ART SCHOOL OPEN 70 VISITORS.
A Large Number OF People See the
Art Exhibit at the University to-day.

The chief thing Of interest at the
University to-day has been the exhibit
of the art school. This is the second
annual exhibit given by this depart
ment and the work shown is in every
way creditable to the school and to
its head, Mrs. Hubbard Quite a
large number Of people visited the
studio during the day, and on all
sides complimentary remarks were
made concerning the exhibit. Sever
al still life students were especially
complimented by the visitors.
That the department is success
and fills a necessary place in the Uni
versity is evident. 1t brings students
to our own Institution who would
otherwise 90 out Of the state for in
struction in no way superior to that
provided here. The school is espec-
tally in keeping with the admission of
women to the University. Since we
have coeducation institution, no
effort should be left unmade to pro-
vide instruction along the same lines
and Of the same quality as that fur
nished in the best women's colleges.

TENANT s1NlENoED.
Two Hundred Dollars and Eight
Months in Jail--James Giles on Trial
Arson and Malicious Mischief
Charged.

Sentence was imposed on Roscoe
Tenant on Monday afternoon. He
will pay fine Of two hundred dollars
and serve eight months in jail making
with the six that he has already had
fourteen months of continent and
two hundred dollars out of pocket for
the fight which he had with Moore
when the latter was killed.
The verdict of the jury made the
offence merely misdemeanor and
took it out Of the felony class. The
imprisonment was in the discretion of
the Judge as was also the amount of
the fine
In the case of James Giles charged
with arson the state finished its testi-
mony this morning and the defense is
now examining its witnesses. This
is not expected to last very long and
the pleading will begin this after
noon. An hour will be given to each
side for this and the case will be in
the hands OF the jury tomorrow
morning.
1t is charged that Giles burnt a
number Of haystaeks besides injuring
number of fruit trees which were
the property of his son-in-law because
the old man did not approve Of the
marriage. At the same time he as
saulted his daughter and served two
years in the penitentiary for attempt
ed murder.
After the disposal OF this case there
are few more of Importance to come
up at the present term of court and
the term is not expected to be very
interesting,

How to Advertise n City.

The way to advertise town or
city is to build up the local press.
The world to day measures the sta
tus and enterprise of every city and
town by the appearance of its news
papers. The columns of the princi-
pal papers in any city are supposed
to reflect the business and enters
prise Of the place as uuerringly as
the mirror reflects the human face.
The value, therefore, of having every
line of business and every enterprise
represented in the principal papers
is readily apparent, and the impor-
lance of building up your home pa
per SO that it may show up as we'll
as any papers in your state or with
in the sphere Of its influence is equal

A CubA.l Railway.

When one wishes to leave Havana
by rail to see something Of the real
Cuba-say, to take trip to Pinar
del Rio or to Cienfnegos-he must
get up very early. The through
trains leave at six o'clock in the
morning. | asked the chief engineer
of the railroad to Pinar del Rio why
so early a start was made for a town
only 100 miles away, and he said it
was SO as to get back the same day.
The American traveller is not on
~ likely to grumble when he is com
PEELED to hurry to the station in the
thick gloom of the early morning,
but when he reaches the station and
finds that he must pay about five
cents mile in gold, and from seven
to eight cents a mile in Spanish sill
yer, to ride in the back breaking
cars known as first-class carriages,
and that for an ordinary trunk he
must pay about half fare, he is in
clined to scoff at the primitive mode
of travel, and to long for the luxury
of even stage-coach journeying on a
Western mountain road The amaz-
ing amount of computation by the
ticket-agent before he sells ticket,
the smoky lamps, the three preimi-
nary tootings by the engine before
the train starts. the final ringing of
a bell by the baggage master as a
signal that the train really is going,
the crowded condition of the aisles,
choked with luggage for which the
passengers do not care to pay toll,
and every man in the train, from the
conductor down to the barefooted
brakemen, smoking tobacco of vary
ing degrees Of excellence-all this
is likely to weary the American
traveller used to the luxury of Pull
man cars. A few hard jolts soon af-
ter the train leaves the station bring
up to the imagination the prospect
of a miserable trip, and one is in
clined at the very outset to rail at
the crudities Of travel by cars in
the island of Cuba. Franklin Mat

Base Ball.

Two interesting games of ball will
be played on the University grounds
tomorrow and Thursday between
the University team and Waynes-
burg College.
Manager Sweeney is thinking of
keeping his team here for week or
two after com mencement to play
some additional games. The pur-
pose of this is to try to pay off the
Indebtedness of the team. Several
of the games played this season
were not successful financially, and
the result has been a deficit in the
teams treasury at the close of the
school year No one is to blame for
this, it was caused by circumstance
over which no one had control.
We hope Manager Sweeney will be
successful in his attempt to pay out.

THE ROAD RACE.
Start at Six thirty Finish Between
Seven and Seven Twenty What time
is Expected to be Made.

