STATE POLICE OPERATING IN
THE COUNTY.

Several members of the State
Police Force tationed at Martinsburg
have been operating in Jefferson
County the past week.
Joseph F. Nally, a railroad man of
Harpers Ferry, is alleged to have
been the owner of nice sixteen-gal-
lon still, which he had neatly housed
in his home in that place, but was so
unfortunate for the State Police to
get some dope on its whereabouts
and they visited the historic town
and took possession of the apparatus.
Joe was not at home when his Wis
itors called, so all the State Police
could do was to confiscate the still
and bring it before Justice R. G. Mil
Ter, of Shepherdstown, who issued the
warrants in the case. The, police
followed up their lead and brought
Nally there for trial last Tuesday,
when he was held for the action Of
the next grand jury under bond. He
was brought to the Charles Town
Jail awaiting favorable action on his
plea for liberty. Captured with the
still were fifty gallons of prune and
cornmeal and approximately two
gallons of moonshine liquor. The
still was reported not in operation
when the visit was made, although
the mash was found in the apparatus.
1t is said that the mash was thrown
out in the yard and some hogs found
it and had so much ply that they ate
of it, resulting in them going on
grand spree.
Nally has been released on bond.

Mr.. Roger W. Babson, one of the
most noted statisticians of the age,
has the following to say which he
contends has been incontrovertibly
proven by statistics. II was brought
into the Church of Christ by the
Christin Endeavor Society, but was
really converted to the teachings of
the Bible through study of statistics.
Statistics show that the Church is the
greatest factor in the Worldly success
of men and groups of nations" The
success of individuals, the success of
communities, the success Of nations
depends on the following fundament-
als,-integrity, faith, industry, bro
therly kindness, and an interest in
the soul of man. Now-to what do
we owe these great fundamental
qualities? States clearly show that
we owe them to the religion of
Christ. Yes, and to the old-fashioned
religion of our forefathers. More
over, I say this not only as church
man, but would give the same mes
sage if l were speaking to group Of
bankers, or . group of engineers"

As the sun went down Ger the hilltops,
And the shadows stole over our heads.
So the light Of his life went out
And left us lonely and sad.
Every day brings back sweet memories,
Every memory brings tear,
Deep within our hearts we. cherish,
Thoughts of Balire we loved so dear.
Like the dove to its sheltered nest
When the storm on the hill is advanced
He has left this world of unrest
TO dwell in the house of God
