Another delightful day was spent by

sembled in the pavilion, where, near the
rolling Pacific, a short but interesting
session was held. Prof. e. |. Bosworth
made an address on "The Value of
Common Life before a large audience.
Women of the churches at Long
Beach had prepared over 300 dainty
basket lunches, which were served at
the end of the pier at the close of the
session. This part of the program
proved one of the most enjoyable fea-
lures. Little groups gathered for pleas
ant chats. During the luncheon hour
the band disbursed music. The party
left the beach town in time to return
to the First Congregational church for
the o'clock session.
The afternoon was devoted to confer
ences, which proved of much help and
interest to the different departments.

shepherdstown Boy Climbing the Ladder.


From the Washington news of the
Baltimore Sun of yesterday we take
the following item concerning a for
mer resident of Shepherdstown-a son
of the late T. W. Latimer and Mrs.
M. j. Latimer:
Mr.. J. Wilmer Latimer, who for
twelve years has been connected with
the Supreme Court of the District of

ing for six years been an assistant to
the clerk of the court, today rendered
his resignation to Clerk John R.
Young, to take effect October l next,
after which date Mr.. Latimer expects
to engage in the practice of law. In
accepting the resignation Mr.. Young
complimented the work Of Mr.. Lati.
mer in the highest terms and predict
ed success for him at the bar. Mr..
Latimer came to Washington from his
birthplace, Shepherdstown, W. Va,
in 1894 to study law at the Columbian
University Law School, from which
he graduated in 1897, being one Of
the honor menof the class. He is now
member of the law faculty Of his alma
amater. He was admitted to the Dis.
trict bar in the year he finished the

The Death Record.

Mr.. John Musgrove, native Of
Shepherdstown and a Confederate
Veteran, died at the Confederate Sol
diers' Home in Richmond, Va, last

Der of Company B, Second Virginia

home several years ago. Recently,
we are informed, he lost his mind en-
tirely aud had to be watched con-
stantly. He was twice married, but
we believe left no children. he is
we'll remembered here by our older
people.
Mrs. Virginia Legg, wife of Mr..
Allen G. Legg, of Bunker Hill, Berke-
ley county, died last Friday night OF ty-
phoid fever at the age of 81 years. Mrs.
Legg was a Miss Clendenning, OF a

Mr.. Staley's Team Goes Over a Bank.

Mr.. Staley'S Team Goes Over Bank.
A thrilling accident happened to
Allen A. Staley and his family last
Saturday night at leagues run, on
the river road, about half mile east
of Shepherdstown. Mr.. Staley was
coming to town with his family, driv-
ing one of his carriage horses and
colt to his surrey. At leagues run
a temporary bridge was made after
the gilbert at that place had been
washed out by the food some weeks
ago, and it is narrow crossing of a
dangerous place-a deep gully on
either side making it ticklish place
to get over. JUST as the team got at
the most dangerous point the colt be.
came frightened at something and be-
gan to plunge about. Mr.. Staleys
wife and children jumped out of the
carriage and he attempted to control
the horses, but in spite OF his efforts
the colt crowded the other horse over
the embankment and both fell into
the deep hole fifteen or twenty feet
below. The tongue of the carriage
broke OF and the vehicle did not go
over the embankment. Mr.. Staley
was unable to do anything to extri-
cate the animals himself, so he bur.
ried to town and got number of
persons to go out to help him. They
finally managed to get the colt out of
the hole, and though it was pretty
stiff, they took it home and it will
probably get all right. The other
horse was so badly hurt it could not
help itself, and by the next morning
it was dead. 1t was buried near by.
The accident was very thrilling one,
and it is extremely fortunate that no
one was hurt. A new iron bridge is
to be erected as soon as possible, but
in the meantime it is a dangerous
place, and persons will do well to
avoid it.

They Wouldn't Give Us A Special Train.


Seventy tickets were sold from Ha-
gerstown TO the Morgan's Grove Fair.
Many persons who had intended going
changed their minds when they learned
there was no special train, not caring
to remain in Shepherdstown until the
return of the regular train, which
leaves at 9.l9, but which is usually
late. -HageyStOWH Globe,
This item reminds US that General
Passenger Agent Bevill of the Nor
folk & Western Railway absolutely
refused under any conditions to run
special from Hagerstown and re-
turn for the benefit of persons desir-
ing to attend the Morgan's Grove
fair. He simply wouldn't consider
the matter, and the fair lost much
patronage and number of persons
were greatly disappointed. The con-
summate stupidity of the average
railroad official and their disregard
of the public accommodation seem to
become greater instead of less.

A Tragedy in charles Town District.

A fatal tragedy, attended by some
peculiar circumstances, occurred last
Thursday afternoon at Gibsontown, a
negro settlement about two miles
south of Charles Town. A man
named Samarion, who Gays that his
father was a Hindoo and his mother
an Egyptian woman, came to this
country from Sidney, Australia, some
eighteen months ago and located near
Charles Town. He was music teach
er, and earned his living by follow
ing this profession. He incurred the
enmity Of his negro neighbors by adj
vising them to accept white supremacy
as a settled fact, and his views upon
this subject are said to have aroused
the strenuous luminosity of Jasper
Thompson, colored man who, it is
said, advocated negro equality and
was particularly oficious at elections
in opposing the white majority.
Under the leadership of Thompson,
the negroes of the neighborhood are
said to have been prosecuting Samar-
ion and his wife in various ways, and
have several times stoned his house.
One day last week he went to Charles
Town to swear out warrants for sew
eral negroes who had been seeking to
iniure him. and was to have consum-
mated the matter on Friday.
Thursday Samarion notified Thomp.
son to keep his hogs out of his (Sa-
marion's) lot or he would kill them.
This started the trouble afresh. Some
time during the afternoon Thompson
went to Samarion's house and started
a quarrel. Samarion says that his
enemy threatened to kill him and
made motion to draw pistol. Sa-
marion quickly pulled his own re.
volver and shot Thompson twice, and
the wounded man walked few steps
away and fell dead. The news Of the
shooting created great excitement
among the negroes, and threats 10
lynch Samarion were made. The
latter and his wife got out of the
house the back way to avoid the
crowd, and went to the home of Jailer
S. G. Young, near Charles Town,
where he surrendered to S. G. Young,
Jr., who took him to jail, where he is
now imprisoned. A good deal of SYM
pathy, we understand, has been ex-
pressed for Samarion. He has but
one name, in accordance with Au-
stralian custom.
Thompson, the man who was killed,
was about 90 years old, and leaves a
wife and nine children.

A Straight
Talk on Paint.

To but off painting is WastefHI
negligence.
To use poor PAINTS false economy.
Good paint used when needed IS
a profitable in0eStmeNt-not an ex-
pense.
No argument needed on these
points, no investigation-but the
selection of a good paint is a prob
lem, and a hard one, too.
Why? Because there is so much
fraud in the paint business. It's
so easy to fool the people on paint.
