then.

IT is to be hoped that the build
ing of the bridge to Greenmont may
not be long delayed. Morgantown

the same time be conveniently locat-
ed.

RANDOLPH county will probably
settle the fuss they have on hands
by dividing the county into two so
that each of the rival towns can have
court house of its own In this
way the only peaceful and final SO
Hutton of the difficulty will be found.
A FORCE of men has heen working
for several days on the road going up
on the west side Of the river and they
have repaired a number of bad places
in it. The last winter was a very
hard one on the roads and they will
take lots OF work to get them in shape
again.
The railroad election is the main

various are the reasons for voting

isn't any doubt expressed on the
question as to whether or not the
road would be a very profitable thing
for the district.

A GENTLEMAN who is well quail
fled to speak says there are more prizes
offered students for excellence in work
by the University than any other
school in the country. 1t might be
added that the University also offers
great many other opportunities to
young men and women that cannot be
found elsewhere.
WESTON papers keep on suggest
ing that there is something rotten
in the affairs of the asylum at that
place. Two of the leading directors
have lately resigned without any ex-
PLANTATION which gives color to these
charges. The state should see to it
that there is nothing wrong and if
there is the knife should be applied.
MEMS $3.50 suits to be sold at 49,
so for few daysOnly. Wilmington.
THE social at the Presbyterian
church came off on Saturday night
and netted nice little sum to the or
eanization giving it. A large num-

nice time. No effort was spared to
entertain and amuse the visitors and
the evening passed off very pleasantly.

LEGATION issued by the inmates of the
Sing Sing, penitentiary. 1t is I'M
ique among publications, in that
the editor has no fear of libel suits
and no reason to be apprehensive of
visit from an indignant reader
with shot gun, and need not worry
about unpaid subscriptions.
THE weather on Sunday was ideal
and everyone who could get out was
out enjoying it. Every road out of
Morgantown was filed with vehicles
and wheels while people on foot
wandered off in every direction enjoy
ing the beauties of the day. Seldom
has nicer day been seen here and
every one was ready to take advantage
of it.
CURLING is being set on Spruce
street and it is being done in accord
ance with specifications as far as
can be seen. The crushed stone is
going under the curbing and when
the job is finished the town will get
what it has bargained to pay for.
No more Berry business as tar as
the curbing is concerned is being
given us.
A NUMBER of experiments have
been in progress for some time by Prof.
Hite, chemist at the Experiment Sta
ton, that will revolutionize some
things if made practical, and there is
every prospect that they will. 1t is

and other perishable matter that will
keep them for an indefinite time. A
great deal of interest and Importance
attaches to the work.
THE fellow who throws glass and
stuff of that sort on the streets will
have hard row to hoe after the
grand jury gets through with him.
