SEEDS FOR THE ASKING.
Annual Distribution by the Depart
ment this Month.

The greatest distribution of fire
seeds by the Agricultural Depart
ment at Washington in the history
of the Department will take place
this month. Application should be
made through your congressman,
who will transmit your request to
the Department
There will be, as usual, distri-
bution of miscellaneo vegetable
seeds, and, in addition, it is planned
to furnish a limited number of
packages of novelties: that is, seeds
of varieties either new or little
known, and of peculiar merit, for
distribution in each locality. The
miscellaneous seed will be put up, as
usual, five packets in package, and
each senator, representative and del
egate in Congress will have 10000
such packages to his credit. There
will be 500 packages containing the
novelties, each package containing
five packets. The novelties will be
accompanied by circular describing
the varieties in full and giving di-
rections for culture and use. There
will also be a ranked postal card
tor each collection of the novelties,
so that the recipient may, if he de-
sires, signify his willingness to make
report to the department on the
seeds received.

GROOM WAS ARRESTED.
p. H. Moore Locked up at the Request
of his MOther-in-law.

BROWNSVILLE, Sept, Il-Mrs. Mary
Graves reported to the Bridgeport DO
lice last night that her daughter
Bessie was missing from home and
that she believed P. III. Moore had
enticed the girl away. Early this
this morning the girl returned home
and said she bad been married the
previous evening to Moore.
The mother doubted the girls word
and set the police on the lookout for
Moore. He was soon located and
locked up without the issuing Of a
warrant He said he had married the
Graves girl and objected to being lock-
ed up. Policeman Thompson after
an investigation discovered that
Moore and the girl had been married
by Squire E. L. Moorehouse. Moore
threatens to sue the borough for dam
ages.

TWO CENTS
FIRST LOT SALE.
Something About the Beechurst
Addition sale.

Event Occurred nine years ago-Forty
Thousand Dollars Worth Sold In two
days Start of MorgantoWn In an
Industrial way,
On June 2Sth and 10Th, 1898 the
| first public lot sale took place in Nor
gontown This sale was conducted
by the Building and Investment COM
pany which did the Moses act for the
city IN an industrial way.
One hundred and fifty acres OF land
lying below town was bought. Streets
were laid of and several factories were
located. When the lot sale was held
the Farrow Arms Company and
LoIgh Brothers shop were located on
the addition. The Seneca Glass Fac
tory came three years later.
Forty thousand dollars worth OF
lots were sold during two days. The
exact figures are $40, ESQ, 81 lots went
the first day and SIS the second. We
thought then that we had done great
things in making such large sale.
Rutters Band was here from Union
town. Excursions came In over the
river there being more boats at the
wharf than there has been before or
since at any one time. Special trains
were run on the rail road and one OF
the largest crowds ever seen in the
town attended the sale.
Dr. /. G. White bought the first two
lots in Beechurst paying $500 each for
them. The prices paid ranged from
$135 to $40. All those who invest
ed have made money.
At the time that this sale took
place there was much doubt expresse
at the future of Morgantowu. But
few men believed that the town would
ever amount TO anything. At pres
ent the knockers are in a small and
rapidly decreasing minority and they
never were in worse odor than at the
present time.
Every one expects the town TO be-
come big city before great many
years. There is no reason why it
should not do so. Every element OF
strength is to be found here. AS long
as the country is developing and as
long aslthe resources and advantages of
the Monongahela Valley count for
anything, Morgantown will be grow
ing.
Col w. O. Beckenbaugh of Balti-
timore was auctioneer for the first
sale of lots. This sale together with
the Sabraton sale are the only auction
sales ever held in the town.
The nine years that have elapsed
since the first sale have witnessed
many changes One would not rec
ognize the town as as the same
place if not familiar with the
history of the stirring times which
have interviewed.
Daily new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1897-1906, 1902-09-11

Sabraton is destined to become
one of the residence portion of the
town. 1t will provide homes for
the vast army of working people
who will invade the city to make
their homes here.
The addition lies just outside OF
the city limits It will provide an
ideal site for such a purpose as men
toned above
There is no longer any doubt in
the minds of any one that Morgan
town is to become big city. The
faith that her people have in this
fact is best shown by their invest
ment of good hard money in the sale
of Wednesday.
Knockers and calamity howlers
are discredited and have taken to
the timber. The city is growing
very fast but all records established
in the past are to be shattered so
badly that they will be forgotten in
the expansion which is just now
coming on us.
The sale at Sabraton was manao
ed by c. w. Arnett of Fairmont and
Russell L. Morris OF Morgantown.
The property was owned by Hon
George c. Sturgiss of Morgantown.
In April he bought the Addison
farm for $4,000 The addition to
which all attention just now is di
rected contained but a portion of
the farm This sale will net hand
some profit TO the owner and man
ayers of the sale.
The coming of the six big plants
to the Decker's creek valley will
sienalize the greatest growth and
expansion that we have ever wit
messed. There is nothing ahead OF
Morgantown but prosperity and
those who have failed to get on the
band wagon at the oprortune time
will be sorry for the failure
Substantial people with plenty of
money are behind the movement and
it is bound to meet with large and
ever increasing degree OF success.
Junkins band furnished the mus.
ic for the sale, returning home to
Fairmont at night. Their presence
added much to the delights of the
day and every one saw them 90 with
regret,
Lunches and refreshments were
provided by the managers of the
sale and every one was carefully
looked after all day by them.
A comparison of the sale at Sab
ration and the one in Seneca of nine
years ago will provide much food
tor thought and will cause cheerful
glow to prevade the breasts of all
who are interested in the advance
ment of the city.

No portion of town offers such ex-

face beautiful view, they are well
located, have every modern conven
fence in the way of water, gas and
sewerage. The trolley line runs
through the addition. The Wire
Glass factory and Pump Station ad

the employees of these plants are in
great demand. The lots are sold on

prove more profitable to investors.
