In Basin.

Basin, April 1.-The Ladies of the
Maccabees gave their first ball here
Thursday night, and it proved to be a
most successful and pleasant social
affair. The music furnished by the su-
perb Basin orchestra was excellent,
and there was just enough people pres
ent not to overcrowd the ballroom, and
yet enough to make it pleasant, and
surely no more c~ongenial company ever
came together here before. The Ladies
of h Maccabees proved to be excel
lent entertainers and each lady indi-
vidually looked after the enjoyment of
each n everyone who attended their
dance. At IL o'clock an elegant supper
was served, after which the dance was
continued for an hour or two before
the guests departed for their homes.
The dance was also a splendid lnan-
cial success, as the ladies cleared SOL
over and above all expenses.
A pleasant dancing party was given
at the home of Miss Maggie Morrow
last Monday night, to which the young
lady invited a numbe of her friends.
The evening was e~nJoyably spent and
delicious refreshments were served.

Burglars About.

Another attempt was made last Fri
day night to rob the clothing store Of
Mr.. Jacob Wintermoyer in Shepherds
town. The store has been burglarized
four OF FIVE times already, SO Mr.. Harry
Wintermoyer, son of the proprietor, has
been sleeping there since the last rob-
berry. About three o'clock Saturday
morning he wa. awakened by noise
at the rear window. He found that a
man wa, trying to pry open the shut
ter, and finally got it forced apart suf-
fciently to show himself Mr.. Win
termoyer then fred atthe burglar, but
unfortunately his bullet went too high
and missed its mark. The fellow at
one. ran, followed by companion who
was with him behind the store, and
that was the last seen of them. In
their haste they left behind them an
ugly-looking bulldog revolver, a hatch
ct and couple of other implements
used in forcing an entrance. The burg
lars are thought to have belonged to
gang who were loafng around the
water-tank on the railroad Just south
of town. Three men were noticed
Thursday evening acting very suspic-
iously about town, and still others were
seen near the railroad station.
Sunday night the blacksmith shop
of Myers and Boswell was broken into,
and lot of tools stolen, including
chisels, brace and bit, sledgehammer,
etc. It is believed that the same gang
took these tools, with the purpose Of
breaking into some place away from
here. The tools they used at Mr.. Win
termoyer's place had been stolen from
the railroad Toulouse.

Two Splendid Speeches.

WV SkAShAAA Nf~~~~~'
There was a warm time in Shep-
herdstown Monday night, when the
Democrats wound up the campaign in
blaze of enthusiasm. Senator Faulk-
ner, of West Virginia, and Hon. Mar
shall Mccormick, Of Berryville, were
announced for closing campaign
speeches, and a great crowd greeted
the two talented orators when they
entered the town hall. The Shep-
hepherdstown Band escorted the par
ty from the Entler Hotel to the hall,
and the building was soon packed.
Senator Faulkner, who made the first
speech, was introduced by Mr.. W. j..
Knott. The Senator made one of the
best political addresses that we have
ever heard here. He discussed the
issues Of the campaign with an earn
estness and forcefulness of logic that
held the closest attention of the great
audience, except when the people
broke into hearty applause. He
spoke of the fallacies Of the Dingley
tariff bill, and then went into a dis
cu8sion of the new policy Of imperial
ism, showing up its dangers and its
absurdities and pointing out the duty
of the people to stand by the faith Of
the founders of the republic. In
spired by the attention of his hearers,
the Senator spoke for an hour and a.
half, and even then the crowd hadn t
enough. Mr.. J. S. Bragonier intro
duced Mr.. Mccormick, whose reputa-
ton as an unterrifed Virginia Dem
ocrat and eloquent e1pounder of the
law AID tn. party gospel had preceded
him, Mr.. Mccormick made one Of
his Characteristic speeches, in which
he brought out many pertinent points
and paid high tribute to our con-
gressional candidate, Mr.. McGraw.
1t wa, noticeable how his words of
praise of Hon. VIM. L. Wilson were
heartily applauded. The meeting
was fine one, and did lots Of good.
Neither gentlemen will ever want for
an audience when he revisits Shep-
herdstown.

