preme Court of Appeals, the five in
surance companies including the Citi-
zens Fire Insurance Company. former
ly of this place. that were sued by B.
j. Miles, Executor of A, r. Miles,
trading as A. r. Miles & Son. on five
policies of insurance amounting to
$4,000 settled with the Plaintiff by pay
ing $4,000 and all the costs incurred in
the Circuit and Supreme Courts. The
suits arose out of the fire that Destroy
ed the store of A. R. Miles, since de-
ceased, in Harpers Ferry, in December
1914. The insurance companies first
defended of the suits on the ground
that A. r. Miles & Son, were partners.
The trial on the merits of the case last
ed several days before jury. The de-
tense interposed was that because Mr..
Miles had not kept an itemized list OF
his cash sales, showing each article,

tention and directed a verdict to be
found for the insurance company and

Court of Appeals granted writ OF
error and the care would have been
heard on April rs The Insurance Com
panies made no offer to pay anything

A Beautiful Place For Beautiful Things.
Winchester Starr

If you homage pay into beauty
You surely all will agree
That it now has a fitting temple,
Where nothing but beauty you'll see.
There is flashing of silver and crystal,
When the bright lights over them
CLEAN,
And gems with the hues that simmer
Like the visions we see in dream.
A pretty costume adds to the charm
of pretty woman, and an artistic set
ting to the lustre of diamond: beauty
well placed is the beauty that charms.
The beautifully renovated rooms where
Mr.. Robert Denny is again established
make lovely setting for the splendid
array of goods that make up the stock
of a first class jewellery establishment.
A rather dingy ill lighted room has
been transformer into a dream of
beauty; hard wood flowers, ornamental
metal ceilings and plate glass cases
that rest on polished mahogany. The
oval center cases are very beautiful.
There are mirrors that reflect the rain
bow hues of the jewels, and cosey seats
from which they may be inspected.
The great steel safe, weighing 5000
pounds, has the mahogany finish that
makes of it handsome piece of
furniture. The room and it's contents
harmonic with each other, and the
soft rays shaded lights bring out the
beauties of both. There is a splendid
display of solid silver sets, and so
many things made in beautiful filagree
work that it is so dear to the heart of
a woman, and adds so much to the
beauty of her table. The cut glass
CLEANS as if fashioned from crystal,
and part from the fine display of
precious stones, there are thousand
and one pretty things that all women
love and men admire. Many pleasant
things are likely to happen in this room
Young lovers will come here to look
over engagement rings, and take
anxious thought about the loving
words to be craven there. Choosing
the wedding ring will have more
solemnity about it. 1t carries a life
long pledge with it. One may be sure
that many little side-shows of senti-
ment and romance will be enacted in
this room that may be called the
Tiffany of Winchester.
So when you want some silver,
Or a wedding ring. you know,
Just go to Robert Denny's
And see the splendid show:
You'll find things of use and beauty,
That will make your heart rejoice,
And from so much that's lovely,
You can surely make choice.

Jefferson County is justly proud of
the 1922 majority given Hon. Samuel
V. Woods last Tuesday. Everybody put
t. r shoulder to the wheel without
hitch and brought the voters out. 1t is
to be regretted that the normal Republi-
can majority in the District of 1000
was not wiped out all together, but our
friends in the other side have no great
victory to rejoice over.

From HaTDeT'S Ferry.

The lilacs are here and the softness
of early summer is felt in the breath of
May. They are white, purple and law
ender in color. They are the sweet
spirits of the opening May. The pass
ing auto mobiles are decorated with the
dog wood blossoms white as snow.
Mothers Day Sunday the IA will be
observed here in some of the Churches.
In 1914 Congress and President Wilson
set aside the Second Sunday in May for
the purpose.
Benz. Lee Chambers came up from
Washington, d. c., to cast his vote in
the election for the new Representative
S. V. Wood. He ate his dinner with
his mother and sisters and went back
at p. m. to work for Uncle Sam.
Miss Jesse Cockerel is the capable
clerk in the Harper's Ferry Postoffice.

fectly preserved ever since the canal

submerged so not subject to decay the
scenic view of the old water way from
Bolivar Heights where the boots play
hide and seek with the foliage shutting
them in can't be duplicated. We will
miss Dixie and Yankee Doodle from
the boatman's horn as navigation can
not be resumed for some time.
