WE regret to note that Clarence st.
Clair is still in very precarious condi-
tion. His fever has in great measure
left him but the delirium remains.

best.

A CORRESPONDENT from near jolly
town, Pa, says that Mr.. Uriah Shri-
yer is expected home shortly with
his son whose being bitten by mad
dog near Wadestown was related in
this paper last week. The child has
almost completed the course of treat
pent at the Pasteur institute, New
York City, and it is hoped that no
further bad effects will be exper-
fenced by him from the bite. No
other persons are reported as bitten
by the dog or animals which have
since gone mad in that section.
A FAIRMoNTER was in town Satur-
day on his way home from a visit
up the mountains near Cheat View.
He had two rattle snakes in box
one of the mbeing the largest reptile
seen in town for long time. 1t had
twelve rattles and button, was over
four feet long and as thick as mans
wrist. The other was smaller hay-
ing only four rattles with the con-
ventional button. Both we're ugly
looking things and attracted great
amount of attention. Why he should
be wanting to take the snakes to
Fairmont was question which was
often asked as snakes" are no rari-
ty in that place many of the most
prominent citizens having large and
varied collections at periodic inter
walls.
SOME people are criticising the
opening of new streets out in the
outskirts of town and whooping for
the paving of Main street in the
same breath. Well it would be nice
to have Main street paved and it will
be some day but it does seem that
the more streets opened the better it
will be for the town. Nothing slim
ulate the growth of a town like hav-
ing good convenient streets and
having them nicely gs-sd1 On the
other hand nothing holds people
back from building like uncertainty
as to where the streets run and
where the grade is. A casual in
spcction of the town will show mar
vicious growth every time new
street has beed opened and the in
/ come from taxes resulting has In
every case much more than paid fol
the grading and other expenses
Main street should be looked after
but the feeders To It must not be
seale,;fed while this being done.
