PRESS REPORT ON
A TELEPHONE WIRE

For the past two nights the full
Associated Press report of the Tri-
bune has come into the Office over
the wires o 1.-THE Peninsular Tele-
phone Company, being switched Oh
the first of February from the West
ern Union wires.
The same line that brings this re-
port is used all during the night for
transmitting telephone messages and
many Tampans have talked to Jack
sOnville business associates during
the same time that the telegraph in
struments in the Tribune Office were
ticking from the impulses coming
over the same wire.
This is one OF the latest achieve
ments of science in the field of cleo
trical transmission o: messages by
wire, it being only recently that the
discovery was made that 1t was pos
sible to make use of the wire for the
double purpose simultaneously. When
it was proved practicable, the Penin-
sular Company and The Tribune got
together and the result was the in
stallation two days ago of the sys-
TEN. There has not been the slight
est difficulty experienced so far,
either by the press dispatcher or by
the telephone company.-Tampa Tri-
bune.

The various chambers of Com

made by the Fairmont Chamber of
Commerce in the Good Roads move
ment.
Through Secretary Charles w. Ev.
ans of the local organization the
Chambers of Commerce and Boards
of Trade were asked to join the local
chamber in getting started State
wide agitation for better high ways.
The Fairmont Chamber has very
capable and active committee on Good

is the chairman. This committee has
made Inquiry into the subject of good
road building and has collected lot
Of facts and literature pertaining to
this particular movement that has be-

little attention in West Virginia as
any place in the entire country
The Fairmont Chamber of Com
merce is anxious to obtain national
aid in the construction of good roads
and has started campaign to ac-
complish this end. Some OF the mem.
bers of the committee on Good Roads
attended the meeting held in Wash
ington this month and were active in
presenting this particular phase of
the question before the congress held
there.
With the commercial organizations
over the State in harmony working
for a common end there is little doubt
that there will be much progress
made along the line OF permanent
highway construction throughout the

HAVE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE.
PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL,
AGAIN AT SOUTH SIDE PARK,
TIVE T8NNSWERE REPRESENTED
DECISION WAS REACHED AT a,
MEETING HELD AT PITTsRuRGi
YESTERDAY AFTERNOON. aql

The announcement that without a
doubt Fairmont will have organized
baseball during the coming season
was hailed with delight by the numer.
GUS fans IN and about this city. The
fact that for a season and a half this
city has been deprived OF seeing pro.
fessional games. has been regretta.
BILE fact among the many admirers Of
the National sport in this city and TO
be assured that the game will be re-.
vived in Fairmont during the season
OF 1912 is source of much pleasure.
Bile anticipation for the lovers of the
sport here.
A message received in this city last
evening by President Thomas Hay
mond, of the Tairmont Baseball As.
sociaton, who was in attendance at
the meeting Of baseball magnates of
Ohio, Pennsylvania aud West Virginia,
held at the Henry hotel for the pur-
pose of recognizing the o. P. league,
announced that the league would be
20 and that Fairmont would with
out doubt have berth in the organi-
cation.
AT the meeting held yesterday five
towns we're represented, namely
Fairmont, McKeesport. Steubenville,
East Liverpool and New Castle. Ow-
ing to illness OF the representative
from ConnellsviIlc, this town was not
represented. II was practically decid-
ed to make the league a six team af-
fair, however, this may be changed
and made an eight town circuit.
At the present time it looks like the
league would be composed of Fair
mont, McKeesport, steubenvllle, East
Liverpool. New Castle and Connells-
vile. though Sharon and Butler both
talk of wanting berths in the league.
Il is possible that either Clarksburg
or Warrington may secure berths
also. A salary limit of $4,000 will be
established iWHe u
A meeting of the promoters OF the
league will be held on Friday at Pitts
burg and will be attended by Turk
Linn. OF this city. At this meeting the
schedule and franchises will receive
attention and a president will proba-
Ibly be elected.

COURT HOUSE IS
POPULAR PLACE
BASEMENT is FILLED WITH MEN
THAT ARE SATISFIED WHEN
THEY HAVE FOUND A WARM
PLACE.

The basement OF the court house
this year has proved to be a most in.
viting place to those gods of unrest,
the ones who win not work.
Every day during the cold weather
the basement corridors around the
steam heaters and radiators have
been filled, mostly With men who
merely loaf in there because 1t is u
warm place, and at nearly all times
you will find negroes, Italians, Slav-
lsh or other foreigners before the jail
door talking over the transom to their
friends or relatives who are confined
within.
The justices and men WHO have Of
fees in the building have dubbed the
basement corridors Traders Hail."
this owing to the fact that at no mat
ter what time of the day you 80 into
the basement. you will find men In
there trading anything from knives
and pocket books to watches, chains
and other jewelry.
The past few warm days the most
Of the habituates have gone out into
the sunshine for warmth, and the
place looks indeed lonesome and de-
serted since the devastating, but as.
soon as the weather turns cooler
again the regular line up viii be found
once more around the radiators, and
tho tales told will far out rival any
of the most wierd imaginings Of Poe
or his contemporaries.
