Weather Prophet Devo declares that
the worst weather is yet to come aud
predicts that the first few days OF next
month will be marked by terrible
storms. Col Devo has hit it pretty
often of late, but we trust for the
sake Of long suffering public that
his record may soon be broken
Ed. NJ Heermans of the Manning
ton Advocate is in town on his way
to Pittsburg. He has been doing
very well since he took charge of
the Warrington parer and is in love
with his new home. Heermans is
great hustler and will keep the peo-
pie of that section of the state fully
informed Of what is going on.
c. g. Mccoy has been at lock nine
with the government launch. The
progress that has been made recently
on this lock is very encouraging but
it will be some little time before the
repairs are completed. Some Of the
timber that is needed has not yet
been purchased. 1t takes a certain
kind of timber for lock gates and this
is hard to get in this country.
Prof. A. r. Whitehill has recently
examined some we'll water taken from
the we'll in the public school lot at
He has reported to the
up there that he found
the water to be free from impurities
such as they suspected were present.
1t was thought that the water had
caused an epidemic Of fever in that
part OF town.
1t is now announced that the
Standard Band, OF Parkersbnrg, will
be made the band Of the I'd West
Virginia Infantry Of the National
Guard. The Citizens Band, Of that
city was first spoken of in that con-
nection but some of the members of
that organization refuse to enlist.
The Standard is said to be one of the
finest bands in that section and will
doubtless be credit to Col. Morrison's
Regiment. II they desire to hold up
the credit OF the Regiment they will
have to "play music" for Jack Knox,
the leader Of the FRS. Regiment band
does not intend for any organization
to outShine his men. -Fairmont
