Cross- roads Village Now a Bustling, Hustling Town. NO LOAFERS OR IDLERS THERE Substantial Brick Buildings Being Erected -Lots Selling RapidlyNow Hotel Opened. Special Correspondence of The Argus. MASONTOWN, Sept. 17.
I see no correspondence from this place. This city lies out about ten tmles a little north of west of Kingwood. This is a town of a good many years, yet like a good many other cross-road places, a store, a blacksmith shop, and postoince satisfied the town and people tor several miles around. But the railroad has awakened the people from their lethargy and now they begin to 1 live no longer "on a slow train through Kansas," but a busy, hustling little town. Improvements of all kinds are going ahead.
S. L. Cobun has one of the best store buildings in the county, which is nearing completion, and he is putting down more concrete walks than any other man in the county. Mr. Cobun is a fine, honest, enter.
prising man and is doing a good, safe, and profitable business. He has the most accommodating clerks one will find any place. He deserves great credit for the part he is taking in public improvements and should have the patronage, or a fair share of the custom of the town, There is another brick building here that will soon be completed which will be a fine structure. We are going to have as good or the best bank building in the state, with other going on all the time. Masontown has a good class of citizens.
You can find no loafers here. Pash and hustle is the santown of today. Strangers are coming every day and lots are being sold rapidly. This is going to make quite a business place. There was need ot a hotel; no place for traveling men to stop, so they passed this place by.
That want is now supplied. The Valley House is open to the public, run by I. E. Sypolt; accommodations firstclass; no one need be afraid to stop; good table, good stable; well attended. They are doing a lively business; house full every day.
Ray Sypolt, of Kingwood, visited his parents over Sunday. Mr. Daniels, of Elkins, was visit. ing at James Watson's. He is a student at Morgantown.
LONE STAR. Remarkable Record. Dr. W. M.

Dr. Dent is a stanch Democrat and took prominent part in the party's councils in the good days when Democracy ruled the state.

Mrs. Thomas N. Tanner. Lizzie A. Darland 'Tanner, daughter of James A.
and D. M. Darland, was born April 5, 1876; died September 6, 1907. She was married to Thomas N. Tanner, November 4.
1896, at Spring Hill, Iowa. To this union was born a son, Gerald D. Tanner, who with the husband and father survive her. Besides these she leaves a father, mother, three brothers and six sisters to mourn her loss. Her mother was with her the last weeks of her life.
She was a great sufferer. No one can word paint that suffering. In September, 1899, she dislocated her knee, and six months after this she was attacked with inflammatory rheumatism, which was later said to have developed into a spinal affection. For more than six years she was confined to her bed, and during nearly all this time was helpless, moving neither hand nor foot without assistance. Nothing that the tender affection of a true and de.
voted husband could turnish was denied her. They sought up and down the earth for a sanitarium in which she might be relieved of her malady, spending time and all their accumulations; but like woman of Holy Writ," they spent it in vain. In June, 1906, she with her husband and child came to Reedsville, at which place she spent her last hours. When she knew that the "Jordan crossing was approached," she called her dear ones, and after delivering each a charge and com mending her dear boy to God and the care of a loving husband, said, "I'm sorry to leave you, but meet me in heaven." She was heard to exclaim over and over again and again, "God is love." "God is good." She "encured as seeing Him who is invisible." The blessed Lord wonderfully sustained her in her last hours and made her lite amoug us a blessing. She was converted and joined the Christian church while in college in Oskaloosa, Iowa.
With her husband she joined the Methodist Episcopal church ins Reedsville in 1906. Thus for fourteen years she had trusted the Christ, who when she was a school girl saved her. The funeral was conducted by her pas tor, Rev. A. M.
Hammond, of Masontown, Hebrews After which in the presence of a weeping throng we laid her body to rest in the Reedsville cemetery. Brother Tanher and son have the sympathy and prayers of a host of friends, as have the parents, brothers and sisters. God bless them all in this hour of trial. A FRIEND.
