Whereas it has pleased the Su-
preme Architect of the Universe to
remove from our midst our late
Brother, +. \. Castleman; and

as a man; therefore be it
Resolved, by TreadweII Lodge.
No 2l3, of Ancient, Free and

to ms rest; and that in the death of
Brother CaStleman the Lodge has
lost a Brother who was always
active and jealous in his work as a
Mason, always ready and Willing
to stretch forth his hand To con-
tribute TO the relief of distressed

heartily agree with them TO that extent.
They seem, however. 20 believe in asking ?
largely that their JOY may be full.
But they ask and receive not. because
they ask amiss.
Now, let us note what they are asking
for.
At their first meeting they proposed
to consolidate Chapel and Grcenwav dis
tricts and build a house Jointly. the
building to bepaid for out of the funds
OF the two districts. supplemented by
private subscriptions. And their speak
ers painted a beautiful picture of the
advantages tobe derived from such an
enterprise, representing that such a
school could be made so beneficial and
attractive that it would gradually close
up all the surrounding schools and draw
the children 10 this one place.
Their arguments were so convincinl-
that the Greenway trustees, becoming
somewhat jealous, remarked that If /.
were possibleto have anything like that.
they wanted 1t at White Post. So they
then and there withdrew and hurried
home TO start the enterprise in their
home town, and have not been heard
from since. At a subsequent meeting
they demanded fOur-room brick build
ing, with hall above ITO be converted
into two more rooms when needed). 10
cost $4,000, and to be paid for bv Chapel
district alone
In order to do that, the Trustees would
have 70 borrow the money, and in order
to pay it back they would have 10 ask
for an increase In the public school tax.
The Trustees are reluctant 10 ask for
an increase in taxation unless it Is abso-
lutely necessary, considering the fact
that the people are already overburdened
with taxation
This Is one reason why the Trustees
requested the attendance Of the people
generally at our last meeting, aud for
which we have been censured by IT. :.
because we believe, as he does, that tax
alton neutrality-suspicious. is not fair.
Another reason for requesting an ex-
preston from the people generally was
that, if we are 20 have High School
in Chapel distr ct, is Boyce the best place
for it, or would it be better in central
part of the district:
The Chapel school Board is going 20
do the best itcan for school building
at Boyce, buti, does not think it prudent
or practicable 90 run the district so far
in debt that 1t viii have to neglect other
portions Of the district that need help
and are already making their demands.

A Hard Game TO Lose.

The BerryviIle Baseball Team
went to Martinsburg last Thursday
and played the Martinsburg team
of the Interstate League to a
standstill for nine innings.
Robey; who had been on the
suspended list for the past sixty
days, was reinstated on Tuesday at
a meeting Of the club officers, and
covered himself with glory by
pitching an errorless game Of ball
and allowing only three hits.
With two men down IN the clos
ing half of the ninth inning, Gibbs
let a long fly get away from him.
and one man scored for Martins
burg, tieing the score, as Berry
vile pushed a man over the plate
in the first inning.
On a poor decision by the umpire
on an out at first, the next batsman
was called safe, allowing another
run to score.
While the official score shows
a lost game by 2 to l., it should
have resulted in a victory for Ber-
ryville l to o.
Martinsburg has a good team,
but BerryviIle outpIaycd them at
every stage of the game. Robcy
allowed less hits than his opponent,
and was supported almost fault
lessly.
Hctzel, who pitched for Martins
burg. was not as we'll supported.
as he might have been, and was hit
safely several times.
With men on bases, Hctzel used
excellent Judgment.
The bright particular star of the
game was Robey, and the Martins
burg world speaks of him as
follows:
The Berryville team put up a
splendid game. Robey pitched like
a professional, while his field back
ed him up in fast style. Gibbs in
left and Foley at third saved scv-
cral runs by good work at critical
times.
Gaver, at shortstop, and Dake-
man at first base. accepted every
thing in lightning style, our first
bascman having to reach after
several wide thrown balls.
One of the peculiar features of
the game was that Walters, in
right field, and Smallwood, i'm cen
ter, did not have an error. assist
or put-out, as the Martinsburg
batsman were only able to drive
the ball outside the diamond eight
times. Six of the chances went to
Gibbs, and he only failed on one.
One of the hits was over second
base and the other over third base.
The local management will en-
deavor to secure another game with
the Martinsburg team, and big
crowd ought to turn out in that
city to witness the contest.
