didate for assessor was here last

fellow.

motored to Fairmont Saturday
where they attended the football
game.
NJ. E. Hill states that a new
hat or a new dress will cause a
woman to lose count of the day
of the week. 1t is thought that
was the reason for Mrs. Rose
Stalnaker starting to Ladies Aid
a day too soon.
John Wyatt, of the west side,
an aged man, was run over by
a car driver Monday evening
and painfully hurt. He was
knocked to the pavement, the
car passing over his lower
limbs.
C. c.. Right, H. B. Shinn, w.
G.. McCloud were among the
number attending the ball game
at Fraimont Saturday. Lum
says it was very good fight

lington folks attended public

Ign Aldrich, of New York.
Demoeratics certainly squirmed
under the analysis Of Democrat
ic rule and mis-rule.

Old Dominion.
Fred Nestor, of Bull Run,
Tucker County, was seriously
shot while hunting a few days
ago. Randolph County and
Tucker County SO far have each
reported hunting accident.
So far Barbour has escaped,
probably not due to the fact we
have no careless hunters.
A. F. Rohrbough should be
added to the Belington fire force
he demonstrated his ability to
fight fire when his shirt caught

/ first thought that the fire came
