DIVORCED AND RE.MARRIED.-
Tuesday afternoon young couple got
on the excursion train here OH their
way West, who had just been married
second time under peculiar crcum-
stances. Four years ago Y. L. San
ders, a young mechanic Of good charac-
ter, living at Mount Crawford, who had
been married hardly year to young
lady born in Waynesbero, had diff
Guilty with a neighbor named Dovel and
killed him. There was no doubt Of the
blow having been given by Sanders,
though there were no witnesses pres
ent to testify as to how il was given.
The prosecution contended that it was
done with a weapon, while the defence
claimed that it was given in sudden
passion with the hand. The man had
died of conclusion of the brain. The
prisoners young wife staid by him dur
ing the trial and showed the greatest
devotion to him. The end was a
sentence TO four years in the State
prison. After the husband had been in
prison a short time the wife, under the
advice OF her friends, awaited herself Of
the provisions of the law which divorces
the wife of convict and obtained a di-
vorce. In prison, young Sanders main
tanned the good character for steadiness
ard industry that he had before he
went there, and under prison regula-
tons his term was shortened forty-two
days for every year. A few days ago
the time expired and Sanders returned
home, free man. His former wife
was living with her mother, and the
neighbors say from the day it was
known that he was in the village a
change was visible in her manner, and
a long-absent cheerfulness returned.
For seme days Sanders made no at
tempt to see her, but last week they
met and the old love proved the winner.
On Saturday they went to Harrisonburg
and were remarked. The act gave
great offence to the friends OF both, and
when tie couple got back from Har-
risonburg to Mt. Crawford the mother
of the girl refused to let her enter the
house. A brother Of the groom, who
felt indignant ut The former conduct of
the wife in procuring divorce, also re-
fused to receive them. They repaired
to the house Of a kind lady in the
where they were re-
ceived. The young man determined to
emigrate to the West, there to. com
mence life under different circumstances
and on Tuesday, as we have stated,
they came to Staunton and took the
train for their new home. The re-
mantle story, which we get from a
neighbor and friend Of the groom, was
the staple .or conversation in the
village which they have left m1i-
Gator.

Yellow Fever,

The suffering caused by the yellow
fever in the South should command the
sympathy Of every town in the country.
People arc daily dying for the lack of
attention. Tswns are depopulated. In
some places there are not sufficient
number of well people to care for the
sick. Nurses are employed and food
and medicine furnished by charitable
associations. In many Of the cities
LARGE contributions have been made
We have done nothing. We are favored
with an abundance ofeverything needed.
Our crops have been much larger than
usual. The health Of our people is
GOOD. There is no reason why we should
not contribute literally for the relief Of
cur fellow countryman who are suffering
and in some cases arc dying for want OF
the attention which the funds which we
would contribute might assist in pro-
curing. 1t is a lsubject of great I'M
portance. What is to be done should
be done quickly. Let subscription
papers be passed around and collectors
appointed to solicit aid for the sufferers.
The Young Mems Christian Association
could do good work, Let them take the
management oft and make prompt
appeal to our citizens.

\ LARGE baln located on farm on the

lonced 10 q Mr.. prieur, lately from

brilliant illumination Of the city caused
by the burning Of this immense quantity
of material, the loud ferries of fire and
the yioleut ringing of bells produced
intense excitement and rudely broke
up religious services in the various
churches. But for the prompt and
energetic action Of the Junior, indie
pendent and United fire companies,
with their steamers, the destruction
would have been much greater. The

Another famine in Ireland is threat
ened by the failure Of the potato crop.
The Boston Pilot states that the resent

that Of 1917, in which and the preceding
year there were half a million deaths

oflast year were almost dead loss, the
yield in some cases not paying tenth
the cost of planting, and now from ma
