THE FASTING DOCTORS SPIRITS LESS
BuoYANT AND HIS CONDITION POOR.
At half-past one o'clock a. M, Sun
day, the faster was sleeping soundly In
his cot by the window, watched by
Drs. Ernest F. Hoffman, J. E. WrighI
and DR.. Osborne. The sleeper scarce
ly moved until quarter to four o.
clock, when he awoke and drank an
ounce OF water from the graduated
glass. At a quarter TO five he was
awakened and told that it was time to
dress for his morning ride. He said
as it was Sunday he would not go out
driving. He thought he would prefer
short walk, so getting up shortly be-
fore six he was ready for promenade
few minutes later, and accompanied
by Drs. Osborne, Holman and repor-
ter he strolled away from Clarendon
Hall in the direction. of Union square.
On arriving there he seated himself on
bench and proceeded to take a birds
eye view of poor humanity as repre-
sented by the blear-eyed, frowsy loaf
ers, who, having the previous night ex-
pended their few cents ON beer had
temporarily established themselves in
sleeping quarters on the seats around
the fountain. He was less talkative
than is his wont. and the only remark
he made while seated in the square
was evoked by little dark eyed Ital-
ian lad picking up cigar stumps from
the walks. ''They put those in the
lager beer" said the Doctor. The
faster returned to the hall about eight
O'Clock, having halted on route to get
shaved. Instead of proceeding to the
gallery as usual he had his cot brought
down to the large room ON the right
hand side on the ground floor looking
into Thirteenth street. Here he lay
quietly doing until half-past nine,
when he expressed a desire to visit
Fort Lee.
AN UNEvENTFUL DAY.
At twenty minutes to ten a. M, the
Doctor went up stairs to the hall,
where he Immediately took off his coat
and shoes and lay down on his cot. Al
fifteen minutes after ten he took six
ounces of water without ice, but save
for that he remained. perfectly still un.
til half-past one o'clock, when he got
up, put on his coat and slippers, and
sat down at his writing table. During
this interval Drs Danelson and Eagen
(eclectics) and DR.. Sullivan Gold
SCHOOL, succeeded the previous watch
ers. At twenty minutes to two p. M,
the faster woke up, and finishing his
toilet, sat down beside table to re-
sumo the reading of his correspond
ence.
At halt-past five p. m, DR.. Tanner
was doing on his cot, and at half-past
eight p. m. he was weighed. He tip
ped the scales at 1899 pounds. DR..
Gum talked with the Doctor for about
thirty minutes, and at half-past nine
p. m, the faster undressed and went
to bed.

Mr.. a. J. Drumheller, an active worker
in the Y. M. G. A. of New Hope, living in
the neighborhood, saw the great need OF
Sunday school east of the river and en-
deavored to organize one, He got permits
sion of the School Trustees of the Middle
River district to occupy the school house
for the purpose OF holding the Sunday
school. With the cooperation of Messrs.
Ham and few others they met on the
18th OF May, 1880, to organize the school,
Rev. A. =. Fry was also present and gave
a helping hand. At the first meeting there
were about ten present and the following
officers were elected: A. j. Drumheller.
ESQ.,, of the Methodist church, Supt.; s..
d. Ham of the Baptist church, Asst.
Supt.; J. A. Freed, Sec,y, and E. W. Wal

efforts of the officers the school increased
in numbers and influence until it's men,

scholars.
This school was not composed of chill

"Take your seat, Mr.. Wilson!' and the
Governor turned round with the most
whitening look at the Colonel: ssAny more

have, trOt 'em Out!"
"A hasty consultation between the Colo.
mel and his client followed, during which
the audience INDUCED in a hearty laugh
at their expense. Presently another Wit

pounded to him, with the same answers

with the same results as Mr.. Wilson's tes-

after short argument, in which Governor
Letcher produced the most convincing au-
thority that the law of Virginia protected
a person in the enjoyment Of his property
in dog as well as any other species Of
property, and the Court 80 instructed the
Jury. In a few minutes after retiring the
jury brought in verdict of SIS damages
to the plaintiff for the dog, which carried
with it the costs-by this time swelled to
considerable sum by the frequent post
pOnements and the distance which had
been repeatedly travelled by the numerous
witnesses, all of whom claimed their
mileage and attendance every time.
Thus ended this cause celebre by which
the doctrine. that the law of Virginia will
protect the owner of a valuable dog from
the malice and meanness of dog-slayers,
was freely announced and publicly vlndi-
Gated by our Court. The only cause of

