A Delightful Reception.

Last Friday afternoon Mrs. Ida h. NELL
gavea reception as compliment 10 her
son, Passed Assistant PaymaSter William
Gilmore Neill, u. S. N, and his bride,
who spent a couple OF days OF their
honeymoon in Shepherdstown. A con-
siderable number Of the friends OF Pay
master Neill were present to congratulate
him and to meet his charming young wife,
who was formerly Miss Lydia Hodges
Clark, of Washington, and the occasion
was most enjoyable. Mr.. Neil has been
one of Shepherdstown's most popular
young men from his youth up, and no
one has more friends here than he; so our
people were rejoicedto meetthe very pref
ty and attractive girl who is to share with
him the vicissitudes OF navy mans life.
Mrs Nell by her sweetness and gracious
ness won her way at once into the hearts
OF her husbands friends, and il was not
long until it was apparent that she was
to be one OF the bestowed members OF
our home folks circle. Everybody who
met her was charmed with her, and Mr..
Neil was congratulated anew upon his
good fortune. We join with their friends
IN the hope that for them life may be
lone glad, sweetsong," accompanied by
the best gifts OF smiling Providence.
Paymaster Neil, who has been connected
with the U. S. S. Dolphin, at Washington,
had to leave his bride on Monday, having
been ordered to one OF the ships OF the
United States Navy that will be in active
service because OF the war with Germany.

And So They Were Married.

Mr.. Adam Baker Link, son OF Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. H. Link, OF Duffields, and
Miss Ethel Ruth Lands, daughter OF Mr..
and Mrs. S. H. Lands, OF Charles Town,
were married Wednesday night OF last
week at the Lutheran parsonage in Mar
tinsburg by Rev. Charles S. Trump.
The young couple had planned to be
married some time ago, but the arrange
ments were interfered with when Mr..
Link, who is a member OF the Second
Regiment OF the West Virginia National
Guard, was hurriedlY called TO the Mex
lean border. His regiment was disband-
ed last week and he returned to Martins
burg. When il became certain that the
regiment was again to be called into ser
vice because OF our trouble with Germany,
Sergeant Link decided TO take no chances
OF losing his sweetheart, so he got an
automobile and went to Charles Town
after her, from there going to MartinSburg,
where the knot was tied. Few persons
knew OF the wedding until il was over.
Sergeant Link is wellknown in Shep-
herdstown, having been former student
of Shepherd College For the past several
years he has been successful salesman
for Thompson & Thompson in Martins
burg. Mrs. Link is graduate OF Ran
dalph-Macon College for Women, and
for several years has been a trained
nurse in the Hebrew Hospital in Bali

Signs of Spring.

March went out like lamb-like a
spring lamb-for Saturday was an I'M
usually mild and pleasant day. Sunday,
the first OF April, was the warmest April
first on record, the thermometer getting
up 10 IS in the shade. The south wind
blew softly and the sun gave a genial
warmth that was most agreeable. Folks
sat out on their porches as though Sum-
mer had really arrived. Monday those
who had been awaiting opportunity to
make garden got busy, and early seeds
were planted generally, while all outdoor
work was pushed along Tuesday cooler
breezes Came from the north-but still
We know that spring is at hand, for the
grass is getting very green, shrubs are
budding, the early flowers are bursting
into bloom, the birds are returning from
the south, frogs are singing up the marsh,
bows and girls are strolling along the
river road, bees are buZzing after the
first blossoms, baseball bats and tennis
rackets are in evidence, butter is getting
better. little chickens are running around,
boys are begging to 60 barefoot, there's
general qulckeuing OF the blood. and
Easter Joys and the blessed hope OF i'm
mortality are ours by the teachings OF the
Good Book and the revelation of God
through the works OF nature at this resur-
rection time.

Incendiary Fires at Charles Town.

The people OF Charles Town have been
a good deal concerned about what seem
to be incendiary fires that have occurred
in that place recently. One night last
week an attempt was made TO burn the
stable OF S. S. Dalgarn, and from the cir
cumstances il seems certain that it was
the work OF an incendiary. Wednesday
night threShing machine that was shell
tered in shed on the Washington Boom,
east OF town, was destroyed by fire, as
was also the shed. Sunday about half
past ten O'Clock there was another alarm
ing fire, when the stables OF the Misses
McCurdy and Richard Frazier were burn
ed TO the ground, other property being in
serious danger. The big steam fire en-
CINE OF the Citizens Fire Company was
upset on its way to the fire, and vas
somewhat damaged. Early Monday
morning the dwelling OF Berthe
Cooke, colored. was damaged by fire,
and Monday afternoon the home OF Han
nah Paterson, colored, was almost en-
tirely destroyed
Deputy State Fire Marshal John Wal
lace has been in Charles Town investi-
eating the probable cause OF these fires,
and it said that detectives are also al
work.
