TO SAVE THE COAL SUPPLY.
Crude Methods Of Production Have
Caused Ir-.nense Waste.

Washington. - The government.
through the United States geological
survey. is planning with the producers
day when the country's coal supply
shall be exhausted. Crude methods
of production. with more attention
paid To cheap production than to sav.
ing and scientific methods OF mining,
have resulted in an astonishing waste
of coal. This will never be recog.
nized. for II lies buried deeply in
abandoned mines now filled in. Also,
II is planned to prolong and regulate
the supply of coal by new methods
OF mining, which will, no doubt, result
in adding many years to the existence
of the now available supply.
The extravaganza in the production
OF coal. amounting to almost criminal
waste, has not had the effect CT re.
ducing the cost to consumers. This,
at least. is the opinion Of Edward W.
Parker. of the geological survey. whc
was IA member OF President Roose.

riitions than any man in the country.
One OF the greatest problems to
overcome in the production OF coal. -

waste OF mining. Only few years
ago only 20 per cent. of the coal In
"A mine was marketed. Sixty per cent.
was lost. Cheap mining methods
caused this waste. Under improved
methods the waste has nov been re.
duced to from 30 to 40 per cent"

Rain caused much disappointment
to the local baseball enthusiasts last
Friday evening, when the game in
progress between the Wabash Rail-
road team of Hagerstown and the
home team had to be called on &C.

A large crowd had assembled, in spite
of the threatening weather conditions,
and things were going all our way.
Hagerstown was retired without seor-
ing, and with three rms to the good
and but one man out the game termi-
mated before the first inning was fin
ished.
On Saturday an aggregation of has
beens and ex.baseball players from
Martinsburg came down with the evil
dent expectation of running up against
something easy, but they were sadly
disappointed. Our team outplayed
them at every point and won easily
by the score Of 9 to l. Reinhart
pitched for Shepherdstown, and when
it became evident that the visitors
were outclassed, Rogers was put in
for an inning or two and Triplett also
took turn, just to let them get few
scores, but even then they couldn't do
it. Kerens did effective work behind
the bat and Triplett put up good
game at second base. For the visitors
Samsell and Elliott composed the bat.

game, but received poor support and
was taken out in the fifth.
The Wabash team from Hagerstown

o'clock, and an interesting game is
promised. Although the home team
is somewhat crippled By Remnants

Passing, Passing Away.


Mr.. Henry Trostle. respected res
ident of this vicinity, passed from
earth to heaven Tuesday morning
about four o'clock. His death was
sudden and unexpected, for the pre-
vious day he had seemed as we'll as
usual and performed his daily work
Just as he ordinarily had. Early
Tuesday morning his wife was awak-
ened by some slight noise that he
made, and, failing to arouse him, lit
lamp and found that he was just
breathing his last. Neighbors were
hastily summoned and a physician
sent for but the vital spark had for
ever fed. Mr.. Trostle was in his
68th year. He was native Of Perry
county, Pa. and in his early youth
moved to Cumberland county, Pa.
The year after the war he moved to
this section, and after living for
awhile in Berkeley, county moved to
the DR.. Logic farm near Kearneys-
vile, afterward buying the place. A
few years ago he sold this farm and
moved to the vicinity of Hagerstowu,
but not being entirely satisfied there,
he last spring bought the G. W. Show
place, just east of town, and came
here to spend his declining days, which,
alas, proved to be 80 few. Mr.. Tros-
tie was one of the best men We have
ever known. Pious, upright. God
fearing and conscientious, all who
knew him bear testimony to his in.
tegrity and practical Christianity.
Truly good man has gone. He is
survived by his wife, who is now go
sorely berelt, in losing her beloved
companion with whom for many years
she lived happily and peacefully, and
by two sons-Benjamin F. Trostle,
of McKeesport, Pa, and Rev. John
A. Trostle, pastor of the Presbyterian
Church at Timber Ridge, Va. The
funeral service takes place this after
noon in the Presbyterian Church, of
which the deceased was consistent
member, and the body will be laid to
rest in Elmwood Cemetery.
Mr.. Isaiah Brown Sperow, promi.
nent and wealthy retired farmer Of
Berkeley county, died last Friday at
his home near Spring Mills, aged II
years. He is survived by his wife,
two sons and three daughters. Mr..
Sperow was progressive and success
full farmer until stroke of paralysis
some twenty years ago left him an
invalid.
Mr.. Michael Monaghan, a native of
Ireland but for many years a resident
of Martinsburg, died Sunday, aged
80 years. He was an expert stone
mason. His wife and six sons and
daughters survive him.
Mr.. Andrew Grazier, one of Mar
tinsburg's oldest residents, died last
Monday, aged IS years, He was a
native of Germany, but had lived in
Martinsburg for IS years.

ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Stipp,
died Tuesday night in Shepherdstown,
aged IL months.

Jefferson County Court last week the
following business was transacted:
Upon petition from E. B. John

Shenandoah river.
In the dispute>over the width of the
road in front of the residence prop
erty of Chas. B. Coleman, in Middle
way district, to which Mr.. Coleman
and ]. B. Williams were parties, the
latter accepted the recommendation
of viewers. and agreed to take $50 in
damages and move his fence back so
as to give the road its legal width in
front of Mr.. Coleman's house and
garden.
The Winchester and Washington
Railway Company was represented in
court by its attorney. A. Moore, Jr.,
of Berryville, to ask for the privilege
of stringing its wires along the public
road from Keys Ferry to the quarres
of the Standard Lime and Stone Com
pany, at Millville, distance Of about
a mile. The court granted the priv
ilege, with numerous restrictions, and
qualified its grant by demanding in
return for it 6shway over the dam
of the company, 80 that fish might
have no trouble in travelling up or
down stream at that point, free cleo
trio lights for the Jail and courthouse
in Charles Town, SO long as the CON-
pany supplies current to the town.
The company has not yet signi6ed its
