BLOOD WILL TELL. 1T is not often,
in this practical age, that men have great
ness thrust upon them. Nor does it hap
pen frequently that IL single individual re-
ceiyes nineteen propositions in one day,
all Offering positions at salaries ranging
from SD, cooper annum down. Such, how
ever, was the .experience of a young gen.
tleman last week, and strange as it may
seem all of these munilicent tenders We're
from well-known and responsible business
men of StauntOn-men who know the
value of services and are not in the habit
of leaping in the dark.
( Last Friday morning Capt Newport,
one of the most popular railroad con-
ductors in the Union, and gentleman
having friends by the score wherever he is
known, received at Lexington nineteen
pOstals from rs many firms and individ-
uals, Offering a situation to his SON. The
list was headed by a prominent official
of Staunton, who stated that being in need
of secretary, he was willing to pay to
young Mr.. Newport 81 900 per month and
no questions asked. Various firms made
tenders, adding that the salary to be paid
was mo object,' and some were SO anxious
that they offered controlling partnerships
in their concerns. The gallant Captain
was fairly overwhelmed with the avalanche
of generosity, and at last accounts had not
made mp his mind which proposition to ac-
cept in behalf of his worthy scion. Only
one difficulty presented itself. His only
son, whose arrival had been anticipated
for years, put in an appearance the first of
last week. and turned ont to be a GIRL.

The Coal Contract at the Institution.
HOW IT WAS AWARDED-MR. DAVIS HIM.
SELF MAKES THE PROPOSITION TO THE
DEALER AND IT rs ACCEPTED-INTER
VIEW WITH MR.. J. w, WADDY.

In his Interview published in the ViadS
Gator, Mr.. Thos. S. Davis, late steward al
the d., ID. & B. Institution, stated that in
the fall of 1882, he proposed to the Execu-
tive Committee to contract for the Goa
supply for the approaching winter, when
one member of the Committee, engaged
IN that business, proposed to furnish it as
low as it could be bought for,n and that
under this arrangement the Institution
paid $40 per ton, when the coal could
have been obtained for 1925 per ton.
In order to reach the facts involved in
SO grave charge, areporter Lof the VIR-
GINIAN called upon MI. J. w. Waddy,
and the following interview was had:
| Reporter-Were. you a member of the
Board of Visitors of the D., d.. & B. I.
during the fall of 1882 /? and if so are YOU
the party to whom Mr.. Davis refers as
having proposed to furnish coal as low as
it could be bought for ?''
Mr.. Waddy-I have read Mr.. Davis in
terview, and presume that I am the
party to whom he refers in the connection
| stated.
Reporters his statement of the trans
action correct?
Mr.. Waddy.-By no means, The facts
are these When approached upon the
subject of the coal contract, declined to
name any price at all, giving as reason
that being member of the Board, / did
not think it proper to become contractor
under it. | referred Mr.. Davis to Messrs.
Larew & Lewis, in whose employ [ was,
but stated distinctly that any contract
made must be made with a member of the
firm, as did not intend to be involved in
the transaction in any way. That was Ill
the connection I had with the coal con-
tract.
Subsequently Mr.. Davis went to Mr.. Lew
is, as Mr.. Lewis informs me, and asked at
what figure he would furnish the coal. Mr..
Lewis replied that he would let him know
in day or two. Several days afterwards,
Mr.. Davis returned and asked Mr.. Lewis
if he would undertake e the contract at the
same figures paid Larew e Lewis the year
before by the Institution, under the adj
ministration Of Mr.. Doyle-viz, $40 per
ton. MI. Lewis replied that he would,
and that he would order the coal at once.
Reporter-It was Mr.. Davis own propo-
sition then?
Mr.. Waddy-Ye s, sir.
Reporter-Had you any pecuniary inter
est in the transaction?
Mr.. Waddy-None whatever. L was en-
ployed by the firm of Larew & Lewis at
a regular salary, which was not affected
one way or the other by the sales.
Reporter-Did Mr.. Davis ever mention
to you that he could have gotten the coal
at $$s3. rs per ton ?
Mr.. Waddy-He never said one word
about it until late in December. After it
was known that I, as member of the
Board, was in favor of sustaining the
principal in a conflict of authority between
that officer and the Steward, Nh, Davis in
formed me that he could have gotten the
coal at a less price than was paid Larew &
Lewis.
Reporter were the politics of
Messrs. I4arew & Lewis at the time of this
transaction?
Mr.. Waddy-Both of them were Demo-
Gratis then, and are Democrats now.
The interview then closed.

Reported for the vIRGINrAN.

Since the election our prosperous little
town is us quiet and happy as ever. The
Democrats seem ashamed of their victory,
and little boasting. The Readjusters silent
ly condemn the wicked programme of their
enemies in the last election and are de-
termined to work the harder in 'S4. They,
however, nearly all believe in moderation,
and advocate that the Readjusters should
appeal to the reason of the people, and on
no account adopt the Funder policy OF ap-
pealing to the passion. AS consequence.
they heartily approve of the reasonable
course pursued by the VIRaINrAN.
