COMPLIMENT TO STAUNTON MAN.
The New York Tribune of January LIST
has the following, in which it will be seen
reference is made to a former Staunton
physician, DR.. J. Newton McChesney. It
gives US great pleasure to state that on the
day the 1fibune's article appeared the
Board Of Health met and DR.. McChesney
was reinstated. The Tribune says:
Outside of President Shaler office great
disappointment was felt in the Health
Department yesterday In regard to the
changes among the officers. Five sanitary
inspectors, including some of the oldest
and best men in the Sanitary Bureau, had
received notices of dismissal. They were
Charles F. Roberts. Charles E. Lockwood.
Charles P. Russell, George F. Morris and
j. E. Stillwell. DR.. Roberts had been Id
the service of the present department
since its present organization. DR.. Morris
has been regarded as one of the most
learned and best trained of the inspectors.
and bis opinion in cases of contagion has
been unyarying in its correctness. 1t was
announced also that Assistants Sanitary
Inspectors Cowl, Hochheimer and Nc
Chesney had been dismissed. Perhaps no
act Of the Board Of Health ever caused
more regret among the officers in the SAM
tary Bureau than the discharge Of DR..
McChesney. For more than year DR..
McChesney has been intrusted with the
Investigation of the most dangerous cases
of contagious diseases. Several times his
quickness IN recognizing typhus fever and
smallpox. when other physicians thought
the patients were suffering from less seri-
Gus complaints, has saved the city from
epidemics. AS an expert, therefore, he
was regarded as invaluable; and the opin-
ion was expressed freely yesterday that 1t
would be long time before man could
be found to fill bis place.

Mexican Veterans.

Last Tuesday, thlrty-seven years ago,
Capt. Harper's company left Stanton for
the seat of war in Mexico. There were sc
men rank and file in the company. Twelve
hundred soldiers went to Mexico from
Virginia during the war. The whole U.
8. army numbered 70 00O At the reunion
of the veterans last month in Washington
there were 400 present and only seven from
Virginia. Two Of these were from Staun-
ton-Msj. Jas. b. Dorman and Mr.. Will
liam Skeen. These gentlemen enjoyed
greatly the meeting with their old COM
rades, which lasted during three days
winding up with grand banquet.
One of the speakers in referring to the
substantial results of the Mexican war to
the United States, said that averaging
every one of the $4,000 soldiers as weigh.
ing 140 pounds. the gold and silver taken
out of the territory acquired by the wal
weighs more than the soldiers did. Mr..
Skeen now wears, as memento of the re-
union. handsome gold badge in the
shape Of shield, with the names Of the
battles around the margin, pretty dia.

President, we're graciously received, and
went through the usual handshaking.
It is believed by the Mexican veterans
now numbering some 10000 or 600 sur
vivors, that they will be psnsioned BY the
present Congress, and If 80, each man will
receive about $500 down and 500 year
during life.

The Cold Snap and the Snow.

The cold snap in this section came along
on Friday last. when, after a remarkably
''open winter" the mercury suddenly
rushed down to- degrees, a stiff wind
blowing from the northwest at the same
time. On Saturday morning it tried to
snow, and busted little, but 1t was too
cold and it gave it up. Monday night it
tried again with better success and be-
fore Tuesday night twelve inches ofit had
fallen. All over the country the mercury
tried to get down out Of sight. In the
far West it was far worse than in the
East. In Omaha, Nebraska, the mercury
went down to $50 below, and in Dakota II
registered 4so below.
This cold spell was almost q duplicate
of one that came on January LIST, two
years ago. In that year, Jan. !, 1881, the
snow fell to the depth of thirty inches and
the birds were thinned out very much
The mercury fell to 90 below zero, and in
some places in Stanton it was reported
at 50 below. Seven sleighs loaded with
produce arrived in Stanton from Pen
dleton county, W. Va, with three drivers
badly frozen. In 1889 there was similar
spell in this section, and the snow which
fell in December remained on the ground
until the following February.
