POSTPONED.
Methodists will not take up the
building matter for twelve
months.

Division OF Sentiment as to lots aud
other Misunderstanding on the Sub.
ject held ON Tuesday night Resola-
lions adopted formerly in-
curIe ed will be Paid off first-Ref.
Leech thinks that This is the best
plan.
The meeting Of the church officers
Of the NJ r. church; last evening
was very largely attended. Two
questions were discussed and de-
cided. The first was Ought we to
build d new church now z" The sec
md was IF we build now where is
the best lot aud what is it's price,
Three different lots were recon-
mended by their respective frieuds,
and there was no harmony of opin-
ion as to the best location A mum
Der of persons thought that boom
prices were Gu these locations and
that these sites would not command
the prices asked for them for Years
to come. Some thought that the
pastors proposition was wise to pay
81 400 OF old debts before any new
financial burden is incurred. The
entire organization became united
in this view before adjournment.
BY unanimous vote the follow
ing resolutions, offered by different
men, one after another were adopted,
after full discussion. Resolved,
that as we have 81 400 Of old lndebt-
edness to pay and cannot easily
agree as to the choice of new loca
ton for the proposed new church,
we regard it as wise to adjourn the
further discussion of the subject
twelve months" Resolved. that we
will at once ndeavor to pay the old
debts.
Resolved That the pastor, AT a
suitable time, he requested to pub
!icly secure "a special sinking fund
subscription, payable by individuals
at definite sum per week, for SIX
months to pay off the notes in bank
representing deficits in former an
nual current expense accounts; and
when these are paid he be requested
to put into operation u similar plan
to pay the nortage on the new par
sonage lot, which will free this
church from its present Indebtedness
Resolved: THAT as some repairs are
needed to put our present church in
a good condition until new edifice
shall be erected, therefore commit
tee of five shall be appointed to re
port to the board what repairs are
absolutely necessary at the present
time Prof. w. p. Wiley, DR.. l.. )
Brock Will Coombs, Prof. w. ;
Aldrich and George c. Baker were
appointed to constitute said com
mittee.
DR.. Leech says he heartily con
ours in all that was done. The
growth of the church and school is
steady and quiet. Crowded as are
the audiences and school frequently
the first duty is to pay off all exist
ing debts He had no fears as to
the availability. at fair price, of a
suitable lot when the hour strikes to
build more elegant and spacious
structure. No location can be found
to day on which the congregation
can ante, with enthusiasm, at the
price asked for the property. With
in year or two he believes there
will be more harmony as to loca-
ton 1t will take $4,000, at the
least, for the lot and building. About
81 900 is available. An additional
$4,000 is necessary to carry the en-
terprise to success

FIXTURE of the Bicycle.

1t is agreed by all bicycle manufac-
turers that the 1899 models represent
the perfect wheel, and that in the fu.
ture the silent steed will be practical
ly what 1t is to-day. improvement
seems to be Impossible, as the bicycle
accomplishes everything that is re-
quired of it. Precisely the same
thing is true of Hostetters Stomach
Bitters. 1t represents the limit Of
science in overcoming disease, and it
is impossible to made better medi-
cine for the stomach, kidneys, liver or
blood. A few doses of the bitters will
start weak nervous and bloodless peo-
pie on the road to strength. A regu-
lar course Of treatment will bring
back the pink to the cheeks and spar
kle to the eye. Sleep will come nat
urally, and it will be refreshing and
healthful. Dyspepsia, Indigestion
and constipation will be completely
banished, and the blessings of true
health bestowed. Never take a sub
stitute for this perfect remedy.

SOME BASE BALL.
Notes on the National game as
Practiced here.


No Game on Friday or Saturday pitts
burg College and Seneca both Can
cel-University Of Virginia wants a
Chance TO get Even-Pratt will not
Re-enter School-fias Job in Par
kersburg-Other Notes by the way.
There was no ball game at the Uni
verslty on Friday as Pittsburg College
a few days ago cancelled the date they
had with the local boys. The reason
for the cancellation is hard 10 see un-
less it is due to the fate that overlook
the w. U. p. when they were here,
Pittsburg College ordinarily has a
very fine team and a warm contest
was expected. OF course everyone is
disappointed in not getting to see il.
p. c. however Is not as good this year
as usual A few days ago they were
beaten by the second team by good
score. They may come here later in
the season.
Seneca was also compelled to cancel
Saturdays game as the men who play
on their team could not get off their
work. They will be able to play on
any Saturday afternoon after the first
of next month and some good argu-
ments may be expected between the
two teams then. The Seneca boys
have been getting down to hard prac.
tice every evening and they will have
a good team before the season Is over.
Pratt the catcher for the Uniyer-
sity team will not return to school as
expected. He had promised to come
and was waiting for the final arrang-
ments to be made when he received a
good offer from wholesale house in
Parkersbuig 70 go on the road. OF
course he accepted 1T and is now a
drummer. Everyone is sorry that he
wont be here for he was one OF the
best amateur catchers in the country.
University of Virginia wants game
and has offered the manager the fourth
of May. This is the date scheduled
with University of Maryland but the
latter may be turned down and Vir-
ginia taken on. The latter are con-
fident that they can win as they are
humping every VuibS ohVy nave stiuoh
so far but they may get their heads
as they did last year at
The boys are very much elated over
the fence matter and the decision Of
the regents to have it built. 1t will
be eight feet high which is plenty
high to keep the rubber neeks and
from seeing the games free.
The practice has been for all the sore
heads In town to collect on the out
side watch the game, root against the
home team and then run them down
after the game was over. This will
be stopped hereafter

