A SUCCESSFUL OPERATION.-Mr.
Hickman, who lives on West Baltimore
street, in this city, has been troubled
for some time with tumor that was
growing on his right side, beneath the
arm pit, and recently concluded to have
an operation performed. He secured
the services Of DIR. q. r., Scheller, who
assisted by DIR. Il. M. Schindel, success
fully removed the foreign growth and
several smaller ones-a whole family of
them in fact. The largest one weighed
three and a half pounds, and was a
great annoyance to Mr.. Hickman when
he wanted to perform any labor. He
is improving rapidly from the effects Of
the operation, and an ultimate recovery
is expected. Hdgerstoi0n Mail.

SCARED DEAD BEEF. last Friday
after hearing weighty case, the jury
dined at the Continental Hotel. Capt.
Rutledge had grandly set table, as us.
ual, and the way those hungry men ate,
was enough to drive the average hotel
keeper crazy. Deputy-Sheriff VIM. L.
Noll, after dinner, took them out for a
walk, and all were picking their teeth
when they passed the INDEPENDENT
office. At Blondel's corner they cross
ed over and came back up town on the
other side. Just before reaching George
Lambert's butcher shop, a fine quarter
of beef fell on the pavement at their
feet. A council of warswas held. Some
wanted to pocket the dead meat Others
desired to eat it on the spot. But the
Deputy commanded the party to march
on, which they did, casting many yearn.
ing looks back at the helpless quarter
1t is a bad reflection on our Court to Sc.
lect jury that cannot walk on the
street without frightening dead beef
Tut, tut, it is just too bad.

FINE, LARGE Pros. Sometime ago,
mention was made of the large hogs of
Mr.. Charles Thumel. and we said he
took the cake. We now withdraw our
affidavit, and award the sweet delicacy
to Mr.. b. +. Fiery. He butchered two
hogs this week. One weighed 5spounds
and the other which was little larger,
tipped the scales at 63 pounds. A law
should at once be passed by the Legis-
late, making it q crime to overstock
the pork market in this reckless style.

THE old building of the M. f.
Church, South, on Maple Avenue, has
been purchased by d. w. Shaffer, Esq
Last Sunday the congregation met for
the last time in the building wherein
God has so long been worshipped. Old
people were present who had attended
the first meeting in the building and
association of other days were called up.
The meeting was very pleasant, though
somewhat sad. Mr.. Shaffer will con-
vert the church into two nice dwelling
houses.

A BAD WRECK, Thursday after

A BAD WRECK, Thursday after
noon collision occurred near the little
station Of Melville, on the Valley
Branch of the B. u o.. between bal
last and freight train. Both trains
were travelling at a high rate of speed,
and of course the wreck was terrible
one. VIM. Fitzpatrick, of Winchester,
Supervisor Of the road, Charles Crider,
brakeman of Strasburg, and Mr.. Bishop,
engineer, of Sandy Hook, were killed.
The collision threw number of the
cars into the Shenandoah river. Both
engines were rendered useless and sew
eral cars mashed to pieces.

Mr.. Z. g. UNGER, of the Frederick
NetCs spent several days here during the
holidays, and upon examining an issue
of the daily, we see he remembers his
visit in the following paragraph ,
"Your reporter spent the latter part
of the holidays in Martinsburg, W. Va,
and enjoyed himself hugely, had the
pleasure of meeting with Messrs Grant
PitZer and Frank Aler, two of Martins
burg's promising young men; and en-
ployes of the INDEPENDENT" Office ;
well they are the boys to make 1t pleas
ant for you when you visit their city.

wish them long and useful life, and a
kind and pretty wife in the near future
to cheer them on as they journey over
the hard road of the printer"

BLIGHTED. The following incident
is too good to be relegated to the realms
of oblivion. A certain young gentleman
of this city has been paying attention
to nice young lady, living west of
Queen street. For months past, these
two young hearts have beat as one, and
the fond parent every night expected a
request for his daughters hand. Last
Sunday night as he sat alone by the fire
the young man entered the room looked
around to see if they were by them
selves, and then shut the door behind
him. The fond parents hopes arose
1ano and he could scarcely keep in bis
chair.
"Mr. -" stamnered the youth, II
have spoken to your daughter and she
has consented. Now, I wish to ask
your"
"It's all right, dear -. hope you
both may be real hap"
"But, my dear sir, allow me to-
Never mind, dear boy; no thanks.
1 have been there my"
"Sir," exclaimed the youth, "please
calm yourself. Your daughter has con-
sented to attend the theatre tomorrow
night, provided you will consent also.
That is what l wanted to ask you"
The old gentleman was dumbfounded.
The desperate young man left without
his hat and has never returned to claim
it. The parent declares he was just
joking, "you know; but the stuffed
club above the front door gives him
dead away.
