DR.. Reynolds Resigns as President.

At a special meeting of the board
of directors of the Morgans Grove
Fair Association last Saturday the res
ignation of DR.. A. S. Reynolds as
president was accepted and Charles D.
Wysong was elected to fill the vacancy.
There was much regret that the ne
cessity to accept the resignation of DR..
Reynolds became imperative. He has
been the president of the association
since its organization in 1885, and it
is largely due to his untiring zeal and
earnest work that the fair has become
such success. His physical condi-
ton has moved him heretofore to give
up active work in the association, but
he yielded to the opportunities of those
interested and held on. This spring
his health is so seriously impaired that
he insisted upon being relieved of the
responsibility, and the directors re-
luctantly accepted his resignation.
DR.. Reynolds has been the main prop
of the fair since its foundation, and
the whole community recognizes the
obligation to him for his continuous
work for its success. The fair officials
are to be congratulated upon securing
so worthy a successor in the person Of
Mr.. Wysong. He has been one of the
active managers Of the fair since it
was first organized, and under his
careful direction we have no doubt
that it will continue to prosper.
The directors have ordered that the
title to the fair grounds, which of ne
cessity had been vested in the direct
ors as individuals, shall be ira nsferred
to the fair association. This will be
done at once.
The directors on Saturday fixed a
uniform rate for the use Of the fair
grounds for ricnics and similar affairs.
The sum of two dollars will be charged.
The rates of admission to the fair
were fixed at the same price as last
year, namely: General admission %
cents, season tickets so cents, and ex-
hibitors' tickets Is cents.

Fatal Accident.

Elmer Boyer, the thirteen-year-old
son of John G. Boyer, was run over by
a car Of the Norfolk & Western Rail-
way at Shenandoah Junction Monday
morning and so badly hurt that he
died two hours later. Mr.. Boyer con-
ducts a store at Bardane, near the
Junction, and Elmer had gone to the
station to get some goods. He was
carrying box across the track when
freight car was backed against him,
throwing him under the wheels. One
leg and one arm were dreadtully
crushed and his head badly injured.
He was picked up and tenderly re.
moved to his home, where he expired
in a short time. He was an excellent

to his parents. He was a grandson

weeks ago. The funeral was held

Meeting Of the Board OF Regents.

A meeting of the Board of Regents
of the State Normal Schools was held
in Shepherdstown last Friday to con-
slider the plans for the new building
for Shepherd College to replace that
which was destroyed by fire few
months ago. All the members of the
old board were here save Superin-
tendent Miller, and in addition Messrs.
VIM. M. Straus, Ira E. Robinson and
II. L. Snyder, of the incoming board,
were present by invitation and par
ticipatsd in the proceedings. Hon.
Harvey W. Harmer presided.
Ten designs were submitted and
eight architects were present from
Wheeling, Morgantown, Fairmont,
Charleston, Pittsburg, Baltimore and
Washington. Among the plans shown
were some very desirable ones both as
to beauty of design and convenience
Of arrangement, but after considera-
ton of them all that of Harrison Al
bright, of Charleston, was selected.
Mr.. Albright's design is for plain
but handsome building of the CORN
THAN style Of architecture. 1t has
an imposing entrance through portlco
q by 81 feet in size, sustained by
pillars % feet in height. 1t has two
additional entrances. one facing north
and the other south. 1t is proposed
to construct the building Of Cleveland
stone and buff brick, with tile roof.
Its dimensions will be 157 feet in
length, and its greotest depth will be
107 feet, two stories high, with a base
ment. In the basement will be large
and complete gymnasium and Law
atories for both sexes. On the Sec
ond floor will be the study hall, a fine,
large, well-lighted room, which will
seat about $50 persons. This will also
be used as the chapel. On this floor
there will be the reception room, prin-
cipal' s offices, library and reading-room,
six recitation rooms and well devised
halls and lobbies. On the second floor
will be the auditorium, an immense
room of good proportions that will
seat $50 persons. There will be three
recitation rooms on this floor also and
the two society halls.
The heating arrangements will be
carefully looked after. The school
will be heated by steam and the boil
ers will be located in separated
building entirely detached. 1t is
proposed to have this building Of ma
tive stone-a pretty little house that
shall grace one corner of the grounds.
The building designed by Mr.. Al
bright is one that is harmonious with
the fine old building in which the
school is now located, and if it is con-
structed in accordance with the plans
it will be credit to the State and
source of great pride to our people.
The detailed drawings and specihca-
tons are now being prepared and ad-
vertisement for proposals will be pub,
lished shortly. Bids will be opened
at Huntington on June 18th. 1t is de-
sired to get the building operations
under way as soon as possible. We
congratulate the school officials and
the people of this section upon the
prospect OF securing such a splendid
building. 1t promises to be one of the
best in the State.
