While in this town last week Mr..
NJ. c. Mckay, of Parkersburg, Sec
rotary of the w. Va. Worlds Fair
Commission, made US pleasant call,
and from his explanation of the work
of the Commission, we can expect to
see rare and varied exhibit of the
natural products of this State. The
West Virginia building Ga cut of
which we present in another column
is to be built entirely of West Vir-
ginia material, and will make a hand
some showing of our rocks and hard
woods. Mr.. Mckay hopes to have a
fine exhibit from Charles Town, as lie
will from other cities of the State,
and what with the Brass Works,
Glove Works, Road Machine Works,
Collar and Harness Factory, Pressed
Bark Mill, and Planning Mills, this
town can make as creditahle and at
tractive an exhibit as any town in
West Virginia. We suggest that all
the manufacturers meet and formulate
aplan for the best and most complete
formof exhibition.

sonalIy acquainted with Prof. Brooke
for number of years, and know him
to be studious and learned lawyer,
an Industrious man and just and
courteous gentleman under all cir
cumstances. Should the nomination
be conferred upon him he will bring
to the performance of the high and
exalted duties of that bench a trained
mind judicial methods of thought and
the requisite legal ability.
