The improvement shown by the plac,
ing Of ne wties in the track on the
Baltimore and Ohio lines through the
yard has been commented upon by the
men working for the company. After
the change in ties is completed q force
OF men will start laying new rail
that Is heavier and Of a better class
than isu sually used for yard tracks
The Baltimore and Ohio Company has
decided that on account OF the heavy
amount of traffic handled the year
round through the Fairmont yard. they
could get better service out OF an S.
poupnd rail. The 60.pound rail that
is now on the ground is the same as
used around the country for yard ser
vice. This lighter rail breaks easier
during temperature changes than the
85.pound, which is really cheaper in
the end. so the efficiency bureau of
the company claims.
There has been no steel received for
the new freight depot on the Monon-
gahela property on Merchant street.
John NJ. kisner. who has the contract
Tor furnishing the brick that the COM
pany Is to use in the erection Of the
depot, is ready to start wagon loads
OF brick to the company as son as the
steel ocmes. After the receipt Of the
steel here the force of men will have
to be returned from Morgantown and
places along the line where they have
gone pending the notice to return 20
work. The steel is being furnished by
Pittsburgh concern. and the Monon.
gahela company claims that on &C
count OF the excessive amount Of or.
ders the company is unable to make
the shipment at this time.

went to Holly on Sunday, May 10th,
for Ascension Day services. They were
joined there by all the eight Knights
residing in the eastern part of the
county, and marched to the Presby-
terrain church where they were invit-
ed to hold their special services.
Splendid music was furnished by the
choir and a very able and eloquent
sermon delivered by Rev. Wright, the
paster of the Presbyterian church. Al
ter the services a musical program
given at the Commercial Club rooms
entertained the visitors until the BAN
quet could be served at the Grand no.
tel. Over sixty ladies and gentlemen
were participants in the banquet and
Mr.. and Mrs. Smelzer of the Grand
did themselves proud in its service.
The whole occasion was one long to
be remembered by all who had the
good fortune to take part in it, and
Holly citizens added to their already
well established reputation of being
most hospitable entertainers. Malta
Commandery voted unanimously to
accept their invitation and they are
still more unanimously glad that they
did it.
