Reduced Their Rates.

The Western Union Telegraph Com.
pany has, we are glad to note. seen
the unfairness Of the new schedule Of
rates and has gone back to more
reasonable tariff. The rate from
Shepherdstown to Baltimore and
Washington has for years been rs
cents for ten words, but under a re-
cent order this was increased to 40
cents. The increase was go unjusti6-
able that general protest was made.
The telegraph was dropped and the
long distance telephone was getting
all the business. The Western Union
could not justify the increase, and it
did not want to lose the business, so
the old rate has been restored. The
rate to points in West Virginia has
been fixed at 35 cents, except to
Charleston, for which the reasonable
price of 25 cents is asked.

Where you have gone 10 stay;
There al the folk are pleasant folk,
AT work, and song and play.
Should tears o'erfOw their happy eyes,
God wipes those tears away.

That scuds before the wind
o, would my soul were flying fast
That lovely land to find;
And all the hopes and fears Of earth
Were growing dim behind.

for some time in the vicinity where his
sudden and untimely end came.
