Old wills in Fairfax Court House.

Washington Post: The viii of
Washington, though written at the
close of the last century, might be
called one of the modern records of
the Fairfax county court house. 1t
is the first entry In ''Liber H." and
the seven preceding books are filled
with wills recorded as far back as
1742. The books are made of parch-
ment and bound with leather. The
records are carefully written, or rather
printed, each letter being made separate
though used yesterday. After each
as will is an inventory of the personal
property of the deceased, taken by
commission appointed by the court,
custom which prevails to the present
day. Let us look for a moment at
the inventory of the estate of Thomas
Arbuthnot, gent, who died somewhere
about the middle of the last century.
Seven white servants, valued at 9S
apiece, head the listand appearto to have
been the most valuable part of the
estate. Seven brass candlesticks and.
a teapot was apprised at IL. What
imaginations of old-time gossip center
around six old arm-chairs and tea
table, which were valued at FL SIS.
Other items III the estate of Mr..
Arouthnot were "a pair of money
scales and weights, still and worm,
two cases of old pistols, twelve shurts,
two old wlggs and silver-hllted
sword" The record of Dennis Nc
Carly S personal property covers sever
al pages and presents a total value of
91, AL Is. Sd. In this estate fifty-one
negroes were included, the men being
apprised from ESQ to &35, the women
nearly as much, and the boys and
girls from 910 to G25. Queer names,
such as Songo, Boss and Hercule, had
the negro slaves, while Joan, Sabine
and Rhoda were some of the titles
given to the girls. A warming pan,
case of pistols and holsters, candle
snuffers and firetongs and shovels,
were some of the ancient articles
which belonged to George Harrison,
gentleman. John Hampton's in
ventory shows that he owned, among
other things, one "neagro" man, ten
slider" (spelled elsewhere "cyder'0
casks, "one sett of Iyron wedges, -
two suits of ''close" and small
triffies" All the wills begin with a.
redundance of phraseology, somewhat
like the following, which in the orig
inal is totally without punctuation.
II, Josias Clapham of Fairfax
county, am sick aud weary of body,

How 1t Feels TO Be Struck by Light
ming.
Springfield, Mass, Republican.

Curtis B. Wells, of this city, has
received a letter from Henry M. Burt,
detailing the editors experience with
lightning. Mr.. Burt certainly had a
narrow escape. He writes.
A little after o'clock Saturday
night I was In my Office Gn the old
Summit House on Mt. Washington, ;,
and had just given directions to Oar
by about making up a form, when all
at once | felt tremendous blow in
the back. I could not imagine at first
what caused it, but instantly thereaf-
ter [ saw ball of fire as large as
mans head directly in front of me,
not three feet off. It exploded with
tremendous noise, seemingly as loud
as a cannon, and then l knew what
must have happened My left leg
seemed to be completely paralyzed,
and [ fell to the floor Three of my
printers were in the room at the time,
two sitting at the table near me and
one standing up little further Off
The latter had the skin on one hand
torn up, another was hit in the back,
and the third escaped without injury
At first [ felt as though ball had
gone through my body, and that all
below had been shot away. was
startled and confounded, but did not
lose consciousness. The young man
who could get out of the office ran to
the hotel, the Summit House, and told
what had happened. Help came i'm
mediately, and [ was removed to my
room in the hotel and undressed. DR..

death, and for one [ do not care to go
through another experience like 1t.
AS the storms are all, or most of them
below the summit, we have very little
fear of being struck by lightning. In
fact, for thirty years no one has been
hurt, or had such a narrow escape
from death 1t is an old saying that
lightning never strikes twice in the
same place, and | am sure | do not
care to have it We were all the more
surprised from that until the bolt
came in we had no idea of the pres
ence of an electric storm 1t had be
gun to rain little, but there had
been no flashes of lightning. 1t was
as startling as it would have been to
get clap of thunder out of clear
sky. You have probobly heard of the
impression of tree being found upon
the bodies of those killed by light
ming The same thing was noticed
upon my back, and as there are no
trees on Mt. Washington, it seems to
me that the peculiar appearance must
be the resu 1t of the blood settling in
the smaller veins.

HOLLY TREE INN.
Officers Elected-Encouraglng Report OF
the Inn by the Secretary.

At a recent Meeting of the Holly Tree Inn
Association the following directors were
elected to serve for the ensuing year: Glenn
ent b. Smyth, DR.. L. p. Bush, George w.
Stone, Thomas Worrall, E. Bringhurst, Jr.,
Miss Emma Worrall, Mrs E. G. Wollaston,
DR.. Florence P. Stubbs, Miss NJ. R. Bring
hurst, Mrs. G. w, Stone, Mrs. C. B. Smyth.
The following is the report of the secre-
tary, Mrs. Kate G. Stone: The managers of
the Holly Tree Inn Association offer their
ninth annual report for the year ending
September, 1888, to the subscribers,
having nothing of special import
ance to impart, but feeling assured
that the inn is doing a good work In the
community. There have been periods of
discouragement for the managers, but at
present the prospect is encouraging for the
coed that we hope is to be done during the
coming winter. The inn was more largely
patronized during the months of July and
August, the smallest month being February,
the number of meals served during July,
the largest month, being 9,340, and In Feb
ruary 4,405, independent of the meals for
the required help An average of 1000
loaves of bread $50 quarts of milk are used
each month. One has but to walk to the
lower end of Market street to feel the need
of earnest, practical work in the tenn
perauce cause The establishment of the
Holly Tree Inn closed one place of tempta-
tion and we earnestly hope our friends,
having the Friendly Inn at heart. will sue
ceed in establishing it where they feel it
most needed; but there is also positive
need for public work house for the accom-.
modution of the class of people who are be-
yond the reach of so excellent an institution
MS the Holly Tree Inn Association. The inn
Is for people who respect themselves, and
we need workhouse to force a certain class
of people to respect the community at large
and the laws of that community; then the
inn would have fewer discouragements. We
would be pleased to have the stockholders
visit the inn at any time and see for them
selves the good that we feel is being done
by the association"

The Imitation Maid of the Mist Again
Launched in the Niagara Vortex.

