A Close Coll.

IIOSe GuH.
Last Saturday evening Mr.. Charles
l.. Barnhart, of Duffields, had a very
narrow escape from losing his life.
He had been in Shepherdstown, and
as he was crossing the Shenandoah
Valley Railroad track at the south
edge of town a freight train came
rapidly down the grade upon him.
The horse was upon the track when
Mr.. Barnhart saw the danger. He
quickly jerked the animal back, but
the cross beam at the front of the
engine struck the horse and threw it
TO one side and knocked the buggy
over on top Of Mr.. Barnhart, who had
jumped out when the horse was struck.
Although the horse was hurt and the
buggy smashed, Mr.. Barnhart luckily
escaped without much injury. The
engineer went on at rapid rate
with his train, and never stopped to
inquire into the damage.

Came from Virginia.

Iume ToW SHy"Wo'
A couple who arrived here at four
o'clock Thursday morning from Nir-
ginia, via Shenandoah Valley Rail
road, attracted considerable attention
on the part Of our citizens. They
came to get married. The groom
carried lantern, about the size OF
one of our old street lamps, but was
prevailed upon by the railroad EN-
plovees to leave the lantern at the
depot until after the ceremony. The
couple proceeded down street, the
groom with his arm around the
brides waist, until he was called off
by some envious youCgster. They
stirred Clerk Oswald out shortly
after five o'clock, and after the mar
riage ceremony walked around town,
hand in hand eating peanuts. There
about the entire proceedings that
was quite amusing. After the couple
were married and had taken the re
turn train for home, Clerk Oswald re-
ceived a telegram from the brides
father. instructing him not to issue
a license but to place his daughter,
who gave her age az seventeen, in the
custody of the chief of police. From
this it would appear that it was
another runaway tch.-Hdgerstown

To Build the BRIDGE.

To Build the Bridge.
The Maryland Legislature passed
the bill last week TO forfeit the
charter of the Maryland and Virginia
Bridge Company unless the bridge at
Shepherdstown was repaired within
a reasonable time. We understand
that the company will at once take
steps looking TO the erection of a new
bridge, and the stockholders have
been in consultation with representa-
tives of builders the past week. 1t is
generally believed that the wooden
structure that was carried away by
the flood of last June will be replaced
by an iron bridge, which will be
placed higher than the old one
above the water

BIRTHDAY Dinner.

Birthday Dinner.
Last Monday was the birthday Of
Mr.. j. Will Taylor, who lives a couple
of miles below town, and in accord
ance with custom of long standing
he entertained his friends with fine
dinner. The usual snow fell, as it
always does on this occasion, but it
did not keep any of the invited guests
away. The dinner was splendid
one, such as we have heretofore de-
scribed in these columns, and the
artistic style in which il was demol-
lshed showed that no one failed to
appreciate the skill of Mrs. Taylor
and her assistants There was con-
sidera BILE discussion of the question
as TO who was entitled TO the belt
awarded TO the biggest eater. The
contestants were Mr.. j. NJ. Hendricks
and Mr.. +. ii. Reinhart. On the first
vote Mr.. Reinhart was ahead, but on
the final count, with all present vot-
ing, the belt was given TO Mr.. Hen
bricks by an overwhelming majority.
On motion of Col. Morgan the vote
was made unanimous in favor of Mr.
Hendricks-and we think very prop
erly, for he certainly kept the walters
busy. Its great pity Mr.. Taylor's
birthdays cannot come oftener.

4 BrIQht Fire.

Just as people were leaving prayer
meeting Wednesday evening Of this
week the cry Of fire was raised, and
a bright light at the southeast edge
of town caused hurrying in that di-
rection. A shed just opposite the
toll -gate, thar was owned and used
by Mr.. John II. Snyder as a store
house for farming implements, etc,
was in full blaze. 1t soon burned
down, a ton of hay which it contained
making the hottest sort of fire. Be
sides the hay, there was burned about
1000 shingles, a wheat drill, mower
u couple of harrows, etc. No insur-
ance.

CATCHING the Thieves.

On Wednesday morning our quiet
l;t+la village was considerably ex-
cited over the news that the mystery
surrounding the many petty robper-
les committed in this place during
rho mast two or three months, had
been fathomed and a band OF young
burglars. composed of five Of Charles
towns youths, captured. For some
time past the business men and
property holders in this place have
been greatly annoyed by frequent
depredations of this character
but not until the B. & o. X. K. ware
house was entered and robbed was
any active step taken to detect the
guilty parties. Soon after this rob-
berry, the b. & o. Company sent Mr..
Jos. Hutchinson, of Baltimore, one Oh
their best detectives, here, who IN
very short time struck the right trail,
and sufficient evidence accommodating,
on Tuesday night, assisted by Sar-
geant Young and Constable Matheny,
arrested George Fry, Vernon Weller,
Slacle Souders, Edward Allen ana
Howard Fidinger, all under age, ana
of reputable families.
When Weller was arrested he pro-
duced a wooden box from the cellar
of his fathers residence, containing
q portion of all the goods stolen,
which had been placed in his hands
for safe keeping. Before Magistrate
Howell, Wednesday morning, Fry
and Fidinger turned States evidence
and confessed TO the robbing of the
magazine of Beall 4 Phillips. the Is.
& O. warehouse and the store-room
of Mr.. II. p. Lippitt. Their evidence
more or less duplicating the other
three, all five were remanded to jail
to await the action of the Grand
Jury. There is not a palpable reason
assigned for the actions OF these
youths, and since they all had
pleasant homes and were we'll cared
for by their parents, pure deVllmcht
must nave been solely their motlye.
Inc parents, stricken by the disgrace
OF their SONS, have the sympathy OF
the community. The law of justice
must pursue its impartial course, but
il is hoped that in consideration OF
their extreme youthfulness their pun
ishment may be tempered with the
reatest possible leiniency.- Charles

On Friday week ago the trunk OF
one Of the boarders at Mr.. Hatnaway's
hotel at the IL. y .. Depot, was open
ed and watch valued at $50 was
taken. Suspicion attached to two
parties, man named Wright and his
son, who originally came from some
point in jefferson county, and have
been loaling in this community for
some months past. The young man
had obtained access to Mr.. Hatha-
ways hotel upon u representation
that he was then employed on the
road and desired boarding. lmme-
diately after the robbery both of these
individuals suddenly departed from
our midst, but the officers being on
their trail, had them arrested at Cum
berland, Md. When found, the
watch was in their possession and
identified by the owner.-AattnsbW9