The road race this evening will
start promptly at six thirty from the
street in front of the court house.
There will be great many starters
and they will jump into the race from
the very start. The course has been
given several times. The prize offer
ed by Elmer Jacobs is to be seen in
Miller's window 1t is box of fine
cigars.
Those who want to see the finish of
the race should be in front of the
Court house or some where on Main
street between seven and seven TWEEN
ty. The winner will hardly finish in
less than forty minutes and there are
those who think that this time will
not be made. Others claim that it
can be made in much less time and
they will be interested spectators Of
the race.
The street and hill leading into
town will be cleared of all teams and
other distractions before the riders
are expected SO that no one need ex-
pect to get hurt on the final stages of
the race. There is expected to be a
very hot time among the riders from
Easton into town.

Arnettsville.

ARSETrsyILLE, June 1.-THE Sunday
School Convention at this place
Saturday afternoon, and night was
largely attended and an interesting
time is reported.
The auction was well attended, satur-
day night.
The roads are in good condition and
people are using them freely.
Rev Morgan filled Rev. Shorden's APP
pontment at the Temple yesterday and
preached an able sermon.
Two changes of location have been
made in this section that have not vet
been noted. Will s. Snider moved to
the farm purchased of Thos. +. Walton
and Mr.. Walton moved to a house on
A.. Ralphsnider's farm.
Wheat is now ready for harvest and
the crop looks pretty fine
Vim. Burnett arrived in this vicinity
last week. He will do the plastering
ON the new house of A. n Michael now
nearing completion.
Lieut.. Il. Il. Stewart was expected
home last week but message on Fri
day said he could not come, and his
people are anxious TO hear the reason
why he was detained.
An item appeared in the New DOMINION
last week saying that you would soon
hese free mail delivery in your town.
How about free delivery of country
mails Don't we need it as badly as the
towns Think OF it, plentysof our far
mers have to go or miles to get their
mail and they can't spare the time and
cut their filth twice year or make
money to pay their taxes.
We beg to state for the information of
our correspondent that nothing was
said about free delivery in Morgantown,
but there was an article on rural free
delivery which means free delivery to
the farmers only. In Morgantown we
can not hope for free delivery until our
postotfice receipts increase some thou
sands of dollars per annum. The notice
to which reference is made means that
Morgantown will be one of the points
from which delivery will be made but
no one in Morgantown will have his
mail delivered free. So far as anv one
can see now every resident of Morgan
town will have to 60 to the office and
get his mail for some time yet but far
mers in this vicinity will have theirs
taken to their door.
Mrs. Dora CLAYTON, OF Gilmer county,
is now at her fathers Mr. ID, NJ Afnett,
Of Stewards Run.
Our population was increased Satur-
day evening by the arrival of son at

Lectures, and his many friends will be
glad to have him home again.

A FINE RECORD.
Miss Lucy Wood Leads the Senior Class
in Class Standing.

The grades of the members Of the
senior class have been given to them
and the best grades made for the four
years were made by Miss Lucy Wood
who is the only lady member of the
senior class. She however will not be
able to take the prize offered by Gov
ernor Atkinson for the best all round
student as the rules prohibit this be
ing done.
They are framed so that woman
cannot take the prize although she
may have out stripped her men com
petitors in the race for the distinc-
tion. Miss Wood is an exceptionally
bright young woman and being IA resi-
dent of this place the town has every
reason to be proud of the record that
she has made.

ANOTHER NEW STEAMER.
1T will be Built for the Pittsbul e,
Brownsville and Geneva Packet Com
pany.

Another new sidewheel passenger
steamer is to grace the waters of the
Monongahela river. 1t will be built
by the Pittsburg, Brownsville and
Geneva Packet Company says the
Chronicle Telegraph. 1t will ply be-
tween Pittsburg and Morgantown and
will be completed in time for next
summers trade. Capt. NJ. a. Cox,
commander of the Adam Jacobs, and
director Of the company, said to-
day that the boat would have all of
the modern Improvements and would
be similar in construction to the /. c..
Woodward. No name has been sug-
gested for the boat, but Capt. Cox
says that he is in favor of naming it
John L. Dawson, after well known
steanboatman in his day and father
in-law of Charles Speer, OF the First
National Bank of Pittsburg.
In speaking about the improve
ments to his line Capt, Cox said: sit
has been decided to build another
boat, but it is yet too early togo into
details. We now have three boats
dUu are dUie 10 take Care Ol dill Ol tile
business offered The new boat will
be built with view of catering to
the passenger trade. At present there
is being finished a new wharf boat / Is
feet loag and AZ feet wide, which will
be the equal Of anything at Pittsburg
or elsewhere. We should have had
this style Of wharfboat several years
ago. | cannot say that the business
activity in the Monongahela valley is
increasing our business. Materials
are higher and wages are also, but we
are doing our share OF the business in
spite Of the fact that freight rates
have not advanced. That is one of
the puzzlers Of the business activity.
The James G. Blaine has been laid up
for repairs and as soon as Lock No.
is closed for repairs, we will have to
operate two boats between there and
Pittsburg and one above the lock,
transferring freight and passengers at
Lock No. g.
