strangers expressed surprise at the
excellence of the exhibits and the
great crowd of people, and predicted
brilliant future for the exhibition.
Mr.. John w. Hill, below town, car
ried off the sweepstake prizes on
wheat, and Towner Sehley, who says
his fertilizer did ii, is prouder than
Mr.. Hill is.
Most OF the exhibits were judged on
Thursday. We will publish list of
the premiums next week.
The programme for to-day, friday
includes speech by General Thomas
l.. Rosser, who arrived yesterday
afternoon, and who has received one
continuous ovation from his old COM
rades and friends here; the baby show;
the wheelbarrow race; public sale of
stock, etc.
Taken all in all, the exhibition was
great success. There were more
people present than at any previous
fair. Being a comparatively new
thing, of course, there are still some
points that do not work smoothly.
But there is nothing wrong in the
management of the exhibition that
cannot be easily righted. The eX-
periences of one year will suggest
improvements for the next. and the
exhibition is bound to take a front
place III the fairs of this section

Diseases of 1--we Stock.

\ new cattle disease is mentioned
by the Leesburg Mirror as having de
veloped in Loudoun county, Va,
among the herd of Mr.. Gregg, of
Round Hill. The hides of the steers
become dry and hard and furrowed
with cracks running with and across
the ribs, forming scales that are
taken off in great flakes. The editor
of the WdshingtOnian says he had cat
tale similarly affected the previous
wear, and that they recovered, though
the affected parts looked as if it had
been scaled. The disease, he thought
was not contagious.
The cholera is spreading among the
hogs in this county, and reports from
several sections say that the hogs are
suffering from its effects. The dis
ease seems to be in mild form, and
the deaths are not numerous.

Killed on the Railroad.

William Zigler, of Martinsburg, was
killed on the Baltimore " Ohio Kali
road near Sir Johns Run last Satur-
day morning He was u freight con
ductor on the second division, and
had started with his train TO Cumber
land. When near No. II water station,
or Sir Johns Run, slight accident
to his train delayed him, and he was
forced to go back some distance to
flag No. 3, which would soon be due.
Having reached the desired point for
this purpose, he sat down on the end OF
a cross-tie on the north track and
kept his lonely vigil until he was
overcome by sleep. The express
came laundering along before he
awoke, and striking him on the side
of the head, knocked him clear off
the track. When picked up he was
conscious, but he lived for a short
time only. Mr.. Zigler had been in
the service of the company upwards
of 80 years.
James Shipley, brakeman on the
same division, was killed few days
previous by being struck on the head
while passing under the Great Caca-
pom bridge. He had long been i'll the
b. & O. service.

Col. Thomas Makes the Money.

The Chambersburg SPIRIT says;
''The Granger who makes the most
money out of the Changers picnic Is
said to be Col. X. H. Thomas, its self
contributed general manager. For
every passenger carried to the grove
bv the railroads he is said to receive
fen cents The restaurants pay him
$4,000 for their privileges. Every
fakir and every exhibitor pays him
a big fee and altogether he is said to
make from IS, 900 TO SO, 900 clear after
all expenses, which are not light, are
met. There is nothing i'll the notion
that the fair is held under granger
auspices. That is simply fancy OF
the Colonel's to work upon the farm
er-s credulity. He gets Changers to
address it such as Victor Piollett,
weather prophet DeVoe and James
Adams Beaver, but these get II small
share, if any at all, of the profits.
1t is Thomas's big blowout and since
Thomas enjoys it and people ike 10
90 there for fun, for ordinary pleas
ure. to see the crowds, TO get fleeced,
to shake hands with old friends and
for what not, what's the use of com
planning. It's Thomas picnic and If
i'm time there's TO be n funeral there
it will only be Thomas funeral.
1t may also be noted that the flu
neral of the Williams Grove picnic is
bound to come. 1t is said that it
shows evidence os the coming demise
this year. The attendance was much
smaller and the interest greatly les
sened from former years, showing
that it has seen its best days. The
visitors from this side of the Potomac
were very few. We reckon they were
all waiting for Morgan's Grove, the
vigorous young fair that is destined
to become the leading exhibition in

Corner Stone Laying.

The cornerstone of the new Eplsco-
pal Chapel at Duffields will be laid
with the usual Masonic ceremonies
on Thursday, September 18th, at IL
O'Clock. The Masonic Lodges from
this and Berkeley counties and from
Sharpsburg, Md, have been invited
to participate, and will doubtless be
present. Appropriate addresses VIII
be made by Rev. DIR. Meade and
others. The Shepherdstown Cornet
Band will furnish the music. lmme-
diately after the ceremonies dinner
will be served by the ladies, and in
the evening festival will be held.
The price of the dinner will be 90
cents. As the proceeds are to help
pay for the chapel, it is hoped the
patronage will be liberal. All are in
vited.

