Grassy Lick Road.

AS there seems 10 be so much In.
terest taken In the Grassy Lick road
by not only those who live on or near
it; but by travellers from abroad {;
and as the road is SO much Travelled
and is through a very thickly settled
portion OF our county. it seems that
some other provision should be acted
on than the present county road-Iaw
system. The road Is used more than
our National Turnpike and should
be made toll road. It would then
be more useful and beneficial 10 the
county. and believe, paying one
as the travel would increase as least
40 per cent. Then again there should
be several important roads through
the county where they are interSecied
by so many minor roads from farms
&c. Our citizens then could reach
and would intersect the principal
road with but little labor and all the
farmers would have the benefit OF q
good road TO their marketing place.
provided they keep In good repair
the road leading from their farms 20
the toll road. Where counties are
large AID mountainous, the law
should provide for several important
roads If possible. without mourning
too much expense and then tbe citi-
zons could not complain about their
roads as they are regulated and bss-
Cd upon the amount OF travel.

APPROPRIATION FOR WORLDS FAIR.
There is joint resolution before
the Legislature, OF Charleston, TO ap.
propriate 100000 for the purpose Of
exhibiting West Virginia's resources
at the worlds fair at Chicago in 1892.
Hea PiTgiaia's resources ? What re-
sources has West Virginia in her sge
gregate character 2 As body poli.
nc. what has she TO exhibit there ?
1t would be we'll for the gentlemen
representing the people at Charles
ton, to ponder the above questions
very carefully before passing that res.
olutiou. Gentlemen would do we'll to
consult the chart Of their powers-the
constitution-before voting away the
peoples money for such an object.
West Virginia is rich in mineral
wealth. rich in timber. and capable OF
making good agricultural showing,
which would be on index to her ge
NAL climate and fertile soil. We are
proud Of oil this and sine rely wish
that all our interests and sour
ces of wealth may be represented at
the fair. But what is the fac. about
the whole matter? ALI the valuable
minerals, lands, and timber lands in
the State now are or soon will be-
in the possession Of our own million
aires, (and we use the term in no Of
fensive sense), and therefore what di-
rect profit can individuals derive from
the exhibition OF our Goals, ores and
timber ? Would it not be more con-
bistenA aud equitable, for those gen.
tlemen who are to be the direct ben
eficiaries of the exhibitions at Chica-
go, to pay the expenses ? For in
stance what has Hampshire, Hardy
Mineral, Grant Morga:., Berkeley,
OF Jefferson and many others tc
gain ?

PHILADELPHIA, May 5--rhc desperate
efforts that were made to save the Key

seemed to promise success, have failed
simply because the exact truth resnecting
its affairs was kept back Every tiine that
one known condition of affairs had been
provided for another difficulty would arise
and now it is known that the bank cannot
be saved Whether depositors will get
their money Is now very doubtful, and
several large mercantile establishments are
in danger i'll consequence.
The former president, the late John Z.
Lucas, engaged m speclllati0ns amounting
to over one million dollars, all Of which
by his sudden death We're saddled upon
the bank. The arrest of President Marsh
and Cashier Lawrence is in consequence Of
false reports the bank examiner made to
conceal Lucas operations. The Keystone
Bank has always been intimately ASSOC
eiated with the city treasury and with CON
tractors for city work, and there is much
talk about coercye measures used to com.
pei contractors TO deal with the bank. All
these rllmors are now being investigated
by Il councils committee and the business
Of the bank itself will be subject to Judi
cial inquiry.

Two Lads Capsize in the Elk River and
are Drowned.

ELKToN, Mn, May 3.-.Tames Bolton

early in the afternoon to sail down the
river. The wind was blowing very strong
at the time and the water was rough.
They had hardly gotten more than well
under way when the boat was capsi2ed
and both the youths. We're thrown into the
water.
Captain William Lort, who was at Clays
store, half Il mile distant, saw the accident
and made every effort to reach the unfor-
tunate young men in time to render assist
ance, but was unsuccessful. After hard
struggle with the waves the youths disap-
peared from sight, and when Captain Lort
reached the spot he found the boat upset
and only the hats Of the two young men
tloating near Both the youths were mem
beers OF Crouches Chapel Sunday-school.
Bolton had been directed to so TO school

CHEsTERTowN, Mn, May 3.-The village
of Rock Hall is stirred up by the violent
death of sailor during row in boat in
Swan creek under circumstances which
have led to the arrest Of another sailor
charged with killing him. 1t seems that
Captain Dave Hynson left Rock Hall last
week on the bugeye Mary Antoinette and
went to Curtis Bay after the sloop Hinkle.
The boats We're dashed together. brought
to Rock Hall and anchored off Dawson's
shipyard arriving Friday morning, Some
bricks were aboard, and were being I'M
loaded by three men, while two other men
sat talking and one other was asleep. Dur
ing the absence of three of the men ashore
a man was drowned and found Saturday
morning under the bow of the Hinkle.
A jury Of inquest was summoned by
Justice wilkins, with Charles Strong as
foreman. After hearing the evidence the
Jury decided that the man came to his
death from injuries received from the
hand of Burke The drowned man had
a long cash one inch deep across his right
eye and his face was bruised very much.
The. jury. supposed he was struck by
brick, as it fitted the wound exactly. DR..
s. G. Fisher examined the body and said
the man died from hemorrhages resulting
from the blow. The body was buried at
Deep Landing. A large pool of blood was
found on the deck, and blood on the sails,
rigging and mast.
The name of the deceased was ascer-
tanned TO be William Gardner, from Port
Tobacco Charles county, aged 30 years,
single. Several parties were arrested and
taken to Jail in Chestertown. The names
of these persons are: Lawrence Burkhardt
of Baltimore, who is charged with the
homicide; Fred Woods, Captain Tom
Scheminant, Robert j. Connolly, of Balti-
more, and John Gallon, witnesses.
