the small chancery causes set for
hearing having been disposed of
T. PIcKENpAUaH has probably the

in the county. He owns 81, young
and old.
A NUMBER of local teamsters have
good contracts for delivering pipe
along route of the new line. We
hope it will be profitable for. them
all.
THERE is y great deal of teaming
done around here now, hauling the
oil pipe along the new line being
laid. Both town and country teams
are employed.
Our generous friend, e. w. Clark
will accept our thanks for the pref
test boquet of the season left at this

always glad to give pleasure to
others.
BECAUSE you use gas is no reason
you should not examine your chin
neys and all connections to insure

A POINT MARION correspondent is
away ahead Of anybody else in an
announcement that when the Cheat
river bridge is completed there will
be three regular trains each way
through that town daily.
The rear extension to the expert
ment station building is almost com
pleted. The station started with the
old Armory building, and with addi-
tions in frontal the sides and in the
rear it has become quite commo-
dious structure.
SEVERAL children in town have the
scarlet fever, though in majority of
cases the attacks are light. So far
there has been but one death result
ing from it. At present there are no
cases that are considered in any wise
dangerous.
THE boy with the Flobert rifle is
with US, and he is terror in the
land. He is getting to be great
many and he should either be care
full or muzzled, it would be difficult
to tell which. Big sores from little
bullets grow sometimes.
No BUSINESS man says he can't
afford to patronize the local paper.
He might as well say he can't afford
to do business The newspaper is a
joint stock affair, and every man who
has any pride in his town and his
county will help hold up the hands
of the man who is trying to run
live local paper.
New YORK politics are in very
much perturbed state. There is a
tremendous pressure being brought
to encompass the defeat of Judge
Maynard on the part of the World,
and Democrats of that sort, while
the Republicans are at odds at sew
eral points. All in all the canvass
is growing decidedly hot
UP AT Fairmont steps are being
taken to organize a military com
pany to join the First Regiment
They would organize one here again
if there were no fine collection ac-
compartment consequent to absence
from drill. This feature effectively
squelched the martial spirit as it
was found in. Morgantown.
THERE is young lady in Wash
ington county with a sweetheart
whose parents gave her a horse to
quit him. She quit him and got the
horse. After awhile the parents took
liking to the young man, and gave
her another horse to reinstate him.
She did so, and now has two horses.
The result is they will have good
team to start with.
The cellar steps on the Walnut
street side of Miller's store, which
were formerly fixed at convenient
angle for purposes of rest, and which
for years past had been popular with
many people as place to sit and

and there is not nearly so much loaf
ing right there any more.
The traffic managers of the B. go.

for their new time
schedules which are to go into effect

extended from here to Point Marion
at that time. So far it has been on
ly rumor.
If the following is true it will save
a good deal of expense to family
who burn oil for lights. 1t is worth
trying; When you buy lamp chin
ney, place it in vessel of water, put
the vessel on the stove, let the water
boil, then remove the vessel from
the stove and allow the water to be-
come cold. Take out your lamp
chimney, and you will have no trou
BILE about its cracking when you use
it.
THIS is glorious weather and the
grass and wheat are growing as Wig
or0usly as though it was June. The |
farmers who thought they would have
to pillow up their pasture fields before
they would again yield grass were
greatly mistaken, as our hill tops
never looked greener and fall pasture
was never better. Certainly Monon-
gala countians should prepare for |
glorious Thanksgiving notwithstand-
ing the recent drouth.
The superstructure for the rail
road bridge across Cheat river NAV
be expected at any time now. 1t is
understood that the contractors
have notified the men who are to do
the erecting work to be in readiness

Pittsburg.
