Pushing Work On The New Bridge.

Superintendent Stevens, who ls man
aging the construction of the new Nor
folk & Western Railway bridge across
the Potomac river at Shepherdstown
for contractor David W. Flickwir, has
been pushing work lively the past
week. The first pier to be built IN
the river is now under construction.
A coffsrdam was built and a solid
rock foundation obtained about three
feet below the bed of the river.
When the water had been pumped out
of the cofferdam the men began to
dump concrete into it at a rapid rate,
working night and day until 1t was
built above the water level. The con-
crete is mixed on the Virginia shore
and carried in huge iron buckets on
cables to the pier.
One of the principal piers, that which
stands on the towpath between the
canal and the river, has been finished.
and all of the small piers for the via
duct on the Maryland side ofthe riv-
er have been completed. The con-
crete abutment on the Maryland side
has not been finished. A considera-
bic amount of grading has been done
on the West Virginia side, a deep cut
being made almost to the Lutheran
Church and High street being flied
at the crossing.

bot Weather and Fierce Storms.

The weather the past week has been
unusually hot for this season of the
year. The sun shone with blazing
fervor from unclouded skies, and the
mercury crept higher and higher, reach
ing the top notch yesterday afternoon
at 2 O'Clock, when the REGISTER S
thermometer showed 9S degrees in
the shade. 1t was hard on man and
beast, particularly in the harvest 6elds,
where the intense heat was most Sc
we're on the horses drawing the binders.
The hot spell was ended by sue.
cessiou of storms yesterday afternoon.
The clouds began to form about noon,
and by three o'clock a fierce storm
broke. Fierce lightning and heavy
thunder continued for nearly an hour,
and violent wind drove the rain in
binding sheets. There was a good
deal of hail, too, and for a time the
elements joined in a meteorological
bombardmeut that was from comfort
able. The fierce wind and rain blew
down the growing corn, and the wheat
standing ready for the reaper was
twisted and flattened. The limbs Of
many trees were blown off in town,
and number of trees were uprooted
here and in the country roundabout.
The storm centre seems to have been
about two miles north of town. At
d. L. Lyne's place it was very severe.
The hail fell in Quantities, breaking a
number of window panes in his dwell
ing, and it beat the wheat to the
ground and riddled the growing corn.
Lightning struck shock Of wheat on
Bellevue farm, just north Of town, and
burned it, and other shocks were scat.
tered by the fierce wind. Several
shocks of wheat were also struck by
lightning and burned on the G. A
Licklider farm, tensnted by William
Rowe.
Charles Jacobs, who lives on the Tab
Ter farm, near Bedington, met with
serious misfortune as result of the
storm. When he saw theangry-look-
ing clouds come up he drove his four
horse team to the barn, and soon after
he had gotten it sheltered the struc
ture, which was an old one, blew
down. The heavy timbers fell upon
the horses, knocking them down and
imprisoning them in the wreckage
Mr.. Jacobs was in town last night to
inquire about his insurance, but as he
was insured only against FIRE and light
ming he was informed that nothing
could be recovered. He said that
they had been unable to get the horses
from under the timbers, and he
feared that they would be dead by
this morning.

HATING AVERAGE TO DATE.

With more pluck than discretion
our boys braVely tackled the Hagers-
town team last Monday on the grounds
of the latter. That they were up
against the real thing is shown by the
score of seven to nothing in Hagers-
towns favor. Grayson pitched for
Shepherdstown, and though he threw
a speedy ball, he lacked control and
Rogers was unable to hold him. Our
boys made seven errors, all Of which
were promptly taken advantage of by
the home team. Hagerstown was
shut out in the last three innings.
Miller caught and Russell pitched for
Hagerstown. Our boys need not feel
ashamed of the fight they put up, for
they were against team Of paid pro-
ffessionals-only one man on the Hag-
erstown team being a resident of that
place-and did as well as any other
amateur club could have done. In
deed, they played much better game
than team from Harrisburg, Pa,
put up on Saturday previous, for 1t
was defeated by a score Of Is to
nothing. An enthusiastic crowd of
rooters from Shepherdstown accom-
panied our team, and when Triplett
whacked the second ball and made
two bases on it there was great shout
ing. After that, however, the en-
thusiasm gradually leaked away, for
his was the only hit we made. The
umpire was Maisack, and 1t cannot be
said that he unduly favored Shep-
herdstown.
Hagerstown was to have played a
return game in Shepherdstown today,
having contracted to do so before our
team went to that place, but this morn
ing Secretary Reinhart got letter
from Secretary Frank Ridenour say
ing that the Hagerstown team would
not come. He stated that the game
was Cancelled because the directors OF
his club considered themselves
"gouged" by the hotel bill (of 81 SOY
for fifteen persons. Now if any goug-
ing of this sort was doLe, the hotel did
it. Thirteen persons composed the
party whose expenses were paid by the
chincby Hagerstowners-the regular
nine, three substitutes and the official
scores. The railroad fare for these
thirteen was paid without question,
and only this number was registered
at the hotel as belonging to the club.
Even if the hotel had charged for the
fifteen, the Hagerstown people are
pretty small to have squealed 80 for
the extra dollar.
The truth is very proba bly, quite
different from Mr.. Ridenours state.
ment. Frederick was to have played
in Hagerstown yesterday. Rain pre-
vented the game, and the Frederick
team remained over until today to
play it. Then the Hagerstown team
had to cook up an excuse for breaking
their contract here, and they agreed
on the cheap device above described.
