Notes of the Churches.

The ministerial association OF Shep-

BLUFFED BY THE TARIFF.
Big Price Reductions on Cloth and
WoOlenS.

II is an old adage, yet true one, THAT
il is an i'll wind that doesn't blow any
body good"
The promised tariff reductions on wool
and wooden fabrics made by the Wilson
administration has caused several cloth
houses to reduce their big stocks OF sum-
mer cloth by offering price reductions to
taiorS.
The tailor who has taken advantage OF
this offer is in position to sella fine tall
or-made suit at reduction OF s. TO 81
the suit.
This reduction only affects the present
stocks of summer fabrics.
Will the reduction TO be made in the
tariff schedule on wool and woolens affect
the manufactured products as much 7
The farmer wants tariff reform, but no
reduction on wool or farm products.
The manufacturer who wants tariff re-
form is up in arms when his products are
affected.
The laborer and the general public
want tariff reform, the tariff reduced on
everything, but doesn't want wage re-
duction, and so it goes through all lines
and trades.
II looks like Mr.. Wilson will have the
biggest job Of his life trying to please all
Yet the professor is trying to solve his
problem.
He is dutifuI, studious, and delights in
perseverance.
Let us all hope him success.
Now is the opportunity for those who
have not yet bought their summer suits
TO save S. TO ST. The John w. Dean
Co., Martinsburg, will offer this reduction
on certain lines Of cloth for the next ten
days.
See them at once 10 get your choice OF
the lot.

The Accident At Engle's.


The Register last week made brief
mention of an explosion at The quarries
of the Potomac Lime and Stone Company
at EngIe's, this county. which resulted in
the instant death OF two men. The dis
aster occurred about o'clock Tuesday
afternoon. Washington Lloyd, the fore
man at the quarries, and colored labor
er named Ernest Goetz were loading
with dynamite the drill holes for the usual
evening blast, when without warning
there was premature explosion. Just
how il occurred will never be known, as
both men were instantly killed. Hearing
the explosion. the other workmen nearby
went to the sce9a and found only bloody
fragments OF what few moments before
had been living men. Foreman Lloyd's
body had been literally blown TO pieces,
and only portion of it was found. The
body OF the colored man was almost as
badly muItiated. The fragments OF the
body were taken to Harper's Ferry and
prepared for burial. Lloyd, who lived al
Engle's, was about 40 years of age, and
leaves wife and one daughter. The
colored man was also married.

Miss WaddeIl Resigns.


Miss Lynne Waddell, who for several
wears past has been teacher in charge OF
the department OF English OF Shepherd
College State Normal School, and who
was reappointed for the ensuing year,
has sent in her resignation to the Board

manage without assistance, and she will
take years rest, not applying for an
other position. Miss Waddeil'S reSigna-
ton will be distinct loss TO the Shop

CHARM OF TuRoENEv.

"Turgenev," says William Lyon
Phelps in his essay on the novelist,
although an uncompromising real
list, was at heart always a poet. In
reading him We feel that what he
says is true; it Is life indeed; but
we also feel an ine1pressible charm.
1t is the mysterious charm of music
that makes our hearts swell and our
eyes swim. He saw life, as every
one must see it, through the medium
OF his own soul As Joseph Conrad
has said, no novelist describes the
world; he simply describes his own
world.
