oflnterest that are Happening In Our Neighborhood and Elsewhere. The Charles Town Advocate says that the Bell Telephone Company is negotiating for all the lines now operated by the United Telephone Compauy, which controls the telephones in this section. Wm. L. Arthur has been awarded 1 a contract for digging a big cistern and laying water pipes at the new Shepherd College building, which will be used in connection with the heating and plumbing system.

Charles Swope, who has been working in the clearing of the Messrs. Turner, west of town, found a bee 1 tree a few days ago, and when it was cut down it yielded about a hundred 1 pounds of honey. Three tubs were 1 filled with the sweet stuff, and Mr. Swope and his friends have been liv- 1 ing high. 1 Mr.

and Mrs. Henry W. Potts gave a very delightful party last Friday 1 evening, when they entertained a nurn- her of their friends at tea. It was one of the most pleasant events of the sea- 1 son aud was heartily enjoyed by the guests who partook of the charming hospitality. Mr.

and Mrs. John J. Hetzel, of Martinsburg, have issued invitations to the marriage of their daughter, rrrV? T)r PfiQrUfl William Link. The cermony will take place at "Windewald," the home of the bride, on Wednesday, November 11th, at half after eight o'clock. Dr.

Link i is a native of Duffields, this county. Mattie Virginia Dorsey and Mr. Samuel D. Engle, bothol Charles Town, were married Tuesday evening at the home of the Rev. Dr.

B. F. Ball, pastor of the M. E. Church South.

Miss Mattie B. Dorsey, sister of the bride, was maid ot honor. The bride and maid of honor were attired in white and the bride carried bride roses. Following the ceremony a re- ception was held. I From the Charles Town Free Tress of this morning we take the following item The sickness ot Miss Hattie Small wood, daughter of Mr.

John i Smallwood, at Mechanicstown, has been pronounced smailpox. Dr. R. E. Venning, health officer, called there Tuesday morning aud found that an eruption had appeared and he had no hesitancy in pronouncing the disease smallrox.

The house was quarantined Tuesday afternoon. Robert Carpenter met with a very painful accideut on Tuesday. He was out hunting, and stooped dowu to 1 look under a log after some game Somehow his gun was accidentally dis1 charged and the load entered the log close to his face. The bark and splinters of wood were burled back in- to his face and a number of particles entered his eyes. He was very painfully hurt, and Dr.

Banks had to be called in to extract the splinters. It is thought that Mr. Carpenter is not permanently hurt. Wm. J.

Moler raised this year on his faim at Bakerton 897 bushels of wheat from 33 acres of land, an average of over 27 bushels. This was an unusually heavy yield, and Mr. Moler attributes it to the fact that he has been liberal in the use of lime on his farm. He believes it will pay handsomely to lime the lands ofour county, and it seems singular that so few farm ers take advantage of the opportunity to get cheap lime at Bakertou. The crop referred to above was put out by Carleton D.

Moler. i Mrs. Robert Gibson has announced the engagement of her daughter, Miss Xellie Lane Butler, to Mr. Philip i Bradley Peyton, of Charlottesville, Va. Miss Butler formerly lived in Shep i i nerasrown, ana wan one ui our uriguii est and most accomplished young Mr.

Peyton was for the past two years a captain and assistant pro, feasor at the Virginia Military Institute at He is now with the Miller Supply Company, of Huntington, W. Va. The marriage will take place in the early winter. W. S.

Myers, who lives on the Shepr herd iarm, north of town, has received from the State Board of Agriculture $182 for the cattle killed by order of the State veterinarian last summer. It will be remembered that a number of cattle and hogs belonging to Mr. Myers were bitten by a mad dog, and, developing rabies, had to be killed. They were appraised and a claim for i $210 was sent in to the board. The sum of $182 was allowed and paid.

i Thos. F. Jones, who lost a cow from i the same cause, got $20, the appraised i value being $35. State Superintendent Miller has designated Friday, November 20th, as ar- bor day. He says: "While many persons would choose the spring as the best time for planting trees and shrub bery, nevertheless much work can be 1 1 done to good advantage in the fall; i and in view of the fact that many of our districts schools close before the time of planting in the spring, it is 1 thought advisable to have a day fixed for fall planting also.

I therefore rec- commend that Friday, November 20, 1903, be observed as arbor day by the schools of West Virginia, and I suggest that the day be observed, both in a literary and in a practical way, by exercises as may be appropriate to the occasion." Dr. H. Sears, the well-known lecturer, filled an engagement in Shep- herdatown Tuesday night, and il there 5 is any virtue in a hearty laugh every- body who heard him ought to be feel- ing good yet. Dr. Sears is irresistibly fuuny and has a stock of stories and illustrations that would make a horse laugh.

