The failure of Samuel Reinheim.
er, of Cameron, where he has been
conducting big general store for a
number of years, was learned with
regret by his many friends. The
assignment was made on Tuesday
J. II. Holt, of Moundsville, being
the assignee. Shortage of funds to
meet obligations coming due and the
failure to collect outstanding debts
caused the suspension. The liabili-
ties will be in the neighborhood Of
$4,000.
Miss ORR who resides in the
property in South Morgantown she
recently purchased from Miss Myr-
tie Dorsey met with very painful
accident a few days ago. Miss Orr
is having extensive repairs made on
the property and while watching
the carpenters board fell from
above striking her in the temple and
making very painful wound. An
artery was severed which caused
quite loss Of blood. She is recov-
ering nicely however under the care
of Dir. Kelly.
THREE of the prisoners, confined
in the county Jail, got hilarious last
Monday and stuffed one of the waste
pipes, leading from the Jail, full OF
rags causing the water to overflow
on to the floor. The sheriff i'm
mediately put all the prisoners in
the cages, except Musgrave, taking
this method of calming their exu-
berance. The rags were removed
with some little difficulty and the
only reminder Of the incident is
the presence Of the now, disconso-
lates in the cages.
IT is subject Of considerable re-
mark that the fire department has
not had drill this year. In fact a
gentleman remarked yesterday that
he doubted whether any of the mem
bers could tell that the apparatus
was in good working order, or wheth-
er a fire plug in the place would
work. Property owners rely very
largely upon the fircmen for protec-
ton and as the latter accepted the
trust they should show their ability
and willingness to discharge their
duties promptly
