THE NATIONS DAY OF SPORT
Since Young America has grown to
be an athlete, sculler and lover of
fast horsefesh, the character of the
Fourth of July observance has
changed until now it is the greatest
day of all the year tor field, track
and aquatic sports.
Every playground, every cinder
path and every water course draws
its thousands. There are wild shouts
and huzzas, not merely because we
are free, but because some bare-leg-
ged victor is knocking two-ffths of
a second off the record and incident
ally advertising somebody's pneu-
matte tire that is warranted to run
over tacks, nails, broken bottles and
old ladies without getting scar.
From thousands of broad fields
wells the triumphant voice of SOW
ereign multitude, not because our
forefathers thought that in the course
of human events it was time to give
the old country our opinions IN black
and white, but because the Mill
Creek base ball nine is one point
ahead and home-run hitter is COM
ing to the bat.
OF course the glorious Fourth is
still great day for general outings
but the mere pleasure of sitting down
In the huckleperry patch or Of retir-
ing to a secluded nook to hunt for
ants and other small things that may
be travelling around your stockings
has waned. Therefore the regatta
and sprint contest and the throwing
! of the hammer is down on the list Of
amusements of the sylvan retreat as
matter OF course.
Once upon a time it was sufficient
to get together a band of instru-
ments sufficiently out OF tune, and 9
strong lunged orator to tell how this
glorious country has benefited the
whole human race. Now it is thu
horse race and the base ball thai
catch the big crowds and fills tn.
grand stand and the pool-lawn, anl
the Star Spangled Banner foati
/ glorlously over all.
| Young America is strapping biz
fellow with broad chest, Drawn,
arms and nimble feet. He celebrate
his birthday 10 peaceful contests an,
the Fourth of July is the bigges
day on his sporting calendar.-Sun.

FISHING PARTY.-A number OF
young people from our city took a
day off to celebrate the "Glorious
Fourth" on Wednesday last. Form
ing themselves into a fishing party,
they prepared themselves with tackle
and bait. and went to the haunts OF
the finny tribe at Little Georgetown.
On arriving at their destination all
eager to make the. first great catch,
hurriedly cast their lines into the
river, where they were disturbed
only by the occasional pulling out
and throwing in by the one who was
supposed to be fishing. After spend
ing many weary moments in this in
teresting sport ~ they came to the
conclusion that the sun was warm,
fish were scarce, and that from pres
ent indications other things had tax
en- "a day off" So they according
ly hunted shadier hooks and more
pleasant past-times, and all had q
good time. The days outing sharp
ened the appetites Of the party, and
they made the good things which
they had along in abundance disap-
pear very rapidly. After a long
stay at the river, when the time fol
returning came, they babe it and the
fish contained therein reluctant
farewell, and started homeward very
much fatigued but with pleasant re-
membranes of the glorious day.

A CONVENTION OF OFFICERS
order has been issued from the brig
ade headquarters of the West Vir-
ginia National Guard providing for
aconvention of a board of officers of
the guard during the encampment
here for the purpose of compiling a
suitable military code to be present
ed, with the approval of Governor
MacCorkle, to the next Legislature
for it's action. The board will con-
sist of General Spillman, Col. N. E.
Fast, Lieu. Col. Clarence Smith and
Major Philip A. Shafer. of the First
Regiment, and Col. Thos. E. Hold
ges, Lieutenant Colonel Casteel and
Major Banks, of the Second Regi-
ment.
The law now bearing ON the mill
tarv is wholly inadequate to cover
the needs of the service. In a recent
test case before Judge Jackson, at
Parkersburg, it was found that SOL
diers could not even be made pay
fines for non attendance at the annual
encsmpments, and it is thought a
great many soldiers will take advan-
taee of the decision of the court and
remain away from encampment this
year.

Kimler, principal of Shepherdstown
State Normal College and D. III.
Dodd, principal of Martinsburg
fourth ward graded school, will be
the instructors. As Institute at
tendance in this State is compulsory
all the teachers and those who pro-
pose to teach should make arrange
ments to attend the full five days.
The trustees of the various school
sub-dlstricts of the county, subject
themselves to vacation of office

VAST LossEs.-The boycott insti-
t1ted in behalf OF Pullman's 5000
employees costs the strikers a large
sum of money. Their union is hard
Iy over year old, and cannot have
a large strike fund. But what it costs
them is hardly thousandth part of
its cost to various business interests.
In Chicago the figures for ice. fruits
coal and beef are mounting up. All
through the West perishable articles
on tied-up trains are netting losses to
their owners. The people who con-
sumo as we'll as those who produce
feel the result. The railroads, of
course, suffer directly. Many of
them are in receivers hands already.
Many can barely make fixed charges.
Their new losses cannot but affect
them disastrouslv. Their crippled
condition will lessen their purchases
of supplies, which means loss to
many industries. Such widespread
loss can hardly expedite the return
OF business prosperity.

