Friday afternoon and notice was at
once served on Dr. Raymond at his
rooms on Main street.
Deputy sheriff John B. Wallace
served the writ. The suit is insti-
tuted by DR.. Hartlgan by reason of
the slanderous and unfounded re-
ports which DR. Raymond has been
circulating among students, mem
bers of the faculty and others
These not only attack the char
acter Of DR.. Hartigan himself but
reflect on his family, relations in
such manner that he could not en-
dure it and remain silent under it.
Frazer and Frazer and Charles A.
Goodwin are the counsel for Dr.
Hartigan. The declaration on the
suit has not yet been filed but it

The Most Suitable Christmas Present

At this season of the year every
one is racklng his brains to dis
cover the most suitable present to
bestow on friends both present and
absent. The MANY articles that are
displayed but add TO the confusion
and ten to one the wrong present Is
selected and sent. The effect on the
recipient can be better imagined
than described.
There is one thing that can al.
ways be sent however with perfect
good taste and that is box of
chocolate or bon bons. This present
is always the correct thing and it is
always appreciated at full valne.
Inquiry among local dealers shows
that there is heavier run on Rev
mer's chocolates and bon bons that
there are on all others combined.
This they explain by reason of
tue superior quality Reymer goods.
They are the best and are adj
mittedly to be so by the people
who know good candy when
they taste it. This candy is put up
in boxes of any size suitable for
mailing of for instant delivery The
way that it is put up adds to its at
Effectiveness and makes it even more
delightful and dainty than it would
be if less care were taken with it in
preparation for market.
All the dealers in town handle il
and they are increasing their orders
on account of its great and growing
popularity here.

GRAVE MISTAKE.
Board has Made it In the Case OF
Armstrong.

Board has Made IL In the Case of
Armstrong.
The action Of the university regents
in dismissing Prof. ROBERT Il. Arm
strong seems TO be entirely unjustifi-
able. Prof. Armstrong has filed the
important chair OF English with sig
nal ability. He has proved himself
to be splendidly qualified for the
place. In addition to this he is most
popular with all the students at the
university and the people of Morgan
town. No one stands higher In their
esteem. Men like Armstrong are
needed at the university. Men who
have the confidence and respect Of
students and people are wanted at
Morgantown. We can see no good
reason for dismissing so popular and
efficient an instructor and 1t looks as
though the whole transaction was To
crafty someone's petty spite. The
board has made grave mistake.
