General Darke's Memory HOnOred.

Last Thursday patriotic celebration
was observed at Shenandoah Junction
when the graves of General Darke and
his son had marble monuments placed
over them. All of Shenandoah Junction,
some 500 strong, participated, together
with the Shepherd College Cadets, Cap
tain Dodd commanding, and the Patriotic
Order Sons of America, in full regalia,
marshaled by James w. McGany. The
procession marched from the Junction to
the old Engle graveyard, where the he
roeS lie buried, and appropriate ceremon-
les were observed. Rev. J. c. Siler Of
fered prayer, choir sang America, " and
DR.. w. w. Brown, in short but eloquent
speech introduced Prof. Henry Wirgman,
principal OF the public school, who made
the most interesting and instructive ad-
dress We have heard for years. The
choir sang Columbia, while the cadets
built camp fire, much needed. County
Superintendent OF Schools E. D. Turner
made short talk, and Miss Ida Engle
Ronemous pulled aside the curtains that
veiled the marble tombStoneS presented
by the War Department for the graves OF
General William Darke and Captain JOS
eph Darke, his son, killed in the battle Of
ST. Glars defeat on the Maumee river in
1871 by the Indians. Marshall McGarry
waved aloft the sword worn by General
Darke in the Revolutionary and Indian
wars, now owned by his great-grandson,
H. Briscoe, aged q, who was present.
Miss Daisy Engle and her sisters, OF
Charles Town, spread rare flowers over
the graves of General Darke and his Sis
ter, Mary Darke Engle, the soldiers fired
two voIleys over the graves, and all sang
"The Star-Spangled Banner"
The procession then marched back TO
the town hall and listened TO an able ad-
dress by State Organizer Alexander on
the aims of the Patriotic Sons Of America.
Dinner was served by the Patriotics Sons
and ice cream and other refreshments sold
for the order
A new fence has lately been built by
Joseph E. Engle and James NJ. EngIe
about the grounds, so this historic spot is
now in good shape for the next so years
and will be kept in order.
Prof. Wirgman and his school voted to
spend arbor day in Cleaningup this Gods
acre, for which he has the thanks OF the
neighborhood.

Meeting of the Town Council.

The regular meeting OF the town coun-
Gil held last Monday evening was an in
teresting one. Two applications for Ii
cenSe to sell liquor were presented, one
from ]. P. Watkins and the other from
F. L. Hamilton, the former to keep bar
in the Entler Hotel corner room and the
latter in the Chapline building, next TO
the Register building. Recorder J. D..
Billmyer started the ball rolling by offer
ing a motion that the license fee be in
creased from 5000 TO $1,000. This mo-
ton failed, because no one would give ii
a second When the petition OF Mr.
Watkins was taken up, Mr.. Billmyer OBJ
| ieCted, on the ground that the applicant
was not a fit person, under the law, TO
conduct a saloon. He read the law on
the subject, also the oath of the council
men and urgently opposed granting the
recomm endation to Mr.. Watkins. The
recommendation was g.anted, however,
the recorder casting the only vote against
if.
When Mr.. Hamilton's application was
considered, Mr.. Billmyer again objected.
II had been whispered for some time that
this firm, which formerly conducteda Sa-
loon here, would not again be licensed,
and when vote was taken the application
was turned down, only two councilmen,
MeSSrs. Spohn and Shell, voting for ii.
Lester Athey applied for license TO
conduct pool-room and restaurant in
the Hartzell building on Princess street.
The application was rejected and the
sergeant was instructed 10 close the place
at once. The council on Tuesday, how
ever, decided to grant license to con-
duct pool-room, but refused TO license
a restaurant in connection with it. Mr..
Athey has been selling soft drinks the
past year, including "near beer" and
there has been much objection to his
place on this account.
The council conducted its regular rou-
tine business. The matter OF improving
the lighting of German street near the rail-
road station was discussed, and this matter
will be taken up with the electric light
company. The street committee report
ed its recommendation concerning the
making of new crossings and the requir-
ing OF certain new pavementS, and the
report was adopted. After passing a
number OF bills, council adjourned.

We All Want Waterworks.

A sentiment in favor of the installation
of system of waterworks for Shepherds
town that has been slowly crystallizing
for some months past is now becoming
so pronounced that we have every hope
that in the near future active measures
will be inaugurated for this most desirable
Improvement. II is conceded that Shep-
herdstown is one of the most desirable
places OF residence in the Shenandoah
Valley, its beautiful surroundings, its
hospitable people and its many natural
advantages making ita peculiarly attractive
spot. The one thing lacking is plenty OF
pure water available for everybody who
may wish it.
There are scores of springs OF sparkling
water in and about the town, and the I'M
DERIVING limestone rock has only to be
pierced to yield bountiful supplies; but
while we have such an abundance in ma
lures reservoirs all about US, the old
fashioned method of 'totiDg" il by buck
cts is no longer popular what we want
is to have it piped into our dwellings for
use in abundance and to have an ample
and immediate supply for fire protection.
Our people, we believe, are now ready
to take up the question and push the
project through.
Some weeks ago gentleman who has
had some experience in the establishment
of waterworks expressed to us the opin-
ion that system could be inaugurated
here at moderate expense, and he prom
ised to look into the matter and make a
report to those who might be interested.
Other persons have also been inquiring
into the project, and data will doubtless
soon be forthcoming for the information
OF the people.
We hope our town authorities will take
up the question and investigate the cost
and feasibility OF the enterprise. We are
sure that they will be supported by pub
lie sentiment.

Village Improvement Society

The Village Improvement Society OF
Shepherdstown, which has not been &C
tive for several years, was reorganized
last Friday at meeting held in the town
hall. There was good attendance OF
those interested, and much enthusiasm
was shown in the proposition to revive
the work of the society. Officers were
elected as follows: President, Henry w.
Potts; president, Mrs. r. D. Shep-
herd; secretary, Robert Gibson; treas
urer, Harrison Schley. twas announced
BY one of the ladies that modest sum in
gold was available as prize for the most
attractive flower garden or yard, and
when the details are made known, ii IS
hoped that there will be competition
that will result in much floral beauty.
1t was resolved TO strive for a compre-
hensive plan for the improvement OF
Shepherdstown, in which each Household
der shall have part, and committee IS
to be appointed TO secure the services OF
an expert in this sort of work. Another
suggestion which met with much favor
was proposition to work for a public
building which shall be known as a sort
of civic centre for ShepherdStown-a IL
brary and town hall and meeting-place
combined, with such additional features
as may be for the public convenience and
benefit. A committee is also to be ap-
pointed to work out plans for this pro-
iect, and it is believed that important
steps may soon be undertaken, looking to
this end. Other affairs in the line oftown
improvement were discussed, and the
sentiment was enthusiastically favorable
to activity in this direction.
Another meeting is to be held in the
town hall on Friday afternoon OF this
week at 4 o'clock. All who can possibly
do so are urged to attend and identity
themselves with the society-men, wom-
en- and children.

Watch. Out for the Comet.

Sweeping and swirling through the at
mosphere at the rate of 100000 miles a
day and driving in this direction at rate
so great that should ii hit the earth we
would go up like puff of smoke in less
time than il takes to snuff candle, Hal
ley's Justly celebrated comet is due to ap-
pear in the eastern sky half an hour be-
fore sunrise on Friday morning, or to be
exact, at 3.5l a. m.
The comets head is 100000 miles
through. 1t has tail OF the astounding
length of l53, 100000 miles, and the ire
mendous energy that animates the thing
may be computed when you figure what
strength is needed to wag an appendage
of this sort.
