Mrs Walworth's Death.

From the local papers Of that place
We get the following account Of the
distressing death OF Mrs. WalWortb,
the mother of Miss Myra Walworth,
the music teacher of Shepherd Col
lege:
The death of Mrs. Marian Walworth,
Of Moscow, Mich, at o'clock Tuesday
afternoon, November %, was sad and
shocking. Mr. Walworth, who is post
master and general merchant, owns a
large farm adjoining the village on the
west, and here the family live. About
Z o'clock Monday evening Mrs. Wal
worth, in going from one room TO an
other with a lighted lamp. stumbled
over pet dog and fell, breaking the
lamp and scattering oil over space of
three or four feet square. She attempt
ed to, and succeeded in putting out the
fire on the floor, before protecting her
s-lf, after which she attempted to run
through the woodshed to the water tank
at the windmill back of the house, but
the door was fastened and in the ex-
element she could not open it; then
she came back and rushed out the side
door, thence to the tank and plunged
in. Meanwhile her clothing, even to a
portion OF her corset, had burned of.
A neighbor, attracted by [ e blaze, came
to her assistance. She was taken into
the house and fingered in great agony
until about 4 o'clock Tuesday after
noon, when she became unconscious
and died at o'clock. Besides the hus-
band, she leaves three children, Irving,
Eddie and Miss Myra.
We regret to say that Miss Wal
worth will not be able to return to
Shepherdstown to resume her work
during the present school year, as it
will be necessary to remain with her
father. Steps will be at once taken
to secure another music teacher, and
it is hoped to have one by the begin
ming Of the winter term.

Five Miles OF Good Road.

During the past summer and fal
the three road supervisors in SheP'
herdstown district, Nelson T. Snyder
James NJ Hendricks and w. S. Myers
have macsdamized fully five miles o
the county roads, doing the work il
frst.clss style. This beats all rec
ord, for good road-making, perhaps
in this county, except where specis'
appropriations were made for con-
struoting tdrnpikes The steam stone
crusher owned by the district is the
thing that has enabled this good work
to be done. Mr.. Hendricks says that
stone can be put upon the road al
less than one. half the cost Of the old
system, and the work is vastly better
and more satisfactory. THE excellent
result has been accomplished with
very little increase in taxation, and
besides the permanent improvement
made, the balance OF the roads have
been kept in good condition. II
doesn't take much figuring to see how
soon we can have all the roads in
Shepherdstovn district mscadmized il
the present good work Is kept up
We are fortunate to have such a pro-
gressiye county court and SO excellent
