DR.. Garthwaite, formerly of
Webster Mills but at present
clinical microscopist at the Den.

promoter of an enterprise that

Acquitted.

John Welch was placed upon
trial before a Cum berland jury
last week on a charge of man
slaughter.
The charge of manslaughter
against the man on trial, who is
about 30 years of age, and has a
family, one of his daughters be-.
ing nearly grown, grew out of the
shooting of Charles Grimes, aged
20, motorman, at Narrow Park,
Cumberland, Md, on the night of
the 18th of January by Welch,
who inflicted two wounds, one in
the head, the other in the left side
resulting IN the death of Grimes
at his home in that city the follow.
ing day. The deceased was mar
RED and left a widow and two
small children. The mother of
the deceased and his widow were
both in court and occupied seats
beside the States attorney:
The prisoner was dressed in a
neat suit of blue and is rather a
handsome man. His wife, who,
it IS alleged, was the principal
cause of the shooting, was the
only witness to the shooting, save
the dead man. and the prisoner.
She Is also the principal witness
against her husband.
According to the evidence and
the opening statement of the
States Attorney Mr.. and Mrs.
Welsh, who live at Narrows Park
had quarreled but a few hours be-
fore the shooting took place, and
Mrs. Welch and her daughter
went to the dancing pavilion and
the latter was engaged in dane
ing, when the deceased raped
on window of the pavilion and
motioned for Miss Welsh to come
out and get bottle of laudanum
that he had purchased for her.
Miss Welsh asked her mother to
go out and get the laudanum
which the latter did, when
Grimes asked her to walk away
from the light of the window -
They then went to the corner of
the ladies toilet room, 20 yards
away, where Grimes unbuttoned
his overcoat, gave the woman the
bottle and had just buttoned up
his coat when Welsh suddenly
appeared and with the words
"Now | have got you" ommenc
ed to shoot with result stated.
The jury after few moments
deliberation announced that they
had agreed upon verdict of ac-
quittal. Welsh formerly resided
in the lower end of Fulton county.

Fulton Nav Get "A Railroad

much of the RAILROAD gossip We
see going around in the papers,
we give the following. While
Fulton may not get a road this
year, the prospects for one in the
u"ar future are by no means bad.
The following was clipped
/ from a recent issue of the Con.
/ IUcllsvillc Courier:
The Baltimore & Ohio is max
lug long and rapid strides to.
ward paving the way for the con
structiou of its proposed new

recent incorporation of the Ale

company for the building of a
line from Port Perry, along with
the incorporation last fall of the
bedford & Western Potomac &
Allegheny rIilroad companies,
Mr.. Stein being president of
both these latter companies, in.
dicates the trend of events. In
the case of the first named corpo-
ration W. b. Linn is the presi.
dent while Mr.. Stein is simply a
director. The territory covered
by these three auxiliary compan.

rights .of.way acquired, gives the
Baltimore d Ohio the right to
construct and operate an entire
new line Of railroad from Port

ton and from Somerset across
the backbone of the big Allegheny
mountain into Bedford county,
through Fulton county to Tonolo-
way ridge, the western slope Of the
eastern spur of which will be fol.
lowed into Washington county,
Md, and across the Potomac
river, tapping the main line of
the Baltimore & Ohio, the old
Second division, near Hancock
station. The Blue Mountain tun-
mel, pa tly completed and leading
east from Fulton county INTO the
Cum berland valley, of course, is
included in the new route.
Reverting to the new line over
the mountains there can be no
doubt but what it is coming. .-
Business conditions warrant it's
building; the project is in keep,
ing with the spirit of the times
and it will come as sure as day
follows night. When the road is
/ complete it will be far better
line east than either of the pres.
ent routes because it will be CON
structed with the full knowledge
that a direct line east is the goal
to be reached. Furthermore, be.
cause of the tremendous advances
in railway engineering. the new
route will include tangents, levels
etc, scarcely dreamed Of Oyears
ago because of the enormous eX.
pense of building a direct high.
grade road EN- oodying the long
tangent sweeping-curve style of
cOnstructlonacross the Allegheny
mountains. The chain is being
forged and the advent Of the Ale
gheny & Westmoreland adds
another link.

MEMORIAL DAY.
Names OF Those Inferred in the
Nearby Cemeteries.


Saturday, May 30, 1903, will be
fttingly observed by the com
rades of the Grand Army of the
Republic as Memorial Day.
The passing days bring us
again to Memorial Day, when we
garland the resting places of our
heroic dead with the flowers of
budding springtime, and droop
above them the flag for whose
purity and glory they offered
their lives. 1n days agone they
were our comrades in that mighty
host whose daring, doing and dy-
ing continued the Republic and
made possible our present glory
and greatness as a nation. In
the retl aspect of Memorial Day
we refresh and renew the memo
ries of the past and intensity the
comradeship of the present.
"The good deeds left behind them
Form chain to bind them
70 those who linger here"
Let US, their comrades, gather
at their graves as at an altar, and
whilst there, voice a prayer of
thankfulness that our lives have
been spared to enjoy the fruitage
of their toll and sacrifice.
Let us not forget those who
rest beneath the daisy-spangled
sod in graves marked unknown"
and who made the greatest sacri-
fee of giving not only their life
but their name for their coun-
try.
Let US tell the rising genera
tion of their glorious deeds, and
by word and act do our part to
con tinue to the memory of the
patriotic dead the reverence of
the ever increasing millions liv-
ing III security and peace in the
land saved by the matchless de-
yotlon of the Union soldier and
sailor. Let our tribute of love,
affection and comradeship be
characterized by a sincerity and
faithfulness that shall render the
tribute sacred, and keep Memo
rial Day devoted to the lofty pur-
pose for which it was desigua-
ted.
We cordially invite all veter-
ans, orders and Sabbath schools
to be present with us on that oc-
casion.

RUHAWAys.. NO ACCIDENT.

Yesterday morning two runaways ocurred. The first was the Copper Queen delivery wagon. The team started between the two stores of the Copper Queen. A piece of paper started the horses and they ran down the street and turned to the plaza in front of the general offices Of the Copper Queen. When they started they very near ran over Thomas. the young son of Constable M Doyle. He was on a pet burro. and only by the merest chance did he escape. Twice he came in contact with the runaway team Both times he escaped only by a hairs breadth. Mike says the burro must go now. No accidents or dam age was done except the breaking of the wagon pole, which stopped the team.
