A REUNION CONTEMPLATED.
Sixth Ohio Aud First West Virginia
May Camp at Parkersbnrg.

PARkERsBuRG, w. Va, April Is. =
A proposition was formulated here
for presentation TO the b GA Il
OF trade, looking TO the entertain
meat here Of the reunion Of the Sixth
Ohio and First West Virginia regi-
meuts. These regiments were camp
brothers at Chickamauga during the
Spanish war and overtures toward a
reunion Of the commands have been
going on for some time. The Sixth
Ohio is not financially In position to
have a separate encampment from
that Of all the Ohio state troops, and
the idea is TO raise money here to OBJ
yiate this disability and have good
time here for two weeks in June. It
is believed the board will endorse the
plan and help raise the necessary
funds. All of the companies OF the
first West Virginia have signified
their intention of attending the re-
union.

bursed out of a State fund set aside
for that purpose. The effect has been
to leave the live stock in the State
free from any faint of contagion and
the diseases common to animals.
In his last report the consulting
veterinarian made the following state
ment.
Farmers are beginning TO discover
the fact that scrub stock is not sala-
Bile, not profitable To raise, while the
same amount of time and labor spent
in caring for good stock will bring
much better returns. The market
for good horses, cattle and sheep has
not been in better condition for years
and were the farmers To raise good
stock they would neither have to look
for buyers or dispose of for a pittanee,
but on the contrary the buyers would
come 20 them and they would set theft
price on the stock =

BIG DEVELOPMENT.
MonongaheIa Valley Between Morgan
town and Fairmont to Blossom this
Year.

1t is expected that more coal prop
erty, in this state will be developed
this year than in any like period in
the history of the trade says the In
telligencer Thousands upon thouS
sands of acres have recently been
purchased with view to inmedi-
ate operations, and with increased
facilities for mining and marketing
coal in the older mining properties
we may expect to see West Virginia
make marvellous record in this in
dustry Many railroads are build
ing, seeking to enter virgin fields
while numerous branches are reach
ing out from the trunk lines tapping
the states richest resources in tim
Der as well as coal
a writer in the New York Coal
Trade journal, reviewing the coal
trade OF the Monongahela valley,
from Pennsylvania standpoint, has
this to say Of the origin of the intro
duction of West Virginia coal into
the competitive markets of the coun-
try.
sThe national strike Of 1894 opens
ed a new factor in the coal trade of
the region about Pittsburg, a factor
that has greatly injured the coal in
dustry Of Ohio; for 1t was at this time
that the coal OF West Virginia. the
miners of which state refused to
strike, was introduced into the com
petitive markets, where hitherto it
had to meet an lntolerant prejudice
against it. 1t was during this per-
iod that West Virginia Goals found
a market in Chicago. Cincinnati and
the cities of central Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois, which has been inereas=
ing ever since 1t was Just the OPP
portunity to introduce their Goals
that the West Virginia producers
were hoping for, and gave them a
chance to prove the merit of the coal
they had to offer The result justi-
fed their claims in large part, and
to-day that state is a factor in the
trade of the Monongahela and Ohio
valleys that it is dangerous to ig
more, come what may
We should say we were factor,
and the handsome thing about it is
we intend to stay factor until the
day shall come, which surely it must,
when West Virginia will be the larg-
est coal producer in the United States.
This is no game of bluff, but dead
certainty. When the improvement
Of navigation of the Monongahela
river reaches the headwaters at Fair
mont, and this is assured, Pennsyl-
vania will not be in it with the
Mountain State. Speed the day.

bright and sunny nature, that makes
radiant the very atmosphere about
her aud so defles melaueholia that It
is impossible to resist its influence.
As Miss st. Almond, the actress, in

all hearts. Again, as Nell Merridew,
in MY Milliner's BIZ, she won the
best OF praise: but it was as Lady
Lucille, In aThe Circus Rider that

Her clever reading OF the lines, the
easy, careless grace with which she
invested the part, her adroitness in

PECULIAR ACCIDENT.

Top of Coach in the Rear-No One
Hurt Although There are Some Mar
row Escapes Accident Occurred on
Sunday Morning.


On Sunday morning when the noon
train arrived here it presented sor-
~ sight One of the driving rods
on the engine was gone and great
hole in the top of one Of the coaches
told a very plain story of an acct
dent which had delayed the train
for half hour or more
The engine was number 613 I'M
der charge of engineer McCarty and
the accident occurred a short dis,
lance this side of Fairchance when
the train was running at the rate OF
sixty miles an hour.
A rough place in the track is
thought to have had something to
do with the rod flying off although
the real cause of the accident is not
known.
All at once it parted from the
wheel and flew up through the cab
and lighting on one of the coaches
in the rear.
Strange to say neither the engi-
neer nor firemen was hurt but the
latter was thrown back into the ten
der by some pieces of wreekage
striking him
The engine came on TO Morgan
town and Fairmont with the remain
ing driving rod and made the re-
turn trip to Connellsvelle in the
afternoon under the same condi
tions. The engine has been put in
the shop for repairs.
The accident was very strange
one and it resulted in a very sortu-
nate escape for all of those whose
lives were jeopardized from the men
in the cab to the passengers in the
coaches.

not to crack or scale, and to be fire
proof. T. b. Wilgus is introducing
it for the Company. He has all col
ors on hand now and will show you
che tests. Call for book and sam

The u. S. Government has paint

for your fire-proof paint.
We don't seem to need it, but as
it appears daily miracle that the

burn, we propose giving it an extra
coat just for luck.
If you want one single indorse-
ment Of your paint to more than take
the place of all others, send an agent
here with camera and let him take a
photo at the door of our furnace. We
use mixture OF charcoal braize and
coke with fan blower under crates
that shoot volumes of mighty flame
and sparks all over the wooden cell
ing ten feet above, when the charge
is thrown in.
We have never had an accident
and our wood work is as neutral to
the flames as though Of iron; yet the
danger seems so imminent that we
have fire service within arms reach

there would not be as the state did
not have the money for it. However
the two regiments will hold regimen

will depend on the circumstances at

different towns desirious OF getting

The Guard is now full. Both REQ.

last one mustered in was the one at
Rowlesburg, the orders for which
have just been issued. This compa
ny has been waiting patiently for
some time and the chances looked
slim for its being taken but it was
finally decided to muster them In.
This, together with the new com
pany in Wetzel county, makes the
