FIRST MINE PROJECTED
Along the line of the NJ. and K
railroad.

A. C. Fulmer is opening 1.-THE Hart
man farm Is the location Long Sid
ing to be Gonstructed-Big Territory
under lease May first will see first
Shipment.
A. G. Fulmer Of Meyersdale, Pa,
wh) is practical coal man is open
ing a mine which will be the first one
opened along the NJ. and X. railroad.
This mine is to be located on the Hart
man farm near Woodland and it will
be reached by siding half mile long
running up from the NJ and K.
Work has started on the opening
and by May first coal is to be shipped
A contract has been made by Mr..
Fulmer that he will ship at least fifty
thousand tons year. OF course he
expects to ship much more than this.
The mine will be- large one and will
give employment to very large force
OF men.
The siding will start from the Addi-
son farm and run up the run to the
mouth OF the mine. It will be started
within the next few days and will
be finished before the mine is open
for business.
Mr.. Fulmer has obtained thous-
sand or fifteen hundred acres of Pitts
burg coal in that vicinity and Will
mine it. There hasn't been much
talk about the scheme and few people
know anything about it bnt it is bound
to be go.
The opening of this mine along the
Nj. and X. marks a new epoch IN our
industrial history and it is but the
first chapter in a wonderful story
which at present would read like a ro-
nance. In the next few years many
more mines will be opened.
ANOTHER GLASS FACTORY.
Negotiations are in progress which
may result in the location Of another
factory in this place. This is a Pitts
burg concern and has been attracted
here BY the coming Of the Marilla
Company Of Bradford. They heard
what inducements bad been made
for the MaFrila people and began
negotiations with Mr. Sturgiss look
ing toward their coming here.
Several conferences have been held
and they are we'll pleased with the
place and the arrangements which can
be made. The factory will make wire
window glass. 1t runs through the
summer season and shuts down dur
ing the winter holidays for a month
or so. One hundred and twenty five
skilled workmen will be employed in
She factory If it comes. The buildings
will cost seventy-fve thousand dollars.
The plant will be located some.
where on the NJ and K above town
il the decision is made TO come here.
1t will be known in short time if

A GREAT BOOM.
West Virginia Glass rs Attracting the
attention OF the World-Mr Gauding
Writes.

II. w. Gauding OF Martins Ferry,
travelling correspondent OF the Com
moner and Glassworker, has taken a
thorough trip through the glass man
ufacturing towns OF West Virginia
and ia the current issue OF his period
ical writes in an interesting vein of
the condition of the trade. In speak
ing OF the comparatively new Repub-
lie glass works, built BY Wheeling
capital, he says;
-Four machines, employing eight
shops, are working at the Atlas Glass
& Metal Co, S Republic plant here
Only one tank is being operated at
the present time but Manager Charles
Runyon said they were heating up the
second tank and would have 1t in OPP
GRAFTON In the near future. The out
put here is common tumblers exelu-
sively at present but other lines have
been made in the past. The ma
chimes are operated by electricity the
power being supplied by two large gas
engines Thomas Coleman formerly
Of the keystone works, Rochester,
Pa, has charge of the mechanical and
mold department. Manager Runyon
was formerly at the head OF the Key
stone factory department.
Mr.. Gaudng says. "All the glass
producing towns in central West Vir-
ginia appear TO be booming at a great
rate New business blocks and resi-
dences are going up on every side and
the value OF real estate has in many
instances doubled and ttebled during
the past two years. A number of in
dustrics besides glass works have been
landed by the boards OF trade in the
different towns and, as the interests
represented are diversified, there ap.
pears TO be unlimited confidence In the
future of these towns. Many improve
ments are contemplated and many are
now being made, and Ii will be but
short time until the facilities afforded
the citizens Of Morgantown, Fairmont
and Clafksburg will be equal to those
found only In cities having a much
larger population. Fairmont now has
a good trolley line in operation aud
lines will be completed Ia the very
near future at both Clarksburg and
Morgantown. This convenience, it's
needless 30 say, will be greatly appre-
ciated by the workers, many Of them
having for months heen compelled to
pIow through long reaches of mud,
which has the proyerbial West Vir-
ginia consistency. in going TO and
from the scene OF their labors.

'.THE span OF LIFE"
Famous old Meiodrama Packs the Ly-
ceum TO the Doors.

"The Span OF Lite" Sutton Vane $
thrilling English melodrama, was
well presented at the Lyceum Thea,
ter before two large and well salts
fled audiences. 1t is just the sort
of play that enthuses the melodrama
loving audience from the start. The
action of the piece is spirited, and
opening in England, jumps to South
Africa, and then reaches satisfac-
tory conclusion at ehome, sweet
home" again. The william is as bad
as they make 'em, even in melodra-
ma, and there was no one TO sympa
thise with him as he was led away
with the bracelets on him, while
those who are to live happy forever
after form a glad and inspiring tab
leau.
When the story opens the william
is after mint of money, which ne
cessitates The murder of his juvenile
and precoeious stepbrother, and
calls for his marriage to the little
chaps sister. But she has made her
own choice, and the schemer's plans
are foiIed. Ten years later he is in
pursuit of gold and diamond mine
which the hero has located, but once
again his plans come to naught. Mr..
William Vaughn was strong as Rich
ard Blunt, his narrative of his dream
being worthy dramatic effort. Miss
Lenore Gordon filed the role of
Kate Heathcote in clever manner,
and very bright child (Gwendolyn
Eunice) deserves much commenda-
tion for the precocious histrlonlc
ability displayed The acrobatic
turn of the three Donazettas won
much applause, and their human
bridge was clever and popular feat.

amples of stage handicraft The

The Department FroMns.

