A Valuable Publication.

We have recently received the pros
pectus of what we are sure will prove to
be very valuable publication-one OF ex-
ceeding great interest to the people OF
Shepherdstown and this section OF Viz
ginia and West Virginia, 1.-THE Geneal-
ogy of the Duke-Shepherd-V anMetre
Family" by Mr.. Samuel Gordon Smyth,
of West Conshohocken, Pa, member OF
the Historical Society of Pennsylvania
and the historical societies of Bucks and
Montgomery counties. This book is a
genealogy and history OF the related FAM
lilies of John VanMetre, Thomas Shep-
herd and John Duke, settlers between
1870 and 1850 of the Northern Neck in
the Valley of Virginia. The historical
matter in the book centerS around Shep-
herdstown, and it follows her sons and
daughters to their new homes in the
West, reciting their achievements; sowhat-
ever glory they have shed in the devel-
opment of the western country reflects
credit upon our town. 1t is due to John
VanMetre's forbears, represented by
Emmanuel Van Meteren, the famous his
torian of Holland, that Henry Hudson
was persuaded TO serve the Dutch East
India Company and thus became the ia
nous navigator and explorer who diScov-
cred the Hudson and laid the foundation OF
Dutch supremacy in the New World.
This feature ofthe book is especially time
ly in view OF the great celebration in hon.
or of Hudson and Fulton during the pres
emf month at New York, commemorate
ing the the Booth anniversary of the dis
covery of the Hudson river and the Tooth
anniversary of the first steamboat on its
waters.
The historical features of the work will
be no less important than the genealogy,
and doubtless OF more general interest tell
ing as they do, OF the hardships and ad-
ventures OF the pioneer period OF border
life. The principal part OF the book, as
the title indicates, is devoted to the Shep-
herd, Duke and VanMetre families, but
in the list of titles of chapters we note the
following: The Virgininia Grant; The
Hite Grant; Customs OF the Pioneer Per-
iod Notes on the league Family; Settle
ments in the Valley of Virginia; The
Siege of Fort Henry, and others equally
interesting. Among the thousands OF
names mentioned in the book we note
many well-known in this section, includ-
ing the following: Burns, Boyd, BriScoe,
Chapline, Engle, Glenn, Groves, Green
wood, Hendricks, Hess, Halliday, Kear-
ney, Kearfott, Lucas, Lee, Moh.er, Mich
OILS, Porter, Robinson, Unseld, Williams.
This book is!now ready for delivery,
or will be within few days. The au-
thor has printd limited edition, which will
be sold at $500, or sent by mail for So 20.
Those who desire copies can address Mr..

A PUBLIC BENEFIT.
Shepherdstown People Greatly Inter
ested in the Generous Offer of Rein
harris Pharmacy.

The people have already demonstrated
that they would rather trust man who is
naturally honest than one who is honest
only because he had tobe.
Remnants Pharmacy have firmly eS-
tablished reputation for square dealing
and sterling honesty. When they told
the people that Rexall Remedies are the
purest and most dependable medicines
that it is possible for modern science to
produce, and that they would tell the
public what each one of these 300 or more
remedies contained, and that they sold
Rexall Remedies on their personal guar
antee that they would give entire salts
faction or they would not cost the user
single cent, they were believed.
Ever since this announcement Rein
harris Pharmacy has been largely patron
lied by people buying Rexall Remedies,
all OF which proves that this store has the
confidence of the people and that honesty
is the best policy.
There is no "cure-all' among the Rex
all Remedies. There are different and
separate medicines, each one devised for
certain human ailment or class of all
ments closely allied. For instance, Rex
all Dyspepsia Tablets are recommended
for the positive relief OF stomach irrita-
ton, indigestion, flatulency and dyspep-
STA. They are rich in Bismuth- Subni-
trate, .Pepsin and Carminatives. They
are prepared by special processes which
perfect and enhance the great remedial
value of these well-known medicinal
agents. This remedy sells for 25 cents,
so cents, and $l00 per package. Every
one suffering from stomach disorder
should try Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, in
asmuch as they cost nothing if they do
not satisfy.
Remember, Remnants Pharmacy is the
only store in Shepherdstown where these
remedies may be obtained, and every one
in need of medicine is urged to investigate
and take advantage of the frank and gen.
erous manner in which they are sold.

