SHOOKSTOWN.

Jan. ., 1870.
AS we have bid farewell to the dying
year, let us enter upon the new with
brighter hopes and stronger resolutions.
Let us day by day gain in knowledge
aud virtue, and although it may seem
but little, yet when the end of the pres
ent year approaches, we will scarcely
realize what q storehOuSe of knowledge
we have founded, and how well we are
rewarded for every kind act. Selfish
ness has grown to be the monster of
the present age, and by tracing back
we will find it to be the cause of every
difficulty. If people would be kind
and love each other as neighbors
should, and let equality" stand aloft
as their ruling star, by the time we are
about TO enter upon another year We
would find happiness reigning every
where, and our needy poor well cared
for.
The weather. at present is simply tel
rible. Continual rain and thawing
snow make our county roads very
much like a river bed. Nevertheless,
pleasure is always costly, and after ell
joying a few weeks of excellent sleigh
ing. how unjust we would be to muir
mur against a few rainy days. Ice has
been very plentiful, and our farmers
have stored away supply. Ice had
reached the thickness of about one foot.
Some ponds were completely frozen
through during that wintry blast.
Miss Katie Barton, of Thurmont,
spent few days of last week at the
home of your correspondent Owing
to the unpleasant weather, she was un-
able to enjoy the interesting features of
your city and surroundings.
Mr.. j. f. Summers left Frederick for
Baltimore on Christmas eve, where he
spent the holidays with his daughter,
Mrs NJ J. Haelbeck. He returned on
Thursday last well pleased with his
visit.
Mr.. George McKinzie, who was
thought to have been seriously injured
in the b. 80. Railroad accident, near
Mr.. Groves lime kips, has greatly
improved and is able to walk about
again. A full account of this accident
has already appeared in the CITIZEN,
50 ii is needless to state more concern
ing the affair, excepting that our black
smith, Mr.. Edward Staley, is repairing
the wagon and is finding 1t in worse
condition than was expected. Suffice
1t to say, that they We're very lucky in
getting off even as well as they did
with this accident.
Our public school has resumed its
studies, rs usual, after the holiday fes-
tivity. We have large number on

THURMONT.
January 9th. 1895


After nine days of good sleighiug-slush
well, who cares; nine days in a stretch of real
good sleighing is something to brag Of any
how.
very heavy shower of hail. just at the
dawn of day, on last Sunday morning, proved
to be preliminary to an all-day rain, and an
ideal day of rest, which, unquaiiedly it was.
Mr.. John G. Weller is confined to the house
with an attack of pleurisy.
Mr.. Christian Harman is spending the
winter with Mr.. Samuel j. Scotts family, in
Phipsburg, Pa.
Mr.. and Mrs VIM Six are spending the
winter with Mr.. and Mrs. Howard Schneur,
Seinsgrove, Pa.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Shipley are wintering
in Baltimore.
Levi Boring, aged 81 years, whose death
occurred at the home of his son-in-law, Mr..
Frank Webb, in the vicinity of Eicholtz's
mill, was buried in Emmitsburg yesterday.
Soon as the snow and frost round about
town disappears, there will be available for
sale, low, 2,000,0 900 perches cobble-stones.
Our roads up here will not need recoating I'M
ill the year 1873
Should the Western Maryland r. r at any
time become snow-bound or otherwise dis
abed, and, likewise the county roads, there
might occur flour and feed famine in Thur
mont. We might, in connection herewith,
mention that good Touring mill located
here would be highly appreciated by our people.
Owing to our monied citizens not seeing
their way clear to subscribe to the stock of
the American Signal Co.'S. Works, which are
located here, or owing to their tardiness in
doing so, this very desirable industry will
most likely soon be classed with the already
long lstof obsolete industries of this section.
Hail, rain and snow, alternately aud mixed,
characterized Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and
to-day in thiszsection of country, and the end
seems not yet.

