MAY BE RAISED TODAY
Quarantine Against Newport News,
Hampton and Old Point

Newport News, Va, August 11.-Probably
tomorrow evening the quarantine against
Newport News, Hampton and Old Point
will be raised by all of the cities which
closed their doors to people and business
from these places early last week. The
yellow fever is under control and all of
the patients in the hospital at the Soldiers
Home are convalescent. The state and To-
cal health authorities have decided that it
is no longer necessary to quarantine
against this city, Hampton and Old Point.
The health authorities of Baltimore and
New Yorlk>haye practically said they would
raise the quarantine against the peninsula
tomorrow evening. Norfolk will take the
same measures, and it is expected Boston
and PHILADELPHIA will do likewise.

A Farewell Compliment.

The Columbus, Ga, Enquirer-Sun,
in noticing the mastering out of the
First West Virginia Regiment of Vol
unteers in that city Saturday last says:
zone very gratifying feature of the
muster out of the First West Virginia
regiment was the absence Of any dis
orderly and unruly scenes that some
times follow this ceremony The
West Virginians were well behaved
and quiet, and the provost guards had
not the slightest trouble with them.
The provost guard assisted the police
force during the day in keeping order.
The men were no longer amenable to
the United States authorities, but
were, of course, subject to police jur-
isdiction while in the city. Some Of
the soldiers celebrated their release by
drinking too much, but there were no
fights, and take as whole the good
order was remarkable. The boys were
good natured, and although inclined
to be lively and jolly, there were no
disagreeable disturbances.

THE WORST PASSED.
Weather May be Expected to Moderate
Somewhat.

WASHINGTON, Feb. $3.50 p. NJ
The cold wave which has prevailed
during the past IL days in the central
valleys West and Northwest has final
ly reached the Atlantic coast, and ex-
tends from Maine to Florida. This
morning the line OF zero temperature
extended through Oklahoma, Arkan-
sas, Central Tennessee and Central
Virginia, while the lowest tempera-
ture reached was 40 degrees below
zero, at Williston. In Florida the
line of freezing temperature extended
below Tampa, with a minimum tenn
perature Of 80 degrees at that place.
In the districts from Iowa and Mis-
souri, eastward through Ohio and
almost to the Atlantic coast the tenn
peratures ranged from zero to 26 de-
grees below zero, and were from
to degrees below the lowest tempera-
lures previously recorded during the
first decade of February. The tenn
peratures, however are moderating in
the East Gulf and South Atlantic
States and the Central Rocky noun
tain region. Fair weather has pre-
vailed, with the exception OF light
snow in the lake regions and extreme
northwest and rains and SHOWS in the
West Gulf States, the latter being
due to slight depression that is CEN
trail tonight near the Texas coast.
In the north and middle plateaus and
the North Pacific coast region rains
and SHOWS have continued, while
clear weather prevailed to the south
ward. The temperature changes in
these districts were unimportant.
Snow or rain is indicated from Eastern
Texas northeastward to Western
North Carolina and Southern Tenn
essee and lightsnows in theNorthwest;
elsewhere generally fair weather will
continue except in the lake regions,
where the snow furries may be expec-
ted.

This the Truth.

The county commissioners of Mon
ongalia county do not want to build
another bridge at that place across
the Monongahela river. There is
but right thing to do and be done
with it, and that is to buy the pres
ent bridge now suspended over the
stream. It will be the cheapest, the
wisest and the only safe plan to pur-
sue. Loggerheadism never counted
a cent for the people, and it
never will.-Free Press.

THE COOLEST THAT EVER.
Thursday night was the coolest
ever experienced in this state.

38 Degrees below record ut several
places in the county and at adjacent
p0ints-NOt so cold in town but it was
cold enough Oldest inhabitant not a
word to say-Ail records broken to
!smash-Frost Bites plentiful.
According to the prediction made
by this paper yesterday, last night
was the coolest of the year. 1t was
also the coolest night ever expert
enced IN this county SO far as the
records go. The mercury has been
known to reach some very low
points but nothing like as cod as it
was last night
The oldest records that we have
have nothing like it was last night
The mercury did not get above the
zero mark anywhere yesterday ex-
,cept where the sun got fair strike
at it aud then it went only a few
degrees above that point. AS soon
as the sun got off Of it it began to
go down and during the night it
reached points never before touched.
In town at s o'clock ia the morn
ing it was 81. Several points in the
county reported even lower tempera-
ture than that although we think
that is quite cold enough for all
practical purposes. Arnettsville,
Riyesville and Paradise all hold the
belt, having reported 30 below.
Reedsville could not be reached and
It is probable that the telephone
wires have become SO thoroughly
frozen that the sound will not pene-
trate them. Guseman's report 80.
Other points in the county are not
go cold but the night was chilly
enough everywhere.
Had there been wind like there
was on the morning before people
could not have withstood the dread
full cold but there was hardly a
breath Of air stirring and one did
not notice it so much The suffer
ing among all classes of people
was greatly reduced through this
absence of wind.
Frozen ears, noses and other ex-
posed parts of the face and head
were frequent and the man who has
not one of these marks Of the favor
of Jack Frost is not in it Several
people have have had their hands
and toes nipped but none have been
frozen seriously.
The indications are that the
weather will moderate to some ex-
tent but how soon the normal tenn
perature will be resumed cannot be
told at this time.

forty-two Below at Pedlars Run.

A late telephone message from
Pedlars Run states that it was for
ty-two below at that place. This
holds the record so far as heard
from in the county. Arnettsville
and Paradise are outclassed and can
not remedy the mistake made by
sending in their reports too early.

A RECOUNT ORDERED.
Supreme Court Decision i'm the Beverly
Elkins County Seat War.

The supreme court of West Virginia
has handed down an opinion in the
case growing out of the controversy
between the towns of Elkins and Bev-
erly over the location Of the county
seat of Randolph county. The decis-
ion awards peremptory mandamus
to compel the county of Randolph to
go into complete recount and inves-
tigation of the ballots cast on the
question of moving the court house
from Beverly to Elkins.
AS was stated some weeks ago the
face OF the returns from an election
which was held showed a victory for
Elkins, but the Beverly people charg-
ed fraud and demanded a recount.
