THEIR CRUELTY COST THEM s2l 45.

Two men from Martinsburg came
down to Shepherdstown Tuesday af-
ternoon III buggy drawn by a nice
booking sorrel horse. BY making the
time between drinks very short they
quickly managed to get quite drunk.
Then they amused themselves by
driving the already weary horse around
the town, beating it cruelty when it
could no longer travel fast enough to
suit them. Their brutality to the
poor animal finally caused their arrest
BY Sergeant johnson. The men were
placed in jail and the horse put in a
livery stable. Later Mayor Ray very
properly taxed them each ten dollars
and costs, and when they had forked
S2l.45 they were released j! They
quickly started for home, one Of them
weeping bitterly at his unfortunate
experience. -Shepherdstown Register,

Are All Men Afraid in Battle9

Testimony differs as to the feeling Of
the soldier on going into fight, and
the many experiences related during
the recent encampment by Grand
Army men to their always willing
listeners showed that in their war his
tories there was no uniformity of either
fear or daring. The Major of New
Hampshire regiment said: Il always
felt timid when the shot began to reach
US, but as soon as we got into action
was carried away by excitement. I
am not usually profane man, and
have no recollection of talking roughly
TO my troops, yet good many of them
have assured me that all through a
fight would swear ike-well, like a
trooper" Another man, Colonel,
said: Its all nonsense to say that a
man doesn't feel afraid at the begin
ming of fight and all through it. Of
course he does. He has reason. Sher-
man said of Gen. Summer that he was
the only man who grew bolder as he
grew older, but the only man | ever
saw who really seemed to want to fight,
and enjoy it after he was in it, was

Prairie Dogs Kill Snakes.

It is often remarked that owls, prai-
RE dogs and rattlesnakes live AMIGA
bly, together in one hole, which the
prairie dog is supposed to have pre-
pared. In order to test the question
of the peaceful relations between the
dog and the snake an old army officer
tells me that he once turned rattler
loose in his room, says the Scientific
american.
Opening the cage of the prairie dog
the little fellow at once came out and
ran back and forth immediately in
front of the reptile, which was coiled
with its head poised ready to strike
the dog. The snake followed the dogs
movements with its head. The dogs
eyes were constantly directed toward
the snakes eyes.
After time the movement of the
snakes head from side to side grew
slower. 1t seemed to have become
confused or dizzy from the continued
exercise. With a quick spring the dog
seized the snakes neck close to the
head and bit it viciously. He contin-
ued biting the snake along the spinal
cord from neck to tail, the first bite
having practically ended the snakes
life.
When the dead re- title was swung
to and fro from the bars of the dogs
cage the animal tried to ward it of
with his fore feet. These actions con-
vinced the officer that the dog appre
ciated the dangerous qualities of the
snake.
This observer also thought tha
snakes did not strike adult dogs wher
living with them, because the hole
We're too small to maneuyer in.

She Was Grateful.

We were nearing Jacksonville, Fla,
after the long trip from New York.
The porter had finished brushing off a
mother and her four children, each
one of whom had demanded attention
every fifteen minutes, when the woman
turned and said:
"You have been very attentive to US
during the trip and | wish to reward
YOU"
"Yes'um."
"What is your name?" she asked, as
she took out pencil and notebook.
"William White, num-"
She wrote for minute on one of
out and handed it to him with the re-
mark:
"A colored man who is ambitious to
get along will always find friends"
I caught him in the vestibule two
minutes later and asked to see the pa
per. It read:
"Mr. Pullman: Your man William
White has been very attentive to ME
and my children and I would recon-
mend that you increase his salary and
let him know that you fully appreciate
his efforts. Mrs. S. B."
read it aloud to the porter and
then looked at him. He gasped for
breath and it was long minute be-
fore he could ejaculate:
"Befo' de Lawd! but I dun thought
dat was $15 check on some bank in
Jacksonville. HUI! Shoe! Wall, OF

make horizontal reduction that
will move them at once.
We are not prone to indulgence in
sensational head lines or extravagant
boasting, but 50 at this time and place"
positively assert that we shall place
lower prices on Carpets than they were
ever before sold for in Portage County
"a bona fide cost basis.
"There is reason in all things" and
our reason for this sacrifice in price is
that we want the room for our Fall
stock.
Now is your opportunity. You will
scarcely have another such an one in

1t will pay you to anticipate your

We mention in particular our large

Couldn't Trust the Boy.

