Mr.. Fl. l.. Alexandra, Mr.. Frank
L. Wilson, Attorney x. Poole. Mayor
W. e. Minghini and Postmaster Alex
Clohan are the members Of q company
OF Martinsburg gentlemen who have
recently ACQUIRED possession Of q tract
Of 80 acres of slate land, purchased
from John Lovett for 81, 002. and
which forms the connecting link
between two large plots of ground
owned by them between the Cumber.
land Valley and Baltimore q Ohio
railroads neal Berkeley Station and
touching both roads.
The purchase OF this land, which
is now planted in peach trees, forms
another chapter in the proposed devel-
opment of the slate and limestope
industry in that section OF the county,
and gives these men possession of
nearly 800 acres of contiguous territory
In a valuable locality. Repeated
efforts have been made by this COM
pany to get possession of tins tract.
but 1T was only recently that the
matter was placed in such shape as
to reward these efforts. The peach
trees will be uprooted and cast aside
to make way for work on a scale that
promises in time co grow into n OF
the largst industries in the county.
One of the gentlemen stated today
that 1T was intended tospush the devel-
opement Of the slate business at this
point. and among the plans vas u
which contemplates the installation of
a plant to manufacture brick out of
the shale to be found in abundance
there. A plant OF ample capacity will
be erected, houses for workmen will
be- built. a siding will be ruiz into the
part of the land and the industry will
be placed upon a permanent, and it is
believed. profitable basis.
An agreement has been reached
with the Cumberland Valley road
whereby the latter agrees to stop all
passenger trains both wavs at this
point after a station shall have been
established. and in consideration of
this the has transferred to
the railroad a tract of land of an acre
or two for buildings. etc. 1t is pro-
posed to establish the little village of
the workmen at this point. and when
the plans of the company are fully
matpred a considerable industry will
have been added to those already en-
gagged in the Development of the slate
and limestone land in Berkeley county.

STEAM FROM MOTHER EARTH.
Man Proposes Boring the Dirt for
Hot Water and Power.

MAN proposes boring the Dlrt LOT
Hot Water and Power.
York and Harrisburg capitalists are
interested in Colonel II. O. DEM
ming's project to bore for hot water
and steam in York county. Colonel
Demming has been asked to prepare
estimates of the cost of boring and
to locate a site.
According to his figures hot water is
to be struck at a depth of 5000 feet,
aud steam at 8 1000 feet. The cost of
boring for hot water will be about
$25. 600; for steam, 800. 900. Colonel
Demming saws:
"When q depth of 900 feet is reached
the temperature of the earth in
creases. The increase is about one
degree to every 60 feet drilled. When
/, 600 feet is reached the temperature
increases more rapidly. the average
then becoming one degree to every 80
feet of boring. The deepest we'll in
this state is 725 feet deep and is a hot
water we'll. A steam we'll equipped
the steam turbines would furnish
power sufficient to operate all of
York's industries. The turbine could
generate electricity for lightning the

DEATH OF JUDGE KENNEDY
Well Known Lawyer Expired at
His Home IN Washington.
WAS JUDGE or THIS CIRCUIT

Appointed By Governor Foreman,
But Not Allowed to Take Office Be-
cause of Sympathy with South.
Intelligence was received in Martins

pointed Judge of what was then the
Tenth judicial circuit in 1854 by Gov
ernor Foreman, the first governor of
West Virginia. He qualified and
took the oath of Office at Charles Town
as judge of Berkeley, Jefferson and
Morgan counties. but never sat upon
the bench. this being prevented by the
state legislature owing to Judge Ken
nedy'a sympathy with the cause of the
south. and it is said, because the place
was wanted for another man.
After the war Judge Kennedy re-
moved to Wheeling, where he practic-
ed law for many years. He later re-
moved to Washington, where he passed
the declining years of his life.l He was
a son OF Andrew Kennedy, Of Jeffer-
son county, and a nephew of former
Senator Anthony Kennedy, of Mary

THAT YOU MAY KNOW.

October ?, 1904, a series of meet
ings will begin at the Methodist
church. DR.. Fl. B. Johnston, of
Brownsville, Tenn, will assist the
pastor, The salvation OF souls is
the object of the meeting. We de-
sire the cooperation of all God S
children in this important move.
All the unsaved are invited to at
tend the services and receive the
blessings OF our Heavenly Father.
Shall we not have a gracious up
lift? How may it be brought
about? The answer is easy. By
each one dong his or her part. If
we find that there is about us any
Indifference, unbelief or excuses let
us Immediately cast them from us.
They can not possibly be helpful;
but will hinder and hurt every one
that entertains them.
Ne day ought we to forget the
solemn fact that some of our loved
ones will soon be shut in the awful
depths of death and hell unless
they repent of their sins and trust
in God for salvation. These loved
ones are daily ander the influence
of our lives.
Surely we love our own life, we
ought to love our kindred, and no
doubt do in some degree, there is
no reason why we should not love
God, but there are thousands of
reasons why we should do so. If
we do not love Him who loves us so
dearly, and blesses US so constant
ly, our folly therein is so apparent,
that the mere mention of it should
occasion its prompt removal.
Let us all strive to daily realize
in our hearts the constraining love
of God, whereby we shall be able to
say Il delight to do thy will Of
God. W. J. Mccoy.
