Serious Efre.-Ou las

Serious Fire.-On last Saturday
night about ii o'clock snoke was seen
issuing from the Lutheran Church,
corner Of Robinson and Commerce
streets, and the alarm Of fire was given.
The fire department was promptly on
the ground and the doors being opened
the work Of distinguishing the flames
begun. The fire was almost immedi-
ately gotten under control but WAS not
entirely sublued for over an hour,
owing to the difficulty In getting TO il
in the roof. The carnage TO the church
was severe, the floor, ceiling aud seats
being burned TO considerable extent
AMI much further injury done by smoke
and water. The handsome and costly
memorial window erected To the menu
Ory OF Mr.. John Trout was totally de
stroyed. The damage is estimated at
from $500 to 81 900, which. is covered by
insurance, we learn, except, perhaps,
the Trout memorial window
Leader.
The church referred 10 is the one Of
which Rev. WIN. L. Smith, formerly Of
this place, is pastor.

The ContaRion Of Example,

The Hagerstown News is responsible
for the following: A few days ago Qast
week. a young gentleman and lady, at
tended by two gentlemen and ladies',
called upon Rev. j. 5. Kieffer for the
purpose of getting married. Being
supplied with the necessary legal docu-
ment, which cost $3.50, Mr.. kieffer
soon made the "twain one flesh, and
the party started for the depot, to give
the bride and groom "send of. i"
Whilst the train was speeding on its
way, one of the attending couple got to
talking "serious," the result of which
was visit TO Clerk Oswald, aud just
two hours from the first marriage Rev.
Mr.. Kieffer had earned another Y, the
third couple acting as attendants. The
married couple and attendants left, TO
all appearances perfectly happy; but
there was scarcely the lapse of an hour
before the door bell of the parsonage
again rang, and the minister was ell
gagged to perform the same service for
the third couple at the house Of the
prospective bride.

County News.-We clip the fol-
lowing from the last Charlestown
papers:
From the Spirit:
We congratulate our friend Il. w.
Latimer upon the ease and confidence
with which he fills his new position as
Circuit Court Clerk, and predict for
him successful term. The retiring
clerk, Mr.. F. P. Lynch, has been a
faithful and efficient officer, and has the
best wishes of many friends for his con-
tiuued prosperity aud usefulness in his
future avocation in life.
John Cullan, an aged Irishman, for n
number of years past resident of this
place, and Familiarity known by the
name of SANDY" was found dead at
Berlin on the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road, on Sunday morning last with Il
leg broken aud his head cut, and is sup
posed TO have been struck by passing
train. His mind had been affected for
some time past, aud he was for while
all inmate OF the lunalic asylum ut Wes-
ton in this State.
We regret to announce this week the
death Of our well-kn0wn anG highly es
tecmed fcllOw-townsmau, Il. N. Ais
quith, Esq, who died on Saturday ey-
ening last, in the 10th year Of his age.
RE was at one time postmaster at this
place, aud was one of the celebrated
"fnrty- miners" who went from this Sec
| ton to California. and but few of whom
| are now living. Es had been an iuva-
lid for long while, and was taken with
pneumonia last week, which hastily ter
minated his life.
"Uncle Tom Moore" as he is famil-
| iarly called. entered, Oh New Years
Day, upon his eighth elected term Of
office as Clerk Of the County Court of
Jefferson. He was first chosen TO the
position by the bench Of magistrates in
! 1910, and of the twenty-fnur justices
who then voted for him, hut one (Hnn.
A. X. Boteler) is living. In 1880 he
entered the Office as deputy clerk, and
served for ten years in that capacity
so that with the exception Of an interim
of seven years Immediately after the
late war; he has been continuously in
service in the clerks office for over fifty
four years. A veteran indeed!
From the Free Press:
Thieves made raid upon the poul-
try yards of Messrs Geo. II. Flagg and
$. Lee Philips last Friday night-re-
lieving these gentlemen Of turkeys.
Hon. william n. Travers on SUNDAY
night last slipped upon the pavement
at his Office door and broke small bone
in his ankle. The accident will sus-
pend his activities for several weeks.
but we trust will not result in any per-
manent disability or lameness. DIR.
Richardson rendered the necessary SER
vice.
Messrs. Frazier s Colston have pur-
chased about twenty-five acres OF tim
Der of Mr.. VIM. Brall, near Flowing
Spriug Mil and are clearing the same.
During the progress Of this work on
Monday lsst William Taylor, worthy
colored man Of Charlesrown, was in
jured by the failing of tree upon him.
An arm and thigh were broken and his
head horribly crushed. 1t is not likely
that he can survive these injuries. DIR.
Starry was promptly called and rem
dered skillful treatment.

Council met Oh Monday evening last,
all the members present. Messrs. Jacob
Ferrells, Emanuel Miller and l.. b.
Smooth. com uni sioners, reported that at
the late election 1853 votes were east Tor
and A votes against the Issuing OF
bonds. The committee on bonds re-
reporied that VIM. F. Murphy & Sons,
Philadelphia, were the lowest bidders
for lithographing the corporation bonds
at s14, and they were given the con-
tract. The Council ordered that the
bonds be issued for twenty years, re-
deemable at the pleasure Of the Council
after ten years. The Mayor reported
that the Auditor Of State had paid over
to the corporation the sum of $24.b9 as
the tax of the Shenandoah Valley Rail-
road for the year 1883. The Committee
on Fire Engine reported as follows:
"Your committee beg leave to make
the following report: The following
fire engine companies have been repre-
sented by agents: The Button Steam
Fire Engine Co., the Silsby Steam Fire
Engine Co., the Mansfield Steam Fire
Engine Co., the Clapp d Jones Steam
Fire Engine Co., and the Ahrens Steam
Fire Engine Co. OF these companies
the only bids coming before the COM
mittee were those OF the Silsby Steam
Fire Engine Co., 81, 500 for a second
hand engine and 800 feet of 2h-inch
hose. The Button Company, 81 500 for
secondhand engine, or $2,375 for the
same engine, hose cart and 600 feet OF
hose. The Mansfield Company, 81 500
for an engine, and allowing $3.50 for old
engine and hose cart. The last propo-
sition has not been accepted, for the
reason that your committee have learn.
ed that the Mansfield engine sent to
CharlestOwn WAS not up to the compa-
ny's specifications, and WAS not there
fore accepted. This brought US to
choice between the Button and Silsby
secondhand engines. Four members
! of the committee recommend the Silsby
engine anG three members recommend
the Button engine. We believe that
either engine will be found serviceable.
The Messrs. Button state that their
engine is an old one, but guarantee
new boiler and bearings, as per letter
enclosed with this. The Silsby Co.
state that their engine is comparatively
new and in good order.
Cali of which is submitted by order
of the committee.
"H. w. PoTTs, Chairman"
After some discussion the Council
unanimously voted to buy the Silsby
steam fire engine, and the contract was
signed OH behalf of the Council by the
