Words OF wisdom.

81 want to emphasize it, that the
little fellow worth from $4,000 up
to million or SO is not meant
when we refer to the money power.
He has by no means to feel himself
included in the ranks of the money
trust which has this nation in it's
grip. He views with too. much
egotism hisimportance. He is one
of the inconsequential factors in the
problem. He is not the miller, but
is merely waiting for, the smaller
grist to go between the upper and
neither millstones until his turn
shall come to be crushed. 1t will
not be the small fish alone that will
be caught in this net, but those
who have Joined hands with tyran-
ny and oppression shall not go free
from the blighting curse.
Isaiah, the prophet of the Lord,
rebuked the unjust rulers of his
day in the following words:
Wherefore hear the word of the
Lord, We scornful men, that rule
this people which is in Jerusalem
Because We have said, We have
made covenant with death, and
with hell, are we at agreement;
when the OVERLOOKING scourge shall
paes through, it shall not come I'M
to us; for we have made lies our
refuge, and under falsehood have

Morgan,s Grove BUYS a New Home.

The Morgan's Grove Agricultural,
Mechanical and Live Stock Associa-
ton has bought a new home for itself
the famous old Fountain Rock prop
erty. Since the organization Of the
association its annual fairs have been
held in the grove belonging to the late
Col. VIM. A. Morgan, which was leased
for that purpose. The lease expires
in June of this year. and the death of
Col. Morgan having had the effect Of
causing some uncertainty as TO the fu-
ture tenantcy Of the property, the
directors wisely concluded to seek
permanent location. The Fountain
Rock property was thought OF, and
Mr.. John P. Kearfott, a director in
the association, was commissioned to
make a purchase. Mr.. Kearfott con-
cluded negotiations yesterday by buy
ing the property from Mrs. Charlotte
Johnson, Of Washington, for 81, $50.
Fountain Rock is one of the we'll
known places Of this section. 1t be-
longed to the late Hon. A. R. Boteler
and was his bone. During the civil
war, by order Of General Hunter, it
was destroyed by FIRE, the torch being
applied by the Union soldiers the same
day that they burned the Lee house
nearby. 1t was the destruction Of this
and other property in Virginia that
caused the Confederates to burn in re-
prisal the city of Chambersburg, Pa.
The Fountain Rock buildings We're ne
yer restored, and the picturesque ruin
has remained since melancholy re-
minder of the bitterness Of war. The
farm was divided between Mrs. Pen
dleton, Mrs. Didier and Mrs. Johnson,
daughters Of Col. Boteler The part
bought Of Mrs. johnson contains twen-
ty acres, and includes the grove, the
ruins Of the house and out-buildings,
and the famous spring that Is so wide
ly known as a living fountain Of the
purest waters.
The property is more favorably 10
Gated even than Morgans Grove, from
which it is divided only by the road
way. 1t is at the corner of the Mid
dleway pike and the Ridge road, a
scant mile from town, and is admira
bly, adapted in every way for the pur-
pose of a fair. The Norfolk & West
ern Railway passes through it. The
directors will meet Saturday to take
action looking to its immediate i'm
proyement, as it is the intention to
hold the fair there next fall.

Homes For Summer BOarderS.

Shepherdstown will offer number
of attractive homes for summer board
ers the ensuing season. Mrs. McLain' s
popular Sudley Place will be open as
usual, and promises to be more attrac-
tive than ever. Mrs. Robert Gibson
will furnish accommodations at Lee
land, which has been improved and
beautihed until with its natural ad-
vantages it makes a most charming
place, and we have no doubt will at
once jump into favor. Mr.. and Mrs.
Davis will give their famous good fare
at Wingard Cottage, and it will be a
most desirable place to spend the sum-
mer months. A new place for tran
sient and permanent guests is Mrs.
Moler's Virginia House. This proper
ty has been remodeled and put in ex-
cellent order throughout, and with
Mrs. Moler's reputation as an excel
lent provider it ought to be quickly
filed. The Entler Hotel, D. L. Rentch
proprietor, will also have open doors
for the strangers within our gates, and
will doubtless fill up to its limits. We
know OF no more charming place, so
far as natural advantages are con-
cerned, than Shepherdstown. With
the places of entertainment above
enumerated offering their best to the
city folks who love the pure air and
the lovely scenery of our valley, we
think the inducements will attract
more summer visitors this season than
ever before. A number of persons
have already engaged accommoda-
tons.

The Death Record.

Mr.. William Thornburg Lemen died
about 8 o'clock Monday morning at
his home four miles west Of Shepherds
town, in Berkeley county. He had
been i'll for several months, and his
death was caused by tumors in his
breast. Mr.. Lemen was a native OF
Jefferson county, and was one of the
best known residents of this vicinity.
He was member of one Of the most
prominent families in this nelghbor-
hood, having been son Of the late
Willoughby Newton Lemen, and was
born January Is, 1885. Mr.. Lemen
was married in 1889, and about that
date moved to the well-known Lemen
Grove farm near Shepherdstown,
which he afterwards inherited from
his father. He made his home there
until few years ago, when he sold
the place to Henry Shepherd, Jr.,
and moved to his farm in Berkeley
county. Mr.. Lemen was for years one
of the prominent merchants Of Shep-
herdstown. He bought out the store
of the late David Billmyer, which he
later sold out to Baker & Billmyer,
and afterward again went into bust
ness for himself, A few years ago
he retired from this business and de-
voted himself to farming. Mr.. Lemen
was a man who had the respect and
esteem of large circle of friends. OF
genial disposition, exemplary in char
acter and conscientious in all his deal
ings, he was in all respects good clti-
zen, and he will be greatly missed in
this neighborhood. He is survived by
one brother, W. N. Lemen, and five
children: Robert N. Lemen, Mrs.
Raleigh Criswell, Mrs. Daniel H.
Fulk, Susie and Helen Lemen. They
have the sympathy of the people in
their bereavement.
The funeral service was conducted
by Rev. DR.. Charles Ghisehn in the
Presbyterian church, Of which the de-
ceased had been a member for forty
years. A large number Of the friends
and relatives gathered to pay their last
tribute of respect, and the service was
very impressive one. The remains
were laid to rest in ElmwoodCemetery.
