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.
Col. THOMPSON and family have
moved from Uniontown to this place
and will reside here In the future.
There is no place like the old home.
The meetings OF the w. G. r. o..
are most interesting to a number Of
the ladies of town and they attract a
great many Of them on the occasion
Of every meeting.
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 transfers.
DENNIS CLARK is out of jail after
an Incarceration of some length. He
does not usually break out OF the bas-
tile at this season OF the year and may
be expected to be an applicant for adj
mission again before very long.
THE activity in the southern coal
fields OF Fayette county near our
northern border is growing greater
every day. The development is COM
ing closer to US and before MANY years
we will be sharing directly in it's ben
eflts.
WITHIN six months there will be
ten employees Of the Morgantown
post-office which will then assume
proportions of a small manufacturing
plant. The business here is growing
rapidly as the business Of everything
In town is growing.
MoRaANTowN has lots OF switches
but she is badly crowded for lack of
the proper amount of this very neces-
sary adjunct to growing town.
More is being put in but even it will
not be enough to accommodate the
growing demands of the traffic.
A BUSINESS man must make the ac-
auaintance Of his people and then
talk to them through his advertise
ments as though face to face. He
must be frank and earnest and per-
sistent. With these characteristics
it is almost impossible to fail.
THE only matter that will prevent
the completion Of the paving ON the
three gaps yet in town will be the in
ability OF the brick works to supply
brick. They are crowded with orders
having as many as million in one
order. Home enterprise should be
taken care Of first, however.
THE sidewalk In front Of the Epis-
copal Hall is being lowered to con-
form with the curbing. This is being
done in many places over town and it
should be done everywhere. 1t will
never be easier to do than right now
and people should not allow it to go
very long without attending it.
AFTER we get our depot fixed up
nicely maybe Fairmont will get some
thing to take the place of the old
shanty that,she 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
deal when things do begin to come
their way.
The telephone poles are not all
moved and some of them have not
yet been painted as required by the
ordinance The electric light poles
are also great violators of this local
law. They should be looked after
and made to be put in right No
greater eyesore exists than lot OF
bad looking poles over town.
The side walk on the North side Of
Wiley street from the Episcopal Hall
past the lots owned by Prof. Berkeley
and w. K. Glasscock and in front of
]. q. McVicker's residence is being
taken up and relaid so as to conform
with the curbing. If the progress on
this street continues a short time
longer it will be the prettiest street
in town.
IT is rumored that change is to
take place in the B. and o. schedule
on next Sunday but this is evident
ly mistake. The officials at the
depot know nothing of it and it is the
policy to change in November. What
changes of interest to people here
that will be made then have not yet
been developed but they will be few
in number.
HUNTERS should remember that
the killing, wounding or trapping of
any bird of song, catbird, robin,
woodpecker, bluebird, yellowbird,
or any other bird not a game bird
nor an English sparrow, is indicta-
BILE as criminal offense, subject to
costs of prosecution and a fine of
not more than $40 nor more than
$50, and to be imprisoned.
EVERYONE will be glad to hear that
Ewing Davis is far on the road to
recovery. The attack of fever with
which he has been suffering has left
him and he is now building up. His
heart is the disturbing factor in this
operation being very weak but the
indications are for the best and it is
probably only matter of time until
he shall be entirely well again.
The victim of the buncoers is re-
ceiving very few expressions Of sym
pathy and it is justly regarded as a
very well merited lesson. He lost
his money on very ancient and
musty game. In a thousand years
perhaps everyone will quit biting
on the chestnut but by that time the
bunco men will have another as
transparent fraud figured out.
CARDS are out announcing the
marriage of Mr.. John Wallace, of
the Wheeling Intelligencer, and Miss
Olive Doane Dunlap, of West Alex
ander. II will take place on Octo-
Der Goth and the young couple will be
at home after November 10th, at
Wheeling. Mr.. Wallace will be re-
membered by many people as very
popular student here few years
ago. They unite with us in extend
ing congratulations.
The farmers will soon have an
advantage that we will not get for
4 six months more. They will be
much more up to date in that par
ticular than the people in town
