MRS. ARMSTRONG DEAD.
End Came to Lovable Grafton Lady on
Thursday Night.

) Mrs Robert A. Armstrong of
Grafton is dead. The end came at
ten o'clock on Thursday night. Mrs
Armstrong has been quite low for
several days and her death was not
unexpected but her host of friends
here are greatly shocked at the sad
event.
Mrs. Armstrong was Miss Carrie
Dent, daughter of Judge and Mrs.
M. II. Dent. She was stuGe Mt at
the University and graduated with
high honors. Shortly after her
graduation she was united in mar
riage with Prof. Robert A. Arm
strong who is one of the most popu-
lar members OF the faculty. A
daughter was born to this union.
No announcement of the funeral
has been received here. Prof Arm
strong and tue others bereaved haye
the sincerest sympathy of every one
in their bereavement.
A peculiar coincidence in the
death of Mr. Armstrong is the fact
that Mrs Charles Montgomery who
bore the same name, Carrie Dent,
before her marriage is at the point
OF death from fever at he, home Ia
the southern part of the state She
is an old Morgantown girl.

Meetings at the Baptist Church.

The meetings at the Baptist church
yesterday were of great spiritual pow
err The message of the afternoon
was especially helpful and comforting
to those who have loved ones on the
other side. At the evening services
there were more converts and more
additions to the church. Those who
were present will not forget the ser
mon they heard. 1t was brim full of
love to lost souls-some such love as
Jesus had when he looked out upon
those who were perishing and who
would not come to Him that they
might have life.
Today at $3.50 the subject will be,
"What Would Jesus Do?n-a special
conservation service to which all are
cordially invited. Tonight DR.. Bruner
will preach his last sermon among us
at this time. Come and hear him,
and help make the meeting the best
of all the series.

COY. WHITE SPEAKS,
He Dismounts Some Heavy Ar

Gets Set Back Another Day.
CHARLESTON, w. Va, Feb. g.
Governor White COPIED this alter
noon with the heaviest legal ar
tillery the railroad corporations
could gather in the State and routed
them, in the judgment of the large
crowd that assem- 5led in the Senate
chamber to hear discussed the APP
pointment of a railroad commission
before the joint House and Senate
Railroad Committees.
In a plain, effective talk at the
close of the shrewd addresses oil
half dozen railroad attorneys, in
Guiding Reese Blizzard, Edgar p.
Rucker AMI Fl. G. Simms, the Gov
ernor took the floor. He said the
reasons for his recommendation for
a railroad commission were the re-
snlt of numerous complaints from
the people, shippers of coas and other
commodities, as well as from one of
the most prominent citizens in the
State, reference to United States
Senator Elkins.
Then the Governor went on to say
that if the railroad commission
would be futile, as claimed by the
attorneys, why did the railroads fear
it and assemble such powerful legal
array? ssThese trained advocates
can make black white and white
black" said the Governor, tut you
can't deceive the people with official
facts. We are in the dark in trying
to assess the railroads fairly. Knowl.
edge is power and the peoble are
entitled to the knowledge that a
commission will make
Governor White discounted the
statements that the commission 5
creation would impair railroad de
velopment He cited reports Of
discrimination by the Baltimore d
Ohio against connecting lines, and
produced other information as To
hardships inflicted on shippers, and
said that the Legislature should pre-
vent injustice between tbs poor man
and the powerful corporations.
As 1.-The peoples advocate, . the
Governor threw his heart into his
words, and the effect was impressive,
there being tendency to applaud
him. At his close more rairoad
attorneys begged an opportunity to
unlimber their guns, and adjourn
ment was taken for this purpose to
tomorrow evening.
The Wheeling City charter bill
was taken from its long sleep in the
committee pigeon hole and given its
first reading in the House today, but
press of routine matters delayed the
Augusta county bill another day.

