A London letter says OF OrmOnde:
Perhaps no horse has ever been more
abused and reviled by certain class Of
turf writer's than has Ormonde, the I'M
doubted horse of the century; and no.
only himself, but any other animal, how.
ever good, who happens to be descended
from him. That he made a noise is, OF
course a fact. but that was purely an ac-
cident; it did not prevent his being the
best race horse we have. ever seen, or his

season at the stud. Oddly enough, he
himself came among Ben doris first lot
of 2-year-olds, while his sire was born
to stockwelps son, Doncaster, very early
| in that horses stud career.
| That Orme was as good a horse as his
| sire may not have been, though he would
| not have been far behind him had he been
| born under luckier star. We know what
robbed him of the Derby. and bad riding
| lost him the St. Leger; but that he was
| the gamest horse that ever carried a sad
die he proved conclusively on that after
| noon at Sandown park, when, worn and
| wasted with illness and only half a horse
| he ran Orvieto out of the finish for the
| Eclipse stakes. Twice too did he beat
| that wonderful mare, La Fleche. He was
| good slayer, the gamest of the game
| and great racehorse.
HE has now grown into one of the
| handsomest sires in the stud: he is the
sire of Flying Fox, winner of this year

Fatal Freight Wreck Yesterday.

There was a disastrous freight wreck
at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon on
the Norfolk & Western Railway near
Crooked Run bridge, three miles north
of Riverton. Brakemen Charles Met
yer and William F. DAILY, both of Ha-
gerstown, were instantly killed, an un-
known colored man was ground into
fragments, and William Cary, of Riv-
erton, was badly hurt. The train was
the local freight in charge Of Conductor
Joseph Wiberly, with Engineman Bill
ly Fitzpatrick at the throttle.
The train was running down grade
at high rate of speed, and at a curve
in a deep cut the engine jumped the
track from some unknown cause. In
a moment ten cars were piled in a
promiscuous heap in the cut. Meter
and DAILY were in car arranging the
freight for the next station when
the crash came. Both were instantly
killed, and when their bodies were
extricated several hours later they
were found to be terribly mutilated.
The wreck was so complete that little
could be done with it until the wreck
ing train was summoned, and at thi.
writing the track is not yet clear
The bodies of the two Inflated brake,
men were taken to Hagerstown about
midnight. Meter was 26 years old
and is survived by his wife and two
children. DAILY was q years old and
unmarried.

Big Fire at Shenandoah Junction.

|
The REGISTER announced last week
that w. N. Lemen and Charles S.
Billmyer, of Shepherdstown had bought
the elevator and other buildings con-
nected Herewith of S. L. Williams at
Shenandoah Junction. Last Friday
night between 10 and II o'clock the
whole thing went up iii smoke. 1t
was little before 10 o'clock when 1t
was discovered that the elevator, a
large and substantial frame building,
was on fire. 1t had caught, proba bly,,
from spark, and was burning vlgor-
ously at the end next the chimney
fue. The alarm was sounded, but
there being no fire apparatus at the
Junction the people were helpless to
subdue the conhagratlon, and IN a few
moments the elevator was a seethlng
mass oil flames, the heat from which
prevented anyone from approaching
1t. The Office building also caught
fire and was destroyed, but the books
and papers were fortunately saved.
CorncrlDs and other small buildings
adjoining were burned, only one CRIB,
which was filled with corn, being saved.
In the elevator was over 1900 bushels
of corn and about 500 bushels OF wheat,
besides other property. The entire
contents were lost.
The heat from the burning elevator
was intense, and it appeared as II
nothing could prevent the large build
ing occupied by l. W. Williams with
his store from catching fire. But
bucket brigade was organized and
men swarmed around and over the
building and worked so well, in spite
Of the heat and danger, that the build
ing and It's contents were saved. Mr.
Williams asks us to express his thanks
to his friends and others who worked
so hard and succeeded IN saving his
property. 1t was mighty close shave.
1t is estimated that the loss to W.
n. Lemen & Co. will be in the neigh
borhood OF $4,000, which is pretty
nearly covered by insurance placed
with Washington g. Alexander, and
Moore & Moore, of Charlestown, the
former having placed $500 on the
elevator and stock and the latter $725
on warehouse and contents and stable
and contents. The firm will rebuild
the elevator Immediately, and has al
ready resumed business N new quar-
tiers. In a short time they expect to
be better equipped than they were IN
the beginning.

and J. A. Link, of Dufhelds, together
with D. G. Donnelly, John Howell,

as probable entries to the primary
heat. Gerard D. Moore is spoken OF
as a possible candidate for the Legis-
lature, and J. G. Hurst and William