He kept his audience in a roar i. from Btart to finish, except when he made his points in serious or pathetic language and so drove home hisargu- ments. People laughed until they cried and many a fat side ached when the lecturer had finished. Dr Sears took for his subject "More Taffy and Epitapby," and he impressed 1 upon his listeners the fact that giving bouquets to the living is much better i than putting flowers on their graves when they are dead. We hope he a may come back to Shepherdstown.

We are sure he can cure the worst case of blues on record. PERS0NAL8. A Record of the Oomlng and Qolng of the People That You Know. Rev. and Mrs.

The biggest thing in the way of an i apple crop that we hare heard of this year is that from the orchard of Han- i iel Socks, near Kearnevsville, this county. Mr. Socks has sixty trees twelve years old from which he gath- I ered the almost incredible yield of 1.S00 bushels, an average of 30 bushels to the tree.

He sold them for $1.30 a barrel, and that they are as fine in quality as they are prolific in yield it may be mentioned that the best of them are for export and others are to be a part of West Virginia's exhibit at the St. Louis Exposition. Tnere can be no doubt that our county is particu- larly well adapted for apple growing, the enormons yield of fine fruit this year testifies, and it ought to become famous as a fruit growing region. And even if the price should be as low i is a dollar a barrel the profits would i be handsome. I Mr.

Socks does not spray his trees, i but he has a treatment of his own that he applies to the roots. This year's crop looks as if his method is all right. Dr. D. W.

Border, the pioneer apple 1 grower ot tbe Aearneysvme neignoorbood and one ol our most progressive fruit men, bad a crop ot 2,500 barrels this year, the largest he ever had. 11 is trees yielded enormously, and by 1 ictual measurement one tree had 51 bushels upon it and another 45 bushel. This, we believe, beats the record in Jetferson county. Dr. Border has put bis apples in cold storage with the D.

B. Martin Company in Philadelphia, iud that tirm promises tiue prices this winter. Immense quantities are being exported to England, Germany and ather foreign countries, and good ap- pies are quoted already at $2 75 per 1 barrel in the city markets. It is believed that by midwinter the prices will be much higher. Dr.

Border ex- 1 pects to spray his entire orchards, of about 100 acres, this winter with the 1 lime and sulphur vrash, and has con- tracted with an experienced Berkeley county man to do the work. Hawes'e celebrated $3.00 hats, at T. B. Line's. Tbc Dcatb Record.

Dr. Daniel M. Schaeffer, whose serious illness was noted in our last issue, died at his home in Harper's Ferry last Wednesday. His death was the result ot mercurial poisoning, contracted while attending Tate Moten, a colored man who had been fatally stabbed in a fracas at Bakerton. Dr.

Lemen, were in Charles Town Monday holding a session of bankrupt court, at which time several important cases were heard, in which a number of intricate questions under the bankrupt act arose, which are to be determined by the referee. The 0. McKee case was first called and a report of the referee auditing the debts, a report, of the appraisers and a report of the trustee were filed. Several questions relative to the title of certain property in the hands of outside claimants were adjudicated and settled, 'flie George Porterfield case was then taken up, and argument was heard by the court upon the petition of a number of unsecured creditors attacking the validity of a certain deed of trust lion held by Mrs. Susan Porterfield, involving the sum of about upon the ground that the same is void as a preference under the bank rupt act.

i lie answer 01 rorierfield having beeu filed and depositions taken to support the contentions of either side, the same was argued by Messrs. Mason, Green, Gibson and Trapnell for attacking creditors, and Brown, McDonald and Beckwith for Mrs. Boiterfield. The points of law raised on either side were numerous ami intricate, and the arguments very able and exhaustive. The referee took the matter under advisement.

In the Hurst matter an order was entered distributing a dividend of 2 per cent to general Unfortunate Boys. Allen Myers, the fourteen-year-old of Mrs. Rosa Myers, met with a painful accident last Saturday afternoon. With a party of boys and girls be went to "Persimmon Hill," below town, to sample the persimmon crop, lie was climbing in a tree when a nranch broke and let him fall to the ground. lie fell on his arm and broke he bone just above the elbow and also lisloeated the wrist, besides sustaining 1 tt?

Edgar Athey, the ten-year-old sob )f Edward W. Athey, is a very unfornnate boy. He had heretofore broken both of his arms, when a few days igo he stumbled over something on the grounds and broke one of bis trms again. Breaking bones is a bad labit that he doesn't seem able to get id of. Train Wrecked.

