Look out for These Counterfeits.

The secret service has just obtained
possession of counterfeit one dollar
silver certificate of the 1886 series,
check letter ID. The description of
the same is as follows: General APP
pearance of the note and numbering
is very good. The vignette of Mar
tina Washington is very scratchy. The
words United States have the APP
pearance of being "a wood cut, and
the shading is very scratchy. The
back of the note at first glance looks
remarkably well, but upon inspec-
ton numerous defects III the lathe
work can be discovered. There are
no parallel silk lines in the counter
felt. The service has also gotten hold
of counterfeit 50, which shows SINH
lar handiwork to the 81 counterfeit.
The work on both notes is believed
to have been done by the same party.
Both notes are dangerous counter

Mndinn LID the Emmner TeLephone.

Judge John j. Jackson, in the Uni
ted States Court last week, decided the
case of the American Bell Telephone
Company against the Emmner Tele-
phone Company of Charlestown, Mr..
b. G.. Washington president, granting
a perpetual injunction against the
Emmner Company. The decision of
the United States Supreme Court sew
eral months ago, of course, virtually
settled the question, and this decision
merely winds up the Enmner concern
finally. We understand that the tel
ephones will be removed on August
9th from Charlestown, Harpers Fer
nv, Shepherdstown and other points
in this county. An effort will be made,
however, to keep connection open be-
tween the three towns by making
some arrangement with the Southern
Bell Telephone Company for the use
of its instruments.

Who Wouldn't Sc PresIdent?

The railroad men at the Baltimore
& Potomac depot in Washington on
Tuesday gathered around one of the
biggest watermelons ever received
there. 1t was forty-five inches in cir
cumference and thirty-eight inches
long. 1t was found TO weigh ali even
seventy-five pounds. There is no
doubt that short work would have
been made of the monster by the GU
rious ones standing about, but for the
fact that it bore the address, ITO the
President, White House, Washington,
ID. c." 1t came on the Southern ex
press, and the caution handle with
care" was carried out TO the very let
ter. The porter in transferring it from
the car to the truck fairly groaned un-
der the weight of it, \ few minutes
later a wagon took it TO the place of
destination. Here the chief cook eyed
it with delight. A big plug was cut
out of it, and two bottles of claret
were poured in the hole and the pre-
cious burden was put on ice. Who got
it nobody seems to know.

Another Coincidence.

Last week we noticed the strange
coincidence of the death of Mrs j. l..
f. Combs, and the falling on the same
day of weeping willow tree planted
by her, and this week our attention
has been called TO another. Mrs.
Sarah Hefllebower, all aged lady of
this county, died at the residence of
Mr. Frank Morrow on July 18th, and
thereafter in an hour her old driving
horse, which had been allowed to
Craze in the yard, laid down under
the window where Mrs H's. body was
lying and also yielded up the ghost.
This occurrence is vouched for by reli-
able witness. MartinsJurg Statesman.

Be Careful of Your Diet.

In these summer days in which cool
spells alternate with sudden and pros
trating heat it behooves all our citizens
to have a care as to diet and habits
of life generally. Reasonable pru-
dence in this respect will result in
benefit and enable one topass through
the trying season now upon us with
the minimum of danger from illness
and will fortify the system against
sunstroke and kindred results of hot
waves. Ice cream and raspberries
when eaten hastily are said to be the
cause of the illness of Hon. Samuel J.
Randall. These, however, are harm
less enough in themselves when eaten
properly.
