The now brick school house for
the colored pupils, which is being
built near the river on the lot where
the old school house was formerly is
above the first story. 1t is to be two
stories, with four good sized rooms,
and will be completed before the
Christmas holidays.
SOME Pittsburg people here last
Saturday were surprised to learn
that the beautiful stone used in the
new Odd Fellows building is native
product, and probably some of our
own people may be surprised to know
this. All of it comes from two quar-
ries, neither Of which is more than a
half mile north of town.
PEOPLE who are finding reduc-
ton in the cost of store goods and
other neeessaries laugh at the Nc
Kinley politicians who tell them
that they have been injured by the
Democratic tariff. The shopping
woman is more powerful campaign
er than Governor Mckinley, and the
merchants advertisements discount
the Republican calamity howl.
TIE University foot ball team will
desert their own athletic grounds for
the South Morgantown field next
Saturday in the contest with the Mt.
Pleasant institute team. The Uni
versity athletic grounds are not the
best in the world, but if the addition
Of a portion of the White property is
made to them, as is contemplated,
the improvement would be vast.
THE bricklaying on the new Odd
Fellows building has been resumed
and has passed the first story. The
work was stopped for few days till
the iron work for the front should
arrive. The work on the building
has now reached stage that a good
idea of the size and room arrange
ment can be gained. There are very
few now who think that it will be
possible te complete the building by
Jan. l, next.
IT may be relied upon as positive
that no more public meetings will
be permitted on the court house
lawn. Each party has now been al
lowed to have meeting there, and
it is thought that these proved dam
aging to the young sprigs of grass
that it has been so hard to get start
ed into life If the lawn is not al.
lowed for one set of enthusiasts the
other set cannot complain and both
will find that there are other places
well suited to.outdoor meetings.
WEST VIRGINIA, Pennsylvania and
Ohio teams will compose the tri-state
base ball league that is now being
made up to play next year Not over
II or 10 teams will be in the league.
1t is quietly rumored that there is a
movement on foot to put Morgan
town team in this league, with a par
~ Of moneyed men backing the en-
terprise. The Wheeling team of this
leagne will be managed by Jack
Glasscock, the famous short stop
who played with Plttsburg this year.
Oil City and Uniontown will be
members of this league.
THERE has never been anything
quite so effectual in advertising
Morgantown as last Saturdays
Democratic meeting. The Pittsburg
and Pennsylvania people generally
who were here were impressed deeper
with seeing what we have than col
umns of descriptive matter would
do. People must sometimes see to
be convinced. Putting the matter
as business proposition purely,
last Saturdays meeting will re-
dound TO permanent good for Nor
gantown. There were people here
as prospectors that day, and they
will he here again next summer.
THERE will be no election for school
commissioners for Morg antown in
dependent district this fall and
the idea of this item is to set right
a report to the contrary. There was
mo election last spring, and for that
reason great many people thought
an election would be held this fall.
The reason there was no election in
the spring was there was not the
notice Of election given that is re

election law in time to hold the
election on the day the municipal

very well pleased with the arrange
