The Golfer is now being pumped out

their bridge swept away by u raft

MORE HOUSES NEEDED.
Morgantown Must get Ready
for Another Influx

OF GlasSmaking Citizens-W. X. Jones
Establishment will Bring Many new
People Here-0wners Feel Nervous
oyer Scarcity of Houses Fund not
Yet Raised.
The new Window Glass concern
about to locate in this city complain
that there are no houses with which
TO furnish the one hundred and seven
ty five employees which they will bring
here. The concern expects to start in
October next with about one hundred
men.
Mr.. w r. Jones president of the
company is of the opinion that about
fifty new houses will be necessary to
meet the requirements of the case.
Easily that many families will come
here, as the firm will endeavor as
nearly as possible to employ men with
families. that class of workmen being
desirable for obvious reasons. The
plant will have furnaces with thirty
six blower capacity, and with each
blower three men are employed inelu-
sive. This as the reader can see,
will employ one hundred and eight
men in the blowing department above.
The other departments, cutting and
: hattening and packing will employ
sixty seven additional men SO that the
works when running full capacity will
employ one hundred and seventy five
men besides the boys who will be
needed.
There is no doubt but that this In
fiux of worKlnen, and the necessity
for dwelling houses offers splendid
opportunity for local capital, and one
of which they ought to take advan-
tage. The business interests of the
city ought to take an interest in this
matter which vitality concerns every
man who has goods to SELL Work
men cannot come here unless they
have houses In which to live, and the
business man more than any other
will be benefited by their coming.
The fund Of two thousand dollars,
which is being raised by subscription
$ for the purpose of grading the site for
the new plant is not more than half
raised and this too is a thing in which
every business man ought to feel an
interest. This is matter that can
not be too quickly arranged. The
longer these preliminaries are delayed
the longer we delay the starting OF the
new plant. Think how many pur-
chases sixty or seventy five new fami-
lies moving to another city will te
required to make before getting
settled There is not merchant IN
the town but that will get part OF
this business
Messrs. r. w. Anderson, J II. Mills
and Jas. G. Frazer have subscription
papers. See them and show. how
much you want this big plant.

INSPECTION TOUR.
Prominent u. & o. Officials Visit Nor
ganGown Several Former Z. II. K.
Officials in the Party.

A special train, in charge If con.
duetor Davis, with number OF the
prominent officials OF the b. & O..
railroad in coaches used only by the
officers of the road, made an official
inspection Of the Pittsburg Division
during the last "a hours; passing
through here on their way to Fair
mont at 10 o'clock Wednesday night
and on their return trip at 7 80 this
morning.
The two special coaches on the
train contained the following oifi-
eials; John Barron. Superintendent
of the Pittsburg Division; ID. F. Ma
roney, General superintendent
Messrs. L. 6. Haas and r. j. Foley,
assistants to the General Manager
of the entire B. IL o. system, and J.
b. Frost, train master of the Pitts
burg Division. Messrs. Haas and
Foley were formerly officials of the
Pennsylvania Company, and this is
their first trip over the line.
The train with the official party
stopped here this morning about 25
minutes, the object beng the Inspec-
tien Of the ground in the vicinity of
the depot with reference to the con
struction of a necessary increase in
side-tracks which the local business
at this point imperatively demands.
There is little doubt but that the in
speetion will be followed by the de
sired improvement in this connec-
ton. It is not unlikely too, that
some extensions or additions may be
made to the freight depot, as well as
some other improvements Of minor
Importance The inspection is the
first one to be made over this Di Wis
ion by the company which has re
Gently acquired control Of the line,
and may result in some very impor.
tant changes.

Sheriff Barrickman Hired Samuel Ra-
Der to Remove his own Household
Goods.
1t is very rarely that a man helps
to eject himself from the house in
which he lives, and which he may
have considered his home, refusing to
move therefrom until the law thrust
him forth; but this was what actually
occurred Monday in Cass district.
One Samuel Raber lived in house
and on a farm the title Of which is
vested in brother. The occupant
had been notified several times by the
owner to vacate, but paid not the
slightest attention to these notices,
and at length the law was invoked to
obtain possession of the premises,
Sheriff Greeuberry Barrickman served
the process, and appealed to the oc-
cupant Of the house, submitting that
he (the sheriff. was unable to employ
anyone to help move the household
and other goods out into the road and
offering to employ him (Raben.
The sheriff explained that il was a
case of must get out" and that he
(Raher) might just as well earn the
money as anyone else. The two men
finally agreed that dollar would be a
fair consideration for the work, and
Raber worked as hard as any man
could setting his own household goods
out into the road.

PAY A PERCENT.
Pittsburg Proposition Might Take on a
Local Flavor.

There is hint for Morgantown in
the action which has just been taken
by the companies in Pittsburg which
want franchises for various matters.
The companies have agreed to pay the
city five per cent of the net earnings
during the time that the franchises
are operative This amount is not
excessive but it will bring in quite a
nice little revenue for the city.
In may be that something Of the
same kind could be done here without
hurting either the town or the people
VINO na4u franchises.
