Lecture.-By request of the Young
Mems Christian Association Of Shep-
herdstown Mr.. Z. d. Bowly has con-
sented to deliver a lecture, Friday, JAN
uary 30, 1886, upon that most interest
ing subject, "The Honey Bee" This
is a subject of which too little is known,
and one of which volumes have been,
and will continue to be written, such is
the extent Of the field to be explored.
The following captions will give some
idea of the breadth of the subject and
the manner in which il will be treated
by the lecturer: The Honey Bee as a
fascinating study The Honey Bee as a
sovereign, politician and subject; The
Bee AS an example to mankind; The
Bee AS an architect and builder; The
Bee and its habits too little known: The
great variety and improvement in the
Honey Bee; Why every farmer should
keep few Bees; Improved hives and
methods of handling Bees; lIumbugs in
the above and the harm they do, The
Honey Bee pronounced royalist; The
Bee can never become republican.
The lecture will be held in Billmyer's
Hall, and admission will be free. A col
lection will be taken up, and the pro-
ceeds devoted to the uses of the y. NJ.

What W. Like.-We like to hear
man refuse to take his home paper and
all the time sponge on his neighbors for
the reading of it. We like to hear
man say when he is asked to subscribe
for his home paper that he takes more
than he can read how, and then 60 and
borrow his neighbours or loaf around
until he gets the news from it. We like
to see man run down his home paper
rs not worth taking and then beg the
editor for something in the editorial
column. We like to see a merchant or
mechanic refuse to advertise ia his home
paper and then try TO get share of the
trade which the newspaper brings to
town. We like to see merchant send
away for printing and save % cents,
which he pays to the express company
for delivering the goods. We like to see
this; it looks economical, thrifty, pro-
gressive, and cheeky to say the least.

5. L. KNOTT, Sec'y.

On Thursday, the family of Mr.. Jas.
A. Lemons, residing OH Wolf creek,
Monroe county, had occasion TO leave
the youngest child, little girl aged
eight months, lying in il crib in the sit
ting-room, near fire. After while,
some one was attracted by cries, and
upon going thither it was found that
the bed-clothing OH the crib had caught
fire presumably from spark, and that
the lower limbs of the child had been
burned almost to the thigh in the most
horrible manner. The fire had burned
slowly and the flesh of the little suffer-
er was actually roasted.

F,rmer.. Bewnre.-One Of the

Farmers, Bewnre.-One Oh the
biggest swindling sch emes of the times
is about to be worked on the farmers OF
Southern Pennsylvania and western
MARYLAND, and we hasten TO sound
note OF warning that our friends may
not be "taken in" The swindle, or
what we take for one, is the sale OF "Bo-
hemian OATS at $40 per bushel, and the
scheme is worked in this way: The
agent comes to the farmer and offers TO
sell, him the oats for seed ut $40 per
bushel, representing it to be prolific
and valuable oats, and guaranteeing,
and giving bond, to resell for the far
mer twice the amount next year, at the
same price $50, deducting $3.50 per
bushel commission. The scheme has
been worked all through Ohio, anu
many thousands of dollars taken out OF
the farmers pockets. 1t is now exposed
by the Ohio papers, and it is the bust
ness of the Pennsylvania and Maryland
farmers to profit by their sad experience.
1t seems that the oats is not valuable,
and consequently that the company"
ever expects to fulfill the obligations.
-Hagerstotcn Nsps.
1t is not at all unlikely that these fell
lows will cross the Potomac, so it will
be we'll for our farmers to be on their
guard. Have nothing at all to do with
the swindlers.

