Census Supervisors.
Two of the four appointments of super
visors of census for West Virginia have
been practically agreed upon, these of the
Second and Fourth districts, respectively,
as they are recognized Congressionally.
It is understood that Mr. L. C. Powell,
editor of the West Virginian at Fairmont
is the choice for the Second district, and
Mr. Thomas A. Brown, of Elizabeth,
Wirt county, for the Fourth district. The
choice in the Third Congressional district
it is said, lies between Editor J. A. Old
field, of McDowell county, and Mr. E. L.
Dunn,of Red Sulphur Springs. It cannot
be now predicted which will win nor
whether a third man is likely to be named
as a compromise.
The selection in the First district, it is
said, will not be made for several weeks
owing to the difficulty in deciding among
the aspirants.
As previously stated West Virginia
will be entitled, under the apportionment,
to four supervisors. Each of these will
receive $1,000 in compensation, and their
active duties will cover a period of less
than four months.
Hicks for nay.
May brings from the ist to the 3rd a
regular Vulcan storm period. Very warm
weather, falling barometer and rain storms
will prevail, passing from western to east
ern parts during the ist to 4th. Two or
three days of cooler weather will lead up
to change and reactionary storms on and
touching the 8th and 9th, followed by
cool nights with frosts north. From the
12th to the 15th falls another storm per
iod, calling for change to warmer, falling
barometer and numerous storms of rain,
wind and thunder. At this time of the
year all angry storm clouds should be
carefully watched. Look for cool nights
with northern frost about 14th and 16th.
The 17th and 18th are central days for
reac tionary disturbances, to be followed by
a change to cooler from 19th to 22d. A
regular storm period, intensified by Mer
cury, full moon and an approaching Venus
equinox, covering the 23d to 27th. Many
heavy storms, some of them tornadic. will
occur at this time. Watch the barometer
and the clouds.
Died at Hospital.
Mr. Louis Fine, who was taken to the
hospital of the Maryland University, at
Baltimore, on Monday, died of dropsy
and Bright’s disease at the hospital on
Tuesday night, aged 35 years. He leaves
a father and mother in Zeimal, Prussia, a
wife and four brothers: Charles, of the
firm of Fine & Snyder, this city; David, of
Waynesboro; one in Zeimal and one in
Cruch, Prussia. The remains were in
terred in the Milkroh-Kadath Synagogue
cemetery at Baltimore Thursday.
Verdict was Right.
Judge Faulkner in opening court this
morning said that he noticed mthe papers
that the case of Maggie Church vs. Albert
Martin had been dismissed upon agree
ment and that he had intended setting
aside the verdict of the jury, had not the
case been settled. Judge Faulkner said
he had not intended granting a new trial
because the verdict was not just, but be
cause both sides had more evidence to
produce. He said the verdict of the jury
was exactly as it should have been, from
the evidence which it had before it.

blue wedding took piace Wednesday

horses Frightened.
The horse of Mi;. C. W. Boyer, hitch
ed to a weight in front of the house of
Mr. G. W. Buxton Wednesday, became
frightened at Mr. Bishop’s horseless car
riage and ran off.
The hitching strap was too strong for
the horse, and he, pulling the weight
over the ground started down Maple
avenue toward Martin street and was
caught near the corner of Martin street.
The horses front legs were badly cut and
bruised by the weight striking them and
seven spokes were broken out of the left
rear wheel.
The horse of Dr. J. B. Snodgrass,
while standing in front of the drug store
of Mr. C. F. Matthad, scared at the horse
less carriage and ran off. He was caught
near the public square and no damage was
done.
The horse hitched to the Adams Ex
press wagon also scared at the carriage
while standing on the street, but was
caught before he had gone far.
■ o ue Keopenea.
The Continental, the famous old hotel
which has been closed for the past week,
will soon be re-opened again. This, Mar
tinsburgers will be glad to hear, for it is a
certain fact that the town can support
two first-class hotels. All the goods and
furniture of the hotel, owned by Mrs.
Linch, has been sold and Messrs. David
M. and Joseph H. Shaffer, the owners of
the building, will in a few days begin
work upon repairs on the building. The
entire building will be renovated and put
in condition for a first-class hotel. The
Messrs. Shaffer are now negotiating with
at least a half-dozen hotel men, who are
anxious to lease the building. The own
ers are now considering the applications
and the hotel will soon be leased. They
intend leasing it to no one but an experi
enced hotel man, one whom they know
will succeed.
The report that the ownfers would run
the hotel themselves is incorrect.
Recuperated.
Mr. Charles Brant, the superintendent
of the Savannah Carriage and Wagon
Company, of Savanah, Ga„ returned
home Thursday after spending a few
weeks here recuperating, as the guest of
Mr. Max Robinson. Mr. Brant had been
in ill health and Mr. Robinson recom
mended that he come here and breathe
the pure mountain air and drink the ex
cellent sulphur water out of the springs
at Bedington, which he did and gained
seventeen pounds during his two weeks'
sojourn here.
Mr. Brant drove to the springs every
morning and drank of the water and al
ways brought some home with him. He
returned home, Thursday in high spirits
and very much pleased with the healthful
condition of the community.

