SAVE money by buying your
Christmas presents at McVicker's
New Drug Store.
BORN. last Friday, unto Mr.. and
Mrs. Harry Hagans, at their home
in Chicago, daughter
ALL along the B. d o. main line
the people and papers are disposed
to kick at the new train schedule.
S. FULLER Glasseock has been ap-
pointed notary public, and has had
his bond approved by the county
court.
DIR. MAcKEY, who was recently
granted pension got, his first quar-
terly payment Monday. He gets
SIT a month.
The pensioners are now getting
their quarterly allowances and bust
ness brisked up little on account
of this considerable financial influx.
The Odd Fellows, many of them,
indicate that the new building on
the Carraco Corner which they in
tend to erect will be the finest in
town.
d. G. SIMMONS of Kingwood, and
Mrs. Hester E. Thrush, of Martins
burg, have, it is reported, eloped.
The woman leaves husband and
daughter.
FORMERLY the question was who
should be at the head of the college
class. Now there's a tendency to
mark those who are most distinguish
ed at the foot.
DURING the present session of the
county court it is not probable that
much time will be wasted in discuss
ing the feasibility of purchasing the
suspension bridge
Nor very many of the merchants
have so far signified through the
columns of this paper that there is
to be any Christmas this year. This
is the season to plant the ad..
Thirty days is the time estimated
for ballasting the railroad from here
to Point Marion after the railroad is
completed. When this is finished,
we may get change in train sched-
ule.
SOME way or another the boys from
here can't get accustomed to the way
they play foot ball at Little Wash
ington and it's queer, too, for they
have tried often enough.
The Wheeling Register now gets
out an edition early in the morning
so as to catch the train leaving there
about 80, reaching here at s:25.
1t can be said of the departure that
it does not fill the bill.
For breakfast dish, with sugar
and cream, or butter, nothing is
nicer than mush, hominy, or grits
all of which are made daily from
new selected white corn. at the Vic
tor Mills, and sold at wholesale, or
retail, cheap for cash. Try sack.
For keeping out the cold, and
building up the inner man nothing
surpasses the choice hominy, grits
and pearl meals made by the Vic
tor Mills from choice selected new
white corn, when properly cooked
and served. Cheapest food in the
market.
THERE is only one way to decide
who is the embodiment of superla.
tive quality in the playing of the
little delusive checkers; as to whom
he may be there has lately been
aroused so much discussion here.
To play is the way to settle it. Get
up tournament.
A NEW boiler, replacing one that
was burned out at the end and came
near causing an explosion some
days ago, is being placed in the
Deckers creek mills. Hauling the
mammoth steam producer from the
wharf to the mill was considerable
contract for the limited apparatus
for that kind of work to be found
hereabouts.
YALE is in the same boat as the
W. V. U. so far as foot ball is con-
cerned. Hardly had the first vic
tory been through with its celebra-
ton till defeat, rank and humiliat-
ing, turned laughter into tears.
Each won victory and each was
next beaten badly. There is an old
but applicable fable which points a
moral and would adorn these tales
Hoe and hominy! How it warns
the cookies of ones heart to think
of them these cold frosty mornings!
Every body has the hog in shape of
sausage, spare ribs, back bones, ten
derloins DC. and every one may have
the hominy, fresh made from new
selected white corn by calling at the
Victor Mills where it is turned out
daily in large quantities, cheap for
cash.
GAME is scarce. All the Thanks
giving hunters say that. This, of
course, refers only to this part of the
country. Three of the best of the
local Nimrods got but two pheasants
and as many rabbits that day. The
same day last year two-horse wag-
on was required to haul in the game
bagged by the same trio. With
others it was the same way. Poor
luck was reported by almost all
around here this year
Mr.. AND Mrs. MARoELLUs DAVIS
have removed into their new house
in the north end, corner of Spruce
and Prospect streets. The north
end is becoming more populous as
time fits merrily by, but that 5000
appropriated by council for street
improvement in that quarter contin-
ues to nestle snugly in the munich
pal treasury without much hope of
being soon disturbed. Happy APP
preparation! Sorrowing streets!
IT IS intimated from pretty good
source that there is at present being
arranged in Baltimore schedule for
a through train from Weston to
Pittsburg, to take effect soon. The
completion of the new road through |
to Uniontown by the date named
would seem to be an assured fact, as
was indicated in our item last week.
The arrangement would be to make
the trip without change of cars.
Coming from Weston to Clarksburg
over the W. Va & P. thence over the
M. r. r. R. to Fairmont, and to
Pittsburg via the F. NJ & p. 1t
would be a daisy train if it was put
