ANOTHER PIONEER DEPARTS.
Mr.. Simeon w. Green Passes Away At
An Advanced Age.


Sunday morning last, after pro-
tracted illness, Mr.. Simeon Ward
Green, one of the oldest and most
highly respected farmers of this com
munity, died at his home on the
Green Farm, Laurel Run, Garrett
county, aged "a wears, 10 months and
81 days. Mr.. Green was IA prosperous
farmer and timber dealer and was

section of Allegany and Garrett cOun-
ties.
Mr. Green was born March 3, 1880,
on the place known as the old Green

place where he resided up to his death.
His sons all married farmers daugh-
tiers, and his daughters all married
farmers sons. He resided on his
farm where he died for the past forty
years.
At an early age Mr. Green united
with the Disciples and had been a
member up to the time of his death.
He was one of the principal founders
and pillars of the Mt. Union Church
of which he was also trustee, and
his absence from the official boards
will be keenly felt.
Deceased is survived by As grand
children and ? great-grandchildren.
In politics Mr.. Green was a staunch
Republican.
The funeral took place yesterday
afternoon, services being conducted
by Rev. T. B. Digman, of the Broth
rem Church, of Berkeley Springs, w.
Va, who spoke from the text, Mat
thew Va chapter and ? and 3 verses.

son, and Stanley jacobs. Interment
was made in the family burying
ground on the home farm. The flu
neral was largely attended by persons
from all parts of Allegany and Gar
rett counties.-Lonaconing Star.

Oakland,

Dear Sir: Mr.. N. Ayery, Delhi, N Y
had two houses exactly alike, and
painted them: one Deyoe lead-and-
zinc; the other barytes-and-zinc He
paid same price for both paints.
He used six gallons of lead -and-zinc,
12 gallons barytes-and-zinc.
He paid SIS for painting lead-and-
zic, $36 for painting barytes, and-zinc.
The total cost of the lead and zinc
job was S 81; the total cost of the barry
tes-and zinc job was $54.
He didn't known he was buying
barytes; the dealer told him that paint
was good as Devoe.
A fair example of how it generally
comes-out, when you buy something
just AS good" Better go by the
name: the name; and the same is De-
woe

IMPROVING RAILROAD SERVICE.
SCHEDULE of Summerton Train to Be
Changed to Give Passengers More
Time In the City.

President Thomas Wilson of the
Northwestern Railroad, in reply to
the request of the Chamber of Com
merce that "short mileage" tickets
from Snmmerton to Sumter and re-
turn, via Wilson's Mill be sold in
order to allow passengers to return in
the evening at 6. 30 over the Central
Railroad and make connection with
n. W. Railroad at Wilson'S Mill, says
that he does rot think he can make
such an agreement with the A. G. L.
Railroad Company because the Allan
tic Coast Line Company would scarce
ly agree to the proposition. He, how
ever. writes further:
eve now have under consideration
a change of schedule bteween Wilson's
Mill and Sumter that will lengthen
the lay over of our train at Sumter,
and consequently give passengers
longer time in Sumter between trains
for the transaction of business. This
change will, I think, prove satisfac-
tory''
Most any change which Will give
passengers an opportunity to do their
shopping and attend to other business
between trains will be great I'M
provement on the present schedule.

that there are many streams in the

such stream flows near village or
town he urges that the power be de.
vopd, converted into electricity and

Whv Suffer From Rheumatism?

Why suffer from rheumatism when one
application of Chamberain's Pain Balm
will relieve the pain? The quick relief
which this liniment affords makes rest and

that after awhile the relief became perma-

GRAND JURY PREsENTMENTs.
Find all Books of the Various officers
in Good Order and They Rec
onmend Sale of Court House
Square for SSo,900.

To His Honor, Judge J. c. Klugh. Etc:
We, your grand jury, beg to make
this, our presentment:
|, We have examined, passed upon
and returned all bills given to US. We
through our committee, visited the
county Offices, including the Offices of
| treasurer, auditor, judge Of probate,
clerk of court, superintendent OF edu-
cation and sheriff, which we have ex-
amined in cursory manner only ow-
ing to the limited time at our disposal,
| but will go into a more minute exam
ination during the recess of the court.
We find the above Offices kept in a
proper manner as far as we could see
in the time allotted. We note, how
ever, that the clerk of court is very
much crowded for room to store his
records, and we recommend that
+ some suitable place be provided. We
note the Improvement to the grounds
around the court house. We recon-
mend that the clerk Of court be re-
quested to keep all bill boards, pos
ters. and such like from any part of
the court house premises. we also
recommend that the clerk Of court be
requested to nave the police telephone
station near the court house steps and
the stand under the piazza removed
or made to present a more slightly ap-
pearance by the erection Of a new or
neater stand.
The Jail we find in fairly good con-
dition except as to sleeping apart
ments; they should be improved and
kept neater. The sanitary condition
is good, but we note that the waste
pipe from the second floor down is
insufficient and i'll need Of repairs. We
hnd the county aims house kept in
excellent condition, the paupers them 4
selves say that they have plenty and
are well provided for. Whe find the
inmates to be sixteen whites and nine
negroes. we notice that there are
some children in the aims house who
should be placed in homes of relia-
BILE people if such homes can be Sc
cured for them. The chain gang
was visited and we found the prison
ers at work and everything was kept
well and conducted in excellent man
ner.
We recommend that the magistrate
be supplied with necessary stationery
in their official capacity.
We have had the report Of the
county supervisor and the board Of
county commissioners for the fiscal
year 1904.
Upon information given us as to
the manner Of of some Of the mag
istrates in conducting cases, we rec
ommend that Magistrate mo F.
ingram be instructed upon the law
as to the amount and character OF
evidence necessary to send prisoner
up to the higher court and the neces-
sity Of obtaining and keeping all the
evidence in each case
We understand that there has been
an offer Of 100000 for the purchase
Of The. court house property; we there
fore recommend that such a sale be
made for not less than that amount,
provided that upon the investigation
of the matter by the proper officers
such sale be advisable.
All Of which is respectfully sub
nitted. NJ. r. Randle,
Foreman.
