PROF. SCHAKF's READING.-Prof. Henry
Scharf gave dramatic reading, at Mozart
Hall. on last Monday night, giving with his
usual fanltless elocution and dramatic effect,
that master comedy of Sheridan, s'Schoof for
Scandal The audience was very small, ow-
ing, doubtless, to the excessive heat 1t was
appreciatiye, however, and greatly enjoyed
the treat. We are sorry to see such a poor
encouragement of these interesting entertain
ments. They are certainly instructive and
amusing, and worth Il dozen of the tinsellcd
humbugs that draw crowds almost every time
they appear. Mr.. Scharf is perfect master of
his profession, and never fails TO delight his al-
dience.

THE NEW WATER WoRKS.-The trial OF
ter Works, was made or Tuesday last. Ev.
cry thing was placed in readiness, and the wa
ter was turned into the pipes at two o'clock
in the evening. Three of the plugs were
opened and hose attached to two Of them. The
force Of the pump threw an inch and quarter
stream fully sixty feet high, reaching to the
top of the new Grange building.
Hose we're also attached to the plugs in the
most elevated parts OF the city, and water
thrown through the same nozzle to n height
Of forty feet.
The engine is u magnificent piece of ma
chinery, and works like clock work. Each
stroke is registered, so tina. it can be seen at q
glance exactly how fast the engine has been
run during the entire Day. In making the
test not Il single pipe was hursted, though the
force Of the stream was terrific. .,-.
It required exactly two minutes to force u
stream Of six inches from the engine house to
the reservoir, q distance of about two thous-
and feet, overcoming an altitude OF two hum
dred and two feet.
| The initial trial was more than satisfactory,
| and even the old croakers who always "knew
! it would not work, - were forced to admit that
| it was an entire success, both for the efficient
engineer Mr.. Allen and the Worthington pat
emit The complete success OF this plan has
indicated its adoption, and will probably stop

church there. Nj. Humphreys was native
of Fluvanna county. from which he removed
upwards Of forty years ago and. settled in
Rockbridge county, where he resided until his
death. respected and beloved by all classes Of
society. In his attachment for the church Of
his choice he never varied. and for its prosper
ity and success he toilcd with unflaggirg zeal.
As az official member he was active and faith
full, and in his quaint and somewhat eccentric
style, he often presented the truths OF religion
forcefully and effectively. In prayer, he was
overwhelming, seemingly taking hold of the
''horns OF the ALTAR" and impressing the audi
ence with the fact, that the prayer OF the
righteous man availcth with God. lie has
passed away in good old age, and all that is
mortal of him now rests in the silent city Of
the dead, while his spirit mingles with those

FATAL EFFECTS OF AN OVERDOSE OF
city Monday evening last. The victim was
Mr.. John R. Schmitt, an old and respected cit
lien of Stannton, who for years had prosecu-
ted the business of barber and hair dresser.
The circumstances of his death, as adduced
before the coroner's jury, Tuesday, were as fol-
lows: Mr.. Schmitt had been drinking for some
days past, and was just recovering from the
effects OF intoXicatioE. His nervous system
was SO shocked that on Monday evening, he beg
ged his wife to send OH. and get some lauda-
mum to quiet him. She at length reluctantly
consented and sending to neighbor, Mr.. Pru-
fer, procured an ounce vial of the medicine. .
She administered to him % drops, and that fail
ing to produce relief she repeated thcdose, and
after a little while, at his earnest entreaty,
gave him the third dose, making in all seven
ty-five drops. She then left the room a few
moments to attend to some domestic duties,
and during her absence Mr.. Schmitt seized
the vial and emptied 1t Of its remaining con-
ing room, and eat very hearty supper. I'm
mediately after. rising from the table the deadly
opite began to show its effects, land he fell tothe
floor. Drs. Henkel and Reese were at once
summoned and administered emetics and an
tldotes, bat to 10 purpose, and lie died in a
very short time after their arrival.
The following gentlemen composed the iu-
~: ii. 2. Cease, Coroner; E. w. Bailey,
Foreman; John S. Lipscomb, Geo. Bunch. A.
j. Friou, William Blackburn and Egbert Har-
man. After hearing the evidence is above,
the jury rendered a verdict OF death from an
overdose OF laudanunl. 1t is not supposed
that MIR. Schmitt contemplated seH-destruc-
ton at the time he swallowed the poison,
though he had once or twice been heard to say
that it made no difference to him whether he
lived or died, but the supposition is that his
system was in such condition as to render
him desperate, and Indifferent to the effect of
the opate so tia. he obtained temporary re-
lief. ~eE ~ so

Our contemporary is mistaken in the name of
the press. 1t is not the ''Acme," which is a
job press, but what is called the .''Cincinnati
Cylinder Press with rack and screw distri-

presses ever made for country offices. The
trade price is 81, 400, with s75 for steam fix
lures. This last we have not, as yet added to
Our press.

for them to examine the one we are now oper
ating, for it is certainly the most unique piece
of machinery we have ever seen.

assurance OF the largest wheat crop raised III

fine wheat. is first class. MI. Henry Mlsl III
forms us that he will raise at least 1000 BUSH
els this year. He claims that he will make
200 Oh fifty acres of ground. The wheat is
of the Fultz kind, and is very fire.
Surely, with 4 good nay and oats crop, good
corn crop, and an immense wheat crop, the
people of the Valley ought to be contented.

DEATH OF Hon. JAMES w. SHEFFEY.-
Hon. James w. Sheffey, member OF the House
of Delegates from Smyth county, and one of
the most distinguished lawyers of the South
west, died on Tuesday the 9th nlt :, at his res
idence in Marion. He was brother of Judge
H. w. Shelley, Of this city, who was Summon
ed to his dying bed
The Marion Patriot and Herald speaking of
his death says.
painful illness of several week, Mr.. James w.
Shetfey, one Of the most distinguished citizens
of our county and State, breathed his last, at
the age of 63 years. He was a man of power
full intellect, and had won Il reputation
throughout the Commonwealth for distin-
guished legal ability. Left an orphan while IL
it'll boy, by an energy which distinguished
every action Of his life, he overcame the diff
cultes thu have to be usually encountered,
and not only became great man, but accu-
INFLATED one OF the largest fortunes ever pos
sessed in this section of the State.
In 1885 he married Miss Eleanor r. Preston,
of Washington county, and Immediately took
UP his residence in Our Gown, where he resided
until the time of his death.
His life was principally devoted to the prac-
tice OF his profession, law, Il potical life never
being attractive enough to drag him from the
duties AMI pleasures of home. He was, now-
ever, Il distinguished member of the Cons5itu-
tional Convention of 1861. known as the Sc
cession Convention, representing this county,
and was also its representative in the House Of
Delegates at the time of his death, in which
body he held IN eminent position at the SEES
sion OF last winter.
In the death Of Mr.. Shelley. Smyth county
has lost great man, and the bar one of its
brightest members, the church with which he
was connected one of Its most useful and i'm
portant members, and his family kind and
loving husband and father. His loss will be
greatly felt in our community
