Change of Administration.

The corporation election on Monday
last resulted in complete change of ad-
ministration for Shephs rdstown. Mayor
Martin and those vino have been most
intimately associated with him in the
town council decided not to be candidates
for reelection, and this left practically
clear field for Robert Gibson for mayor
and lanes S. Rightstine for recorder.
Two tickets for councilmen, both OF which
were headed by Mr. Gibson tor mayor
and Mr. Rightstine for recorder, were in
the field. A third ticket had also been
printed, with T. A. Carter for mayor and
FL. Weltzheimer for recorder, but the
candidates on this ticket had not been
consulted and they electioneered against
themselves. The election resulted in the
choice OF the following officers for the
ensuing year:
Mayor-Robert Gibson, ll9 votes.
Recorder--J. s. Rightstine, IA votes.
CounciImen-W. p. Licklider, 95 votes;
S. ]. Hodges, "a votes; J. R. Show, 81
votes; R. @. Miller, 90 votes; J. {.
Fultz, CT votes.
The election was one OF the most quiet
our town has ever known. There were
few workers about, for there was moth
ing for them to do, as the class that is
usually susceptible to election day "argu-
ment" was not on the voting list, having
failed to qualify by the payment OF poll
tax. Heretofore it has been customary
for the candidates or others interested TO
pay the poll tax for those who were too
Indifferent to do if for themSelver, but
this year II was not done. This LEFT over
a hundred floaters off the voting list.
There were but 1T votes cast on Mon
day, only tive colored men being among
this number.
The new council is composed OF rep
resentatiye citizens and business men,
and the towns affairs will be safe in their
hands. We hope that the whole COM
munity will unite in giving them the cor
dial support and cooperation that they
deserve. We trust that they will at once
get busy and 90 into the matter OF secur-
ing system of waterworks for Shep-
herdStoWn.

The Basketball Trip.

The Shepherd College basketball team
came home yesterday from their western
trip, the results of which were not so
encouraging. Five games were played,
and the home team only captured one OF
them. They lost TO Fairmont State Nor
NAL, the Clarksburg Scholastic Club,
Fairmont High School, and Wesleyan
University at Buckhannon, winning the
last game played from Buckhannon High
School. The Clarksburg and Wesleyan
teams are rivals for the State champion
ship, and our boys lost to them by large
scores, being entirely out OF their class.
The other games were close and excit-
ing, and had not the home team been on
strange floors it would have won easily
from the Fairmont teams. The team was
in charge of Prof Walter M. Duke, man.
ager, and VIM. B. Snyder went along as
umpire.
On Friday night after the game recep-
ton was given the team by the students
of the Fairmont Normal, and it was a
most enjoyable occasion. The party
spent Sunday in Morgantown, where
they were heartily welcomed by former
residents OF Shepherdstown and students
from this vicinity. In fact. every place
the team went it was treated Hospitality
and squarely, and there was not single
I'm leasant occurrence to mar the pleasure
of the trip.
On Saturday night at 100 the Penn
SYlvania State Forester's team will play
IN the college gymnasium here. This
will be the last game this year, and will
without doubt be the best game played
on the home floor this season.

Rebuilding the Waste Places.

Rebuilding the waste flaCeS.
E. H. Reinhart has commenced the
work of rebuilding his property destroy
ed by fire last November. The debris
has been removed from the ruins and part
OF the brick walls removed, the two end
walls having been allowed TO remain as
they are. A two-story building will be
constructed, with store-roomS on the first
floor. The contract for the brick work
has been awarded to Hunter B. Grim,
and the carpenter work will be done by
|. l.. Sheetz and |. n Walters. S. P.
Humrickhouse, Jr., will superintend the
construction. While removing part Of
wall brick was found bearing the date
1898. This indicates that the burned
building was lis years old. Some per-
sons have thought il was even Older than
this
The ruins on the Loyns lot, bought by
Col. |. V. Johnson, have also been clean
ed up, and building operations will soon
be commenced, although Col. Johnson
has not yet matured plans.

untimely death. Mrs. Delaney had been
great sufferer for several years with a
growth i'll her stomach, and lately has
been very i'll, her mind having become
affected also. She has recently made
several attempts to elude the vigilance OF
those caring for her, and Tuesday night
she managed TO leave the house without
being seen. She threw herself into the
cistern on the premises, aud when search
was made for her shortly aiterward her
lifeleSS body was found in the water.
She is survived by her husband and
family of grown children. They have
the sympathy OF many friends in their
trouble.

be used in road making, and it is expected
that they will be furnished the coming
spring. Applications for convict labor
are received by the State Board OF Con-
troll, are filed in their regular order, and
as rapidly as Can be the convicts will be
distributed among the several counties

THE Democrats further take the posi-
ton that the services of all the members
of the commission are needed still, ana
they contend that to provide for Col.
doethas and summarily dismiss all other
commissioners would be an unfair dis
elimination. Generally they express admi-
ration for Col. Goethals and Senator
Smith went so far as to say that he would
favor comforting all possible military hon
ors upon him.
But to lift him alone out of the com
mission for any purpose and leave the
other commissioners out of consideration
and especially to deprive the country of
the services of the commission as what
may still be a critical time We believe to
be neither wise nor fair Mr.. Smith con-
tinued. He added his conviction that if
Col. Cocktails nomination should be sent
in it would not be confirmed at this time.