WE should not like to be responsible,
for the views on morality expressed by
Lawyer ChaS. q. BiggS, of SharpSburg.
Mr.. Biggs wrote letter for the benefit
OF the saloon keepers, and which the lat
ter gleefully paid TO have printed in the
newspapers, in which is the following
choice gem:
prohibition, instead OF preventing, in
creaSeS drunkenness; supposed instru-
ment OF morality, it causes immortality"
What do you think of that The more
whiskey, the less immortality Here's an
other:
evil is in the world and always will be
it can't be abolished, but it can be molli-
fled. The death penalty has not de-
questionably very materially decreases
its commission"
Mr.. BiggS would mollify the evils OF in
temperance by increasing the opportuni-
ties to become incorporate. This is log
ic for you.
To-day ShepherdStown, w. Va, three
miles from Sharpsburg, is dry" Nearly
every day gang comes to SharpSburg,
buys liquor in quantities and goes home
intoxicated. The effect upon the order
of ShepherdStown may be imagined"
II doesn't require imagination to know
about the order in Shepherdstown since
our town has gone dry. The fact is, our
town is orderly and sober TO wonderful
degree, and the small amount OF liquor
bought in Sharpsburg by those unfortu-
mates who have thirst that has overcome
them makes very little disturbance here.
We suspect that it is good deal better
here than in Sharpsburg.
believing that true morality will be
subServed by high and restrictive license
and that prohibition is dream ofimprac-
ticable so-called reformerS, | sincerely
hope the prohibition measure to be voted
on next Tuesday will be defeated"

THE abuse by Speaker Cannon of the
inSurgent Republicans and those who re-
fuse TO follow his corrupt leadership is
not helping him greatly. Onthe contrary,
ii is Solidifying the opposition against him
and what he stands for, and the patriotic
men who are standing so stoutly for bet
ter statesmen and better craftsmanship
must eventually triumph. Referring to
Cannon'S attempt to read him and other
progreSsives out OF the party, Senator La
Toilette, Of Wisconsin, likenS the Cannon
wing TO the Tammany Democrats and de-
clareS that it is equally corrupt. Senator
La Toilette says that Cannon is doomed,
and adds:
ellis pronunciamentos are but the snarl-
ings of a grim old wolf who hears the
beaterS in the woods and scents them
closing in. He is still at large, but the
days of his depreciation within the sheep
folds of the people are surely numbered"

THE temperance people lost their fight
in Washington county on Tuesday, the
local option question being defeated by
about 1000 majority. They made a
splendid campaign, but the odds against
them were too heavy. A considerable
number Of persons in HagerStown place
money above morals, and these put up a
great fight for fear that directly or indi-
rectly they might suffer loss in rents or
other revenue. Several prominent citi-
zenS took this stand and worked with the
Saloon-keeperS and those who fatten on
the nefariouS traffic and others whose
moral SenSibilitieS are not well developed.
In addition, there was great deal OF po-
litcal trading done, the liquor people be-
ing regardless OF candidates just so they
kept the saloons safe Then, too, the
whiSkey advocates had the advantage
over the temperance forces in that they
had no scruples in corrupting the voters,
while the dry people, OF course, would
not engage in this practice.
We hope that the temperance people
may not be discouraged at the result Of
the election. Every battle cannot be won
Let them fight on, and eventually the
right will prevail even even in Hagers-
town.

is so strong that it will endanger the party
if he shall continue the tactics by which
he has succeeded heretofore, and they
saw that now is the time to retire from
active politics.
Cannon declines to be Side-tracked,
however, and consigns his enemies to
