The Dreadful Tornado.

On Wednesday afternoon tornado
of an unusual character for the win
ter season passed over the country.
1t struck Shepherdstown between 3
and o clock, but did little or no dam
age. a report is circulated that sew
eral buildings were unroofed at Duff
fields, but we do not know whether it
is true or not.
At Reading, Pa, the tornado caused
dreadful havoc. A silk mill was
smashed to pieces, and couple of
hundred girls and other employees
were buried in the ruins. It's thought
at least hundred persons were killed
in Reading, while many more were
injured. Ten persons were killed in
Pittsburg, and at various other places
much property was destroyed.

CATCHING Muskrats and Skanks.

Several Shepherdstown men are
engaged in business somewhat pecul-
lar in this neighborhood, namely, the
trapping of muskrats and skunks.
The hides of the animals bring good
price, and the trappers get fair in
come for their skill and diligence.
The muskrats are caught in traps set
under water, where they are known
to congregate, and one man has
caught three or four at the same time
i'm one trap. The skunks are generally
caught in steel traps, and though con-
siderable care is taken the most sue
cessful hunter generally smells the
loudest. 1t is said that the flesh Of
both the muskrat and skunk makes
good eating, but we haven't heard OF
anybody around here testing the
truthfulness of the statement.

A SwindIe that Was Not a Swindle.

The Philadelphia Times of Tuesday
contained the following dispatch from
Frederick, Md:
Joseph ID. Baker, one of the
wealthiest residents of this county
and the president Of the Citizens
Bank, was cleverly swindled out OF
81. 900 yesterday. One of the direc-
tors of the bank wanted desirable
farm and, knowing that Mr.. Baker
was well posted on the value OF landed
property in this section asked him to
make the investment for him. a man
had called the day previous and had
offered to sell his farm, located in
Leesburg, for $4,000 Mr.. Baker knew
the section we'll and thought the prop
erty cheap. 10 make certain, how
ever, he accompanied the sleek-look-
ing farmer to Leesburg and after
looking over the property repaired to
the hotel and gave the seller check
for the money. To make certain that
there was no trouble about the title he
stipulated that the man should sleep
in the same house over night. The
latter consented, and the pair retired
at about the same hour. During the
night however, the alleged farmer
quietly skipped, made his way TO this
city and succeeded in disposing of the
check. Mr.. Baker is just $4,000 out,
for the man did not own the farm.
He had given fictitious name,
The above article also occurred in a
Baltimore paper, and Mr.. Baker ac-
cused Mr.. Alton Ii. Carly, one of the
proprietors of the Frederick Tunes,
with hainu the ant hOr Of the dis
patches. Mr.. Baker bitterly denied
the story, and sending for Mr.. Carly
asked an explanation. Before Mr..
Carly could explain matters Mr.. Baker
drew cowhide and made severe
assault upon him, inflicting considera-
BILE punishment. 1t is thought Mr..
Carly will take legal action against
Baker.

Venus and Mars.

Venus and Mars.
Two of the loveliest and most con-
spicuous objects in the sky now are
the planets Venus and Mars, which
begin to blaze brilliantly in the south
west as soon as the sun goes down.
Venus is the brighter one of the two.
Mars and Venus are of peculiar inter
est as being the planets most likely to
support life forms like those upon this
earth. In this respect Mars exceeds
Venus as an object of interest. Mars
will continue to approach the earth
until 1892, when he will be closer to
the earth than at any time since 1877,
at which time his two minute moons
were discovered. Heis quite brilliant
upon these near approaches, and In
ITO blazed with such red fury from
the heavens as to cause a general
panic.

A Very Smart Doq.

Mr.. William Moore, jefferson coun-
ty farmer, has pointer dog that has
as much sense as some people. The
other day Mr.. Moore lost one of his
gloves, and searched in vain, high and
low, for it. Finally he called his dog.
showed him the mate to the glove that
was lost, and told him to find the
glove. The intelligent animal at once
began a systematic search about the
barn and adjoining fields, and in a
short time returned triumphantly car
rying the lost glove in his mouth.
