Memorial Day Exercises.

The Confederate memorial day exer-
ciseS last Saturday had to be conduct
ed in the community hall, as the show
ers OF rain prevented the usual assem-
blage at the cemetery. Despite the
unfavorable weather, however, there was
large audience present to enjoy the
occasion. John H. Schoppert presid-
ed at the meeting, and excellent music
was furnished by quartette composed
Of Mrs. Frank Dobbins, Mrs. G. F.
Daniels, Dr. G. r. Beddow and Vim. B.
Snyder. The address was delivered BY
Hon. II. M. Calhoun, Of Franklin, w.
Va, who kept the audience interested
from start to finish. He is genuine.
Southerner. and his remarks were
heartily applauded by the thin gray
line Of Confederate veterans that ocA
cupied the front row. Mr.. Calhoun's
speech contained historic references Of
unique sort and his suggestions were
highly interesting He made a real
hit with his audience, which applaud
ed him frequently, though his refer
ence to the futility Of the 18th amendS
ment was not responded to favorably.
He is very attractive speaker, even
il all Of his hearers did not agree with
him. Daughters and Sons went to the
cemetery and strewed the soldiers
graves with flowers.
A very enjoyable feature Of the day
was the presence Of the drum corps
from Martinsburg under the direction
of DR.. ]. II. Oliver. Some twenty-five
or thirty bright lads in beautiful uni
forms made appropriate music with
their drums and bugles, and they pre-
scented an inspiring sight as they
marched about the streets.

Takes Her Own Life.

Mrs. Mamie Kenney Chenowith, wild
ow Of the late A. Hunter Chenowith,
OF Arden, took her own life some time
before noon on Friday, in the attic OF
her home, by hanging. Her lifeless
body was discovered by her aged moth
er, who began search for her when
she failed TO notice her about the house
after she had prepared the MONDAY
meal. Mrs. Chenowith had mounted a
small ladder in the garrett and with
cut OF light rope had swung herself
clear by six inches from the floor The
body was lifeless when found, although
the evidence indicated that she had not
been dead long. Coroner Jacob Sites
was called, who officially pronounced
it a case OF suicide and deemed no in
quest necessary. Loss OF her husband,
A. Hunter Chenowith, after a short
illness from influenza on March 8, and
| the loss Of her father, John c. Kenney,
on April Is, who also lived at the Chen
owith home at Arden, are believed to
have weighed heavily on the spirit OF
Mrs. Chenowith and to have prompted
her act. Her aged mother and 4 farm
/ hand lived in the home at Arden, and
it was said by them that Mrs. Cheno-
with had appeared in her usual health
that morning with no indication that
she contemplated anything tragic. Her
mother, Mrs. Kenney, summoned assis-
lance from the farm when she could
not at first locate her daughter, but
later found her. Holmes Talbot and
others from Arden were called i'm
mediately and took the body down
The deceased was aged fifty-three