One of the worst accidents that the S'orfOik Western Railroad has had contend with ou this division in a ong time occurred Tuesday morning, when freight train No. 86 was at Stanley, near Luray. The engine was smashed and a number of ars were thrown over an embankment. car-load of mules was upset and ourteeu of the animals were either filled or injurtd so badly that they aad to be put to death. So tar as we learn none of the railroad men was huit.

The accident was caused, we are informed, by broken rail. Paa-enger train No. 23 was delayed nearly six hours. Some very nobby overcoats at T. Line's.

A Visit to Bakerton. The editor of the Register spent last Friday at the busy village of Bakerton, in this county, where the Standard Stone and Lime Company of Washington, of which the Mesers. Baker are the moving spirits, has its extensive plant. Starting some fif- teen years ago with a couple of kilns i and a limited number of hands, the i industry has been bo capably man- aged and so wisely developed that there are now between 300 and 400 i men regularly employed and the week- i ly output of lime is something like 45,000 bushels from the eighteen i kilns that are kept in conetant opera- tion. The lime is of the best quality, 1 and there is always demand for it 1 from this and adjoining States.

i Three great quarries are operated, the original quarry from which the limestone was first taken and twootb- ere on the land the company bought a few years ago from DeDnis M. Dan- iels. Steam Wills bite their way into the rock and make the holes into i which dynamite or powder is packed, and then at the sound of the warning whistle when the men quit work the stone is torn from the beds where a ages ago it was formed. The stone is a loaded in the quarries on trucks, which are drawn by wire cables to the kilns Wood has been used almost exclu- sively for burning the lime at this plant, but owing to its growing scare- lty and its cost, experiments nave re- cently been made by which it is hoped I that coal can he made to eerve for 1 fuel Blowers have been attached to some of the kilns, and they make a fire that peems hot enough for any a purpose. Colored men do most of 1 the work about the kilns, while the I quarrymen are nearly all white men.

1 The men make good wages and seem I to be very well satisfied with their work. I A considerable quantity of the lime 1 is shipped in barrels, and a large force 1 of hands is kept busy in the cooper i shop making barrels. Many of the young men of the neighborhood find profitable employment in this part of the works. D. Raleigh Houser has been the su- perintendent of the works for a num- ber of years.

He recently eent in his resignation, and Harry L. Marshall was appointed in his place temporari- ly. But Mr. Houser had been so long at the works, and was so thoroughly conversant with every detail of the business, that the company has in- duced him to take his old place again, and he will be found at his old post again when he has had a little rest. Mr.

Houser is respected by the men HIJ'l Ilia ilUlllljr in uy uio employers. Genial Wm. II. Liuk is one of the foremen, and is kept busy looking after his part of the work. A branch of the 0.

Railroad connects Bakerton with the rnaiu line at Engle's Station, and an engine is kept busy most of the time handling the cars. The branch is about three miles long, and extends to the Virginia Ore Bank, near by. The people there are interested in the new line of the B. 0. by way of Shepherdstown, which will give them still better facilities.

Bakerton has grown to be quite a village, and there are some very nice homes there. A neat little church, built by the Southern Methodists, gives the people the benefit of religious eervices There are two good stores there, that of Millard Engle and that of J. Strider Moler, the latter being managed by Reynolds Moler. The editor enjoyed a good dinner with his friends Mr. and Mrs.

Wm. J. Moler, whose farm adjoins the village, and was glad to renew old acquaintances. A day was too short to take in the neighborhood as we had hoped, and we mean to make another visit soon. Public Sales.

Whiting, PROPRIETOR OP BILLMYER'9 'I MALARIA Invisible Means bad air, and whether it Enemy to Health comes from the low lands and marshes of the country, or the filthy sewers and drain pipes of the cities and towns, its effect upon the human system is the same. These atmospheric poisons are breathed into the lungs and taken up by the blood, and the foundation of some long, debilitating illness is Chills and fever, chronic dyspepsia, torpid and enlarged liver, kidney troubles, jaundice and biliousness are frequently due to that invisible foa. Malaria. Noxious gases and unhealthy matter collect in the system because the liver and kidneys fail to act, and are poured into the blood current until it becomes so polluted and sluggish that the poisons literally break through the skin, and carbuncles, boils, ulcers and various eruptions of an indolent character appear, depleting the system, and threatening life itself. The germs and poisons that so oppress and weaken the body and destroy the life-giving properties of the blood, rendering it thin and watery, must be overcome and carried out of the system before the patient can hope to get rid of Malaria and its effects.
