Stock for Sale
For @.Isel1nent Iui eses

The per value Of the stock is 500
per share, but is now offered at one
half ($5O) and it is worth it. The
company has already sold a limited
amount of stock, equipped the prop
erty with the best working machinery
in the world and it has plans for a
great future. The money secured
from the sale Of stock will be to push
the work. Every dollar will be used
to prepare for the best interest Of the
company. AS the drill goes down the
stock will surely rise. The price it Is
now offered at will only be short
time. A good rule is to let oppor-
tunity in when it knocks at the door.
For an investment there is nothing
more tangible, brighter or more surer
dividend paying than this stock, par
ticularly at $50 per share. Don't wait
until it goes to par, but buy now. Il
is really chance that comes seldom.

Senator EIkins and Others Al
ready Have the Survey
Under Good HeadWay.
NOT A TROLLEY LINE
But at No Distant Day System
Here is to Connect WithIt
at Benton's Ferry.

Resulting from an act passed by the
last legislature in reference 10 the
building of railroads ON opposite sides
Of rivers. steam railroad is to be
built. In the near future from Pitts
burg to Elkins by lockwood, Pa,
capitalists The general impression
Mt this time IS that It Is TO be troll
ley road, but semi official information
Is. that 1t Is to be in fact steam
railroad.
The great purpose OF building the
oad is to develop a coal boundary OF
$4,000 acres of coal below FaIrmont
owned By Stephen B. Elkins. Henry
q. Davis and others and TO give the
Elklns and Davis interests through
connections with their other railroads
in the state.
A local feature OF the construction
and operation OF this railroad will lie
the extension OF the Fairmont &
clarlsburg Traction company's sysem
from Grasselll by way OF Bridgeport
TO Benton's Ferry. a dlstanc OF per-
haps less than ten miles to connect
with the new Elklns road at Benton's
Ferry.
The corps of engineers who have
reached Grafton have now completed
the survey from the up-rlyer point
just named. The Surveyors on leaving
Eklns paralleled the Western Mary
land railroad as far as Belington.
From there they left the line OF the
railroad and came by way of Meadow
dale. Nestorsyille and to the west OF
Sandy Creek and into Grafton,
Thence they will poeeed down the
Tygart's Valley river and by Morgan
town to connect with K. & NJ. rail-
road and thence into Pennsylvania by
way of Faichance into Pittsburg, ac-
quiing some electric road properties
as part of the Pittsburg end OF the
system.
j. c. Bloomfield is chief engineer
with three assistants, of whom A. v.
Wllmoth, of Ellins is one The latter
was accepted as a member OF the en-
gineering corps because of his famil-
iarity with the country through which
the line is to pass.
The company is headed by ]. C. Nc
Spadden, OF lockwood. Pa, as pres
ident. Other capitalists outside the
state are said to be interested in this
enterprise, while 1t is known Senator
Elkins and Ex-senator Henry G.. Da-
Wis are large stockholders also.

lied upon to connect Ray Lamphere

That Helgelein did not give up his

semble the hair covering the head of
