A Delightful Play.

A number of persons from Shop
herdstown went to Winchester last
Saturday to see Sheridan's comedy,
1.-The School for Scandal" presented
by the company in which Mr.. R. D.
MacLean and Miss Odette Tyler (Mr.
and Mrs. R. D. Shepherd, Of Shep-
herdstown) sustained the principal
parts, and in which Mr.. Augustus Mac
Lean CA. NJ. Shepherd) is promi-
nent character. 1t was a thoroughly
enjoyable performance in every re-
spect, and was presented by an excel
lent company that was strong in every
part. Miss Tyler as Lady Teazle was
inimitable-bright, dainty, clever, an
artist whose acting was so perfectly
natural that it was more like her real
self than an assumed character. Mr..
MacLean as Charles Surface was as
brilliant in the comedy as he has been
forceful in the tragedies that seemed
his natural forte. The wit and humor
of the part were borne lightly and be-
comingly, and we hardly see how it
could be played better. Mr.. Angus
tus MacLean was admirable as the
foppi8h Sir Benjamin Backbite. The
performers were all good, and Max
Won Mitzel, as Sir Peter Teazle, shared
the applause with the stars. The cos
tunes were observation-disclosures in
silks and satins that only ladies can
appreciate. The Winchester opera
house is beautiful and tasteful one,
but unfortunately its stage was too
small to permit the MacLean-Tyler
company to show their scenery.

Uncle Levi Ross, a well-known col
ored man of Shepherdstown, died re-
Gently in the county infrmary, where
he had been for several months, and
was brought back to this place and
buried. Uncle Levi belonged to the
Lemen family in his earlier days.
A quarter of a century ago he was
very prosperous, owning his own home
ard pair of horses and carriage
with which he conducted a more or
less slow livery business. Good living
and sporting ways brought financial
embarrassment, and for several years
past he had been very poor, though
his friends contributed to his necessi-
ties as long as he was well enough to
take care Of himself. 1t was only
when he became helpless from the ills
of old age that he was taken to the
infrmary. Uncle Levi was a Demo-
crat to the backbone. He never
raised any issue on the subject of
voting-all he wanted was for some
trusted political friend to fix a ticket
for him and he was sure to vote it just
so. He was generally liked as he was
sober and polite at all times, and we
regret to note the passing away of
another famous old landmark.

Uncle John Hagley Heard From.

Laurelville, o., July 10, 1901.
On last June 17th, started from
Laurelville, went to Circleville to
get an excursion ticket; agent had
none. On the 18th I went to Col
umbus, got ticket to Erie, Kan
sas, started from Columbus at
nine o'clock, went through Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, through
part of Kansas, and on the second
day, arrived at Erie, Kansas at
five o'clock. The principle towns
which I passed through, were
Richmond, Indiana, Indianapolis,
St. Louis, and Kansas City, Mo.
The crops were not promising un-
til after l past St. Louis. People
were cutting wheat, corn looked
well, and the farther west the bet
ter. Wheat splendid, oats fail
ure, but the fruit looks we'll. The
relatives visited were the Fochts
and Hudsons. They are all we'll !;
/ merely mention their names as
their friends in Hooking will be
glad to hear from them.
The citizens of our town are
we'll. Down the creek Frank Davis
struck Karshner with a hatchet,
and the doctor says he will die.
Davis has not been arrested yet.
Three churches in town and all
doing well. Three saloons doing
the best they can. There is q
large number of pensioners in town,
they too are happy, and money
plenty, what more could they
want. AS 1 am old, 1 may not see
all my relatives, and if I don't,
when you hear of the old mans
death, set it down for granted he
has fought the good fight and is
at rest. JOHN HAGLEY.

Surprise.

On last Thursday, July I1th, at
the residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
George Amerine two miles east of
Bloomingville, occurred one of the
most noteworthy events of the
season. From hill and valley, far
and near, kind friends and neigh
bors were seen gathering at the
residence of Mr.. George Amerine
to help him celebrate his eighty
first anniversary. Mr.. Amerine is
one of our oldest and most praise
worthy citizens of Benton Tp., be-
ing at this age in fair health and
able to look after the interest of
his surroundings. Happening to
take his wool to market upon this
day which his kind wife had cum
ningly planned and during his alb
sence, friends and neighbors to
the number of 115 with well filled
baskets gathered at his residence
and imagine his surprise upon re-
turning to see a table almost the
entire length of the house spread
with every luxurant that heart
could desire. And as the sun ap-
preached the meridian all gather
ed around to get q taste of the
sumptuous feast and here we are
sorry to relate were ill manners of
some OF our guests; we may look
over the little faults of children,
but when it comes to men the age
of Lee Amerine and Coon Reichley
we think it worthy of attention.
1t is alleged that Lee Amerine
actually ate three heads of cabbage
and left the table with the legs of
four chickens in his pocket. Coon
Reichley came there looking as
lank as a gas pipe and the way he
ate was an outrage. Albert
Wright says its no wonder he was
attacked by catamounts.
Johny Moore seemed to be the
ladies assistant, of course here he
had the advantage of the rest. He
ate in the kitchen, also at the
three tables and then complained,
and only gave the rest twelve min
utes in which to eat. After the
sun began to approach the western
horizon, the people all began to
disperse in different directions to
their homes wishing Mr.. Amerine
many more happy birthdays.

Mrs. Mary Ward Kelly.

The funeral services of Mrs.
Mary Ward Kelly were conducted
at her residence in Logan, on Sun
day afternoon in the presence of a
very large congregation. DR.. H.
j. Steward conducted the services
and spoke of her patient suffering,
her faithful devotion, her hopeful
faith in God. She was born March
l, 1857 at Macarthur, o., and died
July 10, 1901, at the age of 43
years. The two daughters and
other relatives have the deepest
sympathy of all.
She has been great sufferer,
but she was patient through all of
her Affections and had the good
will of all who knew her.
July 10, was the day of her
death; and, since she united with
the church on that date, years ago,
DR.. Steward said, "She became a
member of the church on earth on
the same day of the month that
she entered the church in heaven. "
"Thy will be done" was her
favorite text. This was used at
her funeral; and she has gone
where Gods will is done, where
there is no sorrow, no heart-aches,
no death.
