The large majority of the people
of Martinsburg favor home i'm
provements, and endorse the course
of the Independent in that respect.
But we believe in commencing
right, so that all may end right. II
there is any one thing that should
be fixed up nicely and kept neatly,
it is the main business street.
Strangers very seldom go off of it
and they are all sure to travel over
it, and our citizens use it for a
general promenade, therefore it
seems to me that money would be
better spent in thoroughly repair
ing Queen street before attempt
ing to fill up the valleys and dig
down the mountains in the SUBJ
urbs. Let the Council fully con-
slider this matter, and make prop
erty-holders lay down good pave
ments and keep them in order.

The dull day with reporters is
something horrible TO think of
muck less experience. Yesterday
was just such a one. and our local
reporters were sorely tried. The
thermometer showed the mercury
at so in the shade, and the repOr.
tiers wandered to and fro where
fragments of news are usually
picked up, but it was of no use;
everything was too quiet, nobody
knew anything, and even If they
did, the sudden change in the
weather had attacked them too
violently with spring fever to
make them communicative So
the locals stood on Queen street,
under the shade Of a friendly avn
ing. Their heads were bowed with
sorrow, and the fatigues and trou-
bles OF this world worried them
sorely. The money market was
tight, and they joined hands to
share each others misery. While
dreamily Illuminating on the hard
ships of the profession, and plan
ming campaign against Fate, a
small dog, very much under tn
influence oftemptation, came along
hopping on three legs. His eyes
they were black, and his hair it
was white. He looked as though
he were unused to ablutionary
practices, and he was all weary and
forlorn, consequently he was all
tattered and torn. In front of a
store ,o1 the opposite side of the
street he espied o piece of meat,
which his desire for something rare
made him go for. And go for it
he did, but the consequences that
followed are sad to re-
late. The meat belonged
to Teutonic gentleman of huge
abdominal proportions, who had
stepped inside the store for mo-
ment to purchase some articles
When the alarm was given our
German friend rushed out at full
speed and upset barrel of pota-
toes, and went to the ground him
self, with thud that fairly made
the earth tremble. He kicked and
flloundered, and in his terri
bic efforts to rise he up
set another barrel of pota-
tose, and it really seemed as
If it was raining potatoes on that
Dutchman's head. This bothered
him some, for his most ardent
thoughts were on the thieving
dog. He arose and went after that
dog. Up the street the chase con-
tinued until the thief was cornered
but the meat was out of sight, for
he had eaten it while the german
gentleman was undergoing his
troubles with the potatoes. We
90 not exactly understand ger
man, but we are satisfied he was
mad and that broken English and
Dutch profanity were sadly mix
ed in the effort to do the author OF
his troubles full justice. Well,
who wouldn't, under the circum-
Stances.
