A LA CARTE DINING CAR SERVICE
on
BALTIMORE Il OHIO TRAINS.

The popular demand, "Pay for
what you get, and get it when you
want it," induced the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad to install, some four
years ago, la carte service on dining
cars to supersede table d'hote. With
the exception of very few instances,
the la carte service is used
throughout the system because it af-
fords the traveller an opportunity Of
getting something to eat without pay
ing for more than he wants. In these
palatial cars, the coach as well as the
pullman passenger can sit down TO an
immaculate table, receive the atten-
tion of the best trained walters, and
secure for the small sum of twenty
five cents, cup of coffee and bit Of
toast or sandwich. He pays the usual
ten cents for the coffee, ten cents for
sandwich, and five cents for the
best service possible, surrounding him
self with an appetizing atmosphere,
and having the attention Of the most
skilled walters. all for the above small
amount.
Is not this iafnitely better than
hurrying from his train to lunch
counter, or to have your coffee and
sandwich brought to you at your seat,
and be submitted to the annoyance of
the acrobatic feats which necessarily
accompany such a performance?
The dining car service of the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad is not out
classed anywhere. New dining cars
have been added every six months,
and the present equipment, skilled
service, and excellent cuisine are OF
tho highest standard.

observer in every town and city.
There is right here 10 this city of

aginable for just such an event as
that which has brought sorrow and
bereavement to thousand homes in
Chicago.
There is not haH or church ia this
city that does not invite such a catas-
tropy. The writer goes to church
every Sunday where the aisles are mar
row, and often filled with chairs dur
ing the exercises nd where the front
doors are made to swing inward and
if a stampede should occur, people
would be trampled to death by the
score.
But no attention will be given to
this thing till such an event happens!

NOTHING DOING,
Fayette County Unusually Dull
During Holidays.
Not More Than a Dozen Murders and
Sudden Deaths During the Festal
Emancipation of Blood Soaked
County Being Last.

A special from Fayetteville la
ments the passing glory of Fayette
county. 1t is as follows:
Christmas week in Fayette was
unusually quiet and orderly. There
was but little drunkenness and con
sequently few fights resulted. Loop
creek celebrated the day without a
single murder, although there were
several cutting affairs down on Lower
Loop and Squire Station sent few
prisoners to jail.
Paul Brake tried to chop up Annie
Smith with an ak. A few gashes on
her head was the best he could do
and Squire Station sent him in. The
Woman may die
E. Neil, also on Loop creek, cut
Tom Hall up in a fight and was sent
to Jail. Tom was not hurt very bad.
At Prudence, Ashley Surbanger
stabbed w. L. Brigending in the
back, inhicting "a rather serious
wound. He is in Jail Both men
were white and both were drunk.
Down in the lower end of the
county there were few lively fights.
AT Boomer, Chas. Haskins struck
Jim Pendexter in the head with an
ak. Pendexter lived until Monday
when he died. HaskIns is in Jail.
Shedrick Hunt killed Hillary Cullu
somewhere near Montgomery and
Squire Hundley sent Shed to jail.
At Elmo a colored man named
John Southland, employed at Newlyn
mines, was found dead Christmas
morning. He had been beaten in
the head with club and died from
exposure. Some of the local sleuths
have been working on the case and
thee or four prisoners are now in
Jail charged with>the murder
The McKendree hospital received
several victims from Christmas cele-
bratlons and three died there il one
day Rufus Islom, a white miner,
who was shot at Rush Run by a
colored man, lived but few hours
after being brought in. He was shot
through the bowels. Waller. who
was shot on Laurel creek, had a
wound similar to Islom's, and died
shortly after being brought in.
Three DRINKS were killed by C. Il

City Solicitor Beall has prepared a
curfew law for Morgantown which
will be presented to the city council
tonight for their action. The oriin-
ance was prepared ia pursuance Of an
order Of council passed at the last
meeting. II consists OF three Sec
tioDs, and is brief and TO the point.
Section ! provides that it snail be
unlawful for any child under certain
age to be On the streets or alleys Of
the city after certain hour in the
evening" unless by permission Of, or In
company with, parents, guardian o.
other person having legal custody Of
snch child, or unless upJn some legi-
innate errand sent by parents or guar
dian.
Section two makes it unlawful for
parents or guardians to allow children
on the streets under the age and after
the hour fixed by section one.
Section three fixes penalties for the
lnfraction Of the provisions OF sections
one aud two.
Solicitor Beall has left the hours.
the age OF the children and the penal
ties vacant to be Supplied by council.
His idea is that during the months
OF April, May. June, July, August,
and September the curfew hour should
be ten o'clock, and during the months
Of October, November, Decemb Der,
January, February and March. nine
O'Clock This gives the children the
freedom Of the streets until late
hour during the summer months
The nine O'Clock hour will obtain dur
ing the school months. The penal
ties for infraction will be fixed by
council.
The ordinance will be a popular
one with parents. Many of the lead
ing citizens Of the city have been in
teryiewed in regard to it by repre-
sentative of the New DOMINION aud
as yet no opposition has been unearth-
ed Slight differences OF opinion ex-
ist In regard to details, but all are in
favor OF curfew law.
Prof. Thomas e. Hodges said in re-
gard to it: Il dm heartily in favor Of
the proposed curfew law, and believe
all mem bers of the school board are.
The Board has provided truant Of
flcer to keep the children eff the
streets during school hours, and IL the
city council will keep them in at
night it will be most wholesome.

Policemen Tom Fleming and
Frank Canoe we're indefinitely sus-
pended from the police force last
night by the city council. The ac-
tion was taken upon the reoommen-
dation of Chief of Police r. B. Price,
whose word in matters concerning
the force is practically final. The
formal charges against the officers
were incompetency and neglect of
duty. The matter was elaborated
and specific charges were made
before the council, which went into
executive session to consider the
matter.
The curfew ordinance, which was
reviewed at some length in these
columns yesterday, was presented
and passed It's second reading. The
age limit was fixed at sixteen years.
The hours at which curfew will be
rung are eight O'Clock from October

ing penalties were fixed. so cents

second and $500 for the third and
each succeeding offense. or imprison-
ment for 10 days in Jail, at the
discretion Of the mayor. These
apply to the children themselves and
to parents or guardians who wilfulls
allow them TO break the law. The
ordinance will undoubtedly be pass

The New DOMINION is right in
stating that the Wabash road is
now tied up al Grafton by what may
be interminahle litigation and it
will probably be years before the
differences between it aud the Il. u
O. can be adjusted by the courts.
But the New DOMINION is wrong
when it refers to the possibility Of
the Wabash trunk line through the
State being abandoned. The Wa
bash is too largely interested invest
Virginia to abandon its read, but
the line may be changed back to the
route originally intended. For some
time there has been a general feeling
that probably work on the Little
Kanawha route would he resumed
and since the Grafton litigation has
become so much involved, it would
be no surprise to sec the Parkers-
burg and Little Kanawha route again
sclected for the main line and work
resumed on the Little Kanawha ex-
Misunderstanding Sentinel.
The Sentinel may,,b right in what
it says about the trunk line through
by way Of Parkersburg but many
people in this section who think they
know what they are talking about
are sure that IL won't 60 through
this section. The cessation of work
in and about Fairmont seems to be
another count in their favor. This
