Extensive Improvements are being
made at the grounds Of the Rumseyan

under w. S. Martin has cleared the park
of weeds and thickets, trimmed up the
trees and cleaned out the underbrush,
graded the rough places. mended the
roadway and put the property in good
order generally. II looks very nice now,
and each evening finds many visitors
lat the monument. More stone wall
will also be built, and in the fall 1t is
proposed to set out trees and foliage
and adorn the grounds by a scheme of
flower and shrubbery planting. The
work is being done at the direction Of

An OId-Timer.

Shepherdstown had a visit this week
from a real "old-tmer, "Uncle" Daniel
Hodge, colored, of Carlisle, Pa.
Uncle Dan. who says he is 80 years
and 7 months of age, left here fifty
five years ago, and naturally he was a
bit bewildered when he came up Main
street There was no railroad here
then, and he was duly impressed with
our handsome passenger station. The
Register building also puzzled him, for
he expected to still see the old bark
house and the lanyard which formerlv
occupied this site. AS he gazed into
the pretty corner Of the college campus
on Main street he inquired about
Busey's mill that formerly stood there,
and he noted many other - changes as
he ambled along. Uncle Dan is one
of the old-time colored men who main
tains characteristic dignity, and though
there are mighty few Of his old ac-
quaintances left here, he is enjoying
his visit TO his former home. His
brother, Peter Hodge. who was a bar
Der and famous character here a
half century ago, died a few years
since in Carlisle. where he had lived
for a long time.

Crooked Work in Martinsburg.

The MartinSburg Evening Journal
OF Friday last prints the following
interesting story:
If information lodged with tho
sheriff of Berkely county this morn
ing develops inTo actualities, Martins
burg can expect one of its most sem
sational exposures, and there will be
a shaking UP in the officialry of the
city and county. Charges were made
that local and county officers held up
and blackmailed two Jews from Phila-
delphia who were running" a load of
whiSkey to this section for a Brooklyn
liquor syndicate, and eXtorted about
Sl3O from the men. The Phila-
delphians, who are said to have been
allowed to keep $40 for return ex-
penses, are understood to have re-
lated story of their "wrongs" to
Martinsburg men Of the same race.
in the investigation.
The PhiladelphianS, with ten cases
of whiskey in their automobile or
truck, are said to have stopped at the
rendezvous on North Queen street to
transfer the booze to the automobile
of local taxi driver, whose name was
also given to Sheriff Dean. The af-
fair took place in the Silly hours Of
the night, not many days ago, and evil
IDENTIFY was the usual procedure,
Whether the accused officers knew
that the booze would be brought in
or Just happened to be at the place
was not stated, but they are said to
have demanded the mems money.
1t also is stated, but this accusa-
ton could not be verified, that while
the argument over the illicit liquor
was in progress the Martinsburg taxi
driver, who had swiftly transferred
the liquor to his car, cranked up, step
ped on the "gas" and disappeared in
the distance, while the booze runners
bemoaned their bad luck, one of them
franticaly exclaiming:
81 brought the booze in; seize il
and arrest me, but don't let that man
steal it,"
1t is an open secret that whiskey
runners frequently transfer their wares
at various secluded points on North
| Queen street, but the local officers
seem unable to effect a capture.
Another version of the alleged hold
up says the officers compelled the Wis
itors to leave the city in hurry, leav-
ing their contraband behind them. Tho
visitors, so the story goes, determined
to get their booze back at anv cost
and later went to the office OF District
Attorney Walker and declared they were
ready to stand consequences in
volyed under the federal law in carry
ing liquor, but were determined to get
their booze back; and insisted that the
federal Office move to recover for
them. Inquiry at the federal Office this
morning. however, said no officia! re-
port had been made to the Office and
no action had, consequently, been ia
ken.
It's dollars to doughnuts that moth
ing will come of the matter Tho
danger is too great that men "higher
UP" would be involved, and So the
affair will be hushed up one way or
another.
