Obituary.

Thomas J. Henneberry well and fa-
vorably known to all old-timers of
Denver, died on Wednesday. Oct. 18th.
at his home, 2449 Clarkson street.
Death was due to apoplexy and came
after two weeks fierce fight. several
times during which it seemed to his
physicians and ever watchful loved
ones as if his splendid constitution
would triumph Mr.. Henneberry was
born in Ireland f1fty-eight years ago.
but came to this country at a very
early age and settled in Baltimore. In
1876 the fever for gold gurned in his
veins and he turned his steps west
ward, settling in Leadville, where he
engaged in mining. which business he
followed to the time of his death
though making his home in Denver.
he was manager Of the Fidelity Min
ing & Milling company, and a heavy
stockholder in the Twin Peaks Mining
d Milling company. Some of his enter
prises have of late proved very re-
munerative. He had the reputation of
being one of the most honorable men
engaged in mining in Colorado, and his
name in connection with any business
transaction was a guarantee of it's 1e-
gitimacy. The funeral was held Fri
day morning with requiem mass at Sa-
cred Heart church. Burial was in
Mount Calvary cemetery. The pail
bearers We're chosen from among the
pioneers and were Messrs. George J.
Kindel, William Funk, Charles Fox.

The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1907-07-27

Fifteen years ago, at Car bsurg, an
order from the United States Court
caused Independent telephone comp.
ment to he burned on the public
square. To-day the Independent tele.
phones are two in number where one
Of the Bell is to found in this section.
The Clarksburg company as, first
formed was a very small one. sHow-
ever, its formation aroused the ire Of
the Bel interests and a suit was
brought alleging infringement Of pat
emit rights. The result Of the trial sus.
tanned the claims Of the monopoly, and
the offending independents had their
property confscated and burned by
oMcers Of the court in the presence Of
the general public. However, this did
not disturb the promoters, and when
a short time later there were otner
patents issued not infringing on the
right Of the Bell they again installed
an exchange.
Later the people Of Fairmont be.
came interested in the formation Of an
independent exchange. This came
about in peculiar way. The Bell had
penetrated this section and had an ex-
change in Fairmont There were los
telephones in use and none at all in
Warrington, the most important town
in the county outside Of the county
seat. Captain Pricbard, OF Manning.
ton, desired to have telephone con.
municaticn with the court house, and
he asked the Bell people to install a
phone for him tMannington. They
laughed at him for the charming sim
plicity Of his request Not daunted by
the rebuff, he, together with Charles
E. Manley, E. f. Hartley and w. s.
Raymond, determined to build a line
from Fairmont to Warrington, which
they did. Others discovered what a
fine thing 1t was to be able to talk be.
tween the two towns and they came
into the line. From this humble be-
ginning there arose a thriving ex-
change in the two towns.
After the formation Of the company
the management was not content with
She area covered and they have made
successful addition to number Of
exchanges under their control. The
first extension Of Clarksburg after the
first formation was in Barbour and
Randolph counties, where they acquir.
ed the Woodford Telephone system,
The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1907-07-27

by way Of Pittsburg. A direct line is
now being built from Fairmont to
Wheeling, and this would have been
completed before now but for unex.
pected accidents. Connection is also
had with 'West Virginia Western,
which includes Parkersburg and the
western end of the State. Direct con.
nections are had with almost every
part Of West Virginia but the extreme
eastern and southern portions.
The Independent telephone compa.
niles have had hard fight in this
State, but they are so firmly intrench.
ed now that they are stronger than
the Bell, and reach fully twice as
many people as the latter. Progress
has ever been the watchword and the
patrons Of the Independents have re.
ceived better service for less money
than they have from the Bell. This is
true IN every town In which the Con.
soNdated or its allies have entered. 1t
is far cry from the time when telc-
phones were burned by court order on
the public square to the present time,
when the Independents are in the sad.

fifteen years. The rate at which pro.

an augury that the next fifteen years
will mark achievements as startling
and which read almost like romance.

Mr.. Barnes has been with the com.

This was on November z, 1901. In
April, 1906, the Consolidated purchas-
ed the Parsons Telephone Co.
AS it is now constituted the Consoli.
dated covers practically all of Marion,
Harrison, Taylor, Barbour, Randolph
and Tucker counties. In the region in
which 1t operates it owns 5000 phones,
and it has connections with fully as
many more independent phones IN au'
joining counties, making direct con-
nection with fully 5000 telephones.
There are 10 different exchanges I'M
der the direction of the company.
They are: Fairmont, Warrington,
Fairview, Pennington, Glarksburg, sa-
lem, shinnston, Wallace, Grafton, Phil
ippi, Belington, Elkins and Parsons.
Nor has all the improvements been

tention Of the company has been turn.
ed to the betterment Of its property,
and it has neglected nothing that
might tend to give the patrons bet
ter service, in fact, the best that is to
be had. New toll lines connect all ex.
changes. They have been installed
during the past five years and each Of
them is a first class metallic circuit.
The Consolidated reaches every post
Office in Northern West Virginia, eth.
er over its own lines or those Of other
independent companies with whom it
has amicable relations. No other com
pany has such claim.
When it was formed there was not a

The work that has been done has
been stupendous. The cost Of rebuild.

and Grafton alone cost about 100000
This will give the reader some idea Of
the work which has been done by the
Consolidated.
The company is now busy installing
a central energy plant at Fairmont,
with capacity Of 1000 lines and an
ultimate capacity Of 1900. AT Grafton

CONSOLIDATED Telephone

Consolidated the stock sold at q nom

about It reimbursement To-day the
stock Of the company has grown to a
very respectable altitude, and there
are many who want it, while. there is
little or none IN the market.
Last quarter the policy of paying

bonds fall due and the financial affairs
Of the company are in a very health.
full condition. After the payment Of
the dividends the remainder Of the.
earnings, and they are not inconsidea
BILE, go back into the plant, thus giving
the subscribers additional lines and
better service.
The independent telephone compa-
MES are close to the people. Their
stock Is held by home people and they
are under the direction and control Of
home people. The patrons are thus
given more courteous treatment and
in many cases they would not even be
able to get phones at all were It not
for the independents. Rates are kept
at a reasonable figure and the compe.
tition which is assured is very greatly
to the advantage of the subscribers.
One of the results brought about by
the attitude of the Consolidated has
been that although it has never had I.
solicitor in the field for business, it
has found 1t a hard matter to keep
pace with the demands for telephones
and to install them as fast as people
want them.
1t is stated bya gentleman who has
Investigated the matter thoroughly
that the Consolidated gives service at
a lower rate for the same service than
any other telephone company in the
United States. 1t gives subscribers
the option Of two forms of service.
local and district. There is small
difference in the cost Of the two. Inc
number of people reached by the Con.
