Fierce Wind Storm.

One of the iiercest wind storms Of the
year passed over this section last Friday,
when the wind reached a velocity Of fifty
miles an hour. There was not so much
damage in this immediate locality, but a
good many folks were nervous, and one
old lady afterWard remarked that during
the storm she expected every minute
would be the next. A part OF the metal
roof on w. GARDENERS barn, south OF
town, was blown off. While a number
OF young men were playing baseball on
the diamond at the edge of town fierce
gust of wind blew the grand stand over.
It's only occupant was Jack Hill, a boy
from Shenandoah Junction, and he went
down in the wreck. He was most pain
fully hurt, but fortunately escaped broken
bones. He received very severe knock
on the forehead, one of his lips was cut
entirely through. and his nose was twist
ed to one side. He bled great deal,
and the boys were greatly alarmed at the
cory sight Jack was plucky, however,
and endured his injuries bravely. He
was taken 10 DR.. BurWelPS office, where
his injuries were dressed, and he was
afterWard sent home in an automobile.
Near Weverton alarge stable owned by
Thomas Hoifmaster was blown over While
Mr.. HoffmaSter and his son and horse
and COW were in it. The building was
carried away over their heads, but all es-
capped without injury.
A new barn on the farm OF A. L. White,
in the western section Of Frederick coun-
tv, Va, was blown over and demolished,
and horse that was in il was killed.

A Wise Magistrate.

Charged with obstucting an officer IN
the discharge OF his official duty, Frank
Weutzell, OF Harper's Ferry, was released
after a hearing before Justice Sheetz in
Charles Town on Wednesday. The evil
dence showed that Officer Tom E. Rodet-
fer, OF the B. & o. railroad police, had
arrested one Jim Pasek for riding freight
train and was taking his priSoneTto Engle'S,
from which place he intended bringing
him to Jail. Wentzell, who came along
about that time, told the officer that the
oifense OF tram riding didn't deserve jail
Imprisonment. An alteration enSued
and WentzelPs arrest followed. The
Justice held that it was unlawful for the
officer to arrest PaSek without a warrant
for train riding, and thereupon dismissed
the charge against Wentzell. This view
OF the legality OF such arrests for train
riding is evidently not shared by other
justices in the county, as they commit
train riders to Jail regardless OF whether
they were arrested on warrants or other
wise.-AdvOCate.
