Held on the Charge.

Deurene Anderson, youth of High

in connection with the murder and rob-
berry of Absalom Kessler and Mrs. Anne
DOMAIN at Magnolia, w. Va. on the
night of September 20 last. When Frank
Sirbaugh. the one-legged ex-convict, was
arrested some days ago, charged with
completely in the murder. Anderson vol
unteered the statement under oath that
Sirbaugh had endeavored to persuade
him to assist in the robbery of Kessler.
This was about month before the muir
der.
Anderson is regarded as a most i'm
portant witness against Sirbaugh, partic-
ularly as the latter is said to be able to
prove an alibi. The prosecution will use
And erson's testimony to show that even
if Srbaugh was in Cumberland on the
night of the murder, as he claims, still he
was an accessory because he knew Kes-
sler kept large amount of money at his
house. Anderson was released on
bail for his appearance at the preliminary
trial of Sirbaugh, which took blaze at

Unusual.

Mr.. lanes Henson. Of Bunker Hill. had
in town Saturday branch of peach
tree with blossoms on it, something I'M
usual for this time of the year. He was
showing it to his friends on the streets
and it proved to be great curiosity. The
twig is from a tree in his orchard near
Bunker Hill, and the blossoms came out
since the recent heavy frosts and are not
injured.
Berkeley county has a reputation as a
fruit growing county, but it has never
been known to raise peaches before in the
winter time. If Mr.. Henson would build
a hot house over the tree he would have
peaches in his orchard for Christmas.
Probably the tree was ashamed of its
bad record in the spring and wanted to
show that it was not worthless by pro-
ducing some of the delicate fruit in the
winter Anyhow it did something unus-
ual and Mr.. Henson will hold on to it as a
prize tree.

The secret Of a celebrated English
statesman's long life was his systematic
way of eating. Every bite of bread was
chewed thirty times before swallowing
The result was he naturally enjoyed good

food, and eat things which were never in

Deafness Cannot be Cured

you call applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion OF the ear. There is

is by constitutional remedies. Deafness

When this tube gets inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing. and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
