STOLE A HORSE
And Took Moonlight Gallop to Fair.
mont.

On the night that French's Sensa-
tlon show boat was here about two
weeks ago, son of Stephen Gapen
rode horse to town, hitched him in
front Of I. Pickenpaugh's store and
went to the show. When the show
was out the young man went up
street after his horse, but the horse
had vanished. Mr.. Gapen came to
town the next day supposing that be
had broken or been let loose but he
failed to find him either in town or
vicinity. A description of the horse
was telephoned to points in the
country and neighboring towns and
last Thursday he was located in
Fairmont where he had been sold to
Thos. Hough, and his SON in law,
Lawrence Fleming, by Will Walls,
better known at his home here as
Bill Wallace.
Bill was recently working at Fair
mont and it is presumed wanted to
get there so as to go to work early in
the morning, and in order not to
lose any time by waiting for train
he unhitched Gapen's horse and
mounted him and took moonlight
gallop to the mountain city. Time
was money with Willie and he could
not be bothered attending to The
steed so he proceeded to get rid of
him. He offered the animal to Frank
Reed, the horse dealer, for SIS but the
pudding was too well done and too
hot for Mr.. Reed who thought it
would burn his fingers. William
then raised the price and the gentle
men to whom he sold the horse paid
him $12. If the officers who now de-
sire to interview William come up
with him he will get long time in
which to rest so that when he wants
to go to Fairmont, a few years after
explaining the matter in court, he
can walk or take side door sleeper.
Walls has but about l day in the
week and the sun ON that day is OBJ.
scured by clouds most of the time.
Messrs. Hough and Fleming prompt
~ turned the horse over to the own
er as soon as informed that Walls
had stolen it.
LATER,-Walls was arrested
miles above town Friday night. He
was at the home of Perry Walton
and enjoying boat ride on the
placid Monongahela when the Off
GERS went after him. Mr.. Hough
was here Monday and identified
Walls as the man from whom he
bought the horse. Walls will remain
in Jail until the October term of
court unless he secures a bondsman.

TWO GREAT
INDUSTRIAL PLANTS
FOR MORGANTOWN.
Contract Signed for the Sen
eca Glass Works.
And the Work of Building for 1t

And the Work Of Building for II
Will Begin Next Monday-Fifty Resi-
dences Must Also Be Built by Noyem-
Der LIST. The Wooden Mill Almost
Ready for Operation.
Contracts have been signed be.
tween the Morgantown Building q
Investment Company and the Seneca
Glass Works of Fostoria, Ohio.
whereby Morgantown secures the To-
cation of the latter works at Nor
gshtown. This factory manufac
lures blown :tumhlers plain, etched
and cut, and employs over 800 peo-
Pile. They pay out between $4,000
and 100000 per annum in wages.
Many of the workmen are owners of
the Company stock.
The Monongahela Textile Com
pany's new Wooden Mill is nearing
completion. This company will EN-
ploy so at the start and expect to
add 200 more in the near future, it
being their intention to make under
wear and hosiery as soon as possible
after getting their blanket depart
ment well started.
These two'enterprises will require
from so to rs new houses immedi-
ately to accommodate the working
forces and others who will necessar-
lily be attracted to the place. The
Glass works alone will guarantee the
rent of 20 or 30 houses that will rent
for IS to $l2 per month.
The securing of these establish
ments will cost the Building Il In
vestment Company $4,000. In or
der to raise She amount necessary
there will be public sale of lots on
Wednesday, July 20, 1896, eommenc-
ing at 10 o'clock a. m. on the
grounds.
These lots will be sold at auction
to the highest bidder on the follow.
ing terms. Ten per cent in cash at
the time of sale, and balance in 3, 6,
8 and II months with interest. A
discount of B per cent on the pur-
chase price will be allowed to all
wishing to pay cash,
Buyers Of lots at this sale who are
subscribers to the garantee of 100
lots may purchase and pay as per
agreement signed by them, or may
at their option pay according to the
above terms.
These lots are sold with the posi-
tive assurance and guarantee of the
company that not less than $50 PEG
pie shall be employed by the above
works within one year from the day
of sale or money will be returned on
surrender. of deed. Everybody in
this county should be interested in
the building up of the town. There
is constantly increased demand for
houses in Morgantown. These works
should increase Morgantown's popu-
lation at least 1000 within the next
two or three years, and every lot
sold will be worth double the prices
at which they will now be sold. ANY
person with $3.50 to $1,000 or upward
to invest can certainly find no better,
surer and easier way to increase his
capital than to buy these lots. Re
member the day and date, Wednes.
day, July 30, 1896.
Come everybody, and help TO
boom your County town. 1t has
been demonstrated time after time
that nothing makes country SO
prosperous as having the factory be-
side the farm. 100000 to $780,.
900 year paid in labor means an
immense home market for all kinds
of produce.
Why should you not aid such en-
terprises, especially when you will
double your money in three or five
years at farthest
