LOST FIRST GAME.
Varsity Lads Downed In Game Strug-
gle with Georgetown on Wednesday.

| Special to the New Dominion
WASHINGTON, d. c., May l.
Georgetown proved too much for the
West Virginians yesterday afternoon
and won by score of eight to six.
In the sixth inning six visitors
crossed the home plate and it looked
as if w. V. y. might win but the
chance was lost.
Blewltt, McCabe and Apperlus
were the battery for Georgetown who
put in the South paw pitcher re-
garded as their strongest man.. Bow
man and Shriyer were West Virgin
las battery.
Georgetown made three runs in
the first and fourth innings and two
in the third giving them eight runs.
The visitors made six runs IN the
six innings. The hics were five and
three and the errors two and eight.
The game was extremely fast after
the fourth inning, the visitors play
ing desperate game. The George
town lads had too big lead however
for them to overcome. This after
noon the Varsity will meet Mary
land Agricultural College and is ex
pected to win the game.
Had the visitors played as well
throughout as they did in the Sec
ond and last four innings the result
would have been very different.
The West Virginia University
team will play the Maryland Agri-
cultural College team, at College
Park, Nd, to day, and Friday will
cross bats with the Columbia Uni
versity team, of this city. Midel-
burg, of the West Virginia Universe
ty, had a fall in center field which
gave him a black eye. He was cut
on the cheek bone, under the eye,
and bled freely, but he pl luckily
stayed with the team until the close
of the game.
Senator Scott and Representatives
Doyener and Gaines, with large
delegation of West Virginia residents
here, were among the rooters for the
boys of the West Virginia Universe

ken Home-Prosecution will Follow
Wild Prank of College Boys.
Last night on going home several
boys from town saw youth of about
II lying insensible on the Universe
ty campus. Their first thought was
that he was drunk. In a moment
another of the crowd recognized the
lad and stated that he was never
known to touch liquor.
They made number of efforts to
arouse him but succeeded in getting
no response to their appeals. They
finally heard him say "Sunnyside"
and they started home with him.
When near the end of the Falling
Run bridge he revived enough to
talk.
His first thought was of his moth
er. Don't take me home in this
condition. Mother is very i'll and
the shock will hurt her, Leave me to
recover somewhat They set him
down and he regained his faculties
finally going home where he told his
story.
1t seems that he had been to pray
er meeting and afterwards not find
ing his father had started home. He
was pursued by a large number OF
boys.
At the campus one of them sud
denly seized him and the crowd be-
gan to beat him severely. Finally
he knew nothing and only regained
bis senses when he was being carried
home. He says that he called to
several people who were near by for
help but they did not heed him.
Today the lad is very sore and
bruised. His father is highly indi-g
nant and has related his story to
the prosecuting attorney. Warrants
will be issued for the fellows in the
crowd and they will be prosecuted
to the extent of the law.
President Purinton is out of town
and has not been notified of the oc-
currence The father of the lac re-
lated the story of the outrage to
representative of this paper but re-
quested that the names OF both the
hazed and hazers be suppressed I'M
TIL legal proceedings had been in
stituted.

CHANCES HANDS.
City Government no W in Hands of new
FATHERS Police again sworn in.

The City OF Morgantown is now I'M
der new management. The reins OF
government were transferred on
Thursday May first. On Wednesday
evening the old council held its last
meeting and approved the minutes of
the meeting OF Monday night. No
other business was transacted
The new city officers have take n
charge of affairs like they have beenof-
fee holders for years. The police force
is still serving although some OF them
had an idea their terms expired at
midnight last night.
This is mistaken idea however.
They are to serve until their success
ors are chosen. All OF them have
been sworn in again as an additional
precaution.

TO BUILD A PEST HOUSE.
County Court will be asked to
Take Action.
Countless Expense and danger will be
Avoided by This Means-Court called
Together by the Prosecuting Attor-
ney-No new Cases of Smallpox.

