Died, October 22d, at his residence in Wythe
county, Va, THOMAS H. SIMMERMAN, in the
5Sth year of his age
Mr.. Slmmerman was one of our best and most
highly respected citizens, and the writer is cor
of the community when he says there is no man
ly felt and more deeply deplored. He was a
combined with remarkable gentleness and anna
billtY of temper. Emin ntly just in all his
dealings, and d.ligent and faithful in the dis
charge of every trust committed to him He
was friend of the poor, such as is rarely found.
Greatly will they miss his kind mInlstl auons,
and deeply mourn his loss.
He united with the Anchor of Hope Presby-
terrain church about nine years ago, and was
elected apd ordained ruling elder about year
afterwards. From the time of his union with
the people OF God his walk was that of an hum
bic and consistent Christian, and for the greater
part of that time he was faithful and efficient
Elder.
The circumstances attending his death were
IN some respects very sad. In fullness of health
and the prime of his usefulness he was thrown
from his horse, and so severely injured that
from the first his friends had scarcely any hope
of his recovery; but he knew whom he had
believed, and with unehaken confidence in his
Redeemer he patiently and calmly waited his
appointed time. and then passed away leaving
to his bereaved family, wife and three chill
dren, the heritage of spotless name-and all
the assurance that Christian life and tran
gull death could give that he had entered into
the rest that remaineth for the children of God

The Contest Casts.

WASHINGTON, April 2l.-Calkins's deter
mination to postpone calling up the contested
after discussion with other leading Repub-
licans, who are of the opinion that the Demo
Gratis do not wish to first act upon the Lynch
Chalmers case, as that was the first case re-
ported from the committee. 1t is now de-
cided that 1t will be the first discussed 1t is a
much stronger case for the contestant than is
the Mackey-Dibble case from South Carolina.
The latter would only be argued upon the
technicalities arising out of the fact that the
real contest, so far as Mackey's testimony Is
concerned, was with O'Connor, who died be-
fore the meeting of congress. The majority
of the committee are deslrous of making all
their political speeches upon the Missis-
sippi case and the Towe.Wheeler case from
Alabama.

CdNADa'S CARIOATURIST.
His Appearance at the Opera House Last
Night.

Last evening, Bengough. the Canadian Mast.
lectured and gave examples of his proficiency
as a cartoonist before very small audience
at the Opera House. Mr.. Bengough's lecture
is rather crude affair, made up principally Of
gems from Bob Burdett, Nasty, Mark Twain,
the Brooklyn Eagle. and other
sources, interspersed with occasional
poetlcal quotations and occasional original
plays upon sentences and local hits, delivered
in rather dry and uninteresting manner, but
with elements of merit in construction and
delivery wlthal. His cartoon work Is really
excellent. He executes quickly and with a
proper idea of light shade and finish to give
expression to his idea.
Last evening he confined himself entirely
to local characters, and considering the very
short time he has had tostudy the faces,
form and po::es of his subjects, the excellence
of some of his works was truly wonderful.
Before drawing any cartoon he would in his
lecture lead the audience to thinking of
some character entirely foreign to
the one ne was going to draw,
and the fact that in every instance, save one
perhaps. the original was recognized, often
long before the cartoon was finished, very for
chilly illustrates the excellence Of his work.
AS basis, Mr.. Bengough commenced with
the remark that the moral world had two
hemispheres, the visible and miserable, which
heillustrated by drawing two hemispheres, one
large and one small, the smaller dropped
a little below the larger. A few touches of
the pencil and the smaller circle was converted
into the head of a laughing child, while the
larger with equal facility into scowling old
man. A few more touches and the miseries
of childhood were illustrated by creating a
soualling baby from the smaller hemisphere.
and disguised pater familias in night clothes
trying to soothe and quiet the little one.
His next production was monkey, to
which in time an organ and crank tunner, the
latter very good likeness of well.known
music dealer was attached. Then Chief of
Police Weber in the act of arresting small
culprit was given, the likeness of the chief
being one of the poorest of the evening. One
of his best was Col. Allen, of the Merchants,
in the act of introducing his son
Ehle. A good take off was Capt.
Castle, of the Dispatch, with a re-
volver in one hand and telescope in the
other, with the legend "Where's Wheelock,
any way?" Albert scheffer in the act of TAX
ing foaming beer was only passably good.
but that Of Gen. johnson represented as bear
ing deposits for st. Vincent town lots, was
excellent, Another fairly good, was John
Dodge, the. genial and good looking chief
clerk of the Merchants; The city. govern.
ment was represented by Alderman Mccarthy
and the county government by County Attor-
ney Egan, both only passably good.
At the close the cartoons were sold, A. M.
Doherty acting as auctioneer, the price, rang
ing from 25 cents to S1.00.

Serious Runaway-Horse Killed.

Quite serious accident occurred on Rice
street, just where it enters Tenth, yesterday
noon, whereby valuable horse, belonging to
driver of car No. 81 was going up Rice street,
near Tenth, with the car full of people, when
his attention was directed to team of run
away horses coming down Rice street. The
driver had hardly time to look at them before
they were upon him. As they came down they
ran straigh. upon the car team and jumped
right on to and into it, bending the dash
board of the car, SO that it was difficult for
the driver to get out. The money box was
knocked ali to pieces and the money scat cred
all around. The car was filled with people,
and one little girl tainted. and
was carried away to be restored to
consciousness. One of the car horses was in
stantly killed by having the pole OF the run
away team run into him about twenty inches,
tearing of the top of his heart. This was one
of the most valuable horses the street car COM
pany owned. The driver of the car team,
Richard Shallahan, was good deal bruised,
especially about the right knee. Subsequently
the limb swelled up good deal and was quite
painful. The driver Of the runaway team was
very much intoxicated, and was driving In the
most reckless manner, whipping and whack-
ing his horses at every atep nearly all the
time till they were stopped by the street car.
Officer Babe was present when the horses ran
into the street car and Immediately arrested
the drunken driver of the runaway team and
locked him up. All the afternoon
he kept up an unearthly yelling
and bowling in his cell, which was duly varf.
gated by dancing and assaulting the door of
his cell in the most vicious manner.
The team he was driving BELONGED to Griggs
& Foster, and be dashed the horses all the way
down Carroll street, till at last he was thrown
out just before he got to the car. 1t SO hap
pened that the mother of the driver of the
runaway team was on the car, and like others
was good deal shocked by the collision.
When her drunken son saw her he attempted
to talk to her, but was too drunk to accom-
plish much in that line.

