Decisions Handed Down.
Special Judge Forrest W. Brown, of
Charles Town, presided over a special
term of the Circuit Court of Berkeley
county yesterday afternoon and handed
down his decisions in the cases that have
been heard by him as follows :
In the case of H. H. Emmert, adminis
trator, vs. Mary K. Williamson, a decree
confirming special commissioner's reporl
and directing distribution of purchase
money.
A. J. Thomas’ executors vs. Fannie
Thomas and others, rase heard on ex
ceptions to commissioner’s report, saic
exceptions were taken to allowing debi
ofj. H. Miller, X. Poole and Thomas
D. Page. Court stated that there was nc
trouble as to the allowance of the lattei
two debts and that alter a careful exami
nation of the evidence relative to the
former, that the claim should be allowed
against the estate of A. J. Thomas. The
three exceptions were therefore overruled
In the case of John Fidley, adminis
trator, vs. W. L. Cunningham, after re
viewing the evidence, the Court decided
that the debt, as sought to be established
by plaintiff, was clearly proved by the
promise in writing of the defendant and
a decree was entered to that effect.
In the case of the Improvement, Loan
and Building Association vs. the Auburn
Wagon Company, the Court decided thai
the rents from the real estate and
machinery goes to the Improvement, Loan
and Building Association, by virtue of a
deed of trust on the plant, instead of to
the general creditors of the Auburn
Wagon Company.
After rendering these decisions, Mr,
Brown adjourned Court and stated that
he would hold another special term about
the last of this month and hand down his
decision in the case of Young and Naden
bousch, trustees, in the Improvement,
Loan and Building Association.
Rates of Toll.
The directors of the Dry Run Turnpike
Co. have revised and equalized the rates
of tolls on their road. The rates for rid
ing carriages of all kinds are about the
same as have been charged heretofore,
but the rates for all kinds of wagons, ex
cept the broad tread, have been lowered.
The law places all wagons, if the tires of
the wheels are not more than four inches
wide, in the same class and the directors
have no right, under the law, to discrim
inate in faVor of or against any wagon of
this class, therefore, they have fixed the
rates the same for a four inch tread as for
the narrow tread wagons, for spring
wagons, used in hauling the products of
the farm to market the rates are the same
in proporation to the number of horses,
as for other wagons used for the same
purpose. H. S. B.

For ihi Fourth.
The various committees, appointed at
the last mass meeting held to get up a
Fourth of July celebration met in Gran
than Hall Tuesday and consulted as to
the plans of the celebration. Almost all
the committees were represented and
after reviewing the work already done by
them, they decided to begin today and
put new push and vim into their work
and have a celebration that will far sur
pass the expectations of all. Special trains
will be run and special rates given.
There will be different contests and
amusements going on during the entire
day, principally in the Public Square and
for which different prizes will be offeted
by the business men of the city. Firemen
and bands and various uniformed organi
zations from other cities will be present
and eyerything will be done to make it a
gala day for Martinsburg.
The first thing brought before the
meeting of the committees last night was
a communication from Superintendent J.
F. Boyd, of the C. V. railroad, stating
that two special trains would leave this
city at 9.30 o'clock at night, one for Hag
erstown and one for Winchester, The
train for Hagerstown will make connec
tons with the regular train leaving there
at 10.30 for Chanibersburg. Special rates
will also be offered by the company.
The invitation committee was then in
structed to act with the Fire Department
at its meeting tonight and invite the fol
lowing organizations from the neighbor
ing towns: Fire companies and their res
pective bands, of Winchester, Shepherds
town Fire Department and band; Charles
Town Fire Department and band; Cham
bersbtirg Fire companies and bands;
Waynesboro Fire company and band; the
Jones Spring and Shanghai bands.
The Martinsburg organizations that
will be invited to take part in the parade
are:
City and Comrey s Concert bands;
Fire Department and Drum Corps,
Lincoln Post Grand Army of the Repub
lic ; Confederate Veterans and Sons of
Veterans; Company C, ot the State mili
tia ; Red Men ; Jr. O. U. A. M.; Uniform
Rank K. of P., and D. of A.
The above organizations, together with
the numerous trades display and bicycle
turnouts, will make quite a lengthy and
interesting parade.
In addition to the committees already
appointed, Messrs. Max Robinson, I). S.
Eichelberger and H. C. Perry were ap
pointed as a committee on transportation,
to see the railroad officials about the trans
portation of the different visiting organi
zations.
A committee on trades display was also
appointed, composed of M. S. Burdette,
C. G. Smith and R. D. North, to wait
upon the different merchants and business
men of the city to get them to be repre
s rnted in the parade.
The soliciting committee has already
collected a good sum, but are out
after more. Business men be
patriotic and donate liberally. Let us
have a gigantic celebration.
The fireworks, which will consist of a
costly display, will likely be exhibited at
the same place as last year, on the hill
near the old fair grounds.
Mr. Max Robinson, the manager of the
Auburn Wagon Works, has offered a
prize of $5 to the person in the bicycle
parade with the wheel decorated the most
novel way. It is expected, at least, it is
hoped, that other business men will follow
his example and offer like prizes.
We will celebrate in glorious style.
Help the committees in their work and
remember it is not for their own good
that they are working, but for your good
and the good of the city.
Lively Time.
Tuesday evening Mr. John Furley
and son Theodore came to town and after
a few ho.urs stay here,left for their homes
above Darkesville, feeling “pretty good.”
At the Big Spring they stopped and met
Mr. Furley’s son-in-la w Mr. David O.
Bartles and they both threatened to kill
him with stones.
Mr. Bartles immediately came to town
and had a warrant sworn out for their ar
rest. The warrant was placed in the
hands of Deputy Sheriffs Hollis and
Hardy and they at once started in pursuit
of the two. They arrived at the Furley
home just about the time Furley’s did,and
showed them the warrants and' placed
them under arrest. Officer Hollis arrested
the son and Mr. Hardy the father.
The young man, who is a six footer,
, asked the officer to wait until his wife got
his hat and coat. Mr. Hollis consented
, and while she was getting his clothing,
he uttered an oath, jumped a fence and
i ran. Mr. Hollis called to him to halt,
but his shouts were unheeded. Mr. Hollis
fired one shot into the air. This did not
. stop him and Officer Hardy shot directly
at him, followed by two straight shots
from Mr. Hollis, none of the shots took
effect, however, and Furley made good
his escape. The officers returned to town
with the one prisoner and in the morning
about three o'clock they returned to the
house, but Furley had come on to town
by another route and gave himself up.
They Were given a hearing before Jus
tice Martin Wednesday and each bound
over on a bond of $loo. to keep the peace
for one year.

form and require $69,000 worth of reve
nue stamps. The deeds will take up
about 130 pages in the deed book and it
will take two w'eeks of steady work to re
cord them.

The doors of the popular old hotel, the
Continental, were on Thursday thrown
open for business, after being closed for
about two months. Mr. J. W. Dodd, the
