Mr. John S. Louden, of Bakerton, and Miss Annie V. Hoftmaster, of Moler's Cross Roads, were married last Saturday evening at the Southern Methodist parsonage in Shepherdstown by Rev. C.

Sydenstricker. On the 4th page of the Register this week may be found an interesting article on hog cholera, which should be read by the people of this section who have sustained such heavy financial loss from this cause during the past year or two. Wm. C. Moler, of the Uvilla neighborhood, received three fine thoroughbred Delano sheep yesterday from ewes and a buck.

This breed of sheep is famous for its wool-producing qualities, it being claimed for them that their fleeces run as nigh as 25 pounds. Miss Blanche Barnes gave a very delightful party in the music room of the college on the night ot February 22d. Her friends were most agreeably enterloinorf onH oiiu vtiiii appi upi iait to Washington's birthday and music and recitations the time was spent in a highly enjoyable way. The Dixie Book of Days, edited by Mathew Page Andrews, scored a big success. It was sold in practically every State in the Union, in the Philippines, Porto Rico, Asia, Africa and Europe, and a few days ago a belated inquiry came from far-off Calcutta.

Preparations are being made for another issue for 1913. We are requested to announce that if there are any Confederate veterans in this section who wish crosses of honor, application should be made at once. Awards will be made in Shepherdstown on memorial day, the first Saturday in June, and on November 12th next, ana after that none will be given out, as the project will then be abandoned. Applications may be made to Miss Sallie L. Powell, Shepherdstown.

W. W. Baldwin, overseer of Wild Goose Farm, will leave in a few weeks tor Biacksburg, where he will take a course of from six to nine months in the Virginia Polytechnic Institute. He will make an especial study of live stock, as Mr. Jarrett, the owner of Wild Goose, ill probably go into the breeding of highgrade stock, later on.

Mr. Baldwin's ramily ill go to Winchester while he is at the Institute, returning here probably next fall. The ice broke up on the Potomac river at Shepherdstown last Sunday afternoon, letting go quietly above the foot bridge and smashing as it jammed against the three sets ot piers one after the other. The heavy rain of Monday caused the river to rise rapidly and the ice from the upper liver and its tributaries came down, flowing continuously Tuesday. It was broken up into small sections by the time it got here, but the sight was nevertheless a very striking one.

Thos. B. Line and his sisters have moved into their new dwelling-house, just completed, adjoining their old home jn Princess street. The new home is a handsome and comfortable brick dwelling with modern conveniences, including electric lights throughout, a heating system, bath-room, with large porches, and is a decided improvement to that part of the town. S.

P. Humnckhouse, was the architect, and John C. Hoffman, J. L. Sheetz and I.

This will be the last number in the course, and the admission has been reduced to 25 cents. Tickets are on sale at Owens Miller's. Prices at the public sales in this section are very good, and live stock of every sort is bringing high prices, as a rule.

Frank R. McQuilkin made a fine sale last Wednesday, horses and cattle selling away up. I. D. VanMetre had a big sale on Thursday, as did Charles Remsburg, in Maryland, the former realizing $3,755 and the latter over $5,000.

Although it was a very rainy day, the sale of the property of the late William Melvin on Monday was well attended and excellent prices were realized. Martin L. Griffith made a good sale on Tuesday. The first thunderstorm of the year passed over this section last Wednesday night, and there was heavy rain until a fierce gale came down from the north and froze up the fountains above and below. It is seldom that we have known such a fearful wind storm.

There was great disaster to shipping along the coast, and in New York the gauges showed a velocity of 110 miles an highest ever recorded. The weather was pleasant Saturday and Sunday, but there were heavy rains again on Monday, with thunder and lightning in the evening. Another high gale of wind prevailed on Tuesday. The board of education of Harper's Ferry district last Friday awarded the hinh vuimuv.1 iui niv ntkiivii vi mv iiv" school building to Frank 0. Trump, of Kearney ville, at his bid of $26,693.

