It would mean a vast improvement in horse flesh in this neighborhood. On the first page of the Register this week may be found an exceedingly interesting article by Hon. George M. Bowers, United States Commissioner of Fish and Fisheries, on the subject of the propagation of fish and what the government is doing to cultivate and increase the vast supply of food in the rivers, lakes and seas. Our readers, old and young will enjoy this contribution, W.

During the past week the Register has received many compliments on its improved appearance from friends here aud by letterand by published comment. and of Hagerstown write us: "Hearty congratulations on the Register's new dress. The old girl has renewed her youth.

She looks as gay and gushing as an April bride in her new Easter hat and spring suit. May her continued existence be one long sweet song. Selah!" The workmen who are taking down the old railroad bridge have removed the first from the Virginia accomplished the job without accident. The work is being very skilfully done under the direction of Foreman Facey. The new bridge was built without the use of false work or trestling, and the old is being taken down without such help.

The great traveler is used, and a skeleton iron bridge, especially built for this work, js put in place and the members of the old bridge hung from it. There was a very sudden rise in the Potomac river last Friday, caused by a tremendous rain above Cumberland, and the stream got beyond its banks in a hurry. Several scows and a half dozen or more skiffs were carried down the river from Shepherdstown, a big scow belonging to W. H. Knode being smashed when it struck a pier of the new bridge.

But for timely warning by telephone, great loss would have been caused at the power plant in course of construction at Dam No. 4. Word of the flood was received in time to make everything secure, and the only damage was the loss of some coal, sand and small articles. The works were flooded, causing some delay. John Wm.

Dodd. of Martinsburg, the well-known auctioneer, met with a serious accident last Saturday night. He had been to Berry ville, and returning to Shepherdstown on the 9 o'clock train, drove to Martinsburg, using his own team. While goingjdown a hill just east of the cemetery at Martinsburg his horse stumbled and fell, jerking him from the buggy and dragging him for a short Tiistance. Breaking loose, the horse ran to town.

Mr. Dodd Valked to his home and a phy sician was summoned, who found that two ribs were broken, while he had numerous bruises and contusions about his head and body and a sprained wrist. Mr. Dodd will he laid up for some days, though his friends hope that he will soon be all right again. The buggy was demolished.

U. S. Martin has had a water-wheel installed and a concrete dam built across his property at the foot of Princess street, near the river, and the water power developed will, it is said, be used to pump water into the tank of the Norfolk Western Railway at this place from which the locomotives are supplied. The property referred to is the old saw mill where for generations the farmers of this neighborhood brought their logs to be sawed into lumber, fencing plank, etc. The saw mill was carried off by the great flood just twenty years ago and was never rebuilt the growing scarcity of timber having caused this industry to dyvindle very materially.

Mr. Martin is having a good deal of work done at the place, and it is reported that he has other enterprises under consideration. In renewing his subscription for another year, N. S. Ewing, of Lanark, 111., formerly of this vicinity, writes as follows: "The old Register is better than a letter from home, for it gives us all the news from the county.

I want to congratulate the good people of Shepherdstown for their excellent work in getting rid of the saloons. We put them out of this little town where I live four years ago, and 1 do not think we will ever have them again. All business men say that business is better and they do not have half so much money on their books as they did when we had saloons. The bankers say that they now have money in their banks from men who never had an account before, and they are proud of it. I hope you will keep the saloons out of Shepherdstown forever."

The County Court meets on Monday, June 7, and applications must be filed not later than the first Monday in May.

The firemen have about $1,500 in treasury, and they will seek to add $1,00) to this by public subscriptions, which with the amount to be paid by the Odi Fellows, and funds to secured in othe ways, will justify them in going with the building.

Subscribers Coming in. We have added about a dozen names to our subscription list the past week, several of the new subscribers being handed us by friends who are appreciative friends of the Register. We know of a number who are interesting themselves in our efforts to reach the 2,000 mark, and we think we will "get there" in due season. A dollar a year is mighty reasonable for a paper like the Register. It's cheap enough for every family to have its own copy, instead of borrowing; to have it mailed direct from this office to an absent friend or relative, instead of wrapping your own soiled copy and mailing it; to send a year's subscription as a present to some one that you know will enjoy it.

We want the Register to go into every family in the community and the county and wherever there is interest in Shcpherdstown affairs or West Virginia news. Sample copies will be sent to anybody free. Send us your r.ame?we will do the rest. muigesuon You can eat anything your stomach craves without fear of a case of Indigestion or Dyspepsia, or that your food will ferment or sour on your stomach, if you will occasionally take a little Diapepsin after eating.

The Best Bush And Pole Beans. The best main crop bunch bean is Burpee's New Stringless Green Pod this bean has become so popular and well known that few persons plant any other kind. For a crop to produce beans well up into fall, the Refugee or l.OOOtol is highly recommended. It is very prolific, fleshy, brittle and mild in flavor. I Henderson's Early Leviathan is the best of all early limas on account of its extreme earliness and the large bean it besides being a sure cropper.

Burpee's King of the Garden as a main crop lima has no equal, produces large I pods containing five to six very large beans of excellent quality and easily shelled. Burpee's Bush Lima are becoming very I popular amongst those who prefer the dwarf varieties. Growing but twenty inches in height, they do not require any poles, are very prolfic and produce large beans of fine flavor. Of all the corn beans, the Kentucky Wonder or "Old Homestead," Lazy Wife I and Golden Carmine or Wren's Egg are 1 the most popular and well known. We have all of these in Burpee's choicest 1 strains, and in addition have Burger's Green-Pod Stringless, which is designed to become as popular as Burpee's String? less Green-Pod Bunch Bean.

The pods are borne in clustars, average six to eight in lentrth are uniformly straight. of a rich green color, and so meaty as to be really saddle-backed; the dry beans are of a pearly whiteness.

What greater comfort or truer inspiration to right living can a mother leave to her children and (nose dear to her than the memory of a life devoted to them and consecrated to her Savior In the death of Mrs. Annie E. Schaeffer, who departed this life April 12, 1909, we feel a profound loss, but in her simple and beautiful life we feel that we shall ever have a source of undying inspiration. Feeling the need of a Savior, she sought and found Him at an early age and was received into the church of her choice. For nearly fifty years she adored and worshiped her Savior, rejoicing in his blessings and bearing with humility and patience whatever cross was hers to bear.

Humility and patience were indeed divine attributes vouchsafed to her by her Savior in preparation for a life that was not to be all sunshine. The Bible was her constant companion, its glorious truths were always a source of revelation to her, comforting her in hours of trouble and filling her soul with peace and hope even to the last. Here was a life untouched by the turmoils of the world, here were hands that contributed gladly to the comfort and happiness of all in need, here was a heart that knew only love, and lips undefiled by slander. We shall miss ner greatly, but shall always 1 cherish in our hearts the inspiration to be drawn from her beautiful life. By One of Her Nephews.
