TO CORRESPONDENTS.

We want spicy, newsy letters,
from all parts Of the county. and
upon any interesting topic, and to
those who have thus far made the
INDEPENDENT the medium for the
circulation of their thoughts and
local news items, we feel very
thankful and hope they will con-
tinue their favor. We want
to remind all however, that
they should write only on one side
of the paper, and use note size, If
possible. The reason ofthis. is, that
when paper is written on both
sides it cannot well be divided into
" takes" for compositors, and when
larger than note size occupies too
much space on the printers case.
To all, we would say, do not make
your communications too lengthy

MIR. William T. cunningham, of
Bedington, in this county, has been
making an experiment in the use of
infammable agencies, and we I'M
derstand, is thoroughly satisfied
with his test Jcc of Fis steers
had been gored by taurine quad
ruped, and he rubbed the wound
with some spirits of turpentine, and
then applied a hot shovel to dry it
in, when 10 and behold, it took fire.
This occurred in the stable. The
animal made for the door, and
would have run into q straw-rick
had mot Mr.. @. kicked him back of
the ear so Justify, that the steer
tumbled over, thus enabling Mr..
@. to extinguish the flames by the
vigorous application of his hat. We
are glad that no serious injury re-
suited from the accident.

FROM BERKELEY SPRINGS.
BERKELEY SPRINGS, Jan. Ia.

BERKELEY SPRINGS, Jan. ii.
The latter part of last week,
Trips bottom was the scene of
another battle, and nobody hurt.
1t seems, VIM. Holiday, some time
back, forbid John Spiker his pre-
misses, but John wouldn't stay for
bid, so William prescribed dose
of lead pills. John couldn't see it,
but turned his back on the physic,
making for Bath instanter, where
by the aid of Squire Gallon, the
terrible William was bound over to
keep the peace.
The polar wave rolled over
Morgan Saturday highland all are
ready to testify it was bitter. We
would give the opinion of the old
est inhabitant, only he had to stay
at home and thaw out the "Apple
Jack.
The ice harvest is about over, a
plenteous crop having been gather
ed, the quality of which is better
than for some years. Icy roads
and smooth shoes have been the
means of Gripping several valuable
horses this week-a penny saved
and dollars squandered policy, we
take it, to say nothing of the cru
city of the things.
We understand the widow of
Joshua Johnson has taken steps
toward recovering damages from
the authors of the Sir Johns road
man-trap.
The little son of Mathew Am
brose, mentioned several weeks ago
as being severely scalded, has near
ly recovered. His parents assure
us that his early convalescence
is altogether owing to their having
used Cassard's "dipsy Cure

Mr.. Samuel Bryarlv,

Mr.. Samuel Bryarly, residing
near Winchester, Va. was found on
Tuesday of last week lying on a
public road near that place, in an
insensible condition, and died on
Thursday. He was unable to give
an account of his injuries, but, as
he was driving four horse team,
it is believed that he was walking
by the side of the horses, stumbled
and fell, and was run over by his
own wagon.

g Bachelor" "Maid,, and
"Sweet Sixteen

Eds. Independent:
We have been much entertain
ed and amused by the various ar
ticles from" Bachelor" Maid y
and "Sweet Sixteen" and have
come to the conclusion thar the
first, travelled gentleman. .
during his foreign wanderlngs
rested over night at Barney
CASTLE" or at. least, pressed his
lips upon the stone near by; also
Martinsburg must be the paradise
of parents, with 'ieventeen" chill
dren, such honest merchants, no
sanded sugar, &C., all her citizens
either ready to go up, or with
wings ready to sprout, and-but
here comes " Maid" to nip things
in the bud, by her query, "What
do you think Of Martinsburg Pr
Now what does she mean, any
how? We are sure the gentle
man "soft-soaped" the people
with a bountiful hand, praised ev-
erything in the Burg" except the
blasted foundation (no cuss words
meant and she should excuse him
for that, as he has, evidently, a
soul, "above the ground plan,n OF
al least, it scars to the spirit land
to bleed and die over again, with
his ancestors, the battles of 1912.
She is a jolly Maid" and we
hope, will continue TO "go forn a
" Bachelor until--well, until she
gets one to suit her. "Sweet Six
teen seems to us rather forward
for 50 young Miss; her ar
ticle betrays the great interest
she takes in Bachelors affairs, else
how gained she knowledge OF their
housekeeping, thoughts and ac-
items. Verify, she has a knowing
head, II half she advances be true
she dissects equal TO an NJ d over

has just read this, and declares
'Swec; Sixteen" a red head ed old
maid and twenty times sixteen, but
OF course we dom, believe a word

We dropped into Mr. III B Miller's

We dropped into Mr. HB Miller's
law-office Thursday afternoon, and
found new practicing attorney
in the person of Col. J. Q. A. Mad
enbousch. He was busily cross
examining witness and testing
his knowledge of matters by hav-
ing the witness determine as to
whether coal belonged to the gro
Gerry or liquor business. We made
note in our book and started for
Parks flower garden to get a bou-
quet, and learned when we got
there that what Jack Frost hadn't
killed, Stollnecher and Jeffreys had
sent to the girls.