Mr. Chas. Ramsburg, family and broth
er, Mr. Pearl Ramsburg, of Winchester,
were here a few days ago attending the
funeral of their mother. Mrs. Henry
Ramsburg, of Shepherdstown, was also
here.
Grim death has again entered our
midst and taken a beloved mother. On
Tuesday, April 25. our community was
startled to its very depth by the sad tid
ings that one of our most highly-esteemed
Christian ladies, and a dearly beloved
mother, Mrs. Mary E. Ramsburg, had
gone to her last rest. She was on a visit
to Mr. Wm. Folk's, near Kearneysville,
where she was taken ill on Thursday, and
continued to grow worse. Though lov
ing hearts and willing hands, with the
best medical aid, tried to hold her back
from the grave, but to no avail. God
had called his loved one and she
obeyed his summons. She was ready to
go to be with Jesus and her loved ones
gone before, and wait with beckoning
hands for those left behind.
hnc nas crossed the mystic river,
She has stemmed the swelling tide;
But we trust in the great hereafter.
To launch our bark on the other side.
She left her family in the hands of God.
Mrs. Ramsburg was a dearly-beloved
mother, friend and associate. No one
can fill a mother’s place; the vacant chair
always occupied by mother is empty.
None knew her but to love her. Her
place in her home can never be filled, but
we have the blessed assurance that though
we cannot see her here on earth, we may
all see her in heaven. She has only gone
before. When our days on earth are
over, and we hear our call to come home,
what a blessed happy thought that moth
er will be waiting with outstretched hands
on the bank of the river to welcome gs
into the "Haven of Rest," there to be
with Jesus evermore. Her remains were
brought from Kearnevsville on Wednes
day evening to her home at Vancleves
ville, and on Thursday morning a large
concourse of friends and relatives met
to pay the last trihute of respect to their
loved one. Her casket was covered with
lloral tributes of respect from both rela
tives and friends. Her funeral was
preached by Rev. J. L. Kibler, from Matt.
24: 42. "Watch therefore, for ye know
not what hour your Lord doth come.”
He dwelt lovingly upon her Christian life
and influence, not only in her family but
with those with whom she came in con
tact. She was the w'ife of the late Geo.
W. Ramsburg, and leaves eight children
to mourn her loss. They are Messrs.
Chas. and Pearl Ramsburg, of Winches
ter; Suel, of Woodstock; Henry, Albert
and David, and Misses Rosa and Lora, of
Vandevesville. She wras 53 years, 10
months and 17 days of age. Her pres
ence will be sadly missed bv one and all.
The bereaved family have the sympathy
of the entire community.
Her six sons were pall-bearers, and her
remains were interred in Green Hill cem
etery at Martinsburg.
We. have lost our darling mother,
She has bid us ail adieu.
She has gone to live in heaven,
And her presence is lost to view.
Through all pain at times she’d smile
A smile of heavenly birth.
And when the angels called her home,
She smiled farewell to earth.
Heaven retaineth now- our treasure,
Karjth the lonely casket keeps,
And the sunbeams love to linger
Where our sainted mother sleeps.
