THERE will be an election of Di-
rcctors of the Second National bank

the Second National people are keep
ing lookout all the time for loca-
tien to erect new banking build

The flower of the winter fashion
and fad, the crysanthemum, is re-
ceiving more care and extensive cut
tivation here now than during past
seasons. 1t has been decreed that
the crysanthemum has come to stay,
and if you don't cultivate it there is
something short of completion to
your being strictly in it,
The South Morgantown Planning
mills have risen from the ashes AID
are now doing business in their new
building. The establishment is by
no means so well prepared as before
their disastrous fire, but new addi-
tions are constantly to be made until
the place will be an Improvement

MONDAY next has been designa-
ted by the powers that be as ma
tional holiday, the Christmas obser-
vances to take place then by all in
situations which the government has
anything to say about. The banks
and postofiice are the only institu-

business houses will be closed in
observance of Christmas.
THOSE who ought to know say the
mail run on the F. M. & p. when the

fulfill his prophecy.
THERE are two more thieves who
are beyond hope of capture, one be
ing the man who stole the watch
from Ridgway and the other is the
man who picked up the pocket book
dropped by Sergeant Turner while
he was pursuing the watch litter.
They are both in that place known
as nobody knows where. The watct
thief got away by the sprintine
qualities he so well showed off, but
the money thief has concealed his
identity. He took the money out
and left the pocketbook to simply
show he is perhaps. Anyhow tn,
money is gone and it is hard los!
