FIDELITY REWARDED.

A Dutiful Daughter Waits Long Time
to Wed the Husband OF her Choice.
John Donohoo, who died recently in
Bellevue Asylum, this city. was twice
married. His first wife was the daugh.
ter Of the late Mrs. Malinda Stipes, Of
Harper's Ferry. Considerable romance
is attached to the courtship Of those
two. They were lovers in their young
err days, but the dutiful daughterwould
not leave her mother, who was more
or less an invalid, to marry. But
John waited patiently, year after year,
and when, finally, old Mrs. Stipes
passed over the river, he went to Har-
per's Ferry and claimed his bride. BY
this time the locks of both were be-
ginning to show the silver threads of
time. They were married, and in less
than q year the wife joined her mother
on the shores of eternity. Thus was
John Donohoo's fidelity rewarded. He
waited until old age to realize the
dreamof his youth. Did he realize til

y. N. .. \. CONVENTION.


Yesterday was a full day at all the
churches, closing with farewell SER
vice at the First NJ. E. Church.
The day began with conservation
meeting at the Baptist Church at s
o'clock, which was well attended and
much enjoyed, and was a promise of
what would follow. Leaving this
meeting the Delegates distributed them
selves among the different Sunday
Schools, enlivening them with words
of cheer. c. B. Titus, of Washington,
conducted the morning services at the
Lutheran Church. At 2:45 p. m. the
following services were held: Meeting
for boys at the Baptist Church. This
was well attended and its immediate
fruits were manifested by seventeen
boys asking for theprayers Of the con-
vention. The meeting for women at
the Presbyterian Church was conduct
ed by James E. Pugh, of Washington.
The interest Of mothers and sisters in
the welfare Of their sons and brothers
was plainly manifested by their close
attention and earnest conntenances,
and bespoke the willingness of the
ladies of our city to aid in any effort
to redeem fallen man and protect our
youths. They were assured that an
opportunity would be given them to
help on the interests Of the Y. M. G..
A. in this place.
The meeting for men at the Central
Opera House began at o'clock and
was addressed by G. B. Titus, who
held the audience in wrapt attention
as he plead for a prompt decision for
the right, basing his remarks on the
example of John and Andrew; John
l, 81, who when they saw Jesus follow
ed Him. The meeting closed after two
young men had asked for prayers; and
the large audience reluctantly dispers-
ed.
After holding meetings in the other
churches at the regular hour for even
ing services, many repaired to the
First NJ. E. Church to be present at
the closing services Of the convention.
*
Many of the delegates spoke most en-
Enthusiastically of the blessings they had
received at the convention. These
were followed by addresses from Rev.
C. S. Trump, Rev. VIM. H. Chapman,
Rev. Al. NJ. Cackley aud Rev. j. w.
Hundley, all of whom pledged them
selves to do all in their power to make
the Y. M. C. a. in Martinsburg pow
er for good. The addresses were in
terspersed with singing by w. S. Nc
Arthur, which was most impressive.
The services closed according to
their custom, all joining hands and
singing 'sBlest be the ties that bind
our hearts in Christian love- The
delegates left on the early morning
trains having won for themselves a
largo place in the hearts of our people.
Near the close of the services Mr.. j.
g. Sims, General Sec'y, was introduced
and by a happy illustration showed
that the association in Martinsburg
though in feeble health, was in no
condition to be dissolved, but that he
would soon be here to call on the pee-
pie Of our town for help toNenable it
to carry on its work in our midst. IN
til rooms are secured meetings will be
held in the churches on Sunday after
noon at 4:15, beginning at the Luth-
eran church on next Sunday. These
meetings are for men only and a large
attendance is desired. Meeting will
begin promptly on time.
