summer. Morgantown is very
healthy place, as much so as any
town in the State. The only
trouble with it is that some of it's
people live too long-Indec. And
the only trouble we can find with
several of our neighboring towns is
that the citizens will not shoot their
newspaper liars full of port holes.
A GENTLEMAN, who was never
known to drink intoxicants, went to
one Of our drug stores recently to get
a few ounces of liquor for a lady who
was very sick. but the druggist re-
fused to sell less than a dollar bot
tie, even, on prescription Is this not
carrying the prohibition question
little too far? Any reputable physi-
clans prescription should be honored
for any amount of whisky named in
it. and people should not be forced
to buy more than they wanted.
PURSUANT to the orders of Post
master General Wanamaker for the
postmaster at the county seat of ev-
cry county to visit and report the
condition of all the offices in the
county, Postmaster Davis made the
rounds in Monongalia, and has sent
in his report. He found all of the
Al offices visited in good condition.
There was no particular fun in visit
ing the offices as Mr.. Davis had to
ride about 300 miles over our de-
lightful (?) roads.
AMONG the many visitors to the
Pittsburg Exposition yesterday were
Samuel M. Hardy and wife, of near
Morgantown, w. Va. This worthy
aged couple had come down by the
boat to see the sights of the great
city, not having been in Pittsburg
for 20 years. They are each about
10 years Of age, and the old gentle
man said: "Mother and | intended
coming down to Pittsburg two or
three years ago to the County Cen
tennial, but two-or three days before
