"rHE PRIVATE SECRETARY"

1.-THE Private Secretary" will be seen
at the Opera House next Friday and
Saturday evenings. The New Orleans
Critic says; The first legitimate per-
formances of the season are those OF
THE Private Secretary" now being
given at the Peoples Theatre. It's re-
freshing to turn from the coarse, knock
about horse play and dramatic absurd
tiles with which the stage abounds, at
present, to clean cut, refined, and
highly artistic production Of the legiti-
mate dramatic school, such as 1.-The
Private Secretary" Mr.. Travers' COM
pany is a first-class one in every re-
spect. each one seems especially fitted
for the part assigned him, or her, and
in not trying to overdo, each helps the
other to make great success OF the
whole.

The surveying corps OF the Wheel
ing and Connellsville Company is work
ing right along, and up to Saturday
night about seventy miles had been
covered since leaving this city, the
corps being about FIVE miles from I'm
iontown. There has been much specu-
Iation as to where this company will
finally locate its line between Elm
Grove and this city. At least two
routes are practicable. One is to go
back OF the County Intirmary and tun-
mel the hill TO Caldwell's run, where
there would be direct connections with
the Terminal Company's property
and yards along Twenty-ninth
street. Another route would
be to follow the creek and
parallel the Wheeling and Elm Grove
line to point opposite the Park, ana
thence keep along the north bank OF the
creek to Fulton. There has been some
talk to the effect that the w. u G. had
already made overtures TO the Wheeling
and Elm Grove for its present right OF
way from the Park to Elm Grove, along
the creek the Elm Grove to find new
line up towards the hill, but a large
stakeholder in the Elm Grove said the
matter had not progressed farther than
talk, and be thought nothing would
come of it, there being room alongside
the w. & E. g. tracks for another road.

The Mogantown Extension of the b. s o.


The reports that come singly and
in groups of rights of way being Sc
cured, of contractors pushing work
they are on by increased forces and be-
ginning new work, of loans being ne
gotiated in the Eastern cities by the b.
& o. Company to be applied to the ex-
tension OF the +. M. & p. division OF
that road, all have peculiar and assur-
ing significance to the people OF that
portion of the Monongahela Valley.
There is no longer any doubt existing
as to the time the road will be extended
TO its northern connection. 1t will be
done this year, this summer, in fact.
II has been the intention TO extend the
road all the time, but for private and
eminently prudential reasons 1t had
been delayed until this year The time
has come for the traffic demands to
make the extension a necessity, and
forward it will go.
All the right of way matters have not
been settled between Geneva and Nor
Cantown, but for the most part they
have, and with the remainder no diff
Guilty will be encountered. The last
winter has been passed that Morgan
town will be without trains down the
river.
The extension of this line will be a
great thing for Pennsylvania, though
its main length will be in Pennsyl-
vania. 1t will be most probably part
of the system which is now building di-
rectly through the heart and undevel-
oped portion of the State.
