Twentieth Anniversary Celebrated.

Rev. DR.. Charles Ghiselin and Mrs.
Ghiselin last Friday flight celebrated
the twentieth anniversary of their
marriage by holding reception at
their home, the Presbyterian manse,
in Shepherdstown. During the eve
ming a large number of their friends
from both the town and country called
10 congratulate them, and the occa-
sion was a most pleasant one. Mem
bers of DR.. Ghiseliu'e church assisted
in receiving and in serving refresh
ments. A number of handsome and
useful presents in china were given
the "bride and groom" among them
being beautiful dinner set of Havi-
land china from the congregation.
DR.. Ghiselin has been pastor OF the
Presbyterian Church here for more
than score Of years. His home was
IN Norfolk, and his bride was Miss
Fannie Morrison, of Rockbridge Baths,
Va. From their fret coming to Shep-
herd.town they have had the afec-
tionate regard of all our people. In
our village life DR.. Ghiselin has ever
been the faithful man of God, de-
voted spiritual leader, an exemplary
Christian gentleman, and his wife has
been true helpmeet in It's fullest
sense. For these twenty years they
have shared the griefs and participated
in the pleasures Of our people, and
when sorrows have been their portion
our people too have sustained them
by sincerest friendship and warmest
sympathy. Not only in their own
church, but in their entire community
the greatest regard is felt for them,
and the senior minister of the town is
as bishop over all and friend to
each. We hope that they may have
many years yet of usefulness in our
community, and that as the years
come and go they may have the peace
and happiness that shall make their
last days their best days

FROM THE ASHES.
Baltimores Family's Experience Points
Moral to Residents of Shepherdstown.

The visitor to Baltimore today
scarcely realizes that less than year
ago the city was almost destroyed by
a memorable FIRE. A similar compar-
ison might be made by George w.
Nally, one of the leading citizens Of
Baltimore, as to the change in his own
looks.
A short time ago, Mr.. Nslly, writ
ing from his home address, 22l3 Bar
clay St., says, 81 have been troubled
for years with catarrh and had re-
sorted to all remedies that could be
thought of. Ny wife was also aflict-
ed with this terrible disease, but all
the treatments we used were an alb.
solute failure until we tried Hyomei.
1t worked like a charm and has made
a complete cure in both Of our cases.
Reinhart's Pharmacy, the local agents
for Kyomei, have so much faith in
the treatment that they give their
personal guarantee to refund the
money in case it does not benefit. a
complete outfit costs one dollar, the
extra bottles are but fifty cents. Ask
to see the strong guarantee under
which Hyomei is sold.

Ticket Agent Gone Wrong.

John W. Kelley, Of Laurel, Md,
and ticket agent d the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad and of the United
States Express Company at Jessup,
Md, five miles east of Laurel, has
been arrested and committed to An
napolis jail on the charge of misap-
propriating the funds of the railroad
company. 1t is alleged that Kelley
has for some time past been making
bills in duplicate, receipting one set
when the money was paid to him and
keeping the other set on file to mis-
lead the travelling auditors of the
company. 1t is said that the amount
of his alleged shortage is over $500.
Kelley was formerly ticket agent Of
the B. & o. Railroad at Charles Town,
and we understand had some trouble
there. From Charles Town he was
transferred to Strasburg Junction, Va,
and later got the agency at Jessup.
His wife is an estimable lady Of
Charles Town.

Big Blaze in Charles Town.

Last night about II o'clock fire
broke out in the livery stable belong
ing to the Palm Hotel property. Al
most before the alarm had been sound
ed the entire building was in flames,
and in a very short time the fire had
spread to the adjoining building, which
is also used as a livery stable and
owned By w. Z. Myers. Both were
frame buildings and the fremen could
do bat little toward checking the fire,
which had gained such Roadway be-
fore the engine got to work. Starry s
coach factory caught next and for a
time it looked as though that entire
section OF the town would be wiped
out, as most Of the nearby buildings
are frame, and Phillips lumber yard
is close at hand. Fortunately not a
breath of air was stirring, and they
finally got the flames under control.
Several horses were severely burned
before they could be gotten out of the
buildings. All of the property was
insured. The origin of the fire is un-
known.
