There is not shade of doubt that

one of the most important and hard

gresham and will prove equal to the de-
mands OF his new position. -

young lady of Charles Town was one of
Of the parties principal, we take from the
Winchester Star of Thursday
A pretty romance. in which pretty
girl from Charles Town was the central
figure, had its elimination in Winches-
ter last night IN an elopement that was
not altogether an elopement, the father Of
the bride being present at the ceremony.
The bride was Miss Nora Naomi Pentz,
the pretty eighteen year-old daughter of
Mr.. ]. L. Pentz. formerly well-known
merchant of this city. but now OF Charles
Town, Jefferson county. w. Va. and
Mr.. F. ]. Kreick. machinist. whose
home is in Philadelphia. The couple
came to Winchester on train No. 1. over
the Baltimore and Ohio last night. reach
ing here shortly after 7 o'clock. They
went at once to the Hotel Evans and a
marriage license was soon procured from
City Clerk Richard L. Gray. Mr.. Pentz,
the father of the young lady, accom-
panied the couple here and assisted in
making the arrangements, being present
to give his consent when the license was
issued. With the license the couple. ac-
companied by the brides father, were
driven to the residence of Rev. DR..
James r. Graham, pastor emeritus of the
Presbyterian Church, who soIemnized the
ceremony that made them man and wife
They then returned to their apartments
at the Hotel Evans, and this morning
left for Charleston. w. Va, from which
point they will later 40 to New Orleans
and then by sea to New York City.
Their future home will be in Philadelphia.
After the wedding Mr.. Pentz presented
his daughter with five twentv-dollar gold
pieces as wedding present. The bride
is quite pretty young lady of eighteen
summers, She has been in the telephone
exchange at Charles Town and is very
popular. Her mother it appears, object
ed to her marriage on the ground of her
youth. Determining to carry out her
purpose, the young lady. went to her
father yestesday and enlisted his approx
al and assistance. A telephone message
was sent here Yesterday afternoon. and
when the couple arrived with Mr.. Pentz
there was little or no trouble in procur-
ing the license. The young couple, it is
stated, have been lovers for the past
tkree years.

State Taxation of National Banks.

1t has been stated in the Martinsburg
papers that at recent term of the Cir
cult Court in that city a decision was
rendered by Judge Daley to the effect
that National bank is exempt from tax
alton, by reason of having its capital
stock invested in Government bonds.
There must be some mistake in this state
ment for we think Judge Daley is too
good lawyer to have given such a de-
cision, The liability of National bank
for taxation was settled by the. following
decision of the Supreme Court of the
United States. in the case of Van Allen
VS. the Assessors. 3 Wallace. s73:
THE entire interests of the sharehold-
ers may be taxed without any deduction
for that portion of the capital VIII ich is
invested in United States securities

rency for 1898, volume |, page 1851.

wait without shelter until the train moves,
and cross several intervening tracks to