Advertising Always PAYS.

Advertising is an indication Of
prosperity; yet too many merchants
seem to believe that without favor
able trade conditions and prosperity
represented by busy mills, plenty OF
money and numerous sales advertis-
ing does not pay. They appear to
70 get that from sheer necessity PEG
pie must be always buying some
thing, whether times be good or fl
dull Being, therefore,
compelled to buy, the next question
with the purchaser is where to buy.
Naturally the merchants who are
not chary in the use of the advertis
ing columns Of good newspaper
will get their patronage, 1t pays to
advertise constantly; the mere pub
LEGATION Of an intermittent announce
ment is an Improbable practice

triet Wanted on the Petitions 1t is
thought that there will be Little
Trouble in Getting Them-County
Court WI then have to Act.
Petitions concerning the bonds foi
the railroad proposed To be built up
Deckers creek are being circulated.
These are being signed by great
many people of the district through
which it is proposed to construct the
road.
These petitions will be laid before
the county court when the required
three fifth Of the voters of the district
have signed them. The court at the
special session some time ago refused
to submit the proposition on the re-
quest of three hundred of the voters
because they were not three fifths
majority of the voters of the district.
This action was very unexpected to
the people who had the matter In
charge and TO all Others as 1t was gen.
orally thought that If the people
wanted to vote on the plan they
had perfect right to do so. The
action of the court In putting the
question to vote did not bind them
to any thing and did not even endorse
the plan.
The petitions set forth that the vot-
ers of this district want chance as
soon as practicable to vote on a prop
osition to give forty-five thousand
dollars toward the construction of the
Kingwood and Morgantown railroad.
This is to be paid for at the rate OF
forty-five hundred dollars mile and
not to be paid until each mile is con-
stlucted and under operation. All of
the money voted is to be expended in
this district.
In return for the bonds the rail-
road company is to give forty five
thousand dollars worth OF first pre-
ferred per cent dividend stock of the
proposed road. The bonds are to bear
interest at five per cent and they are
to be exchanged for the stock at par
AS soon as the required number of
signers are secured the petitions will
be laid before the county court and
they will then have no excuse for not
taking ction on the matter.

a GO0D MOVEMENT.
Unfortunately, the Women Pay Little
attention TO IL.

ettehtiOi 10 IL.
The Audubon Society, of New York
is making strong fight for the pres
eryation of the song birds, and to
abolish the fashion Of wearing birds
and birds feathers on feminine head
gear. To this end the members have
issued stirring appeal to all women
to join the movement by refusing to
use these decorations to obtain which
millions of birds are annually slaugh-
tered.
The movement is worthy of all re-
speet and support, but it is almost
wholly dependent on the women for
success as it is useless to attempt to
stop the sale of birds for decorative
purposes as long as there is a profit
able market for the business.

LICENSE GRANTED.
Councilman Hall sees the thing Differ
emily and he Votes to Grant permits
sion to Sell Booze in FairmOnt.

Fairmont will not be dry after ALL
The council has concluded that it will
be best to allow booze to be dispensed
and they voted to grant license at the
meeting held on Tuesday night.
The change in sentiment was due to
the change in the attitude of council
man Hall who voted against the ques-
ton last time. This time he failed to
vote at all and the matter was carried
by vote of five to four. The Mayor
did not have to vote and he does not
have to take the responsibility for
the step.
The change has been hailed with
delight by the thirsty Fairmonters
who had seen but very little prospect
of happiness in dry city although
part Of the population was dead bent
On having it that way. The present
licenses viii be renewed at the first of
next month if the applicants can
stand the pressure.
License will cost about fourteen
hundred dollars year and several of
the smaller places will have to close
down as they cannot raise the money
necessary.

He was in there last summer but
