Construction Work Being Pushed on
Power H0use-Eyery Thing Looks
Lovely but it Costs Money to Build
as the Projectors have determined
to do.
The Traction company held its
regular weekly meeting last night
There was not a great deal of bust
ness to be done. Superintendent
George Switzer had returned from
Pittsburg and he made his report.
He stated that he had let the con-
tract for construction of the power
house to the Pittsburg Construction
company of Pittsburg. He also re-
ported on the assembling and test
ing of the engines for the power
house which he had witnessed while
in Pittsburg.
These are to be supplied by the
Westinghouse people of that city.
This is ample guaranteed that they
are to be everything that it
should be.
On account of some delays in the
completion of the power house the
machinery which was tt have been
shipped on January "a has been
held back for one month from that
date.
All of the contracts in relation to
the power house have been let. The
excavation is now in progress and
it will be but a short time until they
is completed.
Stone for the building is being
cut in the quarries and much of it
is row ready for shipment as soon
as it is needed. 1t will go in just
as soon as the excavation is com
pleted.
One of the members of the COM
pany was groaning this morning
over the cost attached to the con-
struction of system such as is to
be placed here but stated that when
it was finished that there wouldn't
be finer read in the country. 1t
is to cost about $25, 900 a mile &C
cording to his estimates of it.
All of the mem bers of the company
are highly pleased with the success
which has attended their efforts to
move the work along as fast as possi-

POINT MARION, Dec. 30.-At a
meeting of the town council few
nights ago, the matter OF the short
age of gas was under discussion, and
the six members present were unani-
nous in giving their consent to the
Greensboro Gas Co., or any other good
company, to have a right OF way

can be made for the furnishing of

members but one are In favor Of
another company's coming into the

posed to it but one, but that is false,
as there is only one member opposed
to it, So If the Greensboro Co. wants
to come IN, they have but to see The
council and satisfactory arrangements
can be made.

GOVERNMENTAL coSvICTs


A special from Washington says:
The State of West Virginia Is 10 dam
ger OF losing the profitable job Of keep
ing prisoners for the General Govern
ment and the Governments Of the
District Of Columbia, because OF the
uni ealthy surroundings OF the peni-
Tertiary at Moundsville. The Noun
tain State entertains about 300 men
and women for whose keep" the
Governments mentioned put up many
thousands OF dollar annually.
A report made to the local authors
ties says the place is so damp that
consumption is killing the convicIs at
an alarming rate. The buildings are
old and the prisoners are crowded into
cfamped quarters.
More than one-third of the deaths
which have occurred in the institu-
tion within the past year resulted
from consumption, and every case
save one originated in the peniten.
tiary. The death rate for the year
averaged one each week. The medi-
cal director Of the institution told
the directors that an alarming num-
Der of cases Of consumption has been
found among short term prisoners.
Elias Hatfield, one Of the Hatfield
Mccoy gang" was recently pardon
ed from the penitentiary because OF
consumption. He was received there
an almost perfect specimen OF man
hood. In six months he was over
come with consumption and when re-
leased at the. end OF the seventh
month was In such physical condi-
tion that he was taken home on cot.

Number-High schools for Every
County Uniform Text Book Sys-
tenn roposed-Contest for Speaker

The following special from Charles
ton IN reference to the legislative
mills will be read with interest:
Among the bills that will be intro
duced in the next legislature will be
one to compel compulsory education
In the public schools Of West Vir-
ginia. This will be one OF the pet
measures of Delegate Shawkey OF this
city. 1t will cover all the defects OF
the present law and will provide for a
truant officer whose duties will be to
see that the children OF certain ages
regularly attend school. The law will
probably compel every child between
the age Of six and fourteen years to
be regular attendant in the schools
of the state. The new measure will
be similar to the present Indiana law
which is one of the best OF its kind in
the country.
Among the other bills to be intro
duced that will have bearing upon
the schools Of the state will be
measure to provide for a school term
Of not less than six months duration.
The peesent school term averages
little over five months.
Delegate Cunningham of Tucker
county, Is preparing bill which il
passed will provide for the use OF uni
form text books in the schools. This
will make the books great deal
cheaper.
Another school bill will be present.
ed to the legislature in which county
high schools will be established over
the state. 1t will compel the estab-
lishment of high school In each
county.
The annual report of the state su-
perintendent OF schools Is about ready
for the printer. 1t is good one and
will contain several recommendations
that will be for the betterment of the
schools OF the state.
There will be no change in the mil
laws vi Utot tikiu uC
present laws are model ones and
could not be bettered much. With
few exceptions this law contains
exactly the same provisions as the
Dick bill now pending In congress.
