tei. nvbes. EVERY,
Of Virginia, Fresident Of the Farmers
Congress.

Col. Robert Beverly, who was re-
Gently elected at Louisville, President
o. the Farmers Congress of the United
States, is fine type of the "old V'r-
ginia gentlemen He was born in
Fauquie, County. Virginia, in 1922
His ancestors date backto King John
Of England and his family for suc-
icessive reigns held high Office under
the British Government, The first
to imnigrate to America was Robert
Beverly, who came over in 1858 and
settled in Middlesex (uow Essex
County, Va, on the Rappahannock
River. He was a tobacco planter and
Clerk o. the House of Burgesses. He
was the intimate friend of Governor
Spottswood and wrote The first eff
cial letter on the subject OF agriculture
ever written in this country. His
son Robert Beverly wrote the first
history of Virginia. All Of the
Beverly, have been farmers, and it
is little remarkable that the address
recently published by Col. Beverly to
the farmers of the United States was
written in the same house from which
his ancestor wrote to Governor Spotts
wood over 200 years ago. The hOuee
has 25 rooms and the halls are 35@by
70 feet. The brick were brought over
from England as ballast in ships com.
ihg for tobacco. 1t was-settled 200
years ago and the place contains
$500 acres of land. II has passed
through the hands Of FIVE Robert
Beverlys and two VIM. beverlys, the
present owner making the sixth. The
place is known as "Blendfeld" and
IS owned now by Robert, the son OF
Col. Beverly. The Col. lives in Eau
quier, on farm which he inherited,
and he has in all fifteen farms for
distribution among his children and
grand, children. BE began farming
on his OWL account when Sand mar
ried when 20 years Of age. he has
been. like all his ancestors, a farmer
and nothing else. He has never been
a candidate for any political station,
and would accept no Office. We would
exces t the Office of Governor of the
Old Dominica, for what nat We Of that
grand old commonwealth could re-
fuse? While he has refu ed al OF
fees of profit, he has been prominent
as member of the State ExecuLlvs
Committee Of the Democratic party CT
College Trustee Railroad
Director and a member Of the State
Agricultural Society. At one time
he was cotton plau:er in Mareugo
County, Alabama. but he disposed OF
it in 1851. He now grasses i 300
head of cattle on his Virginia farms;
When he does not get satisfactory
prices in his own home markets h
ships to Liverpool sgg&
His election to the Presidency of
The Farmer Congress ct Louisville
was evidently surprise and muat
have been very gratifying, when. it is
remembered that he has spent the,
best years of his lifein advocating the
farmers sinterest. He is a man Of
commanding address.is thoroughly in
on allpnbaic qnestio1s and
speaks with remarkable fluency and
ease. All who met him were charmed
by bis bold and earnest manner, and
the conviction forced itself upon all
that he WAS the man to elect es Presl-
dent. His first address TO the farmers
shows that the right man W selected
for the right place.

A Lively Running Fight With
Utes.
Preparing to Receive Greedy
and His Party.
The Democrats Getting Ready
For the Campaign.
Lo Still Lively.

DENVER, July 24.-Durango is greatly
excited to-day over the arrival of Red
Jacket with forty warriors, highly painted
and heavily armed. The City Marshal
arrested one for disturbance and carrying
firearms. He was knocked down by the
other Indians. The Indians then mounted
their horses and started to leave town.
Several citizens and cattlemen gave chase.
A running fight was kept up for two
miles when the Indians succeeded in get
ting out of range. Some twenty shots
were fred by both sides. No one was in
jured as far as known. The citizens have
asked for troops to keep the Indians on
their reservation and away from town.
The cattlemeu of Southern Colorado are
very indignant over the late losses of cat
tie, horses and the burning Of their camp
ing outfits. A general war will be com
menced between them aud the Indians
unless something is speedily done to pro-
tect their interests from the thieving
bands of Utes.

All members or proxies were present. A

there are s~eventy-eight Congressional dis

HOW THEY RECEIVED THE NEWS
scenes From the Home Life Of the
Presidential Candidates.

From the Chicago News.
1t is very touching to hear tell of the
indifference with which Grover Cleveland
received the intelligence that he was
nominated, yet these great men of
modern times are seldom moved by those
things which throw common intellects off
their bases or out of plumb. When the
news Of his nomination was brought to
James G. Blaine, the great statesman
was sitting at his supper table.
What means this noisy intrusion ?"
he demanded, looking up from his but
tered toast and broiled herring.
You've been nominated for Presi-
dent" h~oarsely replied the painting
courier.
Don't you know better than to inter
rupt me at my mealH" calmly ~rejoined
Mr.. Blaine; another cup Of tea, please, -
Equally unimpassioned was John A
Logan's remark when his wife came softly
to his side a week after his nomination
and said:
John, dear, l have something on my
mind l want to tell you.
what is it, my love?" inquired the
Illinois statesman, looking YEARLY VI
from his Greek poem.
You have been nominated for Vice
President, my dear" said she.
"0h, is that all p said he. II thought

The first hour and a half of the even
ing session was spent in an amusing effort
on the part of the finance committee to
raise campaign funds. The plan adopted
was to issue certificates on stock, in what
is called the Pioneer Cattle fund IN the
National Prohibition party, the holder of
each share pledging himself to pay $40 a
year to the fund, dividends to be payable
in heaven. Mr.. Christian, of Chicago,
acted as an auctioneer broker, and by his
amusing remarks cajoled delegates from
the various states to subscribe for from
one to fifty shares each The whole mum
Der of shares taken aggregated about 400.
The name of the party vas changed to
the Prohibition party.
George P. Rogers, of Connecticut
William Daniel, of Maryland; Clinton

WARRINGTON, July 24.-The chief

relatives in each case may select for the

of the relatives cannot be paid by the
government
