A Young Man Accidentally Killed.

A deplorable shooting accident &C.
Cured on Wednesday of last week in
the northern part of Berkeley county,
on the Honeywood farm, by which
Henry Lloyd, who was the tenant of
the place, was shot and instantly killed
by gun in the hands of young man
named Ellis Rush. The Martinsburg
World gives the following account of
the affair:
1t seems that Lloyd and Rush, who
was in his employ, went out to finish
up the work of husking corn, and while
so engaged saw covey Of cartridges.
Lloyd sent Rush to the house to get
the guns in order to shoot some OF
them. When Rush got back the birds
had flown, and he laid the guns in the
wagon and went to work. A hawk
made its appearance and Lloyd told
Rush to get his gun and shoot it.
When he cooked it he discovered that
there was no cap on the nipple, and
as he was putting on another the ham
mer slipped from his thumb and the
gun went off, lodging the whole load
in Lloyd's forehead, killing him in
stantly. Rush was dreadfully shocked
at the sad occurrence, and after report
ing the affair gave himself up to an
officer. An inquest was held and a
verdict of accidental shooting was at
once rendered. The young men were
Oh the best terms, and very warm
friends. Young Rush had an exam
ination before a magistrate, and In
accordance with the verdict Of the jury,
and other testimony, he was promptly
acquitted of all intention to commit
murder. Young Lloyd was married
less than year ago to a daughter Of
Mr.. H. A. Miller, who is overcome
with grief at the sad and untimely
death of her husband.

Working the Flim-Flam Game.

Two sharpers visited Shepherdstown
last Monday evening and made indus
trious efforts to swindle the store
keepers by what is known as the
"fim-fam" game. They would go in
to a store, buy some cheap article, and
offer a ten-dollar bill in payment.
Then they would take the change, ask
that another bill be broken, change
their minds and say they would prefer
it differently, and by intricate manip-
ulations of the money try to puzzle
the store-keeper and finally keep a
part of it. They visited Billmyers,
Bakers and Hodges store and Rock
enbaugh's saloon, and tried the same
game on Bridge-keeper Morgan. They
got very little money here, if any.
The fellows came to this place from
Sharpsburg, where they swindled sew
eral merchants out of small sums OF
money. They travelled by horse and
buggy, and are doubtless making a
tour of the valley.

A Few Railroad Items.

A rev Railroad ltcIuS.
On January l, 1895, the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad will center the
transfer of all its west-bound freight
traffic at Brunswick, where the COM
pany has commodious yards. The re-
moval of this business to Brunswick
will probably affect about $50 employ
es at Locust Point. As many Of these
as are willing to make the change will
be sent to Brunswick.
Monday afternoon a bad freight
wreck occurred on the Baltimore q
Ohio Railroad near Orleans Cross
roads near Hancock. The car next to
the tender on an east-bound freight
broke down. Twenty cars went over
an embankmeut, crushing them into
splinters. Merchandise was scattered
about and the track was torn up.
The Cumberland Valley Railroad,
because of opposition created by the
Cumberland Valley Traction Company,
which will operate electric cars in the
Cumberland Valley, will run fifteen
extra trains on the southern part of the
road and will cut rates.
The net earnings of the Norfolk and
Western Railroad for October and for
the ten months show decrease in COM
parison with last year.

The Story Of a Robbery.

From the ChaIlestown Spirit of Tues
day: A stranger, who gives his name as
William Gibson, of Millboro, Va, was
in town Thursday and returned here
Thursday night claiming that he had
been held up and robbed on the line
of the N. & w. R. R. between here
and Ripon. He represented that he
was unable to read and had been led
by a false letter read to him at Clarks-
burg, where he had been at work, to
believe that his sister was Ill, aud was
on his way home. Another laborer
named William Curtis, whom he knew
at Clarksburg, fell in with him at Shen-
andoah Junction, and the two came to
Charlestown. Curtis gave him pat
ent hammerless gun, which was out of
order, and he had it fixed at Mr.. NJ.
S. Weller's shop. Thought he would
90 out to see Mr.. L. NJ. Long, whom he
knew, and Curtis started to go with
him. Whilst walking along the rail-
road mile or two from town, Curtis,
so Gibson states, asked to let him car
ry the gun and rest Gibson. On re-
ceiving it he stepped back and ordered
Gibson to lay down his coat with gold
watch and money, leveling the gun at
him and threatening to blow his brains
out if he did not do so. Gibson COM
piled, when Curtis made him fall back,
secured the valuables and then order
ed Gibson to take his coat and git,
which he did and came on to town.
The robber got a gold hunting-case
watch, with small chain and fat charm,
ten dollars in money, and large ring
with black set. he Is described as a
heavy-set smooth-faced man, dressed in
blue coat, striped pants over pair
of blue ones, and lead-colored flannel
shirt. Justice C. Frank Gallaher issued
warrant Friday morning and placed
II in the hands of Constable Ma
thena, but of course there was no prob
ability that the robber had stopped
long in this section. He is said to be
familiar at jumping freight trains, and
doubtless took the first opportunity by
this mode of travel to leave for other
and distant fields
