WHAT A RAILROAD DoEs.-The
Weston Republican says: THE num-
Der of names registered at the Bailey
House one day last week was forty
five, of whom only eleven persons be-
ronged to this county. The average
lince the weather opened and the
soads became passable has been
about thirty day at that hotel, be-
sides the number accommodated else
where. The railroad brings this
enormous travel. Men come here
looking not only for land, but for
timber, cattle, horses, sheep, hogs,
wool, minerals and all kinds of pro
ducts for which West Virginia is be-
coming famous. Give MS plenty of
railroads and the development of this
State is sure thing"
TERRIBLE DEATH-Frederick and
Robert Strother, residing together on
farm near Sardis, Harrison county.
met with an instant and terrible
death on last Monday evening. They
had just returned home from Clarks-
burg where they had taken a wagon
load of shingles, when the heavy
storm of that evening burst upon
them. While engaged in putting
away their team, large sycamore
tree near the house was blown down,
and fell upon them, crushing the men
and the horses to the earth. The two
men were instantly killed, their bod
les being horribly crushed and man
gled One Of the horses was also
killed, and the other badly injured.
The men were aged respectively SO
and SO years, and were most estima-
bic gentlemen. Robert leaves a wife
and Frederick wife and four chill
dren.
A heart rending accident occurred
about a half mile east of Pennsboro,
on Thursday Of last week. A little
child, only Is months old, of Thomas
Keener, living near the railroad,
crawled out from the house unknown
to its mother upon the track and was
run over by the east bound accom-
mediation and killed. The train
came dashing up at the rate of about
30 miles an hour, and when the engi-
neer, Mr.: Geo. H. Robinett, saw the
child he was within so yards of it.
He Immediately applied the air
brakes. reversed his engine, and did
all in his power to save the helpless
little one but it was beyond his pow
er to stop his train in time. The
child's head was severed from its
body and one leg cut off.-Grafton
Sentinel.
COMMITTED SUICIDE.-On Sunday
morning last Lewis Payne, who lived
with his brother, Daniel Payne, be-
tween Grafton and Webster, about
half way, committed suicide by hang
ing himself in wagon shed near the
house. Lewis, was about sixty five
years of age, and bachelor. He
had been afflicted for some time with
melancholy and had threatened to
take his own life. Such an act, how
ever, was not looked for by his
friends. But Sunday morning after
shaving and dressing himself for the
day, he left the house. After being alb
sent few hours his brother went to
look for him when he found him
hanging in the shed as stated. He
was cut down and DIR. Wilson, of this
place sent for. The doctor made an
examination, but found life extinct.

STAGE LINE.-Mr. f. G. Bright, who
has so long and faithfully, through
rain and snow,warm and cold wealth

VIII indeed be a great country after a

SOME of our State exchanges are
hoping that the County Commission
ers of their respective counties will
publish a statement Of the financial
business Of their counties for the
past year. These brethren should
read up the acts of last winter, and
they will find that the Commission
ers have no option ia the matter, as
the action of the Legislature requires
that such statement shall be pub
lished in each county where there is
paper. The statement for Monon-
gala county was ordered by the
Commissioners of this county to be
published in both papers, and it APP

Last Saturday was the day fixed
upon by the Second Adventists as
the time for closing up matters con
nected with this world. The whole
crowd of them, no doubt, expected to
be summoned to judgment on that
day. But the destruction of the
world didn't come to pass and we
suppose they will at once go to work
to ascertain why it didn't. they
will probably keep at their figuring
until they are summoned singly, and
will have to go and leave this world
and all its machinery running just as
though they never had existed.
