Hanna, who had been acting in the capacity
OF chore boy at Phil Helms saloon for some
months past, he having been detected in va

larcency OF a watch from Mr. F. IL. Warren,
last December. The niger was brought
north by Captain Trego, firm of A. H. Trego

stole the watch, he went to Captain Trego's
father and exchanged it with him for anoth-

Snow ON THE SIDEwALKs.-The laziness of
some people is proverbial; they never shovel
path past their premises, but leave the
passers-by to make one The result is seen
in little sheep paths all around town, with
here and there break, where two people
have met and turned out. There is no ex-
cuse for this sort of lazinsss and the ordin-
ances of the city empower the city authori-
ties to clean all the walks as the expense of
the occupants of the premises. If people
won't clean off their sidewalks they must be
made TO pay for it. The city marshal has
given notice (see advertisement and will, to-
gssher with the street supervisor, employ
men enough to clean the walks, at the ex-
pense of the occupants of the premises, un-
less they do it Immediately. Let them ex-
tend their labors to the outskirts of town.

Mr.. E. ". ANDREWS has assumed ed
itorial control of the Martinsburg A6''
Era. one of tine neatest and best conduct

editor having, together with three sons
served three years and half in the Fed
eral army, declares his intention OF pur-
sninc the same conservative course
that has been followed by the Nelr Era
heretofore. In reference to the vexed
question of the Status of Berkeley and
jefferson counties he will be guided by
future developments, but says: IF the
present unjust and proscriptiTe policy
of West Virginia is to be perpetuated,
annexation to her territory will be a
dishonor, and subsection to her laws a
curse"
