dressed in sailor costume and carried II

attracted an immense throng TO the banks

The CITY Electric Light Company
of Charlestowu is in difficulty. The
plant has not been in operation for
some months on account Of scarity
of finances. and its troubles seem to
be now about TO come to u head.
Messrs. w. j. and y. II. Shepherd, of
Shepherdstown, on Tuesday put up
at public sale Sl2, 800 of first mort
gage bonds of the company, which
they were forced to buy themselves
Mt ten cents on the dollar 1t is now
likely that the mortgage will be fore
closed in the near future. We should
like to see the electric light plant re
moved to Suepherdstowu. 1t would
be much more likely TO be- a paying
institution here than at Charlestown,
where it has TO compete with gas. II
the Messrs. Shepherd would buy it
and locate it at Shepherdstown they
would not only be doing a good thing
for their own home but would. We
believe, stand IA good chance of real
ling on theirinvestmeut. The assets
of the company are estimated at
&c. 600, with liabilities largely in excess
of that sum

Accidents.

Yesterday while Express Agent
James L. Barnhart was standing in
his wagon delivering some express
packages his horse gave a sudden
start, throwing Mr. Barnhart heavily
to the ground. He struck upon his
shoulder, and at first did not seem to
be much hurt. In u few moments,
however, he tainted, and was uncOn-
scious for an hour or two, presumably
from the shock occasioned by the
fall. We are glad to report that he i
able to be out again today.
Last Saturday while RoIlie Myers,
son of Mr.. James NJ. Myers, was TAX
