The Escapade OF william Nlcewarner

A young man who goes by the
name of William Nlcewarner, an
adopted son of Joseph Nicewarner, OF
the vicinity of Shenandoah Junction,
is liable to get into serious trouble as
result of a performance the past
week. Last Saturday Nicewarner
went to D. L. Rentch, proprietor OF
the Entler Hotel in this place, and
told a sad story. He said his mother
had died and was to be buried in Boil
war, and he wanted horse and buggy
so that he might attend the funeral
and pay his last tribute of affection.
Mr.. Rentch let him have team, and
the young man drove sorrowfully
away. When he failed to return on
Sunday Mr.. Rentch began to invesh-
gate. He discovered that the young
man had no mother, therefore she had
not recently died, and consequently
there was no funeral. He also learned
that the team was in Stuart's livery
stable at Harpers Ferry, where Nice
warner was making strenuous efforts
to sell it, offering it for $75, or even
less. Mr.. Rentch went to Harper'S
Ferry early Monday morning with d
warrant for the fellow arrest, but he
had fed for parts unknown, and moth
ing has since been heard from him.
The horse and buggy were recovered
by their rightful owner and brought
back to this place.

Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court of Appeals of
West Virginia, in session at Charles
Town the past week, adjourned Tues
day. The case Of most local interest was
that of c. F. Wall VS.. the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad, which came up for ar
gument Friday, and occupied the
greater part Of Saturday. The case
involves the question whether rail-
road car belonging to foreign COM
pany is attachable in West Virginia.
c. F. Wall shipped cattle to Jersey
City, and some were killed on the
Pennsylvania railroad. He brought
suit in this county and attached a
Pennsylvania car in possession Of the
n. & W. Railway. Eminent counsel
were engaged on both sides-James
N. Mason, of Charles Town, and Sen
ator John W. Daniel, Of Virginia, rep
resenting Mr.. Wall, while Marshall
Mccormick, of Virginia, and Cleon
Moore, of Charles Town, represented
the Norfolk and Western. The argu-
ments of the distinguished counsel in
this case attracted to the courthouse
very large crowd. The court will
render decision later.

Railroad Company against McGarry,

Church Notes.

1t is thought that a division of the
Presbyterian Synod of Virginia will
in all probability be effected at the
one hundred and fifteenth annual
session of that body, which is to be
held in Norfolk next month. As the
organization is at present constituted,
the synod is made up Of the two
States of Virginia and West Virginia,
the District of Columbia, and por-
ton Of Maryland. 1t is thought that
the territory is too large to be includ-
ed in one organization, as it makes 1t
quite expensive to some Of the churches
to send their delegates to the meet.
ings. The meeting at Norfolk will
serve as on instance Of this, the mem
bers of West Virginia having to trav-
ell several hundred miles in order to
secure representation. 1t is proposed
to divide the territory at some point
in the Blue Ridge.
Mr.. J. J. Singleton and family have

Echoes of the Fair.

The famous Morgan's Grove baby
show was held Friday afternoon. As
usual there was considerable gath
ering of fond parents and devoted
relatives who had lovely Infants to
compete for the prizes. The silver
cup offered for the prettiest baby was
awarded to Harry L. Snyder, Jr.,
aged twenty months, the youngest
child of Mr.. and Mrs. II. L. Snyder,
of Shepherdstown. The $3.50 gold
piece for the latest baby was given
to Charles Edward Riddleberger, four
months old, the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Riddleberger, of Msrtinsburg,
regular little dumping OF boy.
There were no twins competing for
their prize this year. The judges
were Mrs. Blundon, of Maryland ;
Miss McCartY, of Washington; and
Mrs. Phillips, of Norfolk.
An interesting tournament was held
Friday afternoon by the Inwood Tour
ney Association of Berkeley county.
Edgar Lefevre, Knight of Edgewood,
won first prize, and crowned Miss NJ.
L. Bender, of Leetowu, queen of love
and beauty; Max Hoffman, was Sec
ond, and crowned Miss Virginia Dun

the knights and the coronation ad-
dress were delivered by ]. W. Dodd,
Of Martinsburg.
The Morgan's Grove fair was not
only pleasant one to the people who
visited it last week, but best of all 1t
was a complete financial success. The
management was conservative and
economical, although liberal enough,
and with the increased gate receipts
and the large sum received from the
privileges there IS large surplus left
after all expense have been paid.
We congratulate the managers upon
the satisfactory results of the fair.

