ses became frightened and ran

One of Morgantown's prettiest
young girls is becoming quite a
snake charmer. While walking in
the University campus she came
upon snake about three feet long
and after striking it with switch
she wound it around her neck, to
the delight of the snake no doubt,
and horror of her girl friends, who
simply "died of fright. "-Domln-

The impression has gone out that
the young man named Thrasher ar
rested few weeks ago at Deer
Park for robbing the express office
was son of Mr.. Jacob Thrasher.
Such is not the case. The young
man arrested was son of BENZ.
Thrasher. This correction is made
in justice to Mr.. Will Thrasher, sr. =,
who is an uncle to the arrested
party.
Mr.. s. d. Yoder has purchased
from gentleman in Ohio an Ok
ford-dowil ram which weighs four
hundred pounds, and 1t is now at
his Chestnut Grove stock farm near
Grantsville. This animal is reg
istered ram, No. 1549. and has
taken the first prize at every fair at
which he has been exhibited. He
is six years old and will be used for
breeding purposes.
Among the incidents OF childhood
that stand out in bold relief, as our
memory reverts to the days when
we were young, none are more
prominent than severe sickness.
The young mother wildly remem-
bers that it was Chamberlain 8
Cough Remedy cured her of Group,
and in turn administers it to her
own offspring and always with the
best results. For sale by druggists.
1t is asserted that number of
fraudulent pensions have been de-
tected in Baltimore. Of them it is
claimed that Richard Wiley has
been drawing pension for years
without ever having been in the
army. Edward Graham has been
holding two pension certificates,
drawing pension on both, while
Edward Egan mas been drawing the
pension of Eugene Eagan, bona
fide veteran.
Amelia Rivers Chandler is happy
in the serene conviction that she is
beautiful. She "is devoted to her
own beauty and to beautiful women
in general" At least so she is
quoted. Furthermore, like Marie
Bashkirtseff. she reyels in admira-
ton of her own face and figure, and
she says that she thanks God daily
for his gift of loveliness. twill be
seen that Amelie has no lingering
doubts on the matter.
the Worlds Fair will have no
pleasant memories for Mr.. Henry
Weber, of Philadelphia, who is re-
ported to have been robbed of $500
by two women in Chicago. Mr..
Weber is said to have been enticed
into dark hallway and while one
of the women engaged his attention
by talking the other cut his wallet
from his inside pocket. For an
eastern city man the victim seems
to have been remarkably unsophis-
ticated.
Mr.. Charles Hilleary, of Garrett
county, is prominently mentioned
for the nomination for the House Of
Delegates at the hands of his party
Republican. Mr.. Hilleary is a
number one young business man,
and would make an acceptable rep
resentative for his county. He has
a great number Of friends among
the farmers, and would especially
look after their interests. Pied
