TWO MEETINGS.
Morgantown is interested in
each of them.

The knights Of Pythias are Meeting at
Sistersyille and the Baptists will get
Together at Fairm0nt-EffOrtS to be
Made to get the Knights here next
year-We hope that it will be all right.
We want them and will do all we can
to get Them-Fhe Baptists are in
Good shape-Dr. Reynolds will prob.
ably Preside over the Meeting 9th
err Notes.
The twenty ninth annual session of
the Knights of Pythias of the state
begon on Tuesday at Sistersville. A
large attendance of the members of
the order was expected and those who
had the matter in charge are not dis
appointed. The representatives of the
local lodge went to the oil town with
positive instructions to do everything
that might be necessary to get the
next meeting to be held in Morgan
town.
They will extend a most cordial in
vitation to their brethren to meet
with them here the next time they
have their annual session and the in
yitation may be accepted. Several
other towns may ask for the meeting
but if the thing is properly under
stood among the delegates and they
know how nicely we will all treat
them if they will come here they will
be in for coming.
The town seconds the invitation ex-
tended by the lodge and will do all it
can to back them up in case their in
yitation is accepted. We have en-
tertained number of state meets re-
Gently and we know just how it ought
to be done and done right.
ANOTHER STATE GATHERING.
The Baptists of the state will meet
in Fairmont on Wednesday and they
will be in session all week. DR.. p B.
Reynolds of the University is presi-
dent of the body and will likely pre-
side over its deliberations. The ses-
sion will be the thirty third that has
been held in the state.
Rev NJ G. Kelley of Charleston will
preach the opening sermon. The sta
tistics prepared for the meeting show
that the church has in the state a
membership of over fifty thousand
and six hundred and fifty churches.
Fairmont has made elaborate prep
arations to entertain the visitors and
will do all it can to see that they en-
Joy themselves.

TO BE MARRIED.

ID. H. MADEIRA has gone to Norris Cross
Roads. where the Ceremony will take
place on Wednesday. Miss Protzman
the Other Principal.
B. H. MADEIRA has gone to Morris
Cross Roads where he will be mar
ried on Wednesday to Miss Bessie
Protzman. The many friends of the
groom -to-be have suspected that
there was something Of the kind on
the carpet but they have been kept
pretty well in the dark until the
time was right at hand.
The marriage will be quiet one,
there having been no invitations is
sued and but few will witness it.
The young couple will make Nor.
gantown their home.
Possibly no couple who have been
united recently are as well known
as the principals in this wedding.
The groom is member of the Ath-
ems cigar company and is very pop
ular wherever he is known and he is
known all over this section of the
state and Pennsylvania. Miss
Protzman is a daughter Of Tom
Protzman who is the best known
man in the section in which he lives.
We join with their host of friends
in extending congratulations in adj
vance for the step which they are
about to take.

BIG TIME.
Fairmont is honored to the limit
on Monday.

special train load Of nOtables stopped
there and anumber of addresses made
The whole town was there to hear
them-Tremend0u ovation to Miles
and others of the party-The stop out
of the ordinary--Lots Of delay caused
by Representative ofseyeral for
eign nations speak.
E. II. Steinman of Fairmont who
is the ticket agent up there arrived
in town on Tuesday morning. He
stated that the old town had had the
biggest time in It's history on Monday
afternoon. The occasion was the
passing of the train having on board
General Miles Of the Il. 8. Army
Senator Thurston and number of
the representatives of the foreign pow
ers who are at Washington. The
party was on its way to Omaha to
take in the Exposition which is in
progress there.
No stops were made from Washing
ton 20 Fairmont and the efforts Of
the mayor Of the town to get the
train to stop there was rewarded by
the biggest compliment that the town
has ever had paid IT,
After a number Of messages had
been sent the mayor appealed TO Miles
himself The latter asked that the
train be stopped and the officials ac-
ceeded TO the request. They agreed
to give them two minutes but it was
thirty before the special got under
way after 1T stopped and the speeches
began.
Miles was introduced by Thurston
and he made a very nice talk. He
was received with perfect ovation
and the hits that he made in the course
of his remarks were cheered to the
echo by the tremendous crowd which
had assembled at the station.
The Normal School had been dis
missed as had the public school and
the whole town turned out to see and
hear what was going on. They cheered
all the speakers TO the limit. Besides
Miles, Thurston made an address as
all the foreign representatives on the
train.
The occasion was the grandest that
Fairmont has ever had and the speech
es delivered will live long in the mem
DRY of those who heard them.
The other trains on the line had
been told to keep out of the way of
the special and any delay that they
might give 1t would not be excused
under any conditions Consequently
the delays caused by stopping the
train at Fairmont for that half hour
was very great and caused fog of
profanity to arise ali along the di-
vision.

SAME OLD THING.
Council Tells Contractor to get
a Shove on Quickly.

He Retorts That He is Going awful
Fast Now.-He Thinks That He Win
Finish ON Time, But No One Expects
Him to DO It.-Eyen il He WOuld
Get Move On He Could Not Get II
Done and the Way He lis Going
A Tangle Over the Curbing.-A Few
Orders Allowed.-No Other Business
Transacted.
Council held another one of its
paving nights on Monday night.
They took up the various aspects OF
the street paving snap and discussed
them thoroughly but they arrived at
no conclusion other than they had
already arrived at. They will hold
the contractor closely to his bar
gain and at the end of the time spec
flied they will enter suit if he has
not come up to what has been prom
ised
Mr.. Berry was present and he re
iterated his promise to get the whole
job done by the fifteenth of next
month but no one thinks for a
moment that he can possibly do so.
He could not, in case he would get a
move on, and at the rate heis going
now the claim is absurd.
Brick is being laid again on Main
street and it will no doubt go down
quite fast for day or so or until
they get to the Union Improvement
Company's Office, but after that the
same old tactics may be expected.
The contractor is not suited with
the native curbing that he has been
using and wanted the council to
give him the right to use tour car
loads OF Cleveland stone which is at
the depot. They refused to let him
put it in even at the same price as
the native stone, as they do not
think that the Cleveland stone will
stand up like the kind that has been
used SO far of the native product.
The foreign spawls off whenever
wagons touch it and is entirely toe
soft.
Berry had the stone shipped in
before he had obtained the consent
of the city fathers or had even asked
for it and he now has the four car
loads which he will have to dispose
of in some way or the charges will
be enormous.
Council did all they could to stir
HIM up again and they were met by
the same story, that he was doing
everything as rapidly as it could be
and that it would be done on time.
Nothing else was done with the
exception of allowing few minor
orders which were made due on ac-
count OF the paving and after talk
ing the matter over among them
selves the council adjourned.

out Its well.known policy of giving
the people the best possible service.

proved types; new baggage car and
new coaches, which are provided
