A Big Business in Binders.
Delivery of the Oeering Farm Machinery In
Shepher dstown-A Novel Parade.


Monday was big day in the agri-
cultural implement business in Shep-
herdstown, when the Deering Compa-
ny delivered no less than forty-four of
their popular binders and mowers to
the farmers of this section. The hust-
ling agent for the Deering people in
this place, Mr.. ]. S. Myers, had been
getting in his fine work for several
weeks past, and the result was demon
strated when the delivery was made.
The implements arrived here in car
load lots last week, and were unloaded
in the space at the railroad station.
Monday the purchasers, among whom
were our most substantial farmers,
brought their teams to town, and the
machines were loaded upon the wag-
ons. A procession was formed on
Princess street, and, headed by the
Shepherdstown Band and the machine
~ men in carriages, paraded the prln-
cipal streets of the town. There were
thirty-four two and four-horse wagons
in line, and it made procession the
like of which has never before been
seen in Shepherdstown. The novelty
of the thing attracted large crowds to
view the parade, and it must have
been a proud day for Mr.. Myers. Mr..
J. G. Young, the general agent, and
Mr.. T. w. Penn, an attache of the Of
fee, were here from Harrisburg, Pa,
and Mr.. L. W. Coyner, the district
travelling man, was also present to as
sist in the big job of delivering the
goods.
After the parade the purchasers of
the Deering machines and number Of
invited guests assembled at the Entler
Hotel, where Mr.. Rentch the land
lord of that popular hosiery, had pro-
vided an elegant dinner. About one
hundred persons, all ofwhom had good
healthy appetites, partook Of the meal,
and enjoyed the occasion most heartily
Those who had purchased Deering ma
chinery were very glad of it, and those
who hadn't wished that they had. 1t
was altogether an enjoyable affair, in
which business and pleasure were most
iudiciously mixed. A pleasing feature
at the dinner was the presentation to
Mr.. Myers Of very handsome UNI
brella, the gift of his friends and Gus
toners.
During the parade the wagons were
grouped in the street and on the lot
adjoining Shepherd College, and Mr..
King, the Hagerstown photographer,
took several photographs of the teams
and the crowd surrounding them. Cuts
of the scene will be taken for adver-
Using purposes. Those who wish copies
of the photographs can obtain them of
Mr.. Myers.
The deliveries of farm machinery on
Monday included thirty-two binders
and twelve mowers, besides large
number of horse-rakes, corn-planters,
and various other implements. Mr..
Myers expects to sell twenty or twenty
five more binders before the season
ends. Mr.. Young the general agent,
was highly pleased with the day, and
said to the REGISTER man that no.
where in his territory was there a
place where he would rather do bust
ness than at Shepherdstown. 1t is
perhaps needless to add that the good
feeling between his company and our
people is mutual

Gone Out of the Business.

Mr.. Robert G. Miller has abandoned
his skunk farm. Last Thursday forty
four of the odoriferous little animals
all that were left-were killed and
their pelts prepared for market. The
rancho didn't pay. At one time there
were about three hundred of the an
mails in the field, and the business
seemed to be in a fair way to prosper
Then one night some one cut the wire
fence and a large number of them
made their escape. The worst trouble
came, however, when some colored
men set traps in the very field where
the animals were kept, and, catching
Numbers of the cats, sold them to the
owner. Mr.. Miller couldn't afford to
buy up his own skunks, so he deter
mined to abandon The scheme.

DISORDERLY SOLDIERS.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 21.-A
wild mob of Iowa and Tennessee SOL
diers, numbering about fifty, entered
the Eureka dance hall at 537 Kearney
street, last night and proceeded to
clean out the place in the most APP
proved fashion. They first charged on
the bar and in few minutes it was
complete wreck. They next went
up into the boxes, tore down curtains
and hangings and everything else
which could be torn down and broken,
everything brealsable that they could
lay their hands on, giving the excuse
that they had been charged too much
for drinks on the occasion of a former
visit to the house and wanted to ''get
even"
They then visited several other re-
sorts along the line and wrecked ev-
cry saloon they entered. The police
finally got the mob in hand and ten
of them were safely landed in the Cal
ifornia street station and charged as
being drunk. General Merriam was
communicated with by telephone and
sent out provost guard to round up
the stragglers.

OPIUM SMOKING

Although opium has existed as a
medicine in China for over a thousand
years, says the Contemporary Review,
the curse of opium smoking has only
been known on any considerable scale
for less than one hundred and fifty
years, and then it spread from the
coast inland, the import steadily in
creasing first in the hands of the Por-
tuguese, but from 1878 in the hands of
the British. This view of the matter
supports the ordinary anti-opium con-
tention, which is that opium is almost
invariably spoken of as Yang-yen-
l. e., foreign smoke (or tobacco)" and
not by its Chinese name, and that the
habit of opium smoking, with all its
attendant evils, came from across the
seas and was introduced by foreign
ers.

STOCK OVER-SJBSCR|BED
COLONEL SOPER HAS PLACED HIS
MILLION.
Letters from Him by the Australia
Announce It-But the Whole Stock
is Already Assigned.

a letter to b. f. Dillingham; received
from Colonel Soper this morning by
the Australia announces that he has
placed the million dollars of stock of
the new Waialua plantation in San
Francisco.
In another letter to different
person, Colonel Soper says 100000
had been paid in on it to Welch d
Co. and by them receipted for.
Whether this will lead to any com
plications or not is not known. Mr..
Soper had no written contract with
the company for placing the stock in
San Francisco, but went there believ-
ing that he could AS nothing was
heard from him for several steamers,
a letter was written as long ago as Au-
gust revoking any authority he might
have TO place the stock there, as the
demand for it here was more than
enough to take it all.
The whole $3,5OO,O00 has been as
signed to subscribers here, which is
practically equivalent to a distribu-
ton of the stock and half million
more could have been placed.

TRANSPORTS AND TROOPS.
Several Days Before More Arrive from
the Coast.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 22.-The
number of men to be sent on the re-
naming transports has been so re-
duced below the number that the ships
carried on their first passage to Mani
la that it would now seem necessary
to make use of one of the transports
not yet returned. 1t is General Mer-
riam's intention to send back the City
of Puebla and to discharge from COM
mission the Rio de Janeiro, Peru and
City of Para.
Unforeseen distractions in the dis
patching of the Ohio and Indiana will
delay their departure now for several
days. 1t will be ten days at least be-
fore the Pennsylvania is ready to
take on stores, and the loading will re-
quire four or five days more.
General Miller made request yester-
day of the department commander
that with him on the Newport be sent
the three officers and sixty men OF
the California heavy artillery who re
main after the departure of the In.
diana.