BUFFALO, Oct. 10.-The Maid of the Mist
has again dared the fury of the Niagara
Rapids. At 2,40 O'Clock to-day she was
towed into the centre of the stream above
the old suspension bridge and cast adrift.
The boat had been shorn of the patent med
icine inscriptions which disigured her In the
previous trip, and her paddle boxes simply
bore the name, Maid of the Mist. About
5000 people gathered on the bluffs of the
river to witness the perilous trip. Previous
to the Maids departure sailboat was cut
loose, but ran ashore just above the raj ids.
The steamer rode the irst huge rapid In gal
liant style, but was nearly submerged by the
second. Recovering from the shock she
forged ahead and although terribly tossed
and buffeted reached the Whirlpool in safety.
The trip Of over a mile occupied exactly
three minutes. When the Maid reached tho
whirlpool she was drawn into the centre,
and at last accounts was lying there at the
mercy of the waters. On her previous trip
she remained in the pool but 15 minutes.
Just before she started two men attempted
to board her with the intention of making
the journey. They were rnceremoniously
pulled from the boat

CRIMINALS AT LARGE.
EXTENSIVE JAZZ DELIVERY AT
LANCASTER;
TWELVE CoNVICTs ESCAPE.
The WRtchman of tho Lancaster Prison
OverpOwered and an Escape Effected
A Daring Plan Well Executed.

LANCASTER, Oct. 10.-Twelve of the long
term convicts made their escape from the
Lancaster County Prison between and
O'Clock this evening. They locked the night
watchman in cell and then took possession
of the keys and walked out of the front
door. At the time DR.. Sample, one Of the
watchmen, was in cell having his hair cut
by convict, and amos Lutz, the other
watchman, was walking in the corridor.
Ike Buzzard, who occupied cell No. 81,
called to LutE and asked him to pass bird
and cage from his cell to that of his brother
Abe, which was on the opposite side of the
corridor. Lutz opened the cell and took
the bird across. As soon as he unlocked
Abe's cell Ike ran across, pushed him in
and locked the door. He then took posses
sion of the keys and unlocked the cells of
all the prisoners that he desired to liberate.
After getting out the men went to cell No.
9, which is use by the officers, and took q
number OF guns, pistols and knives. Then
the returned to the cell of Abe Buzzard and
liberated him, keeping the watchman back
by holding the weapons to his head. After
locking the door of the cell in which the
other watchman was and threatening the
prisoners who were In the cells with death
In case they made an alarm they coolly
| walked to the large iron door in the front of
| the prison, which they unlocked and made
| their escape. Persons passing the prison
saw the convicts running away and quickly
gave the alarm. 1t was found that the tel
ephone wire connecting the prison with the
station house had been cut and it was some
| time before word could be sent down town.
Among those who escaped are some cf the
( most desperate men in the country, and as
| they are well armed they will not be taken
| without great difficulty. Their names are
| as follows John Frankford, the notorious
| one-eyed horse thief, serving a sentence of
| 10 years, who was but recently returned
| from Chester county, where he was recap
/ tured and convicted on IA charges of horse
/ stealing; It'd Brimmer, John Wertz and
Alexander Leaman, who were the leaders
of the gang of fire bugs in this city and
were serving terms of 16, 10 and
four years, respectively; Abe and Ike
Buzzard, leaders of the notororious Welch
Mountain gang, who were sentenced to 13
and 10 years; Morris Bricker, Joe Croft,
William Clark, Edward Beck, George Wat
kins and John Clifford, five year tenn bur-
glars. OF this party the Buzzards, Frank
ford, Croft and Bricker escaped In May,
| 1889, but were rearrested in different parts
of the country. There is great excitement
in this city and the surrounding country is
full of officers and others in search of the

he has thought OF it."

CRY OF "FRAUD."

COLUMBUS, Oct. 10.-It is just learned
that the Republicans are advised of the most
fragrant frauds in the counting at Cincin-
natl and elsewhere. Governor Foster,
Speaker Keifer and others hastened to Gin
cinnati by q special train to night in response
to call and there is great flutter among
the leaders. Members of the State Com.
mittee are Fastening to different points and
at Democratic State headquarters the leaders
are alarmed, and there is conference over
the situation. They claim that the delay in
counting was intended for cheating by the
Republicans.
The indications are that there will be some
candidates go to the penitentiary and per
haps lot of accomplices, and that the worst
political complication ever known has beer
brought about. The Republicans claim thai
they carried Hamilton county and that 8
deliberate scheme was concocted at Cincin

At this time of the year men
generally make provision to
buy their heavy Boots, but as
the season has been backward
they have been holding off.
There is where they make a
serious mistake, as by buying
now, when the stock is un-
broken and while there is no
demand tor heavy work, they
are able to make better bar
gains. Those in need of water
proof or heavy calt-skin Boots
will find just what they want
in this line at
