CALEB, THE IRREPREssIBLE. By Mary
Moneurs Paynter. Chicago; Henry A.
Sumner & Co.
This is the latest issue in the
Hammock Series" and is purely a
summer romance. 1t is a love story
agreeably told. The scene is laid in
the south during the war, and there
are several well drawn characters
as Caleb. the negro boy; his mother
Aunt Dinah, and Katie and Jack
The tale is not burdened with {
plot, but is simple and natural. and
therefore appropriate for this wea
ther, when nobody desires hare
reading or wishes a book that re
quires study.

this place, did the work.
Judge Thos. c. Green, of tho Supreme
Court OF West Virginia, had an epileptic
attack while walking on the street in
Wheeling Thursday of last week, and fell
to the ground. He has almost entirely
recovered, and no serious results are an
ticipated.
1t is now promised that the comet
CROOKS" will become visible to the naked
eye by the night of the 2lst instant, and
that its intensity will continue to Increase
until about the middle Of January, but at
its best it will not be Il very brilliant OBJ
ject In the heavens.
We observe by some of our exchanges
that deer are numerous in the mountains
of West Virginia this season. For those
who prefer more exciting sport, bears can
also be found. A boy named Cyrus
Wamsley, of Randolph County, killed
three bears last week.
A gentleman who was advertising a
jewelry firm in New York." played the
same old game OIL lumber of our citi-
zens Monday evening. AS usual, after
CHATTING" pretty well, he succeeded in
realizing quite handsome sum by dis
posing of a small quantity Of worthless
jewelry.
A certain Shepherdstown man has been
Dragging considerably lately about hen
belonging to him that laiG two eggs day
OH three different days. His record is
beaten badly, however, by a 'Tater Hill
hen, which lays duck eggs. We don't
believe even the Braxton Democrat can
get ahead of this.
Remember that we can print at The
REGISTER OFFICE bills, posters, cards,
letter-heads, bill-head>, envelopes, checks,
receipts, and everything i'm this line as
neatly and as cheaply as the same class of
work can be done elsewhere. When you
want anything in this line give us
chance TO do the work.
Although there are many bad boys In
Shepherdetown, there are likewise some
good ones. Two Of the good ones acci-
dentally broke pane Of glass in private
residence HallOw Fen night, but the next
day they voluntarily went to the owner
of the house and confessed, and offered to
pay for the glass. That was "on tho
square," boys.
Several evenings during the past week
the sky has presented a curious and beau
tiful appearance. For couple of hours
after sunset the heavens In the southwest
have been of brilliant red color, pre-
senting the appearance of vast confla-
grafton. The natural cause is the reflec-
ton from the sun, but some think 1t is
"token."
On window pane at the house of Mr..

AFTER MANY Year.-Rohert Ev,n.

AAtcE many ucaFH.-h0Dert Evans
was arrested at Gahotown, this county,
on Thursday, by Deputy Sheriffs Crcque
and Pauliag, and lodged in Jail at this
place. In 1865, during Mr.. John w. Pit
zer's term as sheriff, Evans was con victed
Of horse stealing, and sentenced to three
years in the penitensiary, and while on
his way to Moundsville, during stop of
the train ut or near Cumbe rland, he es-
capped from his guards, and located, we
understand, in Ohio, where he married
and gathered around him family. Some
time during the present year he re-
turned to this county, with the above re-
suits. 1t is hard to fathOm tho object
he had in coming back here to settle down
again, after so long time, with the SEN
tence Of three years still against him and
a certainty Of discovery. He stated, how
ever, that he was under the impression
the sentence had, by virtue of age, lost its
force, but the statute of limitation does
not apply in such cases, and the infatua-
tiol. that impelled him to return has
brought the wife and seven children to
knowledge Of the crime of the husband
and father, committed eighteen years ago,
which up to the time Of his arrest, we
understand, they were In entire ignorance
Of. There is much in the case that will
appeal to the sympathy of the public.
Since writing the above, a petition To
the Governor for Evans pardon has been
put in circulation, and is being generally
signed.-Nartinsbwg Independent.

Do the parents know that their children

they so Indifferent to the education of
their children rs not to caro- whether they
go to school or not! Is it because the
education of their children costs them so
little that they give no care to their at
