Youthful ElOperS.

The family of Mr.. S. J. Boyd, who
live about a halfa mile east Of town,
were thrown in considerable conster-
nation and alarm on Tuesday evening
last by the disappearance Of two chill
dren, a little girl of y, cousin Of
the family who makes her home with
them, and little son of Mr.. J. d.
Butler, aged s. Search was instituted
and continued up to twelve o'clock
that night without avail. 1t was
again renewed the next morning and
the youthful couple We're found in an
out-building on the farm not far dis
tant from the house. The sequel
proved that the little folks had packed
up some of their worldly effects in a
grip. determined to start out IN the
wide, wide world, relying upon mutual
cOmpanlonsmp as the ameHa'oT OI us
hardships and trials. It was late
when they started, and the grip sack
becoming heavy, they sought refuge in
a graveyard not far distant and upon
the farm, and there spent the night.
Early the following morning they
went to the deserted house possibly
with some well defined ideas OF setting
up housekeeping, where they were
found later, somewhat Diogenes
ike, each ensconsed in an empty bar
rel. 1t was childish freak, doubtless
inspired by some romantic modern lit
erature, and their experience will
likely prove as curative as it is ridicu-
Ious.-Char!estoun Advocate.

Why the Postmaster is Lame.

Postmaster L. H. Remnant started
in last week to learn to ride bicycle.
His family gathered around him, and
the two stoutest boys helped him to
climb up on the thing and held him
there after he had mounted it. They
trundled him gently along, and as he
doesn't weigh much at this season Of
the year they managed to keep the
outfit in perpendicular shape. Mr..
Remnants feet occasionally touched
the pedals, and he thought from this
that he was doing all the work. The
boys knew otherwise, however. The
next day the lesson was repeated and
the bicycle was mastered. On Thurs
day the postmaster scorned assistance.
He climbed upon the wheel and let
her 90. She went. He struck slight
decIvity and the thing began to get
headway. He yelled for help and made
a desperate grab at a tree, and then
the bicycle wabblcd until he got sea-
sick. Faster and faster went the wheel.
"Stop her, father, shouted one of the
boys. The bicycle itself acted on the
suggestion, for all of a sudden it stop
ped, with the postmaster underneath,
one leg pointing north and the other
southeast, while his head was in his
trousers pocket. The wreckage was
removed and the victim opened his
eyes and asked if many persons We're
killed. 1t was some time before he
could be persuaded that he hadn't been
in a railroad collision. BY the aid Of
a doctor, a pair Of clutches and a GAL
lon of arnica he managed to get out
within few days, but he says he
doesn't get on a bicycle again until it
is equipped with air-brakes fore and
aft

Two Men Killed by the Cars.

Benjamin Shepherd and Martin
Rizer were killed on the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, near Tabs Sta
ton, a few miles west of MartinsbuIg,
last Saturday night. Shepherd was
tenant on Mr.. Decatur Hedges farm
and lived only short distance from
the scene of the accident, Rizer was
in his employ and lived with him.
They were walking on the east-bound
track when they were struck by an
engine and tender which was return
ing 10 bring down a section ola freight
train which had become detached from
the main train short time before. 1t
is supposed the unfortunate men did
not hear the approach of the engine,
as another train was going west on
the opposite track at the same time.
Shepherd was run over about the hip
and his body badly mutilated. Rizer
was struck on the back of the head
and his skull crushed. Both met in
slant death. Their bodies were taken
to Martinsburg, where a coroners in
quest was held and the railroad en-
ployees exonerated from all blame for
the accident. Shepherd was about
forty years old and leaves a wife and
two children. He was a son of John
Shepherd, of Berryville, Va. Rizer
was younger and was unmarried.

The Things OF interest that are Happening In
our Neighborhood and Elsewhere
We hope the County Court will grant
the petition to open a public road be-
tween Shenandoah Junction and Duff
fields. A direct road between those
two thriving villages would be a great
convenience to many persons.
Mr.. Charles E. Lamar has been re-
moved as postmaster at Moler's this
county, and Mr.. Charles w. Carter
has been appointed in his place. We
believe Mr., Lamar's is the first head
to fall, but there will be others.
Mr.. Thomas Eagan, the new super
visor Of this division of the Norfolk &
Western Railroad, has arrived in Shep-
herdstown, where his headquarters will
be. He is located at the Entler Hotel.
We welcome Mr.. Eagan as a resident
of Shepherdstown.
Miss Hattie D, Johnson, one of the
teachers in Shepherd College, enter
tanned the other members of the faculty
and the senior class of the college with
a delightful supper last Friday even
ing. 1t was most delightful little
gathering, enjoyed alike by teachers
and students.
The Norfolk & Western Railroad
put into effect last Sunday a new
schedule. The only passenger trains
that We're changed We're No. ; and No.
6. No. 5, south-bound, which former
ly passed here at l041 P. m, now gets
here at 1856 a. IN. No. 6 passes at
5.45 a. m. instead of 612, as before.
These trains stop on signal.
The Messrs. BIlmyer gave an ezhi-
bition with their projectoscope in the
town hall Tuesday and Wednesday
nights. We We're not able to be pres
ent, but those who saw the wonders of
this marvellous invention of Edison $
were enthusiastic in their praise Of the
performance. The pictures were pre-
scented with Ife-like distinctness.
The fast freight line between New
York and st. Louis is now running
regularly The trains are numbered
81 and 80, and make the run between
Basic City and Hagerstown in eight
hours. No. 50 leayes Basic at 1.45
a. m, reaches Shepherdstown at $40,
and arrives at Hagerstown at 9.45.
No, 81 leaves Hagerstown l.25 p. m
Shepherdstown 22O, reaching Basic
at 9.25 p. In.
For the benefit Of Sunday travel
the Maryland and Virginia Bridge
Company, by order Of the board, will
give halEfaretoll over the bridge every
Sunday from May lst to October lst,
l897-one-half the regular rate, good
for the round trip, for driving, riding,
bicycling and walking. This very
low rate should induce people from
this section to visit the new and inter-
esting Antietam battlefield often and
our Maryland neighbors to come to
jefferson more frequently.
Friday night of this week will be
given in the town hall a charming

The New Fish Law.

The REGISTER has had numerous
inquiries concerning the new fish law
for West Virginia. We repeat few
points for the benefit of those who do
not seem to have carefully read the
law that we published week or two
ago. 1t is unlawful to catch bass be-
tween April 18th and June 18th. 1t
is lawful to catch at any time with
hook and line suckers, carp, mullet
and catfish. The law for West Vir-
GINA, Virginia and Maryland is exact
iy the same, but does not 90 into eff
feet until the Governors Of the two
latter States issue proclamations to
that effect. This will doubtless be
done in a short time. Governor At
kinson, of West Virginia, issued his
proclamation Yesterday. In the mean
time Maryland's old law, forbidding
the catching of bass during May, is
in force. The intent of our new law
is to prevent the catching Of game fish
during the spawning season. Suckers,
carp, etc, that are not game fish, are
not protected.
