THE DAILY NEW DOMINION
moacANrowN. FEBRUARY "a. 1900.

SATURDAY, February 18th, there will
be placed on the market a new novel
by MissssMary Johnston, with illustTa-
tons by Howard Pyle. 1t will be in one
volume, vo The price will be 81 80.
Like Prisoners of Hope. this is story
of the early years of Colonial Virginia,
opening in 1921 with the arrival from
England OF consignment of maldens 70
be sold to the colonists for wives, each
being offered for 100 pounds OF tobacco.
Rolfe, who had married and buried
Pocahontas. appears on the scene, but
not as the hero. This is Captain Ralph
Percy, by whom the story is told, and
this is a noble account of a series of
highly dramatic events and experiences,
some caused by the eoleDists them
selves, some by the London Company
which controlled the colony, others by
the Indians who watched them jealous
ly, and still others by the unfriendly
forces of nature. Over all the wild.
stormy scenes throughout the unfolding
of this drama, Miss Johnston presides
with the steadiness of Fate, and yet the
touch. however firm, is always definite
and fine. Both the story and the man.
ner of it's telling lend to this book a
very remarkable interest. You can get
this book as soon as it is on the market
from the Acme Book Store, Morgan
town, w. Va.

Repairing.

SINCE we have our tree bridge we
can sympathize with the people of
Connellsville who are trying to get
their bridge made free They are
working hard on the matter but they
have failed in the first round. They
ought to brace up and start into it
again.
You can buy Jackets, Capes, Etc
at your own price at the Novelty
Co.'S.
MoRGANTowN would like very
much to entertain the Democratic
congressional convention. Ii the
proper effort is made we can get it.
Those who are interested ought to ex-
tend the invitation and present the
claim Of the town to the committee
which has the matter in charge when
they hold their meeting to decide
about it.
A REPORT from Weston is to the
effect that Dir. Robert Ramsey, of
Clarkshurg who was recently quar-
antined at Mt. Clare has the small
pox. He had been waiting on a
number of patients and was not
thought to be taking the proper pre-
cautions and in consequence of this
was quarantined.

have gone through at any time that
navigation was under way on the
river.

Born, on Saturday night February
10th To Mr.. and Mrs. L. G. Corbett a
son.
Council meets tonight and some
very interesting events are expected
to transpire at the session. Nor
gantown will be interested in what
is to be done.
A NEW line OF Thos. G. Plants
celebrated shoes at Waters.
ALL of the British retreats have
been due to tactical reasons accord
ing to the British reports but the
real tactical reasons have probably
been that the Beers have licked
them.
The smallpox scare has entirely
subsidized and it is pretty clear that
we have none of it here. Many wild
stories were industriously circulated
however and were believed to great
extent.
BUILDING operations are now Ia
full blast but they will be delayed
somewhat by the rain. Contractors
are hoping for few days of good
weather SO that they can catch up on
some OF the time that they have lost.
AN additional evidence of our
prosperity is to be found in the plans
on foot for the establishment Gf a
new bank here. Morgantown is
getting to be good place for all
sorts OF business and the banker is
force that is always needed.
AS the winter wanes the length OF
the days is becoming more and more
apparent. At seven o'clock these
mornings it is almost light enough to
see to work in the offices while but a
short time ago it was still dark at
that hour
New lights have been placed in
the Seneca Club House and will add
much to the effects on the occasion
of the ball on Wednesday night. A
new walk has also been put down
from the Avenue to the building that
will add much to the comfort OF
pedestrians.

Getting Ready For Paving.

Col. Gilmore has begun to pillow
up the road leading up the hill past
the Experiment Station in the eff
fort to get ready to pave it at as
early date as possible. The work
will be pushed with all possible
speed and the paving will be com
pleted as soon as it can be done. A
great deal of it was finished last fall
but the weather stopped it before il
was all laid. 1t will not be long
until the town will also begin its
paving.
Sweeney and Houston viii be here
to attend to it as soon as the wealth
er opens so that satisfactory pro-
gress can be made in this direction

A PICTURE of Cheat River looking
up from the hotel appeared in the
illustrated supplement of the Pitts
burg Post on Sunday. The picture is
a very pretty one and is readily recog-
nized by everyone who has seen the
view. The supplement Of the Post is
eagerly looked for every Sunday. 1T
is one of the most attractive issued by
any paper and has incorporated in its
pages many points of interest in and
about Morgantown.
The arrest of the Franklin svndi-
cate man in Canada where be had
fled after the explosion of his bubble
has a peculiar interest for some Nor
gantown people While every town
in the country was hit by this swim
dler il is no wonder that he found a
few suckers in this place. Those
who were bitten by the scheme which
is one OF the cleyerest bunco games
that has ever beet sprung on the
public have been very shy about
telling of their experiences and when
asked about it they all with one ac-
cord tell about their being in anoth-
er scheme and that they knew all the
time that this man was no good.
But all the swindles look alike after
the crash comes.
