Reports from various points
throughout the country areunani-
Gus in the verdict that Sunday was
the hottest day, so far, during the
year, if not for many years. Many
prostrations resulted which in a
number of cases proved fatal. In
New York City alone, fifty one deaths
occurred on Sunday.
In West Virginia the average tenn
perature was about 95 degrees. A
number of prostrations have been re-
ported in the state The soldier
boys at Camp Holley have been hav-
ing the hardest time of it. A num-
Der of them were over come by the
heat on Saturday and Sunday and
had to be taken to the hospital
Several of them fell in their tracks
during drill, among them two or
three officers. Eighty-five cases
were reported in the hospital up to
Sunday evening.
Although the heat has been very
intense here, we have no special rea-
son to complain as not single case
of prostration so far has occurred in
Morgantown or vicinity. At various
places in and about Morgantown the
mercury has registered from SO to

Capt. Farrow will Move From Morgan
town.

In recent interview Capt. Milton
Farrow states that he is thinking of
moving his gun factory from Nor
gantown. The Captain has several
reasons for taking the step First:
he will soon have to vacate the
building he occupies at present, and
is unable to find another building
available, that will suit his pur-
poses. In the second place he can
not command the capital to make
the business the success that it
would undoubtedly be if it could be
worked ON large scale, and thus
far business men of Morgantown
have failed to take sufficient inter
est in the enterprise to induce them
to provide capital for its develop
ment. The Captain says that there
is no better field for investment than
the gun and cartridge business.
OF the few firms that control it
to-day, most of them have become
millionaires and the others are rap
idly becoming such. But it requires
capital to begin with, which once in
vested will undoubtedly yield large
returns. Capt. Farrow has not fl
nally decided where he will locate
but will most likely go to Washing
ton, ID. c., where he thinks he will
find a good field for the bicycle bus
mess in which he has lately engaged
in connection with the manufacture
of his rifle.
The citizens of Morgantown will
be sorry to loose the Captain and
his estimable family.

Has Buried Nearly Half Thousand
People.

1t will doubtless be of interest to
those who have not thought of it, to
know the number Of graves that
have been dug in Oak Grove Gene
terry in the last eighteen or twenty
years.
Robert Odbert, who is the sexton
of the cemetery, began digging
graves there in 1878. During that
time howeyer,a number of other per
sons have been also employed SEGA
sionally to do that work, and the ex-
act number can be given only as
far as his own work is concerned
Mr.. Odbert says that since 1878 he
alone has dug in Oak Grove 443
graves. OF this number, however,
III have been removals from the two
old grave yards in town, leaving 1922
burials.
If the exact number of graves that
have been dug by other persons was
known, the sum would doubtless
reach 500 or an average of more than
twenty-five per year during that
time

Mr., Stewart Saws Not.

A few days ago an item went the
rounds of the Republican papers OF
the state saying that Mr. Edgar
Stewart who graduated from the law
department Of the University last
June had left the Democratic party
and had formed Mckinley club in
Martinsburg. Mr. Stewart says this
is lie out of the whole cloth, that
he is a Democrat and could never
make up his mind to be anything
else and that he intends to vote the
ticket straight. The Republican
papers in their desperation sieze at
straws to bolster up their rapidly
waning and lost cause and in this
case made scape goat of Mr. Stew
art. Mr.. G. w. johnson who is
also graduate of the University
and a resident of Martinsburg was
in town yesterday and told the New
DOMINION there was not so far as
known single Democrat in the
eastern pan handle who would not
vote the Democratic ticket, and fur
Their that number of solid men who
had always been Republicans have
come out openly for free silver and
voted in the Democratic primary,
first pledging themselves publicly to
vote for Bryan land Sewall. The
above are the facts in the case.
