GLASS FACTORY MAY START.
Seneca and Morgant0Wn are Both
Waiting Signing OF the Scale.

The annual vacation of the glass
workers expires on August third, but
it is not known definitely whether
either the Morgantown or Seneca fac
tories will start on that date.
The Seneca factory was called UP
by phone this morning, and in re-
Spouse to the question as to when they
would start, the answer came they
did not know. When asked for the
reason, the reply was there was none
to give.
Mr. Frey, Of the Morgantown, said
that so far as he knew, the factory
would start off on time. The only
thing that could Interfere was the
signing of the scale. A conference
was being held at Star Island, above
Detroit, and so far as he knew, every
thing was harmonious. The only
hitch had been on the mould-makers
scale. This was left to a vote of the
manufacturers, and if this was settled
satisfactorily, the factory would start.

ture From Tannhauser.
q The fifth and last of the Historical
Lecture Recitals by the faculty OF
the School of Music at Commence
ment Hall last evening was nothing
less than a brilliant triumph for the
artists who participated. The audi
ence nearly filled the hall. Every
number was listened to with rapt
attention and the applause was of
the spontaneous, persistent kind
that indicates the genuine pleasure
felt at an excellent production.
Dean Wrightson in opening the
program made some very important
announcements. To the audience,
the most important one was, that
Mr.. Lawrence and Mr.. Kaspar would
return to, Morgantown next summer.
This came as a surprise, and was
greeted with applause Dean Wright
son said that an effort would be
made to get Richard Strauss and
his orchestra here for one Of the
four faculty : concerts during the
! coming year. This was big under
taking, but the attempt would be
made nevertheless. The course, ex-
elusive of Strauss, would cost over
$500, and he hoped that when the
season tickets were placed on sale at
$3.50 each, the public would buy
literally.
For the first time during the sum.
mer recitals, an American composer
was introduced. Mr. Lawrence
played two selections from Edward
MacDowell, the witches Dance
and the SHADOW Dance" Both were
greatly enjoyed by the audience, the
latter especially receiving ringing
applause.
Mr.. Anton Kaspar exceeded all his
former achievements here with his
magnificent rendition of "Gypsy Airs,
by Sarasati Although the rule was ano
enceres," the applause was so gen.
eral and persistent that an exception
was made in this instance, and Mr.
Kaspar repeated the last air. His
playing was revelation of what can
be done with a violin. even to those
who bold that instrument as their
favorite.
Dean Wrightson sang Dreams
and "Anathema" from Eliland, by
Alexander Won Fielitz and the Prologue
from Leoncayallo's tPagliacci." His
singing of the old ballad, "When the
Bloom is on the Rye, " and ooh, that
we two were Maying," was exception
ally fine. The latter, especially, show
ed the Deans voice and powers at
their best. He sang the old song with
fine spirit, and was roundly applauded,
Mr.. Lawrence closed the program
most fttingly by rendering the grand
overture from Tannhauser, on the
pipe organ.

PROFOUND SENSATION.
Only One Out of Seyenty.One Harrison
County Teachers Secured First. Glass
Certificates.

CLARKsBURG, July pa pro-
found sensation was caused here
this morning by the announcement
by County Superintendent L. w
Ogden that only one of the IL teach
ers who passed the first..uniform ex-
animation held here some weeks ago
had received q number one certifi-
cate. The County board had just re-
ceived the certificates from the state
board at Charleston and was itself
very much surprised, when the envel-
opes containing the certificates were
opened. The lucky man was c.
Richard Davis of Wyatt, and he
barely passed, his general average
being only 90 per cent. Many of
the applicants are educators of re.
pute in the county and have taught
for years. Great indignation pre-
walls and in all probability the teach
ers Of this county will refuse to teach
this year, and as consequence the
schools of the county will have to
be abandoned. Twenty three twos
were issued and % threes. There
were 10 failures. No cause has been
assigned as yet for the low grades.

he received the report of Adjutant
General Scott on the situation at Dan

previously held conference with the
edjutant general and had advised the
retention of the troops there for an in

ringleaders of the mob which attacked

it would be better to retain the troops

WEST VIRGINIA DAY
At the ST. Louis Fair to be a
Notable Occasion.

is the States Birthday EditOria
Association May Join in Celebrating
The Affair.
Col. A. II. Winchester, Secretary
Of the West Virginia Commission
to the Louisiana Purchase Exposi.
ton, is in receipt of letters from
the management of the exposition,
asking him to designate a day for
the dedication Of the West Virginia
building, and il possible, to have a
day designated as the West Virgin
ia Editorial Association Day Col.
Winchester, in communication with
the Governor, has the suggestion
from him, and conceded in his views,
that the West Virginia building
ought to be dedicated ON the States
birthday, June 20. It is probable
that this date Will be fixed for the
dedication day and the management
of the exposition SO notified As to
the other days, it seems to be the
opinion of the commission that it
would not be wise to attempt to have
too many days of interest to West
Virginians, but that it would be bet
ter to concentrate the efforts on one
day. With that in view it is the in
tention of the Commission to have as
many State gatherings as possible
on that one day. It's now the in
tention to celebrate the West Vir-
ginia Day." the dedication of the
West Virginia building and as many
other events Of interest to West Vir
ginians as possible on that date
Col. Winchester wrote to Presi-.
dent j. Slidell Brown, of the Editor
ial Association, to see whether he will
not favor the holding of the 1904
meeting Of the association at st
Louis, June 90, instead of in this
state in the fall. 1t is argued that
1904 being political year, and every
editor in the State taking an interest
in political matters, it will be impos-
sible to hold meeting of the associ-
alton after the last Of June. For
that reason. and because every editor
will want to see the exposition any
way, it might be well for the associ-
alton to meet at that place and time.
Other bodies, fraternal, relig-
ious and civic societies, might also
held their annual meetings at that
time and place and make a big State
event of it. Ample provision will
be made at ST Louis for convention
halls in which these bodies may meet
free of charge, and several of them
will be requested to consider the
matter of meeting at St Louis, at a
time which will permit of their being
there on the West Virginia Day,
June 90, 1904.