A Lewiston man with the collie went
into downtown drug store Wednes-
day, where he had been accustomed to
do business with the proprietor. A
aew clerk confronted him. "Where's
Mr.. B." said he to the clerk. Hes
out. Anything 1 can do?" The gen.
tleman hesitated and looked at the
clerk. He was an immature youth
with self-contident look about him.
If the gentleman were not generous
and considerate he might term him
''fresh." "Wel," said the Lewiston
gentleman, Il don't know. Do you
know anything about the businessp
You see I've been accustomed to deal
with Mr.. B. Fact is, Pm not feel
ing well. l have a return of cholera
attack. Mr.. B usually gives me
some hot drops. Do you know any
thing about it?" The youth looked at
his first patient as though he had been
in the business fifty years and had
killed regiment of patients. 90 yes.
Let's see. You've got a kind O. chol-
era infantum, amt yer, way down low
in yer stomach?" The Lewiston man
looked at the youth as he handled the
bottles, and he asked: "You needn't
mind, young man. You've located
the pain, all right, but Pm too old to
be treated for that disease by young
man who is liable to be curled up with
it at any moment" The clerk doesn't
know now what the customer meant.

WAS "A VALUABLE MULE.
Not Even q Barbed Wire Fence Gould
Withstand His Righteous Indignation.

"Your mule has no use for barb
wire fence, l tell you," said Bill Vest
night before last, as he sat on the pave
ment in a big armchair and talked
to st. Louis Globe Democrat reporter.
"a mule" he went on to say, "kin git
away with any post-and-rail fence in
the country I've seen 'em many a
time let down pair of bars with their
teeth. A seven-rai1 stake-and-rider
fence worries the animal now and then,

ROMANCE or A CAR.
How a Lead Pencil Cut Prominent
Figure In the Joining of Two Young
Lives.

She was dainty bit of gauze-like
humanity, pink, white and gold, but
somehow she did not seem out of place
in the crowded railroad coach, although
a sylvan dell for background would
have been more in keeping with her
particular style. Both bashful and
nervous she was, the first quality an in-
heritance from some Quaker ancestor,
the second the inevitable result of be-
ing born in these latter days.
She felt rather than saw that the
young man who took the vacant seat
beside her was a tall, blonde, good
natured youth, but what she did not
either feel or see was the fact that he
was making his way to the smoking
car when, catching sight of type so
attractive, he could not resist even for
cigar the pleasure of at least sitting
near it for half an hour.
While she was anxiously running
over the commissions in her little
silver-bound note book, her pencil
slipped and rolled under the opposite
seat far out of sight.
won't you take mine; I'm afraid it
would be useless to try and recover
yoursP" her neighbor asked, and with
a demure smile she accepted.
After scribbling few lines, the sense
of which it would have been impossible
to make out, she offered to return the
pencil. "Please keep it if it will do you
the least good, I have another" he
begged, and finding it easier to comply
than to refuse she put it with her note
book into her sachel.
"Oh, Nellie! did you come for that
queer pencil you left here?" exclaimed
next day a friend at whose house she
had attended card party the evening
of her adventure and where she had
used the pencil to keep the accounts
with.
"Well, it's gone," continued hel
friend. "Ned Brewster, from the city,
called here an hour ago and, seeing it,
claimed it. told him the pencil be.
lenged to friend of mine, and he be.
gan asking all sorts of questions about
| you and ended by making me promise
to introduce him to you. He kept the
pencil, saying he would return it him
self"
Did he keep his word?
