The Passing of the Red Cedar Chest.

The Passing or the Rea SedaT SheSt'
1t was a bulky, cumbersome piece OF
furniture at the best, and far from being
infalIible. Moths would keep away from
your clothes and furs if you were sure to
put them in the chest before the first moth
made its appearance, but, as this was
seldom or never done because OF the
changefulneSS of our climate, many have
been the bitter disappointment upon
bringing out winter flrs and clothing upon
the approach of cold weather.
Considered from physical standpoint,
If is dangerous thing to put away your
winter wraps too early, and from finan-
cial standpoint il is dangerous thing not
TO get them away early enough.
Red Cedar Flakes, the modern scienti-
fic combination OF the best known moth
preventives, today makes it possible for
one TO take the proper care of their winter
wraps and know that they will be in prop
er condition when wanted.
Red CEDAR Flakes nave none OF the dis
advantages OF the old cedar chest and
have more than all OF its good points, be-
cause this preparation is manufactured
from Red Cedar sawdust in combination
with those things that have proven TO be
good moth preventives. They are far
superior TO any other preventive in that,
instead of the goods being merely sur
rounded with Red Cedar wood, the Red
Cedar Flakes may be distributed through
out the garments and thus gwen absolute
protection. They have an agreeable, re-
freshing odor of Red Cedar, which is east
ly removed from the goods by hanging
them for an hour or two in the open air.
They are clearly, effective and conven-
lent. Put up and sold in packages at lOc
each. Remnants Pharmacy.

Enjoyable Reception.

Mrs. Josephine Hodges gave an enjoya-
bic reception at her home in Shepherds
town last night, when many friends gath
cred to extend fluctuations to Mr.. and
MrS. Samuel J. Hodges, who had just re-
turned from their weddingtrip. The hap
by bride and groom received their guests
in the large parlors, and were afterward
uShered into the dining-room, where de-
licious supper was served by handsome
matrons and pretty girls. In an upper
room part OF the bridal presents were
displayed, and were greatly admired.
Among the gifts were beautiful silver
tea set, and much other silver, lovely cut
glass, ornaments, fine linen, large and
handsome eiectrolier, and many other
useful and attractive presents. A very
pleasant evening was spent by the guests.
Our people generally will be greatly
pleased to welcome to our community so
charming young woman as Mrs. Hold
ges. The newly-married couple will
shortly move into the dwelling on Church
street formerly occupied by James NJ.
Myers.

"perusy" Buys the N. & w.

The great Pennsylvania Railroad COM
pany has bought a controlling interest in
the Norfolk & Western Railway. Last
week it purchased from the firm of Kuhn,
Loeb & Co., OF New YORK, $l6,000,0O OF
n. 6 W. stock, and this big block, added
to what it already OWNS, gives the Penn
sylvania practical majority and complete
control of this system. II is said that the
Pennsylvania buys the n. G W. in order
to fully meet the competition of the Viz
gina Railway, the great new line built
through Virginian and West Virginia from
Charleston to Norfolk by H. H. Rogers.
This road, which has just been completed,
will touch about million acres of coal
and timber lands, and is expected TO be-
come a very important factor in the coal
business Of this country.
The control OF the n. & w. by the
Pennsylvania Railroad will be no diSad-
vantage to this section. On the contrary,
if the Peunsy shall assume direct control
of the N. & W., it will be great benefit,
for the former is admittedly the best man.

A Five-Mi.e Race.

A Five-Mi!e Race.
Shepherdstown had a Marathon race
on Tuesday. Three contestants, namely,
Webster Price, representing St. James
College, William Hines, of Shepherd
College, and Col. Thompson, represent
ing the Martinsburg Y. IA. c. A., made a
five-mie run for a silver loving cup.
They made the start from KearneySville,
and two OF them ran the entire distance
to ShephcrdStown without stop, running
up the numerous hills as well as down.
AT the start at KearneySville Price took
the lead, closely followed by Hines, while
Thompson was LETT in the rear. This
order OF the procession was kept up all
the way to town Although Thompson
made a plucky run, he was outclaSSed,
and finally gave up, making the llnal
stage of the run in one OF the automo-
bies. Price and Hines kept close to-
gether to the very finish. A large crowd
of spectators was waiting for them at the
end OF the race in front OF the Register
building, and when they made their APP
pearance at the top of the hill, two
squares away, shout went up. Both
TURNER'S came down the hill at a brisk
pace, but it was seen that they were
about spent. Price had lead of some
twenty feet, which Hines was TOO tagged
to close up, and the former crossed the
line first and won the cup. 1t was a
breaking effort for both, but they
soon recovered and got apparently all
right. The time for the five miles YVES
81 ID minutes very good record con-
sidering the many hills they had to Climb.
II is said that they made the first mile in
four minutes and the second in five. Price
earned the cup fairly and was congratu-
lated heartily, though many were sorry
that Hines could not bring the honor to
Shepherd College.
This morning Adam Link ran from Duf-
fields, distance of five miles, in % min
utes and 10 seconds. Pretty fast running.