The Glee and Mandolin Clubs OF the

the curtain down. Standing room
was In demand and many people stood
through the long entertainment,
Miss Hartigan as usual made a big
hit. She as encored repeatedly by
the audience which grew enthusiastic
every time that she appeared. She
gets better and better on the mando-
lin and her rendition of the numbers
was every thing which could be asked.
Dean Wrightson added TO the plea
sure of the occasion by couple of So

ter singing one of the numbers.
The Glee Club is very good. They ].
were called back several times and re-
sponded to the appeal while at other
times they concluded that they had
sung enough for once.
A handsome sum was realized by the
boys as result of the concert. They
are very much pleased with
the prospects for their tour
OF the state. They will be gone for
week and will visit a number OF the
principal towns of the state. In all
of them they should have good crowds.
Those who go will enjoy the concerts.

CEMETERY ASSOCIATION
Meeting held at the office of Cox
and Baker.

Plans are on Foot for Many improve
ments In the City of the Sleeping
Dead-Lot Owners are warned
Against Possible Sale of their lots
| Unless they Record Deeds.
A meeting of the officers of the
Oak Grove Cemetery was held at
the offices of Cox a. Baker, last
night. S. A. Posten was elected
president pro tenn lie the absence of
DR.. ID. B. Purinton. David Chad
wick, permanent secretary, was
present, Jcs. NJ. Wood, Mrs.
Mary E. Brown, George c. Baker,
Prof S. B. Brown, Prof. w. 2.
Wiley and others were present.
David Chadwick, who was appointed
a committee to secure bids for
hedge fence around the cemetery
grounds, made report and submitted
several bids, and on motion David
Chadwick and Joseph M. Wood
were appointed committee to pur-
chase proper hedge for the grounds
and to have the grounds prepared
and the hedge properly set out this
spring, with full power to act in the
premises
This will make beautiful fence
and the committee was instructed to
buy hedge three years old to set
out, which, in few years, will make
splendid fence and greatly beauti-
fy the grounds.
On motion S. A. Poster and Rufus
West were appointed a committee to
investigate the subject OF gates aud
entrances to the cemetery grounds
The object of the officers of the
corporation is TO secure beautiful
design for the lower gate and
handsome design for the upper gate
as well, OF iron, with the words,
Oak Grove Cemetery over the en-
trance in neat design.
On motion it was ordered chat S.
B. Brown, Joseph NJ Wood and w.
z. Wiley be appointed committee
to secure bids for the construction
of a neat three roomed cottage for
the sexton, to be built ON the
grounds
On motion it was ordered that the
secretary give notice to all parties
who have purchased lots, to record
their deeds or report to the treasur
er, George G. Baker, if they have
not secured deeds, otherwise it was
ordered that the treasurer proceed
to sell any or all of those lots for
which no deeds have beenymade and
rerecorded.
This may embarrass several peo-
pie if they do not record their deeds
but many of the lot owners have not
recorded them and the officers of the
association cannot tell whether
lot has been sold or not. There are
many people who have no deeds.
The lots will be resold unless re-
port is made by every one who has
purchased lot heretofore.
These lots that used to sell for $50
and $50 now sell for $3.50, so it is i'm
portant for all persons who have pur-
chased lots to report to the treasurer
at their earliest opportunity.
The parties who owe on lots should
pay up this spring as the officers need
the money to fix up the grounds and
beautify the same, and to build cot
tage for the sexton and to run water
UP into the grounds, also to make the
fence around the cemetery and to
make macadam driveway.

citizen of West Virginia devoutly
hopes will continue says the Wheel

This like almost every other
State institution. however, is threat
ened with having it's usefulness cur
tailed through the failure OF the last
Legislature to make proper appro
priation to meet the expenses of the
summer quarter" the result being
salary of $4,000 due professors
and instructors on account OF said
summer quarter. This departure
has since been abandoned, although
the value of the summer course es
pecially to the teachers of the
State. who made up three fourths of
its students, is dwelt upon by Presi
dent Purinton who earnestly urges
its continuance, which he engages
to undertake il the State will fur
nish an annual fund of $4,000 for
the purpose. Which by the way, is
a good deal to hope in view OF the
present strapped condition OF the
Stat e, which is now wrestling with
total deficiency of over half mil
lion.
Otherwise the University is in
fiourishing condition. The report
