With feelings of regret We chronicle
The death of Miss lone Sherwood who
died at tue Valley House on Tuesday of
last week, Of consumption. The young
'ady's parents we're residents of Mineral
Point, Wisconsin. Mrs. and Miss Sher
wool came TO Red Clsud a few weeks ago
with the hope that a change ofclimate and
scenery would prove teuefcia! to the In
va.id's health. but in this it seems they
we're 10 be disappointed, az she gradually
grew worse until all hope of her recovery
was given up, and her father Was teIe.
graphed for. but long before he could ar
rive the pure spirit of the once healthy
and vivacious Lone had returned to Him
who gave it, and the grief stricken moth
er was left to mourn the loss Of her
LEVIED one, in q strange land. The de-
ceased Was twenty years AID four months
Of age, the fourth daughter Of the par
ents, and the second they have lost with
in the last eighteen months. Our heart
goes out in sympathy for the tereavcd,
and while We know that it is
hard fer the parents to be rec
oncilcd to the loss of a loved one, We
bope they may fud consolation in know
ing that it was the viii of Him who do
eth all things well.
The funeral took place last Sabbath
Afternoon from the Valley House, and was
attended ly a large concourse Of sympa
thizing citizens.

The Ohio Victory.

FosroRIo. Ohio. October 1.-THE
Republicans OF Northern Ohio cslsbra.
ted the election OF Hon. Charles Foster
to the Governorship Of the State at hil
homo tonight by the largest meeting
ever held here. the crowd being sstims-
ted variously at from $1,000 to 10000.
Excursion trains came from all points Of
the three railroads oeptering here which
could be reached, each numbering from
ten to fifteen coaches loaded to their ca.
pacity. The first speaker Of the even
ing was Mr.. Foster, whose appearances
was greeted with tremendous applause
and cheers. He thanked his audience
for 90 much Of the demonstration
as was intended as special
compliment to himself. and then
spoke OF the arduous nature OF the pam
paiRn and OF the horculsan efforts put
forth by the two parties to carry the
State. he did not regard the result 80
much as a preference OF the people Tor
the Republican candidates. but as indi.
eating that the people OF Ohio repudi.
atsd the issues brought before them BY
the soft money men and q Democratic
Congress. and the rejoicing tonight was
because Of an indication that the cleo.
ton gave that the country itself, In 1880,
would repudiate the issues likewise. II
was not q boom for Grant, or for sher-
man, or for any one man, but for the
principles sustained by the Republican
party. Mr.. Foster concluded by presag'
ing . victory for the Republicans 10

Piper. oper. neuss.

Seldom has 90 good an entertainment
been given at Pipsr's Opera House as
that Of last night. The play presented
was "a Woman OF the People," with
Miss Nettis Holbrook in the title role.
Miss Holbrook not only surprised. but
delighted all by her powerful and excel.
lent assumption Of her part. She had
previously given evidence Of q reserve
force and ability, but even her friends
among the audience had no idea that she
was so thorough an artistic. Her acting
last night placed her at once among
those Who take front rank as p~ortrayers
OF the strong emotions OF life. The
O between her and her husband In
the play, Mr.. Lindsay. were feariully
real, as were in fact all her dslinestions
Of character where strong feelings were
portrayed. Had the people OF che Com
stock known Q 1.-THE Of the ability Of her
im~personation OF this character the
house would have been too small to have
accommodated them. As Il was the few
present were demonstrative, calling her
before the curtain aud msnifesting their
approval by floral gifts and repeated and
hearty applause. Mr.. Lindsay had an
opportunity also last evening to show
his quality and made the most Of It. He
furnished q fitting and adequate support
to Miss Holbrook as did also Mr..
Brown. The ~latter's i~mpersonation OF
RAINY, the railer against married women
and the caussr ofall the trouble In the
family by his influence over the at first
weak husband, was in fne keeping with
the character. In fact these three lead
ing characters OF the play were all that
the keeuest critics could desire. The
play was we'll mounted, ran smoothly
and was in every way, except perhaps
financially, q success. Had 1t been made
the Introductory piece OF the company.
IL seems as though its success would
have been unbounded. The company
is certainly stronger and better than our
people have considered them.
Tonight the delightful comedy OF
1.-THE Overland Route" will be pre-.
ssnted for the first time to o Virginia
audience. As many confuse this play
with another. the following synopsis
will not be out Of place: 1t Is a three
act comedy. written by the great play
wright, Tom Taylor. and derives its title
from the fact that the scenes are laid on
the (Euglish) overland route between
Singapore. via Suez, and London, the
first being in the saloon OF an Oriental
line steamer, the second on the deck Of
the same ship. and the third on a desert
| island. The comedy. without being
extrayagant. is n OF the most laugh
able on the stage. aud abounds with
ludicrous situations, which keep an
audience in q roar from the commence
ment to the close Of the play.
The announcement is authorized that
the performance at the Opera House
this evening will positively be the last
by the present company.
