SEVERAL parties have been out
fishing but as yet no very startling
fish lies have been brought in.
TRAMPs have appeared again but
not in as great numbers as usual.
When they do come good way to
welcome them is with club properly
applied
The fellow who sends threatening
letters through the mail makes him
self liable for very severe penalty.
No one but a fool and coward will
be guilty of such thing.
You don't need to get hot just go
to Smiths and get parasol and
fan; that, with the summer dress
you get there will not be the "warm-
est thing in town. but the coolest.

VISITORS have already commenced
to make trips to Cheat. That section
will be more popular than ever this
summer When bridge is6uilt over
the river there will be throng of peo-
pie summer there.
A FELLOW who persistently COM
plains OF poor business, hard times,
and asserts that this town is mo ac-
count" is generally "no account"
whatever himself and ninety-nine
times in hundred does not earn his
own living
SWEENEY and Houston are getting
out stone in the Rogers quarry in the
Rich woods and have been working
on this for couple of weeks. The
stone is to be used by them for the
curbing they are going to begin here
soon according TO their promise.
ANOTHER game between the Sta
ton and the Faculty is projected for
Commencement week and the teach
ers are determined that in case it
takes place that they shall not be
so badly out classed as they were
/ the last time they met the enemy on
the diamond.
A PICTURE of the teams composed
OF the faculty and the Experiment
Station staff has been taken and it
will be preserved by all who are so
fortunate as to secure a copy as a
memento of the greatest game that
ever happened
THE season for trailing arbutus
is nearly over. Some was brought
in on Friday but the flowers were
large and almost ready to fall off.
The perfume however was as rare
and dainty as in the earlier part Of
fhe season.
A LITTLE rain on the roads would
be great thing. The roads have
dried up very fast and they are full of
ruts of every description which makes
travelling any thing but delight.
II the rain would come it would take
down the rough places and in short
time the roads would be very smoothe.
LII seems to be understood that
considerable sum for damages to
property will have to be paid people
on Walnut street before any paving
is done there. A fill will have to be
made that will injure some of the
properties and the town is liable for
it.
The preliminary work necessary
to begin the Morgantown and King
wood railroad is being done as rap
idly as possible. Every one hopes
there will be no hitch and that it
will be vigorously prosecuted to com
pletion. 1t will be valuable thing
to large part of our county.
A LADY's Rambler was sold to-day
the frs. order taken this season for "a
woman's wheel by the Rambler agent.
This will be the most stylish wheel in
town when it gets here. This make
of wheel being extra strong and of
very easy running qualities makes it
the best adapted for the use of ladies
who ride.
CURLING Is being placed on Wal
nut street above Main. This is
from Morgan Utt's quarry and is of
fine quality. The rest of material
is expected to 60 down on the side
Of the street before long and the pa
vers will have to hurry to get here
in time to begin.
ANOTHER lodge is to be organized
here soon. This is to be branch Of
the Order of Woodmen. The town
has nearly every one of the prominent
lodges here now and the demand
would certainly seem to be nearly
equalled by the supply. The new
lodge will meet in the lodge room of
Col. Poster.
TIE work of finishing the upper
floors of the Postoffice building is well
along and will be completed soon.
The building is the solidest and best
one In town. A great deal of iron
was used in its construction. Will
Sheets and Clark Baker have been
completing the wood work in the up
per stories. 1t is very handsome.
eHE nice strips of lawn over town
N how pretty the strips of dirt be-
Tween the side walks and pavements
can be made when the effort is made
to improve them. The people who
have taken any interest in the matter
will shame the rest into move to dc
the same thing. The grass looks very
pretty and adds very much to the ap-
peafance of things.
A COLORED base ball club, just or
ganized at Clarksburg, has hit upon
an original method of gaining money
to defray necessary expenses. Severa
hundred ten cent tickets have beer
struck, each of which entitled the
holder to cast vote for the mos
popular man in town. The club will
be named after the fortune winner
Much amusement has been gotten out
of the affair.
Dow JONES of the county HON,
has been landed in Jail on charge
Of fighting with one of the other in
mates of that institution. He hal
been pleading with the sheriff to b.
allowed to go up to Marion count,
where he will make arrangements t.
get married. The latter howeve
has proven obduratc and the fon(
swain has to remain in durance vile
