Canal ToIls.--A special meeting of
the board of directors of the Chesapeake
and Ohio Canal was held in Baltimore Oh
Thursday of last week to net upon the pc
tition of boatmen and business men to
reduce the tolls on the canal. The freight
or coal has been reduced to seventy-tive
cents per ton, fifteen cents lower than last
season, in order that the coal dealers
would be able to meet competition, and
the boatmcn say that unless correspond
ing reduction is made in tolls they cannot
do business. The board was asked to
reduce the rates from forty to twenty-five
cents, or thirty cents at the highest. At
the meeting on Thursday hearing was
given the boatmen, and the board OF di-
rectors decided to make the toll thirty-six
cents, reduction of four cents. This is
as unsatisfactory us the old rates, and at
public meeting held in Cumberland Sat-
urday night it was decided to appeal to
the Board of Public Works and ask it for
n reduction.

The Dog was swappca.-some

months ago, it will be remembered, MIR.
John Martin Byers and family moved
from the vicinity of Shepherdstown to
Illinois, where he intended making his
future home. When they were ready to
depart the family found it very hard to
tear themselves away from their friends
and relatives here, but they suppressed
their feelings rs best they could. When
it came to parting with their faithful old
dog, however, they found that they had
to draw the line somewhere. They could
not part from Rover. When they thought
of it the children blubbcred and tears
came into the eyes of the old folks. SO it
was concluded to take the dog along, and
lie was placed in cage and shipped by
express the same day the family started.
When they arrived ut their destination
they ut once inquired for the dog, but it
had not arrived. In a day or two the cage
came, and the children rushed to see the
familiar form Of Rover. But instead of
their h lndsOme dog, they found mlser-
able little yellow cur with but one eye
and no tail at all. Some express agent
had coveted Rover and exchanged him for
the cur. Great was the grief of the
Byers family, and Mr.. Byers at once
started an investigation. We have not
heard, up to this time, whether Rover has
been found or not.

oke, Va, OH Thursday Of last week, and
the coroner's jury found a verdict that his
death was caused by starvation. The de-
ceased was shoemaker by trade, and ar
rived at Roanoke on the 3lst ult. from
Waynesboro, Augusta county, where his
father and relatives live. He had satchcl
containing Il set OF shoemakers' tools, and
put them up for nights lodging. From
that time he seemed to roam the streets III
search Of work. There can be no question
but that he died OF starvation. lie slept
in the streets or in box cars OH the rail-
road track. On the day Of his death he
came near a house, stating that lie had
had nothing to cat for ten days and felt
badly. The keeper Of saloon close by
gave him drink Of whisky, seeing that
he was exhausted. This he drank, and
was then offered food. He tried hard, but
could not retain anything oh his stomach.
lie died shortly afterward. The parents
of Evans formerly lived in Shepherds
town, but the family moved from this
place to Waynesboro many years ago.

not bed of roses; but by good manage

erfully in establishing the credit of the