United at Uvilla.

United at Uvilla.
A very stylish and pretty wedding
was the ceremony that united Mr..
Jesse A. Engle and Miss Esther Hen
bricks in the holy bonds of matrimony
at Uvilla Methodist Church Wednes-
day morning. The hour for the mar
riage WAS half-past ten o'clock, and at
that time the church was filled with
the friends of the couple-a gathering
of our most intelligent and respected
country people. As the bridal party
entered the church, their coming was
announced by the strains of the we'd
ding march from Lohengrin, played
by Mrs. J. Strider Moler The first
to enter by opposite aisles were the
attendants, Mr.. Raleigh H. Moler and
Miss Nellie Michael and DR.. Walter
Link and Miss Emma StrideI. The
groom and his best man, Mr.. Preston
S. Willard, then came up the center
aisle. After them came the maid Of
honor, Miss Nellie Marten, of this
place, who preceded the bride, leaning
upon the arm Of her father. Arriving
at the altar, where the minister, Rev.
J. L. KILLER, awaited them, the bride
was given away by her father and took
her place by the side of the groom,
standing upon floral mat. Here the
brief but impressive ceremony of the
Southern Methodist Church soon made
the twain one, and at its conclusion
the newly-marrisd couple led the
bridal procession from the church.
The church was handsomely decorated
with chrysanthemums and evergreen,
very taatefully combined.
The bride was dressed in becoming
gown of blue broadcloth and carried
pink roses Miss Marten wore garnet
corduroy and carried yellow roses +;
Miss Strider wore cadet blue cloth,
with white chry,anthemums, and Miss
Michael wore olive cloth, with pink
chrysanthemums. All the ladies wore
black velvet hats. The gentlemen, of
course, wore the conventional black.
Immediately after the ceremony
large number of invited guests repaired
to the home of the brides parents,
where reception was held from II to
o'clock. A wedding breakfast was
served-an elaborate repast that en-
brac.d all seasonable good things
served in the most tempting style. At
two o'clock Mr.. and Mrs. Engle drove
to Harper's Ferry, where they took
the train for trip to Baltimore and
Washington. Upon their return they
will reside at Bakerton, where Mr..
Engle has just completed and comfort
ably furnished handsome new home.
The groom is one Of the best-known
and most respected business men of
this section, being member OF the
thriving firm of Millard & Engle, gen
eral merchants, at Bakerton. The
bride is the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Daniel W. Hendricks, and is one Of
our most popular young ladies. We
extend to the couple our sincerest good
wishes, and hope they may live long
and prosper.
Many handsome presents were re-
ceived from the friends of the couple,
including beautiful china, silverware,
glass, fancy articles, furniture, etc. 1t
was pleasant coincidence that the day
of the wedding was the fortieth ami
versary of the marriage Of the brides
parents.

OBITU AIRY.

To the memory OF Mrs. James
Kevser who died October 14th.
1898, at Maxey, Colorado,
The deceased was a winning
and lovable young woman who
but recently came to this place.
She died in the morning of life,
with the dew OF hope and eXpecta-
ton shll glistenlng in the golden
sunlight of the broadening day.
We glance over the untrodden
pathway OF the future years that
seemingly would have been hers,
years shlmmering in the noon
day light of love, duty and good
works. and think, truly, Gods
way is not mans. Yet, we do
not question Gods wisdom, know
ing that He doth all things we'll" f"
and bow our heads in a silent
"Thy will be done.H
The departed was patient suf
terer, and when The summons came
center thou into the JOY of thy
Lord" it found her ready to go.
We shall miss her from among
us, and feel so deeply for the
grlef-stIcken husband in that
broken home, who mourns low
ing wife; and for. that .agonlzed
mother back in the old home,
who mourns an only daughter
while there are brothers and
friends to share our extended
sympathles IN this great ailllction.
