COMMUNICATED.
TRUTH ANSWERED.


A brief personal in the School Journal
referring to the prosperity of Shepherd
College seems to have touched As envi-
GUS chord in the breast of some one.
He is no friend of Shepherd College.
The reason is obvious.
Under the guise of Truth" he says
that the college is not prosperous and
that its enrolment is not twice 60.
What was the enrolment at the OPEN
ing of last year? 1t was not 60 nor half
of it. Compare what it was with the
enrolment Of this years opening. What
was the enrolment the first part OF Oc-
tober, which time corresponds with
that of the report to the School JonTnaR
1t was not 65. Compare it with the en-
rollment at that time this year. What
was the lumber in regular attendance
at this time last year? Compare it with
the number now in regular attendance.
Do this and you will see that the Jour-
mails informant knows what he is talk
ing about.
"There was an opposition school last
year" There were reasons for patrons
preferring another school. "There is
no opposition school this year." There
is a reason for this too. Shepherd COL
lege is progressive. Moreover, col
lege, to have standing and influence.
must have something more than num-
bers. Shepherd College is ready for
any comparison. 1t intends to look
after other things and numbers will
look after themselves.
We want not only "truth" but the
WHOLE truth.

Of convictions at the fall terms of courts
in various counties have so augmented
the number of prisoners that the quar-

will have to be put to the purpose for
which it was designed and the cells

The "tasks" set for each man are easily
accomplished, and many of the men
have time for loafing in the afternoon.
Others do extra work, for which they
are paid by the contractors at the same
rates they pay the State. One man does
so much extra work in the broom fac
tory that the contractors have made
regularmoathly contract with him.

A Brilliant ATair.-The Episco

A Brilliant Anair.-The Episco-
pal church of ShepherdstOwn was the
scene of brilliant social event last
Thursday evening, the occasion being
! double wedding, in which the con-
tracing parties were Mr.. John Scott,
of Waco, Texas, and Miss Augusta
Swartzwelder, of Winchester, Va, and
Mr.. Theodore Stark West and Miss
Maude Swartzwelder, both Of Waco.
The church was literally packed with
people, the rather unusual ceremony OF
q double wedding proving to be an at
traction that few persons could resist,
while large number of the FRIENDS of
both couples from this and other places
were present and helped to swell the
crowd. Promptly at seven O'Clock, pre-
ceded by the six ushers, and with Mr..
Arthur voight skillfully rendering
Mendelssohn's Wedding March, the bril-
Gal couples moved up the aisle to the
chancel, where they were met by the
Rector, Mr.. Mason, who performed the
ceremony after the form of the church.
The fair brides were most beautifully
attired in dresses Of white surah satin,
with wells and white flowers, and as
the party stood in the fower-trimmed
chancel, scene of rare beauty and
grace was presented. The entire ar
engagements were of the most refined
character, and were conducted with ell
egailt simplicity.
Immediately after the ceremony the
wedding party and a number of invited
guests proceeded to "Falling Spring"
the hospitable residence of Col. w. A.
Morgan, where reception was held.
After congratulations had been rendered
sumptuous repast was enjoyed by the
guests, and few hours of pleasure sped
swiftly away. Both couples took the
midnight train for New Orleans, from
which place they will proceed to Waco,
where they will make their future
home. May they all have many years
of happiness.

quarters about the 18th of December.
1t is the desire Of the present manage
ment for all boating to be discontinued
by the 18th of next month. Orders
have just been issued to Superiniend-
ents Biscr and Mulvaney to see that
some attention is given to the comfort
of the homes Of the men employed on
paired, and the houses made comtorkA-
bic during the winter months. Many
of them have been in bad condition for
years. The attention given to the SAN
itary surroundings of the homes of the
men has resulted in lesSening Of sick
ness and saving in doctors bills. The
men have been paid off for all the
months during the present year except
October and November, and these
months will be paid before the close Of
navigation. Every bill contracted dur
ing the year 1885 will be paid; no
wages will be left over for others to
look after, and the men will thus be en-
abled 10 provide themselves with the
necessary winter supplies. A consid-
cradle portion of the old debt has also
been paid by the present Arrangements
and a big reduction brought about in the
running of The canal over former years.
The stockholders will meet about the
1st of December, when the report of
the president will be submitted. 1t is
expected that nearly four hundred thou
sand tons of coal will have been ship
ped over the canal the present year