The rain and warm south wind
which have prevailed since last even
in have spoilt the sleighing, which
was most excellent
Nearly everybody has his ice-house
filled; in fact, we never knew of so
much ice being gathered in so short a
time
We are glad to know that Mr.. Eli
Haugh, a clerk in S. b. Ferris store
of this place, who has been ill from
diphtheria, is again out. This dreaded
disease is still lingering in our neigh
borhood. Five of MIR. Morningstar's
children, here in town, were sick with
the same disease, but all are now bet
ter.
The remains of the dear little daugh-
er of Mr.. Oliver Norris, living about
three miles west of here, were brought
to Beaver Dam Cemetery, near here,
on Wednesday last, for interment. Ell

had been her teacher in the public

little Emma was but l3 years of age,
he said she was Undoubtedly the
brightest child he had ever taught in
his long school experience. She leaves
a Kind father and mother with many
friends to mourn her loss.

Another Effort.

Another effort is being made by the
citizens of Middletown Valley to resur-
rect the corpse of the Electric Railway
proposition, which, like the Democratic
party, was so completely showed un-
der, with some prospects Of success If
the chances of the future of the railroad
were as bright as those of the political
party referred to, we would expect tn
ride next summer to "Braddock
Heights" 'MIddletown," and on t,
Hagerstown. A little confidence is all
that is necessary. If enough money is
subscribed the projectors will guaran-
tee the success of the enterprise.

Mr.. Emanuel Eckenrode and son,
of Mt. st. Mary's, Md, paid brief
call at the home of your correspondent,
Friday evening. After visiting some
OF their friends at this place, they re-
turned Saturday.
Mr.. and Mrs f. L. Summers, of this
place, spent Friday last with friends
near New Market. Md. They returned
in the evening well satisfied with their
trip. but most frozen by their drive.
The lawsuit of Mr.. Wickless vs. Con
SO. of this place. causes much comment
at present. Quite variety of ideas
are expressed concerning the contest,
many of which are as vague as others
are noticeable.
Through these dismal winter months
we find it very hard to furnish news,
but when the bright days of spring
once more arrive, then we hope to find
items that will be more interesting
than those of my present letter.

Two Lives Saved.

Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction
City, ILL.,, was told by her doctors she
had Consumption and that there was
no hope for her, but two bottles of DR..
Kings New Discovery completely
cured her and she says it saved her
life. Mr.. Thomas Eggers, 139 Flor
ida street, San Francisco, suffered
from a dreadful cold, approaching
Consumption, tried without result
everything else, then bought one
bottle of DR.. Kings New Discovery
and in two weeks was cured. He is
naturally thankful. 1t is such results,
of which these are samples, that prove
the wonderful efficacy of this medicine
in Coughs and Colds. Free trial bottles

To Help the Poor.

In the vicinity of Point of Rocks,
this county, exist number of cases of
destitution and pitiable want. The
great need seems to partake of the ma
ture of clothing, and the local minis
ter, Mr.. Trapnell, has called upon Rev.
Osborn Ingle, of all Saints Episcopal
Church. this city, to render whatever
assistance was in his power. Public
attention was called to the matter, and
large box of supplies was forwarded
for distribution. 1t is to be hoped that
every effort will be made in all places
to help and succor the poor and unfor-
tunate, especially in this season of cold
and discomfort, for the Lord says
Blessed is he who giveth in My
name.u

home wedding occurred at the resi-
dence of Mr.. VIM. l.. Guyton, at Ar

OF Middletown. The contracting par
ties We're Mr.. Ohrum A., son of Mr.

place, and Miss Lovetta c.. daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Guyton. The cere-
mony was performed by Elder David

Willie Guyton and Samuel Zecher,
and the bridesmaids Miss Daisy Flock

the nuptials a delicious dinner was

Ice For the B. & o.

Mr.. John Il. Best. our progressive
farmer, was engaged recently in fur
nishing ice for the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company, cutting the same
from Bush Creek, which runs for a
great distance parallel with the tracks
of the above road. The ice was at
least ten (lO) inches thick and of re-
marlxable clearness and solidity. Quite
a number of cars were loaded with the
chrystalized liquid, and it is probably
the first time the company has placed
an order in this county.

such man as Judge Vinson was
