Rev. L. S. Dunawav, for the past
five and one-half years pastor OF the
First Baptist church. and one OF the
most popular ministers in this city,
Sunday night rendered his resignation
as pastor of bis charge here TO accept
an urgent call to become pastor OF the
First Baptist church at Smittfield,
Va considered one of the most de-
sirable charges in the south. Only a
few members of Mr.. Dunaway's con
~oregation knew Of his intended action
and when he announced his resigna-
ton at a congregational meeting
after the evening servicts. the people
we're overcome by surprise and re-
qret Action was immediately taken
to get Mr.. Dunaway to reconsider his
resignation. but when 1t became
known that lie had already accented
the call to Smith, id, and was deter
mind 10 leave Martinsburg, all efforts
to get him to remain were abandoned,
and the congregation accepted the re-
signation. A committee was appoint.
ed to draw up suitable resolutions of
regret, and to look around for a new
pastor. who will be secured at the
earliest possible date.
Mr.. Dunaway has been a very popu-
lar minister here, and has done a
SPLENDID work among the members of
his congregation. His passionate mas
been one of the longest and most sue
cessful in the history of the church.
and he will leave many friends be-
hind him when he departs on August
81 for his new field of labor. During
his pastorate here about 230 persons
have been added to the membership of
his church, a net gain Of about 100
while the contributions for general
purposes have been materially in
creased.
The call just accepted by MIR. Duna-
way was the third received by him
recently. His new charge is a small
one. and a new $50, 900 church edifce
was recently erected and paid for by
the members. While the people of
Martinsburg will generally regret to
lose Mr.. Dunaway, they will wish
him success and happiness in his new
field of labor.

EDWARD GLOVER A SUICIDE.
BERKELEY COUNTY FARMER ENDS
LIFE wITa A
Vas Dependent Because OF III Health
and Killed Himself In a
Fit of Insanity.

Mr.. Edward Glover, an aged and
~well-known resident of Elyria, in the
southern part of this county, COM
mitted suicide about A O'Clock SUNDAY
afternoon at the home of his son, Mr..
Ernest Glover. with whom he had
been living for several years. The
rash deed was accomplished when the
members of the sons family were
temporarily absent, and followed a fit
of desponendcy.
For the past two years Mr.. Glove
had been in i'll health. and was often
heard to express the wish that he
would die. He was subject to periods
of great dependency. and it is be-
lieved that these fits led to mental
alteration. He secured a revolver
during mi these periods of despond-
ency. and placing the weapon to his
right temple he fired the fatal shot.
The bullet passed entirely through the
head coming out behind the left ear.
The unfortunate man lived about an
hour after committing the deed, but
died without regaining consciousness.
Mr.. Glover was aged "A years, and
was a native of Berkeley county. He
formerly followed the occupation of a
farmer, but had lived a retired life of
several years past. He is survived by
several sons,

More Than 400 Of Uncle Sans Boys
Come in This Afternoon on

Martinsturg had its first glimpse

several years this afternoon, when at
2 20 O'Clock troops L, q and II. Of the
Thirteenth United States cavalry.
came in from Winchester, and passed
through John and South Queen streets
to their temporary camp on the old
fair grounds. Owing to the uncer-
taintv regarding the time of the
arrival OF the soldiers, but few people
reviewed the impressive parade Of the
cavalry, and the boys in khaki passed
through almost deserted streets to
their quarters.
The soldiers are regulars from Fort
Myer, just across the Potomac from
Washington. and are on their annual
prac ice march from that fort to Mt.
Gretna. Pa, where they will take
part in the great national encampmnt
to be held this summer. and in which
the national guard from West Nir-
GINA will latter take part. There is a
total of about 425 men. including
officers, privates n those IN charge
OF the commissionary and supply
wagons. All are mounted, and the
long line. as the soldiers filed through
the streets. was impressive in the
extreme. Each man is equipped with
sabre, carbine. side arms, canteen,
blanket, ETC., and the big supply
wagons that followed the line of
troopers contained almost everything
necessary for the comfort of the
soldiers while on the march. The
troopers are under the command of
Col. II. 2. Hatfield, q tall and
soldierly officer. who besrrode his
charger with grace and confidence.
The soldiers were lot long in get
ting their camp in shape. and within
an hour after their arrival the old fair
ground began to assumei the aspect
of a tented field. Many visitors
were attracted 10 the spot. but the
work of placing the camp in shape
tor the men was not interferred with
by the visitors. There was some
difficulty experienced in securing
suitable quarters for the men. owing
to the wet condition of the ground.
but the old fair ground was finally
selected as being the highest and
dryest spot in this section. The
supply of water there is said to be
adequate.
The soldiers will break camp We'd
