The Farmers Institute last
Thursday was a success from a
benefactorial standpoint of view,
as all those present were enthusi-
astic and will no doubt profit much
by their attendance, although only
a few were present during the day
session, but the house was crowded
at night. Good music was had and
an interesting Grafton by Miss May
Grim upon the culture of flower;
also good lecture by J. R. Wells,
of Long Reach, and profitable
lecture by Mr.. Flick, OF Jackson
county, who was here to organize
grange. He Is speaker of no
mean talent and gave many reasons
why the much talked of "tax re-
form" should meet the approval of
the farmer.

There are but few patches OF
good timber left In Tyler county
and one of our land owners In
speaking of the sale of the remain
der of his big white oaks, says IT
was timely as nearly all the ma
tured trees upon being cut up are
found to be decayed at the heart,
whether from some sort of disease

something like IS or 100 years to

Great Musical Attraction Causing Fay.
erable Comment In New York.

A private letter was received from
Sidley Lloyd Wrightson at noon to
day. Part oft is of general interest.
This part is as follows:
1t is the universal opinion in mu-
steal circles in New York City that
the Strauss Herbert Concert on
March 14th is the most stupendous
undertaking for a city of 10000 peo-
pie ever heard Of. 1t is getting Nor
gantown talked of, is written up in
all the musical journals and the
New York Sun had line up about
it.
From an advertising standpoint for
the good of the School of Music, the
University, of the city, its simply in
estimable. People who had never
heard of the city speak of
it now and / assure you there
is nothing the town has ever had that
equals what this one concert will do
for it, | was favored today with a
picture of Strauss and his wife sent

Y0sT TO OUR FOOTBALL TEAM.
Rumors Adoat in Football World
That lie VIII Engage In Business.

Yost, the tied foot ball coach,
who will at once begin getting the
University of Michigan eleven in
shape, may quit the gridiron after
this season. Though Yost has been
the most successful coach ever
produced, he may quit the foot ball
field and engage IN business.
On this subject Yost will not say
a word more than II will be with
Michigan according to contract this
year
1t is believed that at the close of
the present season he will announce
to foot ball people that he will be
with them no more-except in spirit.
Yest has made too much money in
speculations to stay with the hard
job of coaching much longer. Re
Gently he went down o Philadelphia
and visited the training quarters of
the Pennsylvania University team.
1t is asserted that Yost was not long
in gaining some valuable information
about the plans Of the Pennsys, and
their interpretations of the new
rules.

lation.
A special from Baltimore throws
more light on the racket between
the b. 81 O. trainmen and the offici-
ais. 1t is AS follows:
President of the Trainm an, John
Bubb, stated last night that if the
Baltimore & Ohio management
failed to meet the demands of the
committee at 10 clock this morn
ing every wheel on the road would
be tied up in SO hours.
There are 40 separate items, =
said Budd, sin our list of grievances.
OF these I39 are of a minor charae-
ter, but there are three items at
which the corporation banks and
which we consider most important.
Our ultimatum is that they must ac.
cept. They are:
"First-W switching overtime
the men shall be paid both for the
amount specified in the agreement
for switching and for overtime as
well.
aSecond-The men demand that
an extra wage scale be applied to
all double heading; that is, when
one crew is compelled to shandlo the
freight cars of train pulled by two
engines. The work is extra.
'sThird-The men demand that ii
be no longer compulsory on them to
join the relief department They
object to the way in which it il
managed and do not want to be
compelled to insure on the terms
offered This demand is final.
"We do not need to wait for vote
before ordering a strike. We were
authorized before coming to take
action in case just demands were
not acceded to."
The Baltimore d Ohio officials
minimize the trouble and claim thai
it can easily be settled In the same
breath, however, they say the mer
are an ugly mood. Third Vice
President Potter of the B. & o. sale

Happenings in and about Noun

Fairmont Has Jar Through Arrest
of Young 6irl-Terrible immortality
is Being raeticed-Camping Club
Has Narrow Escape : iks Play Ball.
The arrest of Haze MCGOWAN OF
Bridgeport, at Fairmont. revealed
condition of affairs that has shocked
some OF those who have been TOO
blind TO see il in Fairmont. She
was arrested for being drunk. In Il
statement made to the police she
stated that there were many places
in Fairmont where young girls are
enticed to go astray.
Young men and girls get drunk
together and a party is frequently
made up to have time. The effect
on the morals of those participating
is obvious.
Hazel said that she had been in
Morgantown about a week ago and
had remained for several days She
was sent to Wheeling to reforma-
tory as she was only II years of age.
A special from Sutton says that
six members of the Wanego camp
ing club were nearly drowned in
Elk river last night. They had
started to move their camp across
the river when their canoe was
upset
All were thrown into the water.
They lost all their equipment and
barely escaped with their lives. 1t
will probably put an end to the trip.
The Morgantown Elks came up at
noon and at three o'clock marched
to the ball field behind the Junkins
band and accompanied by the Fair
mont Elks. Both teams are heavily
| loaded and the contest will be a
sharp one This is the decisive
game and the members of the op
posing teams are anxious to win.

HARRISON LEAVES.
u. S. Road Expert Ordered TO
Arkansas.
Model Road on West Side Must be Fin
ished by County Gourt-What Has
Been Accomplished Court Don't
Want Road Machine.


Charles II. Harrison, the United
States road expert who has had charge
of the building of the model road on
the West Side, has received orders
from Washington to pull up stakes
here aud move to Arkansas. This
means that there will be no more road
built here under the direction of the
government. This county court will
have charge of whatever is done in
the future.
Mr.. Harrison will make all arrange
ments to move all the machinery,
This will require ten days or two
weeks. Tnen he will leave for Bates
vile, Arkansas, where the govern
ment has undertaken to build some
road. Later, he will have charge Of
similar work at Fort Smith, Sebartian
county Ark.
Mr.. Harrison is ordered away at
this time because he has been here
much longer now than the bureau at
Washington can afford to furnish a
a man. He says the work was drag
ged along in a most unsatisfactory
manner, chiefly on account of the de-
lay in getting material. What has
been done, is done well, but more
would have been accomplished had
the material been furnished.
AS it is, one quarter of a mile has
been finished, end is triumph Of
road building The whole stretch
from Riverside to Granville has been
graded and is ready for the stone. The
road has been widened, and if properly
finished, will be in every way equal
to what has already been done.
The big road roller has been offere
to the County County for 81, 900. This
roller was furnised by the manufae-
turers free OF charge, simply as an adj
vertisemenS. Last June, 1T was Of
fered to the court for the regular sell
ing price of $500 The court would
not buy at that time, but gave some
intimation that it would later. Judge
Harner favored the proposition, and
it was understood that Mr.. Core did
also. Jennewine was out aud out
against it.
In August, the roller was refused.
Mr.. Core had experienced change OF
heart, saying his constituents were
opposed to it. Mr.. Sheetz, the agent
came back at this term, and offered
the roller for 81, $50. Mr.. Core still
objected to buying and Sheetz offered
the machine for 81, 900.
A Pittsburg firm has an option on
it for 81, $50, but rather than ship it
away and give the good roads move
ment black eye, it was offered to
the court for $3.50 less. This was also
refused.
Mr. Harner thinks it great mis-
take not to buy the roller. One will
be needed, if the West Side road is
finished, and it will cost nearly twice
as much as it can be bought for now.
The adverse members Of the court
are depending on the vehicles to put
the stone and gravel in condition.
Mr.. Harner says this can never be
done, and if Monongalia expects to
have any more good road, a big roller
will have to be bought to build them,
