Since the story that he was dying Of

and his physicians have received nearly
100 letters from persons aiming to

For Bryan and Kern Club.

A meeting of Democrats will be
held at the Courthouse on Saturday
afternoon, August 80, at 2 o'clock,
when it is hoped that large at
tendance will be registered and an
enthusiastic club form.
We understand that the Bryan
and Kern Club which was organ
lied in Charles Town some time
ago started off with a membership
of about 200, and that fact should
inclte the local Democrats to extra
efforts forne Saturdays meeting.
We are also informed that a reso-
luton was adopted in Charles Town
to the effect that every member Of
the Club withdraw his support
from the Baltimore Sun, which
recently left the Democratic party
and announced its intention of
supporting Taft.
Good speakers from other States
and towns will be brought here to
address the people, under the
auspices of the Bryan and Kern
Club, and the membership in that
Club should be a much-sought
privilege.
Let every voter who feels that
an emphatic protest should be
registered against the high-tariff
policies of the Cannon and Sherman
regime come out and join the Bryan
and Kern Club.

BASEBALL
Nebraska Indians. I: BerrYViIIe. 0.

The three hundred or more peo-
pie who saw the game between
Berryville and Green's Nebraska
Indians on Monday. August II,
were we'll paid for their admission
price, for it was a good game-re-
Fplete with fast fielding, critical
moments, errors, and everything
which goes to make up the real
baseball game.
Roszel was at his best. and the
Indians only scored three hits off
his delivery, while the locals
secured four bingles off of Baker,
but the eight errors of the locals
gave the Indians four runs and the
game.
The Indians are clever set of
men-both as players and per-
sonally-and made a great hit"
with the local players and specta-
toS.
All of the Indians runs we're
scored on errors, three of the four
scorers reaching first on misplays.
The locals had chance to score
in the sixth inning, but it was
fruitless. Gaver tapped a nice one
for a single, Wood was safe at first
on an ATTEMPTED sacrifice, on which
Gaver reached second: Percy Wood
fOuled out to catcher; Foley then
tore off one to right center on
which he reached second, but,
when Gaver turned back from the
plate, Wood was forced to return
to second and Foley to first, on
which play Wood was called out;
). Smallwood ended the agony by
tanning the air.
The big storm which was ap-
preaching after the sixth inning
caused many of the spectators to
leave, but the game was completed
and the players had reached town
before the storm broke.
The fielding feature for the Wis
itors was the work of Tobash in
right field, and running catch of
difficult foul by Crow the third
baseman. For the locals. the bat
terry work of Roszel and Wood
and a fine running catch by Shep-
herd in right field we're the best.
Manager Tobey. of the Indians.
was we'll pleased with the game
and treatment here, and promised
to give the locals another date for
next year. All of the Indians were
high in their praises of the Battle
town Inn and the treatment of
Host White.

In MEM0RIAM.

In sad but loving remembrance of my
dear husband, Clifton Lee, who died two
years ago, August 15, 1906
Oh, could open wide thy grave
And see thy face once more.
And hear thy voice is all crave
As in the days of yore.
For I am alone, yes, alone,
In this great world Of strife,
You are not here 10 walk with me.
Through the rugged path Of life.
Gone from earth, yes, gone forever,
Tear-dimmed eyes Will gaze in vain.
We shall hear his voice, oh, never,
NevermOre on earth again.
Home is sad, oh, God, how dreary.
Lonesome, oh, how lonesome in every
spot,
Listening for his voice till weary,
Weary, for We hear it not.
But why should We weep when the
weary ones at rest
In the bosom OF Jesus supreme,
In the mansion of glory prepared for the
bleSt?
For death IS only dream.
In The years fast ieeting by
Thou wilt not be forgot,
For in our hearts for three still blooms
The sweetest forget-me-not
