ABOUT OUR FRIENDS.
Personal Mention OF Prominent People
Where they are and How they are.


regain his strength now.
Miss Maud Gilmore who has been
i'll for several weeks is recovering
and in short time will be complete
ly well again.
George I'll. Brown, of Halleck, has
accepted position in the Novelty
Cos store, and we hope he may have
entire success in his new work. He
has had considerable experience as
clerk.
The friends OF Mrs. Dudley Evans
reg ret that her stay here was SO short.
They hoped for a protracted visit
from her but she was somewhat indis-
posed and felt that she would better
go home. Major Stewart accompani-
ed her as far as Pittsburg.
Mrs. M. M. Nc Vicker OF the we'll
known firm of milliners who has been
in the east buying the winter stock
of fine millinery has returned home.
The announcement OF tile opening
which is to take place may be seen in
another column. 1t will take place
on October 25th. The largest and
finest stock of the latest millinery
ever shown in town will be open for
the inspection of the ladies on that
date and cordial invitation is ex-
tended to them to call and examine
it,
The two following notes are
clipped from a Greensboro letter to
the News Standard:
Mrs Minerva Shelby, who has not
taken any nonrishment for the last
ten days, is nigh unto death.
John Keener of Morgantown, pur
chased from Benjamin Williamson,
one hundred and fifty oak trees for
steamboat timber on that part of the
Morrison farm now owned by him
near the old ssWillow Tree Inn and
has two six horse teams hauling it
to this place to be RATED for market.
GREEN goods games are old but
they catch the suckers in one way
or another.
THE present term of circuit court
is drawing to close. 1t will adjourn
probably o-morrow.
BENNY WILLIAMS still keeps the
Tavern at Fairmont in the lead. 1t
grows in popularity as it increases in
age.
IT has been proposed to stop the
sale of Sunday papers in Falrmont
and the entire population outside of
the few proposers have raised howl.
THE rain which has been holding
off for sometime looks like it might
hit us for keeps pretty soon. We
would rather have nice weather than
to have the rain.
THE depot will be prettier after the
present contemplated Improvements
are made but it will not be so con-
venient for the teamsters which will
be regretted mainly by the teams ters.
THERE will not be any lack of re-
ceptions tomorrow night. Both the
Presbyterians and the Methodists will
hold forth. ali The young people Of
town will be present at one or the 9th
er of these affairs.
WITHIN six months there will be
ten employees of the Morgantown
post-office which will then assume
proportions of small manufacturing
plant. The business here is growing
rapidly as the business of every thing
in town is growing.
No STUDENT can keep up with
events in the University and things
that are said about it over the state
without this paper. 1t will cost ten
cents week delivered to any part of
the town. Send in your name for the
best daily in the state.
FOREST fires are raging In number
Of places in the state but none have
broken out near here yet. Usually in
the fall we have extensive fires which
make things interesting in the noun
tains for the people who live near
them but this year these fires have
been strangely absent.
The Louise Brehany Company
will be here ON the 18th and their
entertainment will afford a rare
treat for our music loving people. 1t
would be well TO secure tickets far
in advance or you may be disap-
pointed. The entertainment is Civ
en- in the interest of the Episcopal
church.
AFTER we get our depot fixed up
nicely maybe Fairmont will get some
thing to take the place Of the old
shanty thatsshe has had to contend
with for so many years. Fairmont
has not been treated fairly in this re-
spect and they ought to have great
