TO BEGIN IMMEDIATELY.
Work on the School Building
will begin in few days.

The Contractors are ready to begin but
the material has not arrived yet
Some of the Stone has been hauled to
the Academy Lot-People are glad to
see some signs OF an intention to
build the building and hope that there
will be no further delay Only Nor
gantown People will be employed.
Work on the new school building
after months of delay is to begin in
a day or so according to the con.
tractors. They were here the other
day accompanied by Mr.. Peoples the
architect looking over the ground.
They have returned to Pittsburg and
when they left it was with the inten.
ton that Mr.. Fonner who is to have
charge of the work here would be
back to day.
He will be here constantly during
the progress Of the work. The only
man that will be employed on the
building from distance is to be the
foreman. All other workman are to
come from from Morgantown. This
will be good news to the mechanics
OF the town and will give them lots
of work during the summer season.
The work would have begun long
ago if the material had been here. It
has all been ordered for some weeks
and has been slow in getting here.
Sixty thousand feet OF Georgia pine
is somewhere on the road and will
likely be here shortly 60 go into the
school house. The stone which is
required has been delayed but one
car load has been received and is be-
ing hauled up and placed on the
ground. This is the first work to be
done. Some OF the foundation is TO
be completed and belt course is to
be laid. Stone cutting will begin
right away and the work will be
pushed as fast as it can be.
The school board are very anxious
that no further delay take place and
are chafing at that which has oc-
Cured since the contract was let
but they are not afraid but that the
work will done on time as the forfeit
is too big to permit the contractors
to do much fooling. They can de
pended upon to move as fast as they
can and to do it il possible. There
seems to be no good reason why it
should not be done on time.
The people of the district will be
glad to see the work begin and hope
that there will be no further DELAY.

Yonr Town.

Talk about it. Write about it.
Stop talking about your neighbors.
Keep your sidewalk in repair. If a
rich man starts a project, help him
sell all you can and buy all you can
at home. Don't talk the town down
to strangers. If project to improve
the town comes up don't hoot-in-
vestigate. Don't curse the town; If
you are not making money it is your
own fault. Follow the men who
have the vim and energy to go ahead.
Be courteous to strangers who come
among you so they will go away with
good impressions. II you don't like
your town enough to speak well of it,
get out and make room for better
men. Do not kick at any proposed
movements because they are not at
your door for fear that your tax will
be raised fifty cents. Your portion
OF the cost will be nothing but which
Is right.

SEVENTY-FIYE THOUSAND.
The Estate of the Late DR.. G.. B.
Morris is Appraised.

The Figures are much lower than the
real values and would bring more
money If put to forced sale--ilow
some Of the things were estimated.
Who the Board is.--They are all care.
full Men and Know what they are
doing Estate is not so large as many
thought but il is still a very c0mf0r-
table one and will remain for Il long
time as monument to the business
sagacity of the man who accumulated
1t.
The sale of the personal property OF
the late DR.. George B. Morris was
made by the executor on Saturday in
front of the court house. The differ
ent articles brought good prices and
those who had the matter in charge
are very well pleased with the way
in which it turned out The total
realized from the sale was about five
hundred dollars. This OF course was
not all the personal property of the
deceased as he had given large
amount of it away in his will The
bidding at times was very brisk and
everything sold well.
The appraisers have finished their
work on the estate OF DR.. Morris and
their report is complete. 1t shows
that the estate is worth something
more than seventy-hve thousand dol
lars. However this is very low and
mention Of some of the things will
show that it is too low. 1t is thought
by those who are in a position to know
that the estate will bring at forced
sale more than one hundred thousand
dollars. The Morgantown stone block
and lot were appraised at twenty
thousand dollars. The doctor was Of
fered thirty-five Thousand for this.
The Pittsburg property was put at
ten thousand and the California at
fifteen hundred. Other items are
correspondingly low and the whole es-
tate at cash value is worth much
more than the value put on it by the
board. But they wanted to be per-
fectly safe and there is no possibility
Of the values going below what they
said they were.
line board was composed OF Robert
r. Crisman, real estate dealer, w. II.
Bailey, ex-deputy sheriff, and John b.
Wallace, deputy sheriff. They are
all careful men who are acquainted
with values and they estimated each
item with great care before they put
their valuation on it.
The property will be improved as it
needs improvement. One of the
things which is contemplated is the
erection of ten thousand dollar
building in Pittsburg. The doctor
had already prepared his plans and
the executor will carry them out as
far as he can.
The estate will be carefully and
economically administered by George
G. Baker, who is one of the most con-
sentative and successful business men
in the community DR.. Morris made
no mistake when he placed the care
OF the estate in his hands and the way
that he has accepted the trust shows
that he is going to to the very best
possible for the estate.

sent Colonel Spillman, with the
other regimental officers, having been
mustered in last night, at once as
sumed command, and the discipline
of the camp has become great deal
more rigid than heretofore. 1t is to
be regretted that the men have TO
leave the State without uniforms, and
the officers think the Governor should
have held the regiment here till the
men were uniformed and fully equip

David Elkins, son of Senator S. b.
Elkins, arrived in camp to-day to
volunteer as private, but the mus
ter rolls having been made up it may
be that he will not be able to get in
except upon a special dispensation.
He has telegraphed his father the
difficulty about getting in, and it is
thought that the Senator will ar
range it. His brother, S. B. Elkins,
Jr., who was commissioned a Second
Lieutenant yesterday to serve as Adj
jutant in Major Ranks battalion, has
not yet arrived, and II he does not
get here in time David Elkins may
take his place.
Captain Settle has purchased two

transportation can be secured by to-
morrow evening or Tuesday, and the
