BY the wise management of the
Board of Regents, arrangements
have been made for operating the
iron foundry in the Mechanical de-
partment of the West Virginia Uni
versity during the winter quarter.
This foundry was equipped from APP
preparations made in 1894, but this
is the first time that it has been
possible to operate it FOR purposes of
instruction in foundry practice,
moulding and casting. All second
year and more advanced students in
Mechanic Arts and Mechanical En-
gineering will have opportunity to
take this course. This shop work
will be taken under commercial con
ditions, a local foundryman having
been granted concessions by the
University to carry on his work of
manufacturing iron castings in the
Mechanical department, and in
which work the students will take
an active part.
The Shakespeare course offered by
Professor Armstrong in the Depart
ment of English at the West Virgin

consists of study of Shakespeare's
English history dramas, illustrated
with parallel readings from English
history. Professor Armstrong also
offers IA course in American poetry.

THE BAPTIST CHURCH
Completed After a Quarter Cen
fury of Effort.
An Extremely Creditable Edifice-COst
About $4,000 - Arrangements for
the Dedication December IL.

1t is said, "All things come to him
who waits. The Baptists have
waited long, if at times impatiently,
for the completion of their house of
worship. Now they are about to see
their fondest hopes realized, and see
the church, which was begun in '9I,
completed. A new church has been
talked of for a quarter century.
No active steps were taken until
Rev, Ross Ward was called as pas
tor of the church in Oct. 1891. The
old church was situated on Long
Alley, and there was a great deal of
opposition to building elsewhere.
Some were true to the not widely
known custom among Baptists, viz:
If there is spot not fit for anything
else, a spot so steep and slippery
that nothing but court plaster will
stick to it, that spot must be chosen
for Baptist church.
This opposition was finally over
come, and lot on Main street was
secured for the new church.
Architect Fulton prepared and
submitted plan which was accepted
and the contract for the building
was let to Wood d Zearley.
Work progressed rapidly for a
while, and it seemed the church
would soon be completed. But fail
ure to get some money that had been
promised compelled them to stop
the work, and it was not until the
summer of the present year that the
work was resumed.
Rev. j. l.. McCutcheon was called
to the pastorate of the church June
lst, and Immediately took steps
toward the completion of the build
ing The work was put in the hands
Of Mr.. Fields, of Smithfeld. He and
number of competent workmen have
finished the carpenter work, and the
church is now being frescoed.
The new church has seating ca
pacity of about six hundred. 1t will
be seated with pews instead of chairs
as was first intended.
Besides the audience and Sunday
School room, there are three class
room on the first floor. On the second
floor is the pastors study and a
large room to be used for dining
room, or anything for which the
church may choose to use it.
The church when completed, will
have cost $4,000. The Baptists
hope to dedicate the church Dec. u
DIR. w. A. Stanton, pastor of the
Shady Avenue Baptist church, of
Pittsburg, will preach the dedicate
ry sermon. Rev. w. E. Powell of
Parkersburg, will be present and
take part in the exercises. There
will be three services during the day,
morning, afternoon and evening.
The Baptists have been without a
house of worship for some time, and
we think the whole town will re-
joice with them on this day

MARTINsBURG, w. Va, Nov. g.
(The World In spite of the en-
tertainment at the other house last
night Harris Comedy Co. played to
large audience in the new Opera
House. The program was entirely
different from the night before and
the audience which was composed
of people who knew how to appreci-
ate a good show was highly pleased.
1t was kept In laughter from begin
ming to end. The honorable way in
which the company have acted by
making correct statements in regard
to their show and giving only
clean, refined high class comedy has
won for it many friends. 1t is be
yond doubt the best comedy com
pany that has been in Martinsbnrg
this season and too much praise
can not be given It, 1t is one Of the
few shows that believe in doing all
things well. Each player is worthy
of special mention and there is not
a poor actor or a weak point in the
whole performance.
The management deserves credit
for the excellent order which was
maintained without an effort. The
company will make their last APP
pearance tonight in triple bill
giving three comedies which have
never before been played here. This
is their strongest program and will
not be cut. If you are lover OF
good comedy and good specialties
they can not fail to please you. At
Opera House, Wednesday, Dec. |.

THE DEBOLT FUND
Is still Growing But Little Timescan
be spent in soliciting Contributions
A Nurse Secured.

The Debolt fund is growing under
the efforts of j. L. Protzman. He
has only small portion of his time
to devote to it but is doing voc
man service along that line. He
certainly deserves great credit for
his interest in the matter.
Things are practically unchanged
in the staicken household. Harry
is in a critical condition and George
improves very little, if at all. The
whole care and nursing of the two
men has heretofore fallen on Mrs.
Harry Debolt who is unable to meet
the demands on her. She is in a
delicate condition and should not be
allowed to exert herself as she has
been doing.
However a trained nurse has been
secured and the sick will be given
this much needed attention. This
will require liberal sum of money
but there is no reason to believe
that the people of Morgantown will
fail to raise the necessary amount
Remember to give quickly so that
whatever is needed may be done.
The fund now stands as follows

MONEY TALKS.

After a long silence and probably
due consideration, Governor Nc
Laurin on Monday night announced
to the Associated Press that he had
selected the Hon. IL ID. Money to fill
out the vacancy in the L. 5. Senate
created by the death Ex-senator George.
While the appointment will naturally
create some disappointment in the
breasts of aspirants for The honor, and
in the ranks OF their personal follow
crs. it will be received with public
satisfaction generally. Indeed, 1t IS
probable that the appointment Of Mr..
Money will come nearer than that Of
any other man would have done to
meet with popular favor.
1t will be remembered that Mr..
Money was elected by the Legislature
for HE regular term beginniugin 1899.
