am not for this stun Of blaming the
jumps for every little thing that goes
wrong. But occasionally some things
are so raw they cannot be overlooked.
The work Of Tim Hurst yesterday IN
both games was a glazing illustration Of
how not TO umpire. In fact, Il was tbs.
very worst exhibition seen here this
year.
Hurst was unnecessarily arbitrarv
and not infreQuently gave decisions be-
fore the play was completed, which is
ever sucker play on the part OF an
Indicator handler. and classes up with a
ballriaycr not running OUT his hits. II
cannot BE- said he was 2rejudiced. A

Some Raw Decisions.

The first man up for Washington in the

VERY INTERESTING ARTICLE
FROM THE PEN OF FISH COM
MISSIONER BOWERS.
Writes of His Department of Fisher
les For Current Number of Ma
tional Geographic Magazine.

The National Geographic magazine
Tor November contains very interest
ing article from the pen OF Mr.. George
NJ. Bowers, of this city, the United
States fish commissioner, who de-
scribes the work of his department in
planting fishes in the ocean.
The article is handsomely illustrate
ed, fine picture Of Mr. Bowers be-
Ing among the Illustrations. The in
teresting work of artificial propaga-
ton is detailed, a chapter being de-
voted to each of several specials of
fish.
Perhaps the most interesting por-

how his department has succeeded in
preserving this unhandsome but sue
culent bird, and of It's rapid increase
under methods employed by his de-

WAS RIGHT ACTION
Merchants Gralifled at Position Of
The Evening Journal.
ON ACCEPTING WASHINGTON 40
Declare That the Course of the Man
agement Is Right, and That the
Home Merchants Should Be
Protected BY Papers.

Perhaps no action taken by The
Evening Journal since the stablish-
ment of the paper has met with more
approval and commentator of tho
business people generally or this city
than its announcement In Mondays
paper that II had refused to accep. the
advertisemnt of number Of Wash
ington business houses, who are reach
Ing out after the retail trade In the
smaller towns In this section, and
who are seeking to induce the people
Of Martinsburg and neighboring cities
to go to Washington to do their Christ
mas shopping.
The object of the refusal OF The
Evening Journal to accept the adver-
tisement was, OF course, to protect
home merchants and business people
The latter have made unusual prcpa-
rations for this seasons deman q and
are In splendid position to supply
the wants Of their patrons. There
fore, there is no reason why Martins
burg people should spend Mart.nsbprg
dollars in Washington. Prices here
will be found to compare very fayor-
ably with prices In any place within
q radius Of several hundred EilIes.
and by shopping at home one saves
the time required to 60 to AMI from
Washington, as well as the railroad
fare. The offer to refund tho railroad
fare tif certain amount OF goods In
purchased) Is an attractive one, put
II is safe proposition that the bu,er
will ultimately pay that railroad fare.
as we'll as his hotel bill, out OF his
own pocket Washington merchants
are not in business for fun.
A representative of this paper In
terviewed number of Martinsburg
business men on this matter and with.
out single exception they heartily
commended the position of the paper
in endeavoring to protect home mer-
chants.

The officers of the Old National
bank took formal possession of their
new banking building this morning,
and are now installed in what is per-
haps the handsomest banking building
in this section of the country.
For many weeks the officers and
members of the force of the Old Ma
tional bank have been making arrange
ments to remove into their fine, new
quarters, but some delay in the work
necessitated postponement until to-
day, when the change was effected.
Throughout the day stream of Wis
itors called at the bank to inspect the
handsome interior decorations, and
many very complimentary comments
on its appearance were heard
The structure is the old Continental
hotel building, which was purchased
some time ago by the board of direc-
tors of the bank. and the work of re-
modelling 1t has been in progress since
early last spring. Complete the build
ing represents an outlay Of about $780,

condition Is such that above all things
he must be free from all anxiety and
worry about judicial matters. Sensi-
tive as he is. nothing is more cruel
on the part OF members OF the bar
and his fellow Judges than for them
to be writing him letters about off,
'cial business in his hands and request
Ing him TO state how soon he will re-
turn. Lawyers and judges, alike, must
stop that II they have any kindly con-
sideration for him. Judge Con has
so long and faithfully worked In his
high Office that he has earned abso-
lutte rest for many. many months,
do not blame my brother lawyers for
writing him for the impression has
been given out heretofore that Judge
Goff's illness was mere slight indis-
position. This is cruelty unjust to
him. He is a very sick man and it
should not be concealed but known.
SO that we may all extend every con-

all join in sincere prayer that he
may soon recover and be with us in
his usual good health and spirits"