According to a Washington dispatch
1T is understood that the treasury de-
partment looks with disfavor upon
those banks ia West Virginia which
withdraw bonds now deposited to Sc
cure circulation, either for the pur-
pose of placing them in the market to
secure the higher premium now pre-
vailing, or for the purpose of making
them the basis of 40 application to
secure government deposits.
1t is believed that Secretary Shaw
will not be disposed in the event OF a
further increase OF the government
repositories to designate those banks
which have so withdrawn bends.

SOME POLITICS.
County Candidates are Shaking
the Bushes.


isIature-Captain Parker Said to have
Similar Ambitlons-Sturgiss not a
Candidate-Other Minor Notes.
Politics will soon begin TO make 3
stir in the county aud district. There
is not much doing at present but the
air will be full Of fur before many more
weeks 60 by. Candidates for the va
rious county offices are hustling al
ready. Those for the legislature are
getting into the fight slowly.
Altha Warmau is making an active
canvass for the nomination from the
east side of the river There are no
other candidates yet announced. 1t
is stated that Captain Parker of Gran
vile would also like to go. He will
represent the west side Two men,
bers OF the house will be elected from
this county as a result of the increase
in population as shown by the last
census.
It has been reported that Hon.
George G. Sturgiss is candidate for
the State Senate. He was asked
about it this morning and stat
4 ed that he was not. When asked IL
he would be he said that he had not
thought about it at all and was not
allowing the matter TO cause him any
uneasiness.
The city election is moving along
quietly and so far there are few can
didates for any of the offices who have
announced NJ. T. Sisler and Al Lay
ton are shaking the bushes for record
er. They are the only ones yet in the
field. Candidates for council have
been named by mass meetings in two
wards.
On Friday night the committee of
Fifteen is to have another meeting.
1t is probable that they will select
candidates for mayor and recorder to
represent the outlaying wards. In
this connection it is stated that Ven
A. Barrickman and G. A. Goodwin are
being groomed for recorder and mayor
respectively.
1t has been suggested that mass
meeting of all the voters be held TO
select candidates who will best repre-
sent the interests of the whole town
"A call may be issued for this before
many days. The election takes place
on April third.

Their Honesty Tested.

The honesty of the West Virginia
postal clerks was put to a severe
test last week. Saturday a silver
dollar was received at the Parkers

mailed from Bluefeld, w. Va, to a
gentleman there without any wrap

on the other was the address on a

longed for by the clerks through
whose hands it passed, it arrived
safely at its destination and was de
liyered to the consigned

A New Stamp.

The officials Of the postoffiee depart
ment in Washington have decided TO
issue a thirteen cent postage stamp.
which is particularly designed for the
foreign mail service. At present it is
impossible to send registered letter
through the foreign mails without
using two stamps, one of five cents to
pay the postage and one of eight cents
to pay the cost of registration. The
new stamp will bear portrait Of
President Harrison to be copied from
an excellent likeness of the late Pres

FORTUNES ACROSS SEA
That the Gullible try TO Get But Never
Reach.
Wheeling Intelligencer.


Many people In this country who
have traced their English ancestry
F'away back have beer given to dreams
OF coming into possession Of rich
es through the death of some one OF
wealth whose fortune is held in the
chancery court Of England subject to
the order Of the next OF kin. Lots OF
people have tried their luck in this
line with the lawyer getting their all
and they getting none Of the impoun-
ded soyereigns. 1t is still popularity
believed 10 this country that untold
millions are boarded up in England
awaiting the Identification of the
proper owners. This idea, however, is
dispelled by a document just issued by
the supreme court of England, from
which it appears, that these funds
aggregate barely $1,000, 600. This
sum represents more than ?, 200 sep
crate accounts, one half OF which do
not exceed $3.50 ia value, while one
twentieth exceed SIS, 600 The court
solemnly warns everybody longing to
explore this treasure-house not to be
led away Oy the gross mis-statements
of men who issue lists of heirs of un-
claimed money. So those who have been
waiting for their "ship TO come in"
might as well waken from their dreams
and begin IT, hustle.

son to Make Fast Miles.
Encouraged by his success of Satur-
day night Jack Prince has arranged
an attractive card for the second
night at the coliseum tomorrow even
ing. Freeman. Chapman, Lawson and
Lake will try conclusions with each
other in four heats of five miles each.
The riders will be paced by motor
cycles and the exciting scene of Sat
urday night will be repeated. The
men will dash around the eight lap
track and incline from one side to the
other like so many storm tossed ships.
At some points the track appears al
most perpendicular and gives the
riders the appearance of riding on the
side of a wall.
The first heat will be run between
Chapman and Freeman and the second
between Lake and Lawson. The third
heat will be between the two winners
and the fourth between the two losers,
giving those who attend an opportuni-
ty of seeing clearly the speed the sew
eral men are capable of attaining,
and their cleverness for following in
the wake of the motorcycles. There
VIII De TOUR prizes onered in this
strong event.
In addition to the competitive race
there will be several other events, and
it is expected that some of the local
riders will be pitted against each 9TH
er. Exhibitions by the motorcycles
will also be on the programme. Besides
being one of the best motor-racers in
the country Lawson, the Terrible
Swede, is speedy rider and has sew
eral records and many first prizes in
his list of belongings. He made him
self a favorite by his graceful handling
of the motor at the opening of the
coliseum. Manager Prince announces
that hereafter the races will be started
on time, even though the crowd is late
in showing up. He is pleased with the
way Savannah has caught on to the
races and is engaged now in framing
up some drawing cards.
