We have been asked recently if

Fatally Burned.

Fatally Burned.
A cloud of sadness cast its gloom
over the village of Summit Point on
Thursday when it became known that
Miss Mary White Kuykendall, eldest
daughter of Mr.. Thos. KuYkendali,
the merchant of that place, had been
terribly burned by the explosion of a
kerosene lamp and had died of her
injuries. The accident occurred about
9o'clock Wednesday evening and Miss
Kuykendall fingered until after s
o'clock the next morning, when death
released her from her suffering.
Many of the circumstances OF the
sad accident are left in doubt. She
was alone when it happened. 1t Is
believed that she was trying to extin-
guish the light of hanging lamp
when 1t exploded, covering her face
and clothing with blazing oil. Her
agonizing screams attracted her father
to the room, and he found her lying
on the floor writhing in flames. He
quickly threw over her a rug gotten
from an adjoining room to smother
out the blaze and sent for DR.. G, A.
DAVIS. The burning oil, it was soon
found, had inflicted fatal injuries, and
medical skill could avail nothing to
save her life.
Miss Kuykendall was an attractive
young lady, eighteen years Of age.
She being the eldest girl in a family
of motherless children, was the head
of her fathers household, and was
greatly loved by those who survive.
Three brothers and two sisters, besides
her father, are berett of her mluistra-
tions by her untimely death. The
funeral was held Friday morning at
the Kuykendall home at Summit
Point, Rev. D. H. Scanlon, Of the
Berryvllle Presbyterian Church, con-
Quoting the services. The remains
were taken to Hampshire county; Mr..
Kuykendall's former home, for inter-
ment.-CharleS To,0n Advocate.

The Whitney Brothers Concert.

We think the concert given In the
college auditorium last night by the
Whitney Brothers Quartette was one
of the most entirely enjoyable musical
entertainments ever given IN Shep-
herdstown From the me odious notes
of their first beautiful song to the
sweet and impressive close OF Peace
be unto you, there was not flaw in
their work nor discordant note in
the pleasure of the audience. The
solos of Alvin NJ Whitney and Yale
B. Whitney were fine, but the num-
bers of the qnartette were so excep'
tionally meiodious the people gave
them breathless attention. The blend
ed voices sounded like the notes of
pipe organ-an exquisite harmony so
full of expression and music that no
one could fail to appreciate 1t The.
musical numbers were lnterspersed
with readings by Edwin NJ, Whitney,
who was as clever and entertaining
and versatile as any one We have yet
heard here. The entire programme
was just as enjoyable as could be de-
sired, and the refined and elevating
character of the entertainment made
it the more app. eciated. Every one
of the Whitneys is an artist, and as
an aggregation they are incompara-
bic.
This concert was the first of the
Shepherd College course Of lectures
ard entertainments for this season and
Prof Knutti must be congratulated
on the success Of the opening concert.
This course is of an excellence that
towns of the size of ours can seldom
secure, and there ought to be such
patronage as will encourage the pro-
moters. Season tickets may still be
secured, and those who appreciate the
value of refined and helpful enter
tainments ought to see that there is
no deficiency In the guarantee.

Wedding Bells Are Ringing.

The Baltimore American of this
morning contains the following ac-
count Of the wedding of Miss Marga-
ret Welshans, of Shepherdstown;
Miss Margaret R. Welshans, daugh-
ter OF the late J. F. Welshans, OF
Shepherdstown, W. Va, and Mr.. Ed
ward st. Clair Clayton, formerly of
Romney, W. Va, were married last
evening at the Margaret ], Bennett
Home, IA East Franklin street. 1t
was the first wedding to take place in
the home, and the board Of trustees
determined that they should carry out
the ideas upon which the home lie con-
Quoted and give the young lady as
nice wedding in every particular as
she would have in her own home.
Upon this broad idea the house was
beautifully decorated with palms and
other potted plants and cut flowers,
The ceremony was performed in the
large parlor, the altar being a massive
bank of evergreen and palms. The
invitations read: 1.-The board OF Irus-
tees Invites you to witness the we'd
ding of their ward, Miss Welshans,
and Mr.. Price, president OF the board,
gave the bride away. The ceremony
was performed by Rev. Z. Peregrlne
Wroth, of the Protestant Episcopal
Church of the Messiah, at s 80 o'clock,
and fully 100 persons witnessed 1t.
The bride was attended by Miss
Gertrude KILLER, who was maid OF
honor, while Mr.. Roger Shivers acted
as best man. The bride was attired
in beautiful gown Of white mule
over white silk, trimmed with white
satin ribbons. She wore veil caught
with orange blossoms and carried
white chrysanthemums. Her maid
wore white organdle and carried
white chrysanthemums.
Immediately after the ceremony
reception was rendered the couple.
The wedding march was played by
Miss Clair Sansbury and Mr.. Wilmer
Ray, who performed on the piano and
violin, respectively. Nh. and Mrs.
Clayton will reside at ia West
Franklin street.
Many beautiful presents. were re-
ceived by the newly married couple.
Most of them were Of the variety that
will be useful for many years. There
was a good quantity Of cut glass, sill
yer, china and pictures, A handsome
suit of furniture and other house
hold furnishings were also received.
The other young ladies of the home
presented the bride with several
beautiful pieces OF silver.
Mrs. Clayton came to this city from
Shepherdstown about two years ago.
She became member OF the MNga-
ret J. Bennett household and had re-
sided there ever since. The home IS
not charitable institution III any
sense of the word. All vi tue young
ladies support themselves AID pay
board, but they are often uYht tor
work of any sort; then the officials OF
the home prepare the young ladies
for some line of work by which they
can earn a living.

Distressing Accident.

dealer of Summjt Point, met with q
terrible accident last Saturday after
noon, by which his right hand was
torn from bis wrist. The accident
happened at the corn shelter in Mr..

took an oil can and started to oil the
machinery, which was III motion at
the time. His hand was caught in
the belt and jerked with terrific speed
into the revolving machinery. 1t was
ground to pulp in the teeth Of the
corn shelter before Mr. Coyle could
jerk away. The machine was filled
with the bloody fragments of the hand.
With blood pouring from his mangled
hand, Mr.. Coyle managed to walk to
his office, where he sank exhausted
from the shock and loss of blood. He
lost consciousness for time. Physi-

article being 1.-THE Valley Of the Shen-

is described most Interestingly the
homes of the Revolutionary generals
in Jefferson county. There are fine
pictures Of the homes of General Ho-
ratio, Gates, General Charles Lee and
General Adam Stephen, and also Of
the graves of General Stephen and
General Darke. The article, so pretti-

Turnpike Commissioner James K.
Hendricks has bought a road plow
for use in ditching the turnpikes Of
Jefferson county. This is another
forward step in the good roads move
ment, for the importance of proper
drainage for our roads can hardly be
over-estimated. Many persons be-
lieve that keeping the bitches open
and properly draining the water from
the highways will very largely reduce
the cost of maintenance and at the
same time give us much better roads;
Water, not wear, is the enemy of good
roads, and we are glad to note that
Commissioner Hendricks is giving the
matter his best attention. The new
road pillow is said to be something OF
a wonder in the way Of making a
ditch. 1t will be drawn by trac-
