cahontas Lake Dam.
A public meeting will be held in
the Board of Aldermen rooms next
Tuesday evening to arrange for the
raising of the necessary money for
the rebuilding of the Pocahontas
Lake dam. 1t is very much desired
that all who are interested in this
proposition should be present, as the
arrangements for the rebuilding OF
the dam must be made soon or not
at all.
If the dam is rebuilt and lake
remade it will be done in proper
manner. The weeds will all be re-
moved and the bed of the lake cleared
up and the shores of the remade lake
kept clean and decent.
Every one who is interested in
having place for skating, bathing,
boating or fishing should attend the
meeting next Tuesday evening and
do what he can to help the project

public had long eyed this half ton Of coal

at the same time to help out ten families
who are suffering as d result of the search