Cost of The Census.

THE CENSUS SUPERINTENDENT CRITICISED.
WASHINGTON, April 2l.-Beck's resolution
in the senate directing inquiry into the prob
able cost of completing the census is the
result of the very great dissatisfaction exist
ing in congress with the mismanagement of
the late superintendent of the census. In
spite of the appropriation being nearly double
the first estimated cost Of taking the census,
it is known that the present superintendent is
embarrassed at finding the last deficiency ap-
preparation inadequate to close up the work.
An enormous mass of undigested material is
on hand, which, if prepared and printed, will
cost more than s5,000,000. The business
methods of the late superintendent are sharply
criticised by several senators who have been
looking into census matters.

The New Store of Joseph Mickey s. Co..
The Opening Yesterdsy-A Credit to the
City and State.
Messrs. Joseph Mickey & Co., of the Bos.
ton One Price Clothing house, invited their
friends and patrons to inspect one OF the
largest and finest stocks of clothing ever
opened in the northwest, at their new store, 1913
East Third street, corner of Robert. The firm
occupy the entire first floor and basement, 30
by 40 feet, making it one of the largest re-
tail clothing establishments in the country,
as it eertainlyis one of the finest. Standing
on the corner, with an almost continuous
plate glass front on Third street and half
dozen large windows on the Robert street side,
1t is splendidly lighted in the day by the natural
light, while at night several electric lights
brilliantly Illuminated every nook and corner
of the great space.
For the opening yesterday. In addition to
the usual attractive dressing of the great show
windows, and most attractive display of
clothing upon the numberless counters, an
air of spring time had been given to
the interior by liberal distribution of house
plants. Immediately in front of the broad
entrance, suspended over mammoth palm,
was the cordial invitation "Welcome,n the
background of evergreens, and the letters
formed of white roses, pink fuchias and other
choice flowers.
The furniture of the establishment, count
ers, Office apartments, desks, etc., is solid
carved work and mouldings, both handsome
and substantial. The interior arrangements
is both attractive to the eye and
convenient for customers and attend
ants. Three nicely carpeted dressing
rooms occupy space about mid
way on one side, while wherever you turn fine
mirrors are met in which one can see himself
as others see him. The stock embraces every
thing going to make up miss's and boy Is
wearing apparel, except the mere item of
boots and shoes.
The success attending the firm is the best
guarantee that it has been liberal
and fair dealing in the past.
It is now only some eleven. years
since Mr.. Joseph Mickey, the senior of the
firm, started in business in a little one story
frame structure, standing where Kennedy's
gun shop is now located, his entire stock of
goods not representing as much capital as is
now employed in Ills new department of hats
and caps. He started his business
upon the one price, cash down principle,
and he has steadily followed out his purpose.
The result is told in the grand opening yes.
terday. 1t has been like the opening a grand
success success of which Mr.. Mickey may
well be proud.

Republican Caucus.

TELLER s SUCCESSOR ON COMMITTEES.
WASHINGTON, April 21.-The Republican
senators held caucus this morning to ar
range for filling vacancies on committees
create by the retirement of Secretary Teller
from the senate. Teller was chairman of the
committee on pensions, and had places on
several other committees. The matter was
referred to the same caucus committee which
arranged the committees at the opening Of the
session. 1t is thought the Senator Van Wick,
of Nebraska, will probably be made chairman
of the pension committee.
The Chinese bill was brought up and dis
cussed, but no action was taken. A general
sentiment in favor of the bill to restrict Chi
nese immigration was expressed, but some
senator's thought the house bill had not been
drawn SO as to obviate all the objections
which the president urged to the vetoed bill
and that it ought to be so amended, but the
discussion was informal aud no decision was
reached, so that Senator Miller's programme
to call up the house bill at the first opportu-
nifty and offer the amendments CT the senate
foreign relations committee will be carried
out.
The Chinese bill was the subject of some
remarks during the Republican caucus meet
ing, several Eastern senator's desiring to OBJ
tain caucus declaration in support of the
senate committees amendments. The inter-
change of views had made little progress,
however, when the caucus adjourned.

When all with one accord give spontaneou

When all with one accord give spontaneous

and we are heartily glad of the generosity
which does not hesitate to give good article
it's due need of praise. Mr.William Hadeler,

since, said Mr.. H., took severe cold, which
settled in my limbs and gradually developed
into a bad case of rheumatism. After
suffering for some time, and using many diff
:erent preparations (among which was a rem
edy prescribed by physician)-all without
receiving any benefit whatever, friend adj
vised me to try st. Jacobs Oil. l did SO ex-
pecting to receive but little benefit, and was
considerably surprised to feel somewhat cas-
Ter after the first application. The use of only
one.third of a bottle perfectly cured me.
From state of complete helplessness, am
now just as strong and healthy as ever, and
gladly give all the praise to that wonderful
remedy, st. Jacobs Oil.
