Quite number of Pittsburg coal OPP

the afternoon they spent the time look
ing over the fields west of this city

sidered the most valuable coal field in

The B. & o. railroad is using its most
strenuous efforts to stop the tramp and
all persons from getting free rides on
freight trains. This bum element has
been pouring into this city of late in
large numbers and have caused much
annoyance to the public. Several of
the train crews have been reported for
allowing these people to ride, and 1T is
now thought the company will be able
to break up this nuisance.
The Shadyside people who have been
so much interested in having an cleo
trio railway line connecting them with
this city, seem to be rather dilatory in
the matter. Through an oversight the
statement that was to be presented by
the citizens to the township trustees
was overlooked, and can not now be
made to this body until their next
monthly meeting, but the matter will
be brought up at this meeting.
