of the "dollars Of our daddies." 1t has
not been in circulation tor many years
aud Is one huudret and one years old
Mr.. Fravel treasures it as a suyenir OF the
honesty of our fathers who made dollars
that were worth sl.03 each. He, how
ever, still chngs to the old democratic
doctrine of dollars that are worth one

after the free coinage dollars OF the
present dsy.
Mr.. Henry Bailey and wife and Mr..
.Tno. Shestz and wife, Of netr town,
spent Thursday and Friday, OF last week
with relatives in aud around Winchester
Mr.. Bailey says he saw several fine peach
orchards in that section. One man sold
the peaches from an orchard of a hun
dred acres for $1,000 on the trees.
Another person tx 'ects to sell
the frui, on the trees of 200 acres for
$4,000 or So, 900. Why.csn't Shenandoah
grow peaches like the above.
On Friday night, Of last week some
seouudrels stole a road cart from Mr.
VIM. II. Beydlsr, who resides near the
Valley Pike Church. = few miles north
of town. Two trampS with horse had
been seen that evening near Mr.. Beydlers'
and 10 all probability they are the ones
who stole tho cart. Mr.. RObt. Myers OF
Pugh's Run, had a set of harness stolen
the sane night, doubtless by the same
parties. Unfortunately Mr. B"ydlsr did
not miss the cart until late the next day,
and then made no effort 10 recover it,
Here Is where we think he made a mis- "
take.
TIE very name of w. e. Barron is
enough TO make a fellows mouth wa ter.
so long has he been associated with the
oyster business of this place. Whenever
a Woodstock man thinks of oysters his
mind at once reverts to n. c. Barron
FROM whose skillful cookery he has for
mauy years been enj lying the best oysters
be ever tasted Barton is never behind
time. HIS snug eating rooms under Twins
drug store have been filing the air
around there with the delicious and ap-
petizing smell of the steamins not oysters
for over week. Great is Barron, ard
grand his oysters. May be live for ever
to serve them 70 us.
Mr.. Wallace Warren, Woodstock's ideal
pitcher, whose splendid work IN the box
this summer so often crowned his club
with victory, returned to his home in
Washington, D. c.. last Friday. His
many friends here regretted very much

This town has long been afflicted with
lot Of worthless lOaiDg characters who
must steal to live. Heretofore they have
con fnod themselves to petty pilferini
but We now look for an outbreak of boil

HERALD's long standing offer OF fine
gold watch and cham to the first person
who kills one of these scOundrels in thu
act of stealing still holds good.
