HUTcHISsoN d JACOBS want to

where on Timothy and Clover seed,
Cook stoves, Syracuse plows, White

es, and nails and barbed wire.
Hon. H. CLAY says he can lick any
newspaper man in Morgantown. 1t
is understood he referred to the edi-
tor of the Post, but if the report
should come to the ears of our fight
ing editor Clay will very likely get
into trouble.
The Sheltering arms Hospital es-
tabiished at Paint Creek, Kanawha
county, a few years ago by Bishop
Peterkin, has just received the sum
of $4,000 bequeathed to it by the
widow of the late Governor Olden,
of New Jersey. The money has been
paid over to Bishop Peterkin.
THE next lecture of the course is
to be given on the evening of Feb
Is, when DR.. Hartigan will speak
upon the subject of Evolution as a
Theory" People who have given
the theory of evolution any attention
and study will be interested in hear
ing DIR Hartigan's version, as well as
those who have not.
In THE Carraco and Lazzell divorce
suits the taking of dispositions have
been completed and the cases are
ready to be passed upon by the court.
The Watts stable case is also finish
ed as to dispositions and is ready for
the courts consideration. This last
case will entail great costs to the
losing party. DISPOSITIONS were taken
many days, and that indicates many
dollars fees.
The progress of the preparatory
operations OF moving the Laura Pick
enpangh brick house is watched
with great interest by almost every
person passing that way on Main
street. When it is moved it will be
the first brick house in Morgantown
to have been built in one place aud
lifted up bodily and set down in an
other. That fact makes every part
of the process interesting to our peo-
pie.
Those Of the members who have
quietly caDyassed the situation say
that the plan fer building to be
presented TO the Odd Fellows by the
bui ding committee and that it begin
on April lst viii be endorsed by at
least a seven eighths majority. This
plan is the one that was partially de-
scribed in the New DOMINION last
week, of which the theatre is a part.
The vote is to take place Saturday
evening.
THERE is not enough love and
Christian feeling among Christians
in general, If we would live more
devoted lives and try to make the
world better and not talk so much
about escaping hell and gaining
heaven, there would be more people
turn to the right road. 1t is harp
ing and canting and dubious faces
and underhand actions that turn
thousands of young people on the
downward track.
BRICK paving is probably prefera-
BILE to every form of highway better
ment, but if brick paving is a matter
of the dim future it then comes
around TO question of the immedi-
ate improvement of the streets Of
town. The cheapest and best way
to mend streets, making them solid
and smooth, is with furnace Stag.
There are mountains of this Stag at
Fairehance which may be had for
the cost of transportation.
The advertising fakir was among
the people last week again, but for
the first time was frozen out by the
cold, cold reception given by the.
merchants They have found out
here, as they do every place in
time, that of all the fakirs on the
Foot stool the advertising fakir is
the worst. When the legitimate pub
locations of this town fail to help a
man in business when he advertises
in them, he may as well get out Of
business. Turn not to the man with
the blotter, or the letter paper, Or
the calender, or any of those schemes
which have gone merchandising
down the Railways of time as rank
failures. 1t is a mark Of verdancy
for merchant to take stock in the
advertising lodges of the buns who
come from the city slums. He's af-
ter your old half dollar, and don't
care about you.
