the Cherry River Boom & Lumber
Company in Philadelphia.

Col. F. A. Kirby who has been with
y. ). Boggess in the wholesale lumber

resigned the position and will leave here
about the middle of February, accepting

Lumber Company. Col. Kirby win be
assistant manager of the company and
will be stationed most of the time in
Philadelphia, where the company has
,Tts general offices. He will begin his
duties as such assistant manager March
!. The position is more lucrative that
the one he holds here and the opportuni.
ties are better. Col. Kirby is one of
the most efficient lumber dealers in the
country, having had much experience in
that line and being naturally adapted.
The mmberman generally of the state
hold him in high esteem and at present
he is the head officer of their organiza.
ton, known as the Order of Hoo Hoo,
being the vicegerent. lie is also very
popular among hundreds of friends in
Carksburg and other sections of the
state, who all regret the news of his
approaching departure When not en-
gagged in the main offices, he win travel
this side of Philadelphia and will come
here occasionally to look after the com
pany's trade.
The successor to Co. Kirby has not
definitely been selected by Mr.. Boggess
but in all probability Edward Collins
Of the Baltimore Office will be transferred
to this point.