4 Liberal Donation.-Monda.

A Liberal DOnatiOn.-Monday
evening Mr.. Jacob Roessner, Secretary
of the Home for Orphan and Friend
less Children, Hagerstown, received a
check for 0,000 from Mr.. B. F. New
conner, of Baltimore. This was in COM
pliance with his proposition of a few
months ago to endow the institution to
this amount, upon condition that its
friends in this county raise sufficient
amount of money to purchase the prop
erty now occupied by the home. The
conditions being complied with, Mr..
Newcomer now sends his check for the
amount promised by him. This is the
second donation Mr.. Newcomer has
made To this institution. AT former
date he duplicated the sum Of 81 800
which had been collected tor the same
object by church collections throughout
the county. Mr.. Newcomer liberality
is philanthropic and in support of a
worthy cause, and those who have aided
in obtaining the desired result can rest
easy in having done well in the cause OF
humanity. Between 500 aud $500 adj
ditional is needed to replace the 81 200
borrowed from the support fund to
make the first payment on tn property
at the time of the purchase.-H0gers-

After the Sheep.-Dogs have been
playing havoc among the sheep in this
county recently. Mr.. Jas. Ii. Moore's
flock of sheep have been attacked by dogs
several times within the past week or so,
and eight or ten of them killed and a

of Mr.. Jno. w. Hendricks, we also learn
was recently attacked by dogs.

more through the South. He says in
his report: ''The line from Baltimore

city an earlier dispatch, as well rs d
through connection via the Shenandoah
Valley route to Tennessee and the South.
This service is of great Importance TO
the commercial interests OF Baltimore
and other cities lying north OF that
place. and should be continued"

years, and then accepted call to the

Complimentary.-we learn tina,

pitmentary.-We learn tnat
there is movement on foot to tender
our esteemed fellow-citizen, Mr.. Henry
Shepherd, a public serenade and COM
rlimentary demonstration generally,
on Tuesday evening next, February 2d,
in honor of his birthday.
1t was prompted by desire on the
part of the persons-mechanics and
workingmen-to whom he gives en-
ployment, to show in some simple way
their appreciation of his material aid
and benefits to them. From this casual
origin of quite humble pretensions
few days ago, it has grown rapidly in
proportions and interest, until we now
learn that it will be participated in by
Capt. Criswell's Silver Cornet Band,
Capt. Durmore's Brass Band, parade
by the Shepherd Fire Company, and a
turnout by quite number Of the prom
inent citizens of our town and commu-
nifty.
The liberal responses Mr.. Shepherd
has always made to the varied and fire.
quent calls upon him in behalf OF our
local enterprises, as well as the numer-
GUS private benefactions he dispenses in
the community, of which the public
hear nothing, place our people under
lasting obligations to him. Hence, when
some suitable opportunity, like the pres
ent happy occasion, on which to show
some recognition and express some APP
probation Of his generosity does occur,
it would be worse than ingratitude not
to improve it.
We confess some question of propriety
in referring in advance to an occasion
like this, but our apology therefore, is de-
sire to give the movement our endorse
ment, and to discountenance prejudice
and narrow-mindedness on the part of
any in IA matter of such general pub
lie interest.
One of the attractive features OF the
ceremonies is to consist Of a fine dis
play of fireworks at some suitable
point and under proper management.
There is an ordinance against the dis
charge of fireworks within the cor
porate limits without the permission OF
the mayor or council. A petition is in
circulation, signed by many Of the
prominent citizens of our town, asking
such permission for the occasion, which
we trust will not only be cheerfu!ly
granted but that the freedom Of the
town" will be extended Mr.. Shepherd
and his friends, and be done in such
a manner and spirit as will give heart
to the tribute rendered.
We sincerely hope the occasion may
prove in every respect An entire sue
cess; a pleasant, happy and memorable
evening to all who participate.
How will it be accepted and respond
ed to by Mr.. Shepherd: If we would
only dare tell out loud the whisper we
hear of banquet and good things in
preparation, it would put mt rest all
doubts on that question.
Not to anticipate, we feel confident
that if we do ourselves credit as
town, we hazard nothing in assuming
to assure all that Mr.. Shepherd will
show his appreciation i'll manner that
will fully sustain his well-earned rep
utaton of doing whatever lie does first
class.

Finding Ii Out.-Tramps seem tt

be finding out the fact that Shepherds
town is a good place for them to strike
i'm bad weather. There have been an
unusually large number of them here
recently, and as they are given lodging
in the lookup and provided with food,
they evidently communicate this fact to
their fellow-travelers. One night last
week five of them were sheltered and
fed, AMI last Monday night six applied
for similar treatment. The authorities
should not treat them too we'll.