There were eight other bidders, but Mr. Trump was the lowest. The building is to be a handsome structure of brick, of modern design and appointments, and is to be finished by the first of next September. Holmboe Lafferty, who have designed some of the handsomest buildings in this section the architects.

Miller, an aged and wellknown minister of the Lutheran Church, died last Monday in the King's Daughters Hospital in Staunton, aged 81 years. He had been making his home in Augusta county for some months past, and a short time since, becoming ill, was taken to the hospital, where he passed away, from the infirmities of his advanced years. Rev. Dr. Miller was a native of Rockingham county, Va.

His first charge was at Clearspring, Md. During the Civil War he was pastor of the Lutheran Church of Shepherdstown, and his ministry here will long be remembered. He was an ardent Southern sympathizer, and being a man of great courage and of the most sympathetic nature, he did great good in the community. He ministered to the sick and the wounded, he comforted the distressed and the bereaved. When the women of the town were filled with anxiety concerning their husbands or sons, no journey was too difficult or perilous for Dr.

Miller to make to acquire information to relieve this anxiety. He had many dangerous experiences and was arrested more than once by the enemy because of his zeal for his people, but he never faltered in his duty nor was he deterred by threats from doing what he believed was required of him. During his pastorate here he conducted a revival in the Lutheran Church that greatly stirred this community spiritually, and many prominent men were converted and added to the church. The effects of this great meeting are still manifest. After leaving here Dr.

Miller went to Staunton, where he established a school for young women. This flourished for some years, but later he retired from its management. Subsequently he conducted a girls' school at Luray, and after this at Buena Vista. He was for some years pastor of the Lutheran Church at Summit, New Jersey, but for several years past he has not had a regular charge, having given up the work at Summit after the death of his wife. During the past couple of years he spent part of the time with his son, Rev.

C. Armand Miller, in South Carolina, but lived in Virginia principally. Dr. Miller always had a great affection for Shepherdstown and its people, and made periodical visits to his friends here. His last visit was a couple of years ago, when the Lutheran Synod of Virginia met here.

Dr. Miller is survived by one son, Rev. C. Armand Miller, D. of Charleston, S.

two brothers, Rev. Peter Miller, of Rio, W. ana M. Miller, of Iowa; two sisters, Mrs. Bettie Shank, of North River, and Mrs.

Sarah Groves, ot South English, Iowa. Mabel Caton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Caton, died Tuesday night at the uumc ui iici paicnid, duuiiicadi ui iuwii, aged nine years. A few months ago she had a severe attack of measles, and following this her heart became seriously affected.

From the complications that ensued, her death resulted. She was a bright and lovable child, and the bereaved parents have the sincere sympathy ot friends in the great loss that has come to them. The funeral services will be held in the Reformed Church in this place Friday morning at 11 o'clock. S. Milford Schindel, a prominent business man of Hagerstown, died suddenly of heart disease last Thursday, aged 65 ears.

He was a Confederate veteran. Albert Eackles, aged 17 years, son of William Eackles, formerly of Harper's Ferry, died last week in Cumberland form cerebro spinal meningitis.

Welcome, Hot In Basketball That fiery, untamed ag negation of basketball players from Martinsburg came down on Shepherd last Friday night like roaring going to eat us alive and put all Shepherd College in mourning. But they didn't do it.

They couldn't. The historic f3ct is that we trimmed them by the comfortable score of 15 to 9. We will give the visitors credit for some mighty good playing, best team we have gone up against this season, excepting only Fairmont. But they couldn't shoot the goals even get the ball in on fouls? and they lost the game fairly. Our boys played brilliantly, always on the spot, and shot the goals unusually well.

