peatedly to the Creek for supply; but
every barrel that was furnished him would
disappear from the cars before reaching
Falmouth-rumor having it that the rogue
ish Hawkins Zouaves "gobbled" them.-
At length desparing of obtaining any OF
the stuff by order, he proceeded personal
" to Acquia Creek for a supply. He OBJ
tanned one barrel, and, standing it up in
the car, seated himself upon the top, conf
dent that no one could get that away from
him. What was his dismay, on springing
down to the platform at Falmouth, to find
the barrel coming with him, empty. Some
ingenious soldiers had bored a hole up
through the bottom of the car, while the
train halted at Potomac Creek or Burke's
Station, tapped his barrel and drained it to
| the dregs.
BY recent regulation Of the Pension
| Office, many mothers Of deceased soldiers
are now entitled to pensions who were not
previously. Under the original regula-
tons, q mother was required to prove her
| marriage, and only Wid0Ucd mothers
were entitled to pensions, while under the
presant regulations, any mother OF a de-
ceased officer or soldier, If she was depen-
dent wholly or in part on her deceased son
for support, is entitled to a pension, wheth-
or her husband be living or not, and it is
not necessary for mother to prove her
marriage.
An inquisitive landlady recently, on dis

but bricks. wonder how he got them
there?, The servant girl suggested that
he had brought them up stairs in his hat.

Report Of the Grand Jury.

The Grand Jury came into Court on last
Wednesday, made their final report and were
discharged. They report having examined
the Auditors and Treasurer's books, and are
satisfied Herewith also the Hospital and
County Jail, both of which are satisfactory
except that they recommend that pillows and
sheets be introduced into the County Hos
pital, and that few patients having loath-
some diseases, be removed below, as a matter
of justice, both to the patients, who have but
little show of recovery in this climate, and
to the county that is not responsible for the
care Of patients with diseases contracted else
where. They find an insane man in the Jail,
and recommend that he be be examined by
the county physicians, and treated for the
disease of insanity. They also recommend
that the old county records be copied into the
new. books recently received also that safe
be provided for the use of the county. From
the books Of the Treasurer. and Auditor they
find that 1l78 warrants have been issued
in the aggregate $94, 525, 90, and
Of this amount 1928, II has been redeem
ed, leaving the county $50, 7O2,8 80 in debt at
this date, with no money in the Treasury
The practice of the County Commissioners,
in drawing Special Warrants to meet partic-
ulaF exegencies, is not positively condemned, |
bat the Board is admonished not to indulge
in such a system any more, but that warrants
be paid in the order of their registration, as
required by statute.

other struck him in the back, but it is not
known in which direction it ranged as it did
not come to the surface; third hit him in
the thigh. At first Miller was not aware that
he was hurt, and it was not until the Sheriff
had conveyed him half way to the jail on
