A South Carolina newspaper says
that not long ago New Yorker wrote
to the State Treasurer that he had
found among his papers a lot of old
South Carolina bonds, and he wanted
to know if they had any market value.
The treasurer investigated and replied
that they were worth 100 cents on the
dollar. The bonds were worth SOS, 500,
and the New Yorker has just drawn
S21, 900 accumulated interest.

Burqlars Like Shepherdstown Clothing.


Last Friday morning when Mr.. 5.
p. Humrickhouse entered his clothing
store on Main street he found that
some one had been there before him.
Burglars had broken open the front
door during the night and stolen
clothing, jewelry and notions to the
amount of about a hundred dollars.
1t was a very bold robbery, for the
store is surrounded by dwelling houses
and is directly under a bedroom in
the house of Mr.. 81. NJ. BeltZhoover.
This is the third robbery of a Shep-
herdstown clothing store within the
past seven months, Mr.. Jacob Win
termOyer's stock having been ralded
twice last fall. As in the two previous
robberies. the thieves threw piles OF
clothing on the floor of Mr.. Humrick-
houses store, and soiled them by
trampling over them. The tools with
which they forced open the door were
stolen from the blacksmith shop of
Mr.. John p. Hill. 1t is greatly to be
regretted that these midnight marau-
ders cannot be captured.

A Cement Mill to be Erected Near Hancock.

\ Hancock correspondent of the
Hagerstown Globe says: Two gentle
men named Waters and Hyke arrived
here on last Thursday evening. They
are agents for Mr. Emerson, who is
at the head of a number of cement
mills throughout the country and
have successfully negotiated for the
lease of the cement rock portion of
Mrs. Rose Bowles' farm. A mill to
have the capacity of 1000 barrels of
cement in twentyfour hours is TO be
erected inside of four months and if
not commenced in said time forfeit
of u good sum will be given. The
cement rock is of an excellent quality
and is considered second TO none in the
country. The erection of the mill will
be of a great advantage to our town
and people, as from 125 to $50 hands
will be employed
