Fine Entertainment Friday Night.

The Evening With Shakespeare" IN
ShepherdstoWn on Friday night OF this

entertainment OF the year. AS heretofore
announced, the celebrated artists, Mr.
and Mrs. K. d. Shepherd, will give their

among which are selections from "As
You Like It," "Merchant Of Venice, "
"Iulius Caesar" Macbeth" "Hamlet," "
Romeo and Juliet" and The Tanning
of the ShreW." Mr.. and Mrs. Shepherd
have national regulations as ShakeSperean
performers, and they should attract very
large audience. For between acts an
attractive musical programme has been
arranged, including songs and piano
number by our best local musicians.
The proceeds are for a very good cause

performers tender their services free OF
charge, il is hoped that handsome sum
will be realized. After the performance
on the stage an informal reception will be
held and supper will be served Tor the
nominal sum OF fifteen cents. On this
occasion there will also be a "ShoWer"
for the benefit OF the Charles Town Hos
pital, when articles useful in that inStltu-
ton may be given.
The price OF admission is 30 cents, re-
served seats Is cents and students tickets
Is cents. Tickets are now on sale at
GibSon's drug store. The patronage OF
the public is earnestly solicited.

Poor Service.

Poor Service.
The unsatisfactory electric light and
power service OF the past few weeks has
caused good deal OF annoyance IN Shep-
herdstown. The current has been going
of and on in the most cratic manner and
linemen have been cutting off the power
without taking the slightest trouble to
notify consumers. Last Thursday after
noon when part OF the edition OF the
Register had been printed the current was
shut off without notice and came on no
more until nearly dark. Asa consequence,
nearly all OF our edition missed the reg
ular mail. Inquiries at Dam No. 4 and al
headquarters in Martinsburg brought no
satisfaction, and the Register and every
other user OF power had to wait the slow
pleasure OF workmen somewhere along
the line. There's mighty poor manage
ment somewhere.
