A Deep Game.

A bogus detective made his appear
ance in Grafton last week and played
a sharp dodge on several saloon keep
ers. Representing to the authorities,
it is said, that he had been employed
by the w. G. T. U. at that place to
break up the liquor traffic, he receiv-
ed official information and went to
work on the scheme. He called at
one saloon and got a drink, after
which, instead of reporting to the
mayor, he simply showed his au-
thority and said that unless the bar
tender planked down ten dollars as
hush money he would give him
away. The liquor man weakened,
gave him the money, and he then
visited another saloon with the same
result. At the third place he failed,
and to avoid arrest, left the town. 1t
turns out that the stranger was not
detective at all, nor had he been EN-
ployed by the w. G. T. U, or any
one else.

West Virginia Boundary.

Governor E. w. Wilson. of West
Virginir, has written to Governor
Jackson. of Maryland, as follows:
"At the last session of our Legis-
lature an act was passed ito confirm
and establish a part of the boundary
line between the State Of West Vir-
ginia and the State of Maryland
The act is on page 237 of the acts OF
1887, copy of which / transmit to
your Excellency by mail. Anticipat-
ing your concurrence. | heartily join
in the wish that the question may be
finally settled at the present session
of the Legislature of Maryland" The
act referred is as follows: "Section
1. That the boundary line as run and
marked by N. Michler, United
States engineer, in the year 1859, un-
der the direction of A. w. McDon-
| aid, commissioner on the part of Vir-
ginia, and Thomas j. Lee, commits

Fairfax stone to the Pennsylvania
line, between the county of Preston,

the true boundary line between the
State of West Virginia and the State
of Maryland" "Secton 2. But
this act shall not take effect until
and unless the State of Maryland
shall pass an act or acts confirming
and rendering valid all entries,
grants, patents and titles from
the commonwealth of Virginia to
any person or persons, to lands
situated and lying between the new
Maryland line hereby established
and the old Maryland line heretofore
claimed by Virginia and West Vir-
ginia. to the same extent and like le-
gal effect as though said old Mary.

established"
The West Virginia law, it is said,
will meet with vigorous opposition
from the Maryland Legislature, the
proposed basis of settlement being il

West Virginia side. - Baltimore

JAN. 26.-After a long, and. per-
haps, welcome silence, | send you a
few items from this place.
A merry sleighing party from Sal
isbury, Pa, consi sting of eight young
men with an equal number of young
ladies, visited our town last Friday
night. After taking supper at the
National House and enjoying them
selves immensely. they returned
home, promising to return again in
the near future.
The property of w. H. Chapman,
formerly of this place. was sold last
Saturday at public auction to VIM. G.
Broadwater for S160S. 1t consisted
of dwelling house, store room and
blacksmith shop.
Rev. O. q. Hardman, of Salisbury
Pa, has taken charge of the Luther
an congregation at this place, the con-
gregation becoming a part of the
Salisbury charge.
Mr.. George SchlOssnagle, of Acct.
dent, is busy circulating a petition
for the repeal of the local option law.
Mr.. Abraham j. Boachy died Sat-
urday night last, of pneumonia, after
an illness Of only four days. He was
in his siXtY'siXth year.
DR.. E. H. BARTLETT visited our
school this week.
DR.. Getty, Henry Smouse, Frank
Spicer, Henry Winterberg and Frank
McKiuzie made trip across the
county to Oakland Monday last.
VIM. II. Chapman, OF Confluence,

The opponents of the Blair educa-
tional bill hope that the House COM
mittee on Education will be found
antagonistic to the bill, and so hold
it back in committee after its passage
by the Senate, if 1t seems probable
that the House will pass it. That the
bill will pass the Senate by a consid'
cradle majority no one questions
The chief point unsettled by the
friends of the bill in the Senate is
whether it is expedient to debate il
at length. The Republicans intend
to send it to the House at an early
day, and to permit the House to as
sumo the responsibility for defeating
it. The friends of the bill in both
houses claim to have assurance thai
this measure is as strong in thu
House this year as it was last, anC
that it will pass if it can be brough

err charge being for through and the
less for suburban travel. This would
afford an income of Sc, 100, 200. From
mail, express, freight, pedestrian and
wagon charges an addition of 20 per
cent is counted. which it is considered
will be sufficient for maintenance,
expenses and interest charges.
The length of the middle span is
$3.50 feet from the centre of each
tower. This alone is great attempt
to surpasS what so far has been at
tempted, for the largest single span
ever planned up to this day is that
over the Fourth in Scotland. which
is 1900 feet. The length of the end
spans is 1000 feet each, making to-
tai length, including the anchOrages,
of $500 feet. From the underside of
the passageways the distance in the
clear to the surface of the middle Of
the river will be AS feet at so degrees
Fahrenheit. The rise and fall Of the
floor will be four feet in other words
the height will be eight feet more in
January than in August, The eleYa-
ton of the towers will be 400 feet to
the lower cable, and the total height
above the water will be 500 feet. The
depth of their foundation on the Jer-
sey side will be rs feet, and on the
! New York side $50 feet. The masonry
piers on which these towers are to
stand will be $40 feet long, $50 feet
wide, and will rise % feet above high
water. The towers are of wrought
iron and steel, with sixteen columns
in each, or eight under each arch sup
shape, and taper from seven feet in
diameter at the bottom to five feet at
the top. The shape of the towers is
chosen for the sake of architectural
impressions, and largely as the best
form to withstand tornadoes striking
the bridge. The disappearing stone
anchorages at each end are each 2lC
feet high above the pavement-con
siderably more than Trinity's steeple
each 800 feet long and $50 feet wide
at the base. Each is tunneled to &C
commodate six railroad tracks. The
superstructure consists of two invert
ed braced arches of steel wire cables
supported on the metallic towers
from which they descend to the an
chorages. The cables are fifty fee
apart, and each is four feet in diane
ter. The wires forming the cable are
wrapped in a steel envelope to pro
tect them from rain and snow and
the weather generally. Between this
envelope and the stand of wires i:
left an air spase of two inches tC pro
tect the interior metal from heating
} by the sun. The platform is Sc fee
wide-the same as the Brooklyn
} bridge, and is designed for trains car
rying load of 900 tons in length
of 1880 feet. The ordinary traffi
will strain the bridge only 10 per cen
of its load bearing capacity.

Notice..

All persons knowing themselves
indebted to John Shartzer are hereby
notified to call and settle by cash,
note or produce, on or before March
1st, 1888, as all open accounts after
that day will be put in shape of judg.
ments. This may seem somewhat
harsh, but remember an open ac.
count will be of no good to me after

give their note. No produce taken
on old accounts after the above date.
