The Glorious Fourth.

The Fourth of July was an ideal
day in this section, so far as the
weather was concerned. 1t was not,
however, wildly exciting day. Three
or four picnics were held by the
young people and those of an older
growth, while still others went TO Ha-
gerstown 70 see the celebration there.
The river also had its visitors who
angled for big fish and little. All day
the small boy and his fire-cracker fit
fully disturbed the quiet Of the town.
At night display of fireworks on the
hill drew a crowd, which was scat
tered somewhat when an unlucky
spark got where it should not have
gotten and set a lot of them off to-
gether. Jacob Wintermoyer had his
usual tub of lemonade on tap, and a
few flags floated here and there from
the houses and stores.

PostoHce Affairs.

The annual review of the salaries
of presidential postmasters has been
completed by the first assistant post
master general, and Shepherdstown
is reduced from a presidential to a
fourth-class office after one year
standing in the former class. Charles
ton, this State, is raised from $500
to 81, 700, Fairmont from $1,700 TO
$500, Keyser from $1,000 to S1,4OO,
Martinsburg from $1,000 to $4,000,
Parkersburg from $1,000 to $4,000,
while other turns show slight gains
or losses.
1t is matter Of regret that Shep-
herdstown shows a falling off. One
cause of the reduction is, we believe,
the removal of the Office Of the Secre-
tary of the State Board of Agricul-
ture from this place to Charleston.
Its removal is largely due to the ac-
ton Of some of the people of this com
munity, however so they are also re
sponsible for the descent Of the post
office to the fourth class.
The number Of presidential offices
in West Virginia is twenty-five. The
receipts last year amounted to
S2lO,811.47. Postmasters salaries
amounted to S42, 200

Who MH Put Up the Money ?

There is some talk in the newspa-
pers about equipping the Chesapeake
& Ohio canal with an electric plant
and propeIlinE the canal-boats by
electricity. A canal official is quoted
as saying that if the experiment now
being tried on the Erie canal proves
successful the system will probably
be introduced on the G. & o. The
system would cost about $3.50, 900, be
sides 5000 for dynamo for each boat.
The great question is, Where is that
$3.50, 900 to come from We are pref
ty sure the b. & O. Railroad will not
furnish it, nor will the bondholderS
or the State of Maryland. 1t will be
many year before the bray Of the
mule gives place to the whir Of the
dynamo, and far in the future the
latest and most picturesque style Of
cussing may be heard on the tow
path.

Death Loves q ShInLnd Mark.

After three months Of suffering from
spinal meningitis, Elizabeth, the four
year-old daughter of Rev. and Mrs.
Charles Ghiselin, died at the home of
her parents in Shepherdstown last
Monday night about ten o'clock. She
had been growing much worse during
the past week, and when God took
her to himself it was a welcome relief
to the worn little frame that had en-
dured 80 much. \ sweeter child than
Elizabeth, is seldom seen. Her pure,
bright face reflected her immaculate
soul and angelic disposition, and her
quaint, sweet ways endeared her to
all who came in contact with her.
Her death is a crushing blow TO her
fond parents, who were bereaved two
years ago of their eldest son John.
They have the heartfelt sympathy of
all the people of this community, who
can only pray that they may have
that consolation which cometh alone
from Him who doeth all things well.
The funeral services were held in
the Presbyterian Church Wednesday
afternoon, and were conducted by
Rev. F. NJ. Wood, Of Martinsburg,
and Rev. DR.. a. G. Hopkins, Of
Charlestown. a very large crowd at
tended the services. The remains
were laid to rest in Elmwood Gene
terry.

Capt. II. f. Barnhart, formerly OF
this place but now OF Roanoke, Va,
died at the residence Of her uncle, Mr..
r. S. NJ. Hoffman, in this place, Tues
day evening. Her mother had
brought her to Shepherdstown a cou-
pie of weeks ago with the hope that
change would be beneficial to her
failing health, but the hope was vain.
Only a tempOraryimprovement could
be noted, and Monday she became so
much worse that her father was tele-
graphed for He was pever to see
her alive again, though, for as the
shades of evening fell her spirit re-
turned to the God who gave it. Her
father arrived couple of hours after
her death Alice was about thirteen
years of age, and is aforementioned
here as child of most lovable dispo-
sition. She is the second child Capt.
and Mrs. sBarnhart have lost since
they left Shepherdstown. their young
est daughter Louise, having died a
year or two ago.
The funeral was announced for five
o'clock Thursday afternoon at the
home Of Mr. Hoffman, to be conducted
by Rev. C. II. Hockey, of the Luther