more Of the Holy Scriptures by becoming
members of classes. From the beginning
the scholars committed verses from the
scriptures. The Superintendent seeing
there was much interest taken In this,
offered prize to the one who would COM
nit the most verses.
The officers Of the school concluded to
to award the prizes The contest was very
close between Mrs. John Crickenberger
and Mr.. j. A. Freed but Mr.. F. had COM
mitted six hundred and ten verses which
gave him very small majority. This was,
we suppose, the first picnic OF any impor-
lance ever held in the vicinity. ReYs. A.
Weller and A. E. Pierce of the Methodist
church, and Rev. A. q. Fry of the Baptist
church were present to address the school.
The labors of this school did not close
with the picnic as is so often the case, but
it seemed to put new life in to all interes-
ted, and they pressed forward to do the
Masters will. There we're often addresses
delivered to the school. not only by the
clergy, but by other gentlemen who i'm
pressed upon the minds of the people the
great necessity of serving the living God.
These addresses seem to have been seed
sown in good ground and the fruit brought
forth was revival meeting conducted by
Rev. A. G. Fry assisted by Rev. A. Weller
of New Hope. At this meeting there were
IS converts, 9 of whom joined the Baptist
church and the remaining 9 joined the
Methodist church.
But The school progressed until the fros-
| ty mornings compelled the sslittle Ones''
| to remain at home, consequently it was
thought best to close until the balmy days
of spring came back, when they would all
| return again with light hearts and smiling
| faces to pursue their beloved studies.
| After the picnic there were two prizes
i offered by the Superintendent, the first
was prize to the large scholar who COM
mitted the most verses from that time un-
til the close of the school, and the other
to the small scholar who committed the
most. The school closed the 10th lnst.,
and we we're glad to hear so much scrip
ture repeated. Mrs. Crickenberger re-
peated 1855 verses aud John A. Freed re-
peated ITO verses. Willie Crlckenberger
aged about nine yeals, had committed b
verses or that day, and during the lattel
half of the session he repeated about 4O(
verses. The whole number Of verses from
the scriptures committed during the sum
committed 1888 and j. A. Freed, $50. UP
on this occasion there were addresses b,
Rev. Layton Sampson of the United
Brethren church and James Phillips, alst
by H. G.. Barnhart, who had been invited
to deliver the farewell address. A. j
Drumheller, the Superintendent, followed
with some very feeling and appropriate re
marks. The prizes, two nlce chromOs
were delivered to Mrs. Crickenbarger an(
her little son. This is bat brief outline
of the good results flowing from the work
ings of a few faithful men.

politics was In New York last week and
took the opportunity to 60 over to Cover

In conversation with that distinguished
officer he remarked that he hoped the news
from Indiana had not discouraged him.

THE STRONG TICKET.

1t has been the honest feeling among
many Democratic Readjusters in Augusta
that when the time came they would vote
the Hancock ticket that was strongest and
which could carry the State. The time
has come. The faithful allies'' have sud.
denly determined to vote solidly for Gar
field, and Gen. Malone. who was supposed
to ''know all about it, is now on a mission
to Philadelphia to see, we presume. what
can be done. The Independents are panic
stricken. They have been told all along
that the "faithful ally" was good for the
campaign; that ''at Richmond they had
the whole programme marked out and
there was no such word as fail and that
General Malone had figured it down 90
finely that he knew precisely how the vote
of Virginia would go. There was rumol
that some mysterious understanding had
been established with the colored brethren
in some still more mysterious districts
by which the remarkable spectacle of q
negro Republican voting for Democratic
President was to be presented for the edi-
6cation Of the people Of Virginia. That
was to make, as we were told, the ''strong-
est ticket" And now the whole vision
has suddenly faded out. The ''ally" has
betaken himself to his camp and proposes
to vote for Garfield straight out and repay
the obligations he is under to the Indepen-
dents by voting for their congressional
candidates who are more acceptable be-
cause in his view they do not represent the
"white mans party"
Let the Democratic Readjusters of An.
gusta--and that term includes nearly all
their party-now revise their intentions.
There is but one ticket at the mast now.
1t is the old flag of the Democracy. The
Independent ticket Is not even worth TAX
ing down; it is dead and may be allowed
to flap Imply as warning to these who
are now about to learn by experience that
the Democracy Of Virginia Is impreguable.

The only hope of the Independent ticket
was in the faithful allies" Now they
have gone, the best thing to be done is to
take the ticket down. Gen. Malone says
be is Democrat; if he is in earqest, now
is the time to show it.

The National Republican Committee
has struck the anvil and the sparks are
already flying. We learn from the Mont
gomery Messenger" that Mr.. James B
Price, who was appointed on the Read
juster County Committee of that county,
has declined the position saying that his
name was used without his authority and
that he intends .s'to work and vote for the
Republican ticket and that the Republic
cans will ca rry Virginia. Neither the
white nor black "faitbful allies'' seem to
stick.

Buster is poor campaign material; it
is far better for either side to be frank
with the voters. The plain statement of
the case is this: the Democrats have 1888
votes sure; to this they need only add New
York (certain), New Jersey (certafn) and
Connecticut (doubtfuD to carry the cleo
ton. This leaves out Indiana which is as
sure for Hancock as, you might say, New
York is.
