After The Telephone Company.

The city council OF Martinsburg has
passed resolutions condemningthe Ches-
apeake and Potomac Telephone Company
for its action in making an extra charge
for service to ShepherdStown and other
points in Jefferson county where service
heretofore has beenfree. The council has
also passed an order to investigate the
franchise of the company, and will make
trouble if it does not strictly comply with
all the provisions thereof.
The Berkeley County Court has also
taken up the matter, and at session
few days ago adopted the following res
olution as an indication OF its attitude on
the subject: Resolved, by the County
Court OF Berkeley County: That we con-
denim the action of the Chesapeake and
Potomac Telephone Company for at
tempting to exact toll charge from their
subscribers to whom they agreed TO give,
and did give since the establishment OF
the line, unlimited service to and from
and between these points, and we re-
quest the said company to reinState the
former service enjoyed by their subScri-
berS at once.

The Firemen's House.

After having considered many PROPOSE
tons in regard to the finishing of it's
new home and hall, the Shepherdstown
Fire Department has concluded to 60
ahead with the construction of the build
ing and finish it as originally intended.
They have, as is well-known, finished
the expensive stone foundation and base
ment story walls, and everything has
been paid for that has been done. The
firemen have good sum left in the treas
ury, and to this they hope TO add another
thousand dollars by private subscriptions,
when they will go ahead with another
section OF the building. We hope that
our people will be generous to the fire
men and make liberal response to their
appeal for help. The firemen have other
plans for raising money, including street
carnival to be held next month and big
fair for the next holidays.

A Venerable Clock.

A venerable CI0ck.
The editor Of the Register has Just set
up among his household treasures grand
fathers clock that has an interesting his
tory. The clock was bought from Moses
Poffenberger, of Sharpsburg, who in
herited it from his grandfather, Henry
Nose. Mr.. Poffenberger remembers back
almost seventy years, and he says that
the clock was not new one then, so IT
is probably over a hundred years old.
A German inscription, giving the name
of the maker, was not decipherable.
During the battle of Antietam shell from
Federal cannon struck the house in
which the clock stood, hitting the corner
of the building in which the time-piece
was calmly ticking away the minutes OF
that fearful day. The shell did not pene-
trate the wall, glancing off into the street,
but the conclusion was sufficient to stop
the clock when the hands pointed to 10
minutes past /. II never ran afterward,
and being large and heavy article OF
furniture, was finally relegated TO the
garnet, where it lay neglected for many
years. A few weeks ago it was bought
by the editor OF the Register, and although
it was rather hopeless looking PROPOSE
ton, the eye of faith saw beauty in it
which has since been revealed. The case
was put in the hands of E. R. Hill, of this
place, for renovation, and he worked a
remarkable transformation. Adingy, bat
tered old case turns out to be very re-
markable piece OF curly walnut ofpeculiar
beauty, the grain of which is extremely
rich and attractive, and under Mr.. Hills
skilIful workmanship it has been made to
look like fine satin. John w. Harp I'M
dertook to put the clockwork in order,
and though he had a puzzling Job, he
ingeniously overcame the difficulties and
got the wheels going around as well as
they ever did. The venerable clock has
now been set up in the hall ofthe editors
home, and is ticking solemnly and striking
cheerily Just as it did half century ago.
II is stately and impressive piece OF
furniture as we'll as valuable timepiece
with interesting associations.
