Killed in a Freight Wreck.

On Saturday morning last, about
two o'clock, serious freight wreck
occurred on the B. & 0. r. r., near
Duffields, about Is miles from this
city, in which Mr.. VIM. H. Wharton,
of this place, was instantly killed.
"A west bound freight train, drawn
by engine 1868 and pushed by a
helper was coming up the hill when
the tender pin broke, cutting off the
air and applying the brakes to about
twenty cars, causing the helper to
crash into the front end OF the train,
throwing several cars from the
track onto an east bound freight,
which was passing. A serious
smashup was the result. Mr..
Wharton, brakeman of the east
bound freight, is supposed to have
been passing along the side of a car,
and was knocked off and mangled in
a horrible manner, being almost un-
recognizable. Several tramps who
were stealing a ride on the freight,
had narrow escapes, one of them
having his hand smashed. The
wreck was cleared up about Z
O'Clock. Mr.. Wharton was forty
years of age and leaves wife and
six children, one only day old,
when his death occurred. He has
lived in Martinsburg about nine
years. Three years ago he had his
foot so badly mashed that part of
it had to be taken of. His mother,
Mrs. Eliza H. Wharton, brother
and three sisters survive him, Mr..
John W, Mrs. Alex. Mosier, Mrs.
Adam Youngblood, of this city, and
Mrs. VIM. Myers, of Elk Garden.
Rev. G.. S. Trump conducted the
funeral services on Sunday after
noon at four o'clock. His remains
were taken to Berkeley Springs on
Monday, his former home, where
they were inferred. Our deepest
sympathy goes out to the mother,
fatherless children, and relatives of
the deceased.

Mrs. Edward Deck Dead.

Mrs. Ellen Deck, wife of Mr.. Ed
ward G. Deck, died at her home
near High street, on Friday night,
after an illness of only a few days.
She had a finger injured several
years ago, which caused blood pois-
on. The member was amputated
and it was thought she had COM
pletely recovered. Last Wednesday
she was taken suddenly i'll from a
complication of diseases and her
death resulted several days later.
The deceased was aged Sc years, 8
months and % days, end member
of st. Johns Lutheran Church, of
this city. She is survived by hus.
band, two sons and two daughters,
Lloyd Lewis, w. A., Anna and Ada,
all of whom are grown. The funeral
service took place from her late home
on Sunday afternoon, at two O'Clock,
Rev. G. S. Trump officiating. The
interment was in Green Hill Gene
terry. W. H. Wien was the funeral
director.

Beard of Education Meeting.

The Board of Education of this city
met on Monday night last at 7.3O
o'clock. President G. II. Wolfes
presided and all of the members
were present except John E. Oliver,
Of the Fifth Ward. The session
was short one, A number of bills
were passed and an amendment to
Sec. G of the bylaws was adopted.
1t was IS follows: "That pupils
who are non-residents, whose par
ents are taxpayers be allowed the
privilege of attending school with
out paying the regular tuition paid
by non-residents providing the tut
ton does not amount to more than
the taxes. In such cases the differ
ence must be paid" The contract
for building the fence around the
new building in the Fifth Ward
was not awarded owing to the fact
that only one bid was received. A
letter from Prof. Luscomb, of Shell
by, Ohio, in regard to introducing
music into the public schools, was
read and discussion was deferred
until after the teachers meeting.
The question will be thoroughly dis
cussed By them and put in proper
shape for the board to act upon.
A majority of the School Board and
the teachers seem to be heartily in
favor of introducing music into our
schools, and it is probable that it
will be done at the next meeting of
the board which will be on Monday
night, December 18th.

MORE THANKSGIVING.

November drear comes once year
Close wrapped in dullest gray,
With gust and rain until again
Slips in Thanksgiving Day.
A CLEAN of rose her mantle flows,
We see 1t from affair;
Her step is feet, her warm smile sweet,
And bright as any star.
Now, praise we'll sing, and welcome RIM
With bells in every steeple;
AS state and town step gladly down,
a many-milioned people.
Our gifts are rare, an answered prayer;
A love word softly spoken,
And Joys best speech, the tears that reacl
Like balm, heart half-broken.
All scattered pain; a feyered brain
Grown calm; sin defeated;
A vice outgrown; higher tone
To thought and action melted.
The harvest yield, the mighty shield
or peace held DER our nation;
Mans bond to man-that word that ran
And heralded creation.
She comes and goes, CLEAN Of rose
Athwart Noyember's raining;
a CLEAN to light the leaden night
OF our whole years complaining.
Should it be so that we let go,
The hope we gain thanksgiving?
No, let's unite to look on light,
And light with love our living!

A Musical Entertainment.

The musical faculty of Wilson
College, Chambersburg, will give a
concert in Martinsburg on Monday,
December 9th, for the benefit of our
Public Library. The concert will
be given in the Methodist Episco-
pal Church and will consist of soil
upon the pipe organ and piano, with
concerto duets of both these instru-
ments and also delightful program
of vocal music. The object, so far
as the Library is concerned, is to
provide for the running expenses of
the Library and to make purchases
of new books. This is an opportu-
nifty to hear fine music, made by ar
fists of high rank, TO testify our APP
probation of the kindness of our
neighbors from Chambersburg in
coming thus freely to our aid, and
to help our Public Library and in
crease its usefulness.
