PLENTY OF GAS
New Well on Garrison Farm
Turned into Mains.
Rock Pressure of 2S3 Pounds-Pres-
sure of 1876 Outside Valyes-A Little
Comedy on the HilI-Gas Pipes Con-
nected and Disconnected.

About three o'clock Wednesday
afternoon gas fires III Morgantown
blazed up, and people who had been
shlvering in the cold for several
days had to turn the valves to keep
from roasting. There was plenty OF
gas, in fact, people were reminded OF
conditions a few years ago when the
question was not one of getting
enough, but trouble in the matter of
having plenty Of gas this winter.
A rather amusing comedy was en-
acted IN South Park the other day,
in which J. W. Wiles, and the Union
Utility company were The principal
actors, with eight or nine shiverlng
families for support. The people in
question live on one inch gas line
on the top of the South Park hill.
They all signed the new contract for
gas, but were not getting enough for
the kind of weather that prevailed.
An inch main runs out Grant
street aud stops Mr.. Wiles is on the
end OF this. Another inch line runs
around the streets, within short
distance OF the end of the line referred
to above: Mr.. Wiles Connected these
two lines in order to form a circuit,
aud the gas pressure increased.
This was done without the COM
papy's permission. When they found
it out, they tore up the line,
breaking the connection. Then the
protest came from the shivering FAM
lilies and there was trouble. The
company finally reformed the connec-
ton, and all is now lovely.

Virginia, today, TO prosecute a case.
which II pushed to the extremity, will
cost the offender something like &c.,
900. The story OF this haul Is as in
tersstlng as the first blood and thund-
er story to boy yearning to be an
outlaw.
Last Saturday, Mr.. White was In
Fairmont, and as usual, had his eye
open for offenders against the game
law. He spent an hour OF TIVE at the
B. & o. station looking for eonsiga-
ments OF game billed for points out OF
the state. When the Monongah train
pulled in, he saw eight or ten shoe
boxes and several barrels unloaded.
The stuff was all marked poultry
and was consigned to a Pittsburg
commission house. 1t had been SHIP
ped from Addison, but the name OF
the shipper was not given, only his
initials being used. The warden look
ed the shipment over, and saw the
edge OF pheasant's wing protruding
through crack in one OF the boxes
The barrels aud boxes were opened
by the warden and sheriff there, and the
formers suspicion proved to be true.
Carefully concealed beneath lot OF
dressed chickens, they found 2Ss quail
aud % pheasants. Besides this there
were 500 rabbits aud 200 squirrels.
The quail and pheasants were confis-
Gated, and shipped back to Fairmont.
The rabbits and squirrels, not being
contraband, were allowed to 20 on TO
Pittsburg.
MI. White came to Morgdntown
and brought rs quail and half dozen
pheasants with him, just to show his
friends what that many birds togeth-
er looked like. Heleft last night for
Addison, taking the game with him,
TO prosecute the shipper.
lie has letter from Attorney
General Romeo II. Freer, In which it
is set forth that the shipment Of a
single bird constitutes an otfense, that
is, the shipper can be fined the full
amount for every piece OF game in any
shipment. II there Il one piece Of
game, there is one offense, II there are
Two, three or hundred, there are
two, three or hundred offenses.
The case OF the Addison shipper
makes him liable in $40 offenses In all.
The minimum foe ia each case il $40.
The prosecuting attorneys fee is $40.
The Justices fee is $3.50. This man
is liable for fine amounting to about
$9755, or 300 DAYS in jail, OF course
this amount will not be assessed
against him, but he will have 10 pay
heavily for breaking the law.
Last Saturday a week, Warden
White caught small shipment OF
game 10 Fairmont. Four pheasants,
consigned by two different parties were
cobtiscated. The shippers lived at
Shinnston. Mr. White prosecuted
the case before Harrison county
justice and each offender was fined $40
and costs. He means to enforce the
laws so far as is In his power and
should receive the assistance OF all
law abiding citizens.

The seventeen per cent cut in
wages made by the Prick Coke Com
pany yesterday, which will be fol-
lowed by similar cuts by other com
panies, is about the most unwelcome
evidence of dull times that has
been forced upon this section during
the present depression. The cut was
not arbitrary, but was absolutely
necessary on account of market con-
ditlons. The decrease in wages will
be felt keenly throughout the Mon
ongahela valley.

C. Y. BISHOPS ESTATE.
Attorneys at Loss as to What Became
Of it-S6OOO or $4,000 Dropped here.

ofit-S6OOO or $4,000 Dropped here.
Attorneys Hatfield, Stewart, Corb;n
and Glasscock have returned from
Kingwood, where they were engaged
Yesterday In presenting their claims
against the estate of Charles
Y. Bishop, bankrupt, before
Geo. Shirley, referee in bankruptcy.
Some fifteen attorneys representing a
large number OF creditors were pres
ent, and Mr.. Bishops affairs we're
pretty well aired. He seems to be in
the best of spirits over the state OF az
fairs, and grew quite jocose Oh several
occasions during the examination.
The wondor among the lawyers Is
how Mr.. Bishop got away with $780,
900 aud ran deeply into debt besides.
They can only figure up$7000 or $4,000
that he dropped here and about the
same amount in kiDgwood. The
rest is gone, and there is nothing to
indicate the course 1t took. Among
the papers introduced at the hearing,
were a number of checks for 500 and
5000 drawn to himself. The estate is
not settled yet, but it IS thought II
will pay about 35 cents on the dollar.
