WANTS GAS.
Another Protest From Sou
Park Sufferer.


City is Progressive in Every other Re-
specific wants the Warning Com
panies to Get Together and Give Gas
to Residents Of That Part Of the
City.
To the Editor to the New DOMINION.
The letter 10 your Saturday eve
ning's issue from a South Park resi-
dent has forcibly brought before the
citizens Of Morgantown a condition
that is more serious than many resid-
| ing here had any idea existed. The
very fact that there are as many as
twenty-five families on the upper part
of South Park Hill absolutely without
any means of heat, from 7 a. m. until
often as late as 9 p. m.. is problem
that cannot possibly be estimated by
any to the slightest imaginable de-
gree, except those who are undergoing
the inconvenience and who daily are
holding Ia their minds the awful
dread that sickness may oyertake any
member Of their family, the results
of which one breads to think Of
l can truthfully say that during the
past six weeks, barring an occasional
warm day we have been unable To
cook any meals 10 our home before or
after the hours / have already men
TONED, or raise glimmer in our
CRATES.
/ do not believe the blame can be
placed on any shoulders except on the
wonderful development OF our city
and the large increase In the popula-
ton and building interests 10 all sec
| tions, yet this does not remedy the
conditions at all and strenuous effort
should be made by all interested to
Immediately repair the wrong and re-
lieve the ''quaiantined" families on
the hill.
Morgantown today stands in glo-
rious light before the entire State OF
West Virginia. We new corners want
to be with the city In It's wonderful
progression and we want to aid and
assist all 10 building up one OF the
finest cities, surrounded as 1t Is by
natures choicest scenery, to be found
in the United States of America.
Let the Land Company and Gas
Company Immediately get together
and remedy the evil. Both Of them
are controlled by the representative
men OF the CITY; men Of character, bon
or and integrity, who must feel for us
shivering ones, let them show us the
first signs of relief and we will be
patient and friendly TO the last, but
let them place themselves In our
places and how will they feel, were
their families afflicted as ours are?
In these days of progression and
prosperity there is no problem beyond
the power of solving, and after we
have gas let US all join hands to fur
ther the interests of all, clean our
city, purify our sanitary conditions,
rid the streets of loafers at night,
cleanse the sidewalks OF our main
street from the dispensers of tobacco
Tllth and let US forge on toward a
model city, garden In the mountains
vertiable garden of Eden. Every
thing is possible, let US go after the
possible.

THE SCHOOL OF MUSIC.

meneement of the Wintea Term Two
new Teachers Placed on the Faculty
| Miss Ada Virginia Houston resigns,
| Commencing with the winter term
some changes for the increased enroll
ment in the school OF music will take
place. Miss Ada Virginia Houston
has resigned so that she can devote
more lime to her studies. Dean
Wrightson has engaged Miss
| Mabel Constance Foster of Chicago to
take her place. She is an accom- dish
ed musician and said TO be one of the
finest accompanies in the West.
Schlrmer Co. the largest music pu b.
fishing honse In America have just az
cepted seven of her own compositions.
She plays beautifully and will add
much to the dignity Of the Faculty
She will be the School accompanlst
| for Concert occasions and for the
Choral Society. She will also do all
Dean Wrightsons accompanying. She
will take few piano scholars and en-

Miss Frances Thomas has this term
been added to the local department
but next term will do more active
work. That she is Dean Wrightson's
star pupil alone is sufficient to guar
antee hel efficiency as teacher and
those who have heard her voice are
charmed with it.
Both OF these new teachers will
make their first appearance at the
Quarterly Convocation ON Friday eve.

will give "God Thou art Great" at a

All these items show the activity of

ABOUT GAME LAWS.
Well Known Sportsman Makes So
Excellent Suggestions.

Excellent Suggestions.
l notice with regret the item Ia
yesterdays paper saying that there is
a probability OF the next session OF
the Legislature repeating the non
resident game law. To one who has
watched closely the workings of a
nonresident game law, aud noted its
effect. it would seem a most unfortu-
nate move, and IL there is any power
to prevent it, certainly the local or
ganization OF sportsmen should take
an active interest 10 trying to prevent
any such thing The best game
states in the union have nom resident
game laws, and Maine, which is
easily the leading game state will
have 1t at the next session of the leg.
islature, or many people are mu ID
mistaken. 1t cannot be other than
a great protection to the game OF any
state, and anything that protects our
game should be adhered to.
Another matter that the local or
ganization should move ia is the pas
sage of law limiting the amount OF
big game that one person may kill in
a season. As il is man may kill
any number OF deer that he can which
perhaps is not tolerated III any other
state. The object Of sportsmen Or
ganizing is to secure legislation for
the better protection Of game, as well
as that OF enforcing the laws that be,
and right now, seems TO an outsider,
20 be very fitting time to do some
thing. EMERSON CARNEY.

SWAMPED TRRM.
Gas Company not Able to
Keep pace With TheDemand.

Vast Increase in Population aad Con-
sumption of Gas has Prevented Com
pany From Keeping up with it, New
MAINS and New Wells will be Pro-
vided at once-lnteryiew with Man
ager Grant.
Mr.. Z. NJ. Grant of the Union Gas
and Water Company was seen by u
representative of this paper today
in reference to shortage oil gas which
has been prevailing in town Tor a
few days during the present cold
spell.
He stated that all sorts of prepar-
ations had been made by the com
pany to anticipate the wants of the
population OF Morgantown but on
account of the way that people had
poured into the town during the
last year that the company had not
been able TO keep pace with the de.
mand.
Four thousand people and many
factories have been added to the
number of consumers during the
past year In that time new mains
have been placed..in town but there is
not enough gas to go round.
A big force of men are now at
work laying another eight inch main
from the gas field to town. This is
expected to be completed some time
this week.
A new well is expected to reach
the gas sand during the week and
this will be used to supplement the
supply.
Mr.. Grant stated that as far as the
people in Wiles' Hill aid on top of
the hill in South Park were concern
ed that the pipes which had been
laid for their benefit had proven too
small and that new mans would al
so be laid for them at once.
In the meantime he saws that the
gas cannot be furnished as it is not
here and cannot be gotten here for
the consumers He trusts that the
public will bear with the gas CON-
pany for few days when sufficient
amount of fuel will be at hand to
supply them every way Every
thing possible is being done to bring
this about at the earliest possibl q
moment.

is NOT THE STATES.

Annex of West Virginia's Capitol
stands on Part Of Land in Private
Hands.
CHARLESTON, Dec. 6-There is a
sensation brewing with the nearly
completed and very handsome Capitol
annex as the central figure. 1t is
claimed that Il portion o. the ground
which affords site for this structure
is not the property of the state, but
is vested in the name OF City Record
er w. W. Wertz, who purchased the
property year ago at sale by the
sheriff for delinquent taxes.
This development has created quite
furry and the adjustment of the
matter, so that the State may secure
the title TO the property, ~ a question
that will likely prove interesting be-
fore it is concluded.

MANY inquiries concerning the right
of women to vote for State and County
Superintendents of Schools at the
coming election have been made to the
State officials, and in order that the
question might be properly passed
upon it was referred by the Secretary
of State to the Attorney General for
an opinion. In reply Attorney Gen
era1 Hicks says: 81 am of the opinion
that women have the right to vote for
State and County Superintendent of
Schools at the next general election,
and that under chapter 285, laws Of
1901, separate ballot boxes should be
furnished at every election precinct for
the use of women desiring to vote on
school matters, and that separate bal
lots should also be provided for the use
of said women"
