MIR. ARTHUR AND SENATOR VEST VIE WITH
EACH OTHER IN HOOKING TROUT.
A correspondent telegraphs from Camp
Hampton, on Snake river. August 20, Uid
Fort Washakie, August %, as follows ::
The Presidents party reached this camp
after travelling about eighteen miles along
the Foot hills between the Shoshone and
Teton mountains. The camp is named in
honor OF Senator Wade Hampton, who
was expected to accompany the party. 1t
Is OH a bluff on Snake river facing the
entire Teton range.
Judge Rollins shot his first antelope to-
day. All kinds of game abound in the vi
cinlty. Most OF the party went trouting
to-day, the President and Senator Vest eX-
ceiling the rest and vieing for supremacy.
Each landed 2.-pound trout from the
bluff facing the camp. Their catch was
larger than on any previous day. AT the
last camp the temper OF the party was Sc
yerely tried by the extremes OF weather
experienced The weather was hot in the
middle OF the day. Throughout the day
and night severe gale OF "chinook 4"
wind prevailed, accompanied by binding
clouds OF dust. Ice formed one inch thick
on the water-buckets before the tents by
morning.
To-day the weather is clear and braclng,
and all are in good health and spirits. To-
morrow's march will bring the party TO
the southern boundary Of the Yellowstone
Park

CARS DEMOLISHED, But THE PASSENGERS MI
RACULOUsLY ESCAPE.
A Bradford (Pa.) special says: The pas
sengers on the brokers' express, running
from TituSvllle to Bradford. over the New
York, Pennsylvania and Ohio and the New
York, Lake Erie and Western roads, to-
day had a most miraculous escape from an
instant and horrible death. The train left
TItusvlle on time, and when at Red House.
a small station a few miles west of Sala-
manca. was running at high rate Of speed.
At this point the entire tram, through the
gross carelessness of the switchman, was
allowed TO run through the switch. The
locomotive bumped over the ties for nearly
two rods. and was going at so high rate
Of speed that a long and deep cattle-guard
was cleared as il by jump.
The train consisted OF baggage car.
smoker, and two coaches. All the cars
were filled. Before coming TO the cattle
guard the tender broke loose from the en-
CINE, and after running on the ties about
thirty feet capsized and rolled down the
bank. The baggage car, when released
from the tender, started over the ties and
ran about 100 feet, coming to a dead halt
i'm the middle OF public highway. The
Ddggage-lldSitI was thiONh NioiOh'le W
end Of the car and buried under heap OF
trunks and packages, but luckily escaped
with only few bruises.
Every car on the train left the track. The
trucks on the tender and smOking-car were
forced into bunch. All the trucks under
the coaches left their places, but the cars
did not capsize or even fall over on their
side. The passengers, aside from severe
shaking up and slight bruises, escaped I'M
injured. The track was torn up for long
distance, and for the present temporary
road will be built around the wreck.

TIE NEW ISSUE OF STAMPED ENVELOPES AND
GE-sTAMPs-TIIE POSTAL NOTES.
After the 1st Of September" the Post
Office Department will begin to receive re-
quisitions for the two-cent stamped enye-
lopes under the new schedule. Postmas-
tiers are already receiving advance pay
ments for special-request envelopes" OF
the new issue-that is. envelopes having
printed thereon by the Post-Ofiice Depart
ment the name and address OF the person
or firm using them, with a request to re-
turn il not delivered in specified
number Of days. All orders received
at the Richmond post-Office for such enve-
lOpes uD TO the close OF business Saturday,
lst proXimo, will be forwarded to Wash
ington by the next mail going north. AS

issued to postmasters until 10Th September,

Prince IIohenlohe. in an interview at

From information derived from the last
CITY Directory it was yesterday stated that
William jenkins & Co. did business at 1918
east Main. When the Directory was made
that was their place; but they have since
moved about a square higher UP the street.
No. 1918 is now occupied by L. W. Wood.
Oh that our people had the spirit of the
Atlanta folks. Their SG00.000 hotel burnt
down, and they are now going TO rebuild
it. And Richmond, with more business and
population. can't even raise $4,000 for a
music hall!
That is a big job Of grading the city has
undertaken to do on Fourth street between
Byrd and Cary, and there is no telling
when it will be finished, so slow are we in
pushing forward street improvements.
Public opinion, so potent in many other
respects, never could hurry our city au-

IIenricO Politics.

At the county courthouse TO-DAY the two
Malone committees now at variance will
meet apart, and if fusion cannot be Sc
cured will, perhaps, each in its own way
proceed to order a nomination for the
House.
The trouble arises from IN alleged at
tempt to "sit down" on the Republican
leaders OF the county, especially Mr.. South
ward. who is the sheriff.
No doubt in the end n sort OF arrange
ment will he maze by which the warning
elements will be united to oppose the De-
mOcracy OF Eienrico.
These squabbles OF the enemy do not
amount to much. They are most generally
reconciled by the day OF election. What
our people in Henrico have got TO do is to
go to work and depend upon bringing out
their reserve vote. Organization and zeal
will elect the delegate.

tion and wants of this numerous class. and, rs a
result Of this effort, and practical knowledge, OBJ
