County Estimates For .le11.

The Jefferson County Commissioners
were in session Tuesday and Wednesday,
estimating what are to be the county's
expenses for the next year. 1t was est
mated that to raise money enough for
county purposes levy of 80 cents on
each hundred dollars OF valuation would
be sufficient. The state tax already fixed
by law is 2l-2cents. For road purposes,
if was estimated that levy of II l-2
cents in Charles Town District; 10 cents
in Kabletown District; II IL cents in
Middleway; 10 2-3 cents in Shepherds
town and II l-2 cents in Harper's Ferry
District would meet public needs.
The new automobile law came in for
large share OF the commissioners at
tention. Prosecuting Attorney Moore
urged strict enforcement, whereupon
County Roads Engineer Hendricks was
ordered to take whatever steps that were
necessary TO comply with the law. Sign
boards 10 indicate speed limits will be
erected in many places along the public
roads. A stop watch will be purchased
for the use of county officials in deter
mining the speed Of motor vehicles on
the roads.
County Engineer Hendricks was au-
thorized to continue TO improve Main
street il Charles Town, the town and
county authorities having entered into an
agreement that the cost OF maintaining
that street is to be borne by the party
that loses in the injunction suit now pend
ing in the Circuit Court TO determine
whether such costs are to be paid by the
corporation of Charles Town or the
County of Jefferson. The current ex-
penSe OF maintenance has been limited
by an order OF the County Court TO $500.
Court adjourned on Wednesday until
August p, when the levies for the year
will be made.

Fred E. Linneberger, OF Winchester,
and Dave Tyson, along the mountain
back of Gerardstown, were arrested
Sunday at Ridgeway by Constable W. H.
Wright, OF Darkesville, on the double
charge of selling spurious liquors at are
ligious gathering and selling the same
without State license. The two fellows
were taken to Martinsburg in the afternoon
and taken to the Office Of Justice J. D.
Smith. In default of 500 bail each they
were put in jail, pending hearing We'd
nesday evening, before Justice Smith.
Both Linneberger and Tyson had lot oil
pink bottles OF whiskey wrapped up in
paper at the campmeeting Up at Ridgeway

shepherdstown to Have Sewer.

The town council met on Monday night
in regular session and after routine bust
ness the report of the Mayor was heard
on the question of sewers. A week OF
two ago we published an offer which the
State Board of Control made in regard to
sewer system for the town. The board
realizing the necessity of such a system
for Shepherd College made the PROPOSE
ton to the town that the State would
give $1,000 if the corporation would bear
the remaining expense OF installation Oh
a pipe line to the river. The council
acted wisely and voted to accept the OF
fer and recommended that an lS-inch
sewer be laid from the corner OF Princess
and High streets TO the river. Mayor
Martin very literally offered to superln-
tend the work without charge, so that
the cost to the town will be made as small
as possible.
We feel that this will indeed be a great
improvement to Shepherdstown and the
importance OF a sewer system must not
be overlooked. This is step forward
and when the town gets water-works il
it will be still more appreciated. 1t is
hoped that the Board of Control will
agree to the prososition Immediately and
that the work will be finished before the
winter sets in.
The electric light bill of$9. 81 was or
dered paid and the concil adjourned to
meet on Tuesday, August 22d, when they
will fix the levy for the collection OF tax
es for the ensuing year.

Agricultural Train a Success.

Completing trip through the eastern
Pan Handle of West Virginia the educa-
tional train operated jointly by the B. &
o. R. r. and Department of Agriculture
of the State University last week to
preach the doctrine OF scientific horticul-
trire and agriculture, made the last stop
on its schedule at Charles Town last Fri
day afternoon. The morning stop Friday
was made at Kearneysville, following
which the special went to Charles Town.
The educational train was revelation in
the completeness of its equipment, the
feature of the lectures was the discussion
of Horticulture, subject OF vital interest
TO West Virginians in this section OF the
state. H. Baird, the Georgia peach
king, who has accompanied this train
since it left Keyser Tuesday morning
aroused great interest in peach growing,
due to the thoroughness of his lectures.
Mr.. Baird's packers from the Georgia or
chard demonstrated the method OF pre-
pairing fruit for market. The crates in
which the peaches were packed were
made in the baggage car of the special.
Mr.. Baird has been fayorably Impressed
with what he has seen of the West Viz
ginia orchards on his trip last week and
he is firmly of the opinion that just as
much fruit can be produced in West Viz
gin as in any state of the northwest. The
B. & o. R. R. was represented on the
trip by w. w. Wood, general industrial
agent, who was in charge OF the train.
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad will OPP
crate an educational train in Central Ohio
during the week OF August Fl.

selling off to practically the low point of

that the south was offer NJ freely in
Liverpool and continued favorable weather
seemed to encourage beari~h sentiment,
but there was enough demand on the
early break to check the decline and
prices later in the morning fiuctuated ir-
regularly. and some OF / points up from
the lowest.
The western belt forecast for colder
weather was followed by a rally of i or
u points from the lowest But local read
ers of the weather map thought there was
little danger OF frost, southern selling be
came little heavier on the advance and
the market broke into new low ground