The county court is in session this
afternoon having been called together
to discuss ways and means for fight
ing small pox which has been getting
busy over In Cheat Neck. The senti-
ment OF the public and Of the Prose
cutting Attorney Is in favor of erecting
a pest house.
1t is believed generally that the
disease may be fought with better
prospects Of success with a pest house
scheme than to allow the patients to
remain at home. At the same time
It will be cheaper in the long run than
the plan of guarding every house
where the disease breaks out.
The trials and fluctuations of other
counties in fighting the disease is be-
ing laid before the court and they
will no doubt order a pest house to be
4 built.
Reports that smallpox had crossed
the river reached town on Wednesday
evening. A case was reported from
Tyrone and DR.. Warren went out tc
Investigate it.
DR.. Warren found man at the
place who had been exposed but the
suspect, O. Ell. Walker, agreed to iso.
late himself until the two weeks dan
ger period had passed and he has gone
home quietly.
The doctor expresses himself as
heartily in favor OF pest house and
also house of detention in which
people who expose themselves may be
quartered. This is believed will stop
the needless exposure which has been
going on over Cheat.
No new cases have appeared since
Wayne Blosser became sick and DR..
Warren is feeling better over the stu
alton. He has just returned from
Cheat where he has been since last
evening

INDUSTRIAL NOTES.
Morgantown has Lost the Big
Steel plant.
b. and o. has Refused to give the
Proper Kind of Rates to this Concern
unless They will Locate on that Road
Coal Mines not Yet In 0p Grafton.

1t had practically been decided that
a big steel plant would locate on the
M. & K. short distance above town.
This plant would have employed about
four hundred men. 1t would have
come but for one thing and that thing
was the B. & o. railroad would not
make 1t rates If it went TO the NJ s.
X.
The representatives Of the company
were informed that If they located on
the B. & o. they could have Pitts
burg rates but il they went to the
M. & K. they could not get them.
This prevented the enterprise from
accepting the location decided upon.
They may be located at some other
point near town however.
The A. G. Fulmer coal mine near
town would be ready to start ship
ping coal IL the siding were complet-
ed to the opening. This will be finish
ed within the next ten days. Fifty
thousand tons OF coal will be sent out
during the first year and this is ex-
pected to be double during the second
year of its operation. It had been
hoped to have the siding done by to-
day but number of causes has held
it back.
Rumors that another planning mill
had located up the creek were run
down by this paper and were found to
be untrue.
Work on the Marilla Glass factory is
being pushed. There are a great
many men employed in this and the
factory will soon being to take shape
Several small buildings have been
put up 10 be used as offices and for
other purposes in connection with the
work Of building the factory.

Invited the President.

A special from Washington says:
Senator Scott today extended an
invitation TO President Roosevelt to
attend the game of baseball Wednes-
day between the West Virginia Uni.
versity team and the Georgetown
University club. The President said
he could not possibly attend, but he
felt sure it would be an entertaining
match. The Georgetown University
boys are top notches on the diamond
and the West Virginia colony here
will doubtless turn out strong force
of rooters for the visitors.

Minister C.. B. Hart persona
non grata.
Government at B0gota does not want
the West Virginian returned to
that c0untry-AlIegation made In
reference to the matter-Some doubt
Expr essed as to its Weight.

Expressed as to Its Weight.
WASHINGTON, ID. G. May H.
Charles B. Hart, of Wheeling, United
States minister to Columbia, has been
declared persona non grata by the
Bogota government. Official notifica-
tion has been given to the president
that Columbia finds herself unable to
longer treat with Mr. Hart, and she
desires that another citizen of the
United States be accredited as minis
ter in his place.
Recognizing the undoubted right of
Columbia to insist upon having in
her capital diplomatic representative
agreeable to her, the president prob
ably will not permit Mr.. Hart to re-
turn to his post
Colombia's objection to Mr.. Hart is
based primarily upon her belief that
he has been giving assistance to the
insurrection. That government also
has transmitted charges arising out OF
difficulties which the minister has
had with his landlord, and the con-
nection Of Mr.. Harris son with bus
mess firm IN Bogota.
Mr.. Hart arrived in Washington a
few days ago on leave ofabsence. He
called at the White House and State
department., and explained to the
President and Secretary Hay from his
point OF view the facts Of the trouble.
Officials Of the administration are dis
inclined to speak about the charges
made against Minister Hart. 1t is
learned, however, that the Colombia
authorities believe that the American
legation has been used by the insur-
gents for getting information.
Mr.. Hart is now at his home in
West Virginia and will return to
Washington to futher consult with
the President and Secretary Hay. He
is eager to be allowed to return to
Bogota on the expiration of his leave
OF absence. The administration has
no wish, however, to force upon
Columbia a man who may not be
agreeable.
