n. N. BARNES DEAD.

The death Of Mr.. N. N. Barnes at
the Charles Town Hospital last Tues
day afternoon, following an opera
ton for appendicitis the day pre-
ceding has caused widespread sorrow
at Middleway, and in the vicinity
where he was a highly esteemed resi-
dent his entire life of So years.
Mr.. Barnes was a blacksmith by oe-
cupation and a man of upright
character, holding the esteem of a
wide circle of friends.
At intervals for two years or more
he suffered from attacks of illness,
but none of the attacks kept him
from his work very long at a time.
The malady that afflicted him, how
ever, had made such progress at the
time he was taken to the hospital
that nothing effective could be done
to save his life. Surviving are his
widow who was Miss Annie Isler be-
fore marriage, and family of seven
sons and three daughters. Three of
the sons, Nathan, Jr., Shirley and
Francis live in Danville, Illinois;
Terrence in Oklahoma; Eldridge,
William and Joseph in Middleway.
OF the three daughters, two, Mrs.
Joseph Markle and Mrs. Ernest
Wynn, live in Danville, Illinois, and
one Mrs. James Triggs, resides near
Berkeley county.
Other members of his family iiv-
ing are four sisters, Mrs. NJ F. Wig
ginton, and Misses Lizzie and Nettie
Barnes, of Middleway, and Mrs.
Thomas Janney, Ransom, and two
brothers, Messrs. John Barnes, of
Illinois, and Walter Barnes,
Of Middleway.

still heavy contributors of students,
Kanawha, Ohio and other distant
counties likewise have large repre-
sentation. The enrolment to date
is practically $50 greater than at
the same time last year. with indica-
lions that the end of the semester
will see the 1900 mark reached.
The enrolment from Jefferson
county follows:-Je sse R. Engle
Shenandoah Junction; Henry l.
Griffith, Harper's Ferry; Mary J.
Hoffmaster, Millville; George T
Knode, Reed F. Myers, Harry L
Snyder, Shepherdstown; Wilbur A

the agreement to bargain was

should have begun action looking
to resumption of work on April 1.
If some outside nation had delt a
blow one-tenth as important to
our people he would have declared
war and we would have been fight
ing for the last three months.
But coal operators were not
anxious to resume production.
Why sell coal at normal prices,
reason these hard-headed business
men, when a coal famine which we
can thus produce will give us
famine prices? And a dragged
out strike enables us to keep the
miners on union relief instead Of
on our payrolls. So the strike has
been dragged out while Harding,
our chief executive, has been talk

He has listened quietly to the

Two-thirds of the wheat,
nearly all the corn, most of the rye
