The WhOOly-Goolies Convicted.

Thomas Barry, Ott Sharar, Harry
Loy and Samuel Newcomer were con-
victed in the circuit court at Hagers-
town, Tuesday, of the wantOn desc
Grafton of the cemetery at Williams
port. The trial began Monday, and
ufter hearing the witnesses and the
arguments of the lawyers it took the
jury Just thirty minutes to return a
verdict Of guilty against all four OF
the rascals. The indictment contained
five counts, and they were found guilty
on all. There are three other indict-
ments, and the State will enter up
Judgment Of guilty in each Of these
The verdict is one that is heartily APP
proved by the people generally, as
there is no doubt that the men con-
victsd are the guilty parties Barry,
who, by the way, formerly lived near
Kearneysville, this county, appears to
have been the ringleader of the gang.
He was saloon-keeper, and the
others were loafers about his place,
where the deviltry was planned. John
Harsh was in the gang, but he saved
himself by turning States evidence.
The prisoners have not yet been SEN
fenced, but it is likely they will get
the full extent Of the law.

TribulatiOn in Church.

There has been trouble among the
brethren and sisters of the colored Bap-
fist Church Of Shepherdstown. A few
weeks ago there was revival of the
old fashioned sort in this church.
Many sinners were brought to the
mourners' bench, the old members
were stirred up, and the building fair
" shook with the good old hymns and
the shouts Of praise. In the midst Of
the service trouble broke out, the pas
tor being accused of improper conduct.
The meeting was closed under cloud.
A council of ministers was held, and
they declared, &er investigation, that
the charges were untrue, and the per-
secution Of the pastor was the result
Of conspiracy among few members
who wanted to get rid Of him because
they desired another preacher as sheP-
herd of the flock. Last Thursday
night at public worship the trouble
broke out afresh, and there was almost
a free fight in the church. Howard
Cambria, one of the chief opponents of
the pastor, was arrested upon com
plant of the official members Of the
church, and was hailed before Masis-
trate NJ. L. Eichelberger The mag
istrate imposed small fine upon Cam
bric for disturbing public worship. A
vote Of the church was taken few
nights ago, when a majority declared
in favor of the continuance Of the pres
ent pastoral relations.

Potomac Poultry and Duck Yards.

Mr.. John c. Hoffman visited the
Morgan duck ranch at Riverton last
week, and while there purchased a.
number of the pure-bred Pekin ducks
that have made that establishment
famous. Mr.. Hoffman will 90 into
the poultry business with the inten-
ton Of making it permanent indus
try. He has already gotten fine yards
of Brown Leshorn and Silverlaced
Wyandotte chickens, and is now ad-
ding the Pekin ducks. We see no
reason why he should not build up a
big business, especially in the latter
line. He has grounds most admira-
bly, adapted for a duck ranch, and his
knowledge Of and interest in poultry
should insure success. Mr.. Morgan S
ranch at Riverton is big thing, and
the coming year he expects to market
$4,000 ducks. We hope that Mr..
Hofman's establishment may grow as
Mr.. Morgan's has. Mr.. Hoffman has
named his establishment the "Poto-
mae Poultry and Duck Yards, " and
he offers both stock and eggs for sale.

struction? THE torpedo boat destroy
ers foundered," said the brave Span
ish Admiral Cervera, in his report to
Gen. Blanco. Yes; and the laundering
was brought about by the good practice
of the gunners of the Gloucester, a
smart armed yacht. Cervera's ships
were faster than those of Sampson, but
they did not get away; 13-inch guns can
hurl many tons of shot AID shell into
the enemy before the advantage in
speed for few knots an hour will avail
for the emergency. The effect of arma
ment on armor Is not yet accurately
ascertained. Several points have, how
ever, been made clear by the naval en-
gagements, namely: G) That modern
shells readily set fire to the woodwork
of warships and that, therefore, wood
must be avoided or made freproof; ;
(2) that speed is relatively more i'm
porAnt from strategical than from
fighting considerations; (3) that in a
fair fight superiority Of craftsmanship
and quick firing means victory, and (4)
