His Leg Amputated.

Tuesday night about midnight
Grant Lindsey, colored man about
twenty-six years of age, residing at
Grafton, w. Va, was thrown or fell
from a freight train on the seventeen
mile grade near Frankville and his
right leg horribly mangled by the
wheels of the cars. He was brought
to Oakland and taken to the Jail
where Drs. Hinebaugh and Raven
scraft amputated the member just
above the knee. As soon as his CON
dition will allow he will be taken to
the Western Maryland hospital at
Cumberland.
Sheriff Lee rendered the injured
man and physicians during the oper-
alton invaluable services, which ser
vices were dictated, no doubt, by the
bigness of his heart and not for praise.

en-kav-etch.

Many have read "Quo Vadisn by
the Polish writer, Sinekiewiscz. Not
so many know much about him. A
Polish priest at Baltimore, well ac-
quainted with the author, says the
Polish writer is very simple in his
manner and is rather silent when in
society, but he is a good listener to a
good story. He is of medium size,
rather dark, and is inclined to bald
ness, with a hint of gray over the
temples. The name is pronounced
Chen-kev-etch, with the accent on the
second syllable and the ch pronounced
as in child. He has been twice mar
ried.

HAGERsTOwN GETS A BLACK EYE.
Judge Stake Advises the Grand Jury tc
Look into Things.

NNNSS oeohC <AuNlSeS Cfanu Jury TO
Look into Things.
Among other things in his charge
to the grand jury for the February
term OF the Washington county Cir
cult Court Judge Stake said:
II ought to enlarge upon the gen
eral condition of this town. The al
leys are mud holes, full of filth and
there is certainly neglect, incompe-
tency or mismanagement or lack of
funds to the extent of endangering
the health of the community not only
the public health of our people, but
strangers coming in. Let the grand
jury also examine the alleys and they
will show rotten and ruinous build
lngs. Some that the whiskey breath
OF topper would set on fire. There
should be general and frequent in
spection of them and something rec
commended. A contractor said he
found many cellars in this town in a
bad condition both as to health and
fire danger, some filed with filth,
others with paper and boxes, making
destructive fires liable. A recent fire
disclosed a building with not only
barrels, boxes and stove in one room
in it but shed adjacent filled with
baled hay; l haye been informed that
right between two hotels there is a
pile of rubbish liable to destroy valu-
able property i'll case of fire. The
grand jury should investigate and see
if our town cannot be protected"
If, when the grand jury convenes
here next month and Judge Stake is
on the bench. he could use the same
language 0erbatim with regard to the
condition of the streets and alleys of
Oakland. There may not be mis-
management in the affairs of Oakland
but there is certainly q lack of money
with which to keep the public thor
oughfares clean and in the proper
condition.

Here is a straight tip from a news
paper called Brains: There is but
one way to advertise, and that to
hammer your name, your location,
your business SO constantly, so thor
oughly into the peoples heads that
if they walk in their sleep they will
constantly turn their steps toward
your store. The newspaper is your
friend in spite of your criticism. 1t
helps to build up the community
that supports you. When the day
comes that the newspapers are dead
the people are on the edge of the
grave with nobody to write the cpl
taph.
Mr.. Ward L. Smith, of Fredericks-
town, Mo-. was troubled with chronic

clans in Europe and America but got
no permanent relief. One day he
picked up newspaper and chanced
to read an advertisement of Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. He got a bottle of it. The
first dose helped him and it's continued
use cured him. For sale by Oakland

Obituary.

MIR. Ebenezer Kitzmiller died at his
home at Kitzmillersville February a.
1898. His death was sudden and un-
expected by his wife and all of his
friends. He had come in from his
days labor, eaten his supper and
after reading the news and conversing
with his family retired for the even
ing apparently as well as ever. About
one-half hour later his wife went to -.
retire and found he was dead. He
had not spoken word or given the ,
least sign OF being unwell. He had
always been very strong, healthy
man, and though more than seventy
five years old, still retained his health,
activity and cheerfulness of his
younger days. He was born in Hardy
county, Va, October 81, 1929. He
had been member of the Methodist
church for over forty years. Few
people have more even life. His
friends far and near speak volumes of
his hospitality and genial disposition.
Every benevolent cause received his
attention and help. Scarcely can a
church be found far or near where he
is known but what they have received
more or less help. The pathway of
the kind and true is always lined with
frultage which will not soon decay.
The path of the just is as the shining
light which grows brighter and
brighter unto the perfect day. His
voice nor footstep no more will be
heard in his home; his pew in the
church will be vacant, yet we trust
he has better home above in the
city of our God. His body was laid to
rest in the home cemetery February
9th, at p. IN. His funeral services
were conducted at the church by his
pastor, Rev. j. H. Koch, where a
large number of friends had gathered
to pay their last tribute of respect to
one they loved. His wife and child
rem have the profound sympathy of
all who know them, and may thev
live so when one by one they are
called they may receive the crown of
glory, the wreathe of triumph, the
palms of victory, as they pass into
the celestial city of God. X.

Good looks are really more than
skin deep, depending entirely on a
healthy condition of all the vital or
gans. If the liver be inactive, you
have bilious look; if your stom-
ach be disordered; you have dyspep-
tic look; If your kidneys be affected,
you have a pinched look. Secure
good health and you will surely have
good looks. Electric Bitters" is a
