THAT this town is improving faster
than any town OF its size in the coun-
try is asserted by the majority of the
visitors to the place. No one has the
slightest criticism TO make of the pro-
gress of the place and Morgantown is
rapidly adding to her standing among
the towns of its class.
LADIES who want the latest New
York styles in wraps should see

THE members and visitors in town

the short exposure and it will be ready
for use on the next big day of any
description that we have.

Ii will be welcome news to many
people to learn that the paving is TO
be pushed this fall yet as far as posi-
BILE. An order has been passed to
pave the remainder of peasants street
as soon as Front is finished, and then
finish Walnut from Main to Front.
The contractors have agreed to re-
turn in November and complete the
work These two places should be
paved this fall by all means as the ef-
feet on the completed work will be
spoiled otherwise. Walnut is one of
the most important thoroughfares and
business streets in town and TO leave
it in the mud another winter would
be great injustice to those who live
and do business on it.

tome finally quiet / to points net
higher. There was scarcely any outside
interest, while the local contingent
showed Indifference except for a dispo-
sition to hold off for the June report
due from Washington Saturday morn
ing. Local sentiment continued rather
hearish on the more or less current
belief that the cotton crop was i'll the
main "all right" Crop gossip, however,
was not free from unfavorable eX-

sections Of the belt indicating unsatis-