VIII Bore for Oil.

We learn from good authority that
in the near future systematic at
tempt will be made to strike oil in
Jefferson county, and in the vicinity
of Shepherdstown. An agent Of the
South Penn Company, which is the
name under which the Standard Oil
Company operates in West Virginia,
has been in this county recently look
ing up land titles, with view to Sc
curing leases before operations are
commenced. It is the intention to
sink a couple of wells, at least, and
make thorough test Of this territory.
Biologists have said that it is alto
gether improbable that oil exists in
this section, but biologists have often
been mistaken as to oil territory, and
some fine wells have been struck
where the scientific fellows said none
could be found. The South Penn
Company must have some reason for
it's proposed invasion of this territory,
but what this reason is we do not
know.

Bad Wreck on the Norfolk & Western.

Bad Wreck on the Norfolk & Western.
Passenger train No. 3 on the Nor
folk & Western Railway, which left
Shepherdstown at $40 o'clock last
Sunday morning, was thrown from
the track at 2.45 in the afternoon one
mile north of Glasgow, and about 40
miles from Roanoke. The wreck was
one of the worst that has happened on
the road for years, but with the usual
good luck of the N. & w., no passen-
ger was seriously hurt.
The engine, tender, mail, baggage
and express cars and two coaches were
thrown from the track, the Pullman
being the only part of the train to re-
main on the rails. Engineman G. NJ.
Swain and Fireman Edward Ander-
son, both of Roanoke, were badly hurt.
SWANS right leg was broken and he
was also injured internally. Ander-
sons arm was crushed so badly that
it had to be amputated aud he was
painfully burned also. Both men were
taken to the Roanoke Hospital.
The train was in charge of Con-
ductor G. W. Crow and Brakeman ].
w. Bowie, neither of whom was hurt.
Mail Agent W. B. Clapper and Ex-
press Agent Hinch also escaped un-
hurt, though the latter was completely
covered by the wreckage.
An investigation revealed the fact
that spike driven between the joints
of two rails had caused the wreck.
Tuesday the mystery as to who had
done such thing was cleared mp,
when Johnnie Barger, boy about
eleven years old who lives near the
scene, confessed that he had done 1t.
He said he had placed the spike be-
tween the rails and hammered it half
way down with rock. He thought
the engine would fatten the spike,
but had no idea it would throw the
train from the track. He is too young
to be prosecuted.
The latest news from Roanoke is to
the effect that Engineer Swain is not
expected to recover. Mr.. Swain is
known in Shepherdstown, having mar
ried here daughter of the late John
Helferstay. 1t is thought Fireman
Anderson will get well.

Ball Game at st. Johns.

Captain C. C. Smith, of Fort Win
gate, in command Of company G, Unit
ed States cavalry, spent Friday in the
city. The soldier boys rugged up a
bali team and our boys tried to enter
tain them on the diamond. There was
some good playing on both sides. The
soldier boys claim that most of their
ball team was not with them, and the
st. Johns boys did not have some of
their best men in town. This accounts
for the poor playing oil both sides.
G. E. Waite pitched for the home
boys, but owing to the fact that he has
been sick for several days, his curves
were not so swift as they usually are.
Captain Smith played with his men,
and in case of disputes always stood
up for the right. no matter whom he
favored. But the disputes were few and
good natured and each side manifested
a spirit of fairness and impartiality.
