CHILLY
Was the Reception Given TO tine
Circuit Court.
Gas Off and Court House Was
Freezing.
Grand Jury Called and Major Lang
Made Foreman.

Judge John w. Mason and the re-
mainder of the circuit court received
a very chilly reception Tuesday morn
ing. They found the atmosphere too
cold to do business and adjourned the
court without organizing until 2
O'Clock in the afternoon, at which
time the grand Jury was called 10 the
box and formed. He then adjourned
them until 8 o'clock next morning to
deliver the charge. The cause of the
Inconvenience was that the gas in the
home company's pipe on Court street
went of at o'clock and refused to
operate. BY diligent effort the defect
was found in aioint, where the pipe
extends from Main street and at Q
o'clock or shortly afterward the repair
was made. In some manner dirt had
gotten through the joint and stopped
up the pipe.
The following are the members of
the grand jury:
L. L. Lang, foreman; Camden Som
mers, George H. Berry, a. w. Davis,
John W. Fox, E. K. Stout, Lindsey

ACHIEVEMENT
BY Miss Harrison In Art Attracts
Attention.
Washington Papers Make Very
Complimentary Compliments.

The Washington, D. G. Evening
Star of Saturday says:
about thirty years ago-a great inn
petus was given local art by the trus-
tees of the corcoran Gallery granting
students permission to copy in the
gallery three days week. At that
time there were really no other facili-
ties for studying in this city. There
we're no established schools; no casts
and no models to be had; indeed, 1t
was even difficult to obtain artists,
materials quickly. This privilege was
therefore great boon, and in those
earlier days some excellent, faithful
copies were made of the various paint
ings; but with the formation of the
school the majority OF the copylsts
who possessed talent and had worked
with the purpose of gaining knowledge
and skill were absorbed, and since
then most. of the copies have been but
feeble limitations, though sufficiently
correct to be allowed to pass by the
examining committee. Within the
last week, however, a notably fine
copy has been completed. 1t is OF Du.
pres Pond by the Great Oak" and is
the work of Miss Harrison Of West
Virginia, a student in the school.
The original is one of the strongest
and most important pictures in the
gallery, and to reproduce it was an
ambitious undertaking, but Miss Har-
rison has more than succeeded. She has
caught the spirit OF the painting, as
well as the painters vigorous tech
nique, and has made a copy not I'M
worthy of the master himself. The
practice of copying is a rule discour-
aged by the director of the gallery and
the instructors OF the school, but in
this instance all unite in commenda-
tion."
The Washington Post of the same
date says:
Miss E. NJ. Harrison, one of the
most skillful copyists, has recently
completed a very remarkable copy or
Dupre's famous landscape at the Cor
coran Gallery. The broad heavy load.
ed canvas is very difficult thing to
render, because it must he done with
courage and dash. The usual copyist
stroke, precise,clean and careful, would
never reproduce this forceful picture,
and to see copyist and a woman
launch out in this bold way and sue
coed naturally makes Miss Harrison's
achievement notable"
Miss Harrison is daughter of
Judge Thomas W. Harrison of clarks-
burg.

Other Coal Properties Will 90 Into
the Big Merger. Such as Century
and Georges Creek Cos.
Pennsylvania Railroad Company Will Issue $780,
100000 of New Stock to Acquire
Soft Coal Properties.


Baltimore, Jan 13.-1t is reported
that the Century Coal Company and
the Georges Creek Coal and Iron
Company are to be Included in the
practical merger between the Consoli-
dation Coal Company, the Fairmont
Coal Company and the Somerset Goal
Company. It is said negotiations are
going on for the purchase by the al
lied corporations of the controlling In
terest in large coal properties in West
Virginia. So far as can be learned
nothing has been done yet to connect
the Century and Georges Creek Com
panies with the merged concerns.
President O. w. Watson was in New
York Sunday, and Mr.. @. X. Lord,
chairman of the board of directors of
the Consolidation Company, said he
had heard nothing of move to COM
hine the Georges Greek Company with
his company. Heavy stockholders in
the Consolidation also have large in
terests in the Century and Georges
Creek Companies.
Mr.. Watson has advanced the
wages of the miners employed by the
Fairmont Coal Company in the Fair
mont region 10 per cent, the rise TAX
ing effect January /. 1t benefits
about 1000 men. The anthracite
miners made an effort to organize
these men during the recent strike
but failed, and Mr.. watson's action is
in the nature of a material acknowl.
edgement of their refusal to join the
union.
The merg rof the three companies
gives the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
assurance of continued control of the
softcoal transportation business, as lit
practically dominates the Consolida-
tion Coal Company. Coal and coke
constitute about so per cent. of the
tonnage handled by the road.
1t is also expected that President
Watson viii considerably increase the
combined output of the allied COM
panies and that hereafter there will
be less danger of suffering from a soft
coal famine.
The Wall Street Journal saws:
1.-THE control of the Somerset Coal
Company, the Falrmont Coal Com
pany, the Clarksburg Fuel Company
and the Consolidation Coal Company,
OF Maryland, has now been secured by
Pennsylvania interests.
1.-THE Baltimore and Ohio already
controls the Consolidation Coal Com.
pany of Maryland. 1t is stated that
the other three coal companies men,
toned may be turned into the Consoli-
dation Coal Company, of Maryland.
In order to acquire these properties,
the Pennsylvania, it is said, will issue
z $50, 900, 900 of It's own new stock for
the purpose. The ownership of these
properties win be lodged in the treas.
ury of the Baltimore and Ohio Com.
