How a
Maryland Woman
Put on Flesh
GAINED as POUNDS.

Loss of flesh means loss of power
to resist disease. The man or woman
who is fat and healthy has a reserve
power that wins the battle of life.
Mrs. Margaret J. +. Truitt, of Pitts
Vile, Md, for over two years had SUI
fered with diseases peculiar to woman
hood. Local medical skill seemed to
give her 10 relief. Her food gave her
no nourishment. She was gradually
wasting away. FINALLY" writes
Mrs. Truitt, ~ was induced to try
YAGER'S SARSAPARILLA WITH
CELERY, and before l had taken
half a bottle, began to improve and
continued to do so since, l have
taken seven bottles and have gained
az pounds since began it. ."
The building up" power of
YAGER'S SARSAPARILLA WITH
CELERY is only one of its wonderful
merits. It's primary action Is to
cleanse and enrich the blood. 1t re-
stores the whole system TO healthy,
functional action.
YAGER'S SARSAPARILLA does
not contain mercury or arsenic in any
form whatever to accomplish the Won
derful results achieved. There is abb
solutely nothing in its composition
harmful in the least degree. It's me-
dicinal merit is based on combination

Killed In a Quarry.

Oliver Dodge and Frank Wiley,
employees of the Standard Lime and
Stone Company, operating a quarry
at Millville, this county, were instant
ly killed last Saturday morning by
the premature explosion of a blast, and
Frank Lancaster, Cleveland Pearl and
Robert Nicewsrner were seriously in
jured.
A large piece of stone, weighing sew
eral thousand tons, had been blasted
from the hillside and smaller blast
had been entered TO dislodge it. This
latter blast failed to go off, and Dodge
and Wiley undertook to sledge Oft a
piece of the stone in order to remove
the dynamite, when the explosion &C.

Among the Churches.

A called meeting of Winchester
Presbytery was held last week in Mar
tiusburg to consider charges against
Rev. c. W. Hollis. Rev. Mr.. Hollis
was accused of having signed the mar
rage certificate of a man and woman
at Davis whom he had not married.
At Davis he is said to have also caused
feeling in his congregation by taking
an undue interest in behalf of Robert
Eastman when the latter was on trial
for the murder of Frank Thompson.
He afterwards went to Parsons,
where other charges were preferred,
and he has now left that place.
Presbytery concluded to meet at Par
sons December % and hold a trial,
with view to getting all the facts in
the case. The friends of Mr.. Hollis
assert that nothing rejecting on his
character as man or a minister has
been shown, and it is believed that he
viii be completely exonerated.
A handsome bronze tablet was re-
Gently unveiled in the Few Reformed
church in Martinsburg in memory Of
the pastors who have served that con-
gregatioD. In the hundred years that
the church has been in existence there
have been but nine pastors, and among
that number were two well-known
residents of Shepherdstown, Rev. Rob-
ert Douglas, 1884 to 1915, and Rev.
Daniel G. Bragonier, lS45 to 1860.
Rev. DR.. F. N. Woods, pastor of
the Presbyterian church of Martins
burg, who was appointed one of a COM
mittee of three to help raise the TWEEN
tieth century fund, has decided not to
accept that honor, for the reason that
it would keep him away from Mar
tinsburg at a time when it Is essential
ly necessary for him to be there
during the building of his new church.
The Lutheran pastor will meet his
class at st James church, Uvilla, on
Saturday afternoon at go. There
will be special jubilee service there
on Sunday morning TO celebrate the
freedom ofthe congregation from debt,
and 1t is hoped that all the members
can be present Services in Shepherds

We have heretofore made known to

We have heretofore made known to
our readers the difficulties between
Editor Pendleton of the Berkeley
Springs News and the game wardens.
1t appears that the driver of the e1-
press wagon, one Dill, told tales out
of school, and the News in its last is
sue printed this mild rebuke:
A few days ago we sent small 6xlO
package TO Pittsburg and an insolent
scoundrel by name Dill, driver OF the
express wagon, after he got to the sta
ton, saw the package, insisted that it
contained game, wanted it kept until
he could find Ditmor. Dill had no more
right 10 delay the box than would some
babe unborn. Indeed, driving the eN-
press wagon, common sense, good Judg-
ment, his common interests, would
seem TO indicate that he ought 10 go
way back and sit down. say nothing
and saw wood. but his impertinent, in
solent. unwarranted damn scoundrelism,
in following us to Hancock-even TO
the town of Hancock. Md.,-was too
much. Today he is out OF job as
driver.
When Dill saw this about himself
he got real mad and made an attack
upon Mr.. Pendleton in the public
streets and tried to do him up, The
latter had Dill arrested and fined for
assault.

Killed at KecdySville.

killed al heelySVlllS.
A murder that created a great deal
of excitement at Keedysville, Nd, a
small town six miles from Shepherds
town, was perpetrated last Saturday
evening, when John Miller, a we'll
known farmer about 70 years of age,
was shot and killed. He was in
Keedysville about shutdown, and then
had in his possession about $25 in mon
ey. He started up the railroad track
toward home, and in less than an hour
was found dead within half mile of the
town. He was lying along the track,
and two bullet-holes in his head
showed how he had been killed. The
discovery Of the crime created a SEN
sation in the community. 1t was de-
termined to put bloodhounds on the
scent, and Monday night Detective
Branch, from Suffolk, Va, arrived
with two bloodhounds. One Of the
dogs had hurt its leg and could not be
used. The other was taken to. the
scene Of the murder, aud soon started
on trail. Several thousand people
were on the streets of the town and
at the place Of the murder when the
dog started out. The intelligent ami
NAL followed the trail down the rail-
road track, went through Keedysville,
and made its way to the water-tank a
half mile from town. After brief
stop there it cut across several fields
to a house where lived James w.
Jones, and here it gave evidence that
the chase was ended. Jones was ar
rested at once and taken to Jail at Ha-
gerstown.
1t is believed that two men were
implicated in the murder. The blood
hound was taken back to its starting
point, and it took up the scent of
what was thought to be the other
criminal. 1t followed the trail for
two miles, but the scent had grown so
cold by this time that it could not be
pursued further, and at watering
place was lost. The owner of the dog
received 500 for his services.
Jones, the accused man, formerly
lived in Hagerstown, but had recently
been employed as pumPer at the
water-tank near Keedysville. He is
married man and has seven children.
He has cork leg He has heretofore
been regarded as an inoffensive man.
He denies his guilt, and so far the ev-
idence against him is far from con-
elusive.
