Another Barn Burned.

The new barn on the farm OF Mrs. Viz
ginia Harrison, OF Shepherdstown, ten
anted by Joseph Strider, in Berkeley
county, near Swan Pond, was entirely
destroyed by fire last Monday afternoon
between three and four o'clock. Aheavy
storm had gathered and Mr.. Strider, who
had been working in the hay field, went
to the house to wait till i should pass
over. A vivid flash OF lightning was fol-
lowed by loud clap of thunder, and Mr..
Strider said he heard sound as il the
tin roof of the barn had been struck. He
looked out and saw smoke coming from
the barn, and running to it found that it
was afire. There were six horses in the
barn, and the first thought was to rescue
these. This was done with some diff
Guilty, as the stable was filled with smoke
and the horses were hard to manage. All
were gotten out, however, though by this
time the structure was beginning to blaze
fiercely. Neighbors quickly gathered,
and by lively work with buckets succeed
ed in saving the sheds near by. The
barn was entirely destroyed, together
with its contents, including the wheat
crop, some 800 bushels, Is or 80 tons OF
hay, farm implements, harness, etc.
The loss is several thousand dollars.
Mrs. Harrison had $1,000 insurance on
the barn, and Mr.. Strider 81 600 on the
live stock and implements. There was
no insurance, however, on the wheat and
hay, and these two crops are total loss.
The barn was a new one, having been
finished only couple Of weeks before it
was destroyed.
During the same storm lightning struck
the barn of Thornton Poole, in the same
vicinity, and though it knocked big hole
in the slate root, if did not set the Struc-
ture afire. The bolt killed five out OF
seven hogs that were In the stable.

Berkeley County Is Still DRY.

The County Court of Berkeley county
last Thursday rejected all applications
for license for liquor saloons in Martins
burg, and so the county will continue to
be dry for some time to come. Those
who applied for license for saloons were
Thos. w. Martin. proprietor of the Hotel
Berkeley, c. H. Bowers, Schleuss & Tim
mons, A. B. Stewart, John P. Heating,
VanMetre & Sprinkle, w. Scott Little and
two wholesale beer establishments.
When the matter came up in the court,
petitions against the granting of license
were presented by Attorney A. c. Naden-
bousch, representing the w. c. T. u,
the Civic League ard the temperance
people of the community, many of whom
were present. Stuart w. Walker appear
ed as counsel for the whiskey people.
The court had evidently considered the
matter to its satisfaction, for after brief
statements had been made by The attorneys
the commissioners retired for consulta-
ton. In short time vote was taken,
D. P. Lemaster and Thomas Kearns vot-
ing against license and Charles Thatcher
voting for license. The decision was
thereupon announced.
Mr.. Walker stated that the matter would
be taken to the Supreme Court OF APP
peals of West Virginia. He contended
that the County Court was bound to IS
sue the license when recommended by
the city council, under the charter of
Martinsburg. Counsel for the temper
ance people made no statement as to the
law, preferring TO reserve their ammuni-
ton until the matter should come before
a higher court.

Getting Too Swift.


There has been a good deal Of COM
plant in regard to the action OF certain
drivers OF automobiles who race through
our streets at unlawful speed, epdanger-
ing the lives of the people, and who
make day and night discordant with In
fernal noises from unmuffled cut-outs and
other devices. Our town officials are
not desirous of making trouble, but they
feel that they will have to make severe
examples of some of these offenders.
The people will back them up if they
punish those who have so little regard
for the comfort or the lives of our citi-
zens.
Complaints against reckless driving
took definite form on Monday, when
Davis Humrickhouse, employed at one
OF our local garages, was arrested for
exceeding the speed limit. He was tried
before Mayor Martin, who found him
guilty and placed upon him fine OF slO
and costs. Young Humrickhouse has
been regarded as one of the chief Often