A very large crowd of spectators was present, including a considerable number from Martinsburg, and the rooting was something to be remembered. The playing was rough at times, but nobody was hurt much except Avey, of the college team, who had his ankle twisted and has been a bit lame since. Shepherdstown was so rejoiced at putting the Dutch hex on Martinsburg that the boys, carried our players around the gymnasium on shoulder top. It was hard to tell whether the Martinsburg rooters were saddest or maddest over their defeat. The real thing in the way of basketball, however, was Thursday afternoon, when the girls of Powhatan College, Charles Town, played a game with the Shepherd College girls.

We don't like to say that any of the young ladies lost their tempers, but they "fit" with tooth and toenail and hairpins just flew. It was the first game that the home girls had played in public, and they were unable to withstand the onslaughts of their determined opponents, who fought to win. Besides the scrapping between the girls, the umpire and referee had exciting divergences of opinion. Powhatan won by a score of 11 to 6, and their rooters rejoiced uproariously. The Chambersburg High School team came over to have a game with us Saturday night.

The visitors were a fine bunch of young fellows, and they played quick, snappy ball ard took every chance. But our boys were too clever for them and guarded them so watchfully thev couldn't get the ball info the basket. The score was 30 to 7 in favor of Shepherd College. Yesterday our team journeyed to Front Royal, where we took a game from the Randolph-Macon quint by a score 15 to 13. Our boys didn't work very hard, as they are saving themselves for Martinsburg.

The Shepherd College team goes to Martinsburg Friday night to play a return game with the Y. M. C. A. boys.

To read the gaseous Martinsburg Journal on the basketball subject is to laugh. For several weeks past it has been having hysterics because Shepherd College for perfectly good reasons could not arrange a game of basketball with the MartinsI A A rxf tlwi UUIg I iVl. ICrtlll. VJI I1IC faculty of the college permits our team to play only with teams from other schools, and the Journal chose to assume that our team was afraid to meet the boys. It called us crabs and other hard names, and made intimations that made our boys determine to trim the Martinsburgers when they got the chance.

The opportunity came last Friday night, and we whipped them prop rly. Does the Journal take its medicine like a man Oh, bawls like a spanked child. It blames Martinsburg's defeat on a long floor; a narrow room; the spectators; the umpire; the steam pipes overhead the position of the reason but the right one, namely, that the visitors were outplayed. The Fairmont team had been here a few days before and they found no trouble with our floor and the impediments the World talks about us. They defeated us ecnuse they had a better Martinsburg could have done the same thing it its quint had been better.

Every team that has played our boys this year has been defeated, with the single exception of Fairmont, and none found fault with the floor or the arrangements or the umpiring. It is only fair to the Martinsburg team to say that they repudiate the World's hot air. Public Sales.

AVOID HARSfi DRUGS. Many Cathartics Tend to Cause Injury to the Bowels. If you are subject to constipation, you should avoid strong drugs and cathartics. They only give temporary relief and their reaction is harmful and sometimes more annoying than constipation. They in no way effect a cure and their tendency is to weaken the already weak organs with which they come in contact.

We honestly believe that we have the best constipation treatment ever devised. Our faith in it is so strong that we sell it morinten that it shall not UII nit cost the user a cent if it does not give entire satisfaction and completely remedy constipation. This preparation is called Rexall Orderlies. These are prompt, soothing, and most effective in action. They are made of a recent chemical discovery.

Their principal ingredient is odorless, tasteless, and colorless. Combined with other well-known ingredients, long established for their usefulness in the treatment of constipation, it forms a tablet which is eaten just like candy. They may be taken at anv time, either day or night, without fear of their causing any inconvenience whatever. They do not gripe, purge, nor cause nausea. They act without causing any pain or excessive looseness of the bowels.

They are ideal for children, eak, delicate persons, tnd aged people, as well as for the most hearty person. They come in three size packages, 12 tablets, 10 cents; 36 tablets, 25 cents; 80 tablets, 50 cents. Remember, you can obtain them only at our Rexall Store. Owens Miller.
