HARRY
LEMON,
a Well Known Young Man, Has Been
Missing For Two Weeks.
Family Frantic Over Dis
appearance.
MORGANTOWN

MORGANTOWN, Aug. 1S.-(Spe-
cial. )-Theres is great deal of anx-
.iety here concerning the disappear
3ance of Harry Lemon, son of C. B.
Lemon, who lives in the Fourth ward
in this city. Young Lemon had been
working at Mt. Chateau, on Cheat
lFriver, until two weeks ago. His faith
er is very low with consumption, and
the young man was sent for to come
home to be with his father in his
last days. The young man resigned
his position and came home. On
Thursday, two weeks ago to-day, he
went to the telegraph office and
sent message to relatives in Union
town, telling them of his fathers se-
rious illness. He went home, and.
shortly after that was seen on the
porch reading book. Since that
time he has not been seen. No one
here has the faintest idea what has
become of him. His family is fran
tic over his disappearance, but owing
to the fathers condition, search can
not be instituted for him He is a
handsome young man. twenty-three
years of age. He is tall and fair
compIexioned, with blue eyes and
light hair. He is well known at Fair
mont. Many theories are advanced
concerning him, but absolutely moth
ng is known about him.

Miss Simmons Resigns.

Mrs. w. L. MCGOWAN informed US
this morning that she is in receipt of
letter from Miss Mabel Norton
Simmons, who had charge of the De,
partment of Elocution at the local
Normal School last year, stating that
she has accepted position in a
school nearer her home in Massachu-
setts and will not return to the Fair
mont Normal. The friends of the
school in general and those of Miss
Simmons in particular will receive
this news with regret. She is a very
capable and worthy teacher and her
place will be hard to fill. Professor
MCGOWAN is at Harrisville, Ritchie
county, this week and no action will
be taken in supplying the vacant po-
sition until he returns.
