A Good Word to Uncle Sam Ivans

EDITORS COMET The appearance
on our desk this morning of the
Athens Post, awakens old and pleasant
memories, and makes lis go back to
our boyhood days; to old Athens,
around which cluster a million pleas
ant memories, and we live our life
over again in the flash Of few mo-
ments. Time has not estranged our
heart, and while we count the sunshine
and the shadow of our past, We must
exclaim, we lQye the past, the people
know no change. Pure and good
hearted men, men of lofty, enobling
instincts and in whose breasts are
none but warm and genuine impulses
deserve to be loved and revered
Such an one was Will B. McKeldin

A Young Virginia Desperate.

LYNCHBuRG Va, March 28--In
Roanoke County several days ago Les
ter Lavender, sixteen years of age,
attempted to rob a farmer named
Alexander Owens, living eight miles
from Salem, and in order to accom-
plish his purpose shot Owens in the
back while he was repairing his fences.
The wife OF the victim, hearing the
shot, ran out to ascertain the cause
when Lavender shot her in the breast
inficting terrible wound. He then
tried to murder Owens mother but
she escaped and alarmed the neigh
bors. The boy then fled to the woods
and sought the protection of Matt
Bandy, relative, who refused to shell
ter him. Lavender then went to Ban
dy's stable and stole horse on which
he escaped to Montgomery County
where he abandoned the animal HI
is thought to have escaped into Frank
lin County. Both Owens and his wife
will probably die.

THE NEWEST SHOW AND
THE BIHGEST.
-. sH. barrett a. Co.'S New Uni.
ted Monster Railroad shows.

This newest as well as most colossal
OF all amusement enterprises will posi-
lively exhibit at Johnson City on
April 18th.
1t is the best advertised show that
has ever been announced here. Not
only are its bright and costly pictorals
displayed on every side for miles and
miles around, and its illustrated news
paper and programmes scattered like
snow flakes, but there is a solid, en-
phatic style in its manner of present.
ing its claims which commands atten-
ton and begets confidence. 1t is con-
spicuous for not INDUCING in the stale,
dishonest aggregation" alliance"
combination" and "twelve-shows-in
one" clap-trap, which has always prov
ed delusion and snare, and involves
such preposterous claims as to utterly
discredit itself with all except the
greenest fools. On the contrary, it
assumes only to be one new and great
show, which is the best of reasons for
believing it to be so. Neither does it
resort to manufactured names and
purposely-mixed and vague generali-
ties and figures, in order to convey
the swindling Impression that it has
rare attractions, which, in fact, have
no honest existence.
It's attractions are multifarious as
well as novel, and it is a matter of
surprise how many strictly new feat
ures can be crowded in single exhi-
bition. Zebras broken to perform in
credible feats, housekeeping reindeer
girafies harnessed to Roman racing
chariots, Hariman's steam air-ship in
operation, a man-sized riding cyno-
cephalus, elks harnessed tandem, ten
funny clowns in simultaneous rivalry
high and long-distance double somer.
sault leapers, peerless exploits in the
gymnasium, extraordinarily trained
thoroughbred horses, comical school o.
monkey comedians, monster living
White Nile Hippopotamus, extraordi
nary feats OF herculean strength, deed,
of masculine and feminine intrepidity
and, in fact, so great an array of nov
elites and surprises thatit would tran
scend the limits OF newspaper motto,
to give them even the briefest men
ton. The street parade is eommensu
rate in magnitude and grandeur Will

One Hundred Dollars for Husband

Mrs. Storms of 1878 Third avenue
has sued Mrs. Rubcns of Seventy
fourth street and Second avenue for
500 for providing husband for Mrs.
Rubenss daughter Rachael. Mrs.
Stern, who is the wife Of butcher,
swore before Justice Mcneil that Mrs.
Rubens sent for her and told her that
she wished to have Rachael married,
and that she would give 800 if Mrs.
Storms would find nice young man.
Mrs. Storms mentioned Hermann
Gurahuer, and Mrs. Rubens said.
Fetch him around" Mrs. Storms
took the young man around he suited
he and Rachael were married, and
Mrs. Rubens gave him $500 and set
him up in the liquor business at 1886
Third avenue. But Mrs. Rubens re-
fused TO pay Mrs. Storms 500.
Mrs. Rubens acknowledges giving
her son-in-law $500 and setting him
up in businers, but denies the contract
with Mrs. Stems, Decision is pend
ing.

THE SACRED ELEPHANT.

Carl Schurz stroked his beard and
through pair Of goggles eyed the
three Nautch girls of the Barnum
show this morning. The girls were
too dark to blush, but they hid their
brown faces in the tails of the collored
mosquito bar stuff that they used as
drapery, and waited until Mr.. Schurz
passed on to the sacred white elephant
on the floor below.
The Legitimacy Of the white ele-
plant had been questioned and Mr..
Barnum and his partners had assem-
bled to prove that the expensive pro-
boscidian was all that his owners and
their agents claimed. The sacred
beast stood upon platform and about
him were golden troughs, trays, UNI
brellas, gongs, and ornaments. Under
the valuable brute were Turkish rugs
and he was backed by hangings OF
Persian carpets and velvet mats.
Among the visitors were Carl Schurz,
Colonel d. b. Sickels, Professor A. S.
Vickmore, Professor J. b. Hulder
Professor r. Ogden Doremus, Professor
H. s. Chandler, DR.. Lewis r. Sayre
Rev. DR.. 7. s. Drown, John Fowler

Austin Flint, Jr., Professor E. S

Burkhard, Jerome Buck and Henry C
Bowen.
The sacred beast has pinky-whit,
face, mottled ears, light-colored back
beautiful tusks, pretty toe-nails and 1
skin that for softness is like the fines
kid. He was guarded by Indians, VIII,
played weird music upon the strang
est of instruments. This mesic wa
one of the most attractive features o
the entertainment. The sacred ele
plant is exceedingly docile. Will
he was being examined by the scien
fists Mr.. Barnum called attention t
the Buddhist priests who guard tn
elephant and announced that tn
pachyderm in question was the onl
one of its kind ever brought to thi
country. Mr.. Barnum declared tina
} all white elephants but his were in
posters. One hundred and thirty-on
, professors and scientists signed state
ment to the effect that this was gel
uine sacred elephant.