THE DUTIES OF A MOTHER. She
should be firm, gentle, kind always
ready to attend to her child. She
should never laugh at him, at what
he does that is cunning never al
low him to think of his looks, except
to be neat and clean in his habits.
She should teach him to obey every
look and to respect those older than
himself. She should never make a
command without seeing that it is
performed in the right manner.
Never speak of a child's faults or
foibles, or remark before him; it is
a sure way to spoil child. Never
reprove child while excited, nor
let your voice be raised while cor
recting him. Strive to inspire love,
not dread respect, not fear. Re-
member you are training and educat-
ing soul for eternity. Teach your
child to wait upon himself; to put
away thing when through with it.
But do not forget you were once a
child. The griefs of little ones are
too often neglected, they are great
for them. Bear patiently with them
and never any way rouse their anger
lift can be avoided. Teach child to
be useful.

EARLY CLosING.-It would be a
good move on the part of all the
merchants of this city to close their
stores at I or 5 o'clock each evcn-
ing. The general public could east
ly make their purchases during the
day, and it would not be long before
purchasers would accustom them
selves to the change. The early
closing would not only give the
clerks needed rest, but would also
allow the busy merchant few hours
with his family. They should not
be expected to work until ten or
eleven O'Clock p. M, any more than
mechanics and others are.

The FouRTH.-Martins 'iurg had
no special celebration of Indepen-
dence Day other than the sn.,1 boy
and his numerous fire-crackeIs. The
picnic of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers at Inwood seemed
to be the main attraction all day and
a large number of people attended.
Trains were run every hour in the
day, and it was the most successful
picnic yet held this season. The en-
gineers made every arrangement for
convenience and comfort and all who
went spen. a pleasant day. The
Martinsburg City Band and the Ger
ardstown Band were at Inwood and
made the day lively with music.
Thompson's Orchestra furnished the
music for lovers of dancing, and it
was kept up from early morning I'M
til late at night. Mr.. q. S. G.. Pit
ger made an address on the grounds
and was greeted with the usual pop
ular ovation whenever he speaks.
Besides at Inwood there were
others who went to various places
along the railroads which gave ex-
cursion rates to all points. Some
took in Hagerstown, Chambersburg,
Winchester, Brunswick, Cumber-
land, Harper's Ferry, and a few went
as far as Woodstock, Va.
At Harper's Ferry there was a
flag raising by the Junior Order
United American Mechanics, which
order presented flags to the schools
of both Harper's Ferry and Bolivar.
Councils attended from Cumberland,
Brunswick, Martinsburg, Boonsboro,
Washington and other points. The
procession which formed at 2 p. m.
was very large one, and everything
passed off satisfactorily. The chill
dren of the Bolivar school formed
the escort for the Harper's Ferry
flag, and the children of the Har-
per's Ferry schools raised that for
Bolivar. Short addresses we're made
at each raising, and after that at the
hall and also in the evening.

MARTINsBURG VS.. BRUNSWICK
On Tuesday afternoon the Martins
burg base ball team, composed of
Pitzer, c.. Combs, p; Lamon, s. S.;
Timmons, l b.; Young, 2 b.; Zim-
norman, 8 b. Moran, r. f.; Creque,
!. f.; Slinkman, C. f., defeated the
Brunswick team by score of 81 to
/. The visitors were simply "not in
it," Not an error is chargeablc to
the home team, which put up mag
nificent game. The Brunswick team
for few innings did well after they
changed batteries but the poor bat
terry work of the regular pitcher and
catcher discouraged them from the
start and gave the home team lead
which they followed up till the score
reached thirty-one. The game was
a listless one, but at intervals there
was some nice playing to interest the
spectators. When we say that the
home team played an errorless game
we do not give TO each player the
credit he actually earned. CIRQUE
caught some good flies ard his
throwing was worthy OF note. Stink
man and Moran each fielded with ac-
tivity and had chances which they
embraced successfully. On first
base John Timmons, an old player,
held up so that nothing could pass
it. He was greeted with an ovation
every time he went to bat. Young
was made doff his cap in response
to The cheers for a double play.
Combs in the box threw a steady
ball, and when he danced his little
jig We knew the visitors were ssgone.n
Zimmerman did some good batting
and as an all around player IS most
valuable to the club. Pitzer's time
ly hits and long strikes helped more
than anything to Gil up the score.
Boys, don't loose your heads, now,
but lay for Hagerstown and Towson
and let them be two more victims.
