Charles D. Keplinger met with a
painful accident last week at the farm
of Moorehead Miller, in Berkeley
county, where he was threshing. Mr..
Keplinger stepped on loose board
on the overshoot of the barn and was
thrown to the ground. He sprained
his wrist and his foot very badly and
perhaps broke a small bone in the
foot also. The board fell upon him
and cut a cash in his head besides
He is still laid up with his injuries,
and it may be some time before he
can resume business.
Miss A. Salome Wipgate, of Wash
ington, is in town this week with a
view to accepting the position of music
teacher at Shepherd College. Miss
Wingate is an accomplished musician,
teaching both vocal and instrumental
music, and we think no better oppor-
tunity has ever been presented to our
people to secure the service of thor
ouehly qualified teacher. She is a
talented singer, possessing a rich con.
tralto voice highly cultivated and of
most pleasing quality, and is young
lady of charming personality. We
hope that she may receive sufficient
pupils to induce her to remain in Shep-
bferdstown, for her advantage to mu-
steal education would be great. Per-
sons who contemplate the study oil
either the voice or piano are urged to
see her or some member of the college
faculty at once. Her terms are mos'
reasonable.

RALPH BINGHAM TRIES TO ELOPE
WITH CALIFORNIA HEyRESS.

Ralph Bingham, the Chicago
lmpersonator and entertainer, has
been getting into trouble recently
by trying TO elope from Atlantic
City with a California heiress.
Bingham is we'll known to many
persons i'll this section and has
numerous friends in Georgia. He
was one of the star ATTRACTIONS for
several successive seasons at the
GAINESVILLE Chautauqua, where his
performances merited the enthusi-
astic applause they received. He
appeared at the Marietta Chautau-
qua only few weeks ago.
Miss Isabelle Cermera, the Call
ifornia heiress with whom Bing-
ham wished to elope, Is in New
York city with her uncle, S. V.
Andrews, having left Atlantic
City on account Of her attempted
elopement.
Miss Cermera left the hotel at
which she ard her uncle were stop
ping and drove to Longport, where
she was to meet Bingham. At the
hotel a note was found by her un-
Gle, telling of her plans. As soon
as he found the note he, with sew
eral policemen, started in pursuit
of the couple. They were soon
overtaken. Bingham showed fight,
but was overpowered. Andrews
threatened Bingham with arrest
on charge of abduction, but Bing-
ham was released after he prom
ised to give up his claims on Miss
Cermera. The fortune to which
Miss Cermera will fall heir is esti-
mated at about 50, 800, 000.-At-

1t requires no little heroism to
act always III accordance with
right principles; but it is the OBJ
stacles that present themselves to
our doing so which renders the
triumph to be achieved over them
more meritorious.
1t is not always easy to dis
tinguish what is genuinely noble
and uhselfish from what is prompt
ed by expediency and the hope of
gain. Outwardly actions may look
alike which inwardly are inspired
by entirely different motives.
Put a seal upon your lips and
forget what you have done. After
you have been kind, after love has
stolen forth into the world and
done it's beautiful work, go back
into the shade again and say moth
ing about it. Love hides even
from itself.
We cannot but discover how III
our very griefs there were hidden
angels reaching up to hide, within
the dark experience, some treasure
Of patience or trust We could never
have possessed, had the angels only
descended on us; and our life been
one long joy.
1t is not things but opinions
about things that trouble man
kind. Wheel, therefore, we are
worried or troubled or grieyed,
never let us blame any other than
ourselves, that is TO say our opin-
ions.
The acme Of perfection would
soon be reached if people would
only follow the advice they give to
others.

There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu-
tional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by + J
Cheney x Co, Toledo, Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t
is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces OF
the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to cure.

Running IA Country Weekly"

"How to run a country weekly"
is the subject of much discussion
among the "high-up" fellows in
journalism of late. From read
ing what they have to say on the
subject, we see that not two of
them agree, in every particular, as
to the best ways and means" of
conducting a country weekly. "
The truth is, none of them know,
unless it be one now and then,
who has had experience in the ac-
tual work of running a Country
weekly" Another thing we OBJ
serve is, that not every one was
"cut out" for the newspaper bust
ness. There is just one here and
there who can conduct country
weekly" successfully, and it is APP
parent that those who do, are
those who have been actively en-
gagged in the business for years.
No inexperienced man can walk
into a country newspaper" office
and make success of the bust
ness from the start, or at least,
we have yet to see the man who
has. Running country week
ly" is no fun or easy job, and I'M
less man has a big bank account
or a great heap" Of experience,
he usually finds himself in deep
water and away out from shore. -

To all Persons having Farming, Tim.

The Nashville, Chattanooga & St.

efforts to induce a good class of immi-
grants to settle in territory contiguous
to its lines, and to engage the attention
of capitalists seeking Manufacturing
Sites or Mining Property. 1t therefore
solicits the support, the cooperation
and the assistance of the people of every
county through which its line pass.
The management earnestly requests
that all parties who have farms for sale
or lease, those who have timbered lands
water powers or mineral lands for sale,
will send brief description of the same
to the railroad agent nearest them,
giving the prices and terms Of sale. The
prices must correspond with the prices
asked of local buyers The manage
ment does not propose to aid in selling
land to immigrants at exorbitant prices.
Large tracts suitable for colonization,
at low prices, are especially wanted.
