What is music here but madness,
Funeral marches for the dead
Signs of wan and notes of sadness
Roll around each fainting head.
Sweet, oh sweet, the airs Of heaven
Happy hearts those skies enfold:
And with robes Of light are given
To each wearer harps ofgold.

One day last week the parties in

and the finest fish they ever ate.
Some ofthem weighed over 5 pounds

interesting field for further develop

Gated at Lynchburg, Va, receives a
very complimentary notice, under an

qualifications and enterprise as a
dealer in musical instruments, and
as musician. He attributes a great
deal of his success to Messrs. III. A !.
Frazer and A. j. Thomas, who en-
couraged and assisted him in his
start in business. He is now but 25

of the best statesmen that travel the

Mr.. Milton Wisler, who married
Mrs. Maggie Jones of this place, was
thrown from bridge by an overturn,
ing board at Helena, Pa, a few days
age, and received serious injuries.
He fell a distance of 81 feet, but
strange to say no bones were broken
although he sustained very severe
cuts and bruises. Strong hopes are
en- tertained of his recovery.

At meeting of the Board of
Education for Charlestown District
on Saturday last, the salaries of
Teachers for the ensuing year were
reduced from $40 per month to $50
for those holding / class certificates.
Mr.. A. b. Yates was in favor of re-
ducing to $50; Mr.. J. N. csallaher
was for $40; Mr.. Jno. L. Colston
for S35-and that sum finally agreed
upon. We hardly think that the
voters Of this District when they
voted for ten months term instead
of nine months calculated that the
extra month should be at the ex-
pense Of the Teachers. Under the
order of the Board they will teach
ten months for ten collars less than
they got for nine months last year.

hurry to get on, they neglected to
screw the nut on the spindle, con-
sequently, after proceeding a short
distance, Mr.. Markle leading the
horse, the wheel ran off and down
came the vehicle again, throwing
Mr.. Johnson out and spraining his
ankle quite severely Statesman.

On last Saturday evening two in

On last Saturday evening two in
teresting games Of base ball we're
played at the c. v. grounds. The
frst, and by far the better played
game was that between the "Light
Weights and the "White Shirts"
The game was well played and closely
contested, and resulted in a score of
8 to in favor of the former club.
Six innings each were played. The
game was umpired by A. Tingstrum
and the score recorded by Frank
Mathews; time, hour, So minutes.
The following is the score:
Light eights.-Lawrence WEAVING,
l; Lewis Gerhardt, l.; Berry Chambers,
0; Grant Darby, /; Olonza Ryneal, 2;
OConnell, /; Durtee, O; Ed Hobbs, o;
Grant Pitzer, 8. Total, 8.

Siler, 0; Clifford Moore, 1; VIII Kee-
dy, 2; Scott Little, 1; Bob Ford, o.; KAY
anaugh, 1. Total 6.
The second game was played be-
tween the "Martinsburg" club and
the ''B. & o. Shop Boys" and was
also interesting, although somewhat
loosely played. The change made
behind the bat on the part of the
"Martinsburg" club in the last in
ming was the cause of it defeat.
Four innings each were played, with
a score of Is to II in favor of the
"Shop Boys" The game was UNI
pired by Lewis Gerhardt; Grant
Pitzer acting as scorer time / hour
and 40 minutes.
