MEET HERE.
State Lodge of Knights of Pythi
as Accept
They Will Come to Morgantown Next
Year Delegates Begin to Get Back
They Had a Delightful Time Large
Attendance on The Meeting Only
One Town Bucked Against us.

Part of the Morgantown delegates
TO the meeting of the state lodge of
Knights of Pythias have returned
home. In the party that came in
were John M. Gregg, Col. S. A Poster
and George Vangilder They were
very well pleased with their enter
tainment in the first city and were
loud in their praises Of the hospitali-
ty extended to them.
The attendance was the largest that
has ever been witnessed at a similar
affair in the city of Wheeling. Sc
great were the crowds that on one oc-
casion they broke through the ropes
and stopped an impressive drill that
was being given on the streets. After
this the uniformed rank was station
ed along the sides of the streets and
they kept the people back better.
The next meeting of the grand lodge
will be held in Morgantown The
vote in favor of this place was nearly
unanimous. Only one other place
asked for it and this was Elizabeth,
Writ county. Several other places
wanted it but they soon found out
that Morgantown would be successful
and they drew out. The sentiment
in favor of Morgantovn was very
strong even before anything had been
done by the local representatives in
favor of the town.
The election of officers resulted in
the election of the slate or in the reg
ular rotation that has come into prac-
tice. Not single Morgantown man
was elected to any position as it was
not their turn to get anything. Col.
Poster has been holding the highest
position in the gift of the state for
the past year and retired with honor
from the duties of the position. His
closing address was considered very
able production and was delivered very
well.
The town is very glad that we will
get the knights. 1t will dc us lots Of
good and We will show them very
nice time. The local lodge is large
one and is composed of the best young
men in the city. They are full of en-
ergy and they will spare no pains to
make the sessions the most notable
ever held in the grand lodge.
Floyd U6terhack and G. E. Stephan
both Of this city also attended the
meeting in Wheeling but they have
not yet returned to their homes
Stephan is expected in the first of the
week.

The Way 1t Looks to an Outsider

s'The laws of West Virginia, or
some of them, must have been passed
wholly for mercenary purposes" said
d Unioltown man who bad taken in
Chadwick Day. "For instance they
don't have licence in Morgantown,
but speakeasies are as numerous as
bees at a molasses barrel and in con-
sequence there is lots of room for
bribing. On Chadwick day it was no
trouble to get all you wanted. All
you had to do was to go into a place, :
get what you wanted and go about
your business. They were run no
more secretly than saloon in Union
town is, and the funniest thing of all
about the business is that the officers
occasionally notify the proprietors to
be little more careful and not run
things SO openly.
