Still Another RailrOad-On Paper

The McKeesport Times of last
Saturday contained an article which
would indicate that there is still an
other railrod aside from the ones
already mentioned which wants a
share of the business which is Ger
tain to be made by coal develop
ments in this section in the near fu
ture. This is that portion of the
Vanderbilt system known as the
Pittsburg, McKeesport & Youghio-
gheny railroad The Times article
was nearly column in length, but
the paragraph following shows the
general drift of it:
1.-THE Times met well-posted per
son to-day, who is watching the
movements of corps of surveyors
which is busy in laying out route
from the present terminus of the
Pittsburg, McKeesport q Youghio
gheny railroad at New Haven, oppo
site Connellsville, to Morgantown,
in order to compete with the Balti
more d. Ohio railroad. The exten
sion would be short and easy one
to Morgantown and will likely bs
built through rich territory thai
would tap the upper Monongahelt
and Cheat rivers and open up pro
ductive land"
Let them come; the more the bet
ter. But all these roads which are
reported to be intending to build tt
Morgantown are not coming during
this decade Some of them may.

Saturday afternoon and night was the

only attensed by few persons.
The house was well filed at night but
the absence of teachers was conspicuous

ing with Miss Sarah Glasscock, secre
tary. The other teachers present were
Mr.. Brand, of Laurel Point Mr.. Henry
of Georgetown; and Warren Markley
of Grant. And it is proper to say thai
the program was carried through very
well considering the fact that many as
signed to duty were absent.
Why the teachers do not attend and
compare opinions and keep abreast OF
public opinion we cannot say, but it is
fully manifest that there is want of in
terest displayed and it can hardly be
said that the schools are so popular OF
progressive as formerly. That our next
legislature should revise the school law
and eliminate all that is superfuous and
confine our schools to practice common
school work cannot well be denied We
want some Of the gradgrind order in

MURDER IN THE FIRST DEGREE
The Fate of Frank Morris, Who Killed
LOker Last September,

Frank Morris, aged II years, was
convicted of murder in the first de-
gree at Uniontown last Thursday
night, for killing old Bernard Loker
in Bull Skin Township in Septem-
Der. The young criminal was ap
parently unconcerned when he heard
his fate. The crime was a most di-
abolical one. Young Morris was a
friend of the Lockers and frequently
stayed with them for days at time.
For three DAYS before committing the
crime he was with them at their
home and enjoyed their hospitality.
When he got Mrs. Loker away he
left the house, ostensibly for the
purpose of going to Mt. Pleasant.
He did not go far, however, but
soon returned to where Mr.. Loker
was engaged building a wall under
his house, sneakirg behind him by
circuitous route Watching his
opportunity, when Loker raised up
be put two bullets through his
brain. He then went into the house
to search for the money for which
he committed the crime The dog
beginning to bark, Morris went out
and shot him. As he did this, Mrs.
Loker returned with her arms full of
kindling wood. Morris fired two
bullets into her and fled. Mrs. Lok-
err Is still suffering from the effects
of the wounds. The only defense
that could be made was plea Of in
sanity.

The Autopsy.

SPECIAL by telegraph.
BROCK, PENEA., Dec. l8.-A great
number of people assembled today
at the residence of Mr.. Headlee
brother of the deceased, attracted
through morbid curiosity to see aud
hear of the autopsy. The physicians
named above and also DIR. H. n
Mackey, of Morgantown, were pres
ent. The body was exhumed and
taken to the residence of Hr Hesdlet
where the examination was held
from 1:30 to 8: 80 o'clock. The ply.
sicians of course made no official
statement on the ground but the ex
animation tended to confirm tht
theory of strangulation. The lung:
we're badly congested; the right side
of the heart was filled with fluid and
dark coagulated blood.
The sad occurrence has stirred
the country side as it never was be
fore. Little else is talked about
Public sentiment is very strong but
may be greatly modified when al
the facts are brought to light.
The Prosecuting Attorney, who
was present, gives il as his opinion
that there can be no help for tn,
arrest of Mr. Musgrave as soon a;
the physicians make an official re
port. A. b. B.

Taking Options on Coal.

j. w. Hair, representing num-
Der of Pittsburg gentlemen, who are
already interested in coal and oil
in Marion and Monongalia counties
is at work taking options on lands
in these counties. The options are
made on the showing Of superficial
geological survey made a year ago,
supplemental to the geological
knowledge of the region secured by
the practical tests of coal and oil
territory already developed. The
options are to run till the 1st OF
April, when the land is to be taken
up for oil and coal at from $12 to $25
an acre. There are probably $4,000
acres of land held in this way in the
two counties named, and more is
being taken.
