Judge Swayne's name became farnil-

close of the first session of the Fifty
ninth Congress, 1t lasted six weeks
and was the first impeachment pro-
ceeding In that body since the trial of
Secy. of War Belknap under the Grant

he made excessive CHARGES against the
government for expenses. that he used
his position to extort favors from rail-

ton summoned by direction of the
Court to hear testimony and assess the

proposed new court house, met and af-
ter viewing the land and buildings
thereof adjourned to the court house
where witnesses were heard and argu-
ments .:ade in the case, returning q

amined during the proceedings, all of
whom testified as to the value of the
property, some placing it as low as
$4,000 and others as high as $500.

Grim and the Board of County Commits
sioners, whereby the former agreed to
sell the property to the Commissioners

sidered judges of the true value of Oak
land real estate is that the price award
ed by the Jury is equitable and just.

SMITHS MARCH FORECAST
West Virsinia's ProsnoSticator Fore
tells the Weather for Mex. Month.

March is usually blustery month,
attended by quick changes in tenn
perature and storms of a dangerous
character, especially in several of the
southern states and also on the gulf
and Atlantic coasts. Middle sections of
the country will not be entirely free
| from the winter storm. The storm
wave starting at the close Of February
is likely to be reinforced by exciting
| causes and continue the disturbance to
the 5th or 9th and then be followed by
a cold wave. The disturbance will turn
from the north after starting with rain,
then sleet and snow. The wave will be
of wide extent and cover most of the
country in some form of disturbance.
A warm wave will usher in a storm
period on the 10th or 11th. This period
borders on the equinoXial phase of dis
turbance which as a general rule brings
severe gales on both land and sea, earth
currents become more active and often
denote this form of disturbance with
fearful results at the equinoxial period
On or touching the 14th the temperature
will become warm and storms will be in
process of formation which will enter
upon their transit on the 18th.
Electricity will accompany most of the
clouds. The disturbance will be of
general extent, reaching mostly all
parts Of the country. At the final wind
ing up Of this period snow and more
winter will materialize. A warm wave
will be felt on or touching the 10Th, Dist
and 22d, when rain, sleet and snow will
be the outcome and March cold wave
will follow. The last storm period of
the month will be central on or touching
the 9th or 28th and likely to run to the
80. This wave will be of wide and gen
eral extent, touching all parts of the
country in its transit. The wave will
vary in its character of intensity, kind
and force with location and latitude, in
many portions of the west and north
west it will be a winter blizzard, the
cold wave following will spread over
much of the country.

War Relics Found in a Los.

While saving large oak log on a
tract Of timber land west of Hagers-
town, George Beard made an UNUSUAL
discovery in a hole IN the log that
was about 30 feet up from the ground
when the tree was standing. In the
hole was a brass plate containing the
name in cut-out letters of D. Quigley,
Company F, One Hundred and Nine
teenth Pennsylvania Volunteers. With
the plate were some old documents,
but they were practically destroyed by
age and their contents could not be
learned. 1t is believed the papers and
plate were placed in the hole of the
tree by Union soldier, doubtless a
sharpshooter or spy, during the Civil
War.

Astronomical journal uses the following
language in describing it: "Do you
realize what rare thing in nature it
was? 1t has not happened before or since
the beginning of the Christian era, or
probably since the creation of the
world. 1t will not occur again according
to the computations of the astronomer
