Quick Work by the Wabash.

FAIRMoNT, w. Va, Feb. THE
new company recently organized here
to build the Fairmont and ColfaS
Short Liue Road, has been knocked
out Of existence by the slick doings OF
company, supposed to be the Wa
bash railroad. The new company had
its capital, $4,000 subscribed, the
charter applied for, and the route
staked off, but for some reason had
not placed the writings on the County
Clerks books. The Wabash people
learned this fact and rushed seventeen
surveyors in here at night, and, diYid-
Jog the corps, began the survey before
daylight and had it completed 10 few
hours. A copy OF it was speedily
rushed to the Clerks Office here.

A G. Field believes that in real hu-
NOR there is something higher than
mere amusement, something that
touches the heart, refreshes the soul
and improves the intellect. lie be-
lieves that he who has by head or
hand, lightened an ounce weight off
the load Of human misery, has not
disappointed the purpose of his crea-
ton. For these reasons Mr.. Field al
ways selects with the greatest care
the big company Of comedians, which
are always an adjunct of The AL G..
Field Greater Minstrels.
Headed by the greatest living ex-
ponent Of the negro character and
dialect AL G. Field, the company of
fun makers also includes the ever eff
fervescent Tommy Donnelly, who, as
fixture of the al G. Field forces,
has created tidal wave of laughter
from ocean to ocean by his witticisms,
and his inimitable way OF expressing
them. Then there is John N. p.
Phillips, that somewhat different
comedian, Of whom it has been truly
said: ''To see him is to experience a
sensation of uncomfortable merri-
ment." Others of this happy band,
whose mission in life is to make Others
laugh, are: Doc Quigley, Sam Gold
man, VIM. Murray, Tommy Ayde,
Tommy O'Dell, Billey Cdwley and
Frank Fogerty, all of whom have &C
quired individual reputation of Ma
tional extent in their own distinct
lines of tightening the cares of Others
by merry jest and infectious smile.

HAVING FUN WITH GOODWIN.
"MineraI Water" Forced Down Hrs
Throat by Cow Boy at Charleston.

The following from the Dispa tch
will be read with lots of amusement
by the macy friends Of Mr.. Goodwin
in Morgantown and the county. 1t
was sent from Charleston:
Third House attaches and others
are enjoying story told at the ex-
pense OF Prosecuting Attorney Good
win of Morgantown, who is here fight
ing the Augusta county bill. The
other night he dropped into room 81
at the Ruffner and refused all invita-
tions TO parsake CT the mineral water
on the mantel and sideboard, Now
it happens that Delegate Gregory of
Tyler county among beuntiful sup
ply of clothes has a Texas cowboys
outfit, revolyers, sombrero and so on.
He was prevailed on to arrive on the
ion, bis long hair helping out the eff
feet, and after a preliminary war
whoop he shot a few times at the
chandelier and then drawing his guns
on the amazed Morgantown attorney
said, stranger, you must drink
with me or | shoot" To make a long
story short, Mr. Goodwin coincided
with the cowboys views, for every
body else ia the room seemed TO re-
gard the armed and dangerous looking
visitor as genuine Western despera-
do and tried TO hunt cover under Ia
bles and elsewhere, SO what could the
young man do? Under the circum-
stances Mr.. Goodwin partook OF the
mineral water and the other inmates
also fell 10 line when the co2boy took
another heave at bis cartridge belt.
All got real sociable until the wee
small hours, and it is said that Mr..
Goodwin hasn't yet learned of the
fake.

FIRST BLOOD FOR AUGUSTA.
Motion to Re commit was Lost
by Close Vote
Question Aroused Good Deal of Feel
ing and there were Some Persona IL
ties Scattered About Details of the
Scrap Over the Motion.

Scrap Over the Motion.
The following has been received
from Charleston about the Augusta
county fight The opponents of the
bill hoped to have it sent back to
the committee which had heard but
one side oil it and which had made a
divided report about the bill The
story of how the attempt to re com
NIT it Jared issas follows.
The first blood was drawn in the
Augusta county fight, which came
up in the House this afternoon, on a
motion to recommit on first reading
of the bill. The minority committee
report protesting that only one side
has been heard before the commit
tee, the Warrington lobby. was re-
ceived, asking that the bill be re-
committed in order that the other
side be heard. Mr.. Cunningham
opposed recommittal, urging that
the matter be heard in the hose,
and charged that the object of re-
committal was to kill the bill in
committee Mr. Kenney said the
bill came to the house after ex parte
testimony only was heard, and fav
ored recommittal. Mr. Bowman ar
gued that the provisions OF neither
the constitution nor the code had
been complied with by the people,
asking for the new county, Mr.
Caldwell made a warm speech
against reeommittal Mr. Tregory
chairman of the committee on eoun-
ties, districts and municipalities,
said he did not care for the lobby
from Monongalia, WetzeI and Ma
rion that was opposed to the bill,
declared recommittal was an insult
to him as chairman, and got into
tits with Mr.. Warman, of Monon-
gala, and McNeily, of Marion, who
opposed the bill
Carlin teok Mr. Cunningham to
task for his position against recon-
initial, saying that just the day be-
fore the gentleman from Tucker had
tried strenuously to have several
bills reeommitted Mr. VanSickler,
a member of the committee, denied
that any snap judgment had been
taken by the committee, and de
elared that several days had been
given those opposed to get before
the committee.
Mr.. Stanley, of Marion, denied
holly that recommittal was for the
purpose of delay. He said the chair
man had heard the Warrington
lobby, if he had not heard those OPP
posed to the bill. When the bill
came up in committee, he had not
heard the sentiment of his people.
and asked for time to hear from
them before report was MADE, and
this had been denied him Mr.
Moody, of Ohio, moved the previous
question, and the motion to recon
nit was lost by vote of Sd to 80.
During the debate some equllical
compliments was past, and the Man
nington in the gallery applauded
several times, when points were
scored in their favor, the speaker
calling them down just before the
house adjourned. Five o. the seven
of Marion Wetzel
and Monongalia, voted for recon-
INITIAL, and two against. McNeely

and Snyder, of Monongalia, and