A Relic of James RVmsey.

A large stone, in the shape of a
wheel, used by James Rumsey, the in
ventor of the steamboat, in grist
mill in Allen district over 100 years
ago, is now on exhibition in front of
the Courthouse, the first boat ever
propelled by steam was launched by
Mr.. Rumsey in the Potomac River at
Sir Johns Run. 1t has been proven
that he was clearly entitled to the
honor of the invention of the steam
boat. Our enterprising citizen, Mr..
ID. p. Wright, has offered to present
the above mentioned stone to the
Bath Square Trustees, provided they
erect nice pedestal to place it upon
in the Grove Berkeley Springs Ne,cs.
Inasmuch as James Rumsey's steam
boat was first given a trial at Shep-
herdstown, we think such an inter
esting relic should be located at this
place.

Death of q Former Vest Nrqnian.

DeUH VI u WmCI pCo' 80 1'""''
The Charlestown Free Press of re-
cent date contains the following in
teresting notice of the death of a
former resident of this county:
James 5. WEIGH, formerly of Welch
Il Herr, millers, in Georgetown, died
Wednesday of last week at his resi-
dence in Alexandria county, Va, at
the advanced age of seventy-siX
wears. Mr.. Welch was n native OF
Virginia and went to Georgetown
during the war Previously he had
established himself in a prosperous
milling business at Harper's Ferry,
but scarcely had the war begun when
his mills were destroyed by himself in
this way: The Confederate forces,
fearing the Federal troops would be
supplied with bread stuffs, set fire to
the mills. but the flames were extin-
guished or died out before any great
damage was done. Mr.. Welch was
visited by an officer of the Confederate
army who demanded why he eXtin-
guished the fire. Mr. Welch declared
that he had not done so and that he
would show them how to set mill
on fire, whereupon he procured can
die and placed it under the elevator
shaft and in short time his mill was
reduced to ashes. He then went to
Georgetown and carried on the mill
ing business. Mr.. Welch was well
known and highly esteemed. He
leaves six sons and five daughters.
One of the daughters married the late
DIR. Geo H. Stephenson. of Harper
Ferry.

ea..t Of tha Canal Susoension.

The Washington Evening Star says
editorially: "One of the disastrous re
sults of the closing of the Chesapeake
and Ohio Canal is felt in the fact that
persons living along its line are now
having twice as much for their supply
of Cumberland coal as they did year
ago. In other words, at points where
it used to be laid down for two dollars
and a-half per ton it now costs hve
dollars per ton in consequence OF the
higher rates of transportation by rail.
And this is but one phase of the case.
Not alone do the producers and con-
sinners of coal suffer for want of cheap
freight Equally are the farmers
along the line and the food consum'
ers who draw their supplies from that
quarter made to feel the want OF com
petition. Everything that each class
requires is greatly increased III price
in consequence of the destruction OF
the canal. And as time goes OF these
effects will be more severely felt. Inc
standing rule with railways every
where is to charge as much IN al
cases as the traffic will bear, and I'M
der this rule the scale is adjusted ac-
cording to the necessities OF the VIC
TINS. The greater the need the higher
the price. With these facts in vlew'
one would suppose that there ought
TO be found enough craftsmanship
and business sense in the legislative
assembly of Maryland to devise some
means for rehabilitating an agency
that plays so important part in the
daily life of so many OF her people.
It will be a most deplorable thing in
itself and sad commentary on the
intelligence and patriotism OF the
public men of the State if this be not
done. and right speedily"
The Cumberland (Md) Times says;
'.The temporary loss-we hope 1t Is
nothing more-of this waterway, Is
severely felt in this community, and
each day people living along the now
silent bed feel some new burden
heaped upon their shoulders, only the
more strongly and urgently demand
ing and proving that something
should be done to restore it to Its
former life OF activity. The idea
comes from shippers in New York,
and can certainly be given considera-
ton that the closing of the canal will
lift the tariff on foreign coal

The p. &. Convention.

Col VIM p. Craighill writes as fol-
lows to the Charlestown Democrat of
last week: In recalling the fact that
the coming session in October in the
city of New York is the Centennial
one of the General Convention of the
p. f. Church in the United States, it
is interesting to note the fact that the
Diocese of West Virginia is behind
none in sending among her repre-
sentatives men of centennial name
and ancestry, viz: Messrs Mason and
Tucker of the clergy, and Messrs. b.
c. Washington and f. |. Lee of the
laity, all of the county of jefferson.
That the Diocese should be thus
represented in this Convention by
able, reliable men is exceedingly de-
sirable, as several most important
subjects are to be discussed, viz: a
change of the name of the church, a
readjustment of the representation,
a revision of the hymnal, the estab-
lishment of general appellate court,
and others"
